Speaker 1: Welcome to the official Pod. We are presented by Winn Bett.

2
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: Betty is the team sport Butt together with bet Eric Allen,

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: Anthony Beck, Eric Coleman. The two thousand NFL Draft is underway,

4
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: and it's underway in a big way for the New

5
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,959
Speaker 1: York Jets. How about today where in the first round

6
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: they draft Sauce Gardner with number four selection. They come

7
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: back at number ten get Garrett Wilson from While State,

8
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,840
Speaker 1: the dynamic playmaking receiver, and then Joe Douglas trades up

9
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: in round one Anthony and gets Jermaine Johnson, a pass

10
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: rusher out of Florida State, at number overall. I really

11
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: think they got three players that were top ten players.

12
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, when you look at the hall that

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 1: they got. You know, Joe Douglas talked about they started

14
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: making calls of fifteen, which means that there was you

15
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: gotta have value for a guy to make calls of fifteen.

16
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: So to me, they had him in a top ten

17
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people across the league,

18
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: you know, for whatever reason, I don't know it was

19
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: just because of a need thing, but you look at

20
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: those three players right there, you could have easily picked

21
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: Johnson at ten and just some there was some mock

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: drafts that having you know, four, I mean, so, uh,

23
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,559
Speaker 1: it's impressive. Man. You know, I'm excited. I'll be honest

24
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: with you. You You know, usually you know when you when

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: you go through the draft and the process and you

26
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: know you're trying to find the right pieces and you're

27
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: trying to get excited about different things. Well, you know,

28
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: one pick, you get it, and that's it. A lot

29
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: of teams just have one pick in the first round.

30
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 1: You're like, all right, I got a guy. But to

31
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: get three guys like that that are, to me, should

32
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: make instant impacts for your football team, I mean instant

33
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: like it, they better because that's what they've shown. I mean,

34
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: you're talking about the best defensive player in the A

35
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: c C. You're talking about arguably the best arguably the

36
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: best receiver in the entire draft. And then quarterwise, you know,

37
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: again the number one corner on the board, and in

38
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people's minds, that's a heck of the hall.

39
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,279
Speaker 1: How about this at the beginning of that day, ending

40
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: news conference should be night. Ending news conference is nearly midnight. Here,

41
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: Robert Sala looked at the reporters, and he gave a

42
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,839
Speaker 1: nod towards Joe Douglas and said, he's awesome. Oh man,

43
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: it is wonderful to see the chemistry that those two have,

44
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: in the bond that they have and how they're on

45
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: the same page. You talk about what kind of players

46
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,839
Speaker 1: that you need, uh to to change your organization. They're

47
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: bringing those guys in. They've been bringing them in. They're

48
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: changing the culture. They're bringing in playmakers, guys who love

49
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: the game of football. Uh. You know, listening to the

50
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: Sauce Gardner on his interviews, how humble he is, how

51
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: thankful he is to be in this position, and how

52
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: he can't wait to get inside the locker room and

53
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: learn from his teammates. That's the kind of guys that

54
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: you need in your locker room. Hard workers, big time playmakers.

55
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: You know Garrett, you know Garrett Wilson. You know another

56
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: big time playmaker, guy who can run every route, who's

57
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: played inside, he's played outside, he has great leaping ability. Uh.

58
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: Then you bring Johnson, uh edge rusher. You know this.

59
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: It was just an all around win for the Jets.

60
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: A plus today they won the first round. A plus.

61
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: You can't give him an ayah, it's got to be

62
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: an A plus plus. If anybody, yeah and Guru's out

63
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: there don't give him an A plus, then they're they're clear.

64
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: They're mistake there. I don't even care if I were.

65
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 1: It's not about working for the Jets or being on

66
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,119
Speaker 1: They get an A plus. That's what they did. Joe

67
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 1: Dougas did a great job, his staff did a great job.

68
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: And and to get Johnson at the end and make

69
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: those moves, I think that's all. It's wild to me

70
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: that they started making those calls at fifteen and they

71
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: eventually got it done with that trade with Tennessee at

72
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: twenty six and he was still there. I mean, look,

73
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: they got a bunch, and tells anybody else, I mean,

74
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: the kid is the best player in the a SEC. Defensively,

75
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: he is the most when you look at what he

76
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: did from from a pass rusher standpoint, outside of Hutchinson,

77
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: he was the most productive with TFLs and sacks. H aggressive, violent.

