Also, UM on behalf of the team. 4 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 1: Just want to recognize and express my appreciation, our appreciation 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: and admiration for all the people whose jobs are to 6 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 1: treat people and keep our lives going every day. It's 7 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: obviously very challenging and and we'll keep following the guidelines, 8 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: but we just want to, you know, give a special 9 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: thanks and shout out to those that are they are 10 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: keeping us going and taking care of us. UM, you 11 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 1: know in the medical professionals that are they're doing such 12 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: a great job. And look forward to getting to the 13 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: other side of this. But you know, in the meantime, 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: it's just really put things in perspective for all of 15 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: us and appreciate the hard work that everybody's doing to 16 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: keep us safe. And I'll keep our daily lives going. UM, 17 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: you have to start a free agency. I made a 18 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: statement about Tom. UM. It would be, of course impossible 19 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: to sum up everything Tom did in twenty years and 20 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: into a comment um then or now, UM, but I 21 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 1: meant everything I said about him, and UM sure will 22 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: be talking about him for years and in decades to come. UM. 23 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: Right now, we're moving forward and focus on the draft 24 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: here for this call, and that's really where hard attention 25 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: has been and we'll continue to be, is to put 26 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: the best team in two thousand and twenty to all 27 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: we can between now and the start of the season, 28 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: our preparations to have our team in the best position 29 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: to compete in two thousand and twenty. In terms of 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: the draft, UM, you know, it's a little bit different 31 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: logistically over the last month from UM where we've been 32 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: in the past. But as usual, Nick Cassario and his 33 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: staff has done a great job of UM putting things 34 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: in order to assembling information, UM, you know, following up 35 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: on on all the many things that we have to 36 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: try to look at. And it's not normal, but I 37 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: think we've had again, we've we've accumulated a lot of information. 38 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: We've had a lot of opportunities to talk about UM, 39 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: all the players and all the other things that are 40 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: involved here and in this process. And and they'll be 41 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: more as we go forward, UM, between our you know, 42 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: ourselves and the league and with other teams and so forth. 43 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: So I still have some work to do in that area. 44 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: In terms of us seeing exactly you know, how everything's 45 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: gonna functions. I think we talked about and have an idea, 46 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: but we'll actually I put it, put it into place, um, 47 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: you know, early next week, and and just speak exactly 48 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,839 Speaker 1: how it's going to go. But I'm sure that it's 49 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: all well thought out and organized from a league standpoint, 50 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: and you know, we'll just do our part when we're 51 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: when we're involved in the process. So m that's that's 52 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: really about where we are here. UM. And there's there's 53 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: some things going forward that haven't been detailed out yet 54 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: in terms of logistics and specific communications, um so forth. 55 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: But I think the general idea is to handle this, 56 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: um you know, the way it's it's been handling the past. 57 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: We just can't be together, so we'll communicate in other 58 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: ways to yeable though, exchange ideas and opinions and thoughts 59 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: and and night decisions. So that's where we're are now. 60 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: Thank you, coach. We'll we'll open up for questions. We'll 61 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: start with Mike Weaves followed by Michael Travio. Thanks still, 62 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: I hope all as well for you and your family. UM, 63 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: what what stands out than appreciate Bill? What stands out 64 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: to you about this year's quarterback class in the draft. 65 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: Uh oh, I think similar to most years, there's a 66 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: you know, quite a range of UM players, and some 67 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: of the systems that they're that they're playing in college 68 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: or are different either than what we run or what 69 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: traditional NFL systems would look like, and some are more 70 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: closely U schematically to that. So you know, each guy 71 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 1: has his own set of skills, he has his own circumstances. 