1
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: Welcome Bird Gang. On today's show, Kyler Murray gets more

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: help in the passing game, Rondell Moore. We'll talk about

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: the team's newest playmaker. Has more had the stage all

4
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: to himself. On Day two of the twenty twenty one

5
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: NFL Draft, It's Cardinals Cover two, Episode four nineteen and

6
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: it starts now. Welcome to Cardinals Cover two with Craig

7
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 1: Griolu and Mike Jarecki. Cardinals Cover two is presented by Hyundai,

8
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: proud partner of the Arizona Cardinals and by Arizona Cardinals Podcasts.

9
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: Visit Asy Cardinals dot Com, Slash Podcasts. Murray rolls to

10
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 1: the right throws near sight of Fitts Park. He he's

11
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: into the ends off for the touchdown. Here's Craig Griolu

12
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: and Mike Jarecki. So two of the positions that the Cardinals,

13
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: at least according to the so called experts, MJ targeted

14
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: wide receiver and cornerback, and many had the ladder as

15
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: the more needed position. I'll raise my hand and say yes,

16
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: I'm included in that category. But with one pick on

17
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: Day two of the twenty twenty one NFL Draft, you

18
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: can't take care of both of those positions. So the Cardinals,

19
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: with their second round selection forty ninth overall, drafted the

20
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: wide receiver that everyone thought that the Cardinals needed to have,

21
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: and it's a perdue wide out, Rondel Moore as announced.

22
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: By the way, I need to give some props to

23
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: Calvin Beecham, the Cardinals starting right tackle, made the announcements

24
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: in Cleveland, and now Cliff Kingsbury with a new toy,

25
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray with a new offensive weapon. You look at

26
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: you know, sitting there at forty nine in like I

27
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: always tell you, you got to have three or four

28
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: names there, and it would have been very interesting if

29
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: Sante Samuel Junior would have been there. I want to

30
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: say when two picks ahead to the Chargers, and because

31
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: to me, again, receivers is something that but we know

32
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: how deep it is. And you know, you only have

33
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: two picks in the top forty nine. So you know,

34
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: it's interesting because if you had to rank the top

35
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: four receivers right now, Hopkins, Green, Kirk more so we're

36
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: discounting Larry Fitzgerald because well technically he's still a free agent.

37
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: And then you've got Andy Isabella, Keyshawn Johnson, and it's

38
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: it's going to be interesting in that wide receiver room

39
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: because it is top heavy. It's one and one or

40
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: it's one two, I should say. And then after that,

41
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: I got a whole bunch of question marks. All right,

42
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: let's talk about more and then we'll get into some

43
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: of the wide receiver room. Because that was the pick.

44
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: And you know, again, I think corner would have been,

45
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: not to say, the priority, but they did have a

46
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: need at corner and receiver, and you can't you don't

47
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: have two picks. So obviously you're gonna make a decision,

48
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: and they did that. I jumped ahead of myself, could

49
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: call him j. Let's talk a little bit more about

50
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: the player, rondel More five foot seven, one hundred and

51
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: eighty one pounds, though as general manager Steve Kim put it,

52
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: he is shorts, but he is quote thick and muscled up.

53
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: He is very stout, not afraid of the contacts, and

54
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 1: he runs a four three forty at a forty two

55
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: and a half inch vertical leap at his pro day

56
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: and a video that is going viral or actually ReViral,

57
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: if you will, because once upon a time it did

58
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: go viral and all of a sudden it's resurfaced. He

59
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: squatted six hundred pounds, So this is someone that I

60
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: think can take the pounding and not afraid of yards

61
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: after catch that first contact, you've got to be able

62
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: to bring him down because if you don't on that

63
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: first contact with his speed, he's gone, no doubt about it.

64
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: And you know, we talked about a guy like Davante Smith.

65
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: Can he get press coverage? You know, when you look

66
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: at this, it really fits what Kingsbury's offense wants. And

67
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: again we'll get into what happens with other guys, but

68
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, we always talk about bubble screens, jet sweeps,

69
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: you know, a quick, quick flare pass in the slot

70
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: where he can take off. If you look at some

71
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: of his highlights, he gets in the open field and

72
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: it's hard to catch him. And I got to think Craig.

73
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: When it comes to special teams, we've talked about it.

74
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: They it was a priority, and a lot of these

75
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: receivers and corners they have return skills. And that's why

76
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: I was so intrigued with Jalen Waddle. And here you

77
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: know dick return and punt return, so he's going to

78
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: be active on game day. We can say that right now.

79
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: I know it's all about and playing and Brahm's offense

80
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: a Purdue has some similarities. We know it's based on

81
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: coverage and routes. And he said he's going to be

82
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: a sponge when it comes to hop So yeah, but

83
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: I think this is a you know, again, they got

84
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 1: to get as many playmakers as they can for Kyler

85
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: Murray and you know, this is one way you can

86
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: kind of try to add some more speed on on

87
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: offense and then your return game because the return game

88
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: has been lacking. We know it's more what they do

89
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: when they you know, force fumbles or block punts, but

90
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: the return game's got to get better. So he's going

91
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: to be active. And then the other thing I look at.