78
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: I think he's the most violent pass rusher of all

79
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: the guys that are that are in this draft. And

80
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: you know he's got a lot of production. I think

81
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: that's important. You talk about the corners have production, interceptions,

82
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: past defending tackles. You talk about getting a receiver that

83
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: has touchdowns and big time plays in a big time division, right,

84
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: and then you also look at a guy that can pass, rush,

85
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: go get the quarterback, sacks, TFLs, make it, tackles behind

86
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: a lot of scrimmage. These guys check every box you want.

87
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: That's why I just feel like they got three top

88
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 1: ten players in this draft. All right, we want live

89
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: after the first two picks for our Jets over time special,

90
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: but we weren't able to get in an interview that

91
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: Caroline hundershot head with Jermaine Johnson after the six pick.

92
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: But fortunately for us here on the podcast, we're gonna

93
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 1: take a look at that right now here with Jermaine Johnson,

94
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: the New York Jets twenty six pick overall. Jermine, how

95
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: does it feel to know you got into the first

96
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: round with pick number twenty six? It feels amazing. And

97
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 1: the best part about is the Jets came and got me. Um,

98
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: Like I told everyone, it was my favorite visit on

99
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: my thirty visits and we just clicked. So I'm excited

100
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: to bring everything I have to offer to the Jets.

101
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: What does that mean? To you that the Jets traded

102
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: up to come and get you. It means everything. It

103
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: means that you're going with where you're wanted. You're not

104
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 1: just well you're the best thing left. They're like, no,

105
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,799
Speaker 1: we want him, right, So I'm going somewhere where I'm wanted,

106
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 1: and you know, vice versa. I know this has been

107
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 1: a long journey for you. You started it at Independence

108
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: Community College, went to Georgia, finally found your home at

109
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 1: Florida State. How much does it mean to you that

110
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: you've finally gotten to this point. Uh, it's it's like

111
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: kind of hitting right now. Uh So I don't know,

112
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: I'm sure to hit while I'm flying back. Um, but

113
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: it means so much, man, It's so much has been

114
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: poured into this goal, of this journey of mine. And

115
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: it's not just me either. You know, I got my

116
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: beautiful family here as well, and obviously the one up above.

117
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: So um, it's just it means a lot and it's

118
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 1: coming full circle. If you could look back and tell

119
00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: younger Jermaine what this journey would be like and how

120
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: would ended up, what would you tell him? Buckle up?

121
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: But um, it's definitely gonna be worth it. So don't

122
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: ever give up. Now, when you did your pre draft visits,

123
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: you mentioned you loved the Jets the most. What did

124
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas and Roberts Hollis say how you could fit

125
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: in with the Jets and what you could bring to

126
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: this team. It's just, uh, they really loved me at

127
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: my position. I'm not gonna lie, um, but they knew.

128
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: They see how I play football. It's very evident on

129
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,560

Speaker 1: twenty one of the the older at President of New Jersey.

159
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: If you're someone you know has a gambling problem called

160
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: one seven zero seven one one seven, How cool is that?

161
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: Jermaine Johnson's dad's family Brooklyn, Brooklyn Base, so he's got

162
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: New York connections already, coming back home, coming, back home

163
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: to the roots, all right, So he said the system

164
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: was perfect form. Great job on the interview there by

165
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: Carol Line, who did a fantastic job for us throughout

166
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: the night one here. But the wide nine. When he's

167
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: talking wide nine scheme, he's talking about the shade of

168
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: the defensive ends outside. So when you play a wide nine,

169
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: when you're lined up against the tight end, most of

170
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: the time you're in a seven technique, which is the

171
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: outside shoulder pad of that tight end. The wide nine,

172
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: you step out a whole another man and you and

173
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: you're out there wide and we played it in Detroit.

174
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: It gives a pass rusher a great angle to get

175
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: to the ball. It also forces forces the defense the

176
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: offense's hand. If you're a tight end and you're blocking

177
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: the defensive end, you have to go do it now

178
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: so now everyone else can play fast. As the safety,

179
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: I'm watching the tight end, he goes and blocks, I

180
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: know I'm coming up and run support and there's no hesitation.

