Guy, it's so good to be back 0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:27.400 talking about some football. There's a little bit of drama 0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:30.640 in Commander's land today. Mike Clay from ESPN put out 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:35.479 his receiver rankings yesterday and Washington was eleven. Drum row, 0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:36.720 How do you guys feel about that? 0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:38.120 I'm sick to my stomach. 0:00:38.200 --> 0:00:40.320 Okay, tell me about a better room than it. 0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:43.000 It's a better room. One like I judge a room 0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:45.960 by how many threats do you have? Okay, well we 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.839 have legitly like people forgetting that Diami Brown is the 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.479 fourth receiver on this team like this says a lot. 0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.920 I think Curtis Samny is a guy to tell the truth. 0:00:57.360 --> 0:00:59.480 Hasn't riched his ceiling yet. So at the end of 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:02.880 the day, especially with us yeah yeah, and Johann Dotson, 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:04.839 it's one of them guys could easily be a number 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:05.520 one on the team. 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.520 All right, so we got a one A in a 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:07.920 one B. 0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.399 I think the one thing that these guys suffer from 0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:13.280 is why I didn't play wide receive in the first 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:16.840 dayn place. You have to depend on the quarterback. Without 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:18.880 the quarterback, they will not rank you high. 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:20.600 And trust me, I was one of those guys. When 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:23.440 I saw it, I was sitting there thinking hard. I'm like, 0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:25.759 we easily a top five corps, you know what I mean, 0:01:25.800 --> 0:01:28.360 those group of guys. Any team in this leader right 0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.440 now would take all three of our guys and they 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.360 can be starters on someone else's team. But I understand 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.399 and just what you know Fred alluded to is it's 0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.640 all about the quarterback. And that's one of the reasons 0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:41.039 why as a player, as a receiver, folks us always 0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:43.399 asking me before the season, one, are your goals? 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:45.679 My goals is to be ready because. 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:46.680 I can't go out here and say I want to 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.160 go for a thousand yards unless the quarterback allowed me 0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:50.600 to be that kind of player, you know what I mean. 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:53.160 So I never tried to sell myself with these goals 0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:56.520 and these highestpirations, these dreams of being the best receiving 0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:58.360 the league, being a guy that go out there one 0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.360 thousand hours every year. What I've all always done, knowing 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:04.240 that the court, knowing that my play dictated, you know, 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:07.200 solely from the quarterback position, is just made sure that 0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:09.160 I was ready for whatever it may come my way. 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:11.440 And also that means not getting the ball a lot 0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:13.400 that Terry had to go through up and down throughout 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:13.919 these years. 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:15.760 So I think we have a better court than they've 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:17.680 giving us. But it solely, you know, lies on our 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:18.440 quarterback hands. 0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:20.000 So let me just ask you this. So this is 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:28.800 the list, Cincinnati, Seattle, Miami, Philly, Dallas, Arizona, the Chargers, Tampa, Bay, Vegas, Minnesota, Washington. 0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.640 Of those teams, if we have a better receiver group 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.480 than eleven, who you taking out and where you slatting 0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:36.160 us in that group? 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.480 That Minnesota has to go down? 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:40.760 Okay, time out. 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:44.360 They got justin Jefferson, they got a top three wide 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:44.920 receiving this. 0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:46.880 Way it ends in and then Jordan Addison is a 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.080 first round We don't know who he is. 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:49.760 Hold up, my. 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.960 Guys, So last couple of years, these first round RD 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.200 receivers are coming in just straight bald, right, And I 0:02:54.200 --> 0:02:56.240 think Tanna can speak to this probably better than most. 0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:59.359 They are a more polished product coming out of college 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.160 because that's red right. So is there a sir, is 0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:05.240 there a world where he's grading in the seventies by 0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:07.639 PFF and then that would put him ahead of with. 0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:09.840 What I'm saying is he's not better than Johanna Dodson. 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.280 We know that right now, We know that as we speak, 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.080 because I'm gonna always put your number one against your 0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:18.960 number one like Terry mclowan, Jordan Jefferson. They got us 0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:22.960 right there, and by inch, our number two it's better 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:26.079 than their number two, and that number three surpasses their 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:26.600 number three. 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.680 Osborne, I bet on our number one is our number 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.959 two is only number two because our number. 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:33.840 One has done so much? Yes, but our. 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:35.840 Number one two can easily be a number one this 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:36.600 team alone. 