WEBVTT - Breaking Down the Jets' Big First Night During the 2022 NFL Draft (4/29) 0:00:04.000 --> 0:00:07.240 Welcome to the official Pod. We are presented by Winn Bett. 0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:10.119 Betty is the team sport Butt together with bet Eric Allen, 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:15.360 Anthony Beck, Eric Coleman. The two thousand NFL Draft is underway, 0:00:15.520 --> 0:00:19.000 and it's underway in a big way for the New 0:00:19.079 --> 0:00:22.959 York Jets. How about today where in the first round 0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:26.360 they draft Sauce Gardner with number four selection. They come 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.560 back at number ten get Garrett Wilson from While State, 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:33.840 the dynamic playmaking receiver, and then Joe Douglas trades up 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:39.560 in round one Anthony and gets Jermaine Johnson, a pass 0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:42.760 rusher out of Florida State, at number overall. I really 0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:45.080 think they got three players that were top ten players. 0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:47.120 I mean, honestly, when you look at the hall that 0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:49.840 they got. You know, Joe Douglas talked about they started 0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:52.159 making calls of fifteen, which means that there was you 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.280 gotta have value for a guy to make calls of fifteen. 0:00:55.640 --> 0:00:57.200 So to me, they had him in a top ten 0:00:57.640 --> 0:00:59.280 and I think a lot of people across the league, 0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.000 you know, for whatever reason, I don't know it was 0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:03.240 just because of a need thing, but you look at 0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:06.160 those three players right there, you could have easily picked 0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:09.920 Johnson at ten and just some there was some mock 0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:13.560 drafts that having you know, four, I mean, so, uh, 0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:16.559 it's impressive. Man. You know, I'm excited. I'll be honest 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.040 with you. You You know, usually you know when you when 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:21.679 you go through the draft and the process and you 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:23.840 know you're trying to find the right pieces and you're 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:25.959 trying to get excited about different things. Well, you know, 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:27.640 one pick, you get it, and that's it. A lot 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:29.039 of teams just have one pick in the first round. 0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:30.679 You're like, all right, I got a guy. But to 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:34.880 get three guys like that that are, to me, should 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:38.840 make instant impacts for your football team, I mean instant 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:41.840 like it, they better because that's what they've shown. I mean, 0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.160 you're talking about the best defensive player in the A 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.000 c C. You're talking about arguably the best arguably the 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:51.080 best receiver in the entire draft. And then quarterwise, you know, 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:53.480 again the number one corner on the board, and in 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:55.760 a lot of people's minds, that's a heck of the hall. 0:01:56.880 --> 0:02:01.279 How about this at the beginning of that day, ending 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:05.480 news conference should be night. Ending news conference is nearly midnight. Here, 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:08.920 Robert Sala looked at the reporters, and he gave a 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.839 nod towards Joe Douglas and said, he's awesome. Oh man, 0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:17.160 it is wonderful to see the chemistry that those two have, 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:19.079 in the bond that they have and how they're on 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.720 the same page. You talk about what kind of players 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.839 that you need, uh to to change your organization. They're 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.040 bringing those guys in. They've been bringing them in. They're 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:30.000 changing the culture. They're bringing in playmakers, guys who love 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.160 the game of football. Uh. You know, listening to the 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.280 Sauce Gardner on his interviews, how humble he is, how 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.240 thankful he is to be in this position, and how 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:39.680 he can't wait to get inside the locker room and 0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.560 learn from his teammates. That's the kind of guys that 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:46.760 you need in your locker room. Hard workers, big time playmakers. 0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:49.600 You know Garrett, you know Garrett Wilson. You know another 0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:52.320 big time playmaker, guy who can run every route, who's 0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:55.799 played inside, he's played outside, he has great leaping ability. Uh. 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.360 Then you bring Johnson, uh edge rusher. You know this. 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:02.320 It was just an all around win for the Jets. 0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:05.240 A plus today they won the first round. A plus. 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:07.720 You can't give him an ayah, it's got to be 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:13.040 an A plus plus. If anybody, yeah and Guru's out 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:15.320 there don't give him an A plus, then they're they're clear. 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:18.919 They're mistake there. I don't even care if I were. 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:20.799 It's not about working for the Jets or being on 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:23.119 They get an A plus. That's what they did. Joe 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:25.520 Dougas did a great job, his staff did a great job. 