I'm just thankful that 17 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: preseason football is over. 18 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: One step closer, Craig. 19 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: Yes, it's a giant step though, because two weeks from 20 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: Sunday is when Week one, when you'll be in New Orleans, 21 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: Week one, when the Cardinals visit the. 22 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 3: Same I can't believe that feels really soon? 23 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: What two weeks? Yeah, it's still a ways away. I know, 24 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: it's just got the Labor Day weekend beforehand. You're not 25 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: stressing already about packing, are you? 26 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 3: I am? 27 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 1: Now? 28 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 3: I wasn't. I am? 29 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: Now? Do you know what you don't have to worry about? 30 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 3: Tell me the weather? Hey, yes, that's right, you know 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: what that is. We're pretty lucky this year. The only 32 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 3: outdoor weather games are Tampa, which is late in the 33 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 3: year November, so that should be fine at least humidity wise. 34 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 3: And Cincinnati. And I say this so early, so please 35 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 3: do not make me crow. I'll be okay if that's 36 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 3: the one game, because that's in December. If it's snowy, 37 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 3: if it's cold, whatever. I've been told though, Cincinnati doesn't 38 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 3: really get a lot of snow, which is crazy to 39 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: me as someone who lives in Arizona now, so I 40 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 3: think all in all we should be good on weather. 41 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 3: We've we've lucked out pretty much. Everywhere we travel is indoors. Oh, 42 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 3: I hope minus Seattle, so that'll rain. 43 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: I hope Mother Nature is not listening right now, because 44 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: they're just gonna be a bunch of snow dumb. 45 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 3: We have lucked out the last couple of years and 46 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 3: we've had late outdoor games and we've been okay in weather. 47 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: So if this is the year we have one game, 48 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 3: you know what, that's okay, we'll do. 49 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: And the big thing is, and I'll say this during 50 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: the season, because I don't care what the weather is. 51 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: Once the ball is kicked off, well, the game is 52 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: kicked off. It's the two hours in which Danny is 53 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: on the sidelines during pre game. That's what we care about. 54 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 3: We don't care about Paul. 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: No, we don't care about Paul. Oh does anyone? Yes, 56 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: people do care about Paul. 57 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 3: I just care about Paul. 58 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: That's gonna get clipped, by the way and play back 59 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: and come back to hunt you at some point, Danny. 60 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 3: I'm sure of it. 61 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: All right. So this is Monday, as we speak, Tuesday, 62 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: one pm. Every team across the NFL has to trim 63 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: their roster to fifty three Cardinals. As we heard from 64 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 1: head coach Jonathan Gannon post game Saturday nights, tough part 65 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: of the job, tough decisions ahead. Some decisions have already 66 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,279 Speaker 1: been made, and I wasn't expecting this because typically historically 67 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals make all of their moves at one 68 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: time and do it sometime Tuesday afternoon. Though early afternoon 69 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: on Monday, we did get an official release twelve players, 70 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: so the roster is now down to seventy nine. But 71 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: twelve players have been released, no big surprises. The big 72 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: name is quarterback Clayton Tune. So no three quarterbacks on 73 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: the fifty three man roster, which I don't believe was 74 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: really a discussion at any point. We're not the Cleveland 75 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: Browns where you're gonna keepep four and then have a 76 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: fifth on IR. But I do think there's a potential 77 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: of Clayton coming back on the practice squad. You are 78 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: going to need a third quarterback this season, You're gonna 79 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: need a third arm. It's just who, But I do 80 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: believe I believe it's going to be Clayton Tune. 81 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 3: Head coach Jonathan Gannon likes what the progression Tune has 82 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: made over the last three years. It's really big picture 83 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: about having good footwork, tied with the right eyes more consistently, 84 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 3: and also just playing quarterback, like let the ball rip, 85 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: don't hang onto the ball too long. You see your 86 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 3: receiver open, throw him open. They like Clayton Tune. You 87 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: have to take these cuts, even the ones that will 88 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 3: be announced Tuesday afternoon, almost with a grain of salt, 89 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 3: because this is a multi step process. Just because your 90 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 3: cut doesn't mean that one you won't land on another team. 91 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 3: Two doesn't mean he won't land with the Cardinals. There's 92 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 3: a sixteen man practice squad. So you caught a player, 93 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 3: you have to wait for them to clear waivers and 94 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 3: then the Cardinals can bring them back on the practice squad, 95 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 3: which is what a lot of teams and a lot 96 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 3: of players like to do because there's familiarity there. Right. 