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:38.720 So let me ask you this based on system. 0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:42.560 Right, scheme system is that that scheming Minnesota is very 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:44.920 receiver friendly. It's the same system that Kyle RAN's for 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.360 the one and two receivers. They got a lot of touches. Right, 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:49.520 do you think Addison will be better more productive than 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.000 hn Dodson? I know, okay, I'm not talking to you. 0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:53.000 I know you're not. 0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:59.600 Who do you think I haven't seen what we're gonna 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:01.640 do with eb yet, so it's hard for me. It's 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:03.640 hard for me to gauge that now and say, well, 0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:06.440 this office is gonna allow Dawson get off, you know 0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:09.560 what I mean. I do believe with that offense that 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:11.120 he's over there. I'm gonna give him ANR right now. 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:11.600 So I'll get bad. 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:12.880 It's in the NAR right now because I don't know 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:13.680 what we're gonna do offense. 0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:15.800 Yeah, because I think that offense is pretty sure. But okay, 0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:18.000 so I think it's close. I think Minnesota's close. You 0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:19.960 can bump down. There are the other teams on this 0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:21.640 I got two Teamslet's see if you guys get to 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:23.240 the same ones that I think. 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:28.000 Arizona shouldn't should not be ahead of this team. I 0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:32.159 love the receivers they have in Arizona, but when I 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.119 put them up to our guys, I think our guys 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:39.280 our step better in Dallas. Doesn't see thee Lamb. He's 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.520 a number one, but he's a number one. 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:42.560 That's a slot receiver. 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.160 He's also a guy that doesn't create a lot of separation, 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:49.680 like when he catches balls. By all his balls are contested, right, 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:51.840 So at the end of the day, you're gonna add 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:55.200 Brandon Cook, who I've like. Brandon Cook has managed to 0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:57.360 get a thousand yards no matter who his quarterback is. 0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:59.120 But Brandon Cook. 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.240 He's not He's not gonna run intermediate short routes. He's 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:05.159 going to burn you. He's going to stretch the field, 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.280 and he's a tough suck cin of a gun. He's 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:09.640 going to catch the ball and no matter who's out, definitely, 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:11.599 you know, put put some on them. So that's what 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:14.400 I give Brandon Cooks. But when you look at this list, uh, 0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:17.239 to me, if you had to take our receiver corps 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:19.200 and put them in any one of those those group 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:23.039 of teams, I think they would kill They will ball out. 0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:24.680 So when I look at the list, the only team, 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:29.039 the only team, I probably would you know, question and 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.640 saying that I as Arizona. I think Arizona don't have 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:34.360 enough guys collectively that I would. 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.400 Say that, you know, they should be in front of us. 0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:37.560 You know, I think the one thing there is they 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.560 got DeAndre Hopkins, and DeAndre Hopkins. 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:40.520 Had a tough year last year. 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:44.200 Suspect you don't I played with him, and besides him, 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:45.599 I don't see nobody. 0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:47.320 I was he as a team I mean he's as 0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:48.920 a teammate. I think you see's a good guy as 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:50.520 a teammate. Not the hardest worker in the world, but 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:52.800 just a good, good, competitive son of a gun and 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:53.640 one of the best. 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.040 His superpowers catch the football, like the. 0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:58.920 Way he catches the football hands and they're huge hands, 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:02.159 and he's Contell said he's tough, but not very productive. 0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:04.640 Last year, Marquis Brown, the guy from Baltimore. 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.360 He's up and down, up and down. Right. 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:08.640 And then the guy they drafted Rondell Moore a couple 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:10.880 of years ago, the four to two guy. They don't 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:12.280 know how to use him yet, So I would I 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.880 would say for sure above Arizona right. And I'm glad 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.800 you mentioned Dallas, right because the Brandon Cooks. The question 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.159 I have for you is, does Brandon Cooks elevate CD 0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:22.320 LAMB because of the space He's an I don't. 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:23.200 Think so like. 0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:26.640 I don't think Brandon like put like this is a coordinator. 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.680 I'm not going into a game worrying about Brandon Cooks. 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:32.360 I'm just telling you that, like if I go in 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.599 and I gotta check, I gotta in. My job is 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.320 to stop the Cowboys. I'm gonna stop Ceedee Lamb first. 0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:40.280 You don't have a tight end, all right, So therefore 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:41.880 Ceedee Lamb first. 