1
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: For the second straight day. The Jets have locked up

2
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: one of their young stars for the long haul. But

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 1: what does getting Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner's deals done

4
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,680

Speaker 1: newcomers to the NFC East. Hooka Nakua has a new

12

Speaker 1: running mate with the Rams, and you won't want to

13
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: miss what Pooka has to say about Devonte adams potential

17
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: I am Tom Pelisero. Fifty one days now out from

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,559
Speaker 1: the kickoff to the twenty twenty five season, all thirty

19
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: two teams will have reported the training camp by the

20
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: middle of next week, starting with the Chargers tomorrow. There's

21
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: still a lot of off field business to take care

22
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: of before then. Except for the Jets, they have officially

23
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: finished basically everything on the old to do list for

24
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: the second second of day, that is where we begin

25
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: in Flora Park, where a day after they got Garrett

26
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: Wilson's Monster Extension done, step right up Sauce Gardner. It

27
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: is a four year, one hundred and twenty point four

28
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: million dollar contact extension ian that ties Sauce to the

29
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: Jets through twenty thirty and locks up another one of

30
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: those core players and they hope leaders that's going to

31
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: take this new regime forward.

32
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. A huge, huge day, really huge week

33
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 2: for the New York Jets, and so much of what

34
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: we've done over the course of the last I would

35
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 2: say decade or so, over the Jets has been talk

36
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 2: about all their issues, right, I mean, it's whether it's

37
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: during training, camper, during the season, or leading up to training, camper,

38
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: holdouts of contracts, or things that can't get done. It's

39
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: really been about when are the Jets going to do

40
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: what they're supposed to do? Well, they did it. They

41
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,119
Speaker 2: did everything they're supposed to do. Everything their fans would

42
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: want them to do everything that's prudent for a really

43
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: good organization. They took care of their really good homegrown players.

44
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 2: You mentioned Garrett Wilson yesterday. Today it was Sauce Gardener

45
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: with a four year, one hundred and twenty point four

46
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 2: million dollars deal, eighty five million dollars plus in guarantees,

47
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 2: thirteen point seventy five million dollars signing Monus. There was

48
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 2: no doubt that he was going to come in, just

49
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 2: over Derek Stingley. Of course, the Texans star corner. He

50
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: does so differently structured contract, but either way, Sauce Garterer

51
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 2: now the highest paid corner in the NFL an excellent

52
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 2: day to be him.

53
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: Four year extensions for both those players, they had two

54
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: years left remaining on their original rookie contracts. So sometimes

55
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: in those situations, teams are going to play it out,

56
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: say hey, we got you for two more years, plus

57
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: we've got franchise tags and all that. But if you

58
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: get in early and if you hit on those deals,

59
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: potentially you actually save your self money by investing, especially

60
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: in the market like cornerback that continues to explode. Speaking

61
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: of franchise tags, Tray Smith got one he had already signed.

62
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: It would have been worth around twenty three million dollars,

63
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: but he in just hours before the deadline for Tray Smith,

64
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: and only Tray Smith because he was the only franchise

65
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: tag player left to sign a multi year deal, the

66
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: Chiefs got the deal done.

67
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, Tray Smith is going to be the highest paid

68
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 2: guard in the NFL, no matter what, whether on the

69
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 2: twenty three plus million dollar franchise Tag or whether on

70
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: a new contract extension. But what everyone wanted was the

71
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: contract extension from Tray Smith, who wanted to be locked

72
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: up long term. And in fact, that is exactly what happened.

73
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 2: Four years ninety four million dollar deal that has now

74
00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: been agreed to seventy million dollars in guarantees and ill

75
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: done by Tory Dandy and Jimmy Sexitt of CIA. It

76
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 2: is something that for Tray Smith he has been working toward.

77
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 2: In no doubt, when there were all these discussions about

78
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: blood Cutts and how many teams were not passing him

79
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: in the draft and him going in the sixth round

80
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 2: intead of the first round was probably a day that

81
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 2: Tray Smith never thought was coming. It came today a great, huge,

82
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 2: deal for him in a great, huge deal for the

83
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: guard market and for the Chiefs. What they have done

84
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: is lock up all their really good offensive lineman. Obviously

85
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 2: traded Joe Toon in the offseason in part to be

86
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 2: able to do this deal. Creed Humphrey now highest paid center,

87
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: Trey Smith highest paid guard by a lot, No wonder.

88
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes was tweeting the smiley face emojis. It's a

89
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 2: great debut to be Mahomes. And then for the Chiefs

90
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 2: they get a little salary cap space just for the

91
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: just for locking up their guy.

92
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: A lot of millions of dollars flying around in the

93
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: days leading up to training camp. None of those yet

94
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: have fallen into the bank account of one Terry mcclaurin,

95
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl wide receiver for the Commanders. We spoke

96
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: to reporters today after shooting a commercial for Valley Forge

97
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: Auto excuse me, Eastern Automotive. Talked about his contract situation

98
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: and sure does not sound happy with the progress. I've

99
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:12,799
Speaker 1: been pretty frustrated.

100
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie, you know, everything that has transpirted

101
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 3: up to this point is just been disappointing and frustrating.

102
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 3: You know, I've wanted to continue my career here. I've

103
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 3: created my life here. You know, my wife and I

104
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 3: have bought our first home here. So this has been

105
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 3: somewhere where I've always wanted to be. I haven't decided

106
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: that yet. I'm trying to take things day by day,

107
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 3: and you know, I think that's the the disappointing part

108
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 3: where I was hoping up until this point things would

109
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: clear up a lot more than they have. And so

110
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 3: I haven't made that decision yet, and I'm just want

111
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 3: to see how the rest of this week goes and

112
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 3: take it day by day.

113
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin turns thirty in September Ian But if you

114
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: just put side by side blind taste test style, his

115
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: numbers versus Garrett Wilson's numbers very similar stats with fewer targets.

116
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: For Terry McLaurin. We now live in an age where

117
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: the receivers who are getting twenty million dollars a year

118
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: just a few years ago, all of a sudden, those

119
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: twenty million dollar players are thirty million dollar players. There

120
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: in lies the issue. He's do about twenty million dollar

121
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: dollars on his contract this season, probably the last big

122
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: contract he can get, and to this point, Ian, it's

123
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: subundantly clear the sides. You're not seeing eye.

