Speaker 1: Everyone. I'm Alex Smith here with your three sixty update. Well,
Speaker 1: when everyone looks back at the Eagles twenty and sixteen draft,
Speaker 1: they'll point to that first selection of Carson Wentz being
Speaker 1: chosen with the second overall pick, But really the draft
Speaker 1: and its entirety found a way to play an impact
Speaker 1: role this season for the Eagles, and inside the locker
Speaker 1: room we caught up with not just Carson Wentz, but
Speaker 1: with players like Jalen Mills and Wendell Smallwood who all
Speaker 1: made an impact here in twenty sixteen. I think it's
Speaker 1: very big, you know what I mean, I ricky class,
Speaker 1: we did we did well, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: We have a lot to grow on. We have a
Speaker 1: lot of things that will get better on. But for sure,
Speaker 1: you know, as a young group, I mean, I think
Speaker 1: the more we progress, you though, um, the young guys,
Speaker 1: the better team is gonna get for sure. I think
Speaker 1: it's just it's just great, a great thing kind of
Speaker 1: the young the young guys, and it kind of shows
Speaker 1: you the future a little bit. And like we met
Speaker 1: with we met with all the all the coaches and
Speaker 1: they believe this class was a great class and kind
Speaker 1: of it's showing our step and what we want to
Speaker 1: be and what this team wants to develop into. So
Speaker 1: I think young guys coming in contributorarily kind of gives
Speaker 1: you hope a little bit. You know. You just gotta
Speaker 1: take things and stride and improved day to day and
Speaker 1: nothing real different, I guess in terms of preparation. You know,
Speaker 1: Sundays are different, but Monday through you know, the other
Speaker 1: six days is the same for me. Just work my
Speaker 1: butt off, keep my head down, and then have fun
Speaker 1: on game days. Yeah, I mean, this is our first
Speaker 1: year here and you know, together and you know, we're
Speaker 1: all doing the same thing, hitting the wall and everything.
Speaker 1: Where like things a long season, well, you know, we
Speaker 1: have each other and we're like, hey, we can we
Speaker 1: can do this, let's finish. Let's finished. Wrong. I did
Speaker 1: feel like it was long season, but like like they said,
Speaker 1: I did feel it went very fast. It's kind of
Speaker 1: crazy that it's over now, you know. But I never
Speaker 1: really experienced that wall. As a matter of fact. Later
Speaker 1: in the year that got us finally getting in the
Speaker 1: swing of things, finally getting used to that routine, and
Speaker 1: so I never really felt that too much at Also,
Speaker 1: I'm thankful for that only time will tell how successful
Speaker 1: this draft class can be, but the Eagles twenty sixteen
Speaker 1: class certainly made an impact in their first season. And
