1 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: This is the Patriots Catch twenty two podcasts with Evan 2 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: Lazar and Alex Bars, Bizarre and Lazarre. 3 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 2: He everybody nailed it, joined us always by our bark. 4 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 2: Here is Evan Lazar and Alex Bars. So starting with 5 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 2: the defensive line, we always joke about this. You get 6 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 2: into the weeds of what's a defensive lineman? What's an 7 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: edge defender? Do you even like the term edge defender? 8 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 2: Now you hate it? 9 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 1: Who? This year Madden put it in the game. 10 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 2: I figured since Mad, since Madden put it into the. 11 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: Game, that's why not. 12 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: Because I've been telling you it exists for like five years. 13 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: But now that it's in Madden, it's finally on your roster. 14 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 2: I'll tell you honestly why I did it. And this 15 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: is how I've always felt about edge. I think where 16 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: edge is when you go through the draft. There are 17 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 2: guys that, depending on what team drafts them and what 18 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: system they'll be playing in, do you have to call 19 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: them an edge because you don't know. The thing that 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: always bugged me is once they're on a team, you 21 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: know what position they're playing because you can put them 22 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 2: in that system. 23 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: So it makes it a little clearer. But we don't 24 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: exactly know how this Vrabel system is going to use 25 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: certain guys, So this might be one year thing for me. 26 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: I might go back next year when we have a 27 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: better look at this defense. But for the time being, 28 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: it can go either way. So I felt, why I 29 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: use it? This year? 30 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: We are back. Football is back. I am back, the 31 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 2: show is back. Everything's back. This week. I love it. 32 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 2: I love it. Patriots football. Can we say officially unofficially? 33 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. 34 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: First day of training camp. So Patriots football. 35 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: Is we do this like four or five times a year. 36 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: We will try not to do this. I know we 37 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: do it for this. We do it the preseason opener, 38 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: we do it for the opener, and then we do 39 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: it for the home opener Hall of Fame game. Well, 40 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: there's like football. Okay, So here's the thing. There's two 41 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: Football's back, which is today, especially now that what is 42 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: this now three or four years the league has done 43 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 1: this where every team starts the same day. Used to 44 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: be kind of scattered. Yeah, the Hall of Fame team 45 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: started a little bit. But there's two Football is back days. 46 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: There's three. There's today, which is football is back. There's 47 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: football is back on TV, which is the Hall of 48 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: Fame game, and then I'll give you another Football's Back 49 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: for week one. 50 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: I would say, there's in my mind, there's two. Football 51 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: is back. Today is definitely football is back training camps 52 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 2: like that's the meat and potatoes at the end of the. 53 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: I would saying to people the other day, it was like, 54 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: I'll foot like practice starts tomorrow. I'll see you again 55 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: on April twenty sixth exactly, which is the day after 56 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: the third round of the draft. 57 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 2: Of course you would know that already. But anyways, we're back. 58 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 2: Football is back. We're gonna be breaking down the Patriots 59 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 2: first day of training camp of the twenty twenty five 60 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 2: season with you for the next couple of hours. We 61 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: were late because of Alex. It's Alex fault. 62 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 3: He was late. 63 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 2: I was ready to go. You had to be a 64 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 2: little bit delayed because you had your your big sports 65 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: I told you there's. 66 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: Gonna be too. Ten to twelve. I was on with Zoe. 67 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: I think Zoe, it's somewhere to go to. Zoe was 68 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 1: very instant. We had a good ninety five Sports of 69 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: YouTube channel, me and zo of a practice breakdown up there. 70 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 2: Very good. So uh, that's why We're a little bit 71 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 2: of a late uh tip off here, so apologize for that, 72 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: but this is probably gonna be just some bookkeeping. This 73 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: will probably be our time slot barring any unforeseen practice 74 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: conflicts in terms of scheduling for training camp, So at 75 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 2: least for the next let's call it a month or so, 76 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 2: we're probably going to be here in this two to 77 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: four time slot. Once football tells us what the end 78 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: season schedule is going to look like come September, we'll 79 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: adjust or not adjust. Hopefully we can leave it here, 80 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: but if we have to adjust again and we will 81 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: adjust again. So that's uh, that's the housekeeping items there. 82 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: So thanks for holding on with us here for this 83 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: little bit of a late start, but we're good to 84 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: go now, and uh the page, it's are good to go. 85 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 2: Day one of camp. Nice day, beautiful day out there. 86 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: We had dogs everywhere. I'm sure you love that, Alex. 87 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: You know Jess was asking me to adopt a dog 88 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: and bring. 89 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 90 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're mostly mostly puppies. But that was a great event. 91 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 2: And I know the Stefan Diggs clip of him chasing 92 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 2: the dog around has gone viral. We're gonna talk a 93 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 2: lot about Stefan Diggs. Today, I want to start off 94 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 2: with two things. One, we we have to throw the 95 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 2: caveat out there that we we saw one ninety minute practice, 96 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: non padded that had two team drill sessions. So we 97 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: saw Drake may drop back to pass nine times today. 98 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 2: So this was not exactly a high sample size. Next week, 99 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 2: a week from now, we'll have a much larger sample 100 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: size to work with where we can talk a lot 101 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 2: about everything that goes into this. Now we have a 102 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 2: show to do today, so we're still gonna tell you 103 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: everything that we saw. 104 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: We just take it with that learned today. It's not 105 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: to sday. Today's practice was entirely irrelevant if you call 106 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,679 Speaker 1: in asking like if we think Will Campbell looked competitive today? 107 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 1: Like that, you know, we're gonna wait till pads come on. 108 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: But right there was stuff that definitely things take away 109 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: from today. 110 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: So the other bookkeeping item house keeping item that I 111 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 2: wanted to get to, which I think is really probably 112 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: the most important thing this time of year on day 113 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 2: one is attendance and who was and wasn't present yep 114 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: for this practice. So the good news for the Patriots 115 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: in terms of the NFI list Carlton Davis no longer 116 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 2: on NFI. He was a full participant. It seemed like 117 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: today in practice. So you had Carlon Davis opposite Christian 118 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: Gonzalez for the majority of practice today during eleven on 119 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: elevens and what we did see of eleven on elevens. 120 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: So Carlon Davis good to go. Off the list. The 121 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: guys that remain on the list that I have PUP, 122 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 2: Austin Hooper, Verderian Lowe. They remain on PUP. That means 123 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: Jelanie Devai also off PUP. Right, So Carlon Davis, Jalani 124 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: Deva good to go. Josh Minkin's the undrafted rookie. He 125 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: remains on NFI. And then the two guys that you 126 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: have to get some clarity on one of them. We 127 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 2: were trying to kick it out three well, Jalen Polk Collins. 128 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: Did you say Hooper and law Yeah, pay yep. So 129 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 2: Jalen Polk was a straight absence like Jalen Polk. Oh, 130 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 2: he was present? Yeah, d m P I should is 131 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: I think a better way. 132 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: To you know, I would say he did not participate 133 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: in practice. He did not participate in practice, but he's 134 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:37,239 Speaker 1: not on. He is not on a list, so that's 135 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: just an absence. Matt Collins was here but was not participating, 136 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: but he was on the field in a uniform, but 137 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: not in full uniform. So this is gets into all 138 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: the technicalities of is that off up not off up? 139 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 1: The most important thing to know about Matt Collins is 140 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: he also did not participate. So your two d MPs 141 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: were Jalen Polk and Mac Collins. I think he's still 142 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: on I because he wasn't wearing shoes like when you 143 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: say in uniform. He was in sweats just like he 144 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: was offspring, but he had the jersey kind of rolled 145 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: up over the sweatshirt. He was not wearing shoes. He 146 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: did not have a helmet. To me, that amounts to 147 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: because we last year when like Pop was on PUP, 148 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: he'd come out in you know, the tank top and 149 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: shorts and just kind of hang around right to me, 150 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: it was that and somebody probably told him, Hey, when 151 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: you do that, you can't wear a jersey. So I'm 152 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: gonna guess he's still on PUP. 153 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: I'm going to guess he's still on PUP too. That's 154 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: my understanding of PUP is that until you actually get 155 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: in on a drill and you were actually running a 156 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: drill and taking a rep in practice, actually stretching going 157 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: through the beginning party. 158 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: I think Cole Strange came out in his uniform last 159 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: year too, didn't he When he would come out, I 160 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: think he had a jersey on. 161 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: So the biggest thing to me, as far as I 162 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 2: know about PUP is that you have to have at 163 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: least actively participated in a portion of practice. It might 164 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: just be stretching, but you have to do something you can't. 165 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 2: What Matt Collins was doing was was a whole lot 166 00:07:59,440 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: of nothing. 167 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: So you say, just like you was in spring, he's 168 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: kind of hanging around, he's talking to guys, right, so, 169 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,239 Speaker 1: but he didn't he didn't even stretch. That was confusing 170 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: that he was out there for stretch. 171 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: So basically the guys that did not participate in practice 172 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: just a wittless all down. So it's not as confusing 173 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: as I just made it. Jalen Polk, Mac Collins, Austin Hooper, 174 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: Vederian Lowe, Josh Minkins. They remain out in some capacity, 175 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: whether it's on a list or not on the list, 176 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 2: whatever the case may be. So those guys remained out. 177 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: But I want to get to that in a second. 178 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 2: But I want to kind of start with the positive 179 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 2: here a little bit if we can. The biggest takeaway 180 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 2: I had from today, and the biggest positive for the 181 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: Patriots is that Stefan Diggs is a full go and 182 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 2: looked great. Yeah, and Steffon Diggs caught the very first 183 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: pass of practice. You're probably gonna hear that a lot 184 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: over the next twelve hours until we have another practice. 185 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: Very first eleven on eleven two a practice. 186 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: Or twelve they say, twelve twenty four, I'll come. 187 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: I'll come for two A in practice. 188 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 2: I know you would field the very very first play 189 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty five Patriots training camp, the first live rep. Well, 190 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 2: I'm going I'm going positive. I'll get to it. I'm 191 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: going positive. 192 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: This was after a fall start. But if it's I'm 193 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: not worrying, it's more remoses. I'm not worried. 194 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 2: The very first rep that actually counted was a Drake 195 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 2: may pass completion, just Stefon Diggs on a shallow crossing 196 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 2: route coming over the middle of the field, and the 197 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: crowd erupted. It was one of those moments where when 198 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 2: you signed Stefan Diggs in March. Those were the types 199 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: of plays and the types of passes that you envisioned 200 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: Stefon Diggs and Drake may connecting on when you made 201 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 2: the signing and right out of the shoot, they wasted 202 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: no time. They already got on the board. Digs caught 203 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: a pass later on in practice as well, so he 204 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 2: looked very good. That's off and running. That connection is 205 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 2: off and running. I think that's huge. It's important this 206 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 2: time of year for those two guys to build that 207 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 2: chemistry and build that camaraderie and have it just be 208 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 2: second nature to throw to each other and to connect 209 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 2: with each other like that. So hopefully that's signs of 210 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 2: things to come. But they worked a lot on their 211 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 2: base offense. There are you know, first and second down 212 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: install today as a carryover from the spring. And on 213 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: that play, you know Diggs got the shallow then there's 214 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: like a deeper crossing route right behind it and you 215 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: call it like levels right and you know one two, 216 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: and it was just exactly how it's drawn up on 217 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 2: the whiteboard. You hit the underneath level based off the coverage, 218 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 2: get the ball out quickly. That was That was a 219 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 2: good sight to see, it's good to see Diggs out there. 220 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 2: He's a full go he said it after practice, and 221 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 2: he feels great. Very first play that gets off connects 222 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: right over the middle with Drake may on a crossing route, 223 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 2: so all systems go first to fon Diggs, which is 224 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: good to see. 225 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he he looks. I mean, week one is 226 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: a real conversation at this point. I don't know. It's 227 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: an unfair to call it the expectation. I mean, I'm 228 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: not a doctor, but. 229 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's out there full go unless he 230 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: has a setback, which is knock on what he doesn't 231 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 2: I don't see why. 232 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: And I mean the big thing, I think what people 233 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: don't understand it. It's he even said today he's still 234 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: kind of like working through it. 235 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 4: Right. 236 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 1: Is he gonna be one hundred percent for week one? 237 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: Exactly the guy he was last year in Houston. I 238 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: don't know physically if he's eighty percent of that guy, 239 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: he's still probably their best receiver. 240 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. 241 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: But the big thing about him being out there right 242 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: now and not just being out there, but taking part 243 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: in these full speed team drills. He's working on the timing, 244 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: he's working on the placement, all that. With Drake May, 245 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: he's building chemistry. And this was the thing with Kendrick 246 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: Bourn last year because he tore his acl you know, 247 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 1: he was on the same essentially clock obviously a year behind, 248 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: but same timeframe. And there remember they kind of said, 249 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: like Bourne probably could have played week one, but they 250 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: gave him those four weeks to get in like football shape. 251 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: So that's the difference. Born came in having not worked 252 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: in camp and so he had to get on the 253 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: same page. And then there was a quarterback change which 254 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: made it even tougher. But like Stefan Diggs's gonna be 255 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 1: on the same page with Drake May week one, So 256 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: even if he's not totally back physically yet, that will 257 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: do a good job of kind of helping close that gap. 258 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: That's what the biggest thing is to me is these 259 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: guys gonna be able to work together day in and 260 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: day out leading up to the season. That's the most 261 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: encouraging thing absolutely. 262 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 2: And I go back to a Brady quote on this 263 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: when one of our first years covering the team, Tom 264 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: Brady was talking about it was the year that Edelman 265 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: was coming back from the injury and then got suspended 266 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: and Edelman was finally coming back, right, Yeah, And Brady 267 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 2: was talking about how with Edelman he knew early on 268 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 2: in the route if Edelman was going to get open, 269 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 2: and just based off of how Edelman moves, like his 270 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 2: body language and his mannerisms and just the motion of 271 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: his body, he was able to just read it and 272 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: he could understand when Edelman was putting his weight on 273 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: this foot or you know, leading this way or leading 274 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 2: that way. He just knew second nature which way Julian 275 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: Edelman was going to break. Now that takes years and years, right, 276 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 2: I'm not saying Stevan Diggson and Drake Mayer are going 277 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 2: to do that already this season, but the things that 278 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 2: you're talking about is starting to build towards them. When 279 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs, you know, feels the defender inside of him, 280 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 2: where does Digs like the ball? Does he want it 281 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 2: back shoulder? Does he want it up? Does he want 282 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 2: you know? 283 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: Where? 284 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: Does he want Drake to throw it? Where? Does he want? 285 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: You know? 286 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 2: If he's you know, leading the one way, is he 287 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 2: faking or is he actually breaking that way? Like those 288 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: are the types of things that they can work out 289 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: this time of year and hopefully hit the ground running 290 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: come week one. But my excitement level is increasing rapidly 291 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 2: for Stefan Diggs in New England, like I am, really 292 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 2: I feel like I was reserved about it because of 293 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: the injury at first when they made the signing back 294 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 2: in March. I didn't want to get too over zealous. 295 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: He's thirty two years old, he's coming off of torn 296 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 2: acl He's already not necessarily like the big play guy 297 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: he was early on in his career. He's more of 298 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 2: a chain mover. I tried to be calm about the situation. 299 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 2: Now that he's a full goat for this first day 300 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 2: training camp, and he's making catches already from Drake May 301 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: in practice, and he looks a little different than some 302 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 2: of the other receivers that they have on this team, 303 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 2: or have had on this team the last couple of years. 304 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 2: I'm starting to get pretty jazzed up about Stefan Diggs 305 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: in New England. I really feel like there's no reason 306 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 2: to think that he can't be the guy he was 307 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 2: in Houston last year, which was on pace for one 308 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: hundred yard one hundred catches in two thousand yards. I 309 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: just don't see why we should have anything other than 310 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 2: that expectation, not to say, you know, not to set 311 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 2: him up for failure, but that's a great thing for 312 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 2: this team if it all goes to plan, right. 313 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we've been down this road so many times 314 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: the last ten and fifteen years with these receivers that 315 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: like you don't want to allow yourself to believe it. 316 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: But outside of that one, you know, he's been great. 