97 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 3: If you have an option as a player to go 98 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 3: to practice squads for two different teams, more times than not, 99 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 3: the players going to want to stay where they have 100 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 3: experience and knowledge of the playbook and the chemistry with players, 101 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 3: because then you might be more likely to get called 102 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 3: up because you have that continuity and understanding already there. 103 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 3: So we'll see where these players, the twelve that work 104 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 3: cut Monday afternoon land. And it's also something to keep 105 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 3: in mind of the initial fifty three, right is the 106 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 3: Cardinals could have an initial fifty three Tuesday, and then 107 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: when they're looking at the waiver wire, and they really 108 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 3: like someone who's available, that's available to the Cardinals at sixteen, 109 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 3: because that's where they're going to be right now. Things 110 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 3: could still change. 111 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: That's why when you say final, it's never final. It's 112 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: not even final Wednesday. It's not even final Thursday. Especially 113 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: with what we've seen actions over words with GM Monti, 114 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: Austin Fort. When it comes to the last what six 115 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: seven spots on that fifty three, you're always well, you're 116 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: always bringing in players to try out in case you 117 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: need somebody. And then if someone catches your eye, are 118 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: they better than what we have in that position? Room, third, fourth, fifth, 119 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: whatever player in that room, you make a move. So 120 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: never feel comfortable as a player. I think it's a 121 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: good mindset to have, no matter who you are, even 122 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: if you are an established player, because if you have 123 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: that a little bit of an edge, then I think 124 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: you perform, at least me personally, I think you perform 125 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: just a little bit better. 126 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 3: There's a good chance the Cardinals are going to lose 127 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 3: some good players. This is a numbers game, and you 128 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: look at the defensive line room as a great example. 129 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 3: There's a lot of depth there, even just beyond the 130 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 3: experience Dalvin Thomlinson's Kaleis Campbell's right, Justin Jones of the world. 131 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 3: Look at someone like undrafted rookie Elijah Simmons, who has 132 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 3: received a significant amount of prey from the coaching staff, 133 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 3: saw some good live action reps in preseason. That could 134 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 3: be a player that the Cardinals could really like, but 135 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 3: given he's put out good tape, another team can want 136 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: to snack him up. That is the blessing and the 137 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: curse that the Cardinals have drafted really well the last 138 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 3: three years, had some really good player development that at 139 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: some point you're gonna have to make the tough decision 140 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: and try and look in the magic ball and say, okay, 141 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: if we've got multiple players who we feel like have 142 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: high ceilings, who can really make the most impact. 143 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: And this is what you want if you're a general 144 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: manager or a head coach, you want to have these 145 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: tough decisions. You bring up defensive line. I don't know 146 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: if you noticed or not, but another name to consider 147 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: as far as if this team keeps six or seven, 148 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: what's the health status of a Walter Nolan, A Balal 149 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: Nichols and Justin Jones. But PJ. Mustifer only played fourteen 150 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: snaps on Saturday night, the fewest of any defensive lineman 151 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: in five played. Dante Stills did not Calliard did not play, 152 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: Kalays Campbell did not play. Dalvin Tomlinson did not play. 153 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: So does that signal something that PJ, who's played very well. 154 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 3: He made some plays Saturday night and that. 155 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: A week before had two tackles for loss. So not 156 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: only is he doing it during practice, but showing up 157 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: in the game When you get that top on the 158 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: shoulder in that third preseason game, hey we've seen enough. 159 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: Does that Is that an indication that, hey, we want 160 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: to make sure you're good healthy because you've made the team. 161 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 3: It's also a chess match, Hey, we don't want to 162 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 3: have you put too much tape out there. 163 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: Now. 164 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 3: Look, that's probably not the case because by that point 165 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 3: he had played in two preseason games, right, So a 166 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 3: third if another team's look and they probably already have 167 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 3: a good idea. But it is it is definitely like 168 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 3: a little chess match that all the teams have going 169 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 3: on of I want to try and keep this guy 170 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 3: under the raider so we can sign him to the 171 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 3: practice squad, and nobody else wants to take him above us. 172 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 3: It's gonna be It's definitely going to be interesting the 173 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 3: decisions that are going to be made. There's not a 174 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 3: position room where a decision made would surprise me, just 175 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 