124
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 2: To eye, not seeing out of eye yet. And you know,

125
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 2: rarely do we see deals done on July fifteenth or

126
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 2: July fourteenth. We saw three huge deals done over the

127
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 2: past two days. Usually right up against the start of

128
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: training camp is when these things really kick in the

129
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 2: gear and when the deadlines end up creating deals. The

130
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 2: commanders are not there. So just because Terry McCain is

131
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 2: not of a new contract yet doesn't mean he is

132
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 2: not going to get a new contract. You mentioned some

133
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: of the numbers, minuderstand he wants to be in the thirties,

134
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: and judging by his stats, thirties makes sense. And the

135
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: fact that Garrett Wilson on his first big deal obviously

136
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: much younger than Terry McLaurin, but on his first big

137
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: deal got more than thirty two million dollars per year

138
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: based on new money, you think that would be good

139
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 2: news for McLaurin. We also know that he is pretty serious, right,

140
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 2: I mean, he was not there at a mandatory mini camp.

141
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 2: He spoke today to reporters, many many local reporters and

142
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 2: some other people who are there to listen to his words,

143
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: he sounds serious. He is obviously not happy. Commanders want

144
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 2: to get this done. You really do have to think, Tom,

145
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 2: this will get done in time. But these receiver deals

146
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: are getting to a point where they.

147
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: Are so massive.

148
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 2: Teams have to make absolutely sure you want to lock

149
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: a guy up before you do so.

150
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: Commanders veterans, like most teams, veteran players set to report

151
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: to training camp one week from today. As McLaurin put it,

152
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: it is crunch time and the sides have not talked

153
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: in more than a month. We got more rookies reporting

154
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: to training camp this week, six more teams in the

155
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: building earlier today. There are some some players that are

156
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: not there yet, mostly second round draft picks. More on

157
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: that a little bit later on, but right now, let's

158
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: dive into some of the guys that we do expect

159
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: to see on the field in training camp. As our

160
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: guy Cameron Wolf joins the show, let's start right down

161
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: there where you are camp in Miami. Give me a

162
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: name that you're excited to watch when we get to

163
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: training camp, and if this is who I think it is,

164
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: I'm going to let you pronounce his last name.

165
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing Jonah Savi and Naya

166
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 4: their guard they drafted in the second round coming in

167
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 4: for Miami. Look, this is a Dolphins team that we

168
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 4: know the issues can they have the physicality and toughness.

169
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 5: In December and January, they.

170
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 4: Spent their first two picks on offense and defensive linemans.

171
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 4: And I want to focus on Jonah because this is

172
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 4: a team that was six in the NFL and rushing

173
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 4: first and yards per carry in twenty twenty three fell

174
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 4: to the bottom twelve in each category, mostly because of

175
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 4: guard play. They expect Jonah to be a plug in

176
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 4: day one starter, so he's got to come out in.

177
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 5: Training camp and contribute.

178
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 4: You don't learn a lot about offensive lineman and ota

179
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 4: as you do in training camp.

180
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 5: And Tom, you just mentioned it earlier.

181
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 4: He's one of those second round picks that is still unsigned,

182
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 4: thirty of thirty two one signed. I know you'll talk

183
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 4: about it later, but he's got to be out there

184
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 4: on the field for him to get that chemistry. The

185
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 4: Dolphins need to run the ball and protect Tua and

186
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 4: hopefully perform better in the winter months.

187
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: He's the thirty seventh overall picked picks thirty three and

188
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: thirty four got fully guaranteed contracts. One of many things

189
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: to watch. We still have time to go until the

190
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 1: veterans report. For a lot of these teams, let's stay

191
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 1: there in the AFC East. We know what Buffalo did.

192
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: It was defense, defense, defense, But which defender, Cameron, are

193
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: you most excited to see?

194
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm going to switch it up a little bit

195
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 4: and focus on their third round pick, Landon Jackson, the

196
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 4: edge rusher out of Arkansas. I'll talk with their general manager,

197
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 4: Brandon Bean after the draft, and he said, look, we

198
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 4: think we got three impact players in our first three to.

199
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 5: Four picks that can contribute right now.

200
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 4: He thinks they have enough on the edge, and Landon

201
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 4: Jackson was a very productive rusher in college. I was

202
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 4: there at that AFC championship game the Bills lost to

203
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 4: the Chiefs, and the one thing they had missed and

204
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 4: they continue have missed year after year, is that guy

205
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 4: who can sack Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jackson late in

206
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 4: games to finally get a stop. They hope land and

207
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 4: Jackson can develop into that. Of course, we know they

208
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 4: signed Joey Bosa. He's already dealing with a soft tissue

209
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 4: injury and so a guy like Landon Jackson could be

210
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 4: asked to contribute a lot early.

211
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 5: I know they like him a lot. He had a

212
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 5: really good spring.

213
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 4: And now I'm eager to watch him and how he

214
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 4: goes against Dion Dawkins and that elite offensive line in

215
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 4: training camp with the Pads.

216
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 1: On land and Jackson also a standout at Senior Bowl practices.

217
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: Did deal with some injuries in college. He's actually starting

218
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: out on the physically able to perform list. Never fair

219
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: in training camp, the active pup list. You can come

220
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: off that at any time. How about Baltimore CAM They've

221
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,439
Speaker 1: been one of the best drafting teams for a long

222
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: long time. What do you get your eye on?

223
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't wait to see Malachi Starks out there

224
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 4: in Baltimore, their first round pick. He's a guy who

225
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 4: was an elite playmaker college, a guy who can play everywhere.

226
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 4: He played fifteen hundred snaps at safety, another five hundred

227
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 4: snaps at slot cornerback, and I love what he can

228
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 4: do for defensive coordinator Zach Orr in this defense, they

229
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 4: were the best defense in the NFL in the second

230
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 4: half of the year. When they move Kyle Hamilton to

231
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 4: deep safety, now you've got Malachai Starks, who can play deep,

232
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 4: who can place a slot, and so he allows.