317 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: He's been great. He's given you really everything you want 318 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: to look at you you're looking for, and a guy 319 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: that's coming in that situation, he's a thirty two year 320 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: old receiver or he's going to be thirty two, So 321 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: there's expectations that come with that. You know, you're not 322 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: getting the guy, like you said, not that big play 323 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: threat that he was in Buffalo early on, but we 324 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: know what a chain mover, how dangerous that guy can 325 00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: be in this offense, especially if some of these other 326 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: guys we can talk about what some of the other 327 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: receivers did today, if some of these other guys can 328 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: step up as the big play threats, and he's the 329 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 1: guy you're having to stay honest on underneath, like I 330 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: think he's in if if he's moving as well as 331 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: he is now throughout the season he's in a position 332 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: to thrive in that role. 333 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, And the last thing on Diggs, and then I 334 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: want to talk about some of those other receivers. And 335 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna compliment Sandwich this this recap of practice, 336 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: and then we'll get to all your phones and emails, 337 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: I promise, But I do want to have us talk 338 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: about practice and what we saw. First. The last thing 339 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 2: on Diggs seeing him in the role that they might 340 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 2: have in mind for him. I know everybody these days 341 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 2: gets caught up in X Z slot, like where is 342 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 2: he gonna play all these you know alphabet and all 343 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 2: that numb you know letters and things like that. I 344 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 2: don't know yet. It's one practice. I don't know yet 345 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 2: if he's gonna be the at the X or he's 346 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: gonna be at the Z, or whatever the case may be. 347 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 2: But some of the things that I did see that 348 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 2: he did that I was really excited about were some 349 00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 2: of those like short motions and things like that. They 350 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 2: bring him in closer to the formation and then he 351 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 2: releases off the line out of like a stack, a 352 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: two receiver stack that gives him that bubble of space 353 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 2: to get off the line of scrimmage and there's not 354 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 2: going to be press coverage in his way or anything 355 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 2: like that. And those are those little, you know, package 356 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 2: type plays that they used to run with Julian Edelman 357 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 2: or Wes Welker or Jacobi Meyers even a little bit 358 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: towards the end there with Brady in the mac Jones 359 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 2: zero like that. Those types of plays are a great 360 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: sort of just scheme for Josh McDaniels, Like they're very 361 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 2: successful scheme. And I really watch what they did with 362 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 2: Diggs today and what they did with him the little 363 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 2: bit that we saw in the spring, and I just 364 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 2: fully expect him to be that guy in this offense, 365 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 2: just like we've seen in the past out of that role. Now, 366 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 2: a lot of people call it a slot receiver. I 367 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 2: don't know if it's all a slot receiver role, Like 368 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 2: it depends on what you want to identify it at. 369 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: It's a little more involved, that's part of it. 370 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, but it's it's a hot it's the high 371 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: volume role in the offense. It is the straw that 372 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 2: stirs the drink of the offense. And that is who 373 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 2: he's going to be. And that to me is also 374 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 2: an exciting element to this because Josh McDaniels is going 375 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 2: to move him around, he's going to bring him in motion, 376 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 2: he's going to put him in positions where he is 377 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 2: going to be able to separate and create leverage, and 378 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 2: all those different types of things that allow receivers or 379 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 2: help receivers to get open off the line of scrimmage quickly. 380 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: And I can't emphasize enough, and I said this on 381 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 2: our show earlier, how just the weight off the quarterback 382 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 2: shoulders that happens when they have a receiver in their 383 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 2: arsenal that they can just trust and have confidence in 384 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 2: that is going to get open in high leverage situations 385 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 2: when it's third and five, when it's third and six 386 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: and the game is on the line. When you have 387 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 2: a guy that you go to the line of scrimmage 388 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: and you already feel like this is where the ball 389 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 2: is going, and I feel pretty good about this guy 390 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: getting open, the quarterback just kind of relaxes a little bit, 391 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 2: a real weight off the shoulders for a QB. And 392 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 2: I think Digs can be that for Drake, but I 393 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 2: also think Hunter Henry can kind of be that for 394 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 2: him as well. And so now maybe you actually have 395 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 2: two of those guys. Now we'll get to it, like 396 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 2: we'll talk about the big plays down the field and 397 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 2: the guys on the outside, Like that's still a major 398 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: question mark with this team, but they seem to have 399 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 2: two guys at this point that I'm starting to feel 400 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 2: more confident about that can just move the chains for 401 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: the offense and then hopefully the big plays will come 402 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 2: from elsewhere. 403 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 5: Yeah. 404 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: I to your point about the safety blankets though, and 405 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: I think we saw in the spring Drake made it 406 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: was a very safety blanket reliant on Hunter Henry and 407 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: then Pop Douglas. And there's nothing wrong with that in Spurts, 408 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: but something that was really encouraging to me for him 409 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: to day, Like you said, we only saw him drop 410 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 1: back nine times. He completed eight passes. Nobody had more 411 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,719 Speaker 1: than two catches. That was only two guys. It was 412 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: Stefan Digson, was Kytt Williams. He was spreading the ball today. 413 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: Everybody got a touch and that is paramount and the 414 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels offense. As much as people talk about that 415 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: slot guy being high volume role, and it is just 416 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: because this is a high volume offense, all five skill 417 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: position players need to be a threat to catch the 418 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: ball at any given time. You need to be able 419 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: to establish that with the defense in order for this 420 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 1: offense to work at the highest level. So you can 421 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: have your safety blankets, and obviously Brady had them, and 422 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: even mac Jones had his, and Cam Newton had his 423 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: that year, right, But they can't they can be safety blankets. 424 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: There's a fine line between them being safety blankets and 425 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: becoming overly reliant. You still got to prove that you 426 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: can get the ball to the other guys at times 427 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: to keep the defense honest. And look, again, they want 428 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: a training camp, right, But after a spring where it 429 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: was very highly concentrated to two or three guys, I 430 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: liked how Drake may spread the ball out today. 431 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good point now to complete the compliment 432 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 2: side of things. Yeah, the other guy that I thought 433 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 2: really stood out today and I'm sure you'll hear a 434 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: lot of headlines about him as well as Kyle Williams. 435 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 2: Got you just mentioned. So Kyle Williams third round pick. 436 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: Obviously the Patriots rookie first day of training camp, catches 437 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 2: two passes, makes two plays, caught a back shoulder fade, 438 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 2: an isolation on the backside against Christian Gonzales, which is 439 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 2: great to see you finished through some contact. 440 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: There as well as say he won a hand fight. 441 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: That was kind of my industry. 442 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's not contact this time. 443 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: No, it wasn't like a jump ball. It was a 444 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: comeback and they kind of got they kind of got 445 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: tied up at the top of the route and it's 446 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: one of those things like in a game. All right. 447 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: They both probably pushed a little bit, so you just 448 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 1: keep the flag in the pocket. And nothing was egregious. 449 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 1: But Kyle Williams between the hand placement all that won 450 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: the leverage and he created the separation to get the ball. 451 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 2: It's good to see him do that because that's not 452 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 2: necessarily his game and it's kind of the knock on him. Frankly. 453 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 2: If it doesn't work out for Kyle Williams in the league, 454 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: it's going to be because of strength at the catch 455 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,479 Speaker 2: point and being able to make those types of plays. 456 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 2: That was a standout play because of that. But the 457 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 2: other play that he made, the underneath crosser, he ran 458 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 2: right away from robertsplane like I was standing up the top. 459 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 2: We were doing our show and Roberts Blaine did not 460 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 2: have the angle on him like he was not catching him, 461 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 2: he was turning up the sideline, so you see those 462 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 2: catching runs. I like that play from Drake too, because 463 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 2: it seemed like he read the progression through and got 464 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: down to the checkdown. He kind of went, you know, 465 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: from deep to check down there on that play and 466 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 2: almost like a full field read and and Kyle Williams 467 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 2: is just on a shallow crosser underneath the formation there, 468 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 2: just won a foot race against Robert Splaine over the 469 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 2: middle of the field and turned up field and had 470 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 2: some yards after the catch on that play as well, 471 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 2: So you got a little bit of both. You got 472 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 2: him lining up on the outside on the backside against 473 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 2: Gonzo and making a play in some tight coverage, and 474 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 2: then you also had the wheels, you know, the burst 475 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: after the catch there too. 476 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: I still think though, just based off what we saw 477 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: today again early, we shall almost change that lower third 478 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: to just say again or disclaimer one practice, right, But 479 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: it kind of feels like you're setting up Kyle Williams 480 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: to be the X and maybe he's going to do 481 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: some not X type things from that spot. And we've 482 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: talked about this. Brandon Cooks deon Branch like it's happened 483 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: in McDaniel's offense before. But it does feel like they're 484 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: they're kind of lining things up for him to be 485 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: the X. 486 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 2: One. 487 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: Other standout catch, got to give credit to Kendrick Bourne. 488 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: It was a good probably at the catch of the day, 489 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: goes up over. It was Craig Woodson right, and it 490 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: was Josh Dobbs underthrew him. It shouldn't have been a 491 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: jump ball. It became a jump ball and just ripped 492 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: it away from got up the ladder, ripped it away 493 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,959 Speaker 1: from Woodson, held on through contact as he hit the ground. 494 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: Nice play, all right. 495 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 2: So that was all the positives, at least on the offense. 496 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: I think defensively today there wasn't a ton to glean 497 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 2: except for where guys are playing and Davis being out 498 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 2: there was good to see. But the compliment Sandwich, I'll. 499 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:48,959 Speaker 1: Just say this for the defense. Here's my one thing 500 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 1: with the defense, Like the speed thing is real. We 501 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: talked about them adding this speed and explosiveness on defense 502 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: and that felt like it was a focus this offseason 503 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: and they it looked like they did that. Like the 504 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: uh Harold Landry, Milton Williams, Robert Splane these guys are 505 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: flying around. Now. The question is we do this with 506 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: receivers all the time? 507 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 5: Right? 508 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: Does that speed still play when the pads come on? 509 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: So we'll see that in three or four days, whatever 510 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: it is. But no, they're I mean this, it looks different. 511 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: There's another level of explosiveness on this, specifically the front 512 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: the secondary they've always had. I mean, Devin mccordy's incredibly fast. 513 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: I was at speeding secondary the front like it's a 514 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 1: different It's so clearly a different prototype of player than 515 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: what we've seen here for a long time. And again 516 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: now it's just when the pads come on. We've talked 517 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: about this. The run defense is probably my big concern. 518 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: We're not going to get to see that for another 519 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: couple of days. But I liked what I saw today 520 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: in terms of the get off of the defense. 521 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: So that that would be the plus side was that 522 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 2: I thought the defensive front really controlled practice in this 523 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 2: game for a long portions of the team drills that 524 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: we did see. So you can take that one of 525 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 2: two ways. And I know people will, I know your 526 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 2: your station, will right your station? Will? 527 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: I don't care negative, I really don't care what happens 528 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,360 Speaker 1: up front until the pads come on good or bad. 529 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 2: I really don't care that's fair, but based off of 530 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 2: what we saw, because we have to talk about what 531 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: we saw today, it's all we can do. I don't 532 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 2: necessarily know where I stand with charting practice sacks because 533 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: I feel like practice it's so it's really hard to 534 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 2: determine whether or not it would truly have been a 535 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 2: sack or not. You don't know if he's going to 536 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: get the quarterback on the ground. It's live bullets and 537 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 2: you're just trying to watch it all and digest it 538 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: all without the benefit of reviewing the practice tape after 539 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: the fact. It's really hard to say sometimes if they 540 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 2: were truly sacks or not. But let's just call it 541 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 2: for what it was. There was pressure on the quarterback 542 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 2: when Drake May was out there. You Milton Williams, Keon White. 543 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 2: I saw Harold Andre Chason got on there, got in 544 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 2: there one time off the edge. There was probably four 545 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: or five times where the pocket broke down on the quarterback. 546 00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 2: And this is a conversation that we're not paid hit 547 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 2: againty panic buttons this early on. But I understand it's 548 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,400 Speaker 2: going to strike a nerve for some people because here 549 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 2: we go again, right with the offensive line and the 550 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 2: blocking up front. But I want to mainly talk about 551 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 2: not necessarily the results because like you said, no pads, 552 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 2: Like we'll get to the results as it is, but 553 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 2: there still seems to be some moving parts as we 554 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 2: expected on the interior of this offensive line, and this 555 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 2: to me really is where they could improve significantly the 556 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 2: upside of the line, and that is, you know, Jared 557 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 2: Wilson aren't getting some reps at center. And it's no 558 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 2: disrespect to Garrett Bradbury at all. He's a veteran player, 559 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 2: he's been around. If he's the starter come week one, 560 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 2: it makes sense. It's similar to like breaking in a 561 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: young quarterback, right You don't want to just throw Jared 562 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 2: Wilson to the Wolves right away. But Jared Wilson, it 563 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 2: was Garrett Bradbury got like the first round of reps 564 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 2: with Drake May and and then Jared Wilson got Drake 565 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 2: May's second time through in the team periods. So Jared 566 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 2: Wilson's at least starting to mix in. That's a positive 567 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 2: in my mind for sure, just because we didn't see 568 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 2: him at all in the spring really doing teams so 569 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 2: he's doing team now and he's already starting to mix 570 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 2: in a little bit at center. So the line, even 571 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 2: though it's much younger, in an experience, you do feel 572 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 2: like the talent overall elevates if Jared Wilson's the center 573 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 2: and not Garrett Bradberry. 574 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 1: Like I told you, I've been saying this since the draft. 575 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: I think he's in the conversation for week one, I do. 576 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: And what you saw today was a guy that that's 577 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 1: a battle. One guy went, then the other guy went, 578 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: and we're not at the stage where we're evaluating it. 579 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: I guess with centers, pads or no pads. You want 580 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 1: to look at the snaps. I didn't see any bad snaps. 581 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if I missed one, but. 582 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: Woolridge dropped one. But I don't think that. 583 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: Was That wasn't either of those guys. So okay, So 584 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 1: that's a real position battle. That's a competition. That's what 585 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: that is. One of those guys is going to start one, isn't. 586 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: They're both getting shots with top offense. The other three 587 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 1: spots or three of the other spots are relatively settled. 588 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: Morgan Moses was switch switching out. I think that's probably 589 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: load management as much as anything else. Now, it does 590 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: tell us to mantre Jacobs is probably the favorite to 591 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: be the backup right tackle, which makes sense when we 592 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: see Kayan Wallace working at guard as much as we 593 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: did today, and well, but that's on the right side. 594 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: Varian Low anyway, well we've seen him on the right side. 595 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: But you know, Cole Strange didn't rotate out, did he 596 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 1: with the tok room. 597 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 2: No, the top group, but you know, was pretty consistent 598 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 2: those scores just the center. 599 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: So maybe the battle may. I wouldn't be surprised if 600 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: Strange he gets competition at some point. That won't be 601 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: I don't think that'll be soon. I think that'll be 602 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: when the pads come on, if he starts to stumble 603 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 1: a little bit. But you know, four of those five 604 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: spots are set, and if Jared Wilson wins out, I 605 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: feel good about that. It's not going to be the 606 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: best offensive line in football, but it's not going to 607 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: be the worst either, And it's you know, I think, 608 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: probably somewhere closer to the middle, which if they can 609 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: get to average from where they were last year, there's 610 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: still work to do. But if they can get to 611 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: average in one offseason from historically bad. I think you 612 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: feel good about that, but no that I was telling 613 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: you that Jared Wilson one's going to be one to watch. 614 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: That kid can play. I know he's young and he's inexperienced. 615 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 1: He's incredibly athletic for that small spot. It's really smart. 616 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: Plays what he plays with a little bit of nasty, 617 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: which will help him. Kid can play. I'm excited to 618 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: see what he can do. 619 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: It's fun to think about some of the things that 620 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 2: they can do with him on the move as a center. 621 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 2: Like it's so he's a rare athlete for that position, 622 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 2: and when you have a rare athlete at the center position, 623 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 2: it just makes your entire line faster as a group. 