1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Good even guys, Matt, how are you doing great? How

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: are y'all doing well? Do you want us to just

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: fire away or did you sort of have an idea

4
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: of wanting to just take us through the day from

5
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: your perspectives? Like what are your comfortable what are you

6
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: more comfortable with? However you want to handle it, Mike,

7
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're armed and ready, so okay. Um, well,

8
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: so I'll just start with a question when like when

9
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: it comes to value, which I think we talk about

10
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: a lot in New England. You know, Um, what is

11
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: your response to those who might say with Cole and

12
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 1: Tae kwon, just the idea of um, like were they overdrafted?

13
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: You know, could you have waited and maybe got them later? Yeah?

14
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: I mean I think that's real easy for people to

15
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: say nobody knows, but the people are gonna the teams

16
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: are gonna do behind you. Uh you know when you

17
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: come back up, Um, you don't want to miss out

18
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: on a player? Uh? You know, I think it's very easy.

19
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: Sometimes you hear you know why why and not just

20
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: in football? Why didn't they trade for this guy? You know,

21
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: this team gave a second. Why didn't we give a second? Um?

22
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: You know if they'd just given it, Well, if the

23
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: other team seconds better than your second, then you're having

24
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: to give up a one. So you know, it's it's

25
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: not all so cut and dry with uh you know

26
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: where you think, Um, a guy's gonna go, And you

27
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: got to look at what the rest of the board

28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: is telling you. And if you value a player high enough,

29
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: then you want that player to be a part of

30
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: your team. And that's certainly how we feel about Cole.

31
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: We're really excited to have coal board and you want

32
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: to talk about value. The guy started at three positions

33
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: on the offensive line. I think it's kind of you know,

34
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: easy to pigeonhole him as a guard. He does a lot.

35
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: This guy is really tough, he's really smart. You know,

36
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: he's six, you know, almost six five, three hundred pounds

37
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: and runs you know, sub five seconds in the forty.

38
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: There's not a lot of humans out there who are

39
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: doing that. Um, you know, bench two twenty five thirty

40
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: one times. This is a really big, strong, tough, athletic guy.

41
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: If you value toughness, which we do, you know you

42
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: value guys like Cole Strange. All right, yes, question to me,

43
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: Bob Socie phobe Mark daniels Hi, Matt, thanks for your time, certainly, Bob.

44
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,119
Speaker 1: It's just to pick up on your description of Cole

45
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: one of the questions that I had some of the

46
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: last night regarding versatilities. Most of people talk about and

47
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: write about him as a guard center, given his length

48
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: and his athleticism. You mean, how much potential is there

49
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,839
Speaker 1: if there is any to move outside at some point

50
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: in his career. Could you foresee at least giving him

51
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 1: a look down the road if not this season, Yeah,

52
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: we'll see how it plays out. You know, he's gonna

53
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: have to come in here and compete, and it's a

54
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: challenge for these guys just to learn one spot. So

55
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: let's just, you know, get him in here and get

56
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: him a chance, give him a chance to get his

57
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: feet wet, and see how he goes from there. Just

58
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 1: a quick question about Taikon as well. A lot of

59
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: times when people talk about the Patriots and times they

60
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: talk about the three com drill, and here's a guy

61
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,839
Speaker 1: with exceptional speed, obviously in the forty with a trait

62
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: like that that's so exceptional. Does that cause you to

63
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: kind of rethink some of those other measurables. It means

64
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: that maybe or is you look at every player differently

65
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: and say this is how he'll fit with us down

66
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: on the road. So to speed, we take it all

67
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: in and we consider it all. Number one thing is

68
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: you got to consider what the player does and how

69
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: the player is going to help you. You want to

70
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: get faster, just like if you want to get tougher,

71
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: you better get tough guys. You want to get faster,

72
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: you better get fast guys. And I don't know how

73
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: many guys out there are faster than Taikwon. So we're

74
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: really decided to be able to add him and his

75
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: explosive playmaking. He is fast, so you know, to be

76
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: able to get some toughness and some athleticism on the

77
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: first night. And you know, I think these other two guys,

78
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: Tae Kwon and Marcus Jones, they're certainly tough guys too,

79
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: but you know at their positions, at the skill positions,

80
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: they are fast. I appreciate it. Thank you, Thanks Bob.

81
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: The next question Mark Daniels, followed by Andrew killing him man.

