1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: With Caldarius, do you see him as a finished product

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: or is this receiver that you can bring in your

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: building and go from where he was last year to

4
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,239
Speaker 1: reach a ceiling that maybe you guys are projecting going forward. Look,

5
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,479
Speaker 1: every pick in this dress is projection. There's not a

6
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: single player who is NFL ready. Let's not make that mistake. Okay.

7
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 1: Everybody here in needs development, and part of the evaluation

8
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 1: is identifying how high their ceiling is. We're very excited

9
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: by adding him to our team. Uh, there's a lot

10
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: of things he can do as a lot of versatility,

11
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: But like every rookie coming in here, they've got to

12
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: earn what they get and want to work in multiple

13
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: positions to find the true strengths. We can't assume that

14
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: just what we saw in college tape is the best

15
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 1: fit for him. Mark Kennizero, New York Post. Hey, Joe, Um,

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: can you speak to maybe the roller coaster of emotions

17
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: as the as the first round was unfolding? Um, you know,

18
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: and I know Dave just addressed the fact that you guys,

19
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: you know, addressed the possibilities, But um, and the fact

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: that it was Philadelphia who as you will though, as

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: any as well. Know as well as anybody are not

22
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: very well liked in these parts that made that trade

23
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: to jump ahead of you that dynamic you speak to that. Yeah,

24
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: just first on the trade. I mean, look, trades happen

25
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: a lot. Uh normally doesn't have within division. But hey, look,

26
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: the enemy of my enemy is my friends. So you know,

27
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: they made a move that worked for them. It was

28
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: a good business of you know that being said in

29
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: terms of the roller coaster of emotions. Listen, you just

30
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: let the round play out. You evaluate all these players

31
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: for a reason. You never know it's going to shake out,

32
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: all right, you know where you want to take certain guys.

33
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: You know what you're looking at fill in terms of

34
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: the best player available and some positions of need. We're

35
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: very happy with how it turned out, though we have

36
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: great value. Let's not mistake that, you know these picks

37
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: there are people, so let's not forget about that. You know,

38
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: you're adding people to your team. You know, you talk

39
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: about the value of having good young, developmental players to

40
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: work with. And we just went through a season of

41
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: free agency, okay, where we invested a lot of the

42
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: team by adding veterans to our team. And this is

43
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: an opportunity to gain more picks to add good young

44
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: developmental players are team, whether it's this year or next.

45
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: Thanks jan Dan Douggan the f Letic, Hey Joe, I'm

00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: have felt comfortable going back like it was twenty as

48
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: far as you go and then, I mean, did you

49
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: expect that Tony would be there? Be're not sure when

50
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: you made the move. Yeah, you know what, to be

51
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: honest with you, Uh, you evaluate the players you've got

52
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 1: their value to the team. You can never assume anyone's

53
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: gonna be There's a lot of good players in this draft,

54
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of there's a lot of teams

55
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: who want those players for one reason or another. In

56
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: terms of a point that we wouldn't go back again,

57
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,839
Speaker 1: world was willing to listen to whatever comes our way.

58
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: It's the value of the trade relative to you know

59
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: who you're looking at right there. So for us it

60
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: was a good move or please the way it turned out,

61
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: we got a good player that's gonna be able to

62
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: come in compete with our team, and we have more

63
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: assets us in the future. Our SHORTZ New York Post.

64
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: Hey jo A couple of quick ones. Um, most people

65
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: thought that three quarterbacks would go, well, four quarterbacks would

66
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: go before you picked. Obviously only three did that. Once

67
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 1: you saw that happening, did you kind of get a sense, oh,

68
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: you know, these two or three guys we thought, you know,

69
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: one of them would definitely be there was not going

70
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: to be there. No, we played every scenario beforehand. As

71
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: Dave alluded to, we have lengthy meetings, a lot of

72
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: wood ifs. That's the way we operate in terms of,

73
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: you know, the coaching staff as well. Throughout the season.

74
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: It's our job to talk to the scenarios so when

75
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: the situation arises, we have a course of action and

76
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: a plan we can go and execute. And also, um,

77
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: Candarius had some injury issues at Florida and also some

78
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: quote unquote character issues, some things that need to be investigated. Um,

79
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: you know you couldn't get him in your building and

80
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: really you know, get to know him. Um, how you

81
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: figure that out and figure he's a guy it's worth

82
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: you know, the skill and the person has to add

83
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: up together. We've fully vetted every player on this board.

84
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: Were very comfortable bringing him to New Jersey. We're very

85
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: comfortable adding him to our roster to compete with other

86
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: players on the team. Listen, we use every resource we have. Okay,

87
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: Jeremy Prude, who's in our building. Jeremy recruited him out

88
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: of high school. So we have people in this building

89
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: that established relationships who have known this guy through the

90
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: course of not only being through college, but going back

91
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: to you know, when they were in high school developing

92
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: as a player. We have numerous coaches who you know,

93
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: along that time and recruiting. I've had this guy in

94
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: summer camps for you know, multiple days at a time

95
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: and had extended exposure to him. We use what's available

96
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: to us. We had guys at the pro day. We

97
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: have zoom meetings. Uh, there were a loted by the league.

98
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: We use those phone calls. We have a great medical staff.

99
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: We trust them to make decisions for the medical I'm

100
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: not a doctor, okay, so I trust Ronnie Barnes and

101
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: his staff in terms of anything else off the field. Again, um, look,

102
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 1: it's no secret I'm pretty particular about who I bring

103
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: into this building. Okay. I think sometimes you have to

104
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,679
Speaker 1: understand the person, and you have to understand the character

105
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: are on a deeper level than which is maybe tweeted

106
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: out last question here Tom Rock News Day, Joe, we

107
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: haven't spoken to you in a while. Uh, can just

108
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 1: talk about the overhaul of the offensive playmate was on

109
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: his team now going back to the middle of March

110
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: to tonight. Look, we're just looking to improve our team

111
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: in all three areas offense, defense, kicking game, and as

112
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: we worked through free agency, there were offensive players are

113
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: available we thought could come in here and compete with

114
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 1: our team and possibly improve us through competition. We're looking

115
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: to the same thing with defense and the kicking game

116
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: as well. All Right, we're not a finished product by

117
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: any means in any area. We're always looking to improve.

118
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: So if there's a good player out there, we're looking

119
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: at him. If they fit. We're looking to build