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.159 And I think people get a forget about Gallup, what 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:45.200 about Michael gal comes up? 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:50.160 So Gallup and Cooks to me, are the Gallup, Gallup 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:50.760 and Cooks both. 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.440 Speed is their main threat. But I will say this 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:54.120 about Cooks. 0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.320 He's a he's a veteran, so he knows how to 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:58.320 go out there and be a pro. You know, how 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:00.839 to put itself in the right position, right spot to 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.480 catch those make those plays galloped. I think he's still 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:06.200 a little raw. He's still a raw with have come. 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.080 I watched his routes. I watch how he you know, 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:09.640 and then last year, you know, he came off of injury. 0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:11.760 So I can't really you know, put a lot on that, 0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:14.640 you know, knowing that he was injured. But you know, 0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:16.240 I just want to go back to what Fred said 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:20.400 about not worrying about cook. I won't say I won't know. 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.120 You have to worry about him because can stretch the 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:23.800 feel That's what I'm saying. He's going to open up 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.160 things for those guys because he can stretch the field. 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.800 If you sit there and say forget Cook. He's going 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:34.320 he's going for six, He's forget him. But my you 0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:36.200 don't have to game up around him. You don't have 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:37.720 to put you Cook. 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:39.520 So to me, what I see with Cooks is a 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:43.040 guy that makes you defend the field horizontally in a 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:44.920 way that you know when you watch Kansas City when 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.360 tyber Hill was there, you have made the field more open. 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.119 And then you said Ceedee Lamb's a slot receiver. 0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:53.280 You get a ninety PFF grade out of CD Lamb 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.080 this year because there's more space because of Cooks. 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.679 I don't I think it's a big scheme of things. 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.040 I just don't think like he's not gonna run us 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:05.240 oute of man to man, like I only judge why 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:10.040 I receive. Who runs us, who makes us, who makes 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:14.200 my coordinator change what we're doing, Like Brendan Cook is 0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:16.480 not gonna make us Like I'm still gonna check. 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:18.800 Ceedee Lamb the same exact way man under. 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.880 I watched everybody play the Cowboys last year because that 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:24.320 couldn't run because of him coming out of their injury. 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:26.720 Everybody played them two men under. 0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:30.480 So Cook never got separation. Well now that I mean, 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.719 I'm not cook I mean, ceedee lamb. 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:35.480 So now and Cook to that? Does that run me 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:36.120 out of two men? 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:38.560 I mean he's a four to three guy. 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.880 He's still running guy. He is. But people I just said, 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.040 don't get court slipping with him. That's what I say. 0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:45.080 You know, I'm one of those guys. 0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:48.040 Don't think this because he's now, he's up in those 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:50.040 years and he might not be the guy he was 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:52.000 a couple of years ago. I still I still think 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:53.439 he can get behind the defense, and that's one of 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:54.600 the reason why daughters went out there. 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:56.280 So I would say that those are the three teams. 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.280 I would say Washington is probably above because I think 0:08:58.280 --> 0:08:59.720 when you look at the Chargers, when you look at 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:02.920 Tempa Bay, when you look at Vegas, Philly, Miami, Seattle, Cincinnati, 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.319 I think those groups are pretty dynamic groups. 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.160 A lot of those groups who have a lot of 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:08.280 them a lot. 0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:14.080 Because you're a married man in Brandon Cooks has divorced. 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:18.200 More quarterback, I'm shocking at stability. 0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:19.199 Ain't your things? 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.280 Well? The fact that he can move scheme diagnostic, I 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:25.160 think is important with a quarterback like Dak Prescott. But again, 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.720 I think so those three teams, you guys agree, Xota, Arizona, 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:30.000 Dallas our teams, so. 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:35.120 At least seven, at least at least seven eight. Yeah, 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:36.319 we should be around. 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:37.920 There because I don't think I think the Chargers again, 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.360 they got Mike Williams, keenan All and those guys are awesome. Yeah, 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.600 Tampa Bay Mike Evans. I don't think you jumped Chris 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:46.280 Godwin either, He's outstanding. Vegas had a sneaky addition this offseason, 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.320 Tampa with Jacoby Myers, right. 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:51.520 Yeah, number one sneaky. 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:53.680 So again, like I'm not sure they jumped. Maybe they're 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:55.160 in that group. I don't know if they jumped that. 