72 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: And some players that you know played well over a 73 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: sustain period of time. Some players have UM had an 74 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: exceptional year in the past year or two, maybe twenty nineteen, 75 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: some cases two thousand and eighteen. Uh and then for 76 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: whatever the reasons were, the two years didn't quite match up. 77 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: So but that's you know, i'd say about the way 78 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: it always is. UM. I don't know, they're they're always 79 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: a variety of things you have to try to put 80 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: together and look at. But certainly there's a lot of 81 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: interesting players and guys that have really good arms, can 82 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 1: really throw the ball, and some very athletic players and 83 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: players that have won a lot of games, and you know, 84 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: I've shown their competitiveness and instinctness. So good interesting group 85 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: and probe a month that has a decent depth Tood, 86 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: thank you, thankt question, Michael Check, Mike Jordan, thank you, Stacy, Gooday, afternoon, Bill. 87 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: Trust you're staying safe. Yeah, likewise, yes, thank you. M Obviously, 88 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: getting to know prospects has always been a big part 89 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: of player evaluation with you, when Nick and the whole organization, 90 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm curious how much you have used technology, whether it's 91 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: Zoom or Skype or conference teleconferencing to get to know 92 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: these players and how much can you simply how much 93 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: do you have to sacrifice in terms of trying to 94 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: get to know a player, knowing it's not going to 95 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: be the same as going to a pro day or 96 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: meeting them face to face. Yeah, right, Yeah, I like 97 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: that's an interesting question, and you know, it's it's a 98 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: little bit different than than the way we've done it 99 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: in the past with the thirty visits and the pro 100 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: days and so forth, but all the teams are working 101 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: with the same um, you know, constraints, and uh so, 102 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: I think we've probably talked to as many, if not 103 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: more players then we have in the past. And when 104 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: you're not traveling, you're just sitting at the desk and 105 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: we're sitting in a room wherever we are. Um, you know, 106 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: it's easier to make a lot of phone calls and 107 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: get in talk contact with people rather than sometimes visit 108 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: a place and you know, just see the people that 109 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: are there, even though those visits are valuable and you're 110 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: able to you know, get into more of an in 111 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: depth conversation an evaluation there. So, um, yeah, we certainly 112 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: put a lot of log a lot of phone time 113 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: and face time and whatever, you know, video conferencing and 114 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: so forth. And you know, again I think for the 115 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: most part, we all adjusted to that and you know, 116 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: try to take advantage of the opportunity that we have 117 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: to do those things. So and he's part of that opportunity. 118 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: Bill watching more film or would you have watched the 119 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: same amount of film if it weren't for being closed in. 120 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: I think we've probably seen a little more. I mean, 121 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: you know, we started a little bit earlier this year unfortunately, 122 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: so um, you know we're further ahead, um, you know, 123 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: in January in terms of evaluating draft and free agent 124 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 1: players for this year. But yeah, maybe a little bit more, 125 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: thank you, Yeah, if you're will next question, Mike Fiordi 126 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: hang on one second I followed by Dan go ahead 127 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: of Mike Bill. I'm glad to hear that you guys 128 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: are doing well. Um, just being our first time talking 129 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: to you since the end of the season, and in 130 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: particular since Tom left. I know you wanted to leave 131 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: it at the statement, but I'm just curious if you 132 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: guys had a desire to bring Tom back the coming season. Yeah. 133 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: I think that's uh, you know, water under the bridge, Mike, 134 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: And like I said, we're really focused on this season 135 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: and trying to look at our opportunities and make decisions 136 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 1: and plan and prepare to be as competitive as we 137 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,719 Speaker 1: can be this year. So that's really where our focus. 138 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: It didn't didn't surprise you at all. If I'm leaving again, 139 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: I think we've covered all that. Thanks appreciate it. Next question, 140 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: Dan Roach, followed by Allen Sea. Hey, Bill, hope you're 141 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: doing well. Hey Dan, good good, Thank you. Just a 142 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: thought on in your special with with Nick Davian, you 143 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: mentioned that he mentioned that a lot of coaches don't 144 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: actually call the head coach to talk to them prior 145 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: to a draft of both certain players. How important is 146 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: that to you and do you talk to even physician 147 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: coaches as well, and it's the same this year or 148 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: you done it, maybe a little bit more because of 149 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: the lack of being able to get hands on with 150 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: some of these prospects. Yeah, Dan, I think it's um Yeah, yeah, 151 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: I think it's always a part of it. I think 152 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 1: a lot of that probably depends on your relationship of 153 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: the coach