1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:00,720
Speaker 1: Excited.

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 2: If you've seen the draft room, we've got a little

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: tense there at you know, at three, but we're excited.

4
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 2: Did a lot of work on Anthony, spent a lot

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 2: of time with him, you know, over the last month.

6
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 2: And uh, I think he's a good fit for us.

7
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 2: Let's don't crown him yet, all right.

8
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: He's a young player.

9
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 2: He's got work to do, but we like we like

10
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: his talent, we like what he can be. And you know,

11
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: I can't I'm not gonna. I don't think Shan can tell

12
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: you either. But what I can tell you is, you know,

13
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: we drafted him for what we think he can really

14
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: be in the future. He's a very smart young man,

15
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 2: good kid, he works. We think it's all in front

16
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 2: of him. So we're excited to get him fire away.

17
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: What's that? I mean? Anytime before any anytime you're sitting

18
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: there and you you kind.

19
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: Of targeted a guy, and you know, and front of

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: you know that you always worry somebody jumping up and

21
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: getting him. You always wonder if somebody's laying in the weeds,

22
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: and and you know, good for us, they weren't.

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously the tape was the first time I saw

24
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 3: him just his playmaking ability, uh. What he brings from

25
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 3: a playmaking a billing and his physical uh skill set

26
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 3: is impressive. Obviously, there's a lot of work that we

27
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: got to do with the whole team, not just him,

28
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 3: I mean, but there's there's certain things that he brings

29
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 3: to the table that we're so excited about as a

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 3: football player in the future of this organization.

31
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: Yeah.

32
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 2: Well, look, he's young. He's young, but he's very poised.

33
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 2: I think you see it when he plays, Like when

34
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: you look at his he's a very poised young man.

35
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: Even even though he hadn't had a lot of stars.

36
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: Just the one thing that like we I mean, I

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 2: kept going back and watching, you know, like all his pressures,

38
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: everybody that pressured it, and that's when you really saw

39
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: his poise come to light.

40
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: Like like any young man.

41
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 2: You know, he's not even he turns twenty one here

42
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: middle of May, so he's gonna have growing to do

43
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: like all of them do.

44
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 1: But we'll help him. We'll help him and we'll bring

45
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: him along and he'll be a good player for us.

46
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 4: Because there's so much about him that people say needs

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 4: to be developed. But that's an area where quarterbacks show

48
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 4: that right.

49
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think with anything, right, I think the development

50
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 3: of players comes with more experience, right thirteen starts. I

51
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: think when you play more, that's how you develop, you

52
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 3: know what I mean. So with him playing and his

53
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 3: experience as a player and getting more reps right, practice reps,

54
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: game reps, I think that that's how you develop.

55
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 4: That's pretty strong. Yeah, there's no doubt.

56
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 3: I mean when you watch him against the pressure in

57
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 3: the pocket, just his movements in the pocket, you know,

58
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 3: feeling the rush, not seeing it, being able to get

59
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 3: out of the pocket and.

60
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 4: Create the explosive plays that he does is pretty dynamic.

61
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 2: We liked him a lot, Stacy, Yeah, yeah, we liked

62
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: him a lot.

63
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: I mean there's always and it's fair.

64
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: It's a fair assessment, and I think we've seen I

65
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: think the one thing we're seeing in the league now

66
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: is guys you can work on there and get them

67
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 2: more accurate, you know, just footwork fundamentals.

68
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: There certain things I think we can do.

69
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: And I think you've seen guys jump in our league,

70
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 2: and I think you'll see him jump. There's there's that's

71
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 2: part of it. It's part of just playing too. You know,

72
00:03:54,360 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: the more you play, when you.

73
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: Have the quarterback.

74
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 5: I normally is what can you do for it sooner

75
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 5: or not later?

76
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: What do you see immediately? I mean, is this It's

77
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: not a Richard I'm not gonna say that.

78
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 2: I mean, he's got to come in and you know,

79
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 2: earn his way, like every player we bring in. But

80
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 2: let's don't expect him to be superman from day one.

81
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 2: And I think history shows there's not many of them

82
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: that are superman from day one. Some of them it

83
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 2: takes two three years to come home a really good player.

84
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 2: It's probably the one area where.

85
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: Where I've seen that.

86
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,559
Speaker 2: And this is even before me even being in the league,

87
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: but it's the one area where teams that the pressure

88
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 2: for these guys after one or two years back I

89
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: mean ten fifteen years ago, guys would get year three,

90
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: four or five. I mean, think about Terry Bradshaw. He

91
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 2: might not ever played in today's NFL. It took him

92
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 2: Tom and Pittsburgh. You know, we all let these guys

93
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 2: develop and play and they're gonna have some struggle and

94
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: then they got to work through the struggles and eventually

95
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 2: their talent, the more they play, their talent will come

96
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 2: to life.

97
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 3: That yeah, I mean, Gardner is a good player. Obviously,

98
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 3: we brought him in here for a reason, and obviously

99
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: we'll see how that whole.

100
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 4: Thing shakes out, you know what I mean.

101
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 3: I mean, we got to get Anthony in here and

102
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 3: get them started and o ta's and go through training

103
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 3: camp and go through that process and see where it

104
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 3: goes from there. Like Games top.

