Bill Jones, Savannah Humoler, and Mickey Spagnola, 0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:53.760 the star of the show wearing his Cowboys star This morning, 0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:54.640 I was gonna put. 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:55.280 My head like. 0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:58.400 Micah little Chili this morning. 0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:03.000 Degrees, Bill, you should have been over on the Ventura 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:06.720 Harbor last night at nine o'clock when I was doing 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:10.960 my sports guest and it was the temperature said sixty 0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:14.039 three degrees, but the wind chills said about forty three 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:14.960 degrees over there. 0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:15.840 Did you have a jacket on? 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:21.000 I had a sweater on. So yeah, for our live 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:23.640 shot last night on CBS eleven in Dallas. 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:25.520 For all I know is the other day when I 0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:27.440 took off on my bike ride in the morning and 0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.560 I took off and it was fifty eight degrees and 0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:34.959 I was just riding, and I'm going, is this heaven? 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:39.800 I took the line from the Field of Dreams and 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:41.360 I go, no, it's Oxnard. 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:48.040 Well, we've got much to talk about a ladas of 0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:50.960 mixed shots. Of course, the team is off today. We've 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:54.560 had the ramp up period. We put on the pads 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:58.600 tomorrow and we can't wait for that. But the breaking 0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:02.560 news yesterday was an injury that occurred early in practice 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.400 during a special team's drill. As Sam Williams. 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:09.720 Goes down, yes, and can I do like the newspapers do? 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:16.280 I was told by sources they told the Dallascowboys dot 0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:22.040 com that he had a torn ACL. They were hoping 0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:27.200 initially that it was just an MCL, but I was 0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:30.280 told after they kind of did their hand check or 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:33.840 whatever before he got the RRI, that they feared that 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:39.040 he tore his ACL, and sure enough tore his ACL 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:47.120 did damage the MCL also, so right away before they 0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:51.960 even put the pads on, they lose a very prominent 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:57.880 player for the season, which is, let's put it this way, 0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:04.040 I do this year before training camp, I write a column. 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:09.400 I started doing and calling it mister Indispensable. But I 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:12.320 decided a couple of years ago the Cowboys had too 0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:16.400 many indispensable players to pick one right, So I started 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:20.079 picking one guy that had to be relevant, that had 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:23.799 to step up and make a name for himself. Guess 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:25.800 who I picked Mister relevant was? 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:26.040 Sam? 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.560 Was Sam Williams? Yeah? Absolutely so. I don't know if 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:33.200 I was the kiss of death or what, but they 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:42.320 needed him to step up. They lose Armstrong, Drnce Armstrong 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:46.000 and free Agency, Dante Fowler Junior and free Agency, and 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.840 those were the guys that were into rotation really ahead 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:54.120 of Sam. And my thought is also that I know 0:03:54.320 --> 0:04:01.360 Mike Zimmer wants to use Micah Parsons more at and 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:05.080 so the next defensive end up had to be Sam Williams. 0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.800 It was time. This was his third year and it 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:11.040 was second round. Yeah, it was time for the second 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:15.440 round draft picks to start stepping up. And unfortunately, in 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:21.039 a darn special teams drill not even contact and he 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:25.400 goes down and they sort of knew right away. They 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:30.840 waited to get an m R. I report. And when 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:35.880 you guys were doing Jerry at the car wash, when 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.440 he was finished. I said, had you gotten an update 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:43.000 on Sam Williams. He goes, well, we're supposed to get 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:45.320 it around three o'clock and it was like three point 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:48.840 thirty and he said, I'm gonna probably get it here soon. 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.760 He said, but it doesn't look good. So they kind 0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:55.280 of knew. They were just kind of hoping. And then 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:58.080 I saw him over by the trainer's room. He was 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:02.359 on one of the golf carts and they were or 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:04.520 the cart. They took him away and they were taking 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:06.880 him back to his room. So he just got back 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:11.200 from his MRI. So, yeah, that's a that's a tough one. 