92
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: You know, they say as a slot guy and based

93
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 1: on his numbers, but there's no reason when you go

94
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: for why you can't line him on the outside because again,

95
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: he gots that speed in vertical. You got to take

96
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: your chances. We know Kyler can throw the ball. I

97
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: think he's shown it with Christian Kirk a few different times.

98
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: And DeAndre Hopkins at least from the you know, the

99
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 1: thirty yard line down the field. And this is where

100
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: you can get creative if you're Kingsbury, whether you go

101
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: three wide or four and whomever is in the slot

102
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: or even have more as the outside receiver, and maybe

103
00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: you get some mismatches as far as dbs or maybe

104
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: a linebacker, but a dB against Rondel Moore that is

105
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: just not as quick, not as fast as him, and

106
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, that quick five or seven yard

107
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: pass becomes a twenty twenty five yard game and this

108
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: offense is more efficient as far as moving the football

109
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: up and down the field. Yeah, and you know, a

110
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: guy like Christian Kirk, I mean, he's I think he's

111
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: going to go in the final year of his contract,

112
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: so he's part of that Chase Evans I think draft class.

113
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: So it's I mean again competition and this I mean

114
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: the fact that they drafted a receiver. I'm you know,

115
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: maybe they thought they were going to do in the

116
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: first round if they would have drafted Waddle or Smith

117
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: or Chase if they dropped, so they probably felt like

118
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: it was going to happen. Maybe they're all hoping for

119
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: a corner, but yeah, I mean, and then he got

120
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: a new wide receivers coach in Sean Jefferson and he

121
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: worked him out, and so they have intel there. He

122
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: was on zoom calls and so it's going to be

123
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: interesting and again not to be redundant, but excited if

124
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: they can have that rookie mini camp where those guys

125
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 1: can get on the field. I know it's not going

126
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: to be the same, but you got to get on

127
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: the field and go through the reps and make mistakes

128
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: and get better in the film room. Everyone is pointing

129
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: to what Moore did in twenty eighteen. His freshman season

130
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: consensus first team All American as an all purpose player,

131
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: first team All Big Ten Big Ten Freshman of the Year.

132
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: He led all of FBS with one hundred and fourteen catches,

133
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: tied for eighth with twelve receiving touchdowns. But as he

134
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: also mentioned, he rushed the football. He returned both kicks

135
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: and punts, and I think that more than anything to

136
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: hear Kai mentioned. Jeff Rogers, assistant head coach special teams coordinator,

137
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: mentioned that he was high on more and this team

138
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: needs to improve both its return whether that's kickoff or punt.

139
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: We all thought a couple of years ago that that

140
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: was going to be Isabella didn't work out that way,

141
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: and it's been revolving door the past two seasons as

142
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: far as who's back there for kickoff and punts. But

143
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: if you can settle on Rondell More, not only is

144
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: he going to dress, but now all of a sudden,

145
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: he's active on game day and you have to use

146
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: him offensively. That's the way for these guys to get

147
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: on the field, be on special teams, and then all

148
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're a part of that offense or defense.

149
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: Because if you're not playing on special teams and you're

150
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: not a top tier guy, well then you're gonna be

151
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: inactive and you're gonna be watching from the sidelines. According

152
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: to CBS, and I tweeted this out, drafting More will

153
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: allow Kingsbury to move more into the backfield at times,

154
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: put him in motion before the snap, providing a defense

155
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: with a lot of speed to worry about, unquote. And

156
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: I think that is what Kingsbury wants to do as

157
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: far as get the speed. Now, this doesn't mean we're

158
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: gonna see at least I don't think this is going

159
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: to mean we're going to see more four and five wide.

160
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 1: I just think that you can be a little bit

161
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: more creative we've seen the emphasis on being more physical

162
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage, and certainly with the addition

163
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: of James Connor as a running back, you can, though,

164
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: I think mix and match and maybe, yeah, DeAndre Hopkins

165
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: doesn't come off the field, maybe you do a little

166
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: bit more rotation with an AJ Green and then you

167
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: interchange Kirk and more and then see what Isabella and

168
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 1: Keishawn Johnson are able to give you if they show

169
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: anything to you this offseason and training camp. Yeah, I

170
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: don't have a comp. And this guy was a freak

171
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: at Florida and he was a really good NFL player,

172
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: played through some injuries, And I don't know Percy Harvard.

173
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: You know, you know how they used to use Percy

174
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: Harvard in Minnesota, in Seattle where you can actually put

175
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: him in the same backfield as Chase Edmonds, get him

176
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: in motion. We talk about all the time if he's

177
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: in motion and quick pass Kyler of one step, boom

178
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: off to the races. So, yeah, I don't know the comp.

