Was a popular refrain. 21 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 5: Don't tell the Arizona Cardinals they didn't draft a couple 22 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,199 Speaker 5: of potential stars at number sixteen, at number forty seven, 23 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 5: and maybe this is a hot take, but maybe a 24 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 5: couple of potential starters in round four, in round six, 25 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 5: and we're here to talk about it and talk with 26 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 5: the Assistant GM Dave Sears tonight on the Big Red 27 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 5: Rage presented by Santan ford In Gilbert, Paul Calvici, here, 28 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 5: Ron Wolfley.

I am jacked up? Thanks for asking, Paul. 31 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: I am jacked up right now because of the Arizona 32 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: Cardinals picks, because of the draft, and because I think 33 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: they're going to be much better this year than a 34 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: lot of people think. 35 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 5: Well, if we don't have time for the greetings and 36 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 5: the salutations, Okay, it's our favorite time of year. Our 37 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 5: favorite hashtag is let the Rooks cook. And in three 38 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 5: drafts now Chef Monty has twenty eight picks in three years, 39 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 5: and right now every one of them is still on 40 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 5: the roster. And before we get into the first round 41 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 5: pick and beyond, before we hear from Dave Sears, I 42 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 5: want to ask you just the competition level, what is 43 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 5: that going to do? For Cardinals camp. Look at the 44 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 5: depth chart. Look at how much deeper it is. Because 45 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 5: if there is one way to motivate in the NFL 46 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 5: and you played ten years, you tell me it's job security. 47 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 5: And there're gonna be some really good dudes who don't 48 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 5: end up on the final fifty three this year. 49 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Pauli, there's no doubt about it. You know, 50 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: once again, one's a point, two's a trend, three's a pattern. 51 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: You look at the last two drafts from the Arizona 52 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: Cardinals that Manti ausin Fort and the staff of the 53 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals have picked. One's a point, two's a trend. 54 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: Three's a pattern. Man. There are fourteen guys on this 55 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: roster that are only two years into the league that 56 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: are either starters for the Arizona Cardinals or in a 57 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: heavy rotation getting reps on a game day. Because of that, 58 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: paul it's amazing. If the Arizona Cardinals nailed Draft number 59 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: three the way that I think they have, it's going 60 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: to be a pattern now for the Arizona Cardinals. And 61 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: because of that draft that happened three years ago. Because 62 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: of that, Pauli, and now the draft that happened last year, 63 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: and then this year's draft. You put those three together, 64 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: the competition level for the Arizona Cardinals in all three phases, offensively, defensively, 65 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: and in transition has skyrocketed. To your point, Paul, and. 66 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 5: I don't know if this is a point or a 67 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 5: pattern or a trend or whatever you call it. We'll 68 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 5: put in the fifteen drafts before monti ascin fort the 69 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 5: Arizona Cardinals in the first two rounds drafted a total 70 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 5: of two defensive linemen and two defensive linemen. That's over 71 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 5: fifteen drafts in the first two rounds. We're talking DJ Jumpries, 72 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 5: Johnathan Cooper, We're talking Robert KIMDCI, Dan Williams. They have 73 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 5: already taken three three first round offensive or defensive lineman 74 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 5: through three drafts, including most recently Walter Nolan at number sixteen. 75 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 5: And here's MANIASA. Ford on what separated Walt from the 76 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 5: rest of the pack. 77 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 6: Disruption And you know, I think you know, we've talked 78 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 6: about it a lot. You know, we wanted to get 79 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 6: more have a more disruptive defensive unit. We think we've 80 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 6: added players that can help us do that. And again, 81 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 6: like when we find a players that can affect the 82 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 6: middle of the pocket. It puts a lot of stress 83 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 6: on the offense. And so Walter is another guy that 84 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 6: we think can do that, can help us do that, 85 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 6: and we're really excited to add him to our team. 86 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 5: Doesn't even turn twenty two until October. Walter Nolan first 87 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 5: Team All American, number one high school recruit. What else 88 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 5: stands about out about the ole Miss All American? 