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:13.680 And uh, you know, we could spend a lot of 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:17.000 time on his absence and what it means to this 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:20.960 team and who has to step up, but gosh, they 0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:23.440 just can't seem to get through that first week or so. 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:26.400 Last year it was three torn acls. 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.560 Yeah, I mean, you have to you come to expect 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:32.279 that it's gonna happen. He just you just hope it's 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:34.720 not you. If you're a player. You know, I can't 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.280 understand every morning you wake up, a player wakes up 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:40.080 and says a prayer of that this isn't my day, 0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.320 you know, because you see it around the league. There 0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:45.799 will there will be someone will keep a running tally 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.040 of how many a cls there are around the league. 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:49.479 It's just, uh. 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:55.400 Goes on with this Brad Sham Brad Sham's line, and 0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:57.800 I'm sure you he uses it every year we go 0:05:57.839 --> 0:06:00.599 to training camp, Uh, he said, we go to training 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:05.080 camp to find out who gets hurt. And it's just inevitable. Right, 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:13.080 So yeah, feel bad for him, just because this needed 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:16.719 to be his year to flourish his third year. He 0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:20.320 got here at ole Miss as sort of they looked 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:23.400 at him as a pass rush specialist, but a guy 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:27.800 that needed to play more football to become a complete 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:31.039 defensive end. And I thought this was going to be 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:36.279 the year for him to flourish, and four practices in 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:37.920 he's done for the season. 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:41.039 He's also such a key contributor on special teams, just 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.279 the amount of work that he put in last season 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.880 and some big plays that he had. It's a tough 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:48.200 loss in that area as well. But I mean, when 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:50.680 you're looking at the depth of this position, that's what 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.200 is a little rocky right now. When do you guys 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:53.880 think they're. 0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.560 Yep, that's right. One of the notes is we were 0:06:57.080 --> 0:07:00.840 getting ready and when Mickey talks about the Karwa, what 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:06.279 that is is on one day during training camp with Jerry, 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.840 and then we'll do it again with Dak later this week, 0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:13.080 probably on Thursday. I think all the TV stations get 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:18.000 their opportunity to one by one to seven to ten 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.239 minute or in the case of Mike Deucy, a fifteen 0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:27.960 minute interview in Sam Gannon with Jerry shot take well, 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:29.640 pull back the curtain. 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:30.000 Okay. 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:32.760 So Channel four, which is Mike Deucy and Sam Gannon, 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:36.240 they go first, Okay, everyone else just has one reporter here. 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.920 Well with Deucey and Sam. Okay, they each have to 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:44.080 ask a certain amount of questions. And so Mike's first 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:48.280 question to Jerry, and there's eight other TV stations waiting 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:51.040 in line. Jerry's going to do these one on ones 0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:54.440 with eight or nine TV stations that are here at camp. 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.160 It's the first question that Ducy asked. He was about 0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:01.640 Sam Williams. Of course they didn't have the results yet, 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:03.679 but just how much he means to the team. And 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:07.119 Jerry went four minutes on the answer, and we get 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:10.200 we get like five or six minutes is what we're 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.600 supposed to get on these, and so David Bruce E 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:16.560 b R. He's got the stopwatch on it, and it's 0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:19.200 like he just re zeroed it after this Sam Williams one. 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:22.400 So but then you've got Mike asking a question, and 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:24.680 Sam's got to ask a question. And then if Jerry 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:26.680 is going to go two minutes on each one, all 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:27.680 of a sudden you're up to ten. 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:31.640 Well, see, I got there after just after they started, 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.640 and I was it was curious that nobody else asked 0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:38.840 about Sam Williams, I said, And then after you said that, 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:41.120 it's like, well, they said all he needed to say 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:41.880 about Sam. 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.240 Williams, and we didn't have it. Channel four only had it, 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:47.000 and so we just went with it. And it was 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.120 also incomplete at that time, right, And that's the thing 0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:53.160 is you're on you have to be with in those situations. 