82
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: Thanks for doing this um with Tae Kwon? What did

83
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: you guys learn about him throughout the draft process that

84
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: made you feel comfortable with taking him at fifty fiftieth overall,

85
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: and just sort of how did he separate himself from

86
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: the other receivers over point. Yeah, you know, we've been

87
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: working on on these guys for a long time, uh,

88
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: you know, from the the area scouts. Uh, you know,

89
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: Alex Brooks is in uh Texas and we got two

90
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: great UM players from the state of Texas. He certainly,

91
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: you know, was on top of these guys early. You know,

92
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: Son knew a lot about him with our familiarity with

93
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 1: both the Baylor and the you know, Houston programs, and

94
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: then just to get a comfort level with um, you

95
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: know Tai kwon at the All Star Game. Uh you know,

96
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: really you know, get to know him as a person

97
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: and really start to dig on just his football intelligence.

98
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: You know. It was it was really beneficial, um the

99
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: time that we were able to spend with him and

100
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: see all the things that you know, he has the

101
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: potential to do to help our team, especially and you're

102
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: killing handfall by Zach Cox. Hey man, thanks for taking

103
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: the time here tonight. I wanted to ask you about

104
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: Typewon again. He seemed, at least physically to be a

105
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: departure from the prototype. You guys have followed for a

106
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: long time at receiver. So I'm wondering either what made

107
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: Taypewon individually worthy of being an exception, or what about

108
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: your prototype might have changed where you're valuing things a

109
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: little bit differently that position. Yeah, I don't exactly know

110
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: what the prototype is. I haven't been here that long,

111
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: but i'd say a guy, you know, two guys who

112
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: played together both played the position a little bit differently.

113
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: But I don't think Ranny Moss really looks a whole

114
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: lot like Wes Welker um, you know. But they're both

115
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: good players, and they both have, uh, you know, really

116
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: good skill sets, and so we really just got to

117
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: focus on the skill set and how it's gonna apply

118
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: to what we want to do offensively at that position.

119
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: And uh, yeah, he's he's a little bit longer, m

120
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: a little bit leaner, but with his speed he can

121
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: certainly open open some things up for us offensively. Thanks man,

122
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: Thanks question, Zach Cox fall away of a bizarre Hey, Matt,

123
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: thanks again for doing this. I want to ask you

124
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: about Marcus. He's a guy who kind of wore a

125
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: lot of hats at Houston Plane inside outside punt return,

126
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: kick return, even some offense. How do you see him

127
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: kind of fitting into to what you guys like to do.

128
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: It goes to a little bit of you know what

129
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: I was talking about with Cole and where he was

130
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: able to start at center guard tackle in his college

131
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: career and and Marcus has done even more you could say,

132
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: since he's he's been on both sides of the ball. Uh,

133
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, primarily a corner um you know inside outside

134
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: uh to you know with even with his playmaking ability

135
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: trying to get the ball in his hands. Uh, you

136
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: know you're talking about a team in Houston. Um that's

137
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: you know, been coach Holker since had had really good

138
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: teams there and been able to put up a lot

139
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: of points. And this guy was dynamic enough that they

140
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: take one of their best players on defense and put

141
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: them on offense and then they put them back there

142
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: on punt returns and kick returns. So really excited, you

143
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: know to have two picks here tonight and add speed

144
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: and add speed to really uh you know, all three

145
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: phases of the team. Um, you know, Tayklon on offense

146
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: and then Marcus on defense and special cheat defense and

147
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: special teams. And you know we'll see what Uh, what

148
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: Taikon can contribute on fourth down as well? Sure, especially

149
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: having bisar felled by Greg Bdard, Hey man, thanks for

150
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: doing this. I wanted to ask you about Taikwon as well.

151
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: And obviously we know he's got the speed and ability

152
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: to get down the field, but what do you see

153
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: from him at the top of the route and through

154
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: the break point and his technique in that ban Yeah,

155
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: a good question, and I think it even starts before

156
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: that with his release. Uh. You know, this isn't just

157
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: a linear guy. You see him really be able to

158
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: get off the line. Uh. And you know, for as

159
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: fast as he is, I'm sure you guys are all

160
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: grind and film on Taikwon and Marcus um you know,

161
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: to be able to see him get in the in

162
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: the red zone uh and and do some things. And

163
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 1: it's not just speed, it's you know, six two ability

164
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: to you know, get get up and really plucked the

165
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 1: ball out of the air. So there's gonna be a

166
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: lot of different things that he's going to be able

167
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: to do to help, especially Greg Badar fall Lay Matthew Fairburn,

168
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: hey man, Uh, I just wanted to sort of ask

169
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: you just in general, you know, how has the this

170
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: is your first time in this role. How has the

171
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: last couple of days gone for you? How much of

172
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: a departure was your role and maybe the uh, you know,

173
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: your input on the process. How much different was it

174
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: than last year? Just you know, tell us about the