3: given what we have talked about all off season, with 176 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: the free agency and draft moves, without training camp and 177 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 3: preseason games, you can take a good guess of where 178 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: the numbers might change based on how many they kept 179 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 3: in a certain position room last year. Right, very likely 180 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 3: the Cardinals would take an extra d line in this year, 181 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: go from six to seven. Maybe you take that number 182 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 3: out the wide receivers room, you go from six to five. 183 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: I don't foresee the number in the running backs room 184 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 3: changing despite that being a really competitive room. You've just 185 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 3: got so many other really competitive rooms as well. And 186 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 3: given what you have seen in James Connor, Trey Benson, 187 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 3: Amari de Mercado, and then DJ Dallas on special teams 188 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 3: as great as Michael Carter is, do you have room 189 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 3: to add a fifth? You kept Carter on the practice 190 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 3: squad last year, and it's it's very tough because all 191 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 3: of those running backs have a unique skill set and 192 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: this is an offense that is run heavy, So you 193 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 3: could absolutely make the argument of you need a lot 194 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 3: of good running backs. Numbers wise, I don't know how 195 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 3: that is something that can get pulled off. 196 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: It's funny because we had this same conversation a year 197 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: ago about the running back I was. 198 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: Saying, there's no way you can't take all five. 199 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: I'm actually leaning at least i'm general manager of this team, 200 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: which I'm not, thankfully, I kind of did my own 201 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: little fifty three and figuring out where I can go heavy, 202 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: where I might go a little bit lighter, because I 203 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: do think you might go seven defensive linemen because of 204 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: the depth. The question though, is again the injuries. Justin Jones, 205 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: is he available Walter Nolan? Is he going to be 206 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: healthy enough? Maybe he misses a game or two, but 207 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,599 Speaker 1: you don't want him to miss four games, and it 208 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: may be six because if you stay on pup, you 209 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: can't even practice for those first four weeks, and then 210 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: you come off pupp you're still going to need a 211 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: week or two to get game ready. So now you're 212 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: looking at a six or seven game absence, especially for 213 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: someone who hasn't done anything so far in the preseason. 214 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: And then I believe, based off this offense, you don't 215 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: need six wide receivers. I think you might go with five, 216 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: which opens up the spot. And I based off what 217 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: I've seen out of Michael Carter and thinking that, okay, 218 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: special teams. Is he a DJ Dallas special teams player? No, 219 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: but he has he's shown you enough special teams wise. 220 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: And if this team is looking to get a little 221 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: bit faster on special teams based off the new rules 222 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: kickoff kickoff coverage, does that help you a little bit 223 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: to have a jersey on game day? Or is Michael 224 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: Carter this year's Travis Vocalleek who is inactive but in 225 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: case in an emergency, you have someone, but you're just 226 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: waiting your time. 227 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 3: That's a great point. Michael Carter would add a lot 228 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 3: to this offense on the roster. He added a lot 229 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 3: whenever his name was called upon last season and was 230 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 3: elevated from the practice squad. He's smaller man, is he fast? 231 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 3: He is twitchy. You saw Saturday's game he bounced off 232 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 3: defenders and then spun out for a chunk play For 233 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 3: a small running back. He is tough to bring down. 234 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 3: He would absolutely add something to that room. And you 235 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: bring up a good point is maybe you don't have 236 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 3: to make that decision right now. If you're gonna put 237 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 3: a player like Walternle in the third, bj Ojalari, Justin 238 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 3: Jones on POP, then they don't go towards your fifty three. 239 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,599 Speaker 3: That's the difference with PUP and IR. One of the 240 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 3: big differences is if you put a player on IR 241 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 3: first off, If you put a player on IR up 242 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 3: until this point, they can't play all year. So that's 243 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 3: that's one of the main differences. But with POP it's 244 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 3: similar in the sense where if you start the season 245 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 3: on PUP, you are out for a minimum of four games. 246 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 3: So now you have to start looking at these players 247 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 3: who are rehab injuries and say, okay, how realistic is 248 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 3: that that you will be ready to go before week four. 249 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 3: A lot of these guys haven't even been in pads 250 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 3: in quite some time, so that will be an interesting 251 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 3: piece of all of this, is what are you doing 252 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 3: with the players that are rehabbing and whether or not 253 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 3: they're going to your initial fifty three because of not 254 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 3: that absolutely opens up a spot for somebody like Carter. 