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:57.880 You have to be really strategic on your questions with Jerry, 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:02.520 because if you stumble and say, oh, what a great 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:06.480 day it is here in Oxnard. Jerry, to his credit, 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.680 because he doesn't have a stopwatch on him, he's just talking. 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:12.360 You know, he'll go into a story about al Davis 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:15.000 that takes four minutes, and now you only have two 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.320 minutes left and you've got six more questions to ask. 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:22.400 But anyway, prior to that, we were talking about Sam 0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:27.360 Williams and Jerry was saying that, you know, he has 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:31.320 some Micah Parsons type qualities about him as far as 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.400 it traits, as far as his athleticism and so forth, 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.439 and I said, yeah, if you just go look at 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:41.319 his stats in the limited playing time that he had, 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:46.560 his sacks per snap in his first two years in 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:47.440 the league eight. 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:47.760 And a half. 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:50.160 I think I did the numbers on it last night. 0:09:50.240 --> 0:09:52.880 It's eight and a half sacks and I think around 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:57.640 five hundred and seventy six snaps. That is a sack 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:00.560 every sixty seven snaps his career. 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:00.880 Right. 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:05.600 Well, if you look at Micah's sack rate over his snaps, 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:09.600 it's a sack every sixty six snaps in his career, 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:10.880 very similar numbers. 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:11.000 Then. 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:14.840 Now, the difference is being a pass rush specialist. Sam 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:18.600 Williams was usually only in on pass rush situations while 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.679 Micah is in on every snap and so that's you 0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:25.680 can't really take that literally, but it does show the 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:29.360 potential that Sam Williams has and how big a loss 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:29.640 it is. 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.680 Well, he finished last year third on the team in 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:36.920 sacks with four and a half. Obviously, Micah led with 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:42.520 the fourteen, Dorren Somstrong had seven and a half. Dante 0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:46.760 Fowler was right behind Williams with four, Lawrence with four, 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:51.560 so he had four and a half sacks already three 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:55.320 hundred snaps roughly. So yeah, do the math on it. 0:10:55.320 --> 0:11:00.600 It's it's like seven sack every seven snapna apps right, 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:09.640 if my math is correct, way off seven seven seven, yeah, yeah, 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:17.040 seventy So gosh, it's just it would be a huge loss. Yes, 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:20.200 it was every seven. I had seven on there, and 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:25.640 it's like I forgot the zero. But yeah, and what 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:29.560 what Savannah was pointing out, if you remember a guy 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:33.960 that's uh six four two fifty five, they were using 0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:35.800 him as a gunner on the mont. 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.600 He's Hollywood Henderson going down as a gunner or extra 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.880 manly early in his career was a gunner. 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.679 For the He just he just needed to remember that 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.120 you can't get the punt return. 0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:49.600 He might he might save you, he might save you 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:55.240 fifteen yards, but I might also uh give up fifteen. 0:11:55.000 --> 0:12:00.360 Or whatever a couple of times, Familliam. So let's let's 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:04.760 go this way. So you lose him, say Michael Parsons 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:08.839 at linebacker, so you got DeMarcus Lawrence and then well 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:11.280 where do they go after that? And if you look 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.720 at the depth chart, to me, it's Marshawn Neeland. 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:19.480 Now, Marshaw Kneeland from day one out here in this 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:22.480 ramp up period. I mean, he's up there with the 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:27.240 ones a lot and he's impressive out here. And Mike 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.439 McCarthy talked about him in his press conference yesterday, his maturity, 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:35.640 Marshaw kneelan he's going to have a real opportunity now 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:37.520 to get a lot of playing time this year in 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:38.320 his rookie season. 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:42.840 And don't try to diminish his ability because he went 0:12:42.920 --> 0:12:49.160 to Western Michigan. This guy can play. I talked to 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:53.160 Greg greg Ellis about him for quite a bit and 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.800 he's just in love with the guy. He said, his 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:59.160 motor runs. He said, he plays every play like the 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:03.600 last play that he'll ever play in his life. They 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:08.120 love his mowner. I was watching when the uh SO 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:13.559 they went Levanon leven yesterday and the intensity was picking up. 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:17.880 His pass rush was impactful. You know, they can't sack 0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:20.720 the quarterback, can't hit the quarterback, but he was pushing 0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:25.800 people into the quarterback. Uh So he's got to he's 0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:28.720 got to play now. He's got to step up because. 