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.320 And and to get Johnson at the end and make 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:31.320 those moves, I think that's all. It's wild to me 0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:34.720 that they started making those calls at fifteen and they 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:38.280 eventually got it done with that trade with Tennessee at 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:42.640 twenty six and he was still there. I mean, look, 0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:44.960 they got a bunch, and tells anybody else, I mean, 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:49.080 the kid is the best player in the a SEC. Defensively, 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:51.960 he is the most when you look at what he 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:56.440 did from from a pass rusher standpoint, outside of Hutchinson, 0:03:56.720 --> 0:04:01.640 he was the most productive with TFLs and sacks. H aggressive, violent. 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:04.000 I think he's the most violent pass rusher of all 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:07.240 the guys that are that are in this draft. And 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:09.240 you know he's got a lot of production. I think 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.440 that's important. You talk about the corners have production, interceptions, 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:16.520 past defending tackles. You talk about getting a receiver that 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:20.279 has touchdowns and big time plays in a big time division, right, 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:22.440 and then you also look at a guy that can pass, rush, 0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.839 go get the quarterback, sacks, TFLs, make it, tackles behind 0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:28.719 a lot of scrimmage. These guys check every box you want. 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:30.680 That's why I just feel like they got three top 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:32.679 ten players in this draft. All right, we want live 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:37.160 after the first two picks for our Jets over time special, 0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:40.880 but we weren't able to get in an interview that 0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:45.640 Caroline hundershot head with Jermaine Johnson after the six pick. 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:48.080 But fortunately for us here on the podcast, we're gonna 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:50.840 take a look at that right now here with Jermaine Johnson, 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:54.279 the New York Jets twenty six pick overall. Jermine, how 0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:56.600 does it feel to know you got into the first 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.039 round with pick number twenty six? It feels amazing. And 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:01.480 the best part about is the Jets came and got me. Um, 0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:03.720 Like I told everyone, it was my favorite visit on 0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:06.040 my thirty visits and we just clicked. So I'm excited 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:07.760 to bring everything I have to offer to the Jets. 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:09.839 What does that mean? To you that the Jets traded 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.279 up to come and get you. It means everything. It 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.880 means that you're going with where you're wanted. You're not 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.039 just well you're the best thing left. They're like, no, 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:19.799 we want him, right, So I'm going somewhere where I'm wanted, 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.720 and you know, vice versa. I know this has been 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.359 a long journey for you. You started it at Independence 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.080 Community College, went to Georgia, finally found your home at 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.719 Florida State. How much does it mean to you that 0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:34.440 you've finally gotten to this point. Uh, it's it's like 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:37.120 kind of hitting right now. Uh So I don't know, 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.440 I'm sure to hit while I'm flying back. Um, but 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.120 it means so much, man, It's so much has been 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:44.960 poured into this goal, of this journey of mine. And 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:46.640 it's not just me either. You know, I got my 0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.520 beautiful family here as well, and obviously the one up above. 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:52.400 So um, it's just it means a lot and it's 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:55.479 coming full circle. If you could look back and tell 0:05:55.600 --> 0:06:00.000 younger Jermaine what this journey would be like and how 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.920 would ended up, what would you tell him? Buckle up? 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.680 But um, it's definitely gonna be worth it. So don't 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:08.400 ever give up. Now, when you did your pre draft visits, 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.800 you mentioned you loved the Jets the most. What did 0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:15.200 Joe Douglas and Roberts Hollis say how you could fit 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.320 in with the Jets and what you could bring to 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.400 this team. It's just, uh, they really loved me at 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.440 my position. I'm not gonna lie, um, but they knew. 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:26.000 They see how I play football. It's very evident on 0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:29.560 film and them the Jets being uh, one of the 0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:31.919 only organizations running that defensive scheme they run in the 0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:35.440 league today, I fit it, and you know they're just 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:37.839 raving about it. And you know they're raving about not 0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:39.600 only that in my play on the field, but me 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:41.240 as a person, you know what I mean as a man? 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:43.680 That that meant everything. And I can't I can't wait 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:45.200 to just come here and give everything I got to 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.720 the Jets. When you think of New York, what comes 0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:51.040 to mind? Uh? You know, my dad's from New York. Yeah, 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.039 my dad and my dad's had of families from Brooklyn, 0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:56.520 so just kind of home. It's home now.