255 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: I bring up Travis Vocolek, who again going back to 256 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: snap counts on Saturday only on the field for six snaps. Now, 257 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if that says more about his place, 258 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: but I do think based off again, how this offense 259 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: is run to three tight ends and vocal Ek is 260 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: built a little bit more like a tip ryman six 261 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: six two forty. Not that he might get claimed by 262 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: another team, but you can only elevate a player so 263 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: many times from the practice squad to your game day 264 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: roster before you have to add him to your roster. 265 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: And he did make the team last year in cases 266 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: of emergency, and there was the one game where Drey 267 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: McBride did not play and Vocalect was active. But it's 268 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: can you count on that room being healthy all season 269 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: long like it was in twenty twenty four. 270 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 3: I don't see the tight end room as a room 271 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 3: that's having a number change from last year. You're able 272 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 3: to make it work with four. That's a position room where, 273 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 3: similar to the running backs of you run the ball 274 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 3: off and you're in a multi tight end set very 275 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 3: often with this offense, and those are some strong blocking 276 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 3: tight ends. I don't foresee that number changing if you 277 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 3: had Vocalect on the roster last year. That's a position 278 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 3: room that has really just elevated this year. I could 279 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 3: see him making the final roster. 280 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: I think he's good to go. Another player based off 281 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: of snapcount, and I know we discussed it on the 282 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: radio broadcast. A Q Shipley noticed it and then as 283 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: we were watching the television monitor, I know you had 284 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: a sideline hit about this individual. Josh Fryar only on 285 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: the field for ten snaps and then was pulled from 286 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: the game. Started at right tackle last week and Denver 287 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: started at left tackle, so showing that versatility, but only 288 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: played three series before he got the tap on the shoulders. 289 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: That's someone that because Christian Jones, Hayden Connor, Will Hernandez, 290 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: they're uncertain futures, at least initially Week one. Is Josh Fryar, 291 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: someone who was undrafted make this fifty three man roster. 292 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 3: Friar is somebody this coaching staff really likes. That versatility 293 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 3: is a major part in that and being able to 294 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: play on both sides. You want to have offensive line 295 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 3: depth where yes, if you need you're in a pinch 296 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 3: and you need somebody to step up. Absolutely, that's not 297 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 3: gonna be Friar. He's an undrafted rookie. That move if 298 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 3: he makes the final Row would be we really like 299 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 3: what we see in him. We feel like there is 300 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 3: a high ceiling. Let's keep him and develop him. It's 301 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 3: almost the same with almost every offensive line offensive lineman 302 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 3: minus somebody like Baris Johnson Junior who is able to 303 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 3: come in and be a starter day one. Look at 304 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 3: someone like Isaiah Adams. You need that time to build strength. 305 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 3: You have to add muscle, you have to get stronger, 306 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 3: you have to have better footwork and pad level and 307 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 3: all of those things. I like what Josh Fryar has 308 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 3: shown though, because he has shown that versatility, he's shown 309 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: that he can win in some one on one throughout 310 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 3: training camp. So that is definitely an interesting name when 311 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 3: you talk about the positions, the players rather that are 312 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 3: dealing with injuries right now in that position room. 313 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: And when you have a player like a Josh Fryar 314 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: who's young and maybe not quite ready to play week one, 315 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: start week one, but you want to develop. But there 316 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: are a handful of players that Okay, yeah, practice squad, 317 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: you can develop. But then there are players that are 318 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: just too talented or you've invested too much, maybe like 319 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: an Elijah Jones, former third round pick going into year two. 320 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 1: But really hasn't had a season or a game yet 321 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: because of injuries, and you want to develop further, but 322 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: you're afraid if you expose them to the waiver wire 323 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: they'll get claimed. And again, now all of a sudden, 324 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: you're you're taking up a roster spot with still a 325 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: developmental player who you just want to keep in the 326 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: building and don't want to see elsewhere possible. 327 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 3: They did that with Christian Jones last year, to where. 