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.120 I think he was gonna play anyway even without this injury. 0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:32.880 He was going to play a lot, and now they 0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:34.160 needing to. 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:37.280 Play a lot because the rest of the guy, godness, 0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:44.680 there's no really experience at that position. Uh after after 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:46.520 Sam Williams, I. 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:48.280 Did get to chat with them for a little bit 0:13:48.280 --> 0:13:49.840 the other day and I asked him kind of where 0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:52.840 his headspace was at, given this as his first NFL camp, 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:56.880 and he kind of credited to Marcus Lawrence and learning 0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:59.600 from him as a veteran, and just you know, his 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:03.120 mind sat right now. He seemed very calm, and he 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:07.120 seemed very focused. So that's what I appreciated about Kneeland. 0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:09.720 He's here to put in the work, but he's really 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.160 looking up to DeMarcus Lawrence right now to learn that 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:15.920 skill set. So you know, I think there's a lot 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:17.679 of big things we're going to see out of him, 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:19.520 but it's it's. 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:20.000 The step up. 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:23.080 And I think that when they drafted him, it was 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:26.120 with the idea we'll see how much longer DeMarcus plays 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:29.240 in his career. But he's the he was the heir 0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:33.760 apparent to DeMarcus Lawrence as a left base defensive end right, 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:36.720 but he has the ability to play all along the 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:41.120 defensive line, and they'll they flip DeMarcus and whoever's the 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:44.200 other defensive end anyway. 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:45.280 But strong side right and. 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:51.680 So but but Niland, I mean, it's a I'm when 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:55.040 they give him number ninety four, it raises my eyebrows 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:59.120 right off the bat rcause that's a significant number to 0:14:59.160 --> 0:14:59.800 give a player. 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:04.479 And uh tough guy too, by the way, because in 0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:07.080 in Uh, I believe it was the rookie mini camp. 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:13.240 I've noticed that the second day of the camp he 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:16.640 wasn't out there. And then when they went to OTA's 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:20.840 when they weren't in helmets, he wasn't out there. And 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:23.800 so I was like, uh, I heard you. You had 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:27.640 to go see the doctor after that first practice, and 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:30.720 he goes, yeah, I had to get my nose realigned. 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:33.200 He goes, it was an accidental hit to my nose. 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:36.440 And he goes, he goes, I could have played, but 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:39.000 they didn't want me out there doing any drills without 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:39.680 my helmet on. 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:44.040 Right away, he sounds like a soccer player. Well, I 0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:45.400 mean a hockey player. 0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:52.280 Yeah, abandon on it. There's a little toughness to him. 0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:55.880 Also, by the way, well, Mickey and I got to 0:15:56.040 --> 0:16:00.880 talk to Mazzy Smith yesterday for a little bit after practice, 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:03.440 and Micky, what did you think? 0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:09.760 Well, two things about Mazi so far. Number One, he's 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:13.680 another guy they need to flourish, no doubt, can't have 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:19.680 any season like he had last year, playing four snaps 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:23.960 in a playoff game. So he was one that I 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:28.000 was like, Okay, Well a couple things. Number one, it 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:33.000 appears and I think it's gracious for us to say 0:16:33.360 --> 0:16:35.480 he was two ninety last year, because I don't think 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.120 he was over two ninety after they drafted him at 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:41.320 three twenty eight for some reason, and it's a mystery 0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:45.240 to everybody. I asked why he lost all that weight. Well, 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:49.120 it appears now he's back over three hundred. He said. 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:55.040 He's probably an ideal playing right would be around three 0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:57.600 ten three point fifteen. Well, that's what you want for 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:00.240 a nose tackle, right, a guy that you want to 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:02.560 be a run stuffer to hold up things so the 0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:06.480 linebackers can clean up uh in the running game. So 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:11.080 two things. The day before or it was two days before, 0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:13.320 at the end of practice, he got in a little 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:18.960 skirmish and I was like, God, bless him, that's that. Yeah, 0:17:20.320 --> 0:17:23.760 And it was like, there, he's got some red blood 0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:28.879 in his veins. There's some fire. Finally, yes, exactly. And 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:32.879 then the other day and you know, when we talked 0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:35.399 to him, that was the first time he'd spoken, because 0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:37.439 he looked like he was going to talk the day before, 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:40.239 and then he got in a one on one and 0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:43.320 he didn't want to talk to anybody else. Uh So, 0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:46.679 at least he admitted what his playing weight was gonna be. 