or calling and how well you know each 154 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: other and so forth. So somebody like Nick that we've 155 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: known each other for i'll call it forty years. You know, 156 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: that's a lot different than calling somebody that you've never 157 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: met before. And and yeah, they may ask them inside 158 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: into the player and all that, but you know, you 159 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: just don't know each other as well, and there's I'm 160 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: not saying an intentional it could be a very unintentional gap, 161 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 1: but you know, what they're looking for what you're looking 162 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: for sometimes not always the same thing. There's nothing wrong 163 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: with that. But you know, again, the relationships that all 164 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: of us have with people over an extended period of 165 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: time where you have a lot of history of you know, 166 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: in our case, you know players and their situations and 167 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: their skills, and you can compare them relative to other 168 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,719 Speaker 1: guys that we know, and so forth. I don't think 169 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: there's just a natural level of comfort there, and certainly 170 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: there is with myself towards Nick, there's nobody out more 171 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: respect for. But I also have a great personal relationship 172 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: with Nick, and I value his opinion very very highly. 173 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: And would you say build it because of what's had 174 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: to happen you mentioned FaceTime other things. Have you mastered 175 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: the technique of all this technology that you may be 176 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: not I bothered with over the last thirty forty years. Uh, 177 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: let's say master. It's probably not the right word down, 178 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: but certainly better at it than I was four weeks ago. IM, 179 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what half this was, but at least 180 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: now I can, UM, I can do more than I did. 181 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: Put it that way, So get a little better every day, 182 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: learn wearing a new button or learning a new thing 183 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: to click on and see what trick that does. UM. 184 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's been UM it's been very very educational. 185 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: And I was certainly starting at the at the first floor, 186 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: maybe even an abatement. It was a big blow the 187 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: first floor. So yeah, it's been been interesting to um 188 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: get educated on a testing technologies. Uh, you know, dance 189 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: the most. He has done a tremendous job for us 190 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: because we've had you navigate a lot of this. I 191 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: mean there's the coaching side of it, there's the scouting 192 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: side of it, there's the um you know, playbook and 193 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: preparing for the all Seasons program, uh side of it, 194 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: the meetings and so forth, and just to be able 195 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: to to deal with so many people that are some 196 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: are very proficient at some of the things we're doing, 197 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: others like myself or you know, remedial and and so 198 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: putting things together on a lot of different levels for 199 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: multiple groups and interactions that you know, crossover different connections 200 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: and needs and can we do this with this type 201 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: of meeting and this kind of conversation and can we 202 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 1: do something else? And you know, some are one on one, 203 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 1: some are it's five people, ten people, twenty people, and 204 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: were preparing for larger groups than that. So there really 205 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: are a lot of a lot of moving parts. And 206 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: Dan's done a tremendous job for us and trying to 207 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: pull you know, a lot of things together and like 208 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: I said, remotely help out people like me that need 209 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: a lot of help. Thanks question, thank you, Yeah, followed 210 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: by Bob don't glad to hear that you and the 211 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: family are well. Um, you've always talked about thanks, You've 212 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: always talked about value. I'm just wondering if there are 213 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: some years where your teams need where you're drafting and 214 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: the players that are available, effective metrics that use the 215 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: termine value. And I wonder if this year is maybe 216 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: one of them, considering that you pick at twenty three 217 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: and then again don't pick until eighty seven. Yeah, that's good. Um, yeah, 218 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: that's a real good questions. Uh, hell, that's something well, 219 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: you know, take the pos look out. I think up 220 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: until oh, i'd say about you know now and maybe 221 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: in a couple of days. You know, most of our 222 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: focus has been trying to, you know, learn as much 223 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: as you can about the players, have them evaluated and 224 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: and valued properly and so forth. I think as you 225 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: get into the final uh you know, week or three 226 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: or four days prior to the drafts and draft strategy 227 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: and things like that, um, start to start to become 228 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: a little