89 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, for me, once again, the first question 90 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: I have Paul, he is where you're gonna play him? 91 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: Where you're gonna play Walter Nolan right now? Just like 92 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: Darius Robinson. Darius Robinson, we were talking about this last year. 93 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: He could play anywhere across the front. You could literally 94 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: line him up on the center, or you could have 95 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: him stand out in a wide nine. You could literally 96 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: have him do that, and I think that he would 97 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: be able to hold up, especially based on the down 98 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: and distance. I think Walter Nolan is in the exact 99 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,679 Speaker 1: same category as Darius Robinson. I think he's a little 100 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: quicker on that first step. I think he's got an 101 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: excellent first step, very explosive. Yet at the same time, 102 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: where Walter Nolan is going to play and where Darius 103 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: Robinson is going to play. That's going to be interesting 104 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: because they could be anywhere across the front. 105 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 5: Paul, you know what, note to self. We're gonna ask 106 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 5: Dave Sears about that coming up the assistant GM right now, 107 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 5: let's hear from Adrian Wilson, Cardinals cover too. Yes, the 108 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 5: former Cardinals legend who has spent the last decade in 109 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 5: an NFL front office. And here was his comp for 110 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 5: Walter Nolan. 111 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 7: It reminds me so much a docket. You know, Darnelle 112 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 7: was an undersized three technique. You know, he was two 113 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 7: ninety two ninety five, you know, at best. So you know, 114 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 7: having a guy that was quick, that could penetrate, that 115 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 7: can affect the interior of the pocket like it just 116 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 7: helps your outside rushers out so much like you're their 117 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 7: best friend because you're able to get penetration from the 118 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 7: inside to get that quarterback off the spot. 119 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 5: And Doc was nasty. 120 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 7: He was real nasty. 121 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 5: And what's interesting is and we had a chance to 122 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 5: talk to Walter Nolan one on one. He's a soft spoken, 123 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 5: quiet guy, but he also admits he flips the switch 124 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 5: on game day. He is a really hyper competitive dude. 125 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 5: On game day and Wolf, you know, we sort of 126 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 5: made the joke who won the NFL Draft. The media 127 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 5: always likes to pick teams. We picked a person. Nick 128 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 5: Rowlis won the NFL draft. You know, he first five 129 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 5: picks on defensive players. And what happens to this Cardinals defense? 130 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 5: If they can truly only rush four instead of having 131 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 5: this scheme it up, we're just better than you upfront. 132 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 5: I mean that just changes the defense, doesn't it. 133 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: It just changes everything, Bully. I mean, it's exactly what 134 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: you want. But you want the best of both worlds. 135 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: If we can still scheme it up, that's great too 136 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: from time to time. You just don't want to have 137 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: to depend on it to get pressure. If you can 138 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: rush for and drop seven, as you know, Baly, this 139 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: is huge for any defensive coordinator and any defensive You 140 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: can rush forward, get pressure on that quarterback and drop seven, 141 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: you got a huge advantage right now. What I loved 142 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: about this draft the first four picks, in particular, defensive tackle, 143 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: an interior three technique, then a corner, then an outside 144 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: edge guy in Jordan Birch, and then Cody Simon an 145 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: inside linebacker. Four different positions on different levels and man, 146 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: this is what's got me so excited. I think the 147 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: defensive line of scrimmage has improved so much. And I'm 148 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: not talking about just these drafts because you know, PAULI, 149 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: a rookie's got to prove it. He's got a long way. Yeah, 150 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: you gotta climb that hill and you've got to prove 151 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: that you can actually do it. But right now, looking 152 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage defensively and the names that 153 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: they already have on the line of scrimmage, this is 154 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: this is going to be the most competitive room on 155 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: the entire team. 156 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 5: So to your point about Daris Robinson and Walter Nolan, 157 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 5: the third now Drew stan RedSea report former Cardinals quarterback, 158 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 5: said you know what, I take either one of those 159 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 5: guys or both and put him at the three technique 160 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 5: on the outside shoulder of the guard. He said, that's 161 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 5: where I think they're going to be the biggest headache, 162 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 5: cause the most problems. It's most difficult for an offense 163 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 5: to give help and slide over some extra attention that way. 164 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 5: And I kept talking about, you know, rushing the passer 165 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 5: with four and then Drew said, no, it