181
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: So you know, it really does help you play faster

182
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: if you have the right eyes and uh. And I

183
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: think with a player like Jamaine Johnson playing that technique,

184
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna make a lot of plays. See that stats

185
00:08:55,160 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: seventy tackles for a d end like that Plar five player.

186
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: That's off the charts. Like that's a linebacker, Like you know,

187
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 1: a decent linebacker. Number seventy seventy tackles, Like, seriously, kid,

188
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: the kids a pass rusher, he could play the run.

189
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: That's a lot of production, man, I mean you can't

190
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: fake seventy tackles, you know. And and you know there's

191
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: there's a lot of talent in the A C. C.

192
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: So it's a big pick. Man. I'm telling this kid

193
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: could be special. I hope he is. All these guys

194
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: are potential the number one pick all the way down

195
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: to the last pick of the draft. But man, these

196
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 1: guys showed up in college and and this kid's gonna

197
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: be fun to watch. Well, can we talk big picture

198
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: along at the front of the line. Now, you add

199
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: Jermaine Johnson to the mix. We did not see Carl

200
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: Lawson play last year. He's coming off the Achilles, but

201
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: he was the bust player on the field here throughout

202
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: the summer. Oh yeah, so you add him on the outside.

203
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: You got John Franklin Myers. You extended him during the year.

204
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: The guy can play outside, the shift inside, and those

205
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: sub packages. You do have Quinn and Williams one of

206
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: the most talented young defensive tackles and football. Sheldon Rankin's

207
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: here as well. I mean third should be right. I

208
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: mean having those guys pass rushing and then and then

209
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: you've got guys. I mean as a defensive back, you

210
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: got those guys pass rushing. I know, if I'm Sauce,

211
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: I'm playing corner. I'm jumping everything because the quarterback only

212
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: has a little bit of time to make that decision.

213
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: And and it works hand to hand. The coverage, the

214
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: pass rush, they're gonna help each other out. Yeah, but

215
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: how about the upgrades in the secondary? Beautiful? You get

216
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: DJ Read free agency, your draft, Sauce Gardener, you had

217
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: some young cornerbacks get valuable time. Last year. We saw

218
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: Bryce Hall take some strides, Brandon Knuckles, the Jets love

219
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: Michael Carter, Javelin Gidgerey's there as a death piece as well.

220
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: I mean Jordan Whitehead signs of the safety position. You

221
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: bring back LaMarcus Joyner. Um, Yeah, folks, I'm just telling

222
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: you Whitehead was one of the best safeties in football

223
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: last year. I don't care what you the money doesn't matter,

224
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: whatever it is. I watched the kid every week. He's

225
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: one of the better safeties in the league last year.

226
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: From a great standpoint, there's a lot of great additions.

227
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see this young man. And clearly, you

228
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: know we talked six three, but to have the speed,

229
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: to have the the the instincts and the ability that

230
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: he has coming from a program that, quite honestly, alls

231
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: they've done is win. It's all he's done is win

232
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: since he's been there. And he's a football player. He

233
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: loves to come up and tackle, run support. He plays

234
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: every facet of the game, bumping and bumping, run, he

235
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: plays off coverage. You know, he comes up and run support.

236
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: He can blitz off the corner. I mean, this is

237
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: this is the guy. There's a lot of tools, there's

238
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: a lot of pieces here. People should not be sleeping

239
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: on the Jets. Maybe it's good if they're sleeping on

240
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: the Jets. I think we're going back to Vegas now

241
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: because Caroline hander Shot talked to Garrett Wilson after he

242
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: was selected here with the New York Jets number ten

243
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: overall pick. Garrett will say and Garrett, it's been a

244
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: long journey to get to this point. How does it feel?

245
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: What are the emotions running through your head right now? Yeah?

246
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 1: I mean it's so much emotion. It's honestly hard to describe. Um,

247
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, it took me a while to to really

248
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: you know, think about what what was going on and

249
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: put some good thoughts to you know. It's it's just

250
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: such a blessing. And um, you know I really haven't

251
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: as at him me yet, is what I mean by that.

252
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, what do you think got you to this

253
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: point and has allowed you to fulfill your dream of

254
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 1: playing in the NFL? Yeah, I mean the people around me. Um,

255
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: you know, I was blessed with a you know, an

256
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: ability and you know it takes a whole family to

257
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,319
Speaker 1: to get someone here, and um, you know, I was

258
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: blessed to have a family that that did that for me.