bit more in focus, come into focus because 229 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: because you know more of what you're doing, to give 230 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: a better idea of what you're what the options are, 231 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: and where you'd be comfortable doing certain things. And I 232 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: think other teams that are falling into the same category 233 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: as we are. That they're starting to you know, figure 234 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: out what, you know, whatever their situation is. And so um, 235 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, we we have a lot of you'll draft 236 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of draft picks, and you know, 237 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: some of them are are kind of a weren't a 238 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: certain area and as you said, we have a you know, 239 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: a little both boy there in the second round. Um. 240 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: Although you know that that players who you know filled 241 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: filled the need for us. So um, yeah, that's okay. 242 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: But in terms of just a draft planning and strategy 243 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: and so forth, Yeah, that'll really thinks start to pick 244 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: up here in the next you know, probably I don't know, 245 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: around the weekend or maybe after the weekend in the 246 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: FO or three days leading up to the draft. Great, 247 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: thanks overall. Yeah, you're welcome you too, don't all right? 248 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: Next question Bob Socie called by Philip Harry. All right, 249 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: thank you, Stacy high Bill. I'm glad to hear you're 250 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: doing well. They bobbed you too. Bill. I know you 251 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: can control only what you can control, and you're dealing 252 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: with things as they develop. I'm curious how the circumstances 253 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: of this offseason with no conditioning, the facilities closed, your 254 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: current players on your roster, not being president under supervision 255 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: with your staff, so to speak, how that kind of 256 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: complicates your evaluation of where the players you know are 257 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: coming back are and also with some of the uncertainty 258 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 1: surrounding what lies on the horizon beyond the draft, OTA's 259 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: mini camp at this point, if that factors in whatsoever 260 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: in your draft strategy, particularly when it comes to developing 261 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: young players. Yeah, well, that's yeah, Bob, it's really a 262 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: good question, and that's something that we've we've talked about, 263 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: and really the answer for us is to how to 264 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: try to maximize opportunity that we have. You take, if 265 00:17:55,040 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: you compare this year for the lockout year, you know, 266 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: everybody had a lot of facilities available and they could 267 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: work out wherever they wanted. It's that's limited more limited 268 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: this time. But we weren't allowed to have any contact 269 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: with the players. We couldn't talk to the veteran players, 270 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 1: we couldn't talk to the rookie players, and in fact, 271 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: we couldn't even sign the players that weren't drafted until 272 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: right before training camp. So the opportunity to even communicate 273 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: and teach was was very very limited. Then now let's 274 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: say we're looking at a situation that the opportunity to 275 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: train for some players maybe more limited, but our opportunity 276 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: to communicate with them and teach them, even though it's remote, 277 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: is definitely better than what it was hearing the lockout. 278 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: So we'll just have to kind of see how all 279 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: that plays out that. I do think that from a 280 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: teaching standpoint, we can we can get a lot of 281 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: teaching done that we weren't able to do, you know, 282 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 1: nine ten years ago in the similar sits in a 283 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: similar but different situations. So I think the teaching part 284 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: of it will hopefully be okay. I think the you know, 285 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 1: fundamental part of it, the execution part of it, the 286 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: timing and so forth, is going to be probably similar 287 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: to what it was, uh in the lockout in twenty eleven, 288 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: when you know, you're just dealing with training camp and 289 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: you have to really accelerate the the teaching and the 290 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: or the I would say, the execution and the you know, 291 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: teamwork and so forth, you just don't have that that 292 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: good base to fall back on that we've been used 293 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: to in the spring. At least it doesn't appear that 294 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: way now. Maybe that'll change. Maybe maybe you know, we 295 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: will be able to work with the players this frame 296 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: well to see all that goes. But um, even if 297 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: we don't, relative to the two thousand and eleven seasons, 298 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: we're I think we'll have a better opportunity to teach. 299 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: And so that's it. We're focused on in the spring 300 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: us to get as much teaching done as we can 301 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: and then um, we'll see what what kind of opportunities 302 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: we have with you know, to actually you know, work 303 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: on the field. Appreciate it, Bill, take care of stay safe. Okay, 304 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: thank you too, Allan, thank you, thank you, Bob.