179
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure I can find it, but you know, definitely

180
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: a lesser version of Percy Harvin where you know, a

181
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 1: kickoff return, in a punt return, you know, I always

182
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: say you try to get to the twenty five yard line.

183
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: We know teams are kicking in a little bit shorters

184
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: and then they're kicking through the end zone. But I

185
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,839
Speaker 1: think this guy, if he's two or the rs deep,

186
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 1: he's going to try to bring it out. Well. Kin

187
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: brought up Tyreek Hill as far as his stature and

188
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: the ability to do a lot of different things. I've

189
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: heard de Sean Jackson, who was also the forty ninth

190
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,199
Speaker 1: overall pick back in two thousand and eight and had

191
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: a very long career. And then you look within the division.

192
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett is another name that I've heard when you

193
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 1: talk about Rondelle Moore as far as the heights, the weights,

194
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 1: and just the ability with the football in their hands.

195
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: However they get that football in their hands, whether it's

196
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: on special teams, whether that's a handoff, whether that's a toss,

197
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: a screen, or you utilize that speed and it's a

198
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: deep shot either down the middle of the field or

199
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: towards the sideline. But it's all about the reps and

200
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 1: getting Kyler Murray and Rondelle Moore on the same page.

201
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: That rookie minicamp, as you mentioned, is going to be huge,

202
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: some kind of an offseason program training camp to be

203
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: able to work on that chemistry now as opposed to

204
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: waiting until June early July. They'll have a couple of

205
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: arms in camp, Chris Trevor and Cole McDonald, and you

206
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: know clearly at some point, you know, Cole McCoy and

207
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: Kyla rad come in. But again, I just look at

208
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: it and I agree with you. I mean, I think

209
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 1: they learned the hard way trying to go four and five. Y.

210
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 1: There's a time and a place where if you need

211
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: to get it's two minute, two minute or four minute offense.

212
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: And we know I like the no Murray offense where

213
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: you're huddling. You're not huddling, but you're also calling places

214
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: from the sidelines, so hopefully they don't substitute. But that's

215
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: where you know, four or two minute drive, that's where

216
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,839
Speaker 1: you can go for three and four. Ya gotta get

217
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: guys out of bounce, You gotta try to get in

218
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: a field goal range. But I do think just getting

219
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: them on the field and who knows how so many

220
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: snaps he's gonna play because we know hop doesn't come

221
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: off and you know Aj Green, We'll see if Keyshawn

222
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: Johnson has a good camp because he's kind of kind

223
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: of lean like AJ and he's going to be on

224
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: the outside. So you know. The elephant in the room though,

225
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: is Andy Isabella. Yes, because he was a second round

226
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 1: pick two years ago, and if he had materialized and

227
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: produced and grown as a player as the Cardinals had anticipated,

228
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: they're not in this position right now. As far as

229
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: drafting a receiver on Day two, I mean, that's you

230
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 1: would have filled that need and you would look elsewhere.

231
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: So this I wouldn't say it's an indictment on Andy Isabella,

232
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: but he's on notice to the point where it would

233
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: not surprise me depending on what happens this offseason if

234
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: he doesn't make a step up this offseason, I mean

235
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: he I mean, you can say this about a lot

236
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: of players, MJ. But you know, there is no guarantee

237
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: that he's on the roster, at least in my opinion,

238
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: looking from Afar not being in that room and looking

239
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: at film and being a part of the conversation. But

240
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: he has to do something otherwise there are going to

241
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: be other people, whether that's Rondel Moore, who now was

242
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: the fresh new toy and then Keyshawn Johnson. Can he

243
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 1: step up? Christian Kurt who we all love, the local

244
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: product from Sarrel High School. He in the final year

245
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: of his contract. He needs to show something as well.

246
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 1: So those three players, I think there is going to

247
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: be a spotlight on them because if they don't show

248
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: something that they're going to be exiting stage left. I

249
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: think they'll normally keep six, probably dress five on game

250
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: day and then maybe try to slide a couple in

251
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: the practice squad. And we know they're going to bring

252
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: in some undrafted free agents, some guys and probably have

253
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: a lot of speed. Maybe they're from a small school,

254
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: and there was no combine, no pro day, no medicals,

255
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: no background checks unless they bring them in here, which

256
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: they will do. Yeah, I mean, but I mean I

257
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: look at it, you know, Isabella, you know, I guess

258
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 1: they could try to, you know, see if there's a

259
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: market out there for him. But I think you bring

260
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: them to camp. Oh, I think so too, because you'll

261
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,719
Speaker 1: need bodies and then okay, and then you're whittling down,

262
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: you're making the cuts and then all of a sudden,

263
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: who's your final fifty three. So that's going to be

264
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: a talking point and that talking point as we're doing

265
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: it right here on Cardinals Cover Too, presented by day Probab,

266
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: partner of the Arizona Cardinals. It started now and that's

267
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: and it's not going to go away. Well we could

268
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: have said it to have started last last year because

269
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 1: you know, David Rye raped a bottom and again we

270
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: watched practice. He was he wasn't body catching, he was

271
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: catching it fluid. Um. You know he that definitely caught

272
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: some deep balls. Um. But it's when he gets in

273
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: the game and then when Larry was out there wasn't

274
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: a lot of spacing over there when when they're trying

275
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: to throw it to the right side, and he had

276
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: too many guys next to each other and that can't happen.