175
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: past couple of days. Yeah, Greg, I'd say, you know,

176
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: last year was definitely new. This year is is very

177
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: similar to what last year was. Uh, you know, working

178
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: with with Dave and Elliot last year, uh, and and

179
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: this year working with Elliot Wolf and Cam williams um

180
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: here this year. So it hasn't been a huge departure

181
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: from from what it was last year, which you know

182
00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: that that was a big departure from what it was

183
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: that or before sitting in my basement, Uh, you know,

184
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 1: trying to trying to follow along with what everything was

185
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: kind of looks like, uh I was, I was right

186
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: where you are right now. So just a quick follow

187
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: up on that. I mean, it seems like from the

188
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: way you're talking about these guys, you obviously have a

189
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: lot of conviction about these players. Would you say that

190
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: you you had a lot of input that Bill Um,

191
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: you know, the process was collaborative as far as reaching

192
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: a consensus on these picks. That's the word, Greg, It's collaborative. Uh.

193
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: You know we've been putting in a lot of hours,

194
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: you know, as as a large group, dwindling that down

195
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 1: to a smaller group. UM, but it's it's a group

196
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: and we're all working together trying to you know, see

197
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: you know the differences, respect each other's differences. Uh, if

198
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: those differences are really gonna hinder the player from having

199
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: a role on our team. Um. And it's it's been

200
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: great to uh, you know, have have players where we're

201
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: we're on a consensus opinion and you know, we're just

202
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: all these guys are gonna have to come in here

203
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 1: and work. And it's a big transition for anybody, you know,

204
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: coming into a new program, coming into our program, whether

205
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: that's a free agent, um, but especially here these rookies

206
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: as they're becoming professionals. So you know, we're really excited

207
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,839
Speaker 1: to have these three guys and they're gonna have to

208
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: get get to work. And now it's up to them.

209
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: You know, we're going to give them the resources and

210
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: and and the coaching and the tutelage and and everything

211
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: we can do to put them in position. But it's

212
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: really going to be up to them to kind of

213
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 1: make or break their careers. Thank you. It looks like

214
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: two final questions. We'll go Matthew Fairburn and Jim mcpratt. Hey,

215
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: matt um first three picks here, No linebacker just yet.

216
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 1: I know you have a ton of picks left here

217
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: on day three, but I'm curious if you could kind

218
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: of assess the current group of linebackers that you do

219
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: have on the roster. I know you've invested some picks

220
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: in recent years, and just what you think of that

221
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: group as a whole as it stands. Yeah, I'm really

222
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: excited about that group. Um, you know, excited to see

223
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: camergrown was able to get on on the field a

224
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: little bit last year. Excited to see him being an

225
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: expanded role. He's kind of an additional draft pick. Uh.

226
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: You know, you can kind of put him along there

227
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: with the three guys that we've been able to add

228
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: here today, along with some of the other guys from

229
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: last year, and uh that that all kind of counts to,

230
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: you know, getting younger, getting faster, you know, being a

231
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: tough team. Uh. So, I you know, being able to

232
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 1: add mac Wilson. Uh, you know, I know a lot

233
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 1: was going on and free agency and uh, you know,

234
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: it was a trade and not a signing, but I

235
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: think that was a really important part of adding some

236
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: depth to the linebacking UH Corps, along with being able

237
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 1: to get Jawan Bentley back, you know, really excited to

238
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: have him and his experience as well. So, uh, you know,

239
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: I think we've got a lot of names there and

240
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: a lot of experience and mix in some youth, so

241
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 1: I think it's a good group. Thanks, Matt, And the

242
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: last question me Jim McBride. Hey, Matt, thanks for taking

243
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: the time, appreciate it. I just wanted to ask you

244
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: about the process on day three and how much different

245
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: is that for you guys where you have so many

246
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: picks but it's in such a crammed amount of time,

247
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 1: Like how quickly does the process go? Tomorrow we'll get

248
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: organized and we're gonna have to be ready to go.

249
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 1: I think we're maybe the fifteenth pick tomorrow and a

250
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: couple others right there in succession, you know, not too

251
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: far behind. So the clock's moving with five minutes in between,

252
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: and you really got to be prepared for trades, which

253
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: I think we did a great job tonight of trying

254
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: to be on top of those things with everybody in

255
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: the room working, contacting different teams and fielding the calls

256
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: that teams were putting out to us. So it's it's

257
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: really with the clock at five minutes. You got to

258
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,719
Speaker 1: be really organized. You gotta take, you know, good hard

259
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: look at the board and see where you can best

260
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: help your team. But it'll move quickly for sure here

261
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: in the fourth round. Thanks man,