233
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 5: You to do a lot of different things.

234
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 4: For Kyle Hamilton, this Ravens defense is ready to get

235
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 4: back to that nastiness that we know them for.

236
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 5: And I can't wait to see the elusiveness.

237
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 4: Or can use using Hamilton and Starks in different ways

238
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 4: for this defense. They are also got JII Alexander to

239
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 4: add with Marlon Humphrey, this Ravens defense could be really

240
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 4: special in twenty twenty five and we're going to see

241
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 4: him early in camp.

242
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: Melock Hi. Stark's also one of those guys who can

243
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: light up a room. A met him at Draft week

244
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: in Green Bay. He is one of those guys from

245
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: a culture perspective, knowing how Baltimore wants to build. Was

246
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: a natural fit. Cam. Thank you very much. We will

247
00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: talk to you again soon. Week from today, the Rams

248
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: will be reporting to Maui. No just kidding, that was

249
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: for mini camp. They will be back in California as

250
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: training camp launches one week from today. A lot of

251
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: new look parts on that offense, including DeVante Adams. For

252
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: one guy that you know is Nol. Main stay with

253
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: the Rams is our next guess it is poka nakula poka.

254
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: Seven more days. Man, this is it for you for vacation.

255
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: Tell me where your mind, your brain, your body is at.

256
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 6: At this point, my body feels fantastic. I can't wait

257
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 6: to see the guys. I'm like, I just want to

258
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 6: see Matthew Stafford spin it. I'm like, that's my favorite

259
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 6: part of the day. As soon as their first practice

260
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 6: comes out and you see that boss spinning right, and

261
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 6: I'm like, all things.

262
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 7: Will be well in the world.

263
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 2: You know, obviously for some of the offseason there was

264
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 2: some uncertainty surrounding Stafford, probably more so this year than

265
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 2: ever before. You probably know as well as anyone why

266
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: he is so good. You talked about the way he

267
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 2: spends it. When you get the news that Stafford's definitely

268
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 2: coming back, I when you kind of get into get

269
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 2: into the offseason, do you get reminded of just how

270
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: good of a football he throws?

271
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 7: One hundred percent. We were just throwing routes.

272
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 6: And he has his quarterback coach that comes out to

273
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 6: our facility and we're out there running routes and he's like,

274
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 6: oh my gosh, Like I was just training this other guy,

275
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 6: and he just wouldn't believe how different the ball looks

276
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 6: come out of Matthew Stafford's hand.

277
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 7: I'm like, he wears that armsleeve.

278
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 6: Because he's protecting that can and he's gone on that

279
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 6: right arm anywhere on the football field he can put

280
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 6: the ball. I'm like with the coach mcvaiy, he calls

281
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 6: him long handoffs. We have forty five yard handoffs coming

282
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 6: from Matthew Stafford, So that's pretty cool.

283
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: I love that we have the Matthew Stafford SlowMo video too.

284
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: Right there on que hitting you on a deep ball.

285
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: That wide receiver room is going to look different, right,

286
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams in Cooper Cupp who you had a close

287
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: relationship with over the past couple of years. Moving on

288
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: now to Seattle, how of it all do you envision

289
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: that group and your passing offense in general being different

290
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five.

291
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 7: It's definitely gonna be different.

292
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 6: DeVante, as soon as he's stepped into the facility has

293
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 6: been fantastic. The ability to learn the game from another

294
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 6: all time great has been I feel like I'm stealing out.

295
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 6: I'm like a kid in the candy store. I'm like

296
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 6: I've had Matthew Stafford, Sean McVay, Cooper Cup and now

297
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 6: DeVante Adams. I'm like, my life is pretty good. I

298
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 6: can't complain too much and it's gonna be fun. We

299
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 6: signed two two back, we got some speed, we got

300
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 6: a bunch of young guys who are excited to play,

301
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 6: and seventeen is going to lead.

302
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 7: The way for us and it's.

303
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 6: Going to be fantastic to be out there on the

304
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 6: football field with him.

305
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: So you talk about learning from Devonte, I mean you

306
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: are obviously a veteran. You have done it at the

307
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: highest level for several years already. What specifically can you

308
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 2: learn from him? Is it route running? Is it how

309
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: to read a defender, Like what kind of goes on

310
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 2: when when he's saying like, all right, take a look

311
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: at this or take a look at that.

312
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 7: I'd say it's definitely route running.

313
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 6: His ability to change to change pace while he's moving

314
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 6: on the football field, the ability to win against negative leverage,

315
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 6: his suddenness at the line of scrimmage. It's fantastic to

316
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 6: see and be able to see it in person and

317
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 6: be lining up right next to him.

318
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 7: It.

319
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 6: Make sure you have all the gas turned on when

320
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 6: you're going out there with number seventeen, so.

321
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 7: It's super fun.

322
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 6: And yeah, I think when you watch him win against

323
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 6: negative leverage, it gives you confidence. You start trying new things,

324
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 6: you start working different techniques. His ability to move defenders

325
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 6: at all over the football field is very awesome to

326
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 6: see and I can't wait to see you live at action.

327
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: Hoogi started off by saying that your body feels great

328
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: right now. I would imagine that was not the case

329
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: for a big chunk of last season. Me and Ian

330
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: are the insiders. There are multiple times where we're sitting

331
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: there watching games, going, oh no, this looks really bad

332
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: for broken to cool. You continue to push through through

333
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: the course of last season, but how hampered were you?

334
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: How hard is it to get on the field, and

335
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: how much better do you feel? Right now?

336
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 6: I feel fantastic. We're in July. Right now, this is

337
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 6: probably then be the best I feel for the rest

338
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 6: of the year. So I take advantage of these moments

339
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 6: because they don't last too long. You started getting in

340
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 6: the training camp and you started hitting all these big guys,

341
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 6: and like Joe, I'm gonna see Nick Bosa twice a

342
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 6: year and I'm gonna so I got to make sure

343
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 6: I feel good from now all the way to February.

344
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 7: So but it was it was about last year. Every

345
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 7: every season is a grind.