277
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: So I'm I mean, I'm not giving up on Kirk.

278
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: I know that's there. I watched him on social I mean,

279
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: he's he's working out. It's just he's been hit with

280
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: the injury bug and then the COVID I think really

281
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: affected him. But I think him and Chase, whether Chase

282
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: is part of the future, which we think, um, they're

283
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: both No, they're going into a contract here and there's

284
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: thirty one other teams watching on the wide receivers already

285
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: on the roster that had and on the roster. And

286
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: I remember a comments from new wide receivers coach on

287
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: Jefferson as far as basically a fresh start and going

288
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: in with no preconceived ideas, notions opinions on who was

289
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: already on the roster. So they're gonna get a fair start,

290
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: a fresh start, if you will. But I'll say this

291
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: because he is the most recent addition, and Jefferson worked

292
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: him out at Purdue Rondel Moore. As you put it,

293
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: as far as the depth chart, he's ahead of Isabella

294
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: and Keishawn Johnson right now. And that's someone that doesn't

295
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: even know this offense yet. Yeah, and that's something obviously

296
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: you know a lot of that's played between the years

297
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: and mental but he has played in a variation obviously different,

298
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: probably a little bit different motion and shifting just based

299
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: on personnel and the defense. I mean, I just when

300
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: you take a guy in the second round, Isabella, he

301
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: was active until we found out that maybe he wasn't

302
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: making mental mistakes in practice, but initially they were trying

303
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: to give him a role here. I just think when

304
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: you draft them in the second round, we talked about

305
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: the return game, and we talked about how fluid he

306
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: can be with his versatility and explosive in the open field,

307
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: and Kingsbury's often so I put him four right now,

308
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: I really do. I put Kirk three, and I put Green,

309
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: and then I put Hot. Now two guys that I've

310
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: always been intrigued with. AJ Richardson kind of built like

311
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: Bolden but numbers game and then Joejoe Ward. He flashed

312
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: in camp. Unfortunately they had no preseason game. So we're

313
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: going to see these guys in that third preseason, hopefully earlier,

314
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: and you know, maybe if they have a you know,

315
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: an OTA or a mandatory camp again, they're going to

316
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: be buried on the depth chart. But it's all you

317
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: can do is take advantage when you get your opportunities. Well,

318
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: it's competition. Kingsbury brought it up when he addressed the

319
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: media after the second round, and that was something that

320
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: I think every coach likes to have, is competition. It's

321
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: one thing to talk a good game, but now show it.

322
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: Prove it starts in the film room and then show

323
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: it to us on the field. As we talk, Day

324
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: two of twenty twenty one NFL draft as far as

325
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: what the Cardinals did, what they didn't do, and then

326
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 1: what the rest of the division did. More on that

327
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: in a moment, But I do want to bring up

328
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: the elephant in the room, if you will, because we

329
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: talk about availability with all of these players, and I

330
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: brought up Moore's twenty eighteen season, his freshman year. Well,

331
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: I bring that up because that's where all of the

332
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: tape is and something that kind acknowledged the quote unquote

333
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: obstacles that Moore has had to deal with injuries in

334
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, it was a hamstring injury. Last year, he

335
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: initially opted out, then decided to opt back in when

336
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: the Big ten decided to play, but then suffered a

337
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: lower body injury. So Moore has only played seven games

338
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 1: the past two seasons. It makes the evaluation much more difficult.

339
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: Yet at the same time, for me as a fan

340
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: and someone who covers his team, it's also all right, well,

341
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 1: what do we talk about. Yeah, it's great to have ability,

342
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: but your ability does nothing for me or us as

343
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: a team if you're not available, and Morondel Moore has

344
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: to be available, and he has not been the past

345
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: two seasons, and that's that could be an issue for

346
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: a smaller receiver. I mean, again, does he take those

347
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 1: big shots. I mean, I think again his elusiveness and

348
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: his explosiveness and getting off press and moving them around,

349
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to tag him. But yeah, I

350
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: mean it's it's a situation where you know, I still

351
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: think they want to run the football though, and you know,

352
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: we'll see who the five starters are. But like I said,

353
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 1: I you know, if I just feel like those other

354
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,719
Speaker 1: guys competitions, I mean, you're talking about somebody taking your

355
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: job possibly and then you know, I don't know if

356
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: it's Bella's practice squad guy. You know those rules, you

357
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: could be in a league. I don't know X amount

358
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: of years, but you know, it'd be curious to see

359
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: if he doesn't make the fifty three and you know

360
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: where does he land. But I'm gonna, you know, like anything.

