WEBVTT - 360 Update: January 4

0:00:06.400 --> 0:00:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Everyone. I'm Alex Smith here with your three sixty update. Well,

0:00:09.440 --> 0:00:12.479
<v Speaker 1>when everyone looks back at the Eagles twenty and sixteen draft,

0:00:12.760 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>they'll point to that first selection of Carson Wentz being

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:18.400
<v Speaker 1>chosen with the second overall pick, But really the draft

0:00:18.440 --> 0:00:21.040
<v Speaker 1>and its entirety found a way to play an impact

0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:23.919
<v Speaker 1>role this season for the Eagles, and inside the locker

0:00:24.000 --> 0:00:26.279
<v Speaker 1>room we caught up with not just Carson Wentz, but

0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 1>with players like Jalen Mills and Wendell Smallwood who all

0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:33.239
<v Speaker 1>made an impact here in twenty sixteen. I think it's

0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:34.920
<v Speaker 1>very big, you know what I mean, I ricky class,

0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:36.720
<v Speaker 1>we did we did well, you know what I mean.

0:00:36.760 --> 0:00:38.040
<v Speaker 1>We have a lot to grow on. We have a

0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:39.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of things that will get better on. But for sure,

0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:42.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, as a young group, I mean, I think

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:45.800
<v Speaker 1>the more we progress, you though, um, the young guys,

0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the better team is gonna get for sure. I think

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:49.760
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's just great, a great thing kind of

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:52.160
<v Speaker 1>the young the young guys, and it kind of shows

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 1>you the future a little bit. And like we met

0:00:54.200 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 1>with we met with all the all the coaches and

0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>they believe this class was a great class and kind

0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 1>of it's showing our step and what we want to

0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:04.840
<v Speaker 1>be and what this team wants to develop into. So

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:08.199
<v Speaker 1>I think young guys coming in contributorarily kind of gives

0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you hope a little bit. You know. You just gotta

0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:12.920
<v Speaker 1>take things and stride and improved day to day and

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:16.840
<v Speaker 1>nothing real different, I guess in terms of preparation. You know,

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Sundays are different, but Monday through you know, the other

0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:22.720
<v Speaker 1>six days is the same for me. Just work my

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:26.320
<v Speaker 1>butt off, keep my head down, and then have fun

0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>on game days. Yeah, I mean, this is our first

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:31.240
<v Speaker 1>year here and you know, together and you know, we're

0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.880
<v Speaker 1>all doing the same thing, hitting the wall and everything.

0:01:33.920 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Where like things a long season, well, you know, we

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>have each other and we're like, hey, we can we

0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:41.600
<v Speaker 1>can do this, let's finish. Let's finished. Wrong. I did

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:43.559
<v Speaker 1>feel like it was long season, but like like they said,

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I did feel it went very fast. It's kind of

0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:50.000
<v Speaker 1>crazy that it's over now, you know. But I never

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 1>really experienced that wall. As a matter of fact. Later

0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>in the year that got us finally getting in the

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:58.840
<v Speaker 1>swing of things, finally getting used to that routine, and

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>so I never really felt that too much at Also,

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm thankful for that only time will tell how successful

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:09.799
<v Speaker 1>this draft class can be, but the Eagles twenty sixteen

0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>class certainly made an impact in their first season. And