328 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: You become a red shirt where you're just inactive. Yes, 329 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: it does happen, and that's again, that's the the chess 330 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: matches you call it as far as okay, who can 331 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: we afford to put through waivers to get back on 332 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: the practice squad? Who do we think might be of 333 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: interest to another team? 334 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 3: You know what, when you when you talk about the 335 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 3: waiver wire too, Starling Thomas is a name that comes up. 336 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 3: Thomas was claimed by the Cardinals after he was waived 337 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 3: by the Lions at this point, but then a few 338 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 3: short weeks found himself as a starter that first season 339 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 3: after not being with the Cardinals throughout the offseason at all. 340 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 3: I'll be intrigued to see who the Cardinals bring in 341 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 3: sitting at sixteen. 342 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: This year depends on how certain rooms shake out. And again, 343 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: as you brought up, when you're sitting at the sixteenth spot, fifteen, 344 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: teams have to say no, we don't want you. 345 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 3: Maybe a player wants to sign somewhere else. Maybe a 346 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 3: player that the Cardinals cut and is available and they 347 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 3: want to bring on the practice squad. A player might 348 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 3: say I want to go somewhere else. Anything can really happen. 349 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: One more offensive player that I do think has certainly 350 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: impressed me, and we've seen it now for two straight weeks, 351 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: and that is wide receiver Simi Fejoko, who now only 352 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: has two touchdown catches in as many weeks. But the 353 00:18:55,160 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: more impressive highlight from Saturday was catching the time and 354 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: then making the special teams tackle on the ensuing kickoff. 355 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 1: That that is not easy to do because you're celebrating 356 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: the score. And then all of a sudden, wait a second, 357 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: Jeff Rodgers is telling you to go back on the 358 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: football fields. You got to switch your mindset and then 359 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: understand what your role is on teams and then bust 360 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: your butt down the field to make the tackle. And 361 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it's like, wow, that's Fejoko again 362 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: on the tackle just scored and it's that bang bang 363 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: that certainly impressed JG. 364 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 3: It's been made pretty clear if your name is not 365 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 3: Marvin Harrison Junior or Michael Wilson or Zay Jones, you 366 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 3: need to make sure that you can be an ace 367 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 3: on special teams. That's outside the wide receivers room. Look 368 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 3: at the rotation on the defensive side of the ball 369 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 3: with the defensive linemen and the outside linebackers. They use 370 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 3: a rotation. So if you're going to go out there 371 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 3: and earn a jersey on game day, you need to 372 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 3: make sure you're not only making impact on that part 373 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,479 Speaker 3: of the game, but also you can be available on 374 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 3: special teams if need be. You I have to earn 375 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 3: your spot. Someone like Fajoco is a good addition to 376 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 3: this team. Doesn't mean you're gonna see him out there 377 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 3: opposite of Harrison quite often. Like he's not gonna get 378 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 3: that wide receiver to job over Jay Jones or Michae Wilson. 379 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 3: He's still going to be an integral piece of this 380 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 3: offense because one he has that knowledge, he has the 381 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 3: versatility to be a wide receiver and move along the 382 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 3: field wherever they need him to be in a pinch. 383 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 3: That's great too. Special teams that is huge. The players 384 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 3: that the Cardinals moved on from in free agency were 385 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 3: players who would played a significant amount of time on 386 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 3: special teams. Wide receiver Zach Pascal was that player for 387 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 3: the Cardinals. The last couple of years left in free 388 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 3: agency is in New York right now. So now you 389 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 3: bring in Fojoko, and he seems to be able to 390 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 3: kind of fill that void. And that's what you want, 391 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 3: is you want somebody who's not only going to be passionate, 392 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 3: passionate about playing on offense, but also passionate about playing 393 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 3: on special teams and making an impact there. While the 394 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 3: Cardinals are smaller on special teams size wise, they are 395 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 3: faster and give some of the changes the rule changes, 396 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 3: it's probably where the Cardinals wanted to go. 397 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: JG doesn't give praise a lot, especially when you bring 398 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: up individuals, but I thought it was telling postgame when 399 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: Simmy the question was asked about him, and JG said, 400 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: he had a hell of a camp and a preseason, 401 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: so it's not like he just flashed in those final 402 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: two preseason games. He was showing up during practice and 403 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: again get open, catch the ball. Those are the two 404 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: rules for a wide receiver. Simmy has done that as 405 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: a Xavier Weaver Tejon Palmer. The inconsistencies there, and then again, 406 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 1: if you do decide to keep a six wide receiver, 407 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: then maybe there is room for a z A Weaver 408 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: or a Tejon Palmer or someone else. I just think again, 409 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: going back to how this offense runs, you can go 410 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: one less in the wide receiver room and go a 411 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: little heavier somewhere else, whether that's running back, defensive line, 412 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: or somewhere on. 413 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 3: The secondary cornerback. Safety safety is kind of a sneaky room. 414 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 3: I'll be interested to see what they do behind Buddha Baker, 415 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 3: Jalen Thompson and Rabbit Taylor Demerson. You've kept Joey Blunt 416 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 3: as a safety that you want to talk about someone 417 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 3: who makes an impact on special teams, that is Joey Blunt. 