346
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 6: There are so many different bumps and bruises you go

347
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 6: out throughout the season. But I think the Rams training

348
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 6: staff are keeping me safe because I just want to

349
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 6: be out there and play football on Sundays.

350
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 2: You know, we talked about the different way that you know,

351
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: how different your receiver room will look, and you know,

352
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 2: the whole team seems to take on a little bit

353
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 2: of a different vibe. I mean, last year it felt,

354
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 2: especially at the beginning of the year, like a little

355
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 2: bit of a transition year. Does not feel like that.

356
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: Now.

357
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: You guys are kind of kind of locked and loaded

358
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: and seem to be really really talented. What's the optimism

359
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 2: level for you going into training camp in the season.

360
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 6: I think it's super exciting. We got a bunch of

361
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 6: younger on the defensive side of the ball who keep

362
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 6: practice interesting for sure, and it's so exciting to go

363
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 6: against them and to find the nuance of moving back

364
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 6: out on the football field and seeing everybody communicate and

365
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 6: try to be on the same page and push our

366
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 6: defense to the limits. So it's fun to be able

367
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 6: to watch them combine all of their skills together and

368
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 6: communicate so everybody's on the same page.

369
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 7: And then it's.

370
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 6: Also even more fun to be in the offensive meetings

371
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 6: with coach McVay and coach the floor because they're cooking

372
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 6: up the best plays possible. So we're making our defense

373
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 6: sweat for sure. The motions, the routes. Davante's coming in

374
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 6: with new things that we're thinking about. Matthew wants to say,

375
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:39,439
Speaker 6: I want to put the ball on this part of

376
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 6: the field. So the trifecta that we have of great

377
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 6: football minds is keeping everything super interesting.

378
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: So Puka, we know from the backdrop and the towel

379
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: on your head here you're working with Gatorade right now.

380
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 1: You are the Gatorade player of the Year back in

381
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: high school in twenty eighteen. I had to go and

382
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 1: find your stats. Okay, this is with the Orum Tigers

383
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: in Utah. One hundred and three catches for two three

384
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: and thirty six yards and twenty six touchdowns.

385
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:08,719
Speaker 7: In that season.

386
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: How did you put up numbers like that at a

387
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: fourteen game high school schedule? And what does it mean

388
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 1: to be on this unique list of people who have

389
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: won that award.

390
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 6: I think it's one of the greatest feelings when I

391
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 6: go back to my high school and you see the

392
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 6: banner and it says my name. I had a teammate,

393
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 6: noahsu who plays for the Bears, who ended up winning

394
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 6: it the year after me as well.

395
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 7: So to have that listen.

396
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 6: To represent my football career is such a blessing. And

397
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 6: it's funny because now I get to represent Gatoray. This

398
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 6: is me on the sideline. You can check all eighteen

399
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 6: games from last season. As soon as after any touchdown,

400
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 6: after any play, I got.

401
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 7: My towel on.

402
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 6: I got my Gatoray towel after like hoody mellow. So

403
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 6: I'm like, I'm getting into my demon time and I'm

404
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 6: rocking and I'm playing. So it is a blessing to

405
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 6: be that and I when I go back to my

406
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 6: high school and I get to see that banner, it

407
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 6: takes me back to good times.

408
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 2: So you are obviously a Gatorade guy through and through.

409
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 2: As you just discussed, how important is it for a

410
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 2: young athlete, maybe like you were back in the day,

411
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 2: to understand the science between hydration and why.

412
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 5: Gay raid works.

413
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 6: I think it took me definitely a couple of years

414
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 6: to figure it out. But just recently we had the

415
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 6: Gatoray testers come and they do the sweat test for us,

416
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 6: and they give you the information that allows you to

417
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 6: have success at practice because everything starts at practice. Everybody

418
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 6: they have the cameras, the TVs are on on Sundays,

419
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 6: but Tuesday or Wednesday through Saturday, those are the days

420
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 6: that you need to have everything on the schedule and

421
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 6: you have a prepared when you're out there running routes.

422
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 6: They have the amount of Gatoray that you need to

423
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 6: be having. They're giving you the water and it allows

424
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 6: you to have success. So when Sunday comes around, you're

425
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 6: ready to roll and you feel fresh, hydrated and recovered

426
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 6: so you can.

427
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 7: Go out there and have the best performance.

428
00:19:55,400 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 6: So I'm blessed because I think Glacier free only on

429
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 6: game Like my game day.

430
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 7: Gatorade bottle has nothing but Glacier freezing it. They don't

431
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 7: even give me any water, it's just streak either eight.

432
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: To wait to say hold on. If they hand you

433
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,719
Speaker 1: the bottle and it's got like the the berry, the

434
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: red one, you just go like, I can't do this.

435
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: You need to get me glacier freeze done.

436
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 7: No chance they would bring me a red one. They

437
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 7: wouldn't do that to me on game day. I would

438
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 7: mess up the energy wed with me all that.

439
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 1: I'm a blue guy myself. Pooka, thanks a time for

440
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: being your man. We really appreciate best luck. Stay healthy

441
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: out there. We'll talk to you again soon.

442
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 7: Thank you so much. We'll see you guys on Sunday.

443
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 8: I see you.

444
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: Thanks, Thank you, Rams and Texans. That's the Week one kickoff.

445
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have a pretty interesting couple of months ahead

446
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: of them as well. We forged Ceedee Lamb in the

447
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: building for training camp this time around. Nargae and Slater

448
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: will join us next to talk about that new look

449
00:20:52,200 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: receiver room, new coaching staff, all things new with the Cowboys, Giants,

450
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 1: rookies among six teams that reported today, which means that

451
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: Jackson Dart will no longer be throwing passes to somebody

452
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: who it appears either falls or dives off the back

453
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: of that jet ski. That would probably be ruled an

454
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: incomplete pass. You need two feet on the jet ski,

455
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: not one. This is the pros, young man. Take a

456
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 1: look at the rest of the reporting dates for the

457
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: NFC East Like most teams, everybody coming in next week.

458
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: Cowboys getting a one day advance on that with the

459
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 1: full team reporting now talks in our California on July twenty.