624 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 2: And so the way that you can reach outside you know, 625 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 2: on a stretch player outside zone play, you know, if 626 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: he can overtake you know, someone in the a gap 627 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 2: or you know a three technique or something like that. 628 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 2: Like that's a hard block to make, but certain guys 629 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 2: that are explosive in ours athletic as he is, might 630 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: be able to make them. You know, talking about getting 631 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 2: him and like Will Campbell out in front of a screen, 632 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 2: right like those two guys in space that they can 633 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 2: chop guys down and they can cover ground and they 634 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 2: can do those different types of things toss plays, you know, 635 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 2: getting him up to the second level of the defense 636 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 2: on a run play as well. That that's something that 637 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 2: I think is potentially a really exciting, you know, kind 638 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: of strength of Jared Wilson. So maybe this this settles 639 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 2: with Jared Wilson at center. Maybe that makes everybody feel 640 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: a little bit better on paper. Again, I when it 641 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 2: comes to this time of year, there's two things, Like one, 642 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 2: you can't really block anybody, Like you're not like really 643 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 2: being physical, you know, you're kind of like sliding your 644 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 2: feet like it's basketball and just like trying to stay 645 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,959 Speaker 2: in front of your guy as a defender in basketball 646 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 2: would this time of year. And the other thing is 647 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 2: is that you're not there's not really a thread of 648 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 2: the run, like you're not really like going in a 649 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 2: in a drill or in a team period where the 650 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: defense has to like be honest about that. 651 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: I was actually gonna say because usually this time of year, 652 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, you run ten reps, you throw nine, and 653 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: they might mix a run play in there just to 654 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: keep the defense honest. Even if it's you can't really 655 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: do anything with it. I felt like they were mixing 656 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: the run. I don't know the last time I saw 657 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: a run mixed in that much in a non padded product. 658 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, each guy got like each quarterback, I mean, got 659 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 2: maybe two or three runs. 660 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: Per That feels like more than what we've usually seen 661 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:07,239 Speaker 1: right in that little bit. 662 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 2: And one of the things that stood out to me is, 663 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 2: I thought, and getting it just one day, so we're 664 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 2: gonna have to see the whole look of it once 665 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 2: it we move forward here by a lot of zone running, 666 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 2: a lot of stretch outside zone. There was a couple 667 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 2: of you know, full back elements as well, but a 668 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 2: lot of outside zone. I think that that's going to 669 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 2: be a bigger emphasis of this version. And this is 670 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 2: just my opinion, like it's not informed in anyway, but 671 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: this is gonna be more of an emphasis emphasis in 672 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 2: this version of Josh mcdaniels's offense than what we've seen 673 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 2: in the past because Drake can move right, so you 674 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 2: don't have Mac Jones or Tom Brady back there. You 675 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 2: have a mobile quarterback that is really really good on 676 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 2: the move and is actually a strength of his game 677 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 2: is getting outside the pocket and throwing on the run. 678 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: And I kind of liked what he said. Today after 679 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: practice he was asked what's new in the toolbox this year, 680 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: and he said he want what was the exact what 681 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: was like remaining a pass remaining a passer when he runs. Yes, 682 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: it's not just running to scramble, it's running to extend 683 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: the play. Keep the defense honest. I mean the guys 684 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: that play this way at a high level, your guy 685 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, like, that's that's the. 686 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: Things when they're the most andous. 687 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: If you're gonna keep the defense honest, that you can 688 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: still throw the ball. It's all about putting guys in conflict, right, 689 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: there's no better way to put the defense in conflict. 690 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: Then you're outside the pocket. You're almost to the numbers, 691 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,959 Speaker 1: but they still can't commit and come get you because 692 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: they know you're just gonna throw the ball right behind him. 693 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 2: So we'll see if today was just like a zone 694 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: running day and tomorrow we'll get back to getting on 695 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: double teams and leading full backs and like, you know. 696 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 5: Do that. 697 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: I would also say, if you are going to mix 698 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: in the run just for the sake of mixing and 699 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: the run in a non padded practice to keep the 700 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: defense honest. It makes more sense to call zone than. 701 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 2: Powerless, especially not in paths because like if you're trying 702 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: to get on like a double team or something like that, 703 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: and these types of practices, like what are you really accomplishing? 704 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: Right Like the Yeah, outside zones much more of like 705 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 2: a athletic graceful exactly. Yeah, it is a power movement. 706 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: So we'll see. They could still come out that first 707 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 1: day full payah, smash and heads. 708 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, So that was that was There was good and 709 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 2: bad there with the offensive line. The positive though of it, 710 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 2: to kind of bring it back is at this defensive line, 711 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 2: at least the front you know, the the front line, 712 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: defensive players on the dead line of scrimmage. There's still 713 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 2: I still feel really confident that this group is going 714 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 2: to be a force to be reckoned with, you know, 715 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 2: Milton Williams, Barmore, Keon White Landry uh Chase On probably 716 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 2: for now, maybe that's Braydon Swinson, maybe that's Elijah Ponder 717 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 2: down the road, if one of those rookies can start 718 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 2: pushing for that third down pass rush specialist type of role. 719 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 2: But Milton Williams was disruptive I thought, you know, Keyon White, 720 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 2: they have him playing mostly end in this system, which 721 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 2: I like. Barmore Actually I saw a couple of times 722 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: kicking outside to end as well to try to give 723 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 2: them some more flexibility to get you know, a Tonga 724 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 2: inside or a ke On White more inside the formation 725 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 2: as well. So there's gonna be a lot of there's 726 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 2: gonna be some impact players on that defensive line. The line, 727 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 2: not to take Landry off the field on purpose, like 728 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 2: you know, he's a good player too, but like when 729 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 2: you start to think about you know, bar More Tonga 730 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: at the nose tackle, Milton Williams is somewhere at the 731 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 2: three technique or whatever, and Keon White like as like 732 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 2: a true defensive end. You know, we talked earlier about 733 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 2: and have talked about like run defense, and if we 734 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 2: have any concerns about run defense, which I have had some. 735 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 2: That's a much more beefier, more stout. Yeah, that's a 736 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 2: more stout group. And bar Moore is if he can 737 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 2: be more flexible and maybe kick out side a little 738 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 2: bit further. He's played some three to four end in 739 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 2: his career, you know, some over straight up over the 740 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 2: tackle type of stuff. So it's not that it's totally 741 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 2: foreign to him or impossible for him. 742 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: He has the athleticism too, Like at a certain point 743 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: you can fall back on athleticism, Yeah, when you're just 744 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: that skilled. 745 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. So I'm I'm pretty bullish on that group. But 746 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 2: the flip side, as I'm sure some people will take it, 747 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: is that the blocking could have been better. The blocking 748 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 2: up front could have been better. 749 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: They could have stonewalled them today. They could allowed one 750 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: hundred sacks today. I just I don't care until the 751 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 1: pads come on. I know, I'm just saying my part. 752 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 2: Well, because like now let's say we have a show 753 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 2: to do today. 754 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: Let's say Will I know, but let's say Will Campbell 755 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,240 Speaker 1: is a really good first day in pads, right, Yeah, 756 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna say, well, I didn't you talk about when 757 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: he sucked before, Like because I don't care. 758 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 2: Well, I didn't think it was and the verse too. 759 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: He could have a great I'm just using him as 760 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: an example because I like Will Campbell. There's some people 761 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: that don't, that still hate that pick get over it, 762 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: but there are so you know, I don't. I you know, 763 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 1: I got to set myself up so when I give 764 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 1: that Tate. Was it gonna be Monday, the first day 765 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: of pads. Other way too, he could be awesome. He 766 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: could be awesome and talk about he's awesome. Oh well, yeah, 767 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: you were just waiting because he sucked the first few days. No, 768 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: I don't care. I I let me see who's out 769 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: there together. If it's a sack because of a blown assignment, 770 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 1: I care about that because pads are no should be assignments. 771 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: Sound right, and I'll give you the the center snap 772 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: in the ball right, clean snaps, don't put balling. Oh well, 773 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: you know this swim move really gave them trouble. They're 774 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: not in pads. I don't care. It's not real football. 775 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 2: Well it's fair. 776 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: You're right, were show you today, But that's my take. Today. 777 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 2: Your station's gonna be the one that's doing it. 778 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: I know. And if I was on with them today, 779 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: I would say, look, this is I like you can 780 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: put stock into it. I'm choosing not to. If the 781 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: same thing happens when the pads come on. If we're 782 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: still talking. 783 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 2: About this in ten days, then we have a problem. 784 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 2: Right one day, I don't have a problem yet. I'm 785 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 2: with you on that. I actually the best compliment that 786 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 2: I could probably give Will Campbell with the caveat of again, 787 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 2: like I wish I did, But I don't have access 788 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: to the practice film, so I'm not watching it back. 789 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 2: I'm watching this live and trying to pick up as 790 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 2: much as I possibly can. The best compliment I can 791 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 2: give Will Campbell right now is I don't notice Will Campbell. 792 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna say. Again, I'm using him 793 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: as an example. Thinking back on it, I don't know 794 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: how much today I was like, oh, we'll like I 795 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: think it was like one play. Yeah, I don't even know. 796 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 2: There was one rush where I thought Chazon got the 797 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 2: corner on that's what and Drake May had to step 798 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 2: up in the pocket. But you know, Drake May, as 799 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 2: long as there's a good interior of Drake h, he 800 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 2: could have just driven by him. 801 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:10,839 Speaker 4: Right. 802 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 2: It wasn't like Will Campbell was beat so clean that. 803 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: We talked about this. Somebody called in the offices was like, 804 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 1: what's the successful season for Will Campbell? And I think 805 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: I remember my answer was we mentioned that he's the 806 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 1: Week one starter and then we don't say his name 807 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 1: again until he's named in All Pro. Yeah, like that's 808 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: a successful season. 809 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 2: So all right, So that's that's pretty much practice. Again. 810 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: It was only a ninety minute session, two team periods, 811 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 2: mostly individual drills and just easing back into things here. 812 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 2: Was there anything else that stood out to you? We 813 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 2: also had press conferences, so we mentioned Drake May's comments 814 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 2: about remaining a passer longer. I love that, you know what, 815 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,800 Speaker 2: that's great. That was exactly I didn't necessarily think that 816 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 2: he did. It was a detriment to him last year, 817 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 2: Like I didn't necessarily have that takeaway from last year 818 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 2: that oh he left some plays on the field by 819 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 2: taking off a little bit too prematurely, maybe a couple 820 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 2: of times, but nitpicky things, you know. I think it 821 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 2: was totally terrible. But the good news is that he's 822 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: established that he's a really good scrambler. So now teams 823 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: are going to start to respect him as a scrambler 824 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 2: and he might be a you know, have more gravity 825 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 2: towards him. 826 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: Pit's development, it's it's play development, like it's that simple. 827 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 1: Other things that stood out to me. Talked about Drake 828 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 1: May spreading the ball. I like that, talked about the 829 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: line rotation, We talked about speed on defense, oh digs. 830 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 1: So his press conference right, Yes, it was all very measured. 831 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: He was asked about rehabbing from the knee and talked 832 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: about it. You know, it takes time to come back 833 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: from this. He's got to work through it. He's asked 834 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: about learning the playbook and he said, yeah, you know, 835 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: I'm still studying as much as I can, and I'm 836 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: excited for it. Receivers have had success, but I'm still 837 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: working on it. Chemistry with Drake may you know, that's 838 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 1: going to be a process that's not going to happen 839 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: in one day. We're gonna have to work on that, 840 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: spend time together on the field, off the field. And 841 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: then I think his last answer was just like a 842 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: very general like kind of advice to young players. Don't 843 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: ride the roller coaster, you know, stay balanced, trust the 844 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: process all that night and day. From what we heard 845 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: from the wide receiver room last year, and I just 846 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,439 Speaker 1: think that approach is going to be important in that room. 847 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: Let's not get too high, let's not get too low. 848 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: Let's handle this on a day by day basis. You know, 849 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: when Diggs was signed, a lot of the talk was 850 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: not just what he was gonna bring on the field, 851 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: but as a leader, and that's exactly what you're hoping 852 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: to hear from him is just a more baseline, nuanced, 853 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: less extreme mental approach to all this. And there's other 854 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: guys in that room that probably need that, and you 855 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 1: hope he's imparting it on them, and you hope they're listening. 856 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: But I thought it was you know, it would have 857 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: been really easy for him to come out and say, yeah, 858 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: me and Drake are doing great. You know, I love 859 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:48,800 Speaker 1: playing with him, blah blah blah whatever. Give us the 860 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: sexy SoundBite that we all want to know is yeah, 861 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: you know, we're starting to work together, but it's day 862 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 1: one and we're gonna have a lot more work to do. 863 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: Like that's a mature answer, and I think it's a 864 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: lot closer to the truth. So I loved what he 865 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: had to say after practice. I thought that stuff was excellent. 866 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 2: Oh so, there's one other thing I wanted to get 867 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: to before we move on, and we opened it up here. 868 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 2: Jalen Polk. 869 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 870 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,720 Speaker 2: So, Jalen Polk ended last year with the shoulder injury 871 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 2: technically on injured reserve. He was on injury re serve 872 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,320 Speaker 2: for one year. He had he had surgery in the 873 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 2: off season on the shoulder. We saw him and Digs 874 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 2: working a lot together in the spring off to the 875 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,959 Speaker 2: side on the side field when they were doing full 876 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 2: team drills, just running routes against the air. And then 877 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 2: he comes out there today. He's not on the list, 878 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 2: he's not on NFI or PUP, but he's not participating 879 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 2: in practice here today. And on the one hand, I 880 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 2: want to give Jaalen Polk a little bit of grace 881 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 2: because it's again we're gonna keep saying it's one day 882 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 2: for everybody, it's one day for him, like he could 883 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 2: be out there tomorrow, yeah and whatever, but it's not 884 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 2: tracking that way for him. And right now he needs 885 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 2: to prove it, right, Like he needs to go out 886 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 2: there and prove he belongs in this league quickly because 887 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 2: this frank like this regime doesn't know him anything, right, 888 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 2: like Mike Rabele didn't draft him, Like it's not his guy. 889 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 2: I think they like him, but as a person and everything, Like, 890 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 2: I don't think they dislike Jalen Polk by any means. 891 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,919 Speaker 2: But at the same time, you can't make the club 892 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 2: from the tub. He's still not on the field. It's 893 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 2: it's hard, it's it's a hard look, right, now. 894 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: No, he's played ketchup. He has to play ketchup. It's 895 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: that simple, and you're not doing that from you know, 896 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 1: the rehab field. 897 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope that he gets out there because you 898 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 2: want to see everybody compete. You want to see everybody 899 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: compete for roles. But you know, Matt Collins, I think 900 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 2: his role and or his vision of his role is 901 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 2: sort of locked in, as you know, a fourth or 902 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 2: fifth receiver and a special teamer and a leader and 903 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 2: like a veteran presence in the room. You know, Kyle 904 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 2: Williams and Stefan Diggs are going to be here. I 905 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 2: believe that that Pop Douglas is as close to a 906 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 2: lock as you possibly. 907 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: He has to be. They just don't have the speed. 908 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: They don't have speed without him. 909 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 2: So that's four guys, right, there's. 910 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: One or two spots, right, Diggs, Williams, Pop In Hollins. 911 00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: So are they going to keep five or six? A 912 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: lot of people have projected them to seven, myself included. 913 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: I kind of did that to make a point. I 914 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: don't know how realistic that actually is. So there's one 915 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,800 Speaker 1: or two spots, and that's including kender Porn, that's including 916 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: Kishon booty. That's including Fton Chisholm. Yeah, so he's got 917 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 1: even if it's seven. Even if it's seven, he has 918 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: to pass at least one of those guys. Based on 919 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 1: what we saw in the spring. I don't know that 920 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 1: he's ahead of any of those guys right now. 921 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got to get out there, and he knows it. 922 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 2: Like I'm not telling him anything, saying anything that I'm 923 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 2: sure he's not thinking himself. But we're going to open 924 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: up the emails and the phones now.

