6

Speaker 1: the great producers in NFL films, executive producer and hosts

7

Speaker 1: of the NFL Matchup Show, which you can find on

8

00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,439

11
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 3: but it's always great talking with you guys. Yeah.

12
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and we'll make sure we see in person very soon. Greg.

13
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: So let's start here.

14
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: Every year, I feel like you're at different places in

15
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: terms of this draft class.

16
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 2: How much work have you done on this draft class

17
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: and where you at?

18
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean not as much as I normally have

19
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 3: by the combine, because I feel like the Super Bowl

20
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 3: just happened yesterday.

21
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 2: It feels that way.

22
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. So I mean, you know, because I can't really

23
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 3: start in detail till like mid January. Now I have

24
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 3: a baseline of a lot of guys because what I

25
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: do in the summer is I watch about one hundred

26
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 3: and hundred and twenty guys that are likely to be

27
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 3: in the next year's draft. Now, usually twenty five thirty

28
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 3: of those guys drop off one way or another. But

29
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of the main guys. You know,

30
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 3: it's not a great draft in my opinion from what

31
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 3: I've seen so far, certainly at the positions that we're

32
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 3: used to talking about, you know, those sort of main positions,

33
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 3: the fun positions. I guess you know, this is a

34
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 3: draft where I'm hearing from people, and I think the

35
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: tape validates it. You know, normally in any given draft

36
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,279
Speaker 3: there's probably fifteen to twenty players that have true first

37
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 3: round grades. This year, i'm hearing there might be ten

38
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 3: or eleven that have true first round grades. But of

39
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 3: course thirty two guys are going to get drafted in

40
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 3: the first round.

41
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 4: The Ohio State guys up at the top.

42
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 3: I've done those guys.

43
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I figured you had, So I'm gonna ask you

44
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 4: because there's a lot of flavor kinds of preferences here

45
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 4: in terms of how do you rank them and does

46
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 4: the positional value come into play? Can I go right

47
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 4: there to the top handful of Ohio State guys and

48
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 4: ask and how you feel about their translations to the pros.

49
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, those guys I've done so Yeah, you definitely can

50
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 3: do that.

51
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 4: So so so, how how would you rate the most

52
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 4: NFL potentialed in terms of that that cluster of Ohio

53
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 4: State guys.

54
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 3: Well, I mean they're really good players. The question becomes

55
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 3: deployment in the NFL. Like Caleb Downs is a very

56
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 3: good player, but he's not Nick him and Warrior Derwin James,

57
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 3: he's probably and I don't have his numbers right now.

58
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 3: I think dv's go. They work out on tomorrow, right, Yeah,

59
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 3: And I'm sure the numbers are in. I just haven't

60
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 3: seen him. My guess is he's going to be in

61
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 3: the five eleven to six foot range and probably the

62
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 3: way you know, one ninety five to two hundred.

63
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: Probably Brian Branch. Brian Branch kind of size, right like

64
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 1: kind of like that that that type of thing.

65
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and a lot of people see him that way.

66
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 3: The other two names that I thought of when I

67
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 3: finished his tape and I watched him last summer and

68
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 3: this year, I thought of Buddha Baker and Antoine Winfield.

69
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, those are good, and I.

70
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: Think he's going to be a really good player. His

71
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 3: tape is fun to watch. He's smart, he's savvy. I

72
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: spoke to a coach who told me that his intelligence

73
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: was off the charts, So you know, but he's not

74
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 3: Nick Immon Warrior, Derwin James, so you have to know

75
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 3: what he is. But he's a really, really good football player.

76
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: How about Sonny Styles? The other guy again a non

77
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,119
Speaker 1: premium position, a converted safety.

78
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on him?

79
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 3: Love him? Did him? Last summer before anybody knew about him?

80
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: Called up a good friend of mine who worked for

81
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 3: me years ago on the Matchup show, who's been a

82
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: scout in the league for years. I said, hey, he

83
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: does the Midwest by the way, I said Sunday Styles.

84
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 3: I said, this guy is phenomenal. He goes, oh yeah,

85
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 3: he is ridiculous. I love Sunny Styles. He's six', three

86
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 3: probably two forty. Ish he's only in his second year playing.

87
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 3: Linebacker he was much better this year just in terms

88
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 3: of how he saw the. POSITION i spoke to A

89
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 3: gm THAT i know well yesterday who's been in the

90
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 3: league for, years who told me he was the best

91
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 3: interview he's ever. Done SO i don't think there's any

92
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 3: negative wards On Sunny. STYLES i think he's a really

93
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: really good. Prospect AND i underline the word prospect, guys

94
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 3: because these guys have not played in the league.