goes beyond that. 166 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 8: The Super Bowl ask Patrick Mahomes what that feels like. 167 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 8: They don't have four rush and seven are now in coverage, 168 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 8: and you can change coverage right, You can drop safeties in, 169 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 8: you can insert and do different stuff. It gives it 170 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 8: an extreme advantage to the defense when you don't have 171 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 8: to bring more guys to the party than you need. 172 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 8: As a true quarterback, your eyes have to be on 173 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 8: that second and third level. You can't watch the rush 174 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 8: and play in this league. You can be the greatest 175 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 8: quarterback of all time. And if you consistently are getting hit, 176 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 8: all of a sudden you start looking around. Those eyes drop. 177 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 8: You're chasing ghosts. Your accuracy is affected. There is no 178 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 8: replacement for being able to get pressure with four. 179 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 5: I mean a year ago at the end of the season, 180 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 5: you had Nae Kwon Jones, and you had some other 181 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 5: guys like off the practice squad that right now Wolf, 182 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 5: that defensive line, Darius Robinson, Walter Nolan, Dalvin Tomlinson, Koleis Campbell, 183 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 5: Justin Jones, Blall Nickels back from injury. Stop it, Dante 184 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 5: Still's LJ. Collier. That's eight stop it. That's eight dudes 185 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 5: who can play. 186 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: It's incredible. Paul It really is. And again the defensive 187 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. It impacts the second and third levels 188 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: so much, Paul, by getting that pressure on a quarterback, 189 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: by making them a little bit inaccurate because you're in 190 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: his face and he doesn't be able to he's not 191 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: able to release the ball the way that he wants to. 192 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 1: It's so important. It impacts a second and third level. 193 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: And that's why Will Johnson, who's got a great mind, 194 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: This is a quarterback like Everson Walls, who is gonna clue. 195 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: He looks at the quarterback and play in his own room, 196 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 1: whether it's cover four, quarter coverage cover three, whatever it is. 197 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: Will Johnson is great at jumping, combination routes and picking 198 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: off the football. And if you can get pressure on 199 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: a quarterback, that's gonna make Will Johnson that much better. 200 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 5: Hey, learn more about arizon A Cardinal season tickets, Premium 201 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 5: seating group and luxury field seating.

In fact, 228 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 5: last we saw and heard our guest here on the 229 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 5: big red rage. He was on the Pasch pod, but 230 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 5: what is becoming a bit of a tradition post draft. 231 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 5: We are joined by Assistant general manager Dave Sears, and 232 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 5: Dave welcome. I'm a little apprehensive considering the way this 233 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 5: week started and Bill's GM Brandon being going after a 234 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 5: couple of radio hosts in Buffalo. You know what you know? 235 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 5: Are there any grievances that need to be aired on 236 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 5: your end of all? 237 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 9: All? 238 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 10: Listen, I'm not going to take any crap from you 239 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 10: the Paul, So let's just get that out there right now. Hey, 240 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 10: I appreciate you having me on here. 241 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 5: Speaking to the media. Let's be honest, all right, we're 242 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: in the Will Ferrell trust tree here. When you guys 243 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 5: need a good laugh, right when you're doing the grind 244 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 5: leading up to the draft and you're up in the 245 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 5: draft room, do you just pull out a mock draft? 246 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 5: Is that a good Do you guys just mock the 247 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 5: mock drafts along the way? 248 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 9: Yeah? 249 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 10: You know, we do do some exercises pre draft process 250 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 10: where we'll incorporate some of the mock drafts. Our analytics guys, 251 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 10: Nick Tyas, Joe andrewsy do a ton of mock draft simulations. 252 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 10: So we do have a pretty good feel according to 253 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 10: the quote unquote experts, how they think it's going to 254 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 10: come off. We have some adress where we put up 255 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 10: how we think it's going to come off. How do 256 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 10: those things correlate, just to give you an idea of 257 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 10: what you're really going to be faced with when you're 258 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 10: on the clock. So there shouldn't be any surprises. A 259 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 10: couple of scenarios worked out very similarly to the way 260 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 10: we had it planned out, and then you know, as 261 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 10: the picks come off and then suddenly it diverges from 262 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 10: what you were thinking it might be, then you adjust 263 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 10: to