361
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: And I couldn't agree more. And I'm glad you brought

362
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: up all Sean Jefferson, a new wide receiver coach, clean Slate.

363
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: So now when we when we talked to Kym and

364
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 1: I talked about outdout guys, and I said, twenty nineteen, here,

365
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: you got to go back to eighteen. Now, in fairness

366
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: to their scouts, they've been scouting this guy for three years,

367
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: and now you go back to the good tape and

368
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: then you could see, Okay, he's gotten a little bit bigger,

369
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: his routes are better, he's more aware of what's around him.

370
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: So there's little things. But again, those guys that size

371
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: sometimes you know, like Chase. Sometimes when Chase gets carried

372
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 1: the ball a bit more, he gets hit more like

373
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. Yeah, and you got to be able to

374
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 1: sustain that. And I think based off one hundred and

375
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: eighty one pounds, and if you just look at him

376
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: in his uniform, he does look a little bit bigger,

377
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: especially in the upper body, and I think that certainly helps. Now,

378
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: again we didn't see it the past two seasons, bizarre

379
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: as being able to sustand withstand those initial hits and

380
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: then get those yards after catch. And it was also

381
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: interesting bird game to hear Kay and bring up football.

382
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: IQ called more a true student of the game, and

383
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 1: what we hear the day before about Zaven Collins is

384
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: another guy who is a student of the game with

385
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,719
Speaker 1: high football. IQ two players that the Cardinals believe that

386
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: will contribute immediately as in week one, and a learning

387
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: curve that they don't think is going to be too severe,

388
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: And especially with Rondelle Moore at Purdue and head coach

389
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: Jeff Brohm, they do run similar concepts, So Kingsbury didn't

390
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: believe that their transition would be too difficult for him.

391
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: But it is gonna be fun to pay attention to

392
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: figure out, all right, how many places does more line up,

393
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: whether that's outside, inside, even in the backfield, and then

394
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: what does he do once he positions himself? How much

395
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 1: motion how much moving around is a Rondel Moore going

396
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: to do within this offense? Well, we know Kyler runs

397
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: the pistol very well. We know he can run the

398
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: zone read. He can run the RPOs which is a

399
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: run pass option, and to me, at that point in time,

400
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 1: he can just pitch it to him as he's standing

401
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 1: next to him and just try to get in the

402
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: open field. If you know, if your receivers were able

403
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: to block and your offensive line is able to contain,

404
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: I can see him in the backfield when you can

405
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: run that read option, Kyler's going out if they want

406
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: to try to go out to Kyler. Now, the sidelines

407
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: is going to be another defensive player. So to speaks,

408
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: they're going to try to force you out, but you

409
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: can pitch it and he has ability to take it

410
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: up the field. You don't want him going backwards though.

411
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: Young guys to kind of have a tendency to try

412
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: to make a play, and he'll learn that as he

413
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: goes quote in come, you want to get the ball

414
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: in his hands and let him create on the perimeter

415
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: end quote. So that is something that the Cardinals are

416
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: getting in Rondell More a very soft spoken player. As

417
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 1: we had a chance to hear from him, at least

418
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: via zoom after he was selected with the forty ninth

419
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 1: overall pick. Didn't have too much to say, mentioned that

420
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: he was comfortable both inside and outside. But I thought

421
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: he did open up when he was asked about his strength.

422
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 1: Talked about his versatility, being able to run, pass, play,

423
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: run past people, and then dynamic in the return game.

424
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: Those were his words, and I think that is where

425
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: he will have his biggest impact immediately and then see

426
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: if he can work his way up the depth chart.

427
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: As far as being on the field on offense, whether

428
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: that's with a Christian Kirk or in place of a

429
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk. Play in the slot. Oh, Craig, it seems

430
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: like the NFC West has been busy today with wide receivers. Yeah,

431
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: as you talked about that forty ninth overall selection the Cardinals,

432
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,439
Speaker 1: all of a sudden it became a run of wide

433
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: receivers because on Day one we did not hear from

434
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,959
Speaker 1: the Rams or the Seahawks. They did not have a

435
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 1: first round pick. In fact, they don't have a first

436
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: round pick next year either. But you look at the

437
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: Seahawk with the fifty sixth overall pick and the Rams

438
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: with the fifty seventh overall pick MJ. They went back

439
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: to back wide receivers, Seahawks selecting Dwayne Eskridge, the Rams

440
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 1: going with two two at Well, two players by the

441
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: way that you had on your big board. Yeah, one's

442
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 1: a big physical over receivering. The other one ways about

443
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty five pounds. Gridge out of Michigan

444
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 1: is the bigger back and then at Well is a

445
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: little bit smaller coming out of Louisville. Yeah. Two two,

446
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: I'll say this, we talked about this, and you look

447
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: at the Cardinals and yes they've added you know, more

448
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: Ron del Moore. But if you looked at Seattle, it

449
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: was DK Metcalf and Lockett okay, and then you look

450
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 1: at the Rams, it was really Cooper Cup Robert Woods.