460
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: First are Jane Slater. Surely we'll be joining them sometime

461
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: shortly thereafter, but first she joins us right here on

462
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: the Insiders, Jane, I think every segment you were on

463
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 1: last year at this time it was Ceedee Lamb, Where

464
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: is he, what's he doing? What kind of shape is he?

465
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: And what are we going to get the contract? We

466
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: don't have CD drama this time around. We do have

467
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: CD and George Pickens and what that want wide receiver

468
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: room is going to look like? What do you expect?

469
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 9: Oh, don't worry. We'll be talking about Mica Parsons and

470
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 9: where that contract is soon enough. But you know, it's interesting, Tom.

471
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 9: Last year there was a lot of talk about the crowds.

472
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 9: The crowds seemed off. I tend to think somebody that

473
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 9: had to do with just when they were out there

474
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 9: when school starts in Texas and economics, But you honestly

475
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 9: can't ignore the fact that Cedee Lamb wasn't out there.

476
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 9: You also had questions about your run game. So let's

477
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 9: say what have the Cowboys done to address both these areas.

478
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 9: I'll start with the wide receivers. You've got Ceedee Lamb back,

479
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 9: and after he got that extension last year, he had

480
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 9: a big, big season. I mean we're talking about I believe.

481
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 9: Let's see, he led the league interceptions, he set a

482
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 9: franchise wrecker with over seventeen hundred receiving yards, and then

483
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 9: they went out and got him some help.

484
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 1: You know, we had heard that they were going.

485
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 9: To either get a wide receiver either through the draft

486
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 9: or through free agency, George Pickens.

487
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 1: That shocked a lot of us.

488
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 9: I don't think a lot of us really realize that

489
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 9: that was going to happen. It did, and then there's

490
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 9: been all these questions, is he going to be.

491
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 5: A problem, is he a diva?

492
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 9: And my interactions with George Pickens, he has essentially summed

493
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 9: it up, is a little bit misunderstood. He's passionate, he

494
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 9: wants to play the game, and just seeing the way

495
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 9: that he and Ceedee Lamb are already gelling together. You're

496
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 9: adding Ceedee Lamb is coming off a huge year. Phil's fresh,

497
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 9: he has got a healthy Dak Prescott that's coming back

498
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 9: something that he didn't have last year, and now you're

499
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 9: adding a true vertical threat in there with a George

500
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 9: Pickens who is averaging eighteen yards and catch. I think

501
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,719
Speaker 9: this is what's going to attract fans out to training

502
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 9: camp this year, So something I'm sure we're going to

503
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 9: be talking a lot of. But also what is Brian

504
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 9: Schottenheimer going to bring to this offense, particularly with those

505
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 9: two type of vertical threats.

506
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 1: And that type of a vertical threat also could open

507
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 1: some things up in terms of the running game, which

508
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: I would fairly say has been a point of consternation

509
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: from Cowboys fans over the past several years of what

510
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: is the plan? Zeke leaves Pollard leaves, Zeke comes back.

511
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: Nothing worked? Last year they overhauled the room once again.

512
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 1: How does this shake out now with a couple of

513
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: veterans and some young guys in the room as well.

514
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 9: It was one of the first questions I asked of

515
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 9: coach Schottenheimer. Are we going to try that running back

516
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 9: by committee thing again? It didn't seem like it worked,

517
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 9: But I don't know if you've got a head and

518
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 9: shoulders above the other guy's running back, right Now that's

519
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 9: what I think this is going to be one of

520
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 9: those true competitions out there. Remember they did go out

521
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 9: and acquire Javonte Williams this offseason from the Broncos. Now,

522
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 9: when healthy, Javonte Williams is a deadly guy on his

523
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 9: feet when it talks to what you can expect from him.

524
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 9: And then you went out and you got a guy

525
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 9: like Jaden Blue. This is the rookie out of Texas.

526
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 9: So here are two potential threats from.

527
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 1: You, but a little bit of an unknown.

528
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 9: You know, you've got Javonte Williams again when he was

529
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 9: at his best, when he was healthy.

530
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: Typically at takes a little.

531
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 9: Bit of time to come back from the injury that

532
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 9: he had. That's sort of the feedback that I've gotten

533
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 9: from a lot of people. And with Blue, there's a

534
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 9: lot of potential there. But this is a team that

535
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 9: was I think seventeenth in rushing last year. It was

536
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 9: always an issue for them, and then it didn't help

537
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 9: when really it felt like your only real threat on

538
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 9: offense was Ceedee Lamb. I think they did a really

539
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 9: good job this offseason of addressing some of the areas

540
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 9: that needed to happen, and I have to laugh. One

541
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 9: of our producers asked us before the segment, well, how

542
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,439
Speaker 9: good do you think the running game is really going

543
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 9: to be? And I said, I don't know, because it

544
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,479
Speaker 9: depends on that offensive line. Remember, Zach Martin did retire

545
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 9: this offseason. They did go and acquire an offensive lineman

546
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 9: during the draft. But my producers aren't the only ones

547
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 9: asking these questions. I've got family and friends asking it.

548
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 9: But for whatever reason, just the vibes and the energy,

549
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 9: and I know a lot of people don't want to

550
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 9: set their fantasy leagues around vibes. It feels different now

551
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 9: pull off the tape of what I've said that in

552
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 9: years past. I just truly believe there's something to be

553
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 9: a little excited about when it comes to this ross

554
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 9: this year.

555
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: That's going to be my fantasy team name now, Jane

556
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: Johnny twenty five All vibes. Thank you very much. We'll

557
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: talk to you again soon.

558
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 2: Ian, I said, my fantasy team on vibes. Do people

559
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 2: want to do that? AKA guessing? Whatever? Anyway, my fantasy

560
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 2: team is gonna kill it as per usual. Are any

561
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 2: of those guys going to be on I am in

562
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: a IDP league, so maybe Abdul Cardiker be on it

563
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 2: Cam Skattaboo, Jackson Dart, a lot of like of some giants,

564
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 2: big name rookies. I have a feeling we're going to

565
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 2: be talking about these guys a lot, especially with this guy,

566
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 2: Mark Ross. Thank you for hanging out with us. So

567
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 2: let's start right there, right Mark, can you go into

568
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 2: some of these rookies, and of course giants rookies reported

569
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 2: today as did I believe it was five rookies of

570
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: five other teams. What rookie are you looking forward to

571
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 2: learning about from the Giants.