And gave me a a partner 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:38.200 of the New York Jets office up to the change 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.000 in terms of conditions at winbet dot Com. Must be 0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:41.520 twenty one of the the older at President of New Jersey. 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:43.200 If you're someone you know has a gambling problem called 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:46.240 one seven zero seven one one seven, How cool is that? 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:52.240 Jermaine Johnson's dad's family Brooklyn, Brooklyn Base, so he's got 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:54.640 New York connections already, coming back home, coming, back home 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:56.680 to the roots, all right, So he said the system 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:59.600 was perfect form. Great job on the interview there by 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:02.680 Carol Line, who did a fantastic job for us throughout 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.960 the night one here. But the wide nine. When he's 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:10.600 talking wide nine scheme, he's talking about the shade of 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:14.320 the defensive ends outside. So when you play a wide nine, 0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.160 when you're lined up against the tight end, most of 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:17.880 the time you're in a seven technique, which is the 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:20.760 outside shoulder pad of that tight end. The wide nine, 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.160 you step out a whole another man and you and 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:24.800 you're out there wide and we played it in Detroit. 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.400 It gives a pass rusher a great angle to get 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:32.000 to the ball. It also forces forces the defense the 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:34.880 offense's hand. If you're a tight end and you're blocking 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:36.840 the defensive end, you have to go do it now 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.400 so now everyone else can play fast. As the safety, 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:41.640 I'm watching the tight end, he goes and blocks, I 0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:44.520 know I'm coming up and run support and there's no hesitation. 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:47.640 So you know, it really does help you play faster 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.200 if you have the right eyes and uh. And I 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.880 think with a player like Jamaine Johnson playing that technique, 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:55.160 he's gonna make a lot of plays. See that stats 0:08:55.160 --> 0:09:02.240 seventy tackles for a d end like that Plar five player. 0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:05.280 That's off the charts. Like that's a linebacker, Like you know, 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:11.079 a decent linebacker. Number seventy seventy tackles, Like, seriously, kid, 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:13.240 the kids a pass rusher, he could play the run. 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.319 That's a lot of production, man, I mean you can't 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.920 fake seventy tackles, you know. And and you know there's 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:20.480 there's a lot of talent in the A C. C. 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:23.000 So it's a big pick. Man. I'm telling this kid 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.520 could be special. I hope he is. All these guys 0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:27.560 are potential the number one pick all the way down 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.160 to the last pick of the draft. But man, these 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.959 guys showed up in college and and this kid's gonna 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:33.800 be fun to watch. Well, can we talk big picture 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:36.040 along at the front of the line. Now, you add 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.480 Jermaine Johnson to the mix. We did not see Carl 0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:42.440 Lawson play last year. He's coming off the Achilles, but 0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:45.760 he was the bust player on the field here throughout 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.760 the summer. Oh yeah, so you add him on the outside. 0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:52.200 You got John Franklin Myers. You extended him during the year. 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:55.240 The guy can play outside, the shift inside, and those 0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:58.880 sub packages. You do have Quinn and Williams one of 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:02.960 the most talented young defensive tackles and football. Sheldon Rankin's 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:07.800 here as well. I mean third should be right. I 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:10.280 mean having those guys pass rushing and then and then 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.240 you've got guys. I mean as a defensive back, you 0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:14.920 got those guys pass rushing. I know, if I'm Sauce, 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:18.160 I'm playing corner. I'm jumping everything because the quarterback only 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.680 has a little bit of time to make that decision. 0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:23.200 And and it works hand to hand. The coverage, the 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:25.360 pass rush, they're gonna help each other out. Yeah, but 0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:28.880 how about the upgrades in the secondary? Beautiful? You get 0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:33.920 DJ Read free agency, your draft, Sauce Gardener, you had 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.560 some young cornerbacks get valuable time. Last year. We saw 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:41.600 Bryce Hall take some strides, Brandon Knuckles, the Jets love 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:45.880 Michael Carter, Javelin Gidgerey's there as a death piece as well. 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:49.240 I mean Jordan Whitehead signs of the safety position. You 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:56.160 bring back LaMarcus Joyner. Um, Yeah, folks, I'm just telling 0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:58.840 you Whitehead was one of the best safeties in football 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.120 last year. I don't care what you the money doesn't matter, 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:03.880 whatever it is. I watched the kid every week. He's 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:05.760 one of the better safeties in the league last year. 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.720 From a great standpoint, there's a lot of great additions. 