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:50.159 And he said that They asked him about his goals 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:52.720 for this year and he said, it's a clean slate, 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:55.440 and I'm going it's a good thing. The slates clean, 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:58.359 you know, start from scratch. But they need him to 0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:04.880 be a player because after that, you know, they drafted, 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:11.080 uh I keep forgetting the guy's first name, Rogers just 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:15.800 seventh rounder out of seventh round. And then they've got 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:20.760 Savannahs Guy Denzel Dackson or Dackson Denzel. 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:25.679 Denzel Dockson, Yes, yes, from the Bahamas are international player. 0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:29.920 A rookie free agent and Carl Davis and Carl Davis but. 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.040 Veteran guy who is here they picked up in November 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:36.960 last year. He's a great teammate, he's a great team guy, 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:41.600 veteran guy, but he's not a guy that uh will 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:44.040 be getting a lot of I mean, he'll get he'll 0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:46.880 be in a rotation, right, he makes the team whatever. 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:52.320 But but yeah, it's a this is what this is 0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:57.480 what happens when you And this is the whole reason 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:01.440 why there's so much consternation right now on the big 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:05.000 contracts that are due with CD and with Dak and 0:19:05.040 --> 0:19:08.760 then next year with Micah is you have to have 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:12.399 players who fit under this salary cap, and you have 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:15.120 to have young players that step up. And that's why 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:18.239 how devastating it is to have an injury to a 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:22.160 young player like Sam Williams yesterday, because he at least 0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:24.200 had a couple of years of experience. And now you're 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:26.600 leaning on guys who may have been on the squad, 0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:29.240 the practice squad or whatever the last couple of years 0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:33.000 who they see potential, but they haven't done it before 0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:36.120 in this league. But it was not only on the edge, 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.920 but also you look at defensive tackle. They lost Jonathan 0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:43.400 Hankins in free agency, went to Seattle. Nevill Gallimore's now 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:48.720 in Miami, and they weren't able to do anything in 0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:51.560 free agency. It wasn't that they didn't want to. They 0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:55.680 couldn't because of they're financially strapped because of the money 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:58.720 that they got to pay to I mean, a year 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:01.280 from now, they could have the the highest paid quarterback, 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.320 the highest paid wide receiver, and the highest paid defensive 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:06.120 player in the league, which roster. 0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:08.440 No other team has. Right by the way, no other 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:11.240 team has three of those. So that's why when you 0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:15.040 invest the first round pick on Mozzi, and even though 0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:17.679 it was only the twenty sixth pick in the first round, 0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:20.639 the guy's got to stepped up. And if everybody wants 0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:24.760 to understand what maybe the teammates think of him, just 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:29.960 go find Micah Parson's interview from the second day of 0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:33.480 training camp. Someone asked him what do you think that 0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:37.679 Mozzi can be? And he goes, it's not what I 0:20:37.760 --> 0:20:41.159 think he can be. He has to be. It's not 0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:43.720 like we got to sit there and hope he can 0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:46.600 do this and this. He needs to do it now. 0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:51.359 And truer words were never spoken. And he talked about 0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:54.639 how he's keeping an eye on him he's making sure 0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:57.960 he's doing what he's supposed to do. Bring him along 0:20:58.160 --> 0:21:02.960 getting conditioned because Stall the off season recovering from a 0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:07.760 shoulder surgery. All right, the first practice he had, that's 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:08.960 probably a good time of taker. 0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:12.000 Yeah, this is the time to take a break. And 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:14.720 because of the background noise here and we'll be back 0:21:14.720 --> 0:21:16.240 at talk snard to just a moment. 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:20.840 Miller Lite is brewed with great taste and only great tape. 0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:23.320 The Miller Brewing Company would like to issue a correction. 0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:26.040 Miller Lite is brewed to be less feeling.