259
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: So you know, to have them here on that night

260
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: as well, Um, it was really special. But um, you

261
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,840

262
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: and the family was was there for all of it.

263
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: The bracelets you're wearing today, say, humble over hype, why

264
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: do you wear these? Yeah? Because, um, you know, I

265
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: think I think it's what I it's what I want

266
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 1: to live by. It's what I, um, you know, want

267
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: to embody. And you know, I feel like if you're humble,

268
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: you know, that can take you a long way itself.

269
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: And um, you know, I feel like I do a

270
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: pretty good job of being humble. What would you tell

271
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: the young Garrett Wilson who just fell in love with

272
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: the game of football from a young age about your

273
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: journey up until this point. Yeah, I mean I would

274
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: tell him keep going. It only gets wilder. Um. You

275
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: know I was, like, I said, I've been blessed to

276
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: play football since I was five years old, and um,

277
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: you know that this has always been my dream. And uh,

278
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: if I would guess where I was at, you know this,

279
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: this is where I would be at and it's just

280
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: such so awesome to think about. Um, I would have

281
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: told him keep going. When you talk to Joe Douglas

282
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: and Robert Saul in the pre draft process, what did

283
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: they say that you could bring to the Jets. Yeah,

284
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: you know, they liked my tape, but that they also

285
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: liked the way I approached the game. And you know,

286
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: they like the way that I that I thought about

287
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: the game. And I feel like, you know that that

288
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: had a lot to do with it. They could tell

289
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 1: that I was a football guy, and um, you know,

290
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: I think that that had a lot to do with

291
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: you know, them them taking me at ten. Maybe are

292
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: you excited to play and coach Michael Flour's offense. I'm

293
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,599
Speaker 1: really excited. Um, you know, spending some time in the

294
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: mediing room with him, you could tell, you tell that

295
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: he really loves the game. You know, he eats, eat

296
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: sleeves and drinks the game. And uh, you know, I

297
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: just can't wait to get in this offense see, you know,

298
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: and learn and just be a part of the team. Now,

299
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: how excited are you for some Wilson to Wilson receptions

300
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: from quarterback Zach Wilson. Yeah, No, I'm really excited to

00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: meet Zach Wilson and you know, start building up some chemistry.

302
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: You get out there, run some routes and um, you know,

303
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: but like I said, built our chemistry and you know,

304
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: hopefully carries into the season. You know. So I'm really

305

Speaker 1: zero seven one one seven. Good stuff from Caroline and

328
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: New Jets receiver Garrett Wilson. What are you thinking tonight.

329
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: If you're Zach Wilson, you gotta stud coming your way,

330
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: another weapon, another piece. Uh you know, Elijah Moore I

331
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: think is excited to get on the field and put

332
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: in another big year. But I think the biggest thing

333
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: for me with Wilson is you know that the kid

334
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: finds ways to get open. Not a lot of contested

335
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: catches in his game, very sharp, his receiver routes his

336
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: movements coming out of his breaks. He's getting he gets

337
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: to the end zone, which is huge. I think touchdowns,

338
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: touchdowns and thirty three games. Yeah, I mean that's I mean,

339
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: come on, man, like that's that's pretty good. So, uh

340
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: you know, he's he's he's the best receiver in the draft.

341
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: He's got to be. I mean, Jamison wins we talked

342
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: about him, if he didn't have the injury, be there,

343
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: but he's injured. So now you get a guy right

344
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: now comes on the field. Yards per catch for almost

345
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty catches over fifteen yards. That's pretty good.

346
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: So he was a study. Had a bunch of stud

347
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: receivers and tight ends on that team with him, but man,

348
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: he was the go to guy, and um, you know,

349
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: I think he's a very gifted player, and you think

350
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: he's gonna do a good job. What do you think

351
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: about what he does to this receiver group that includes

352
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: a four men of Elijah More. You got Corey Davis,

353
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: got Breakston Burials back in the mix. Denzel Mims has

354
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: been We've heard good reports from Joe Douglas about what

355
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: he's doing this offseason, but they talk about not only frontline,

356
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: but also the depth. Yeah, I mean there's a ton

357
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: of depth. Now you have an excellent route runner, another

358
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: third down weapon who can move the chains, but a

359
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: playmaker who can catch a quick slam. They can take

360
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: an eighty, a guy who can go in the red

361
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: zone and make the tough catches. Uh, someone who's just

362
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: going to who's gonna be another spark plug. And I

363
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 1: think that's just gonna motivate everyone to continue to get better.