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:12.520 I'm excited to see this young man. And clearly, you 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:15.640 know we talked six three, but to have the speed, 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:19.160 to have the the the instincts and the ability that 0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:21.959 he has coming from a program that, quite honestly, alls 0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:24.120 they've done is win. It's all he's done is win 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:27.000 since he's been there. And he's a football player. He 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:29.880 loves to come up and tackle, run support. He plays 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.640 every facet of the game, bumping and bumping, run, he 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.200 plays off coverage. You know, he comes up and run support. 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:37.280 He can blitz off the corner. I mean, this is 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:40.680 this is the guy. There's a lot of tools, there's 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.640 a lot of pieces here. People should not be sleeping 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:45.400 on the Jets. Maybe it's good if they're sleeping on 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:48.040 the Jets. I think we're going back to Vegas now 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:53.679 because Caroline hander Shot talked to Garrett Wilson after he 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:58.400 was selected here with the New York Jets number ten 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.360 overall pick. Garrett will say and Garrett, it's been a 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:03.760 long journey to get to this point. How does it feel? 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.120 What are the emotions running through your head right now? Yeah? 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:09.839 I mean it's so much emotion. It's honestly hard to describe. Um, 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:11.600 you know, it took me a while to to really 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.920 you know, think about what what was going on and 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:16.720 put some good thoughts to you know. It's it's just 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.800 such a blessing. And um, you know I really haven't 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:21.640 as at him me yet, is what I mean by that. 0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:24.600 So yeah, what do you think got you to this 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.000 point and has allowed you to fulfill your dream of 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.439 playing in the NFL? Yeah, I mean the people around me. Um, 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:32.520 you know, I was blessed with a you know, an 0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.880 ability and you know it takes a whole family to 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:36.319 to get someone here, and um, you know, I was 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.160 blessed to have a family that that did that for me. 0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:40.080 So you know, to have them here on that night 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:42.480 as well, Um, it was really special. But um, you 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:44.840 know a lot of a lot of long days, you know, 0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:46.520 and the family was was there for all of it. 0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:49.840 The bracelets you're wearing today, say, humble over hype, why 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:52.240 do you wear these? Yeah? Because, um, you know, I 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:54.439 think I think it's what I it's what I want 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:56.839 to live by. It's what I, um, you know, want 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.000 to embody. And you know, I feel like if you're humble, 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:01.440 you know, that can take you a long way itself. 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:02.920 And um, you know, I feel like I do a 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:05.360 pretty good job of being humble. What would you tell 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:07.760 the young Garrett Wilson who just fell in love with 0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:10.280 the game of football from a young age about your 0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:12.640 journey up until this point. Yeah, I mean I would 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:15.480 tell him keep going. It only gets wilder. Um. You 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:17.480 know I was, like, I said, I've been blessed to 0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:20.280 play football since I was five years old, and um, 0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:22.880 you know that this has always been my dream. And uh, 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:24.920 if I would guess where I was at, you know this, 0:13:24.920 --> 0:13:26.320 this is where I would be at and it's just 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:28.520 such so awesome to think about. Um, I would have 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.600 told him keep going. When you talk to Joe Douglas 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:34.240 and Robert Saul in the pre draft process, what did 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:36.680 they say that you could bring to the Jets. Yeah, 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:40.000 you know, they liked my tape, but that they also 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.480 liked the way I approached the game. And you know, 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:44.360 they like the way that I that I thought about 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.000 the game. And I feel like, you know that that 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:47.400 had a lot to do with it. They could tell 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.320 that I was a football guy, and um, you know, 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:50.840 I think that that had a lot to do with 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.880 you know, them them taking me at ten. Maybe are 0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:56.480 you excited to play and coach Michael Flour's offense. I'm 0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:58.599 really excited. Um, you know, spending some time in the 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:00.880 mediing room with him, you could tell, you tell that 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:02.679 he really loves the game. You know, he eats, eat 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:04.840 sleeves and drinks the game. And uh, you know, I 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:06.680 just can't wait to get in this offense see, you know, 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:09.600 and learn and just be a part of the team.

Yeah, No, I'm really excited to 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.240 meet Zach Wilson and you know, start building up some chemistry. 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:21.200 You get out there, run some routes and um, you know, 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:23.600 but like I said, built our chemistry and you know, 0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:25.480 hopefully carries into the season.