572
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 10: Well, it definitely has to be Jackson Darts, and not

573
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,239
Speaker 10: just because he's throwing the guys on jet ski and

574
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 10: Tom he dropped that. Let Tom though he dropped the ball,

575
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,880
Speaker 10: the kid on the jet ski, he didn't just fall off.

576
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 10: But Jackson Dart. Look, the Giants, Abdul Carter is going

577
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 10: to be a star, but Jackson Dart. The Giants traded

578
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 10: up to get this young man. They've been starving for

579
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 10: a quarterback after the waning years of Eli Manning. Of

580
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 10: course the Daniel Jones experiment, and of course they've openly

581
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 10: said that this is a red shirt year.

582
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 8: But I don't think there's any way.

583
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 10: With the combination of Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in

584
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 10: front that Giants fans, Giants staff, Giants coaches are going

585
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 10: to want this guy to show flashes of why they

586
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 10: traded up to get him and say, look, we've got

587
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 10: to get this guy on the field sooner rather than later.

588
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 10: So I think the hope is, hey, this will be

589
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,199
Speaker 10: the red shirt year. We may have a tough go

590
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 10: of it, as do we have, but we've got to

591
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 10: get Jackson Dart on the field. And just moving down

592
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 10: ninety five to other teams in the NFC East, We'll

593
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 10: go down to Philly there, and who I am I

594
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 10: on there is Jehad Campbell right there, who was my

595
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 10: absolute favorite player to watch to scout in the draft.

596
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 10: I had him as a top ten talent. Fell down

597
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 10: there because of the shoulder injury questions. But the big

598
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 10: questions will be is he healthy at number two? Where

599
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 10: will he play in that Eagles defense? Because at Alabama

600
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 10: he was all over the place, rushing the past, dropping

601
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 10: man to man coverage, So where will he play and

602
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 10: will he be healthy?

603
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 7: And then moving further.

604
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 10: Down ninety five down to Washington there and it's a veteran.

605
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 10: We got talked about two rookies and it's Deebo Samuel

606
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 10: And what does Deebo have left? No, hey had the

607
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 10: injuries last year, some questions if he got a little

608
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 10: bit bigger than what he usually looks always a stocky build.

609
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 10: But and then also with the Terry McLaurin contract situation,

610
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 10: even more pressure on Deebo to perform if Terry's not there.

611
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,959
Speaker 10: So that'll be super intriguing with Jayden Daniels as an

612
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 10: MVP type candidate, if Deebo can raise that offense to

613
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 10: another level, and if he's the same old d bowl

614
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 10: there ian.

615
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and no doubt the situation to watch for the

616
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 2: Washington Commanders. You're right, if Terry mcclaurran not on the field,

617
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: how does that receiving core develop?

618
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 8: Mark?

619
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, great stuff as always, but don't

620
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 2: go anywhere. We're gonna have just a little bit more

621
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: from you before we wrap this thing up. Are the

622
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 2: Bengals gonna wrap it up with that guy? Trey Hendrickson,

623
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,479
Speaker 2: one of the best edges in the NFL. Does he

624
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 2: get paid? Micah Parsons, does he get paid? He give

625
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 2: him all of the money. All right, Well, anyway, let's

626
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 2: figure out. Let me come back on the Insiders. Who's

627
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 2: getting the bag and who is it?

628
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: Ravens rookies in the house today, including their first round

629
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: draft pick Malachi Starks, veterans for Baltimore, and most of

630
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: the other teams set to report training camp one week

631
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: from today. That includes Lamar Jackson, the multiple time MVP,

632
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: who now according to the team and Lamar sort of himself,

633
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: has been the subjective talk Sonny potential contract extension welcome

634
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: back to the Insiders, Tom Pellicero and Ian rapaport Ian

635
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 1: a unique situation, but everything else about Lamar, including the

636
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: way his negotiations work, have been different. Eric the Costa

637
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: has said, we want to get an extension done proactively.

638
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: Here where do we stand.

639
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 2: They do want to get an extension done proactively. Lamar

640
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 2: Jackson wants to get an extension done regularly. And there

641
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 2: is a reason why his cab number is a big

642
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: one this year balloons up. That's basically the way his

643
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 2: deal was constructed. To get to the point where they're

644
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 2: at right now and say, all right, it makes sense

645
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 2: for both sides to take another look at this. Really,

646
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 2: the question is Where does it land for Lamar Jackson.

647
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 2: Does he eclip eclipse these sixty million dollars of Dak

648
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 2: Prescott or does he get just a little bit lower,

649
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 2: maybe in the fifty five range like Josh Allen got

650
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 2: when he got a new deal, though Josh Allen's deal

651
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 2: was more of a ripped up deal, a brand new

652
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 2: one rather than an extension. Couple different ways to do this,

653
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 2: but you're right, they got about a week to go.

654
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 2: It is very clear this is a top priority for

655
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 2: Lamar and for the Ravens. But just because they don't

656
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 2: get it done before the camp doesn't mean it. The

657
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 2: Ravens keep working on deals throughout the season, so if

658
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 2: it doesn't get done, there's so chance that it eventually

659
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 2: ends up getting done.

660
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: One of the handful of big contract situations we will

661
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: be monitoring around the league. Another one in Buffalo where

662
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: running back James Cook did show up for mini camp

663
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: and participated last month. We'll see if that holds and

664
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: it potentially he could get that new deal prior to

665
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: the start of training camp. He has said himself on

666
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: social media that he's looking for fifteen million dollars per season.

667
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: That would be right at the top type of an end.

668
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: Beyd only likes the Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey in

669
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: terms of average per year. We all know the impact

670
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: that James Cook makes for that team. The Bill's also

671
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: spent a lot of money in this offseason. I would

672
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: imagine Ian, this is one that we're going to be

673
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: talking about right up until the start of training camp here,

674
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: kind of like the one with the Dallas Cowboys. That

675
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 1: could end up going on significantly longer than that.