95
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 1: Yet now let me ask, you do you Put Carnell

96
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: tate in the same category just in terms of quality

97
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: of player as those other two, guys Greg or is

98
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: he on a tier.

99
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 2: A little bit below those guys for? You a little bit?

100
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 3: BELOW i, mean you, know you know, me, GUYS i

101
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 3: don't necessarily make. Lists he'd probably he'd probably be my

102
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 3: number one receiver IF i made a, LIST i. Don't

103
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 3: there's No Jamar chase in this. Draft let's start. There

104
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: BUT i Think tate's going to be a solid. Pro you,

105
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 3: KNOW i THINK i asked somebody About tate Versus abuka

106
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 3: who came out last year, here and the feeling, is you,

107
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 3: know they're sort of in the same, box you, know

108
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 3: or the exactly the Same, no but they're kind of

109
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 3: in the same. BOX i, MEAN i Think tate will

110
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: be a really solid pro. Receiver we get caught up

111
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: and who's the number, one who's the number? Two you,

112
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 3: know who's, This who's? That LIKE i, said there's, No Jamar,

113
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 3: chase BUT i Think. Tate. Yeah and you know how

114
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 3: THE nfl, Is it depends on the pass. Game you,

115
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 3: know sometimes a guy could catch ninety, balls but you

116
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 3: would never say, that, oh he's a top three receiver

117
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 3: in the. League you know he could catch a lot

118
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 3: of balls based on the you, know the pass game.

119
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 3: SCHEMATICS i, mean look At Wandell, Robinson Rondelle, robinson you,

120
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 3: know caught a ton of. Balls AND i know he's

121
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 3: a free, agent but no one's gonna say he's a

122
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 3: top three receiver in the.

123
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 4: League Marvil weeks a Guy greg WHO i think de

124
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 4: petting upon the scheme and the. Coordinator you may get

125
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 4: max value ahead of, him and maybe you. Won't how

126
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 4: do you see him translating?

127
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 3: Now that Guy paul is a. FREAK i would play

128
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 3: him on the. EDGE i think that that's where he can.

129
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 3: Be you know that's a premium. Position now keep in, mind,

130
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: well you you have to have a plan for him

131
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: before you draft, him because when you line up your

132
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 3: first day of OTAs and you know you're in shorts

133
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 3: and A t, shirt you got to put him. Somewhere

134
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 3: you can't put him one place On monday another place On,

135
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 3: tuesday another place On. Wednesday you got to teach him

136
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 3: how to play one position in THE, nfl AND i

137
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 3: think his most pactful position as he continues to grow and.

138
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 3: Develop he's twenty years old and is a one year. Starter,

139
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: OKAY i think as an edge player that he could be,

140
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 3: really really. Disruptive he's got, Power he's he's you, know

141
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 3: is he truly? Bendy maybe, not but boy does he

142
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 3: have power and he is an explosive. Athlete howdle up

143
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 3: get in?

144
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 5: Here if you're lined up, here you got to go

145
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 5: over the middle with at the? Score?

146
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 3: Great how do we make that? HAPPEN i don't?

147
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 5: Know but? Citizens does it makes sense of your money With?

148
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 5: Citizens Official bank Of Eli.

149
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 3: Manning.

150
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: YEAH i think if he, DEVELOPS i think you're looking

151
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: at A Will anderson type right in terms of in

152
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: terms of how he plays the.

153
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 3: POSITION i, MEAN i Almost and, again you, KNOW i

154
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 3: hate making these comparisons because that's all all people think

155
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 3: about instead of going to the context the, nuance which

156
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 3: unfortunately seems to be lost in a lot of conversations these.

157
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: Days BUT i MEAN i looked at him AND i

158
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 3: thought that down the road there's A Micah parsons element

159
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: to his. Game.

160
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: Wow, Interesting, yeah that's that's a big. Name what do

161
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: you think Of Monsieur delayne out OF? Lsu i've done, Him,

162
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: yep what do you?

163
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 3: THINK i like? Him he looks bigger than he. Is

164
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 3: he plays, Long he's very, smooth he's very. Fluid he

165
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 3: has a great feel for. ROUTES i wouldn't call him

166
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 3: sudden and, twitchy but he's he's really a comfortable looking.