364
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: You bring back Braxton Burrios. You know, Elijah Moore is

365
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: a young receiver who showed a ton of potential and

366
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: showed a lot of great plays that he can make.

367
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: When you add in the Garrett Wilson, it's just gonna

368
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: make everyone's game pick up and it's just gonna be

369
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: dynamic as far as what Zack Wilson can do, the

370
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: ross is really coming together because you have Linkel Thomlinson,

371
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,719
Speaker 1: who's gonna play left guard for you as a pro bowler.

372
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: Last year with the San Francisco forty Niners, you move

373
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: Elijah Vera Tucker over the right guard, you had had

374
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: a pair of tight ends. So in this offense is

375
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: predicated on the run game. Correct, Yes, security blankets, Um.

376
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: You know Zack can take some big strides. I think

377
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: it's key for him to continue to put it in

378
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: the work in the off season. Like we talked about

379
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: this on some of the shows lading under the draft,

380
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: we need see a big jump. You know. It's not

381
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: pressures on it's just that's the expectation level when you're

382
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 1: a top PIC and you're a quarterback. And there's a

383
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks in the league right now that are young,

384
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,719
Speaker 1: that are playing well. So he has now that this

385
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: offensive line they don't do another thing moving forward. Is

386
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: the top eleven twelve offensive line they should be in

387
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: my opinion. So and then it only should enhance the

388
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: run game, like you said, And let's see what else

389
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: they do in the draft here. The next couple of

390
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: days but man, if they just ended today, you'd be happy, right,

391
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: you'd be happy. Yeah? How much pressure getting this offense

392
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: put on you now? Because you do have Sama Conklin

393
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: at the tight end position, so you can you got flexibility,

394
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: versatility options from Michael Fleur, but then you got all

395
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: these receivers. And the other thing about Garrett Wilson I

396
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: love is that he played slot two thousand and twenty.

397
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: He played outside last year and he took it up

398
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: another level playing outside. But if you ever want to

399
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 1: move them, it's a hey, yeah, I mean you have

400
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,719
Speaker 1: a ton of versatility as far as what you can

401
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: do in your offense. You can go twelve personnel, split

402
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: Conklin out as a receiver because he's that athletic and

403
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: he does a great job running routes. You know, you

404
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: have Garrett Wilson, Elijah More, Uh, Corey Davis. You know,

405
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: there's so many weapons out there that you can get versatile.

406
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: And what you're doing offensively motions keep defenses on their

407
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: heels and just continue to attack. So I think you know,

408
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: you keep that run game going. You start off with

409
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 1: the run game, then you ask some sprinkles of flavor

410
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: in there, take some deep shots with all these talented receivers,

411
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: and the defenses are gonna be on their heels. Quarterback

412
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: is quarterbacks, Yeah, you keep just listen. He's gotta have

413
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: a big He's gotta have a big off season. I

414
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: mean it's gonna be big. You know, the timing getting

415
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: these guys in working with him thrown. We know he's

416
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: doing that. And I always talk about that classroom side,

417
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: you know, just you know, understanding the mistakes and the

418
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: things that you need to get better on and limiting

419
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: those things and then hit the layoups. They're gonna be

420
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: a lot of layups with these with this crew, the

421
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: layups and this is a totally different situation than when

422
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: Robert Sala took over last January. This team hasn't taken

423
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: the strides in terms of the wins and losses, but

424
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: you're seeing the roster really come together and now the

425
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: ws are gonna fall absolutely. I mean, it takes time

426
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 1: to build a culture, It takes time to put the

427
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: right pieces in position, and they're slowly doing it. You know.

428
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas has done a great job building this offensive line,

429
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: and that's where it starts at the line of scrimmage.

430
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: You know, offensively, can you dominate the line of scrimmage? Defensively?

431
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 1: Can you play in the opposing team's backfield? And then

432
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: you add the other weapons and they've got them. Uh,

433
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you. We're gonna end today, Sauce Gardner,

434
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 1: but before we get to Caroline one final time in Vegas.