I kind of 961 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 2: think that's dub like I'm kind of marking that one 962 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 2: as w. 963 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 1: I mean that team's objectively not great. 964 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that team is not very good on paper. All right, 965 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 2: you guys have been waiting on the phone line, so 966 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 2: let's get you started here. Nate is in Connecticut. What's 967 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 2: going on, Nate? 968 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 6: Not much, you guys. Hey, So my question for you 969 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 6: guys is about the intensity during the training camp today 970 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 6: compared to the other years. How would you say Mike 971 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 6: vay Bo's approach to the intensity of this camp was 972 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 6: was it fast paced or would you say it was 973 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 6: more chilling and relaxed. And how would you say the 974 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 6: intensity dictated the competitiveness, like if if it was high intensity, 975 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 6: high competitiveness, and if it was like low intensity and 976 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 6: it was just a chill practice. 977 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 2: Thank you guys, No problem, Nate. I would say it's 978 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 2: probably a better question to ask us in like a 979 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 2: week from now, but I would I would say, just 980 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: in general, going back to the spring, there's been an 981 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 2: intensity to practice, like there's it feels a lot more 982 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 2: and this is not a shot, but it feels a 983 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 2: lot more like a Belichick practice where there's not as 984 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,320 Speaker 2: much wasted time in between plays, like it's play play 985 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 2: play play. It's very game like in that's in that scenario. 986 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 2: And also you know, just watching like them break huddles 987 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 2: and stuff like Mike rabel is like the first he's 988 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,760 Speaker 2: sprinting across the fields like to the next thing. He's 989 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 2: a he's a maniac. Like, the guy's an absolute maniac 990 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,320 Speaker 2: on the practice field. So he sets a tone to 991 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 2: have a pace and have a tempo to practice. That's 992 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 2: game like feel, So I would if I had to say, 993 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 2: I I think it feels more maybe not endo Belichick 994 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 2: and the Belichick got a little got a little soft frankly, 995 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 2: like there was there is a little bit of like 996 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 2: you know, trying to like not be as much of 997 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 2: a hard o to the veteran players and things like that. 998 00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 2: But what I remember of like early Belichick for me, 999 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:04,720 Speaker 2: you know, like eighteen nineteen, that time, uh, that dis practice. 1000 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 2: These practices feel more like that. 1001 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, last year it was a lot more just get 1002 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: into eleven's and go. I think there's more instructional periods 1003 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 1: this year. It is that game likes a good way 1004 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 1: to put it. And he kind of talked about it. 1005 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: For Abel did before practice today, like, you don't have 1006 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: all this time in between plays in a game, so 1007 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 1: I take it in practice when it comes to substitutions 1008 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 1: and breaking the huddle and getting lined up. I actually 1009 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 1: didn't see. I meant to look. I don't think they 1010 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 1: had a play clock set up out there. I'd like 1011 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 1: a big one, but I wouldn't be surprised if Rabel 1012 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: or maybe Stretch or you know, one of those other 1013 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 1: coaches or staffers is keeping one like on a stopwatch, 1014 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: right making sure they're out in forty seconds. 1015 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 2: There's absolutely an emphasis on making a game like where 1016 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 2: you run a play, yeah, and then you run immediately 1017 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 2: back by run a play. 1018 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: He talked about, you know, it's not all we're gonna 1019 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,239 Speaker 1: run the play. We're gonna talk about what we liked, 1020 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 1: what we didn't like, that we're gonna run the next play. 1021 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: He said, Like you can do that all on the field, 1022 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: get out there and run the place. And that's they 1023 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: fit a lot in. Like it didn't. It didn't feel 1024 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: as like when they got done, I was we're already done. 1025 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: Like it felt like a lot longer than it was. 1026 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:11,239 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1027 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: So it's right into the time that they had. 1028 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 2: I think it it increases by fifteen minutes until it 1029 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 2: gets to two hours. 1030 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 1: That sounds right at this point. 1031 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 2: I think you can actually technically might be able to 1032 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 2: go two hours and fifteen once we really get into 1033 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 2: the meta training camp. But right now today was ninety 1034 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 2: I think tomorrow they're permitted for one oh five and 1035 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 2: then like it kind of keeps going right from there. 1036 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 2: So it was a quick practice today, but the practices 1037 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 2: will get longer and obviously the pads will come on 1038 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 2: and they'll get tougher as well. Patty is an aguam. 1039 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 2: What's up Patty? 1040 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:44,239 Speaker 5: What's up? 1041 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 7: Ken? 1042 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 2: How are we doing. 1043 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 7: Doing all right? 1044 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:50,439 Speaker 8: First off? 1045 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 7: Non well sort of footballer Jason Alex site, I enjoy 1046 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 7: listening to you Sundays when you're on when you're on 1047 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 7: the Hub. 1048 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and thank you. 1049 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 7: One of the things that I love that you slip 1050 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 7: in as though subtle, it's always funny in Philadelphia references. 1051 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 7: I didn't know you were a fan, And yes, I 1052 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 7: love that show. 1053 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: Nothing on the New Seas, don't tell me anything on 1054 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: New Season. I haven't seen it yet, but yeah. 1055 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 7: Fan either. 1056 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one of like the few things that haven't 1057 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: actually a fun show. 1058 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, So just going back to football, the 1059 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 8: two guys I want to ask questions about was I'm sorry, 1060 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 8: I plead ignorance on this, was there anything wrong with 1061 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,879 Speaker 8: Austin Hooper during the spring workouts that that made him 1062 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 8: fill on the list. 1063 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 7: And is there anything out there as to that's being 1064 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 7: reported as to why DL and Poke didn't practice today? 1065 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 7: And I'll take it out there, guys. 1066 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 2: Thanks Patty. So Austin Hooper undisclosed injury. I don't think 1067 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 2: anybody's reported the exact injury yet, but I do remember 1068 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 2: him tweaking something in the spring and uh and not 1069 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 2: practicing towards the end of the spring, or at least 1070 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 2: being extremely limited in the spring practices. So when he 1071 00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 2: opened the camp on PUP I wasn't surprised. I do 1072 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 2: remember that happening. So I don't know what the injury is. 1073 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 2: I don't think there's a report out there on exactly 1074 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 2: what the injury is that he's dealing with, but no 1075 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:13,439 Speaker 2: positive news I would say is if Rabeled yesterday did 1076 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 2: say that he didn't feel like anybody was going to 1077 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,240 Speaker 2: miss like significant training camp time that was on a list, 1078 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 2: so hopefully that includes Austin Hooper, and it won't be 1079 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 2: long until he gets back out there. Because Hunter Henry 1080 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 2: in a nice catch today up the scene. He continues 1081 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 2: to be Hunter Henry, and we know Hooper can be 1082 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 2: a really steady and reliable backup. But after those two 1083 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 2: guys at tight End, Alex, I don't have a whole 1084 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 2: lot of confidence in anybody else in that room yet. Now, 1085 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 2: hopefully somebody makes some plays and starts to flash, or 1086 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 2: whether it's Westover, Jane Bell or one of the undrafted 1087 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 2: guys you know, Dupre or g Scott. But right now 1088 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:52,839 Speaker 2: I feel like that no one's really taken that tight 1089 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 2: end three position by the Horns quite yet. Now it's 1090 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,320 Speaker 2: way early, but it just hasn't happened. 1091 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 1: No, it'll it'll be. I mean, star Wars getting most 1092 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,280 Speaker 1: of the run, so you figure he's probably the leader. 1093 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 1: There's still that lingering thing with CJ. Dupree. If they 1094 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: want a blocker, he fits, but he's gonna have to 1095 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:10,839 Speaker 1: like show it right when pads come on. But they 1096 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 1: I still think there's a real chance they just keep 1097 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: two tight ends and then it's practice squad elevations for 1098 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: the first month or so of. 1099 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 2: The season and Lampia, of course, I can't forget. 1100 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: Well, he's a full I think he's just gonna play 1101 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: full back. 1102 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 2: Well he won't play full back, but yes, he will 1103 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 2: be on the I think he will be with the 1104 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 2: tight ends with Jalen Polk. It's the show. It's got 1105 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 2: to be the shoulder. I don't know what I prognosed. 1106 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 2: There's no reason to believe anything else. 1107 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 1: So when he was out there in the spring, like, 1108 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: he was running routes pretty full speed, so I can't 1109 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: imagine its lower body. 1110 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 2: Right. 1111 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: Then again, Diggs was running full speed and that was 1112 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: an a C L So maybe that doesn't try it. 1113 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 1: But like we didn't see I didn't see him wearing 1114 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: any sort of brace or sleeve or like outside of 1115 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 1: the ordinary. Right, So yeah, I would. 1116 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 2: I would speculate, obviously, but speculate shoulder. It's the shoulder, 1117 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 2: and no one knows. There's no timeline of when exactly 1118 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 2: he's gonna be and practicing again. All right, Randy is 1119 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 2: in Providence. What's up, Randy? 1120 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 5: Hey guys, how's it going to that? 1121 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 2: Hey? Good? 1122 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 3: So I had a couple of quench questions for you, 1123 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 3: real quick off the top, I was wondering how you 1124 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 3: guys thought the defensive coordinator. Terrell Williams looked like I 1125 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 3: know Rabel and a lot of his coaches really get 1126 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 3: actively involved, and I was wondering if he was that way. 1127 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 5: He was a little more kind of relaxed and not 1128 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 5: as not as active. 1129 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for the call, Randy. So just to put 1130 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 2: some background on that, Terrell Williams is here, he's with 1131 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,880 Speaker 2: the team. He was coaching today. He was not in 1132 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 2: the spring due to a health issue. Thankfully for him, 1133 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,320 Speaker 2: it seems like that is he's been cleared and and 1134 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 2: you know, good to go, as Rabel joked yesterday, is 1135 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:55,279 Speaker 2: not on pup or whatever, so that's good news. I 1136 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 2: don't think that Terrell Williams is as hands on of 1137 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 2: a coach as Mike Rabel is, just based off of 1138 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,480 Speaker 2: what I've heard about Terrell Williams, Terrell Williams does seem 1139 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 2: like more of like to sit back and observe and 1140 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 2: make corrections later type of guy. So that's how I 1141 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,759 Speaker 2: would say it. But it was one practice like I 1142 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,880 Speaker 2: wouldn't put too much emphasis on that, but it was 1143 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 2: good to see him back out there. I just think 1144 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 2: in general, it's a little not a concern, but like 1145 00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:26,320 Speaker 2: a little bit of an unknown. What exactly his play 1146 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:29,360 Speaker 2: calling style is going to be, how exactly they're going 1147 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 2: to handle third down? Like, are they gonna be blitz heavy? 1148 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 2: Are they gonna be are they going to be a 1149 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 2: coverage team? Like? Is he a drop eight guy? Is 1150 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 2: he a send the house guy right? 1151 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 1: Like? 1152 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 2: I don't know yet? Is he both? Is he a 1153 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 2: mix and match guy? Is he a two high guy? 1154 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:45,760 Speaker 2: Single high guy? Like? These are all things that I 1155 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,240 Speaker 2: am interested to see from Terrell Williams because he doesn't 1156 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 2: really have a whole lot of play calling experience in 1157 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 2: his coaching history. We know Rabel can call plays on 1158 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,799 Speaker 2: the defense, but Terrell Williams hasn't done a ton and 1159 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 2: according to Rabel, it's gonna be Terrell Williams that's gonna 1160 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 2: call the defense. So we don't necessarily get that in 1161 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 2: practice per se. But the Terrell Williams of it. All 1162 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: the good news is that he's here and that he's 1163 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 2: actively coaching in practice, but it's still an unknown, a 1164 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,879 Speaker 2: little bit of what exactly he's going how exactly he's 1165 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 2: going to coordinate this defense. 1166 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with all that there's nothing to say, like, 1167 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:20,399 Speaker 1: how does he look. 1168 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:22,960 Speaker 2: It's not a player, so yeah, he can't. 1169 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:24,399 Speaker 1: Really do that, especially this early. But it's good. 1170 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:24,759 Speaker 2: He's back. 1171 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 1: It's good, he's back. 1172 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, it's good. All right. Emory is in Virginia. 1173 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: A lot of calls. I love it. 1174 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 5: What's up, Emory, Good afternoon, gentlemen, football as well. He 1175 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 5: excited about camp. A kid that I'm interested in is 1176 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 5: Alex Austin cornerback. Give me some positive feedback on that kid, please. 1177 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for the call, Emory. Alex Austin is an 1178 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 2: interesting one because there's two I was on with our 1179 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:56,200 Speaker 2: buddy Taylor and Mike had like on the ceiling this 1180 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,759 Speaker 2: podcast the other day. We were talking about this, and 1181 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 2: there's a world where Alex Austin's body type fits the 1182 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 2: slot cornerback role. That that big slot that Rabel has 1183 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 2: said is going to be more prominent maybe in this 1184 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 2: defense than the Patriots have had it in the past. 1185 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 2: But I really have always viewed Alex Austen as like 1186 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:19,800 Speaker 2: a rotational outside cordner where maybe you're in a matchup 1187 00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 2: where you know their best receiver is really like a 1188 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:25,680 Speaker 2: Z or an inside receiver. So Christian Gonzalez is playing 1189 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 2: more that week on the inside because he's shadowing somebody 1190 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 2: inside a lot. And so now you need like a 1191 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,960 Speaker 2: third outside corner that has some size and that can 1192 00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 2: hold up in a high volume outside role. And then 1193 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:40,839 Speaker 2: you don't have to put like a five foot eight 1194 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,400 Speaker 2: Marcus Jones out on the boundary right because you have 1195 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,839 Speaker 2: a six foot Alex Austin to put out there. That's 1196 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 2: the way I view Alex Austin. We've talked about it 1197 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 2: a million times, like more like in that Jason mccordy 1198 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 2: type of archetype where it's like he's the third corner. 1199 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 2: He's gonna play a lot in certain matchups. He might 1200 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 2: not play as much in other matchups. But then there 1201 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 2: are other people that I kind of wonder if you 1202 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:02,280 Speaker 2: could play a little bit in the slot. 1203 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: So I do both. I wonder if he can do 1204 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,319 Speaker 1: both and just kind of be like a Swiss army 1205 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: knife backup. I mean, I was putting a lot on 1206 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,680 Speaker 1: the kid, but you know, he's smart player. Think he 1207 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,840 Speaker 1: could handle it. If you want something on him from today, 1208 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to put any stock 1209 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,479 Speaker 1: and the guys that were leading the stretch lines early 1210 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,560 Speaker 1: in practice. So this is a little different under Vrabel. 1211 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 1: It's like a high school style stretch where the team's 1212 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 1: kind of in a grid and the guys at the 1213 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 1: front by the coaches are backfacing the rest of the team. 1214 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:30,799 Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about. Yes, So the guys again, 1215 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 1: we'll see, maybe this will change day to day. And 1216 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: obviously these players are on slightly different standing as I 1217 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,240 Speaker 1: go through this list, But the players leading the stretch 1218 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,000 Speaker 1: lines today I had, so maybe I missed somebody, but 1219 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 1: I had Stephan in no particular order, well it was 1220 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 1: the order, just they were by position, Stefan Diggs, Antonio Gibson, 1221 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 1: Drake May, Morgan Moses, Jalen Hawkins, Robert Splane, Alex Austin 1222 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:57,440 Speaker 1: and Jalen Hawkins twice, Christian Gonzalez, Garrett Bradbury City, So 1223 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 1: Hunter Henry and Truman Jones. So Alex Austin leading a 1224 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,719 Speaker 1: stretch line. Make of that what you will. I don't 1225 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 1: know if that'll rotate or if that'll be the same 1226 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 1: thing every day. But I didn't notice him doing that, 1227 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 1: and so like him, Truman Jones City, so kind of 1228 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,320 Speaker 1: different standing than some of those other guys. Hunter Henry 1229 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 1: Morgan Moses even step on Diggs. So I don't know 1230 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,359 Speaker 1: what to make of that, but he was doing it. 1231 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 2: So I think the reason why I kind of stray 1232 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,359 Speaker 2: away from him as a slocky for me particularly is 1233 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 2: just the strength to me of Alex Austin's game is 1234 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 2: playing the deep part of the field. Like I think 1235 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 2: he's really good at playing the deep ball. He's good 1236 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 2: at winning a down the field at catch points, making 1237 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 2: plays on the football down the field. I don't know 1238 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 2: if like he's he's like a little high like cut in. 1239 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if he has that true like change 1240 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:48,000 Speaker 2: of direction to handle like a jitterbug slot right, Like 1241 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 2: if you're going to be inside and you're going up 1242 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,359 Speaker 2: against like a quicker you know, edel Midwelker mold type 1243 00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 2: of receiver, I like, that's Marcus Jones. 1244 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: Well, so that's I think that that's probably the idea 1245 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 1: is you know, you would think that the coach staff 1246 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: they're gonna kind of tailor that. So against the Dolphins, right, 1247 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna have Marcus Jones out there. But when you 1248 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: played the Bengals with Andre Yoshavas, right, who's that bigger, 1249 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 1: more physical guy. Because the other thing about Alex Austin, 1250 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 1: even if he's not that ideal cover fit, part of 1251 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 1: the reason you use a big slot is to be 1252 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: better against the run, which I think he can do 1253 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:21,279 Speaker 1: because he's physical, right, he doesn't mind contact, So I 1254 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:24,399 Speaker 1: think in certain matchups it makes sense. And that's why, 1255 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:27,839 Speaker 1: Like he's your he's your backup in both spots. He's 1256 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,960 Speaker 1: your backup boundary corner and he's your backup slot corner, 1257 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:32,680 Speaker 1: so you can kind of use him as a matchup 1258 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 1: piece wherever you think he's best. Now, when guys get hurt, right, 1259 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:38,240 Speaker 1: I don't know that. Let's say you don't have Marcus 1260 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:40,320 Speaker 1: Jones for the Dolphins game. Now you might have to pivot. 1261 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: Now do you look at a guy like Marcellus Dial 1262 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: or even Isaiah Bolden. But as a matchup guy, I 1263 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 1: don't hate him in the big slot in some situations. 1264 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,560 Speaker 2: So the last thing on Alex Austin that I wanted 1265 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 2: to say, which, of course now I'm totally forgetting what 1266 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 2: it was. So let's go to Eldred and I will 1267 00:56:56,560 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 2: remember it well. I you know, right far here, all right, Dred? 1268 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 2: What's up? How are we doing. 1269 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 5: There? 1270 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 2: He is in the truck love it. 1271 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 5: Hey tell us that y'all doing to day and I 1272 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 5: did take congratulations They have. 1273 00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,600 Speaker 2: Him right, thank you, yes, thank you? 1274 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:17,439 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, okay, question my doune cast is a jun jow. 1275 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 5: I know you've been on a practice squad. 1276 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:22,800 Speaker 7: I know he'd been doing this and that. But he 1277 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 7: said he did pretty good at Spring, but he didn't 1278 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:25,800 Speaker 7: catch nothing gets made. 1279 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 5: Any can't you beat home without just any chant? 1280 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,760 Speaker 7: I know he's thirty one, needs the guys hurt whatever, 1281 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 7: but it's a young movie I'm looking at. 1282 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, that that's a fair question. Fair question. Eldred, thanks 1283 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 2: for the cause always and h We did a guess 1284 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,720 Speaker 2: the picture thing yesterday where like we had our callers 1285 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:53,880 Speaker 2: sending pictures of themselves. All of us got Eldrick correct. 