167
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 3: ATHLETE i really liked his tape a. Lot you, know,

168
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 3: again the corner, position there's a lot of guys AND

169
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 3: i haven't gotten to those guys yet because corners take

170
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 3: a lot of work to. Do but you, know my

171
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 3: guess is he'll be in the top two or. THREE

172
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 3: i can't imagine many guys that would be, better you, Know, Greg.

173
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: It's, funny by the, Way, paul real, quick it's. Funny

174
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: WHEN i Watched, DELANE i even. Said we Had Dan

175
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: brugler on on one of our shows AND i said to,

176
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: Him Dave, man you, know he always gets around the

177
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: receivers to knock the ball. Away you, know he plays

178
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: like you, know he's a long player and he goes you, Know,

179
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: john he's only gonna measure with like thirty inch. Arms

180
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: AND i was surprised WHEN i heard, that BECAUSE i

181
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: agree with you when you watch, him he plays long.

182
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 3: And he looks long on, tape like you know WHEN

183
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 3: i put the tape. On AND i didn't do him

184
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 3: last year At Virginia, tech but OBVIOUSLY i did him this.

185
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 3: Year you, KNOW i, thought, oh this guy's like six

186
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 3: two two oh. FIVE i, agree you, know then WHEN

187
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 3: i looked him, up he's probably gonna be six, feet you,

188
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 3: know one ninety. Five but he plays.

189
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 4: Long, greg the positional value thing has a lot of

190
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 4: people try to push the tackles maybe higher than their

191
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 4: grades should. Be manoah And fano are two guys who

192
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 4: we think are going to be probably the first two tackles.

193
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,839
Speaker 4: Taken but in your, opinion are we looking so much

194
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 4: at projection here and possession of value that we're really

195
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 4: warping their grades a little too?

196
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 3: Much, WELL i think in this, Draft, paul you're going

197
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 3: to see a lot of guys get, drafted AND i

198
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 3: think that's true of wide receivers as. Well you're going

199
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 3: to see them drafted in the first round and then

200
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 3: they become first round picks who are probably not guys

201
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 3: that have universal first round, grades you. Know and The miami,

202
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 3: kid there's a big conversation about whether he's a tackle

203
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 3: or a, guard you, know AND i bet he gets

204
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 3: a shot of. Tackle but you know That i've had

205
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 3: that discussion with online people who know more THAN i.

206
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 3: DO i Did fano last summer AND i kind of

207
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 3: like the way he. PLAYED i think he needs to get.

208
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 3: Stronger and you, know when you, watch when you determine

209
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 3: whether a guy gets, stronger think of it this. Way

210
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 3: if he does everything right from a technique standpoint and

211
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 3: he still get shoved, back then it's not likely that

212
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 3: he's gonna be able to really deal with speed to

213
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 3: power in a great. Way if his technique is problematic

214
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 3: and that's why he gets pushed, back then AN o

215
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 3: line coach can probably, say you know, what IF i

216
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 3: fix his, technique then he can be. Better, so you,

217
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 3: Know fano needs to be stronger at THE nfl level

218
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 3: and anchor. Better The miami, kid he's built like a.

219
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 3: Guard he's a power. Player, Yeah i'm with.

220
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: You WHEN i watch mymy, NO I i think he's

221
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,599
Speaker 1: gotta built like a guard. Too BUT i, AGREE i

222
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: think he'll get a chance out there At Tackle Johns Little.

Speaker 1: GREG i want to switch here AND i go to THE.

228
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: Nfl no one watches more tape than. You what are

229
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: some of the main, trends both on offense and on,

230
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: defense separate into two parts that you saw develop over

231
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: the course of this season in THE nfl that you

232
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: think when teams go back and game plan for next

233
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: season and set up their offense and, defenses that that

234
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: part of the game is.

235
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 2: Going to be super charged come twenty twenty.