435
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 1: That's how we're gonna close this pot. What do you

436
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: think about tomorrow? Now you have the overall selection, let

437
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: me throw some names at you. See if anything pops out.

438
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:07,199
Speaker 1: The Kobe Dean from Georgia, undersize linebacker, very good player,

439
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: Maleek Willis. Obviously the Jets aren't looking for a quarterback,

440
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: running back from stop right there? I mean, look, running back, safety, linebacker.

441
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: Who who's the best highest guy that's there? Uh? And

442
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: I really think if if let's just say, okay, Breece

443
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: Hall Dean, they are better than that. They're better than that.

444
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: So you're getting a better player there with all three

445
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 1: of those guys. Now, what do you need the most?

446
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Breese can do it all. Now,

447
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: he can run any scheme, he can catch. Uh, just

448
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: a super super productive and you know the last couple

449
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: of running backs has come out I was eight, are

450
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 1: still playing at a high level in the league. Uh

451
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: Montgomery and oh boy, the other guy's slipping my name,

452
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: slipping my mind right now. But you know they've they've

453
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: been really Uh. You know, these guys come in ready

454
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 1: to run because of the style of offense that they

455
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 1: have at Iowa State. Uh Nakobe Dean is like a

456
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:24,320

471
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: you're gonna looking at five guys that can help. I

472
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: remember your guy Christian Harrison. Christian Harris is still out there.

473
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: They're gonna get They're gonna get four guys that are

474
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,199
Speaker 1: that that should be starting next year. Yeah. I mean

475
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 1: when you talk about you look at guys like like

476
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: Fred Warner and Bobby Wagner, just great athletes who play

477
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: with reckless, abandoned who do a great job in the

478
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,080

479
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: one is c. J. Mosey. But you could always do

480

481
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas is going to sleep well tonight most times.

482
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: I think. I think most times after draft you're probably

483
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: a little bit charged up, and he has the right

484
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: to be charged up. But I watched him during that

485
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,439
Speaker 1: news conference in it it wasn't a cocky smile, but

486
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: you could tell he was feeling pretty good because he

487
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: just added some big time pieces to this team. I mean, yeah,

488
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: that's a home run over run. You know, he had

489
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: a home run draft last year, and that's the quarterback.

490
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: Now's turn to really complete it. But talking about a

491
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: lot of guys on the field now that we're draft picks,

494
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 1: contributions week one. I mean, that's that's the confidence I had,

495
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,000

514
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 1: the pre draft process, when you were speaking with Joe

515
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: Douglas and Robert Sala, did they give you any inclination

516
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: you were gonna go this early at number four? Now,

517
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: they weren't saying that, you know, that was just expressing

518
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: how much they liked me, you know, how much they

519
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,399

00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 1: much they like the kind of guy that I am,

521
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: you know, So it wasn't really any point they're saying,

522
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna get you at for what did they say

523
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 1: would be your fit in this team? Uh? You know,

524
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: just being able to come and be a slum, to

525
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: be able to take information from other people first of all,

526
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 1: and be a I'm a great person. So they felt

527
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: that I would be a great teammate, you know, being

528
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: able to set the top guys. Now, you know that

529
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: that's the kind of defense they played. They're like playing

530
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: a lot of man, you know, so they felt like

531
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 1: I was a great fit, a great scheme fit, you know,

532
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: and I feel that way as well. You've spoken a

533
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: lot about growing up in Detroit and overcoming that adversity.

534
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: What got you to this point? Man, Like you said,

535
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,719
Speaker 1: at adversity that intrinsic motivation. You know, I've been through

536
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: a lot of my past, you know, but I don't

537
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 1: forget about it, you know, and I just keep me going. Uh.

538
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: I just want to always be able to take care

539
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: of my mom. And the fact that I just got

540
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: drafted to the New York Jets. You know, I'm gonna

541
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: be able to accomplish that. You call yourself the chosen One?

542
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 1: Why is that? You know? Because I was always at

543
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: the bottom of the barrel, you know, since Little League

544
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: I didn't have anything. Well little League I was cool.

545
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: High School I was at the bottom of the depth chart.

546
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,119

Speaker 1: bottom of the depth chart during the fire, made the

548
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: most out of opportunity. And throughout that whole time, I

549
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 1: just kept a snarl relationship with God, you know, and

550
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,760