1286 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 2: We all knewho Aldred was. So that's how you know 1287 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,840 Speaker 2: how much of a religious caller Eldred is because we 1288 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 2: all recognized him. John Giles is. Paul Perrillo actually threw 1289 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:06,080 Speaker 2: his name out earlier today on our show, which I 1290 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 2: was shocked at because Paul always likes to joke that 1291 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:10,960 Speaker 2: like he doesn't really know the back of the roster 1292 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 2: very well, and all of a sudden he's just pulling 1293 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 2: out John Giles. But John Giles is I love like 1294 00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 2: the size in the speed combo that he has, Like 1295 00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 2: he's got he's got like that tool you know in 1296 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 2: his belt of He's a big dude that can move 1297 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 2: pretty well for his size. Yeah, But to me that 1298 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 2: projects to like a scout team role, right, where like 1299 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 2: he's gonna be a scout team X, he's gonna be 1300 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 2: somebody that you know, we're going up against his six 1301 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,640 Speaker 2: foot three, like a DK Metcalf type, right, And this 1302 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,960 Speaker 2: is like we have John Giles, who's obviously not DK Metcalf, 1303 00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 2: but we can sort of mimic what DK Metcalf does 1304 00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:48,280 Speaker 2: with John Giles. That's how I view John Giles currently. 1305 00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 2: Maybe he'll change my mind. I just don't know if 1306 00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 2: i'd view John Giles as a roster guy. I kind 1307 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 2: of view him as a practice question. 1308 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there's still some of his game that 1309 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,959 Speaker 1: he's rounding out. He had a drop today. Like you said, 1310 00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:59,800 Speaker 1: he's a good player to have in the building, but 1311 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: probably more of a practice squad guy. 1312 00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 2: Okay, So here's what I remember what I was gonna 1313 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 2: say about Alex Austin. One of the things that's been 1314 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 2: on my mind about this defense in general, and we're 1315 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 2: kind of we're opening up to anything you guys want 1316 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 2: to talk about. You can email us as well at 1317 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 2: it always changes. It's podcast at Patriots dot Com. You 1318 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 2: can email us there too if you want to get 1319 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 2: in on the emails we don't have. I feel like 1320 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:26,040 Speaker 2: we've put a bow on today's practice. I don't have 1321 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,520 Speaker 2: much more to add, but just as a general thought 1322 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:32,000 Speaker 2: on the team moving forward, I've been thinking a lot 1323 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:34,640 Speaker 2: about like how they're going to cover tight ends, And 1324 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 2: I don't know if Kyle Dugart or Jabriel Peppers has 1325 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 2: ever been great at covering tight ends in man coverage. 1326 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 2: Like not to pick on them. I think they're good 1327 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:45,800 Speaker 2: in different things, but I don't know if that's an 1328 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:49,240 Speaker 2: area of strength for either one of those guys. And nowadays, 1329 00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:51,240 Speaker 2: you know, you go through their schedule, even week one, 1330 00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 2: right out of the shoot, you're gonna have brock powers 1331 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 2: right coming here. There's these tight ends that are really 1332 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 2: just jumpbo receivers, Like they're just big, slow brought Bowers 1333 01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 2: as a receiver, like brop Owers is not gronk, like 1334 01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 2: he's not putting his hand in the dirt and blocking 1335 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 2: people at a high level. He's a receiver. He's a 1336 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 2: really good one. Obviously, they have guys like Kinkaid and 1337 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 2: Buffalo who they're gonna see twice a year, like another 1338 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:15,920 Speaker 2: one of those types of guys. I wonder if some 1339 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 2: of these corners are in the mix in terms of 1340 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:21,320 Speaker 2: covering some tight ends as well. Like Alex Austin seems 1341 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 2: like a guy it's got some size, got some coverage ability. 1342 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 2: Maybe in certain matchups if you're playing a more receiving 1343 01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 2: tight end like a brock Ours, maybe it's it's a 1344 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,720 Speaker 2: guy like Alex Austin. We've seen them do this in 1345 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 2: the Belichick years in the past. Gilmour had a couple 1346 01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 2: of games against like high level tight ends that he 1347 01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:41,360 Speaker 2: would take the tight end. I remember J C. Jackson 1348 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 2: did it in the AFC Championship game for a while 1349 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 2: against Travis Kelce for a good part of that game. 1350 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 2: So maybe that's something that they could explore with Alex Austin. 1351 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:55,040 Speaker 2: Maybe it's you know, Austin. Isaiah Bolden's another one there. 1352 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 2: Maybe it's Carlton Davis like covering some tight ends too, 1353 01:00:58,080 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 2: as a guy that's a little bit bigger and a 1354 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,000 Speaker 2: little bit more physical. I just don't know exactly how 1355 01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 2: they're gonna do it because it was so easy to 1356 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 2: predict how a Belichick defense was going to handle a 1357 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 2: tight end. You know, that could really impact the game. 1358 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 2: How do you feel about them covering tight ends and 1359 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:15,200 Speaker 2: like how they might go about that. 1360 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 1: So, Alex Austin's won and I was gonna bring that 1361 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:22,200 Speaker 1: up before when we were talking about It's actually funny 1362 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 1: you said that. I also think Craig Woodson is probably 1363 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 1: guy that's in the mix there. He seemed to have 1364 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 1: some success with that in spring, had some success that 1365 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 1: it in college, especially like Marcus Apps was back at 1366 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 1: it today. Jalen Hawkins remains involved. So if those are 1367 01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 1: your deep safeties, look I get it now, you're putting 1368 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:38,120 Speaker 1: Ford safeties on the field. These guys aren't always gonna 1369 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 1: be on the field at the same time. Or maybe 1370 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 1: this is instead of the slot corner or whatever. Right 1371 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:43,680 Speaker 1: you're with that big nickel is a big nickel safety. 1372 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be interested to see Craig Woodson once we 1373 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:49,000 Speaker 1: get into one on ones working on Hunter Henry and 1374 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,040 Speaker 1: hopefully Austin Hooper's back, and how he does against those guys, 1375 01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:53,760 Speaker 1: because I think he's got a pretty good profile for it. 1376 01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:54,920 Speaker 1: You just got to see if he can do it. 1377 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder if some of those corners get in 1378 01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 2: that mix, because Craig Woodson, I agree, could do some 1379 01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 2: of that thing. That stuff. 1380 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 1: Now. 1381 01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 2: I watched some of his tape covering tight ends in 1382 01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 2: college when they drafted him, like the Syracuse game against 1383 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,439 Speaker 2: Gats and the tight end like but Gatson, it didn't 1384 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 2: go so well. 1385 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, I wouldn't put him on like a brock 1386 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 1: Bowers type, and that Gats is obviously not brock Bowers. 1387 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 1: But the idea that Gatson literally was a wide receiver 1388 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,400 Speaker 1: right until I think last year, but the more traditional 1389 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 1: inline guys I think he could he might be able 1390 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 1: to hang with. 1391 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I could see that, but maybe it's one of 1392 01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 2: those corners. The other thing that I've been randomly thinking 1393 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 2: about because I just randomly think about these types of 1394 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,680 Speaker 2: things sometimes. Although I tried not to on my honeymoon. 1395 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:35,479 Speaker 2: Don't worry all. 1396 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 1: Right, that was the one time and I was not 1397 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 1: worried in eight years that I probably that I think 1398 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,680 Speaker 1: I managed to not think about football twenty four to seven. 1399 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 1: But the one other thing that I've been thinking a 1400 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:52,920 Speaker 1: lot about Kean White, Christian Barmore, Milton Williams. 1401 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:55,600 Speaker 2: I can see how you can get all three of 1402 01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 2: those guys on in like more of like a base 1403 01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 2: Nickel type of look, like a four down on look 1404 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,200 Speaker 2: with all three of those guys, but at the same time. Ideally, 1405 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:08,160 Speaker 2: especially on third down, all three of those guys are 1406 01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:10,840 Speaker 2: best rushing over the guards right like they like all 1407 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 2: three of them are guys that you want as interior 1408 01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:18,000 Speaker 2: pocket pushers, like pass rushers on the inside, especially Keon 1409 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:20,520 Speaker 2: Like I think Millon Williams and Barmore fit that too. 1410 01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,240 Speaker 2: But just my I guess where I'm going with this, 1411 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 2: Like how do you get all three of those guys 1412 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 2: in in their sweet spot at the same time, and 1413 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,880 Speaker 2: how do they go about doing that? How does Terrell 1414 01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 2: Williams go about doing that? Is going to be an 1415 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 2: interesting thing because all three of those guys I think 1416 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 2: are too good to take off the field on third down. 1417 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 2: Like you want all three of those guys rushing on 1418 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 2: third down. But does that mean that one of those 1419 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 2: guys is rushing kind of not at their best spot, 1420 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 2: Like maybe it's Kean White and he just has to 1421 01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 2: rush over the tackle or outside the tackle, even though 1422 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 2: he's not really naturally bendy or like meant to do that. 1423 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 2: It's an interesting problem to have, Like it's not even 1424 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 2: a problem, it's just kind of like it's a puzzle 1425 01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 2: of trying to fit that all together. I'm really curious 1426 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:06,960 Speaker 2: of what their fronts look like because I think some 1427 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 2: of their fronds when it comes to like there's no rules, right, 1428 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 2: you can do whatever you want. I think some of 1429 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 2: their friends, not that they're going to reinvent the wheel, 1430 01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:17,760 Speaker 2: but they might be kind of exotically. It might be 1431 01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:19,919 Speaker 2: kind of fun, like to just chart them and look 1432 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:21,640 Speaker 2: at them and see what they do week to week 1433 01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 2: in terms of that, because they have three guys that 1434 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 2: ideally are from zero to three technique on third down, 1435 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 2: whether you know Williams, bar More, Keon White, and how 1436 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 2: do they manage to get all three of them on 1437 01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 2: the field all at once on third down is gonna 1438 01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:40,480 Speaker 2: be like a fun little wrinkle. It's kind of like 1439 01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:44,400 Speaker 2: a challenge, honestly for the coaching staff. Do you see 1440 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:47,840 Speaker 2: what I'm saying? Because it's kind of redundant, right, Like 1441 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:51,080 Speaker 2: all three of those guys together are a little bit 1442 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:52,560 Speaker 2: redundant in some respects. 1443 01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, but like you said, I think that works in 1444 01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 1: this defense because there's no rules. It's kind of just 1445 01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:58,400 Speaker 1: pin your ears back and going. At that point, I 1446 01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 1: think you're looking at individual ability more than like the 1447 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 1: fit there is who's behind them. You want to have 1448 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 1: a linebacker that fits with them. If those two guys 1449 01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:06,600 Speaker 1: can get home, those three guys can get home, or 1450 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 1: four guys can get home, it doesn't really matter who 1451 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:10,040 Speaker 1: does it. As long as there's somebody behind them, we 1452 01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 1: can clean up. It's just look, we're all gonna have 1453 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 1: to adjust. This is all new. 1454 01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 2: It's fun. 1455 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: It's very I like it. I like it. It's good. 1456 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:18,200 Speaker 1: So I was it's funny. I was like explaining it 1457 01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 1: to my brother the other day, and so I was like, yes, 1458 01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:23,480 Speaker 1: it's like more aggressive and there's less about containing. He's like, oh, 1459 01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 1: so guys are gonna get blown by I'm like, no, 1460 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 1: that's not how Like, it's just different. It's not better 1461 01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 1: or worse. It's a different philosophy. This thing executed at 1462 01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 1: a high level is better than that thing executed at 1463 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:37,160 Speaker 1: a low level. That thing at a high level is 1464 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 1: better than this at a low level. It's just do 1465 01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 1: you have the personnel to fit it and can you 1466 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:44,120 Speaker 1: execute it? And they overhaul the personnel this offseason and 1467 01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 1: bar Moore is just so good he can fit anything. 1468 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be interesting to see how it goes. 1469 01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's gonna be an adjustment period because again 1470 01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:53,840 Speaker 1: it's not you're not looking all right, well, this guy's 1471 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,480 Speaker 1: gonna two gap and then this guy's gonna occupy the edge. 1472 01:05:56,600 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 1: Just go. It's just get out of your stance and go. 1473 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,480 Speaker 1: And you're more worried about the linebacker handling the finer points, 1474 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: whereas in the other one it was those guys having 1475 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:08,440 Speaker 1: the details and you're telling the linebacker just go, just 1476 01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:11,240 Speaker 1: pick a hole and go and get downhill and clog 1477 01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,560 Speaker 1: it up. It's it's basically the same. It's just inverted. 1478 01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:15,880 Speaker 1: The whole thing's just inverted. 1479 01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 2: So I do wonder with Barmore. Yeah, there's some guys like, 1480 01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:24,200 Speaker 2: you know, not to put him on this expectation, but. 1481 01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 1: Like Chris Jones, Yeah, with the Chiefs. 1482 01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:29,040 Speaker 2: Chris Jones plays a lot of defensive end for Kansas City. 1483 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 2: He's not a pure tackle tackle. Yeah, he's like a 1484 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,480 Speaker 2: hybrid guy that plays a lot outside or over the 1485 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:39,600 Speaker 2: tackle is like a five technique or whatever. I could 1486 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 2: see bar Moore evolving into that. 1487 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 1: I see Milli Williams doing that too. 1488 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 2: See I think Millon Williams, like I could see him 1489 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 2: doing it because he's talented. He could probably do anything. 1490 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:48,920 Speaker 2: But like, I think they really want to put Millon 1491 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:52,720 Speaker 2: Williams at his natural position at the three technique Jeffrey 1492 01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,280 Speaker 2: Simmons style and just let him eat well. 1493 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: The other thing about it is when you're in this setup, 1494 01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 1: when you're in a three four, even if you're playing end, 1495 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 1: you might be a three four end lined up in 1496 01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:07,560 Speaker 1: a spot where a four to three tackle would be. 1497 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 1: So Christian Barmber can be an end in that he's 1498 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 1: uncovered on the defensive line, but they could do that 1499 01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:17,320 Speaker 1: from a narrow split and like he's still taking on 1500 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 1: at guards outside shoulder, which he might be doing as 1501 01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:22,480 Speaker 1: a tackle if they're playing the end out wide in 1502 01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 1: a four to three, So you can mimic some of 1503 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:29,360 Speaker 1: that stuff. I think it's kind of the break outside 1504 01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 1: the tackle, right. 1505 01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, we talk about techniques like five techniques straight up 1506 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,960 Speaker 2: over the tackle. Four IY is like inside shaded. 1507 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 1: Like how much are you playing even if he's playing end, 1508 01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 1: is he playing end wider than a five tech. 1509 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 2: No, but I think he might play a lot more 1510 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:43,919 Speaker 2: of that four I five. 1511 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:47,000 Speaker 1: But there are times whereas a defensive tackle, you're playing 1512 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:49,240 Speaker 1: four in a four to three, not a three four, 1513 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 1: but in a four to three. Uh, because you're gonna 1514 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 1: put Maybe because there I'm going on mixing defenses here, 1515 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 1: but like you're gonna put Ninkovic out in a five 1516 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:58,160 Speaker 1: wide right, and he's the defensive end. You're gonna put 1517 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,000 Speaker 1: him all the way out there. So maybe you're your defense. 1518 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: It's a tackle right, Vince will Fork, that's your nose. 1519 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 1: You're not gonna put. And I don't know why I'm 1520 01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,240 Speaker 1: using an old defense to do this with bar Moore. 1521 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking the players who played the roles. Yeah, 1522 01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:13,240 Speaker 1: you're not gonna put bar more you know, half a 1523 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:15,800 Speaker 1: gap over from the nose. That just doesn't make any sense. 1524 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:18,760 Speaker 1: So some of it still translates. 1525 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 2: What it really comes down to is not like we 1526 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 2: don't have to get caught up in the minutia of 1527 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,679 Speaker 2: the techniques. It's the gaps right, like are you playing 1528 01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 2: the A the B or you're playing the edge right? Like, 1529 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 2: which what are you doing? Gap wise? So you can 1530 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:35,960 Speaker 2: line up bar More in a couple of different spots, 1531 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:39,240 Speaker 2: and technically he still has the B gap right, whether 1532 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:42,320 Speaker 2: he's a three technique, whether he's a four, I, whether 1533 01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 2: he's a five up over the tackle like five's usually 1534 01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:47,360 Speaker 2: are more of like a two gapping role, like you're 1535 01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:50,760 Speaker 2: playing both of it, and that's what the four. 1536 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 1: And he has a linebacker over his shoulder, he probably 1537 01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:56,320 Speaker 1: isn't gonna be responsible for the edge. It's gonna be 1538 01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 1: that linebacker unless they're having like a twist or something. 1539 01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:01,040 Speaker 2: Right, So I've meant to see what they do with 1540 01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:02,840 Speaker 2: bar Moore because I think that his role is going 1541 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:05,080 Speaker 2: to be pretty versatile in terms of kicking out a 1542 01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:08,360 Speaker 2: little bit further to free up opportunities for key On 1543 01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:10,040 Speaker 2: White to rush a little bit more inside. 1544 01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:11,639 Speaker 1: Well, then there's a key. I think key On White's 1545 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:13,439 Speaker 1: the real chess piece. I can't white and play anymore. 1546 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, he has played everywhere. I assume that that's going 1547 01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,800 Speaker 2: to continue as well. Alex's bind the glass. We have 1548 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,680 Speaker 2: any emails, I feel like we don't have it.