236
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 3: Six, well you, know you never know if one year

237
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 3: or even two years signifies a. Trend BUT i think

238
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 3: you're seeing a couple of things that you're. Seeing you,

239
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,839
Speaker 3: know you saw a good amount Of number, one you're

240
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 3: seeing on, defense more and more teams play with what

241
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 3: we call four, across whether you want to call it

242
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 3: quarters cover, four but four across because you, know playing

243
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 3: with a single high safety that's nowhere near as in

244
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 3: vogue as it used to, be because when you play

245
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 3: with four across to take away the, seams and and

246
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 3: that's a big deal because if you want to take

247
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 3: away the seams with single, high you got to do

248
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 3: some things that compromise your. Covering so you're seeing a

249
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 3: lot more for, across, which by the, WAY i think

250
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 3: increases the value of defensive. Tackles but that's a length

251
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 3: to your. Conversation the other thing that you're seeing on

252
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 3: the offensive side is an increased use of what we

253
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 3: would call base. Personnel for years we spoke about THE

254
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 3: nfl being an eleven personnel, league meeting three wide. Receivers

255
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 3: now you're seeing more multiple tight end, sets two and

256
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 3: even three tight, ends, fullbacks some teams playing with six

257
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 3: offensive linemen a good. Amount so those are two things

258
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 3: that immediately come to. Mind you, Know, john when you

259
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: asked me about things that are THAT i saw more

260
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 3: of this, Year i'm.

261
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: Curious you think defensive tackles are more valuable because you

262
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 1: don't have that extra guy in the box with the

263
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: single high and the safety download, Correct.

264
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: Yeah so what happens is you don't have to you

265
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 3: don't have a safety as a gap player in the run.

266
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 3: Game so now defensive tackles have to deploy a technique

267
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 3: that it's called gap and a half because now they've

268
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 3: got to take care of an extra gap because you

269
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 3: do not have that extra player in the.

270
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 4: Box, Greg we've been asking a bunch of people about

271
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 4: this offensive coaching mixture That giants. Have you Got, naggie,

272
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 4: right you Got, callahan you Got, roman this meat loaf

273
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 4: of offensive philosophies that's going to be in The giants

274
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 4: coaching room these. Days you STUDY nfl tape more than

275
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 4: anybody probably on the. Planet how do you expect that

276
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 4: this meat loaf is going to turn?

277
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 3: Out you, Know, paul that's a hard, question And i'm

278
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 3: just being, honest you. KNOW i, mean you, Know i've

279
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 3: been asked here at The combine a lot about Mad. Naggi,

280
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 3: OKAY i can't answer that. QUESTION i mean people will,

281

282
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 3: What you, know what's the game? Play what's the play?

283
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,319
Speaker 3: Calling you, know you'd have to be sitting in those

284
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 3: meetings to know. That you. KNOW i think what they

285
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,359
Speaker 3: wanted was they probably wanted a good mix of, ideas

286
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 3: a good mix of. Concepts i'm. Sure they feel That

287
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 3: Jackson dart and mentally can handle a, lot and they

288
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 3: want to give him a lot and let him. Grow you, Know,

289
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 3: Callahan Brian callahan has been schooled with a lot of different.

290
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 3: Quarterbacks he came From Zach, taylor you, know, initially which

291
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 3: is a lot of the. McVeigh he also worked In

292
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 3: detroit With Matthew, stafford you, know for a number of,

293
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 3: years so you, know he's seen a lot of different

294
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 3: concepts and really good quarterback. Play he knows what it looks.

295
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: Like you, Know naggie's been With Andy. Reid don't. Forget

296
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 3: you can say what you want About, naggie AND i

297
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 3: know there's this sense that he's not a good, coach

298
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 3: and no one knows. That that stuff's always easy to,

299
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 3: say but you, know don't. Forget he made the playoffs

300
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 3: with The bears With Mitch. Trubisky SO i, mean you,

301
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 3: KNOW i don't know the answer to that question other

302
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 3: than there's going to, be you, know a good influx

303
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 3: of ideas AND i think you want. That and my

304
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 3: guess is they believe That Jackson dart can handle all.

305
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 3: That if you want to know how to manage two,

306
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 3: many it's a crunch time. Football i'm your.

307
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,000

00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 3: to learn About amillia. Routine, YES i KNEW i.

311
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 5: Could help make sense of your money With. Citizens, yeah

312
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 5: let's look to the defensive.

313
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: SIDE i, Think, greg what do you think we're gonna

314
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: get From Denard wilson based on what you saw from

315
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: In tennessee over the last couple of years and obviously

316
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: his year before.

317
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 2: That playing In baltimore on The mike.

318
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 3: McDonald denard's a fascinating. Guy they didn't blitz very much In,

319
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 3: tennessee but that's because their corner were not very.

320
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: Good, yeah because he was Under Todd bowles And Greg

321
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: williams and those guys used to blitz all the.