that. So you do go through those exercises quite 264 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 10: a bit. 265 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 5: You know, the media likes to declare at this point 266 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 5: who won the draft. Our answer is Nick Rolis, Cardinals 267 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 5: defensive coordinator. At this point, let's just start with some 268 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 5: of his guys, Walter Nolan. You know, look, we can 269 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 5: see the stats, we can see the accolades. What did 270 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 5: you see on film? 271 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 10: Well, you see an explosive athlete who plays very hard, 272 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 10: who's a violent, aggressive player, a guy that can launch 273 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 10: off the ball, he can reset the line of scrimmage, 274 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 10: he can do everything we're going to ask him to do. 275 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 10: He has some versatility to play up and down the 276 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 10: line for probably a five all the way to a zero, 277 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 10: and a guy that really hasn't maximized yet. We still 278 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 10: think there's a good upside to the player, but you know, 279 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 10: fits the scheme and he's a violent, disruptive defensive lineman. 280 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, it doesn't turn twenty two until October. 281 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 10: He's still a young kid. You know, this is a 282 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 10: guy who's the number one recruit in the country, I believe, 283 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 10: coming out of high school Texas A and M and 284 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 10: then Aunt Old Miss where he had a really good 285 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 10: year this year, end up playing in the Senior Bowl, 286 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 10: flashing down there. We had some very good interactions with 287 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 10: Walter at the Combine and then on his thirty visit, 288 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 10: so we were very comfortable with Walter the person, and 289 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 10: the tape speaks for itself. 290 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 2: I think. Yeah. 291 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 5: There was an opening line in the AP story and 292 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 5: it went something like this, the Arizona Cardinals weren't scared 293 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 5: to roll the dice and a few polarizing defensive prospects 294 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 5: Will Johnson. I think you know the injuries, So for 295 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 5: do you consider this Will roll of the dice? Walter Nolan, 296 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 5: Will Johnson, and then we'll get to Jordan Birch. 297 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 10: But yeah, well, I mean, you're not rolling the dice 298 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 10: on Walter's talent. I'm not sure where that assumption would 299 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 10: come from. And Walter's tape is not a roll of 300 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 10: the dice, So I don't I don't really see it 301 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 10: that way. I think there's probably a little bit of 302 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 10: media misinformation about Walter the person. Sometimes that happens in 303 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 10: the draft pross. But we spent enough time with Walter 304 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 10: to feel very comfortable with him, so it's not a 305 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 10: roll of dice for us, you know. And with Will again, like, 306 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 10: this is a guy that's a true junior. He's a 307 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 10: three time All American. He's got the Michigan record for 308 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 10: pick sixes. He was a defensive MVP the National Championship game. 309 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 10: I mean, every time he turned on the tape, the 310 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 10: guy's playing good ball. You know, his father was a 311 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 10: player at Michigan at DBI. He's a well regarded trainer 312 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 10: in the Detroit area. So like, this is about as 313 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 10: clean a player as you can find in terms of 314 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 10: his skill set and his production. There were some injuries 315 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 10: with Will, but nothing we thought was that he couldn't overcome. 316 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: Or we can't manage. So we were excited about Will being. 317 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 2: There for sure. 318 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 5: Cardinals assistant GM Dave Sears our guest, at what point 319 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 5: do you think, Wow, Will Johnson might make it to 320 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 5: forty seven. 321 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 10: At pick forty six? You know, we never thought that 322 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 10: guy was going to be there. Really never thought that 323 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 10: guy was going to be there. So that was one 324 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 10: of the ones where you heard many talk a lot 325 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 10: post draft about sticking to your board. That's a clear 326 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 10: case of that Will was obviously the best player that 327 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 10: we had on the board at that time. We never 328 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 10: thought Will would be there at that point, and so 329 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 10: you know, you stay with your board and you take the. 330 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 5: Prospect and Money also mentioned the phones were lighting up, 331 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 5: there were opportunities to trade down. I'm guessing there was 332 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 5: a lot of interest, a lot of demand at that 333 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 5: point for your pick. 334 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, and whether that's for Will or for somebody else, 335 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 10: you never know. 336 