Um when it comes to that 316 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: position and maybe altering your offense a little bit. It 317 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: does feel like they're more athletes sort of coming into 318 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: the league year after a year, different styles of quarterbacks. 319 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: And I'm just curious how important you think that is 320 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: to be open to to changing this thing that you've 321 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: built for two decades with you know, one guy primarily 322 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: playing the majority of the staffs there right, Yeah, well 323 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: as you exactly feel just Um, I couldn't agree with 324 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: anymore in terms of over the last two decades, everything 325 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 1: we did, every single decision we made in terms of 326 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: major planning, was you know, made with the idea how 327 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: to make thing best for Tom Brady. And now that 328 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 1: being said, you know, we've had several situations where we 329 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: had to play Tom wasn't going to be the quarterback, 330 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: so that would go back to Castle and Jimmy and 331 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: Jacobe and you know, situations like that, and so in 332 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: those situations, they were uh in season all those maths. 333 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: Castle situation ended up being for a fifteen games. But 334 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: but whatever those situations were, we adapted what we had 335 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: to the player and try to once we cast will 336 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: be a good examples, and we garried everything towards um, 337 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: you know, doing what was best for him, just like 338 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: we always garried everything for doing what was best for 339 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 1: Tom and uh to help our offense there. So I 340 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: don't don't really see that changing. Whoever, whoever the quarterback 341 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 1: is will try to make it as make things work 342 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: smoothly and efficiently for that player and take advantage of 343 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: his strength and his skills. And each each of us 344 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: has different skills, each quarterback has a different skill set, 345 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: and um, whatever things that particular player you know it 346 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: does well, we'll try to work for it and teacher 347 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: and or at least given an opportunity to do those, 348 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: and the things that either doesn't do well or needs 349 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: more experience out or whatever the case might be, and 350 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: we'll try to you know, minimize or until those those improved, 351 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: you know, work around them. So I don't see it 352 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: being any difference than what it's what it's the process, 353 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: and what it's ever been. It's just you know, we know, 354 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: the situation we're in now different than you know than 355 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: the year, you know, when when we had a plan 356 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: to play four games about Tom started the season, but 357 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: he would be back after that. Uh, this is you know, 358 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: a little bit different than that, but it's along the 359 00:23:50,640 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: same lines as we we get whoever is the quarterback? Ready? Ready? Thanks? There, 360 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,439 Speaker 1: You're welcome. Phil. Our last two questions or go Ben 361 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: voland Tom Curran go ahead. Then hey, Bill, glad you're 362 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 1: doing okay, Thanks for doing this today. Yeah, you got that. 363 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: Things are well on your end. Yeah, hanging in there. Um, 364 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: similar question from what Phil had. This will be the 365 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: first time in nearly twenty years that you do have 366 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: a new quarterback. Does that change how you scout other 367 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: positions in the draft or free agency? Does the change 368 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: what you're looking for in certain players? Uh? Yeah, I 369 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: mean not really. Oh again, I think we want to 370 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: you know, we know things we need to do to 371 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: have a good team and and we have to be 372 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: able to protect the quarterback. We have to be able 373 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: to run the ball. We have to be able to 374 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: you know, get open and catch the ball with whoever 375 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: the receivers are, tight ends or running backs are. They 376 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: have to be able to play defense against all the 377 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: teams we have to play against. So, um, you know, 378 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: I think those specifics are really coming to play more 379 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: as we you know, get on the field in training camp, 380 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: and start game planning and you know, being being more 381 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: specific again, I think the spring is always the time, 382 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: um for the players to learn the often we work 383 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: on their fundamentals and basic techniques and and the refinement 384 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: all comes at a little later layer point in time. 385 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: So um, if we don't have an opportunity to do 386 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: that to the spring, then you know, it's nothing we 387 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: can do about that. We'll deal with it in in 388 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: training camp. But I mean before we can, you know, 389 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: start getting too to fine tune and too specific. I mean, 390 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: we all need to understand the basics, the fundamentals, the 391 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: basic communications, the fundamentals of our our technique, the fundamentals 392 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: of the running game, the passing game, so forth, and 393 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: and then we'll tailor those based on to an individual player, 394 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: whatever position is, whether it's a receiver or you know, 395 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: a quarterbacker or whatever it is. It's you know, Randy 396 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: mosson Wes Welker might run the same route, but it's 397 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: not the same route, so you know that, but that 398 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: comes later. I don't think he started at that point. 