451
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 1: Now they did add to Shaun Jackson and we know

452
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: he can fly. And then you look at the forty

453
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: nine ers, Brandon I, you Deebo Samuel, and you know,

454
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 1: maybe they'll get a guy back. This been an ir

455
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: So it's it's kind of top heavy and if teams,

456
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, we know that the RAM is probably going

457
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: to go a lot of eleven personnel, twelve personnel, two

458
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: tight ends. We know the Seahawks they're going to try

459
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 1: to run it and then throw it over your head.

460
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 1: So for the most part, it's like, you know, I

461
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: think the Cardinals, I wouldn't say they stack up because

462
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: those guys have been proven. You know, we're getting aj

463
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: Green on the second tale of his career. I mean,

464
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf's turning in the right direction, lock at tebou

465
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 1: I you you know, Jackson's on the other side, and

466
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,719
Speaker 1: then you look at Woods and Cooper Cup I think

467
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: is one of the best slot receivers in football. So

468
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: you know, I think in the off season we'll go

469
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: through positions and you know where do they rank in

470
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: certain categories and doesn't really mean anything. It's a team game,

471
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: but you can kind of see where they're judged when

472
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,199
Speaker 1: it comes to the NFC West. Yeah, wide receivers, and

473
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: we're going to be paying attention to how this play

474
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: it out. Picks numbers forty nine, fifty six, and fifty

475
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: seven as far as the wide receivers and its reminiscence

476
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: of what happened two years ago with Andy Isabella and

477
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: dk met Keppell. I'll say that right now, get out

478
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 1: in front of this story because it's what everyone is thinking.

479
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: It's what I thought immediately once I saw that the

480
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: Seahawks and Rams went back to back wide receivers. Because

481
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, it's not a large gap

482
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 1: as far as between selections, but it's something that you

483
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: could compare as far as oh what should have been

484
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: or what could have been? Yeah, details, now I have

485
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: to bring this up. They passed on him twice. They

486
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: passed on Russell Wilson at least twice. They wanted Bobby Wagner.

487
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: You were at the combine one trick pony coming on.

488
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: I had a neck injury. It wasn't productive in College.

489
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 1: But again, Russell Wilson give him a ton of credit. Now,

490
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: you know, a little silver lining for me Byron Murphy

491
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: was thirty three? And where was Andy sixty two or

492
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: something that sounds about right. I can't remember off the

493
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: top of my head, but it might have been in

494
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 1: the late sixties, yeah, or early six yeah. So anyways, again,

495
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: you can't miss on these guys. We all know it,

496
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: and that's the reason why they draft at rondel Moore Today,

497
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 1: Bird Gang. As we continue here following Day two of

498
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty one NFL Draft, Cardinals Cover two presented

499
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: by Hunday Proud, partner of the Arizona Cardinals, we opened

500
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: up the show talking about the two positions that the Cardinals,

501
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: at least going into the draft that we all thought

502
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: needed to be addressed, wide receiver and corner. Well, they

503
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: took care of wide receiver with the addition of Rondel Moore,

504
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: but you do look at that corner position and for

505
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: those that joined us after Day one of the draft,

506
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: MG I said it was imperative. I think that was

507
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: the word I used, that the Cardinals come away with

508
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: a corner here on day two that did not happen,

509
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 1: and I don't know how that might have transpired. At

510
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: the board ahead of them shook out a little differently

511
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: because before the Cardinals picked at forty nine, three corners

512
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: came off the board Tyson Campbell the first pick of

513
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: the second round, drafted by Jacksonville, and then you had

514
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: the Cowboys going with Kelvin Joseph with pick forty four,

515
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: and then the Chargers at forty seven, two spots ahead

516
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: of the Cardinals. Asante Samuel Junior, who I know was

517
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: a big name that a lot of Cardinal fans wanted

518
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: to have, and we're hoping that maybe he would fall

519
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: to forty nine. No guarantee that the Cardinals would have

520
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: selected him with that forty ninth overall pick, but come

521
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: was asked about the corner position and said, look, we

522
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: stuck to our board, and he mentioned it the day

523
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: before that you don't want to reach with the pick,

524
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: and it certainly sounds like they would have reached if

525
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: they went corner here in the second round. I'm confident

526
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: saying if Samuel was there, they were going to take him. Okay,

527
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: he talked about him on the radio today. Now he's

528
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: a little bit different than these six ft one six

529
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: ft one are six feet to corners. He's five to

530
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: eleven physical place, you know, kind of like his father

531
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: when he was in the league, played at Florida State. Again,

532
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: he's much thicker in the lower body, so and he's

533
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: willing to come up in press coverage and also in

534
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: the run game. I do think they would have taken them,

535
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: but you look at what they gave aj Greencraig, you know,

536
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:18,120
Speaker 1: three years, couldn't make six. And then you know Rondell

537
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: Moore is going to be on a rookie contract, so

538
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: and they weren't going to go out and spend twelve

539
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 1: million dollars on a free agent wide receiver. So you

540
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: could see that they're paying hop a lot of money.