418 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 3: They really like the rookie Keaton Crawford, who's also been 419 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 3: playing on special teams. Can you afford to have five safeties? 420 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 3: If not, do you make room so that you can 421 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 3: carry five safeties. There's some things that'll be interesting how 422 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 3: it shakes. 423 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: Out when we say five safeties. No, it doesn't make sense. 424 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: You can't keep that many. But and I'll go back 425 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: to the running back room. I don't and I mentioned 426 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: this a year ago when we were having that running 427 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: back conversation, I don't count DJ Dallas. Yes, he's a 428 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: running back by trade, but his role on game day 429 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: is kickoff returner. So all right, so you have five safeties. Well, 430 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: Joey Blunt again hypothetical here makes the team game day. 431 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: You're not a safety. You're playing all four coverage units, 432 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: in return units. Okay, you're a safety by name, but 433 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: you do so much more. And all of a sudden, 434 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: you're playing more than maybe the fourth running back or 435 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: the fifth wide receiver or the sixth defensive lineman. You're 436 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: valuable more on special teams. And then, as Nick Rolis 437 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 1: likes to say, someone loses a shoe, got a I 438 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: got Joey Blunt over here. Okay, he's ready to go. 439 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 3: This is the hard part, and that's the business side 440 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 3: of the NFL is there are good players that are 441 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 3: going to be cut, and then they are also going 442 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 3: to be players where you're looking at and you say, 443 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 3: why on earth are they keeping five safeties? And then 444 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 3: when you understand the explanation like that, it makes a 445 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 3: lot more sense. 446 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: What do we think of Xavier Thomas and Jordan Birch, 447 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: the former high school teammates combined on the Birch with 448 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: the stripsack, Thomas with the fumbal recovery, you keep five 449 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: outside linebackers. I think there's more than enough room. Again, 450 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: we don't know where Ojulari is in his recovery. If 451 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: he remains on pop okay, maybe there's an opening for 452 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: a fifth outside linebacker. Or because you paid the ball 453 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: out of money to Josh Sweat and you've got Baron 454 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: Browning and Zavon Collins, you expect more snaps for them 455 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: to maybe that lessens the need for an extra outside linebacker. 456 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 3: It's clear given the snap count for these last few 457 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 3: preseason games that Birch is above Thomas at least if 458 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: that's how we're if we're reading the tea leaves from 459 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 3: this coaching staff, that's what they feel. You bring in 460 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 3: Josh Sweat, you resign Baron Browning, You like what Zavion 461 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 3: Collins does. What's the question around Bijo Jelari bringing in 462 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 3: not only resigning Browning, but bringing in Sweat just adds 463 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 3: so much to a room that really had to manufacture 464 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 3: a lot of pressure without a ton of pressure from 465 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 3: the d linemen in front of them. So by elevating 466 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 3: the defensive line room, bringing in someone like Sweat and 467 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 3: resigning Brown, who this coaching staff is very high on, 468 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 3: I don't know that there's room to have that many 469 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,199 Speaker 3: outside linebackers because you're not going to have to be 470 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 3: relying on that manufacturer the manufacturing that sort of pressure 471 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 3: from such a large group this year because you've brought 472 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 3: in so much more experience. That to me feels like 473 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 3: if we're talking about two players kind of going head 474 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 3: to head, it's is their room for both of them? 475 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: Right? 476 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: We keep talking about all these other positions where oh 477 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 3: can you take one more? At some point you're gonna 478 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: have to take one less than the year before in 479 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 3: that position room and that that's definitely a position battle 480 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 3: that my eyes are going to go to very quickly 481 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 3: when that final, say final, the initial fifty three roster 482 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,199 Speaker 3: comes out. Because Xavier Thomas has looked very good in 483 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 3: these preseason games. You've seen his power, his speed has 484 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 3: been he has been relentless to get to the quarterback, 485 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 3: to get the ball. His name has been called quite 486 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: a bit on the broadcast. Is that enough? Because it's 487 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 3: not just oh, he's good enough to make the team, 488 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 3: it's look at everyone else? Is he better than anyone 489 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 3: else in the room? 490 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: Five tackles, two tackles for loss, two sacks, five quarterback hits, 491 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: a fumble recovery, plus a special teams tackle. That's what 492 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: Xavier Thomas did on Saturday night alone. Played fifty one snaps, 493 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: the most of any defensive player, and again special teams. 