105
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 5: Star, that had to make you a little.

106
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 2: Because you didn't know how this draft is gonna go

107
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 2: a month ago. Yeah, after we spend time with him,

108
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 2: you know, we knew after we spend our time working now,

109
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 2: spent a lot of time with him, just felt really

110
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 2: good about who he was as a person.

111
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: You know, of course he's still young, but just felt

112
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: really good about who he was. How many times?

113
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, we spent an entire day with him down

114
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 2: at Florida. I mean we actually worked him out. I

115
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 2: know there were some comments made that other teams went

116
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 2: and worked out and got to see more, But I

117
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: think when we went and worked him out, we got

118
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 2: to see a lot because we got to put him

119
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 2: through drills with just us, and then we brought him

120
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 2: into the building and spent another full day with him,

121
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 2: and then our you know, I give our.

122
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: Scouts credit now you know, Morocco Brown went in and.

123
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 2: Like back in August, I'm getting these text messages from Morocco.

124
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 2: He's at Florida practice going. You should see the show

125
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 2: that I'm watching on this practice field right now. So

126
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 2: we had some awareness of you know, who he was

127
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 2: and where he was, you know, what his talent level

128
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 2: was a while ago.

129
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think just his character, you know, the vetting

130
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 3: process that we did, calling around people that know him,

131
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: that have been around him. I mean, that's a big

132
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,679
Speaker 3: part of this thing. And there's a lot of guys

133
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 3: that I know that I trust that I talked to

134
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 3: about him, and everything was you know, right at the

135
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 3: top of the list as far as that concern, and

136
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 3: then just going through having him here, getting to know

137
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 3: him as a person.

138
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 4: Talking football with him. Uh.

139
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 3: I think he's got a chance to be a really

140
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 3: good player in this league.

141
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: I hate to give make that comparison. Yeah, he's pretty unique.

142
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: It's pretty unique athlete and talent.

143
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 3: Similar I think that's kind of what he just asked

144
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: the comp I'm not going to compare anybody. I think

145
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson is Anthony Richardson. He's his own person. I

146
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: don't like to compare.

147
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 4: Again, I'm not going to get into scheme either.

148
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I mean it's all encompassing, like when you're

149
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: evaluating any player like it.

150
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,239
Speaker 2: Every player's got it their own journey and their own story, okay,

151
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: of who they are and you know, and how they

152
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 2: got to where they are today. And you know, it's

153
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 2: it's been a and everyone's unique, you know, and it

154
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: makes us who we are.

155
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: And I mean just like all of you, you.

156
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: Have your own story of how you ended up where

157
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 2: you are today, and Anthony's got that.

158
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: I don't. And I think every plan in.

159
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 5: The draft has that. Everybody has their own story.

160
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 4: That's a good question. It definitely helps.

161
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 3: I mean when a guy can run and add that

162
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 3: element to your offense, I mean it's it's a big plus.

163
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 3: It puts stress on defenses. And obviously he has that capability. Uh,

164
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 3: but I I just want to sleep on his throwing

165
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 3: ability either. I mean, he that ball comes out pretty now,

166
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 3: he can spin it, he's got a huge arm, uh

167
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 3: and he's makes some huge plays in the past game.

168
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:29,839
Speaker 3: So we're excited to work with him. Yeah, no question.

169
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 3: Those are the conversations that we've had. Whatever quarterback, you know,

170
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 3: that we would have taken. I mean, those are the

171
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 3: things like those guys got to get reps right and

172
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: learn the system, learn the offense. And you guys have

173
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 3: heard me say this a bunch, right, we got to

174
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 3: build this thing around the quarterback.

175
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: And now you go ahead, what's that? Yeah?

176
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 2: Right right when we got on the clock, we he's emotional. Yeah,

177
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: he's emotional.

178
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is good. Look I'm emotional, So that's all right,

179
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: good for him.

180
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 2: Damn right, you got drafted four. You have some tears

181
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: coming out too. It's a big moment for him and

182
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 2: fere He's come from these guys about the background, family story,

183
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 2: all that. I mean, how much of that did you

184
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 2: talk to him about and what came through when you

185
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: had those conversations.

186
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 1: I think you know us well enough.

187
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: We go pretty in depth on knowing who's involved. And

188
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 2: it's a and not just to him, to everybody, you know,

189
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 2: former coaches, high school, I.

190
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: Mean as far back as you can go.

191
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: So look at all plays into the final decision of

192
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 2: what you make.

193
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 4: You know, he's got like a personal store, you know.

194
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I mean yeah, it plays, it plays into it,

195
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: but it also tells you a little bit about things

196
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 2: he can handle. You know, look, we all I'm not

197
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: gonna lie to y'all. I kind of I get frustrated.

198
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 2: Now I'm gonna go off on a sidebar here. All

199
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 2: the almost said a bad word, All the crap that

200
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 2: comes out about these kids, it's crap, like it's bullshit.

00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but it's bullshit. Like people that leak.

Speaker 2: These guys work their ass off to get where they

205
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,480

209
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: in the draft that are good kids. And I thought

210
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: I had to take a little bit of a beating

211
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 2: that they shouldn't have had to take.

212
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:54,320