So if 1577 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:43,000 Speaker 3: Jalen Polk wasn't able to perform, why wouldn't he be 1578 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:45,360 Speaker 3: on that list? I guess, like, is there more to 1579 01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:48,160 Speaker 3: it than that? And thanks for taking my call, No 1580 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:48,679 Speaker 3: problem calling. 1581 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 2: It's a great question. 1582 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 1: That's that's question. 1583 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,759 Speaker 2: It's a very fair question. The pup list is made 1584 01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 2: for players like Jalen Polk, guys that experienced football injuries 1585 01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:01,880 Speaker 2: in a football game or football practice at the facility 1586 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:05,720 Speaker 2: and are not able to practice. So I couldn't tell 1587 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,599 Speaker 2: you why they didn't place them on pup I don't know. 1588 01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 2: I have no idea. 1589 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:11,719 Speaker 1: And you can activate him anytime you I mean until 1590 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:13,759 Speaker 1: the season starts, you can activate him any time you want. 1591 01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:18,320 Speaker 1: Like was on it and then he was off the 1592 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:21,720 Speaker 1: bit between him getting placed in the first practice, he 1593 01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 1: was taken off. So no, that's a good question. I 1594 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:26,559 Speaker 1: was a little surprised that Polk wasn't on there that 1595 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 1: if he can't participate, unless they thought he was going 1596 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: to be able to participate today and something happened. 1597 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:35,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't really understand that one either, So we'll 1598 01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 2: see what goes on with him tomorrow. Or like you said, 1599 01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:41,400 Speaker 2: maybe it was they anticipated that he was going to 1600 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:43,320 Speaker 2: be a good to go and they got out there 1601 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:45,960 Speaker 2: practice and he just wasn't ready. I have no idea. 1602 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 2: It is an interesting thing I would also want to 1603 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:52,200 Speaker 2: put out there. I want to talk a little bit 1604 01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:53,840 Speaker 2: more about the left guard position now. I have some 1605 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 2: emails coming in and we can get to those as well. 1606 01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:58,439 Speaker 2: But we mentioned Cole Strange was with the top unit 1607 01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:00,880 Speaker 2: for most of it. We did see Kayden Wallace a 1608 01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:02,880 Speaker 2: little bit at left guard. We basically saw everybody a 1609 01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:04,920 Speaker 2: little bit at left guard, like Caden. And I don't 1610 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:06,320 Speaker 2: mean with the top group, but I just mean in 1611 01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:11,000 Speaker 2: general within practice. So cole Strange right now has got 1612 01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 2: the inside track. I think that he's gonna think you 1613 01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:15,639 Speaker 2: said it earlier, like something's gonna have to go wrong 1614 01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 2: probably for Cole Strange shall lose that job, like he's 1615 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:22,599 Speaker 2: gonna ye, his performance is going to have to really suffer. 1616 01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:26,280 Speaker 2: So Cole Strange, Caden Wallace was in there as well, 1617 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:29,400 Speaker 2: which is interesting. I did see Jared Wilson take a 1618 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:32,519 Speaker 2: few reps there at left guard, and Leydon Robinson took 1619 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:35,480 Speaker 2: a few as well. Now this isn't just with Drake, 1620 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 2: with all the different quarterbacks, but I still remain interested 1621 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:44,599 Speaker 2: in the Kayden Wallace experiment of moving him inside. But 1622 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 2: it does really feel like left guard is is Cole 1623 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:47,840 Speaker 2: Strange's job to lose. 1624 01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 1: That feels more secure than center right now. Which again 1625 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:52,320 Speaker 1: I was the one saying there was going to be 1626 01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 1: a center battle, but I didn't think it was gonna 1627 01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:56,960 Speaker 1: be this quick, this much. 1628 01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:01,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's an interesting thing. All right, Let's get 1629 01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:04,440 Speaker 2: to some of these emails. So Zach is in South Carolina. 1630 01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 2: He emails in he says, where does mac Collins fit 1631 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,000 Speaker 2: with this offense? Along with to Von Diggs and Hunter Henry, 1632 01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:12,720 Speaker 2: I feel like his name isn't mentioned as much. He 1633 01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 2: seems like you'd be a great playmaker. Along with his 1634 01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 2: costumes he wears every Sunday. He does wear some great 1635 01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:23,400 Speaker 2: fits every Sunday. So Matt Collins, I actually really think 1636 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:28,160 Speaker 2: MATC Collins. Maybe I have Matt Collins like more closely 1637 01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 2: to a lock than other people do, I guess is 1638 01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 2: the best way to put it. Yeah, I feel like 1639 01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:33,880 Speaker 2: some people have thrown him out there as like a 1640 01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:36,760 Speaker 2: surprise cut candidate. The reason why Zach he hasn't been 1641 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:39,040 Speaker 2: talked about is because he's not practicing. Like it's hard 1642 01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:41,160 Speaker 2: to talk about a guy that's not practicing. But I 1643 01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:44,120 Speaker 2: just look at MATC. Collins as like it's just the 1644 01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:48,839 Speaker 2: overall role on the team. A guy that's a veteran 1645 01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:52,080 Speaker 2: is known as a leader, is known as a guy 1646 01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:55,280 Speaker 2: that's a good example for younger guys that room needed, 1647 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:57,519 Speaker 2: like a culture shit. Ye, And he's like a culture 1648 01:13:57,640 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 2: kind of. 1649 01:13:57,920 --> 01:14:01,559 Speaker 1: Guy that he can play in the kick game. They 1650 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,439 Speaker 1: gave him just enough money where it's worth mentioning. They 1651 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:06,519 Speaker 1: gave him enough money that like if they walked away, 1652 01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:08,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't be the end of the world, would be notable. 1653 01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:09,639 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1654 01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:13,200 Speaker 1: I think it's like four million dollars, right, I think 1655 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:16,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna be here. Uh kind of related on YouTube, Bunts, 1656 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:19,200 Speaker 1: it not Brunson, So don't worry Buns. And would you 1657 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,720 Speaker 1: be surprised if Baker makes the team over Polk. 1658 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:29,680 Speaker 2: Yes, But I think with Javon Baker, the issue for 1659 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:33,000 Speaker 2: him is like is he at best like the third 1660 01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:36,920 Speaker 2: string X right now? Because like if you consider Stefon 1661 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,160 Speaker 2: Diggs and Kyle Williams are probably gonna play a little 1662 01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 2: bit in that spot, you know, at least split it 1663 01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 2: or whatever you want to call it. They're gonna play 1664 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:47,439 Speaker 2: a little bit there. Kayshan Boody's gonna play, I think 1665 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:49,439 Speaker 2: is gonna make the team, and he's gonna play there, 1666 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 2: or at least as ahead of Javon Baker from making 1667 01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:54,599 Speaker 2: the team right now. So Javon Baker, it's just more 1668 01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:57,479 Speaker 2: in a lot of ways, I just feel like there's 1669 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 2: a lot of there's bodies in front of him, as 1670 01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:02,320 Speaker 2: well as the fact that he was only a fourth 1671 01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:04,760 Speaker 2: round pick and had a second round pick, and he 1672 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 2: still has some of the similar issues in terms of 1673 01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:09,600 Speaker 2: performance that we've seen out of Jale and Polk. So 1674 01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:11,640 Speaker 2: I still feel like I give Polk a little bit 1675 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:12,720 Speaker 2: of of an edge there. 1676 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:14,559 Speaker 1: I still think with Polk there's a chance he maybe 1677 01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,720 Speaker 1: opens on ir if he's not fully back or so 1678 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:19,240 Speaker 1: what they could do. So, I don't remember the last 1679 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 1: time this happened. I know you can do it, but 1680 01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 1: I remember the last time it happened with the Patriots. 1681 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:27,240 Speaker 1: So you're ineligible for pup once you practice Polk technically 1682 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 1: didn't practice today? Could they put him on pup tomorrow? 1683 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:36,280 Speaker 2: I guess they wanted to if he didn't officially practice, 1684 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:39,559 Speaker 2: and I suppose, yeah, you can't. Only the rules is 1685 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:41,520 Speaker 2: you can't go on people once you've actually. 1686 01:15:41,200 --> 01:15:43,479 Speaker 1: So I remember Barmore last year, like they couldn't put 1687 01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 1: him on pup because he stretched once, right, So I did, 1688 01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:50,479 Speaker 1: because then you save the IR spot, like I if 1689 01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:55,240 Speaker 1: Polk so behind, I because I Diggs. We talked about 1690 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 1: like where he was in the spring to where he 1691 01:15:56,720 --> 01:16:00,160 Speaker 1: is now, he made progress. Polk doesn't feel like or 1692 01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:01,679 Speaker 1: I mean, this is what he was limited in the spring. 1693 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 1: He didn't do any real team drills in the spring. 1694 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 1: He's not doing it now. There is no progress there. 1695 01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:08,200 Speaker 1: Maybe there's progress within that, but it's not a lot. 1696 01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:10,439 Speaker 1: Do they put him on pup or do they wait 1697 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:12,000 Speaker 1: till the end? It can't put him on IR and 1698 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 1: do you want to count that as making the team 1699 01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:16,840 Speaker 1: or not? But like not on the initial fifty three 1700 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:17,519 Speaker 1: but still here? 1701 01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, agreed? All right? David and Span emails and he 1702 01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:22,439 Speaker 2: has a bone to pick with me, which I know 1703 01:16:22,479 --> 01:16:24,880 Speaker 2: you love when people have bones suspected me. He does 1704 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:27,040 Speaker 2: love our show. I know you do, David, you're a 1705 01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:29,920 Speaker 2: longtime listener. I appreciate that. So this is going back 1706 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:32,000 Speaker 2: to the draft. So we're putting training camp to the 1707 01:16:32,040 --> 01:16:33,720 Speaker 2: side for a second. We're going back to the draft. 1708 01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:35,280 Speaker 2: And this is a little long, So do you bear 1709 01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:37,840 Speaker 2: with me here? So he says that I have a 1710 01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:41,040 Speaker 2: huge bone to pick with Evan about the Henderson versus 1711 01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:45,080 Speaker 2: Luther Burden debate, which is a debate like that they 1712 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 2: could have picked either one of those. 1713 01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 1: They were never drafting Luther Burt, but they will discuss the. 1714 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 2: Two even even I hate when people do that, and 1715 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:55,639 Speaker 2: I just did it to myself. Evan said that if 1716 01:16:55,680 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 2: Burden became a star player, people would forget about the 1717 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:01,519 Speaker 2: circumstances and quotes why the Patriots didn't pick him, and 1718 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:04,280 Speaker 2: the culture problem in quotes again, which is a big 1719 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 2: sea concern pre draft, and I call it bs Evan. 1720 01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:10,719 Speaker 2: I still stand by that. If let me finish the email, 1721 01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:13,559 Speaker 2: then we can we can Rebut if it was a 1722 01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:16,400 Speaker 2: perennial playoff team that drabbed him, then I would understand 1723 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:18,880 Speaker 2: your point. But it's no other than the Chicago Bears, 1724 01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:21,000 Speaker 2: another team with the first year head coach and a 1725 01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:23,240 Speaker 2: culture problem, especially in that wider serier room with the 1726 01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:26,320 Speaker 2: attitude of DJ Moore. Okay, if Burton becomes a star, 1727 01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:28,439 Speaker 2: he'll be considered a better pick than Henderson due to 1728 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:31,479 Speaker 2: positional value, and there are no excuses. I love Henderson 1729 01:17:31,520 --> 01:17:33,600 Speaker 2: and still believe he's a great pick, but that is 1730 01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:36,000 Speaker 2: the reality of the Chicago has rolled the dice that 1731 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 2: the Patriots chose not to and the outcome has not 1732 01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:40,720 Speaker 2: been seen. Okay, I don't really understand the point here 1733 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:41,439 Speaker 2: that he's made. 1734 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:42,680 Speaker 1: Right, No, it sounds like he agrees with you, Like 1735 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:46,280 Speaker 1: you know, if Burton's good, people are gonna harp on that, 1736 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:48,800 Speaker 1: just like they harped on them. They forgot with Lad mccaukey. 1737 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:52,160 Speaker 1: Lad mccaukeye at a back injury, yeah, Ladd mccaukee at 1738 01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:55,920 Speaker 1: a history of injury issues like chronic injury issues that 1739 01:17:56,040 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 1: I don't I can't sit here and tell you that's 1740 01:17:58,040 --> 01:17:59,640 Speaker 1: why the Patriots didn't take him. I don't know. I 1741 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:01,920 Speaker 1: wasn't in a room. That's part of the reason he 1742 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:03,679 Speaker 1: fell as far as he did. And there were teams 1743 01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:06,760 Speaker 1: that had him ranked much lower because of the injuries. Yeah, 1744 01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 1: but we forget about that because he's a good player. 1745 01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:11,200 Speaker 1: Because it worked out. So yeah, no, same thing's gonna 1746 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:12,840 Speaker 1: happen with Burden. I forget which side of it you 1747 01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 1: were on, but that's how. 1748 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:15,680 Speaker 2: I was on that side. Yeah, Like I said that, 1749 01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:18,519 Speaker 2: if the one the comparison I always come back to 1750 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:22,080 Speaker 2: because to me, this is the one that that grinds 1751 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,360 Speaker 2: my gears the most is George Pickens. 1752 01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: Like George Pickens, George Pickens would not have worked here. 1753 01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 2: It's a different time period of Patriots football, a different era, 1754 01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:34,680 Speaker 2: but it's the same thing. Like George Pickens came into 1755 01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:36,080 Speaker 2: the league, he was hurt. First of all, he had 1756 01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 2: an injury. That's different from Luther Burden. But George Pickens 1757 01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:40,880 Speaker 2: had towards a cl in college. He didn't play a 1758 01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:43,320 Speaker 2: ton of college football. But on top of that, he 1759 01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:45,960 Speaker 2: also had some concerns about character. He had some characters. 1760 01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:47,559 Speaker 1: I mean, he also didn't play because he got suspended 1761 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 1: a couple. 1762 01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 2: Yes, they were a legit character concerns, which by the way, 1763 01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 2: pretty much followed him to Pittsburgh too. But like I know, 1764 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 2: he's productive when he plays, but he kind of wore 1765 01:18:56,840 --> 01:18:58,639 Speaker 2: it as welcome in Pittsburgh as well, and that's why 1766 01:18:58,640 --> 01:19:03,920 Speaker 2: he's not there anymore. So all that being said, Uh, 1767 01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:07,360 Speaker 2: nobody looks at the George Pickens draft and says the 1768 01:19:07,400 --> 01:19:11,280 Speaker 2: Patriots were right to pass on George Pickens because if 1769 01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 2: his attitude problems or his character concerns, they only look 1770 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 2: at the production that George Pickens has had in Pittsburgh 1771 01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:20,000 Speaker 2: and will probably have in Dallas and use it against 1772 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 2: the Patriots. It's like this big thing. That's what I 1773 01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:24,000 Speaker 2: was saying about burden. It burden goes on to be 1774 01:19:24,040 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 2: George Pickens in Chicago and he's a he's a you know, 1775 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:29,360 Speaker 2: brand name. I don't know if George Pickens is a star, 1776 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:30,920 Speaker 2: but like he's a good player. 1777 01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:32,839 Speaker 1: Uh that tackle on Thorne. 1778 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:36,120 Speaker 2: We are going to be taught and Treyvon Henderson could 1779 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:38,880 Speaker 2: be equally as good. And maybe this will go away. 1780 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:42,280 Speaker 1: I will because a running back versus receiver. But people say, 1781 01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:44,400 Speaker 1: what would you rather have the star receiver start running back? 1782 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:47,080 Speaker 1: But it won't be as loud, it won't But and 1783 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:48,840 Speaker 1: but at least for me, I don't want to speak 1784 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:51,479 Speaker 1: forre you for me, it's not to excuse it, it's 1785 01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 1: just you. 1786 01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:53,519 Speaker 2: I hate. 1787 01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:56,559 Speaker 1: You can't grade the draft. I don't want to say 1788 01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,639 Speaker 1: you can't grade the draft. Retroactively, but like, you can't 1789 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 1: ignore that. You could argue, oh, they shouldn't care so 1790 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:07,800 Speaker 1: much about these character things and they should have taken them, 1791 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:10,320 Speaker 1: But you can't sit there and say, why didn't they 1792 01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,959 Speaker 1: take them? We know why they didn't take George Pickens. 1793 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,280 Speaker 1: We were pretty good idea why they didn't take George Pickens. 1794 01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:17,160 Speaker 1: Were a pretty good idea why they didn't take Luther Burden. 1795 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:20,160 Speaker 1: If you want to say that they're weighing certain things 1796 01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 1: more than they should be weighing them, that's a fair argument. 1797 01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:26,240 Speaker 1: But you can't say, oh, you know, they thought he sucked. 1798 01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:29,519 Speaker 1: You know, they blew the evaluation right, because that's not 1799 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:33,560 Speaker 1: by all reporting, that's not what happened. Yeah, they we 1800 01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:35,320 Speaker 1: do this all the time. At the draft, they didn't 1801 01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:37,880 Speaker 1: believe the guy. So I feel like the medical. 1802 01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:43,720 Speaker 2: Misunderstood or because misheard me. I don't know, maybe I 1803 01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 2: did a bad job of explaining it. I was saying 1804 01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:49,080 Speaker 2: that if Luther Burden goes on to be a star player, 1805 01:20:49,720 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 2: nobody's going to care that Luther Burden had character concerns 1806 01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:54,160 Speaker 2: coming out of college. It's going to be the Patriots 1807 01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:56,599 Speaker 2: passed on another star receiver, and it was Luther Burdon. 1808 01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:59,200 Speaker 2: We're gonna be putting him in the category of AJ 1809 01:20:59,360 --> 01:21:03,839 Speaker 2: Brown and a DK Metcalf and Terry McLaurin and George 1810 01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:06,519 Speaker 2: Pickens and like all the other ones that everybody always 1811 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:08,519 Speaker 2: talks about all the time. 1812 01:21:08,640 --> 01:21:11,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. I'll a get I'll even throw Latin 1813 01:21:11,120 --> 01:21:13,680 Speaker 1: Conky in her. I was hasn't about Latin Conking, not 1814 01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 1: because I thought he couldn't play because he the injuries. Yeah, 1815 01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:18,519 Speaker 1: he had pretty significant and maybe they still come up. 1816 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 1: Malcolm Mitchell had a really good first year, right, right, 1817 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:23,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not talking much better for it, right and 1818 01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,720 Speaker 1: I'm not rooting for it. But like, you gotta go 1819 01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 1: back to the moment the pick was made. You can't 1820 01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:31,320 Speaker 1: just throw away I get it. We see what these 1821 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:33,800 Speaker 1: players do and ultimately you're gonna look at that retroactively. 1822 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:36,679 Speaker 1: You can't throw away all the contact, all the contacts 1823 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:40,160 Speaker 1: that existed when the pick was made. Either. That's not fair. 1824 01:21:40,439 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 2: Okay, So some more bones to pick with me. Today. 1825 01:21:42,840 --> 01:21:45,400 Speaker 2: It was a big day for dogs, big day for dogs. 1826 01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 2: I think like twenty dogs got really good. I think 1827 01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:51,400 Speaker 2: something like that. Twenty dogs got adopted. 1828 01:21:52,040 --> 01:21:55,400 Speaker 1: So when I Vrabel took that was it uh neat. 1829 01:21:55,479 --> 01:21:57,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I looked like anything like that. Stefan Diggs 1830 01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:02,000 Speaker 2: certainly liked the dog he was dogged in, Like, so, uh, 1831 01:22:03,240 --> 01:22:05,800 Speaker 2: Paul is not a dog guy, okay, and I'm a 1832 01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 2: big dog guy. As you know, Fred is a dog guy. 1833 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:10,639 Speaker 2: He has a dog, and Duce just adopted a dog 1834 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:13,280 Speaker 2: a couple of months ago, so he's adopting a dog 1835 01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 2: lifestyle as well. So Paul is the only curmudgeon that 1836 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:19,160 Speaker 2: doesn't like dogs. So today we were talking about what 1837 01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:21,640 Speaker 2: would be the best breed of dog to give to 1838 01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:26,559 Speaker 2: Paul because Paul was a very much you know, he's lukewarm. 1839 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,720 Speaker 2: He's not gonna get a dog, but hypothetically he would 1840 01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:31,880 Speaker 2: be lukewarm on the idea at best if he did 1841 01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 2: get a dog. And plus, like I think for Paul, 1842 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 2: the key dog for him would be like a low 1843 01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 2: maintenance dog because he's a first time dog owner, so 1844 01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:43,040 Speaker 2: you can't give him And not trying to brag, but 1845 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:45,800 Speaker 2: like if you get an Atlas, like you get a 1846 01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 2: ridge Back like that's not a beginner dog like they do. 1847 01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,920 Speaker 2: You have to really love dogs to have dogs like that, right, 1848 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:55,680 Speaker 2: So I said that he should get a lab or 1849 01:22:55,720 --> 01:23:00,240 Speaker 2: a retriever because labs and retrievers to me are low 1850 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:03,599 Speaker 2: maintenance type of dogs. Now, the emailer here says Evan's 1851 01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:06,720 Speaker 2: dog advice is disastrous. Yeah, and he said labs and 1852 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,920 Speaker 2: retrievers are high energy dogs, not the highest but definitely 1853 01:23:09,920 --> 01:23:11,040 Speaker 2: on the high end of the spectrum. 1854 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,240 Speaker 1: Golden retrievers are higher energy dogs. That is true. 1855 01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,759 Speaker 2: Great Danes are loafers. Yes, Great Danes are loafers. Giving 1856 01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:19,559 Speaker 2: a first time dog owner one hundred and thirty pound 1857 01:23:19,680 --> 01:23:22,160 Speaker 2: dog is not the right There's a difference between high 1858 01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:25,479 Speaker 2: energy and high maintenance, yes, so right, So high energy 1859 01:23:25,479 --> 01:23:27,479 Speaker 2: to me is also like there's different and I know 1860 01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 2: it's not dog show, but high energy to me is 1861 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 2: also different. Like there's different definitions because maybe like on 1862 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 2: the spectrum of energy here for dogs, labs and retrievers 1863 01:23:38,479 --> 01:23:40,880 Speaker 2: might might be awake for longer than other dogs, right, 1864 01:23:40,920 --> 01:23:43,559 Speaker 2: which would maybe consider them to be higher energy. But 1865 01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:46,400 Speaker 2: like Atlas needs to be exercised, like you need to 1866 01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 2: take that dog on walks or to play out in 1867 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 2: fields and parks and things like that. Like retrievers and 1868 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 2: labs like they're just kind of they're kind of just 1869 01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:56,880 Speaker 2: chilling around, right, Like they might be up. 1870 01:23:56,920 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 1: Now, I like to jump right. Golden Retrievers. They over 1871 01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:02,599 Speaker 1: run around and it's high maintenance. 1872 01:24:03,479 --> 01:24:05,400 Speaker 2: How is it high maintenance for the. 1873 01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:07,120 Speaker 4: Exact same reason that you got to take care of 1874 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:09,639 Speaker 4: at list. It's gotta be the energy has to be spent. 1875 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:12,200 Speaker 4: We gotta take My girlfriend takes her to the gym 1876 01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 4: every day, so that's the only thing that calms her down. 1877 01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:16,960 Speaker 3: She's a nightmare. 1878 01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,639 Speaker 2: That that that I mean, Alice gets along really well 1879 01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:24,759 Speaker 2: with with Labs, maybe because they can match the energy 1880 01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:27,559 Speaker 2: of each other. But like to me, like you know 1881 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:29,640 Speaker 2: that that that was what I more meant was like, 1882 01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:32,599 Speaker 2: Paul needs a beginner dog, like the energy thing. People 1883 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 2: are getting caught up in that. Maybe I misspoke on that, but. 1884 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:37,519 Speaker 3: Tricks. 1885 01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:39,800 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, now Paul's not getting a dog, Like there's 1886 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,360 Speaker 2: no way. But I'm just saying, you know, if I 1887 01:24:43,400 --> 01:24:45,000 Speaker 2: had to give Paul a dog, it would be one 1888 01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:48,120 Speaker 2: of those types of dogs. Anyways, there's your dog minute, 1889 01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:51,720 Speaker 2: because we had to because you know, dog day. Here, okay, 1890 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 2: here's an email from Stevie. Stevie Steve. He said, how 1891 01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 2: would you compare Mac Jones to Drake Man the offensive line? 1892 01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:01,920 Speaker 2: Mac had his rookie year and the offensive line Drake 1893 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 2: may is projected to have this year. This is an 1894 01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:06,960 Speaker 2: interesting question, so we've talked about this a little bit 1895 01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:11,800 Speaker 2: in the past, but Mac Jones's rookie season, correct me 1896 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:18,879 Speaker 2: if I'm wrong, but that was Win, Carris, Andrews, Mason, 1897 01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:21,439 Speaker 2: Trent Brown. Well, I want to say that was. 1898 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,120 Speaker 1: The year that they switched it part way through with 1899 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:25,920 Speaker 1: Carris and benched on when who remember they. 1900 01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:27,559 Speaker 2: Game get it right when it was supposed to be 1901 01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:30,080 Speaker 2: the projected left guard was supposed to be the starting 1902 01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:31,880 Speaker 2: left guard and he did not have a great season 1903 01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:33,400 Speaker 2: at left guard. 