494 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: Do you have a role if you're that fourth or 495 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: fifth outside linebacker to where maybe you don't get enough 496 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: or a lot of snaps on defense? And the other 497 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 1: thing when you're talking about outside linebacker, this coaching staff 498 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: they ask a lot out of that position. Room. It's 499 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: not just go get the quarterback. Can you set the edge? 500 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: Can you stop the run occasionally? Can you drop into 501 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: coverage and all of a sudden, whether that's a tight 502 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: end or a running back. I'm not expecting Josh what 503 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: to drop into coverage a lot, but if you're on 504 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 1: the field, you better be able to do it if asked. 505 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: And I don't know if Xavier Thomas is he just 506 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: a pass Rusher, and I don't know. When you're talking 507 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 1: about numbers games, can you just have someone who does one. 508 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: Thing even needing the help. Last year we did not 509 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 3: see a lot of Thomas as a rookie. Has he 510 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 3: taken a significant enough jump going into year two where 511 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 3: you can see that impact and you can rely on 512 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 3: him in more situations in a game. I don't know. 513 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 1: Again, those are decisions that tough decisions. Here's a decision 514 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: that I found that I thought was an honest assessment 515 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: from the head coach. He was asked postgame about well 516 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: Johnson playing twenty two snaps. By the way, Will was 517 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: on the field, so he played every single preseason game, 518 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: something that we have not seen the first two years 519 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: when it comes to the rookies, Paris Johnson, junior, Marvin Harrison, 520 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,479 Speaker 1: Marvin played what was it three snaps last year and 521 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: that was more of a token appearance, just go through 522 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: the most of what a game day is like. But 523 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: JG did acknowledge postgame that quote, probably a mistake by 524 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: me not to play rookies because they need those game reps. 525 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: And yes there's a difference in preseason speed versus regular 526 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: season speed, but the learning curve. Can it be shrunken 527 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: a little bit for those rookies making the jump from 528 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: college to the pros by playing a handful of snaps 529 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: in every single game to understand what it takes not 530 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: only to play one game, but hey, this is your 531 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 1: job now, and this is what your week is going 532 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: to look like. It's practicing three days walk through game 533 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: and for rookies, get them in that flow, in that 534 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: rhythm right out of the gate. 535 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 3: Gannon always talks at the end of the year about 536 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 3: how US coaches they go and they self evaluate. It's 537 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 3: not just player evaluation, it's also looking at themselves what 538 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 3: can I do better? And for him specifically, how can 539 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 3: I set up my players and my coaching staff for success. 540 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 3: This is accountability. That's exactly what this is him saying, 541 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 3: in hindsight, I should have probably played my rookies more 542 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 3: than I did, and then he made that adjustment on 543 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 3: game plan. This week the Weekly TV Show, I sat 544 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 3: down with Gannon and Paul Calvic and we asked about 545 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 3: rookie development, in particular about getting more preseason SAPs, and 546 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: he was saying, you can tell that the game is 547 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 3: slowing down. Will Johnson in particular said he could tell 548 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 3: in preseason Game three that Johnson was not thinking as much. 549 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 3: It was more about going out there and playing those 550 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 3: preseason games with the rookies. Dbs in particular showed Gannon, Okay, 551 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 3: you know what, they're a little too handsy. We need 552 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 3: to work on that in practice. That's something that stood 553 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 3: out to him. You get in the flow of things. 554 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,479 Speaker 3: Communication is huge in practice. It's one thing for an 555 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 3: offensive lineman to go through a rep and then you 556 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 3: turn around in five yards behind you is offensive line 557 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 3: coach justin Fryan. He's telling you what you need to 558 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 3: work on, and he's talking through things with you. In 559 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 3: a game setting, you get through rep and you got 560 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 3: to completely move on and you got to be paying 561 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 3: attention to the play call and be ready to go 562 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 3: in a matter of seconds. That's the importance of having 563 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 3: these rookies play and getting used to the speed of 564 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 3: the game. That's why I think it's such a benefit. 