322
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 3: TIME i was gonna say, THAT i think deep down

323
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 3: he would like to do, That but you, know you

324
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 3: have to play to your personnel and then you have

325
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: to decide with the. Giants and he'll decide, this you,

326
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 3: know whether he feels good about his, corners, because LIKE i,

327
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 3: said In, tennessee they were playing with backups street free

328
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: agents at. Corner SO i mean he just didn't feel

329
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 3: comfortable with. Pressure BUT i think deep down he would

330
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 3: like to. PRESSURE i can tell you one thing about The,

331
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 3: nard BECAUSE i know him is. Man he holds guys.

332
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 3: Accountable there's no bds With Lenard. Wilson you'll see, it you,

333
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 3: know once he gets. STARTED i, mean this guy is.

334
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: Serious you, know he loves, ball he lives. BALL i

335
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 3: mean he will hold guys accountable in a big.

336
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 4: Way greg the optimist and the guy who's going to

337
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 4: hold out a bunch of, hope, says you, Know hawball's in.

338
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 4: Here giants won four games last, year but they underachieved

339
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 4: in a lot of, ways and there's more talent on

340
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 4: the roster than people. Think in, fact Pal ball said

341
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 4: that as one of the reasons why he came. Here

342
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 4: Obviously dart was the league guy that he talked. About

343
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 4: your estimation because you've seen the whole league time and time.

344
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 4: Again where's The giants' roster in terms of this, division

345
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 4: THE Nfc? East how close are they Is?

346
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 2: Hawball?

347
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 4: Really is he that far out of? Whack what he

348
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 4: says he wants to be able to try to win right?

349
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 3: Away, WELL i, can't you. Know now that's the off Season.

350
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 3: PAUL i can't remember the Entire giants, roster, ye BUT

351
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 3: i think he's there because of the, quarterback BECAUSE i

352
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 3: think the belief is That Jackson, dart you, know will

353
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,439
Speaker 3: be a good. Player no, one no, ONE i, think

354
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 3: can sit here and say he's going to be this

355
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 3: or that, exactly BUT i think he showed enough that

356
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 3: you feel like he's going to be a QUALITY nfl.

357
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 3: Quarterback and you, know from WHAT i, understand he's a

358
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 3: pretty sharp. Kid so you, KNOW i Think tarbo went

359
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 3: somewhere where he feels that if there's kind of normal quarterback,

360
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 3: development that that gives you a chance to win. Games,

361
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 3: now you, know no one's going to predict fourteen and

362
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 3: three or anything like, that BUT i think the feeling

363
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 3: would be, that, hey If dart continues to, Develop you've

364
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 3: got two veteran offensive coaches In naggie And callahan that

365
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 3: this team can you, know. Compete whatever that means in

366
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 3: the context of number, one the division where The eagles

367
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 3: have made significant, changes that is that are total unknown right,

368
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 3: now you know that they can compete in the. Division

369
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 3: whether that, means you, know eight, wins nine, wins twelve,

370
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 3: wins we can't. Answer that now late In, february but you,

371
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 3: KNOW i think he's there because the.

372
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 4: Quarterback AND i Know greg that you haven't had time

373
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 4: with darn but just looking at the film from what

374
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 4: you saw On giants' tape last, year what made you

375
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 4: the most optimistic about him and what did you want

376
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 4: to see him clean?

377
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 3: Up, WELL i, think as is the case with many

378
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 3: quarterbacks who can, run what you've got to clean up

379
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 3: is you've got to get him to understand that to

380
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 3: run the past game and to you, know execute it

381
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 3: the way it's meant to be. Executed quarterbacks that can

382
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 3: run tend to leave the pocket too, early and they

383
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 3: all do, that and he did that and obviously we

384
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 3: saw that he got. Hurt that's going to have to.

385
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 3: Change that's not. Profound everybody knows. That i'm sure it's

386
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: been talked about it a thousand. Times the one THING

387
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 3: i think that he really needs to do a better job,

388
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 3: of and you, know now you get into coaching and

389
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 3: now you get into whether he's he can do, it

390
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 3: is he just needs to the field quicker and, better

391
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 3: because that means the ball will come out, quicker and

392
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 3: that's something that you can help them with to a certain.

393
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 3: Point some quarterbacks then develop. It other quarterbacks. Don't they

394
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 3: just don't see the. Field, well no matter, what you,

395
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 3: know the hope IS i think he's capable of. IT

396
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 3: i think there were flashes of, it but he definitely

397
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 3: needs to be able to do that with far more

398
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 3: understanding and.

399
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,439