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 2: You know. 337 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 10: The thing that I think when you talk about the 338 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 10: mock drafse, well, the mock drafts grade you off how 339 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 10: they had their board stacked and how you drafted according 340 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 10: to their experts board. Well, there's thirty two teams and 341 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 10: I've been on a lot of different places. There's thirty 342 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 10: two different boards. So a guy that we think is 343 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 10: coming off a little early, that team thinks, hey, we 344 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 10: got to move up and take this guy. 345 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: You know. 346 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 10: So everybody sees it a little bit different. And you 347 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 10: can see that based off some of the moves teams make. 348 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 10: They feel like that's a player they need to move 349 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 10: up and get, or a player you can trade back 350 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 10: and get the same value later. So yeah, we did 351 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 10: not expect Will to be there, but we felt great 352 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 10: about it when it happened. 353 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 5: Two words have seen attached to Jordan Birch right the 354 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,479 Speaker 5: round three edge out of Oregon, jumbo athlete and all 355 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 5: you can do is watch his fake punt at six' 356 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 5: four what two to eighty and he looks Like Dereck 357 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 5: henry racing down the.

Ten he talks about. 430 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 5: Instincts how big a leap do you generally consider it 431 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 5: to wear a green dot from the college to THE nfl. 432 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 5: Level it's a pretty big. 433 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 10: Leap but usually the guys that can do in college 434 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 10: can do it in THE. Nfl you, know there's a 435 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 10: lot put on their plate. Too it's a newer thing 436 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 10: in the college, game actually having the green dot on the, 437 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 10: field but it's the same responsibilities the guys making the 438 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 10: calls are relaying and from the. Sidelines but you're looking 439 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 10: for that leadership, capacity that football intelligence, capacity the ability 440 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 10: to command ten other players on the field and know 441 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 10: where they all have to line, up and so if 442 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 10: somebody turns to you echoing the calls and getting guys 443 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 10: aligned before the. Snap so that takes some poise and 444 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 10: some football intelligence for. 445 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 5: Sure ASSISTANT Gm Dave sears our guest last. Year we 446 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 5: talked about just the unbelievable, popularity, right the insatiable appetite 447 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 5: for the draft, itself the draft. Process everyone thinks they're A, gm, 448 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 5: right including pencil next week yours. Truly so when The 449 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 5: cardinals traded the round five pick To dallas right for 450 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 5: a later on five pick in round, six and THEN i, 451 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 5: saw for, Example Tory horton come off the, board the 452 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 5: big fast receiver out Of Colorado, state and then THE 453 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 5: lsu Guard Miles frasier come off the. Board i'm, like, 454 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 5: oh those those might have fit a couple of needs 455 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 5: for The. Cardinals but then you cashed In Denzel burke the, 456 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 5: corner and then you went After Hayn, connor the offensive 457 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 5: lineman out Of, texas and it all sort of made. 458 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 5: Sense let's start With Denzel, burke AND i THINK mani said, 459 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 5: it just the just the cowboy receiver he has practiced 460 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 5: against At Ohio state the last four years is, ridiculous isn't. 461 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 10: It, YEAH i Think denzel has practiced against five first 462 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 10: round receivers of the last his. Career so the game's 463 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 10: easier For denzel in comparison to the guys he's going 464 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 10: as you, Know marvin And Garrett wilson And chris al And, 465 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 10: Jacobo Ya lave And buka this. Year So i'm a 466 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 10: really high competition. There the guy's battle tested local. PRODUCT 467 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 10: i Think souarrows we're in and he might have gone 468 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 10: To brophy, earlier but you, know the guy is a 469 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 10: four year. Starter he's got fifty one career. Starts that's 470 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 10: most by A dB In ohio state. History that was 471 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 10: so and so the guy certainly played a lot of 472 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 10: football at a high. Level obviously nobody's done that before, 473 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 10: there so that's pretty impressive in. Itself and that was 474 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 10: another you, know kind of like The Will. Johnson we 475 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 10: did not Expect denzel to be there in the fifth, 476 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 10: round and so we just had to stay with our 477 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 10: bourn and take the. Talent so we feel good about the. 478 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 10: Kid he was another guy that we had in here 479 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 10: on a thirty.