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:56.439 We still got to be proved. 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.400 I mean, like I said, for a lot of those 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.880 names stick out, and then you look at it. 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:02.800 You got quarterbacks and receivers. 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:03.680 That's the great point. 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:05.040 So that's when I look at that page and like 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.880 when you're talking about a core and you talk about 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.720 their quarterback, that made that court just that much, you know, 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:14.000 more more potent. So unless we really go out there 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:15.480 and play with our guys and see what we got, 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.680 we can't really talk of being you know, being above. 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:18.960 Some of the defense. A great point, right, like if 0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:20.560 you don't have the quarterback, Like it's hard to know. 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.520 Like I always tell why, I I'm going to burn you. No, 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:26.000 you're not not, not with Nathan Peterman. 0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:28.520 Throw you too. You don't got a chance with me. 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:28.959 All right. 0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:30.800 So you know, Mikelay's gonna come out with some new list. 0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:32.280 He hasn't come out with these yet, but I'll ask 0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:34.760 you guys. Right, So obviously we got a pretty good 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:38.199 defensive line room here. Where would Jane, where would you 0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:40.480 rank that group? Where would you rank that group? So 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:42.600 I got so I got some teams here right that 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:46.760 I think would compete with Washington in terms of you know, 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:51.160 the Eagles, the Eagles, San Francisco, the Jets, and Dallas 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:51.800 were the names that. 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:54.360 I came up with them the only ones, Like, there's 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:57.600 no other rooms that can compete with that, Like. 0:10:59.200 --> 0:10:59.960 Dallas, I wouldn't. 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.400 It is high because they have two edge guys. 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.120 They got two edge guys, but the interior it's missing 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:09.280 and that's why they drafted Mazi. Like but the Philadelphia 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:12.440 Eagles out of the room, that intrigues me because they 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:16.160 they also have two babies inside Jordan Davis and they 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:21.120 drafted uh Carded this year. Our guys are proving I 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:25.920 got it proven our first round picks, uh, and what 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:27.160 really does it for me? 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:30.000 With our room? We ain't seen the best of our 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.240 edges haven't seen it. We haven't seen the best. 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:34.320 And that's why I would say we at least top three. 0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:35.920 And that's the reason why I only I won't I 0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:38.640 won't go as far as one because we haven't seen 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:41.839 us be as potent collected we want to be. I mean, 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:45.120 we show we saw flashes year and year. You get 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:46.120 a player here, you know. 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:46.400 What I mean. 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:49.120 Sweat has been consistent for the most part. He still 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:52.320 haven't got up there and double showed us that year. Yeah, 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:56.480 but I think still with Sweat haven't shown us his best. 0:11:56.720 --> 0:12:00.000 And having Young just really getting back to health we were, 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.600 we won't really know what we have until all those 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:03.360 guys playing together. 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:06.320 Yeah, I think I think Young's health is a big deal. 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:09.640 It's the biggest thing, right because definitively, if he comes 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:11.440 out and is that guy that he was a couple 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:12.240 of years ago. 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:13.960 We need a disruptor. 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:17.040 We need a guy that what those two guys doing 0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:19.520 the inside on the edge, they just but I'm just 0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:22.760 saying far as just our our Allen and Payne. 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:25.200 You know you you rarely see that. 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:28.079 And when you saw that with Aaron Donald, like, man, 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.160 this guy just tearing up the inside of everybody's offensive 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:33.120 line and it got to the point to where you 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:35.440 can put anybody outside. But we have two of the 0:12:35.480 --> 0:12:38.400 best outside that what I'm saying, we can just see 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.480 all four of those guys play together for one year. 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:41.720 The top sell. 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:45.280 Inside built like this was Tampa Bay with one Sap 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:49.080 and book, all right, and it allowed the edge Russians 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:51.000 to never get double team right. 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:52.360 So now think about this. 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:55.920 You can't double team inside, you can't double team outside, 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.840 so you you're gonna be forced to leave people in 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:02.320 the chip. Running back to the chip changes changes, they 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:06.240 can change how you run. Plays like you cannot leave 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:08.680 and let everybody go out because if we need to 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.280 protect first, And that's why I think this line. 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:12.080 Think about this. 