1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Lost made of David cut cups work with with Daniel 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Do you see you know that show just the stuff 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,639 Speaker 1: he's learned and see that. Yeah, absolutely, I mean he's 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: obviously had He's done good work with a lot of quarterbacks. Um, 5 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: And so I've always admired coach cut Cliff and what 6 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: he's done. Um, he's an outstanding quarterback coach first sort 7 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: of where we all start when you get involved with 8 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: all this as a position coach. He's been an outstanding 9 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,200 Speaker 1: coordinator and he's outstanding head coach. And so I think 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: some of the things that he teaches you certainly see 11 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 1: in day one of minicamp. And that's that's partly why 12 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: all his quarterbacks have success, is they're well coached. How 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: much maybe mechanics, uh, footwork they're different from what they 14 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: were doing there and maybe what you're gonna expect from 15 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: him here, well we're much more under center. There's more 16 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: things that we're gonna do, but a lot of the 17 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: basic teaching and fundamentals are playing quarterback. You know, Dan 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: has a good feel for which there is nothing you 19 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: look at him and be like we need to change 20 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: this like thing, not at all. I think part of 21 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: part of this is is there's a certain way it's 22 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: supposed to be fundamentally, and he's got very good fundamentals. Uh. 23 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: Some of the plays that we're going to ask him 24 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: to execute are different than what he's done and so 25 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: then those will be new drops, Um, a little bit 26 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: different footwork, but um, he's pretty well coached. What do 27 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: you like about Jake Carlot signed him to a Yeah, 28 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: I mean he's obviously, Um he's a very good long snapper. Um. 29 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: You know, we're always looking for guys at skill positions. Um, 30 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: so he's had very good lines. He's a very accomplished 31 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: linebacker as well. So much like you know, Dungee is 32 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: going to compete a couple of different areas. Um, he's 33 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: gonna do the same for us. How much does drones 34 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: mobility bring to your guy's scheme and how much does 35 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: that kind of what drew you to him? Well, I mean, 36 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: gotta have all you've got to have all the traits, 37 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: you've got to be able to do all the things 38 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: the quarterback needs to do. But then when you find 39 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: a guy that's mobile, that's that's I mean, that's really 40 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: special in my mind. So, um, but he's a really 41 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: good decision maker. You've heard me say it before, and 42 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: it's it's really primary for quarterbacks. You have to be 43 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: very good decision maker. You have to have a sense 44 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: of timing. You know the rush is on me, I 45 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: gotta do something, or you know, I gotta get the 46 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: ball out now. So whatever that sense of timing things is, 47 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: you've got to be an accurate passer. Um. And then 48 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: I really believe you gotta have you gotta have an element. 49 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: You've gotta be able to move. There's gotta be mobility. 50 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: So whether you're moving around in the pocket or scrambling 51 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: or doing whatever, Um, you need to be able to move. 52 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: And he can do that. And then arm strength if 53 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: you don't have the first few arm strength means nothing 54 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: in my mind. Um, and he has arm strength as well. 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: I think you guys saw that yesterday. Well why why 56 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: do you think it was so much by d about 57 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: his arms strong? And some people just do not think 58 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: it's arms strangers. I don't know. I don't know that. 59 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: I wasn't involved in those debates. You know, we we 60 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: obviously felt differently. Um, So I I really couldn't tell you. 61 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: And indeed, when you look at that, you look at 62 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: you know, not just how far he throws the ball. 63 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: You want to see him up close and see how 64 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: the ball comes out right. But for those kind of things, 65 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: sure you saw nothing, think you now. I mean, we 66 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: certainly had many exposures starting with the Senior Bowl where 67 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: we were able to see him throw in person, and 68 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: so now we didn't. We didn't see anything any of 69 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: that perfect seem up closer to think better than I thought, 70 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: comes out better than I thought him stronger. No, I 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: watching him on tape, I thought he had a strong 72 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: enough arm to make all the throws. So I wasn't looking. 