541
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 1: Christian Kirks on his rookie contract, Isabel's on his rookie contract.

542
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: More is going to be on his rookie contract. So

543
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: I have no problem with the move. If Samuel was there, though,

544
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: I would expect them to pick them. Yeah, And it's

545
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 1: when you're doing this and you're judging things from the outside,

546
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: and you know, full disclosure, we don't watch all the film,

547
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: the all twenty two. We don't have these zoom meetings.

548
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: We don't get to know the players, the draft prospects,

549
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: so it's easy for us on the outside say, oh,

550
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: just take this guy, take that guy. He did this,

551
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: he did that, But you don't know and come again,

552
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: brought up how much of a character person the character

553
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: traits that rondel Moore showed, and that means something to

554
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: these teams because you're investing not only draft capital, but

555
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: a whole heck of a lot of money that you

556
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: hope that you're getting these guys for four or five, six,

557
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: seven years and you're signing them to a second contract.

558
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: So this all plays a factor. And for us, it's

559
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: just sometimes you look at highlights and you read draft

560
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: reports or mock drafts and say, oh, they should have

561
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: done this, they should have done that. So if they're true,

562
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: and I got no reason to believe was not. That

563
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: they stuck to their board and the highest player remaining

564
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: on their board was rondel Moore, Well then that's what

565
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: you do. You select more, and that's exactly what they did. Yeah,

566
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: when it comes to Samuel, just a whole background with

567
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: his father, and you know there's a lot of guys

568
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: that you know their father played in the game Joe J. C. Horne.

569
00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: So to me, he's he grew up around it. So

570
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: I think he could have been a guy that came

571
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 1: in here and just learned, you know from you know,

572
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: some of those dbs. You know, obviously Murphy's young, and

573
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: then you look at Alford, but Buddha Baker. So I

574
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: think he would have been a guy. Uh And Kim

575
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: actually used this reference to what he comped and traits

576
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: Girard powers. He said, we had a five ten corner

577
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: on the outside and he held up for us. And

578
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: we know Girard was he was physical, he attacked the

579
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: run game, and he was getting picked on because Pat

580
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: p on the other side. But that's that's kind of

581
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: how he alluded to Samuel five he's five eleven, little

582
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: bit thicker, But that was the comp he used when

583
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: it come to traits. I don't know what it's going

584
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: to look like on day three as far as the

585
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: corners still on the board and whether you take someone

586
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,239
Speaker 1: with the picks that the Cardinals still have left and

587
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: it's you know, three more picks that they have or

588
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: excuse me, four more picks that they have to go

589
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: as sixth round, fifth round, sixth round, and two in

590
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: the seventh round. So do you draft a corner? And

591
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 1: even if you're getting a corner with one of those

592
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: four remaining picks, it's later in the draft. They're certainly

593
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: not as talented as the upper tier corners. My guess

594
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: is we're going to hear sooner rather than later that

595
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: a corner or two, maybe even three we've signed in

596
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: free agency, because that's the route that this is trended

597
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: in right now, that the Cardinals need to go out

598
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 1: and invest some money in a cornerback. Yeah. I mean

599
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: I can bring up big, a lot of names, rich

600
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: In Sherman, he was a Stanford guy, obviously, smart guy.

601
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: You know, we'll see where he signs. But I just

602
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: look at it. You know, whoever they draft tomorrow, they're

603
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: not going to be a starter. They're not. I mean,

604
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Butler, it's gonna be all For, and

605
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: then it's gonna be Murphy. I mean, and I know

606
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: injuries occurred, and you know they do have some backups

607
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 1: more safeties. I would say safety is really good right now.

608
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: I know that like a couple of safeties in this

609
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 1: draft if they would have felt to him, but those guys,

610
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you're just gonna have to find a guy that,

611
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: like I said, you know, they love Tyson Campbell, the Compass, DRC,

612
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: Skinny Fast Raw. I mean, he and he went first pick,

613
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: and I'm sure their phone was ringing this morning because

614
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: everyone's like turning. And then all of a sudden he

615
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: started to see some running backs come off the board.