Ceiling all those kind of Things going To, 538 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 10: kyle scouting is a projection, business whereas like pro, scouting 539 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 10: how good is this player and does he fit what we're? 540 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: Doing SO i. 541 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 10: Don't know that there's a percentage that's the tape now 542 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 10: versus will to take be two years from.

PAST situations i think at some point in 706 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty, FIVE season i don't know if it's 707 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: from the, first GAME but i think early in, this 708 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: season at, SOME point I Think jordan birch is going 709 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: to be a guy that is playing out on. The 710 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: Edge Obviously josh sweat is going to be one of, 711 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: those guys but Opposite Of, josh sweat you might have 712 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: a just an absolute competition that you're talking about maybe 713 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: five guys that are going to be in the running 714 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 1: to be that. Guy OPPOSITE and i Also Think, jordan 715 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: birch because he's he's two hundred and, eighty pounds you 716 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: might want to line him up even as a three. 717 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: Technique inside but it's going to be fascinating to me 718 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: to see how they. Use him and you can say 719 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 1: that about so many, different Guys and polly would just 720 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: Say That nick rowlis is a guy that does some 721 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: unorthodox things from time to time in terms of scheming 722 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 1: up certain pass rushes. Or, coverages yes so when you 723 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: said he's a guy who, does that when You. 724 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 5: Said jordan birch in, that. Context right THE flexibility i 725 00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 5: Thought Is zavin collins on This Show Big red rage 726 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 5: in the year saying all the different positions he was 727 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 5: Used By Nick rowlis. Zay mccollins a nearly, six' five 728 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 5: two seventy he was inside of a three technique. On 729 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,439 Speaker 5: passing downs he's playing deep center field other times because. 730 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 5: He Can run, and i'm thinking, You Know what jordan 731 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 5: birch has a similar size, and skill set? 732 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: Does, he not, Yes, He does paul yet at, the 733 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: same Time You got walter, nolan as well and You Also. 734 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: Have darius, robinson two Guys Where is darius robinson going 735 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: to be over that that guards outside shoulder as, a 736 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: three technique especially on? Third and obvious where are the 737 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 1: pass rush reps? Gonna come from who's going to? Fill 738 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: that need it's going to be fascinating to watch that 739 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: as the. Season, on folds, Paul. 740 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 5: For example walter nolan, the third right he was known 741 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 5: for playing a boatload of snaps. AT all, miss i 742 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 5: mean he played almost the entirety, of every game and 743 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 5: That's something that cardinal's really respected about. His game film in, 744 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter he's still running. DOWN screens, downfield i 745 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 5: mean they really think he as. A great motor but 746 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 5: now instead of playing sixty, snaps a game if he's 747 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 5: playing thirty or thirty five really good snaps and he's 748 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 5: able to let it rip and you're bringing guys.

Went or where 752 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 5: if you force an, offense to answer how how can 753 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 5: you stop our dudes one on one? Four man rush 754 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 5: it just.