676
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, if history tells us anything is that we're probably

677
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 2: going to talk about Michael Parsons right before they started

678
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 2: training camp. Then we're going to talk about Michael Parsons

679
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 2: all throughout training camp and maybe even right up until kickoff.

680
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 2: If it's anything like the Dak Prescott negotiations last year,

681
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 2: which were literally literally right up until kickoff. Of course,

682
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 2: for Dak Prescott it was worth it begat the highest

683
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 2: paid quarterback in the NFL. When MICHAEH. Parsons gets his

684
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: new deal, there is no doubt he is going to

685
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: be the highest paid defensive player, likely the highest paid

686
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 2: non quarterback in the NFL. Makes sense given his talent.

687
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: It's also why Michael Parsons knows he's going to get it,

688
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 2: is content to wait, wants the right deal, not the

689
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 2: fastest deal. But yes, we are going to be talking

690
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 2: about Michael Parson's plenty moving forward for the Dallas Cowboys,

691
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 2: and considering how much we're on air for the next

692
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 2: month or so, it makes.

693
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 5: Sense as well.

694
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: I would anticipate Michael Parsons shows up on time to

695
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: training camp. Doesn't necessarily mean, though, that he's doing much

696
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: of anything in terms of on the field work. As

697
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: for Trey Hendrickson, his status remains very much up in

698
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: the air. We've been talking about this one now for

699
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: a couple of years, most recently Trey Henderson himself holding

700
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: an impromptu press conference back in late May while his

701
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: teams are practicing. His team was practicing on the field

702
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: and saying he's not going to play for the sixteen

703
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 1: point five million that he is due this year. It

704
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like anything is imminent on this front. Still,

705
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: we know that the Bengals have specific things that they

706
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: like to do in terms of contracts. Trey Hendrickson has

707
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: been unbelievably durable. He's been one of the most productive

708
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: pass rushers over the past couple of years led the

709
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 1: league in sacks in twenty twenty five. There were trade

710
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: talks back before the draft. Nobody's really not for a

711
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: first drund picket that time, So it's hard to imagine

712
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: this doesn't end with Trey Hendrickson back in Cincinnati. We'll

713
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: see the when and with what type of contractional adjustment

714
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: that ends up taking place. As for their other pass rusher,

715
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: Shamar Stewart, he remains unsigned at the stage. There was

716
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: a dispute in the spring over language in the participation

717
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: agreement that most rookies signed up anticipate in voluntary practices.

718
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: Then he was also in the midst of a dispute

719
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:09,439
Speaker 1: over the actual contract language for his fully slotted deal.

720
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,439
Speaker 1: His representatives and Samar himself as said, they just want

721
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,760
Speaker 1: the same language that other Bengals draft picks in years past.

722
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: Half gotten. It's a standoff again.

723
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 10: Ian.

724
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: You would think all logic would tell you Shamar Stewart

725
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 1: ends up getting me in if not before the start

726
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: of training camp, in the early stages of training camp,

727
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: but he's under contract. They can't find him. Keep an

728
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 1: eye on this one as we move forward as well.

729
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it it makes sense.

730
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: To get it, Dee.

731
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 2: We'll see if they're able to do it. There's so

732
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 2: little to negotiating these rookie heals. Just do the anyway.

733
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 2: That's my soapbox. We'll see where these Steelers on TJ.

734
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 2: Watt end up. I TG want very serious about wanting

735
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 2: a new deal, wanting to be among the highest paid

736
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,879
Speaker 2: off not the highest paid defenders in the NFL. Has

737
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 2: put his foot down, essentially been clear about how much

738
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 2: he wants this where he believes it should be. This

739
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 2: is the ollociation actually pretty quiet, but no doubt they

740
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 2: are ongoing. It does not for me feel particularly close.

741
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 2: These Steelers have done a lot of things, a lot

742
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 2: of things this offseason. This is one thing they have

743
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 2: not done, but I would expect it to ramp up

744
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 2: either started training camp or right up against the start

745
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 2: of the season, where the Steelers often end up doing

746
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 2: their deals.

747
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: If you're TJ. Watt, you're saying, why would I take

748
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 1: less than Miles Garrett. I'm also a former defensive Player

749
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: of the Year. I'm your best defensive player on a

750
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 1: team that's gone all in with all these moves in

751
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: the offseason. If you're the Steelers, you're saying You're on

752
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: the wrong side of age thirty at this point and

753
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: didn't really produce the second half of last season. It's

754
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,879
Speaker 1: a really unique situation. You would think again, logic would

755
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: tell you they find a way here. TJ. Watt also

756
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: doesn't do a ton in training camp. This one might

757
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 1: take just a little bit. There are a lot of

758
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: other things you're able to watch for the Steelers if you.

759

Speaker 2: Get tickets to the games.

760
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,279

767
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 2: They're the top five defenses of twenty to twenty five,

768
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 2: according ten Above dot COM's Gennaro Police, so that you

769
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 2: don't have to play why bother playing the season? He

770
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 2: has named him right there with the Broncos being number one.

771
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 2: To be totally honest, that's actually a pretty good list,

772
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 2: and I do think the Broncos are going to be

773
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 2: really good how good who agrees with this? Is anyone

774
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 2: going to step up and say Genera Police is dead?

775
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 2: Rock Mark Ross, I am waiting for you. So you

776
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 2: saw that list, right, Why don't you instead of Genera Police,

777
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 2: why don't you project the top five defenses in the

778
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 2: NFL starting with number five?

779
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 8: Well, I sent my list in last night.

780
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 10: I didn't even see Gennaro's list, but we're pretty much

781
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 10: straight on. I had the Kansas City Chiefs number five,

782
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 10: and of course the chief has some stars like a

783
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 10: Chris Jones and McDuffie in the secondary there, but really

784
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 10: the mastermind is Steve Spagnolo and no.

785
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 8: Matter the pieces that he has, they're the tough guys,

786
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 8: the smart guys. Spags is going to find a way.

787
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 10: The last two years they've led the NFL with eighteen

788
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 10: point two points per game, leading the league there, and

789
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 10: I think Spags will do it again.