565 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 3: And I really do appreciate the fact that Gandam did 566 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 3: that self evaluation and said I should probably play in 567 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 3: my rookies a little more, and then he did. 568 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: And it's not so much who they're up against, whether 569 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: it's first team, second team, third team. But you brought 570 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: it up. How is your technique? You're being taught a 571 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: specific way to play the position, whether offense or defense. 572 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: It might be different than what you were taught in college. 573 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: But here with the Arizona Cardinals, this is how well, 574 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: let's talk about the defensive backs corners. This is how 575 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: we want corners to play. Where they line up, where 576 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: their hands are, where their hips are positioned. You can 577 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: do that in practice, but now in a game setting. 578 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: To your point where you got to stop thinking about 579 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: that previous play and focus on this next snap. Can 580 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: you do that in practice? You get a rep and 581 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you're standing by yourself thinking 582 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: game day on the field. No, can you do it 583 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: again now? And I think that's where when we're talking 584 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: about rookies playing it's not so much again let's see 585 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: how they do against another color uniform. It's get them 586 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: on the field in a game setting and are their feet, 587 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: their eyes, their hands where they need to be And Okay, 588 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: now they've got a little bit of sense of what 589 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: they're doing, and now do we need to corrects or Hey, 590 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: you're showing what we're teaching you. You're ready for the 591 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: regular season. 592 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 3: These are gonna make mistakes even in the regular season. 593 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 3: I mean players in general. But Gannon understands that as 594 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: a rookie, you've got some nerves, right. He understands that 595 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 3: for the players, there's a lot writing on these evaluation opportunities, 596 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 3: and he takes it into consideration. I will say two 597 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 3: names that we cannot expect to see come to the 598 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 3: Cardinals as this quote unquote breaking news comes out while 599 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 3: we are recording. 600 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: Danny with breaking news. 601 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 3: It doesn't really affect us. But you know, we've we've 602 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 3: talked about hypothetically someone like a free agent and wide 603 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 3: receiver Amari Cooper. He is returning to the Raiders on 604 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 3: a one year deal. And big news for the Bengals, 605 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 3: Trey hendrickson their pass rusher has reached an agreement on 606 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 3: a fourteen million dollar raise for this year. 607 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,479 Speaker 1: Shocker, and earlier on Monday. 608 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 3: That just leads Micah Parsons drama. 609 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: Right, Terry McLaurin, he got a new deal. You got 610 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: a new deal earlier on Monday, So funny. 611 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 3: That must be the way to do it, right. You don't, 612 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 3: you don't do any training camp, no preseason, Just get 613 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 3: your money and go week one request. 614 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: The trade, and then a couple of weeks later, or 615 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: however long it takes, you've got a new contract. 616 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 3: Unless you're in Dallas. 617 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's gonna be an interesting one. But bottom 618 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,719 Speaker 1: line is most times, again it's posturing. It's how you 619 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: do it. It's the business side. Players in the locker 620 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: room know it, respect it. That's why you don't see 621 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: a lot of angst in locker rooms, especially during this 622 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: time of year. Now when it bleeds into the regular season. Now, 623 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're affecting whether you win or 624 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: you lose based off your absence. Then it becomes all right, 625 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: now you're affecting me as a player in that room 626 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: because cause I want to get into the postseason. I 627 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: want that post game, that postseason check. So yeah, that 628 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: was never in my and my wildest dreams that I 629 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: think any of those players that were talked about or 630 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: disgruntled or wanted a new deal, we're ever going to 631 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: move off from their current team. It's just you don't 632 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: you don't allow good players to walk out the door. 633 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 3: Yep, you're right, and that's how it has mostly played 634 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 3: out so far. But again, one team remains the outlier. 635 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: Cred that team, just that team enjoys that spotlight drama. Yes, 636 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: you're part of that soap opera, fra. 637 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 3: Now, hey now, not a main character, not a main character, 638 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 3: just in the background, an extra, an extra. 639 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: You are not an extra here on the. 640 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 3: Arizona car main character energy over here. 641 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: And there is no doubt in my mind that you 642 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: will make not just the initial fifty three, but you 643 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: will also make the final fifty three. 644 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 3: Hey now, thank you, Craig.