1904 01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:35,599 Speaker 1: Right and so they moved it a runt hang on. 1905 01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:37,559 Speaker 2: Home Teddy Carris went to left guard. I know that 1906 01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:40,639 Speaker 2: David Andrews was obviously the center. I want to say 1907 01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:43,040 Speaker 2: that was the year Trent Brown played right tackle and 1908 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:45,479 Speaker 2: not left and Isaiah Win was at left tackle because 1909 01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:47,840 Speaker 2: they were still trying to make Isaiah Win a thing 1910 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:50,639 Speaker 2: and trying to get that to work. So I think 1911 01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 2: that was the group. 1912 01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 1: So their most use offensive linemen that year were Isaiah Win, 1913 01:25:57,200 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 1: Trent Brown, and Justin Haran kind of split as the 1914 01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:04,439 Speaker 1: second can tackle that was close on whenu Shaq Mason, 1915 01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:06,599 Speaker 1: David Andrews and Ted Carris, like, those are the guys 1916 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,479 Speaker 1: that played the most some combination of that. So I 1917 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:11,360 Speaker 1: want to say it was remember William Sherman. 1918 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:13,839 Speaker 2: Yes, I want to say it was like six snaps 1919 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:19,839 Speaker 2: that year from left to right, Win Carris, Andrews, Mason, 1920 01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:22,360 Speaker 2: Trent Brown, slash Uh. 1921 01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:25,559 Speaker 1: Just Justin Haran played almost as much as Trent Brown, 1922 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:28,080 Speaker 1: did they jeez? Okay, which I think was on the 1923 01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:29,800 Speaker 1: right or no? Did he step in for Win when 1924 01:26:29,800 --> 01:26:32,720 Speaker 1: he was hurt? I don't know this year, so Justin 1925 01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:33,839 Speaker 1: Haran played good amountain. 1926 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:35,880 Speaker 2: I know that that group was like the group when 1927 01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:39,519 Speaker 2: everybody was healthy though, Okay, so that was that group. 1928 01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:46,639 Speaker 2: This group is projected will Campbell, Cole Strange, probably Garrett 1929 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:49,640 Speaker 2: Bradbury to start, maybe Jared Wilson at center on w 1930 01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 2: Morgan moses that that's just year's group. I'm gonna say 1931 01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:57,280 Speaker 2: this year's group has the potential to be better. 1932 01:26:57,160 --> 01:26:58,960 Speaker 1: Has the potential. There's more variance because you have won 1933 01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:02,120 Speaker 1: maybe two rookies. Because I look at and kind of 1934 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:05,600 Speaker 1: think that's a wash. Yeah, I look at it. Trump 1935 01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:06,160 Speaker 1: Brown's better. 1936 01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:08,880 Speaker 2: I don't know. Trump Brown is so inconsistent. 1937 01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:12,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, than a thirty five year old Morgan Moses. 1938 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 2: On when you and Mason. I'd probably give it to Mason. 1939 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:17,760 Speaker 2: I think Mason was a better player, but I don't 1940 01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:19,000 Speaker 2: think it was like world's better. 1941 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:20,120 Speaker 1: That's not a massive gap. 1942 01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:23,280 Speaker 2: We're not talking about like you know, Zach Martin here 1943 01:27:23,439 --> 01:27:27,200 Speaker 2: like a good player. Shaq Mason center, definitely David Andrews 1944 01:27:27,240 --> 01:27:32,120 Speaker 2: obviously left guard, Carris versus Strange. I probably give that 1945 01:27:32,160 --> 01:27:32,880 Speaker 2: one to Carris. 1946 01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:35,320 Speaker 1: Maybe that Max Shownes's line is better, and then I 1947 01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:37,800 Speaker 1: give I say Will Campbell, I say, well, Campbell too, 1948 01:27:38,320 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 1: but like that's so the one guy we're giving it 1949 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:42,479 Speaker 1: this year. But also so the weird thing with that 1950 01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:45,960 Speaker 1: line was it took forever because that wasn't the line 1951 01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:48,799 Speaker 1: from the start of the season. They kept moving players, 1952 01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:51,160 Speaker 1: they kept moving pieces, and they didn't have the continuity. 1953 01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:55,400 Speaker 1: So this year's group should have continuity. On paper, that 1954 01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:57,040 Speaker 1: line may be better because the next year is when 1955 01:27:57,040 --> 01:27:59,960 Speaker 1: it really fell apart, but this team has a bet 1956 01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:00,879 Speaker 1: or left tackle. 1957 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:02,439 Speaker 2: And they had better coaching that year, Like that's the 1958 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:04,920 Speaker 2: your Carmen Brisilla was the offensive line coach. Well, I 1959 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:08,200 Speaker 2: think is a really good coach. Josh McDaniels was obviously 1960 01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:11,479 Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator. So you would like to think that 1961 01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:14,080 Speaker 2: they have a similar setup this year with Moron and 1962 01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:17,120 Speaker 2: McDaniels that you feel good about the coaching side of it, 1963 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:19,160 Speaker 2: And that's a big part of it with the offensive line. 1964 01:28:19,200 --> 01:28:21,240 Speaker 2: You know, how do you game plan, how do you scheme? 1965 01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:25,000 Speaker 2: How do you solve problems? Like is everybody on the 1966 01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:26,960 Speaker 2: same page? Are you seeing it through the same set 1967 01:28:26,960 --> 01:28:29,000 Speaker 2: of eyes? If you can do those things and eliminate 1968 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:33,240 Speaker 2: all the unforced errors as an offensive line, you can 1969 01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:36,040 Speaker 2: be a league average just by being getting out of 1970 01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:38,439 Speaker 2: your own way as an offensive line. I think that's 1971 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:41,280 Speaker 2: what we all hope for this year's offensive line. And 1972 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:45,479 Speaker 2: I was watching Fortune Foxborough the other day, episode two, 1973 01:28:45,520 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 2: which is now out on Patriots dot Com and YouTube. 1974 01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:51,400 Speaker 2: They spend a lot of time with the offensive line, 1975 01:28:51,800 --> 01:28:53,639 Speaker 2: and I know for some people that puts you to sleep, 1976 01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:56,439 Speaker 2: and you're not offensive line people. But the Morgan Moses 1977 01:28:56,960 --> 01:28:59,160 Speaker 2: post practice sessions and it was a great part of 1978 01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:01,240 Speaker 2: this great stuff, and it's good to see all these 1979 01:29:01,280 --> 01:29:03,439 Speaker 2: line coaches. And I think the thing that stood out 1980 01:29:03,439 --> 01:29:06,280 Speaker 2: to me, you Morone is obviously a season coach. He's 1981 01:29:06,320 --> 01:29:08,240 Speaker 2: been a head coach in the league he's been a 1982 01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:11,360 Speaker 2: line coach in the league multiple times. Jason Howdling, who 1983 01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:14,479 Speaker 2: got a lot of FaceTime on Fortune Foxborough as well, 1984 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:18,439 Speaker 2: he's been a chief offensive line coach as well, Like 1985 01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,840 Speaker 2: he's run the room himself too. So you basically have 1986 01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 2: three guys if you want to count Kugler, who are 1987 01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 2: probably qualified to be offensive line coaches. And they're all 1988 01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:33,479 Speaker 2: on the same staff. So that's a big change from 1989 01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:35,759 Speaker 2: the line coaches they've had the last couple of years, 1990 01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:40,519 Speaker 2: no disrespect. So I think that that's a really positive thing. 1991 01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:43,479 Speaker 2: And when I look at the way that I envisioned 1992 01:29:43,600 --> 01:29:47,639 Speaker 2: this being broken out, Doug Morone, I think is going 1993 01:29:47,680 --> 01:29:51,600 Speaker 2: to be handling a lot of scheming type stuff like 1994 01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 2: high level you know, game planning, install weekly installed with 1995 01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:59,839 Speaker 2: Josh McDaniels, and we want to we watched this defense 1996 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,200 Speaker 2: we're gonna face on Sunday hypothetically, and we want to 1997 01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:05,559 Speaker 2: have these runs in you know, these are the runs 1998 01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:07,439 Speaker 2: that we want to have in the installo. How are 1999 01:30:07,479 --> 01:30:09,439 Speaker 2: we going to block them? You know? What are our rules? 2000 01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:11,760 Speaker 2: That's where Doug Moron comes in. I think when it 2001 01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:15,320 Speaker 2: comes to teaching technique and like really getting in there 2002 01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 2: and hands On, I think it's gonna be a lot 2003 01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:20,639 Speaker 2: of Jason Haddling and Robert Coogler. I think those guys 2004 01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:23,519 Speaker 2: are the guys that are gonna be really teaching, like 2005 01:30:24,040 --> 01:30:26,759 Speaker 2: the minutia, you know, and taking guys to the side, 2006 01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,640 Speaker 2: and like working on rookies and back end of the 2007 01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:32,639 Speaker 2: roster development and things like that, whereas Moron, I think, 2008 01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:34,800 Speaker 2: is gonna be more of like an overseer, almost like 2009 01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:38,720 Speaker 2: a court offensive line coordinator. So I'm looking forward to 2010 01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:42,439 Speaker 2: seeing how that comes together, because on paper, it's so 2011 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:45,880 Speaker 2: much more seasoned and so much more just just better 2012 01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:47,960 Speaker 2: than what they've had over the last couple of years. 2013 01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:50,960 Speaker 2: So hopefully that elevates that room as well. A couple 2014 01:30:50,960 --> 01:30:54,679 Speaker 2: more emails here before we will take some phone calls, 2015 01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:56,840 Speaker 2: and then we'll wrap it up here. I am a 2016 01:30:56,840 --> 01:31:00,519 Speaker 2: long time listener from Mexico, says Alonzo when he says, 2017 01:31:00,760 --> 01:31:03,040 Speaker 2: my question for you guys is based on the comments 2018 01:31:03,080 --> 01:31:06,160 Speaker 2: I've seen on X, it seems that Kaishan Boody was 2019 01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:09,400 Speaker 2: running as the top X receiver with the first team. 2020 01:31:09,439 --> 01:31:12,040 Speaker 2: Why do you think the entire media landscape is so 2021 01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:15,840 Speaker 2: low on Booty while the team seems to view him 2022 01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:18,640 Speaker 2: hot quite differently. I don't know if the media is 2023 01:31:18,680 --> 01:31:19,200 Speaker 2: super low. 2024 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:21,000 Speaker 1: I don't think we're low. We're just not as high 2025 01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:22,280 Speaker 1: as people want us to be. 2026 01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:27,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that I'm not saying necessarily that he 2027 01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:32,200 Speaker 2: can't get even better. Yeah, but I think a lot 2028 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:35,120 Speaker 2: of us feel that last year was Kasehan Boody's peak, 2029 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:37,200 Speaker 2: and that's not a bad peak. If he can maintain it, 2030 01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:40,479 Speaker 2: that's an NFL player. Yeah, But I don't know if 2031 01:31:40,520 --> 01:31:44,080 Speaker 2: there's another level for Kashan Boody necessarily than what we 2032 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:47,960 Speaker 2: saw last season. So in that respect, could they do 2033 01:31:48,040 --> 01:31:52,599 Speaker 2: better at that spot? I think is really just the question. 2034 01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:54,720 Speaker 1: I think it's also I mean, he was brought up 2035 01:31:54,760 --> 01:31:59,360 Speaker 1: in trade rumors before the start of the season, so 2036 01:31:59,439 --> 01:32:01,639 Speaker 1: that tells you that maybe as high as the team 2037 01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:03,360 Speaker 1: is on him, they could see him as the odd 2038 01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:07,160 Speaker 1: man out. Also, his consistency with him, right, he has 2039 01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:10,080 Speaker 1: really good individual days, but he's got a stack days. 2040 01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:11,840 Speaker 1: That's what it's gonna come down to. So when he 2041 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:13,519 Speaker 1: has a great day, yeah, we talk about it, but 2042 01:32:13,560 --> 01:32:16,680 Speaker 1: it also comes with, you know, to contrast him to 2043 01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:18,960 Speaker 1: Pop Douglas, who was that same draft class. Pop Douglas 2044 01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:20,960 Speaker 1: is coming out every single day and we were you know, 2045 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:22,880 Speaker 1: there were moments every single day that you were like, Wow, 2046 01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:25,280 Speaker 1: this kid has it in Keisehan Boudia some of those, 2047 01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:26,920 Speaker 1: but then he has some days where he kind of disappears, 2048 01:32:27,320 --> 01:32:28,720 Speaker 1: and so that's what it comes down to for him. 2049 01:32:28,760 --> 01:32:31,400 Speaker 1: He just has to be more consistent. I think fancy 2050 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:33,680 Speaker 1: the flashes and get very excited. And maybe this is 2051 01:32:33,680 --> 01:32:36,439 Speaker 1: where the disconnect is with the media, But you know, 2052 01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:39,080 Speaker 1: we're kind of watching more on a down to down basis, 2053 01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,760 Speaker 1: and there's times where he disappears. So look for a 2054 01:32:41,800 --> 01:32:45,559 Speaker 1: third receiver. Sometimes you're going off flashes and there's nothing 2055 01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:48,120 Speaker 1: wrong with that. And I do think, like, I don't 2056 01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:50,240 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get cut. I don't think the team 2057 01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:52,000 Speaker 1: would cut him. I think they do like him. I 2058 01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:53,519 Speaker 1: also think if there's a large jam and they can 2059 01:32:53,520 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 1: get something for him, the wouldn't turn their nose up 2060 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:58,200 Speaker 1: at it. So that's kind of where I'm at on him. 2061 01:32:58,479 --> 01:33:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't that we're that low. I think the expectations 2062 01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:05,320 Speaker 1: for him because and look, maybe I'm partially at fault 2063 01:33:05,320 --> 01:33:06,960 Speaker 1: for this because I really liked him in the draft 2064 01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:10,880 Speaker 1: that year, like he he was such a good player 2065 01:33:10,880 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 1: at LSU. The expectations room were so high coming from LSU. 2066 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:17,360 Speaker 1: You talk about that ceiling. I think some people, look, 2067 01:33:17,360 --> 01:33:23,040 Speaker 1: I've kind of wondered, this is that breakout star freshman player. 2068 01:33:23,160 --> 01:33:25,280 Speaker 1: And I mean, that's what five six years ago. Now, 2069 01:33:25,439 --> 01:33:28,320 Speaker 1: it's been a long time, but is there still an 2070 01:33:28,360 --> 01:33:30,759 Speaker 1: ability to tap into that? And I think some people 2071 01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:32,960 Speaker 1: just see that And I'm not saying you're wrong to 2072 01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:35,679 Speaker 1: do it, like we all do this with certain players. Again, 2073 01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:38,799 Speaker 1: as a true freshman LCU ten games, forty five catches, 2074 01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 1: seven hundred and thirty five yards, five touchdowns, caught nine 2075 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:43,080 Speaker 1: touchdowns the next year in just six games. 2076 01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:45,960 Speaker 2: I mean he was his freshman year of LSU. He 2077 01:33:46,040 --> 01:33:48,320 Speaker 2: was on track to be the next LSU receiver, right. 2078 01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:50,479 Speaker 1: He was supposed to be that guy. So I think 2079 01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:53,240 Speaker 1: there's some people that look at that and just still 2080 01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:55,000 Speaker 1: wonder if that's in there and if they can tap 2081 01:33:55,040 --> 01:33:56,599 Speaker 1: into that. And I've wondered it too, and it would 2082 01:33:56,640 --> 01:34:01,120 Speaker 1: be great. I just don't think you build the offense 2083 01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:04,160 Speaker 1: around maybe we tap into this guy he was that 2084 01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:07,360 Speaker 1: was twenty twenty, yeah, right, so you don't build the 2085 01:34:07,360 --> 01:34:09,680 Speaker 1: offense around can we tap into this guy that he 2086 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:10,639 Speaker 1: was five years ago? 2087 01:34:10,840 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? And I you know, he had forty three catches 2088 01:34:14,040 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 2: for a little under six hundred yards last year. Again, 2089 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 2: that's not terrible production, that's NFL production. But that to 2090 01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:25,720 Speaker 2: me feels like where he would about fill in right 2091 01:34:25,800 --> 01:34:28,400 Speaker 2: like that in terms of a peak. Now, he might 2092 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:30,559 Speaker 2: maintain it for a couple more years, and that's great, 2093 01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:33,000 Speaker 2: that's a good career. But I don't know if he 2094 01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:35,479 Speaker 2: has another level there. So I think that's maybe where 2095 01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:37,680 Speaker 2: the disconnect is there with the emailer. 2096 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:39,120 Speaker 1: Right, it's does he have another level or not? 2097 01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:42,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, seanav Vancouver writes, and I'm glad he wrote in 2098 01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:45,439 Speaker 2: this email because we should say rip to the legend. 2099 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,479 Speaker 2: I'm happy to hear that crazy Train remains as the 2100 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:52,800 Speaker 2: intro song. Sean said, Rip Ozzy go Pats, Yes, rip 2101 01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:55,280 Speaker 2: to the legend Ozzy Osbourne. 2102 01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:55,960 Speaker 5: That was. 2103 01:34:57,800 --> 01:35:00,680 Speaker 2: Bad news yesterday. That was tough, all right, this is 2104 01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:00,960 Speaker 2: Do you. 2105 01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:03,320 Speaker 1: See any of his favoritwell constantly? He still sounded good 2106 01:35:03,400 --> 01:35:04,240 Speaker 1: right up until the end. 2107 01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:06,280 Speaker 2: Really yeah. 2108 01:35:06,840 --> 01:35:09,240 Speaker 1: I was never like a huge Ozzy Osbourne guy, but 2109 01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:11,040 Speaker 1: I mean that that's history, right. I checked out that 2110 01:35:11,080 --> 01:35:14,800 Speaker 1: farewell concert. He did that impressive for a guy that's 2111 01:35:14,840 --> 01:35:16,240 Speaker 1: up there and has had some health issues. I think 2112 01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:23,280 Speaker 1: he's dealing with Parkinson's right. Impressive, I gotta say, uh not. 2113 01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:27,040 Speaker 2: I was kind of surprised he lasted twenty more years, 2114 01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:29,719 Speaker 2: Like there was some rough moments there for Ozzy Osbourne 2115 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:33,160 Speaker 2: in like the five six range, you know, health wise, 2116 01:35:33,320 --> 01:35:35,200 Speaker 2: and he held on for a long time. 2117 01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:36,519 Speaker 1: Just to go back to Keishan Boutiga. And this is 2118 01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:41,920 Speaker 1: kind of my point, like last year being his ceiling, 2119 01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:44,280 Speaker 1: how does he get better again? It comes down to consistency. 2120 01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:49,799 Speaker 1: So last year, forty six percent of his offensive production 2121 01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:53,559 Speaker 1: in terms of yards came in just three games. In 2122 01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:55,200 Speaker 1: one of those games when he had one hundred and 2123 01:35:55,200 --> 01:35:59,080 Speaker 1: seventeen was the week eighteen game against Buffalo. He had 2124 01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 1: ninety five. In the other game against Buffalo fifty nine 2125 01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:04,280 Speaker 1: against Houston. He never had more than forty seven outside 2126 01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:08,200 Speaker 1: of that in one, two, three, four, five, six, seven eight. 2127 01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:10,360 Speaker 1: In nine games he had less than forty yards. 2128 01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:12,559 Speaker 2: So I'm not saying he has to go going back 2129 01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:14,479 Speaker 2: to that twenty twenty season at LS. You didn't he 2130 01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:16,639 Speaker 2: have that one game was against like I want to say, 2131 01:36:16,720 --> 01:36:17,439 Speaker 2: South Caros. 2132 01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:20,640 Speaker 1: Well, the team started just like throwing the library. 2133 01:36:20,280 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 2: I know, but wasn't there that one game where he 2134 01:36:21,960 --> 01:36:24,760 Speaker 2: had like three hundred for three touchdowns, like he had 2135 01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:25,640 Speaker 2: like one of those types of thing. 2136 01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:28,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't think teams are shading Kaishawn Booty 2137 01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:30,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL the way they were shading him at LSU. Like, yeah, 2138 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:32,920 Speaker 1: there were some games like he was the next guy. 2139 01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:34,920 Speaker 1: There were some games you watch that was being covered 2140 01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:37,000 Speaker 1: in the fact that he did anything. He had well 2141 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:38,920 Speaker 1: that had the Old Miss game at the end of 2142 01:36:38,920 --> 01:36:40,640 Speaker 1: the year, he had fourteen catches for three hundred eight 2143 01:36:40,720 --> 01:36:42,840 Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns. But the games before that, he 2144 01:36:42,880 --> 01:36:44,800 Speaker 1: had one hundred eight against Florida and he had one 2145 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:47,640 Speaker 1: hundred eleven against Alabama the game before that. Yeah, So 2146 01:36:48,040 --> 01:36:50,320 Speaker 1: I mean that's pretty good. It's just gonna come down 2147 01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:51,559 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying he has to have one hundred 2148 01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:53,760 Speaker 1: and ten yards every game, but it is kind of 2149 01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:57,000 Speaker 1: George Pickens ish, where George Pickens will put up a 2150 01:36:57,080 --> 01:37:00,120 Speaker 1: thousand yards in a season, six hundred of those yard 2151 01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:02,200 Speaker 1: will be in like four games, and then he'll have 2152 01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:05,559 Speaker 1: games where he's entirely blanked. So you know, Kaishawn Booty 2153 01:37:05,640 --> 01:37:07,640 Speaker 1: had more games this year where he had less than 2154 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:10,240 Speaker 1: twenty receiving yards that he had more than fifty. And 2155 01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:12,400 Speaker 1: I get not every game has to be one hundred yards, 2156 01:37:12,640 --> 01:37:14,439 Speaker 1: but you gotta be a little more steady than that 2157 01:37:14,920 --> 01:37:17,599 Speaker 1: to play a you know, consistent role in the offense, 2158 01:37:17,640 --> 01:37:19,559 Speaker 1: to be a top three receiver guy that's out there 2159 01:37:20,040 --> 01:37:23,639 Speaker 1: sixty plus percent of the time. The way he's kind 2160 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:26,120 Speaker 1: of performed is he's the fourth guy you throw him 2161 01:37:26,120 --> 01:37:27,920 Speaker 1: in and kind of try to hit shot plays. And 2162 01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:29,439 Speaker 1: he's good at that, and there's a role for that, 2163 01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:32,479 Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong with that. I just he has 2164 01:37:32,600 --> 01:37:34,800 Speaker 1: yet to prove he's more than that, and right now 2165 01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:37,240 Speaker 1: the team has. I mean, that's what Kendrick Bourne is, 2166 01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:40,240 Speaker 1: That's what MATC Collins is. The team has a lot 2167 01:37:40,240 --> 01:37:42,880 Speaker 1: of guys like that. They don't necessarily have the guy 2168 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:45,439 Speaker 1: that's gonna go out. You can set your watch to Okay, 2169 01:37:45,439 --> 01:37:47,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna have at least five catches, gonna have at 2170 01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:48,639 Speaker 1: least eighty yards, he got a good shot, he's gonna 2171 01:37:48,640 --> 01:37:50,760 Speaker 1: get in the end zone. They you know, you hope 2172 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:56,120 Speaker 1: that's Pop Douglas or Stefon Diggs maybe right, So that 2173 01:37:56,120 --> 01:37:58,960 Speaker 1: that's if Diggs is gonna If not Diggs, if Booty's 2174 01:37:58,960 --> 01:38:01,519 Speaker 1: gonna step into a bigger role. Right, he's probably their 2175 01:38:01,520 --> 01:38:03,840 Speaker 1: top rotational guy right now. But if he's gonna step 2176 01:38:03,880 --> 01:38:06,360 Speaker 1: into a bigger role, it's about the consistency, all right. 