790
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 2: Chiefs have been very fortunate Spags has not become the

791
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 2: head coach again because he's their defensive coordinator. A remark,

792
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 2: what about number four?

793
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 8: Well, number four yet Houston. I got Minnesota in there.

794
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 10: In Minnesota led the league last year and takeaways and interceptions,

795
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 10: and they're only going to be better because they signed

796
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 10: Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave to get shore up that

797
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,879
Speaker 10: inside there. And then also Dallas Turner, last year's first

798
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 10: round draft pick, we didn't really produce much.

799
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 8: I expect him to take a big leap.

800
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 10: This year to provide even more havoc upfront for Brian

801
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 10: Flora's blitz scheme in that d end.

802
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 2: And Floras brings it, expect him to do it again

803
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 2: this year. What about number three.

804
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: Number three?

805
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 10: The Philadelphia Eagles, the defending champions there and they lost

806
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 10: a lot with Sweat and BG and Milton Williams getting

807
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 10: the big Payda and Slay, but a lot of young

808
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 10: talent coming back with Jalen Carter. And also keep your

809
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 10: eye on Jahad Campbell, who I talked about earlier, the

810
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 10: first round draft pick who will absolutely be an All

811
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 10: Pro player in the future. And of course Nick Fango,

812
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 10: another mastermind back.

813
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 8: There, will have the Eagles right there. Back in contention.

814
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:38,919
Speaker 2: Five four three? What about number two, mark number two?

815
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 8: We got the flip here.

816
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 10: Gennaro's got the Broncos at one, but I have them

817
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 10: at number two.

818
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 8: They could end up being number one.

819
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 10: But last year Advance Joseph really had that defense cooking,

820
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 10: leading the league in.

821
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 8: Sacks, third in points per game.

822
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 10: And again they only got better by signing the forty

823
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 10: nine ers due of re Law and Hufunga, and then

824
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 10: first round pick Johddy Baron, another one of my favorite

825
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 10: to watching scout, who will be an absolute versatile piece

826
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 10: in that secondary along with Defensive Player of the Year

827
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 10: Patrick certain I In.

828
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 2: So, if the Broncos are number two, who is number one?

829
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:16,280
Speaker 8: Number one?

830
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 10: The Baltimore Ravens, who from Week eleven on last year

831
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 10: were the best defense in the NFL end points per

832
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,479
Speaker 10: game and total yards per game, and again they've only

833
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 10: gotten better with Zach Orr getting that experience a defensive coordinator.

834
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 10: But also look at the personnel they brought in. They're

835
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 10: already loaded there and now they bring in first round

836
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 10: draft pick Malachi Starts out of Georgia, the versatile safety

837
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 10: Mike Gree who was the pass.

838
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 8: Rusher outside of Abdul Carter.

839
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 10: Last year, and then signed JayR Alexander to go in

840
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 10: that secondary that might be the best of the NFL,

841
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 10: the best in NFL history, we'll see.

842
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 8: So they're going to be number one with all those

843
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 8: pieces in.

844
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 2: And that Gyr Alexander thing happened a mil of the summer.

845
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 2: People probably still haven't thought about it. They will when

846
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 2: season begins. Mark, thank you very much. Great Stuff is always.

847
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 2: For the full list from Gennaro, go to NFL dot

848
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 2: com slash police for more of what Mark thinks to

849
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 2: keep watching the Insiders. He's on all the time anyway,

850
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 2: great Stuff. Appreciate you, Mark.

851
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:21,280
Speaker 1: It was a big throwback Tuesday, several teams announcing alternate jerseys,

852
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: including look at these beauties. Let's be honest, in the

853
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: seventies and eighties you thought that they were completely ugly,

854
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: but now they're retro. The Bucks going full Creampsicle. Can't

855
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 1: wait to see Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans making some

856
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: connections in those this fall. And speaking of connections, let's

857
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: play a little game right now called NFL Connections. Ian

858
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 1: I believe that you have been briefed on the rules

859
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,760
Speaker 1: of this game. We're going to show you sixteen words.

860
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: You've got to try to group as many as possible

861
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: intergroups of four that have some type of connection between

862
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: those words. Sixty seconds on the clock and go rap report.

863
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,439
Speaker 2: By the way these games, by the way, if you said,

864
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 2: torture you by making them do on the New York

865
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 2: Times out they're awful. I'll start. I see my name there, Okay,

866
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 2: I see pl that's your name. I see Bat that's

867
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 2: Bautista and Ga R for garaf Folo. Okay, so I

868
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 2: got the initial the first couple letters of our name.

869
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:26,399
Speaker 2: That's one group. Okay, I got that one. I think

870
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 2: we got some running backs, right, So we got Barkley,

871
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 2: we got Ashton, we got Tyler, and surely there is

872
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 2: a running back name. What that's wrong? No, there is

873
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 2: a running back. How did that be wrong?

874
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: Can you hear the buzzer? If we bunched you enough times,

875
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: you get one more guests? Here? You got like ten

876
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,280
Speaker 1: seconds left? Anything else?

877
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 2: This is a stupid game. I don't have any other guesses.

878
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 2: My guess was great. Why is that not what you

879
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 2: guys were thinking? It was a problem with these games.

880
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 2: It doesn't make any.

881
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 1: Ground draft picks. It was first round draft picks. Let's

882
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 1: show the graphic again, your first round draft picks, which

883
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:12,439
Speaker 1: was cam Ward, Travis Hunter, Ashton Genty is in there

884
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,359
Speaker 1: and Tyler Warren. You got MVP finalists from last year.

885
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: This is when the Hall of Fame class right there.

886
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: So you were very close technically. I think you get

887
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 1: three wrong answers before we would buzz you completely off

888
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 1: the game and kick you off till tomorrow.

889
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 2: Guess what he is part of this because you were

890
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 2: thinking that miserably, It doesn't mean that's actually what the

891
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 2: connection was. It doesn't make any sense.

892
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,879
Speaker 1: We are now going to play this game because you're

893
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: thinking the one I'm thinking. And guess what they you

894
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 1: were back tomorrow seven Eastern see it