73 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: You're obviously looking to confirm it when you're when you're 74 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: with him in person, and we felt like he did 75 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: what going to be kind of like any other quarterback 76 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: based speeding the game and recognition this level. Yeah, I 77 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: think obviously the speed of the game is one thing, 78 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: but you know there's a lot of really good football 79 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 1: being played in at the college level. Uh, But it's 80 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: just getting the feeld. He's very smart and he picks 81 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: things up quickly. We can already see that, um, but 82 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: just getting getting used to things, and you know, speed 83 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: is one thing. Certainly getting used to what pro defenses 84 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: are gonna present to him, and then obviously getting to 85 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: know what we want to do schematically. So all that 86 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: really runs parallel. What kind of plan do you send 87 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: him home with for this following week or do you 88 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: trust that you like how he changed? You know what 89 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: he does, and I studied we trust him, but we're 90 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: gonna guide him certainly, uh, all the players, And I 91 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: think that's the that's the reason why I prefer to 92 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,559 Speaker 1: do the rookie minicamp the week before they can come back. 93 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: So what happens is this weekend, we give them a 94 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: certain amount of scheme. They see how we function. You know, 95 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: here's your locker, here's your helmet, here the meeting rooms, 96 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: this is how we move around um and so they 97 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: get they get oriented on that, and then we'll be 98 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: able to give them their iPads and you know, all 99 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: their materials, and so then they'll go away and we'll 100 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: be able to monitor how well they they look at 101 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: the stuff, and so when they come back, we can 102 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: coach them up on how they can do that better. 103 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: But I say he's watching from home, as questions would 104 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: have anticipating throughout the weet groups, communicating with him, gutting 105 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: in coaching him in that way from a far too. 106 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 1: Is that typical? I wouldn't anticipate that will happen. Yeah, No, 107 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: that's that's typically what will happened. So, you know, a practice, 108 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: when you come out here, there's a an install or 109 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: a lesson plan, and so as he gets more and 110 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: more lesson plans, then um, we'll just take him through. 111 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: What's your approaching? How much to give him now? I 112 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: mean nurses to playbook, liy give an all to him, 113 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: or you want to certain well he gets back here, 114 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: he's going to get it all, you know. I think 115 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: this weekend we just give him a portion of it. 116 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: I think the important thing for this weekend also is 117 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: for our draft picks and and and for free agents 118 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: and then the tryout guys to be able to come 119 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 1: out and get enough scheme where they can still function 120 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: and we can see them and their movement skills and 121 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: what they can do, you know. And I think so 122 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: that's important too. We've all been to we've all been 123 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: doing this long enough to know you've been to some 124 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: rookie mini camps were doesn't even look like football balls 125 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: on the ground, and it's hard to evaluate the players. 126 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: And so We've given him a lot of scheme, but 127 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: I think it's important to to run a camp here 128 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: where you can see everybody function and see if they 129 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: can move and do the things necessary. I don't want 130 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: to ask you about one of the tryout guys and 131 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: lay back down him bragging, I'm sorry I missed playing guy. 132 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: Tryout guys running back Tom brag. Well, he's a I mean, 133 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: he's a powerful guy, you know, and and you know 134 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: he's gotten enough reps where we see he's got pretty 135 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: good vision. You know, we haven't been hitting and at all, 136 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: but he's got looks like he's got really good balance 137 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: and body control, catches the ball well. Um, so he's 138 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: done a nice job, did you guys to a rich White? 139 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: Just watching him play, you know, we felt like he had, 140 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: you know, the skill and ability to be an NFL player, 141 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: you know, and you know, he runs good routes, he 142 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: um catches the ball well, and he's got pretty good 143 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: instincts and and he's he's smart. You know, I can 144 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: see just in the couple of sessions we've had here 145 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: that he'll be able to pick it up. Big George, 146 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: Big George m. We liked him for all the reasons 147 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: we liked him on college tape. He's a big, powerful man. 148 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: He's got really good length um and and he plays. 149 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: You can tell he's a very physical style player, and 150 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: I think that's important at the position people thought that 151 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: he might happen the other side. You see him as 152 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: a yeah, for sure, we're gonna we're gonna play him 153 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: at first at right tackle. The opportunity to speak to 154 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: Eli and see him work this sweek and what have 155 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,599 Speaker 1: you seen his response to me? Obviously this is a 156 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: first round quarterback drafted behind him, He's had no response. 157 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: I will say this again, I've never been around a 158 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: person that can stay in the moment better than Eli, 159 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: and I think that's that's something that's really really unique 160 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: about him. He's staying in the moment. He's training to 161 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: to play and have a terrific season, and he looks 162 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: really good out here, you know, throwing and moving and 163 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: doing all the things necessary. It's a second year in 164 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: our system, so he's got I mean, he knows what 165 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: we do. He knows what we're doing better than some 166 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,719 Speaker 1: of the guys teaching him, you know. So m