399 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: That's that's something after you get the basics down that 400 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: you you know, modify for an individual player's skills and 401 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: a quick follow up if I may, Uh, Jared did him? 402 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: What was your impression of him? Uh during his rookie season? 403 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 1: And do you feel like you have a good grasp 404 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: on him as a player even though he's only thrown 405 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: four passes in a regular season game. Yeah, well, we 406 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: spent you know, a multiple uh, you know, quite a 407 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: bit of time with both Brian and um did and UM, 408 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: you know, I think we have a pretty Josh and 409 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: myself certainly have a pretty good feal for Belcos players. 410 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: Um circumstances will be different this year and and uh 411 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see how everything plays out. But again, 412 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: to start with, I think the main thing is to 413 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: give everyone a chance to compete, to get get people 414 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: comfortable with the physician and the skills that they're playing, 415 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: the communication that's involved. We'll evaluate the players as we 416 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: get an opportunity to evaluate them. So right now, the 417 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: spring is about it will be about teaching the best 418 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: that we can and at whatever point we get a 419 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: chance to get on the field and participate and play, 420 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 1: then that's what that's what we'll do. I'm not sure 421 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: exactly how that's going to go. Once we figure it out, 422 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: then we'll work from there and thanks for the time. 423 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: Question is Tom current? Hey Bill, thank you very much 424 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: for taking all this time. Last question is I know 425 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: how much self go thing you guys do in the 426 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: regular season and on your entire operation when doing that 427 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: relative for the draft the last few years, have you 428 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: seen anything if you're doing because you could do differently, 429 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: they have different results, maybe especially in the second round 430 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 1: where you've frequently gone defensive back and it just hasn't 431 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: tanned out that well. So I'm just wondering, is that 432 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: bad luck? Is it anything related to when you're taking guys, 433 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: anything that you can give in terms of enlightening us 434 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: on that? Thank you. Yeah, Well, we evaluate everything we 435 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: do and are always trying to, you know, learn from 436 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: every situation to improve and we do that. We've done 437 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: that every year since I've been here. We'll continue to 438 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: do it and we'll do the best we can this year. 439 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: So we'll say it goes. Is there anything on that 440 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: group that's a position you guys have gone back to 441 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: with Cyrus and Jordan Richards and duked us and then 442 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: last year ju Won. Is there any philosophy in the 443 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: second round that you have that says, hey, let's go 444 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: and try and get some match up type of corners 445 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,959 Speaker 1: or a corner or a safety or defensive back who 446 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: brings something at that point. Yeah, well then you've got 447 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: guys like Matt Light and Jamie Collins and Rob gron Kelsky, 448 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: and you know there's plenty of second rounders that you 449 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: know that some good careers here. So we'll see how Yeah, 450 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 1: we'll see how it goes. UM. But you know, look, 451 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: each draft different, every year is different, each player is different. 452 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: So I think to sit here and you know, rehash 453 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: the two thousand and fifteen draft or two thousand and 454 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: six draft or whatever it is is. Again, they're you know, 455 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: they're they're fundamentals of the process, and you know we 456 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: always try to improve those. Um, we'll try to do 457 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: the best job that we can this year in every round, 458 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: first round, second round, if we're in the second round 459 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: right now, we're not even in in the second round, 460 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: but you know, whatever rounds, whatever fix we a try 461 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: to maximize the values and help our team the best 462 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:11,719 Speaker 1: that we can. Thank. Take care, Okay, thanks THO.