2177 01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 5: Uh. 2178 01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:09,559 Speaker 2: David Man sends in a good email here about some 2179 01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:11,599 Speaker 2: of the holdouts or ins or whatever the heck they 2180 01:38:11,600 --> 01:38:13,639 Speaker 2: are across the league that are going on right now. 2181 01:38:14,280 --> 01:38:16,479 Speaker 2: So he lists them all out and we can kind 2182 01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:18,520 Speaker 2: of just talk about them in terms of the Patriots, 2183 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:21,760 Speaker 2: right the two he has a couple, al right, So 2184 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:24,559 Speaker 2: can you see scenario when England actually tries to trade 2185 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:27,080 Speaker 2: for one of these guys, one of these disgruntled looking 2186 01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:29,880 Speaker 2: for contract players. The first one here, I think is 2187 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:32,839 Speaker 2: the most likely not to necessarily be dealt to New England, 2188 01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:36,600 Speaker 2: but just to be dealt period, Trey Hendrickson in Cincinnati. 2189 01:38:36,680 --> 01:38:40,000 Speaker 1: So Tracks really doesn't think he's getting dealt Okay, I 2190 01:38:40,040 --> 01:38:43,479 Speaker 1: trust Tracks, but I agree with you. I mean, it's 2191 01:38:43,600 --> 01:38:47,400 Speaker 1: just the history of Cincinnati. Has they gave those those contracts, 2192 01:38:47,439 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 1: the wide receivers. I could see the Patriots being interested 2193 01:38:50,160 --> 01:38:52,599 Speaker 1: because that's what, like I just talked about, with the receivers, 2194 01:38:52,600 --> 01:38:55,719 Speaker 1: they're missing that Lynchpin guy. Same thing with the pass rush. 2195 01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:59,360 Speaker 1: Hair Lander's a good player, but he's probably a. 2196 01:38:59,240 --> 01:39:04,360 Speaker 2: Low Enderson's an elite player, right what he's an elite player, Hendrickson. 2197 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:06,559 Speaker 1: Hendrickson No, So I'm saying, like Landry's the closest they 2198 01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:09,120 Speaker 1: have to a lynch pin. But if he's a complimentary 2199 01:39:09,120 --> 01:39:11,800 Speaker 1: guy to a player like Hendrickson, right now, you're like, 2200 01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:14,720 Speaker 1: it's that coverage dictating, right, Henderson's going to dictate the 2201 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 1: blocking scheme, and I think that, you know, Mike Rabel 2202 01:39:17,320 --> 01:39:18,000 Speaker 1: wants a guy like that. 2203 01:39:18,120 --> 01:39:19,040 Speaker 2: Henderson's a beast. 2204 01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:21,160 Speaker 1: I think if Hendrickson became available, I don't know if 2205 01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:23,800 Speaker 1: the Patriots would match the pright now supposedly the issues 2206 01:39:23,840 --> 01:39:25,639 Speaker 1: the Bengals want a first round pick, which I would 2207 01:39:25,680 --> 01:39:28,800 Speaker 1: not do. I don't think anybody's gonna do. So that's ridiculous, 2208 01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:30,760 Speaker 1: and maybe he just ends up not playing this year. 2209 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:32,720 Speaker 1: But all this back and. 2210 01:39:32,680 --> 01:39:34,840 Speaker 2: Guaranteed money, as it always does in terms of the 2211 01:39:34,840 --> 01:39:36,120 Speaker 2: Bengals side of things. 2212 01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:37,600 Speaker 1: Well, but this is a little different. So it's not 2213 01:39:37,640 --> 01:39:39,679 Speaker 1: about the amount of guarant just based on the reports, 2214 01:39:39,760 --> 01:39:43,240 Speaker 1: I don't know the inside, but it's not about the 2215 01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:45,120 Speaker 1: amount of guaranteed money. I mean, that's part of it. 2216 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:51,800 Speaker 1: But what Garrett Max Crosby they got guaranteed money into 2217 01:39:51,800 --> 01:39:53,360 Speaker 1: the second and I think into the third year of 2218 01:39:53,400 --> 01:39:56,320 Speaker 1: their deals. Right, yeah, right now, it sounds like the 2219 01:39:56,360 --> 01:39:58,880 Speaker 1: Bengals are only guaranteeing money in the first year of 2220 01:39:58,920 --> 01:40:01,840 Speaker 1: the extension. Just what Hendrickson's problem is he wants long 2221 01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:02,640 Speaker 1: term security. 2222 01:40:02,960 --> 01:40:05,040 Speaker 2: Shocker in terms of the Bengals. 2223 01:40:05,120 --> 01:40:07,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, playing hard, No, And I don't fall to Hendrickson 2224 01:40:07,080 --> 01:40:08,679 Speaker 1: for wanting that, especially if those other guys got. 2225 01:40:08,600 --> 01:40:11,599 Speaker 2: It right, all right, this one. I gotta be honest 2226 01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:15,320 Speaker 2: with you. I would be absolutely floored if Terry McLaurin 2227 01:40:15,360 --> 01:40:19,400 Speaker 2: gets traded by Washington. That is, it's just not I 2228 01:40:19,439 --> 01:40:21,599 Speaker 2: don't want to go crazy, like this is not what's happening. 2229 01:40:21,600 --> 01:40:23,639 Speaker 2: I will say this, he's not getting traded. I didn't 2230 01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:24,960 Speaker 2: think he was going to hold out. I thought he 2231 01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:27,200 Speaker 2: might hold in. Yeah, I didn't think he was going 2232 01:40:27,240 --> 01:40:30,760 Speaker 2: to hold out. I was genuinely surprised the fines. You know, 2233 01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:34,160 Speaker 2: it's fifty thousand dollars a day. Now to us, that's 2234 01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:37,360 Speaker 2: that's incredible, Like, oh my, that's crazy. It's like insane 2235 01:40:37,400 --> 01:40:39,920 Speaker 2: to give up that kind of money. Now, he will 2236 01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:43,920 Speaker 2: could go out and sign thirty million dollars per year. 2237 01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:47,200 Speaker 2: So if he misses like a handful of practices and 2238 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:49,160 Speaker 2: he has to he has two hundred and fifty thousand 2239 01:40:49,200 --> 01:40:50,920 Speaker 2: dollars in fine. I think the team's going to wave 2240 01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:53,800 Speaker 2: like forty million dollars signing both. It's like it's not 2241 01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:56,599 Speaker 2: going to matter, right, and he and teams could waive it, 2242 01:40:56,920 --> 01:40:59,880 Speaker 2: you know, if they want to be you know, do 2243 01:41:00,040 --> 01:41:01,280 Speaker 2: the right thing by the players. 2244 01:41:01,320 --> 01:41:04,120 Speaker 1: It's let in the negotiations. Yeah, right, and will wave 2245 01:41:04,160 --> 01:41:05,679 Speaker 1: your you know, we'll wave your fine. 2246 01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:09,240 Speaker 2: The single dumbest thing that you can do as the 2247 01:41:09,360 --> 01:41:13,040 Speaker 2: Washington Commanders in year two of Jaden Daniels, with all 2248 01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:15,080 Speaker 2: the momentum that you had last year going all the 2249 01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:17,840 Speaker 2: way to the NFC Championship Game, and Jadeen Daniels was 2250 01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:20,920 Speaker 2: legitimately a top five quarterback in the NFL out of 2251 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:23,640 Speaker 2: the shoot as a rookie, the dumbest thing that you 2252 01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:26,760 Speaker 2: could do is be trade Terry McLaurin. It's not if 2253 01:41:26,800 --> 01:41:30,360 Speaker 2: this was five years from now, and I know mclaurin's like, ah, 2254 01:41:30,400 --> 01:41:32,679 Speaker 2: doesn't line up with this, but just for the take, 2255 01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:35,479 Speaker 2: this was five years from now and they decided to 2256 01:41:35,560 --> 01:41:39,599 Speaker 2: trade Jaden Daniels's top receiver because Jaden Daniels has won 2257 01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:41,920 Speaker 2: like three MVPs in a row, and he's gonna be fine. 2258 01:41:42,200 --> 01:41:44,120 Speaker 2: It's kind of like what Buffalo did with digs right, 2259 01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:47,639 Speaker 2: Like they finally said, Josh Allen's a made man. He's 2260 01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:50,680 Speaker 2: gonna be fine. It'll be fine. But we're not there 2261 01:41:50,760 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 2: yet with Jayden Daniels. Jaden Daniels had one year, Like 2262 01:41:53,439 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 2: he's not anywhere close to that level yet, where the 2263 01:41:56,560 --> 01:42:00,000 Speaker 2: consistency is there to deal a guy that is truly 2264 01:42:00,080 --> 01:42:02,320 Speaker 2: his best receiver, That would be dumb. Is dumb. And 2265 01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:07,120 Speaker 2: I don't think Scott Peters, Scott Peters, Adam Peters is dumb. 2266 01:42:07,360 --> 01:42:09,280 Speaker 2: I don't. I think he's a good executive. I don't 2267 01:42:09,320 --> 01:42:11,080 Speaker 2: think he's doing that now. 2268 01:42:12,040 --> 01:42:15,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I know it's different ownership that organization's had there. 2269 01:42:16,479 --> 01:42:19,799 Speaker 2: It's different ownership. It's different ownership. It's a different general manager, 2270 01:42:19,800 --> 01:42:21,920 Speaker 2: it's a different head coach, Like it's a different vibe 2271 01:42:22,040 --> 01:42:25,800 Speaker 2: in Washington the next one here. I can't. I can't 2272 01:42:25,880 --> 01:42:29,519 Speaker 2: rule this out completely because it's Jerry, and Jerry does 2273 01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:33,960 Speaker 2: what Jerry does. Like Micah Parsons is unhappy in Dallas. 2274 01:42:34,640 --> 01:42:36,800 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean the owner's talking smack about him, 2275 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:40,400 Speaker 2: so you have to be again that is done with 2276 01:42:40,439 --> 01:42:44,400 Speaker 2: the capitol, so that and B to trade maybe, yeah, 2277 01:42:44,439 --> 01:42:47,720 Speaker 2: I think a top ten player in football, like regardless. 2278 01:42:47,240 --> 01:42:50,280 Speaker 1: Of now you're talking about multiple first round picks if 2279 01:42:50,280 --> 01:42:50,839 Speaker 1: he gets. 2280 01:42:51,040 --> 01:42:54,320 Speaker 2: He's legitimately Like, let's take quarterbacks out of it, because 2281 01:42:54,320 --> 01:42:56,760 Speaker 2: it's always hard when the value of a quarterback is 2282 01:42:56,800 --> 01:43:00,559 Speaker 2: so high at non quarterbacks if we were just draft 2283 01:43:00,800 --> 01:43:04,519 Speaker 2: non quarterbacks, like Micah Parsans is a top ten pick easily. 2284 01:43:04,600 --> 01:43:09,439 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean it's him, it's Seul Garrett. Yeah, 2285 01:43:09,520 --> 01:43:13,080 Speaker 1: it's probably wider some of the justin Jefferson j Yeah, yeah, 2286 01:43:13,080 --> 01:43:20,120 Speaker 1: but yeah there, yes he is to stop doesn't matter. 2287 01:43:21,200 --> 01:43:22,920 Speaker 1: That would be like multiple first round picks. I don't 2288 01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:25,200 Speaker 1: think he's getting traded simply because like I don't think 2289 01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:27,280 Speaker 1: a team's going to give up what he's worth. 2290 01:43:27,720 --> 01:43:30,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, that one would be tough to give up enough 2291 01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:33,439 Speaker 2: compensation for Dallas to truly move him, right, But Like, 2292 01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:35,880 Speaker 2: the thing is that Jerry is saying ridiculous, and I 2293 01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:38,599 Speaker 2: know it's shouldn't I shouldn't, I shouldn't, Like it's glass 2294 01:43:38,600 --> 01:43:41,240 Speaker 2: Asse type thing, but like, what are you doing, Like 2295 01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:43,240 Speaker 2: you're saying, oh, well, we might just because we sign him. 2296 01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:45,280 Speaker 2: We might not have him because he got hurt last year, 2297 01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:48,280 Speaker 2: Like everybody gets hurt sometimes, Like it's football, all right. 2298 01:43:48,360 --> 01:43:51,680 Speaker 2: Last one here from David Maine. Shamar Stewart also with 2299 01:43:51,720 --> 01:43:55,799 Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals. So Shamar Stewart went back to school, 2300 01:43:56,120 --> 01:43:58,160 Speaker 2: I believe, right, So they can't play. 2301 01:43:58,240 --> 01:44:02,800 Speaker 1: I think there's an internet rumors he's at Texas and practices. 2302 01:44:03,080 --> 01:44:05,519 Speaker 2: So he's not eligible to play college football anymore. 2303 01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:06,920 Speaker 1: No, he cannot know. 2304 01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:11,360 Speaker 2: But he could sit out the year with Cincinnati and 2305 01:44:11,520 --> 01:44:14,400 Speaker 2: re enter the twenty twenty six draft. Yes, but he 2306 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:16,720 Speaker 2: would be out of football for an entire year, not 2307 01:44:16,760 --> 01:44:19,479 Speaker 2: playing college or pro football for an entire. 2308 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:22,040 Speaker 1: So I've been looking into this and I haven't gotten 2309 01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:24,720 Speaker 1: the exact answer. I think he could go play in 2310 01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:25,280 Speaker 1: the UFL. 2311 01:44:26,320 --> 01:44:28,479 Speaker 2: He's not under contract in the NFL, but he declared no. 2312 01:44:28,560 --> 01:44:29,719 Speaker 1: They put in the UFL. 2313 01:44:31,760 --> 01:44:33,400 Speaker 2: Where which one is that? 2314 01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:35,080 Speaker 1: There's only one left? It's the spring league. 2315 01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:36,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying, Like he can go and 2316 01:44:36,760 --> 01:44:38,320 Speaker 2: play pro football. 2317 01:44:38,360 --> 01:44:40,720 Speaker 1: No, But so this this is which if I was him, 2318 01:44:40,800 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: this is what I would do if he's not going 2319 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:45,360 Speaker 1: to play, is go to the UFL because he'll dominate 2320 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,160 Speaker 1: and then use that to because inherently his draft sock 2321 01:44:49,240 --> 01:44:52,320 Speaker 1: is going to go down because he's another year older. Yeah, 2322 01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:54,160 Speaker 1: it's been out of the game. It's going to go 2323 01:44:54,280 --> 01:44:57,519 Speaker 1: way down, right well, because it's just this whole, this whole. 2324 01:44:57,520 --> 01:44:59,160 Speaker 1: But if you go to the UFL and put up 2325 01:44:59,800 --> 01:45:01,000 Speaker 1: a teen sacks. 2326 01:45:00,680 --> 01:45:03,959 Speaker 2: In ten games, yeah, I dominate that level. 2327 01:45:03,960 --> 01:45:05,920 Speaker 1: Right, So that's what I'm saying. But I don't think 2328 01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:08,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna get traded because if you're the bank, first 2329 01:45:08,360 --> 01:45:10,080 Speaker 1: of all, if you're the Bengals, you trade Tamar Stewart, 2330 01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:12,439 Speaker 1: you lose all your leverage with Trey Hendrickson. The Trey 2331 01:45:12,439 --> 01:45:14,519 Speaker 1: Hendrickson hat thing has to be settled first. 2332 01:45:14,520 --> 01:45:16,760 Speaker 2: You can't draft a guy in the first round and 2333 01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:19,120 Speaker 2: then have a contract dispute and then immediately trade the 2334 01:45:19,120 --> 01:45:20,960 Speaker 2: guy like it's just such bad. 2335 01:45:21,640 --> 01:45:23,680 Speaker 1: They if they decide like, all right, it's just that 2336 01:45:24,080 --> 01:45:26,280 Speaker 1: we're at an impasse, it's not gonna work. And I 2337 01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:31,360 Speaker 1: mean that in itself is a fireable offense. You can't 2338 01:45:31,479 --> 01:45:33,280 Speaker 1: do anything with Stuart until you do somee with Hendrickson 2339 01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:36,080 Speaker 1: because if you move on from Stewart or you announced 2340 01:45:36,120 --> 01:45:39,960 Speaker 1: or he announces without you, hey not playing this year 2341 01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:43,240 Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson's offer just went up by or Trey Hendrickson's 2342 01:45:43,240 --> 01:45:45,280 Speaker 1: demand just went up by twenty percent, because you can't 2343 01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:48,440 Speaker 1: lose both of them. Now they should be prioritizing Stuart, 2344 01:45:48,560 --> 01:45:52,760 Speaker 1: but you can't. If it gets out that Stuart's not 2345 01:45:52,760 --> 01:45:56,880 Speaker 1: gonna play, they lose it all with Trey Hendrickson and 2346 01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:57,960 Speaker 1: now they're down both guys. 2347 01:45:58,280 --> 01:46:02,040 Speaker 2: I'd be fascinated to see a player sit out the 2348 01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:05,200 Speaker 2: entire year and then re enter the draft next year. 2349 01:46:05,479 --> 01:46:06,160 Speaker 2: That would be cool. 2350 01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:08,040 Speaker 1: I'm really interested to know. 2351 01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:11,960 Speaker 2: I'd get drafted on Day three, right. So I guess 2352 01:46:11,960 --> 01:46:15,720 Speaker 2: it depends on like the optics from the from the 2353 01:46:15,760 --> 01:46:18,200 Speaker 2: other thirty one teams. Do they think he was in 2354 01:46:18,240 --> 01:46:21,840 Speaker 2: the right in this whole situation, because like there's gonna 2355 01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:23,800 Speaker 2: be some people in the league. I'm sure that are 2356 01:46:23,840 --> 01:46:25,320 Speaker 2: gonna think he's a headache right. 2357 01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:27,719 Speaker 1: Right, But it's it's you know, what do they think 2358 01:46:27,760 --> 01:46:31,040 Speaker 1: of Do they know the details what the Bengals are offering? 2359 01:46:31,120 --> 01:46:33,240 Speaker 1: I think does he keep the same agent or does 2360 01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:36,240 Speaker 1: he change agents? Yeah, that would be a factor. Does 2361 01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:38,640 Speaker 1: he go to the combine again? So I don't know 2362 01:46:38,680 --> 01:46:40,439 Speaker 1: if you can play in the spring and be eligible 2363 01:46:40,439 --> 01:46:42,840 Speaker 1: for the draft. I remember there was that corner two 2364 01:46:42,880 --> 01:46:45,800 Speaker 1: years ago who played in Canada and got drafted after 2365 01:46:45,920 --> 01:46:49,160 Speaker 1: not playing college football. So I don't exactly know how 2366 01:46:49,200 --> 01:46:50,800 Speaker 1: that works. And if I don't know how it works, 2367 01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:52,519 Speaker 1: it's probably a pretty complicated question. 2368 01:46:53,240 --> 01:46:54,960 Speaker 2: If he went to I don't tell you a factor 2369 01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:57,200 Speaker 2: in the spring league thing. I just know from what 2370 01:46:57,240 --> 01:46:59,960 Speaker 2: I understand, if he doesn't play in the NFL next year, 2371 01:47:00,160 --> 01:47:02,439 Speaker 2: he can re enter the point twenty I think so. 2372 01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:04,640 Speaker 1: But it's the amateur draft, right, So if you're in 2373 01:47:04,640 --> 01:47:06,719 Speaker 1: the UFL and you get paid by the UFL. 2374 01:47:06,800 --> 01:47:09,559 Speaker 2: Oh, it's so silly because now nil exists, so nothing is. 2375 01:47:09,680 --> 01:47:11,800 Speaker 1: Oh, that's true, So maybe he could so I just 2376 01:47:11,840 --> 01:47:16,400 Speaker 1: for reference here, Uh oh, I can't pronounce that peta 2377 01:47:17,240 --> 01:47:24,240 Speaker 1: peta peta two taomo pinuu. I apologize out of Utah. 2378 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:26,280 Speaker 1: It was a six round pick in twenty seventeen. He 2379 01:47:26,400 --> 01:47:28,920 Speaker 1: led the UFL in sacks last year. He had seven 2380 01:47:28,920 --> 01:47:31,559 Speaker 1: and a half and nine games. Willie Taylor played ten games. 2381 01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:33,120 Speaker 1: He had seven. Nobody else had more than five and 2382 01:47:33,160 --> 01:47:35,640 Speaker 1: a half. How many you thinks schmar Stewart's getting in 2383 01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:36,080 Speaker 1: that league? 2384 01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:36,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? A lot? 2385 01:47:37,160 --> 01:47:40,439 Speaker 1: Right? If he goes out and it's like the guy. 2386 01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:41,880 Speaker 1: It would be like the guys that light up the 2387 01:47:41,920 --> 01:47:44,000 Speaker 1: Group of five conferences and the D two conferences where 2388 01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:45,840 Speaker 1: they get drafted, because yes, the numbers are going to 2389 01:47:45,880 --> 01:47:48,719 Speaker 1: be better, but they're so sheerly overwhelming. If Shamar Stewart 2390 01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:51,719 Speaker 1: really turns it up, I'll throw it out there. Twenty 2391 01:47:51,760 --> 01:47:53,720 Speaker 1: sacks in ten games. Let's say it's two sacks a 2392 01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:56,960 Speaker 1: game in UFL. There's no way he's going outside the 2393 01:47:57,000 --> 01:47:58,519 Speaker 1: top one hundred, and I don't know that he can do. 2394 01:47:58,760 --> 01:48:00,559 Speaker 2: Maybe not outside the top one hund but I still 2395 01:48:00,880 --> 01:48:01,920 Speaker 2: I don't think you can take that. 2396 01:48:02,080 --> 01:48:03,360 Speaker 1: You watched that league enough. 2397 01:48:03,400 --> 01:48:04,919 Speaker 2: You can't take that guy in the first. 2398 01:48:04,680 --> 01:48:05,960 Speaker 1: You've watched that I don't think he'd be a first 2399 01:48:06,040 --> 01:48:07,320 Speaker 1: UND pick, but you've watched that league enough. Do you 2400 01:48:07,320 --> 01:48:09,320 Speaker 1: think he get twenty sacks in ten games in that league? 2401 01:48:10,360 --> 01:48:12,240 Speaker 2: I don't Know't he wasn't he didn't have great sack 2402 01:48:12,280 --> 01:48:13,240 Speaker 2: production in college. 2403 01:48:13,280 --> 01:48:15,200 Speaker 1: Well that that's because Texas A and M's defense. 2404 01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:16,880 Speaker 2: Was Maybe, but you're right, all right, let's get to 2405 01:48:16,920 --> 01:48:18,599 Speaker 2: these calls and then we got to wrap it up here. 2406 01:48:18,920 --> 01:48:26,200 Speaker 2: Jordan is in Ohio. It's up Jordan, Jordan, all right, 2407 01:48:27,040 --> 01:48:27,880 Speaker 2: there you are go. 2408 01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:30,360 Speaker 8: For itylug and can you hear me? 2409 01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:31,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it? What's up? 2410 01:48:33,640 --> 01:48:36,960 Speaker 7: Did you did you guys hear anything about Colin is 2411 01:48:37,479 --> 01:48:38,639 Speaker 7: injury coming back? 2412 01:48:38,720 --> 01:48:42,760 Speaker 2: If he if he pulled, Yeah, thanks for the college Jordan. 2413 01:48:42,840 --> 01:48:44,679 Speaker 2: Now he is a full go. He was out there today, 2414 01:48:44,840 --> 01:48:48,479 Speaker 2: not on the list, not on pup. Uh, so he's 2415 01:48:48,520 --> 01:48:51,160 Speaker 2: good to go. It seems like and uh, you know 2416 01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:53,160 Speaker 2: out there in the team it was twenty three and 2417 01:48:53,280 --> 01:48:55,719 Speaker 2: five back there at safety with the first team defense. 2418 01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:59,640 Speaker 2: So Jabriel Pepper is Kyle Dugger back home out in 2419 01:48:59,680 --> 01:49:03,559 Speaker 2: their charting roles as of right now. I'll continue to 2420 01:49:03,600 --> 01:49:08,920 Speaker 2: say I don't let's not totally forget because the last year, 2421 01:49:09,479 --> 01:49:12,200 Speaker 2: that two years ago, Kyle Dugger and Jabrill Peppers were 2422 01:49:12,240 --> 01:49:16,080 Speaker 2: considered a formidable safety dandem, you know, probably top ten 2423 01:49:16,120 --> 01:49:19,080 Speaker 2: safety deal in the league. That was just two years ago. 2424 01:49:19,160 --> 01:49:21,439 Speaker 1: I think they still can be. They weren't. Neither one 2425 01:49:21,439 --> 01:49:23,599 Speaker 1: of them was healthy really had any point last year. 2426 01:49:23,640 --> 01:49:24,280 Speaker 2: Pepper said all. 2427 01:49:24,240 --> 01:49:27,920 Speaker 1: The Peppers had all the offense stuff on top of that. Like, now, 2428 01:49:28,360 --> 01:49:30,360 Speaker 1: if they'll be healthy is a fair question. That's really 2429 01:49:30,360 --> 01:49:33,240 Speaker 1: my lone concern with their secondary. If those two guys 2430 01:49:33,280 --> 01:49:36,080 Speaker 1: are fully healthy. Between those two again, I think can 2431 01:49:36,120 --> 01:49:38,320 Speaker 1: be a top ten safety duo. I love both those players. 2432 01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:40,639 Speaker 1: I think Jabrill Peppers one of the most underrated players 2433 01:49:40,680 --> 01:49:43,519 Speaker 1: in the NFL at this point. Obviously, Carlton Davis, Christian 2434 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:45,360 Speaker 1: is auz what they can do that speaks for themselves. 2435 01:49:45,560 --> 01:49:48,200 Speaker 1: Marcus Jones a really good slot corner. I like Alex 2436 01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:50,759 Speaker 1: Saustin is a depth I like Jalen Hawkins and Marcus 2437 01:49:50,760 --> 01:49:52,880 Speaker 1: Eps's depth, and Craig Woodson seems like he might have 2438 01:49:52,920 --> 01:49:55,960 Speaker 1: something going there. Yeah, the only question for me, because 2439 01:49:55,960 --> 01:49:59,280 Speaker 1: it's legitimate, if like how healthy are Kyle dug and 2440 01:49:59,360 --> 01:50:01,360 Speaker 1: Jabrill Peppers and how healthy will they stay this season 2441 01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:03,800 Speaker 1: because both those guys every history injuries. But if those 2442 01:50:03,840 --> 01:50:05,559 Speaker 1: guys are one hundred percent, they're game changers. 2443 01:50:05,720 --> 01:50:07,960 Speaker 2: There's inherently always going to be some boom robust to 2444 01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:10,240 Speaker 2: Kyle Duggar's game. I don't think Kyle dugger is a 2445 01:50:10,240 --> 01:50:12,759 Speaker 2: Devin McCarty type where he's going to be a Simon 2446 01:50:12,880 --> 01:50:15,120 Speaker 2: sound on every single play and always in the right 2447 01:50:15,120 --> 01:50:17,720 Speaker 2: place and never making glaring mistakes and all that type 2448 01:50:17,760 --> 01:50:19,719 Speaker 2: of stuff. I just don't think that that's his game. 2449 01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:22,040 Speaker 2: But going back to twenty three. Like he was a 2450 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:25,080 Speaker 2: turnover machine for a couple of years there, like pick sixes, 2451 01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:28,880 Speaker 2: return touchdowns, getting his you know, getting his hands on 2452 01:50:28,880 --> 01:50:32,599 Speaker 2: the football constantly around the football. He was a much 2453 01:50:32,600 --> 01:50:35,120 Speaker 2: better player a couple of years ago before that ankle 2454 01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:38,880 Speaker 2: injury last year. I think the ankle I think that 2455 01:50:39,040 --> 01:50:41,720 Speaker 2: started to have his season snowball on him. Was the 2456 01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:43,599 Speaker 2: injury was the main reason, but I think it also 2457 01:50:43,640 --> 01:50:46,600 Speaker 2: snowballed on him mentally once he like couldn't move the 2458 01:50:46,640 --> 01:50:48,599 Speaker 2: way that he needed to move, and then you know, 2459 01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:50,720 Speaker 2: then from there his brain just got scrambled and he 2460 01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:53,800 Speaker 2: just wasn't seeing the game fast enough and his game 2461 01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:56,559 Speaker 2: fell apart. But I don't mean to like put it 2462 01:50:56,600 --> 01:50:59,200 Speaker 2: all on the coaching staffs of last year and this year, 2463 01:50:59,240 --> 01:51:02,720 Speaker 2: But Kyle Dugger and Jabil Peppers are two players that 2464 01:51:02,760 --> 01:51:04,479 Speaker 2: I think I have a chance to both bounce back 2465 01:51:04,960 --> 01:51:07,280 Speaker 2: and be the players that we saw two years ago. 2466 01:51:07,360 --> 01:51:09,360 Speaker 2: Now that doesn't make them, you know, Rodney Harrison and 2467 01:51:09,520 --> 01:51:12,599 Speaker 2: Ed Reed right, Like, no one's saying that, But if 2468 01:51:12,640 --> 01:51:15,040 Speaker 2: they can be what they were two years ago, I 2469 01:51:15,479 --> 01:51:18,200 Speaker 2: like their safety room, I like their duo as a 2470 01:51:18,240 --> 01:51:21,599 Speaker 2: starting duo. I still think they can be productive players 2471 01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:24,439 Speaker 2: in this league. All right, Eric is in Quincy. Wrap 2472 01:51:24,479 --> 01:51:31,640 Speaker 2: it on, Eric, what's up Eric? Eric? Of course, the 2473 01:51:31,720 --> 01:51:35,719 Speaker 2: last call we left us saying it's okay, Eric, maybe 2474 01:51:35,720 --> 01:51:38,160 Speaker 2: you can call in next next week as well. So 2475 01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:41,360 Speaker 2: that is gonna do it for today's show. Next week. 2476 01:51:41,400 --> 01:51:43,440 Speaker 2: I feel like we're gonna have a lot more to say. 2477 01:51:43,680 --> 01:51:44,920 Speaker 2: This was one practice I did. 2478 01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:46,680 Speaker 1: We'll have a padded practice or two under the belt 2479 01:51:46,720 --> 01:51:48,120 Speaker 1: by then, right, should be two or three? 2480 01:51:48,240 --> 01:51:48,439 Speaker 2: Yep? 2481 01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:48,880 Speaker 1: What is it? 2482 01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:52,680 Speaker 2: So wait, it's I believe I believe, don't quote me. 2483 01:51:53,040 --> 01:51:55,080 Speaker 2: I believe Monday is gonna be the first PATI. 2484 01:51:55,280 --> 01:51:58,439 Speaker 1: So it'll be Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, they're off on Sunday, 2485 01:51:58,439 --> 01:51:59,439 Speaker 1: and then first padded practice. 2486 01:51:59,600 --> 01:52:01,840 Speaker 2: I believe are gonna get Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, paths. 2487 01:52:01,880 --> 01:52:03,000 Speaker 1: That's usually how that lines up. 2488 01:52:03,160 --> 01:52:08,080 Speaker 2: Yes, So next Wednesday, same time, same place. We will 2489 01:52:08,120 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 2: have multiple practices and multiple padded practices, so have a 2490 01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:13,000 Speaker 2: lot more to digest. 2491 01:52:13,120 --> 01:52:16,559 Speaker 1: Same time, by the way, means like two fifteen two ish. 2492 01:52:16,680 --> 01:52:19,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and we're gonna have a lot more to digest. 2493 01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:23,519 Speaker 2: So that'll be fun. That'll be good. But we wanted 2494 01:52:23,560 --> 01:52:26,439 Speaker 2: to give you as much of a symnopsis as we 2495 01:52:26,520 --> 01:52:30,439 Speaker 2: could of today's practice, not overreacting today's practice given the 2496 01:52:30,520 --> 01:52:32,559 Speaker 2: fact that it was such a small sample size. But 2497 01:52:32,640 --> 01:52:35,040 Speaker 2: next week we'll be back. We'll have some padded practices 2498 01:52:35,080 --> 01:52:37,920 Speaker 2: under our belt to discuss, and training camp will be 2499 01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:41,599 Speaker 2: fully underway a week from today, so we'll be good 2500 01:52:41,600 --> 01:52:44,479 Speaker 2: to go.