Good stuff from Caroline and 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:28.800 New Jets receiver Garrett Wilson. What are you thinking tonight. 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:33.880 If you're Zach Wilson, you gotta stud coming your way, 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:37.440 another weapon, another piece. Uh you know, Elijah Moore I 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:40.120 think is excited to get on the field and put 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.800 in another big year. But I think the biggest thing 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:46.680 for me with Wilson is you know that the kid 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:50.080 finds ways to get open. Not a lot of contested 0:15:50.160 --> 0:15:55.360 catches in his game, very sharp, his receiver routes his 0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:58.680 movements coming out of his breaks. He's getting he gets 0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:02.000 to the end zone, which is huge. I think touchdowns, 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:05.320 touchdowns and thirty three games. Yeah, I mean that's I mean, 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:08.440 come on, man, like that's that's pretty good. So, uh 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:11.640 you know, he's he's he's the best receiver in the draft. 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:13.520 He's got to be. I mean, Jamison wins we talked 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:15.840 about him, if he didn't have the injury, be there, 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:17.720 but he's injured. So now you get a guy right 0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:21.160 now comes on the field. Yards per catch for almost 0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:23.800 a hundred and fifty catches over fifteen yards. That's pretty good. 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:26.400 So he was a study. Had a bunch of stud 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:29.080 receivers and tight ends on that team with him, but man, 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:31.720 he was the go to guy, and um, you know, 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:33.200 I think he's a very gifted player, and you think 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:34.440 he's gonna do a good job. What do you think 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:38.000 about what he does to this receiver group that includes 0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:40.680 a four men of Elijah More. You got Corey Davis, 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:44.440 got Breakston Burials back in the mix. Denzel Mims has 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:48.000 been We've heard good reports from Joe Douglas about what 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:51.440 he's doing this offseason, but they talk about not only frontline, 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:54.160 but also the depth. Yeah, I mean there's a ton 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:57.160 of depth. Now you have an excellent route runner, another 0:16:57.560 --> 0:16:59.880 third down weapon who can move the chains, but a 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:02.400 playmaker who can catch a quick slam. They can take 0:17:02.400 --> 0:17:04.160 an eighty, a guy who can go in the red 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:07.040 zone and make the tough catches. Uh, someone who's just 0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:10.080 going to who's gonna be another spark plug. And I 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:12.880 think that's just gonna motivate everyone to continue to get better. 0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:16.480 You bring back Braxton Burrios. You know, Elijah Moore is 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:20.119 a young receiver who showed a ton of potential and 0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:22.200 showed a lot of great plays that he can make. 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.520 When you add in the Garrett Wilson, it's just gonna 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:27.159 make everyone's game pick up and it's just gonna be 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:29.480 dynamic as far as what Zack Wilson can do, the 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.480 ross is really coming together because you have Linkel Thomlinson, 0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:34.719 who's gonna play left guard for you as a pro bowler. 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:37.720 Last year with the San Francisco forty Niners, you move 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:41.560 Elijah Vera Tucker over the right guard, you had had 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:46.240 a pair of tight ends. So in this offense is 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:49.960 predicated on the run game. Correct, Yes, security blankets, Um. 0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:52.720 You know Zack can take some big strides. I think 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:54.800 it's key for him to continue to put it in 0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:56.720 the work in the off season. Like we talked about 0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:58.840 this on some of the shows lading under the draft, 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:01.919 we need see a big jump. You know. It's not 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:04.520 pressures on it's just that's the expectation level when you're 0:18:04.520 --> 0:18:06.639 a top PIC and you're a quarterback. And there's a 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:08.640 lot of quarterbacks in the league right now that are young, 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.719 that are playing well. So he has now that this 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:16.040 offensive line they don't do another thing moving forward. Is 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:19.560 the top eleven twelve offensive line they should be in 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.240 my opinion. So and then it only should enhance the 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:24.600 run game, like you said, And let's see what else 0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:26.359 they do in the draft here. The next couple of 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:30.359 days but man, if they just ended today, you'd be happy, right, 0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:33.960 you'd be happy. Yeah? How much pressure getting this offense 0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:39.480 put on you now? Because you do have Sama Conklin 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:43.320 at the tight end position, so you can you got flexibility, 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:47.000 versatility options from Michael Fleur, but then you got all 0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:49.720 these receivers. And the other thing about Garrett Wilson I 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.879 love is that he played slot two thousand and twenty. 0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:56.119 He played outside last year and he took it up 0:18:56.160 --> 0:18:59.399 another level playing outside. But if you ever want to 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:03.199 move them, it's a hey, yeah, I mean you have 0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:05.719 a ton of versatility as far as what you can 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:08.800