616
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, I gotta think but at this point,

617
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: they're not going to be a Day one starter, so

618
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: you just got to flood the position and there'll be

619
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: some free agents they bring in that are gonna to

620
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: take the minimum. Yeah, and I think we'll get that

621
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: once the draft is over with, because that's something that

622
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: needs to be addressed. You can't wait any longer. It

623
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: can't be a time time sign in the month of June.

624
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: It's it's got to be now. It's got to be

625
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: in a month of May that you address this cornerback

626
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: position because at the moment and that are just five

627
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: on the roster. Yeah, and there was, you know, some

628
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: speculation that maybe they could have taken a tight end today,

629
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: the Penn State tight end. Again, I don't think he

630
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: would be as high as Rondel Moore on the Cardinals board,

631
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: so that's probably why they went a different round. Again,

632
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with Tyler Effort. He is a

633
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 1: free agent. I think the Cardinals would like to get

634
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: another veteran in here and then bring six to camp.

635
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: But to me, that would have been a luxury pick

636
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: a tight end. But you know, max is On contracted

637
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 1: is his final year. Darrell Daniels, they owned his rights

638
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: for the next couple years, so he want to get

639
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: a young guy that you can groom and kind of

640
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: like a little bit of a pass catcher but also

641
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: a blocker. It's going to be a long wait now

642
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: for the Cardinals, who do not pick again until the

643
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: fifth round. Again, reminder, Burgang no picking round three, that

644
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: was part of the Rodney Hudson deal. No picking round

645
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: four because of the acquisition of DeAndre Hopkins and name

646
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: that come didn't mention as far as okay, now what

647
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: do you do? He said, Oh, you know, well, review

648
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: the board, look at some film, look at the depth

649
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: chart and see the names of Hudson and Hopkins. And

650
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 1: as he said, quote be appreciative, and I fully accept that.

651
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's you know, what'd you say? It?

652
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: Was a hundred plus picks before the Cardinals, one hundred

653
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: and eleven before the Cardinals are once again on the clock. Yeah,

654
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,280
Speaker 1: but I mean, at this point in time, just reset

655
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: your board and stick to it. I mean, I do

656
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,359
Speaker 1: think they're gonna get a corner though, I do, I really,

657
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 1: and running back wasn't an option today. I didn't think

658
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,919
Speaker 1: so either. In fact, in round two there was only

659
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 1: one running back that was selected, and that was the Broncos,

660
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: taking Jamante Williams at pick thirty five overall. So I didn't,

661
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't want to see a running back selected.

662
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: I was leaning really heavily towards corner, but Nigie Harris

663
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 1: was real close. Yeah, I know. I would not have

664
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: been happy with that selection. I'll admit that freely right

665
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 1: now to the fact that would not have been happy

666
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: with that selection. Just it's all about it's all about value.

667
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: We would have heard today how potent his cardinal offense

668
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: is gonna look yeah okay, and you're paying Hopkins x

669
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: and you got wide receivers, who's gonna line up and

670
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: go wish boe. I much prefer linebackers, Avan Collins, Sue MJ.

671
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 1: Before we close up. This edition the Cardinals Covered Too,

672
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: presented by Hunday, proud partner of the Arizona Cardinals. We

673
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 1: did hear from again. He was at the facility of

674
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 1: the Dignity Health Arizona Cardinals Training Center. He was flown

675
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 1: out from Oklahoma by owner Michael Bidwell and then got

676
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: a tour of the facility and address the media once

677
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 1: again via zoom, and one comment stood out. His self

678
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: confidence is off the charts, but he is certainly confident

679
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: in his own ability. But he does not allow that

680
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: self confidence to get too high. Quote don't let the

681
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: ink get in your eyes end quote. And otherwise, don't

682
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,399
Speaker 1: believe all the hype, don't believe all the criticism that

683
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: might be coming your way. Be confident in your own ability.

684
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,280
Speaker 1: And Collins is certainly that he is very confident. Yeah,

685
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: and I recommend you had to do a YouTube Arizona Cardinals,

686
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 1: you know, draft coverage, and they go through the pick

687
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: and he's very colorful and I'm sure somebody's going to

688
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 1: print up some shirts. Anyways, it's fascinating, it's great behind

689
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,879
Speaker 1: the scenes and just how exciting he was and they were,

690
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: and you know, it's his family and now again, that's

691
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: great content and the organization does it's a great job

717
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 1: close out the twenty twenty one NFL Draft. I know

718
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 1: is the Packers just took a wide receiver, more wide

719
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: receivers off the board. Don't tell bertrand Barry that it

720
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: is an offensive league. It's all about the passing game.

721
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: Don't tell be Train any of that. I was bringing

722
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,280
Speaker 1: it up because they finally got Aaron Rodgers a weapon.

723
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 1: That's true too. Don't forget about that storyline that is

724
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: not going away. And let's not pick that scaff Yeah,

725
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 1: we'll just have to wait and see on that bird

726
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,040