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:14.880 If I told you forty sacks from your start, and 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:19.040 for y'all'll be like this normal, right, you get forty 0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:21.400 sacks from this guy, but forty sex is a lot 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:21.760 of days. 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:24.920 Like that's ten a piece for these guys I think 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:25.360 they can do. 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.079 But what I would say is, with all that being said, 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:31.679 you can have the best guys up front, but when 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:33.840 your secondary, we we're gonna We're gonna still. 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:34.160 Get the ball off. 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:36.240 We're gonna get So that's why it's so vital for 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:38.839 us to make sure second the go get secondary is 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.480 now you got to play into our will power, and 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.720 our will power is getting getting you up front. How 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:46.560 many times last year you saw Sweat almost getting there, 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:48.640 he got that in the ball just got off and 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:50.679 they made a play down field. But now if you 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:52.600 got all those guys up front, and you got your 0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:54.679 guys in the secondary, those guys in the back end 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:56.760 locking their guys up that quarterback and hold on that 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:58.920 ball for that one more second eye for now us 0:13:58.920 --> 0:13:59.880 to get that side. 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:01.720 On this defense right now. 0:14:03.000 --> 0:14:06.960 I ain't backpelling now, son, I'm sitting flat foody, and 0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:10.880 you're gonna have to run past as I had. 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:13.240 A question for you. So obviously I think Payne and 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:18.160 Allen are top eight? Do you interior? Where did the 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:20.000 edge guys rank? You know, are they? 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.040 I know Monte is pretty close to being top ten. 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:25.080 I would say where's Chase sat and that because we 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:26.520 just talked about that's the thing that's going to take 0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.760 him over the hump, right So what do you need 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:30.040 to see from them to get I. 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.560 Think I think Chase is the one that is so 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:36.640 much damn upside, Like we ain't seeing the best of Chase, 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.880 Like even we haven't seen the best Wine. Back to 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:44.560 his rookie year, the last five games of the season, 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:52.040 he had combined five sacks, two forces, fumbles, touchdown. This 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:58.000 guy makes things happen. He makes things happen. So at 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:00.600 the end of the day, was he worth the second pick? 0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:00.920 Hell? 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:03.920 Yeah, he's that type of dude. He's Bruce Smith is 0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:04.800 all right. 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:08.720 Now the focus is is he focused on being that? 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:11.680 What do the hell Chase wants to be? 0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:14.640 And that's the key and he will never have it 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:17.520 better than he has here, meaning you'll never get more 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:19.040 one on one then you're gonna. 0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.480 Get with this the line. So this is the time 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:22.360 to show who he is. 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.760 So I think Chase is the one we're waiting on 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:26.600 to see who he is. 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:28.720 Is he the alpha of these affas? 0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:31.600 I think he's easily man. And I'm just saying this 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.680 without him having that injury. And I think the injury 0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:36.600 was one of those wake up calls, you know, to me, 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:39.760 like that second that second year was going so bad. 0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:42.280 I don't think he even realized how bad it was going, 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:43.800 you know what I mean. So the injury on top 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:45.320 of it having a bad year, now you got to 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:46.960 really wake up, Like now I was playing bad, and 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:49.240 now I'm hurt, and I got to overcome playing bad 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:52.440 being being more sound, technique sound, and then now I 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:54.120 got to get back to that health that had me 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:57.240 playing freely. So now you're gonna get a different kind 0:15:57.240 --> 0:15:58.800 of player. You're gonna get a player that said, okay, 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:01.440 I even saw last year and flashes. You got a 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:03.840 player there now like he's you can tell he's studying 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.160 what I need to do, not so much of just 0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:09.680 taking going out there and athletically dominating. You know, I 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:12.080 was one of those receivers. I talk about this openly 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.840 all the time. I didn't have to look at my opponent. 0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:18.800 I was gonna beat you every time. I was gonna 0:16:18.840 --> 0:16:21.000 beat you until I got that third knee injury, I 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:24.000 mean knee surgery. I said, oh boy, let me go 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:26.840 and watch this dude here and see what what age 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:28.840 can I take? You know what I mean. But what 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:31.280 that did also was it helped me watch the defense 0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:31.800 as a whole. 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:33.840 I care less about cover two, Cover one. 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:36.280
