Stroud because 18 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: they caught it there on video that you know what? 19 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: When they want to play basketball.

How 31 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: are you doing? I'm just trying to keep track, trying 32 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: to keep track everything that's going on, everything that might 33 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: potentially happen. It seems like wolf if nothing else. And 34 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: we'll get to some of the names that have been 35 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: added to this roster, but obviously the focus is on 36 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: the Cardinals right now in regards to number three overall. 37 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: For example, Alabama had its Pro day today. Will Anderson 38 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: did not work out. He's gonna sit on his accomplishments 39 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: in numbers from the combine and you understand why. But 40 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: I think we're starting to see that the focus in 41 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: this draft is more and more going towards the AC 42 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: and number three overall, because if there are three, maybe 43 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: even four top quarterbacks in this draft, then guess one 44 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: Manias and Ford's phone is going to be a ringing Yeah, Polly, No, 45 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: I really think right now, where the Arizlana Cardinals are 46 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: sitting and we've talked about this before, We've speculated, but 47 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: they the reality of it is starting to crash home 48 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: right now, where they're sitting at number three, is that's 49 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: the catbird seat right now because of the facts CJ. 50 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,839 Speaker 1: Stroud and Bryce Young. Most people are talking about those 51 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: two guys and how well they are doing in terms 52 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 1: of impressing scouts. Those two guys, along with Anthony Richardson 53 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 1: now are coveted. And you know what happens when these 54 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are coveted by NFL teams that are a little 55 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: bit desperate and trying to bring a fresh body and 56 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: bring a capable human being and bringing a guy. Regardless 57 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: of whether it's just more combine numbers than anything else, 58 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: there are people that will take chances on a quarterback 59 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: because you can't win unless you got a franchise quarterback. 60 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: My favorite mock draft so far Mel Kiper this week 61 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: forty eight hours ago. He put out a mock that 62 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: as a Cardinal's trading down with Indie, they go down 63 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: one spot the Cardinals do They nab Will Anderson Junior 64 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: out of Alabama. Plus they wind up with an extra 65 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: second round and third round pick sold as indian comes 66 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: up to take a quarterback. So you have that. Absolutely, 67 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: we'll take that one, Bully, no doubt. If fact, can 68 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: you finalize that deal right now? Mel? What can you 69 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: do to make that happen? We get you into this 70 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: vehicle today, you know, our salesman says, yeah, Paully, I 71 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: just gotta jump in here. Though. When you're talking about that, though, 72 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: stop and think about the Indianapolis Colts if in fact 73 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: they do love themselves a little Anthony Richardson, or maybe 74 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: it's Bryce Young. Maybe they love Bryce Young and maybe 75 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: they're thinking, hey, there's a real chance that Bryce Young 76 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: could possibly be the right at three it regardless if 77 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: they want to get one of the top three prospects 78 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: at quarterback right now, Indianapolis. They can't risk sitting there 79 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: at number four and watching somebody like, oh, I don't 80 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: know the Raiders jump up to number three in draft 81 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: at quarterback right in front of them, specially when there 82 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: are reports out the Raiders had serious, advanced talks with 83 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: the Bears for number one overall. Right, so it appears 84 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: the Raiders are dead set. I'm maybe making a move 85 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: for a franchise quarterback. So yes, I agree with you. 86 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: That should move the meter with the Indianapolis Colts, who, 87 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: by the way, there's another report out that they might 88 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: covet Anthony Richardson because Shane Steiken sees Anthony Richardson as 89 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: a jail and Hurts. It's just instead a souped up 90 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: version with more measurables than a jail and Hurts, and 91 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: they'd run a similar type offense. But that's just one 92 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 1: report out of many. Late this afternoon, we got word 93 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: the Cardinals added yet another player. Here's the latest linebacker, 94 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: special teamer, Josh Woods out of Detroit where guessing this 95 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: might be a Dave Sears type signing. The assistant jam 96 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: has spent all those years with the Lions, guy who 97 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: played seventeen games a year ago with the Lions, after 98 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: making the league twenty eighteen with the Bears in the 99 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,799 Speaker 1: practice squad undrafted, so boom. There's sort of a pattern here, Wolf, 100 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: these sort of players the Cardinals are bringing in. What 101 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 1: do you see as sort of the the bar that 102 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: is being set among all these signings. Well, PAULI, for 103 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: the most part, We've talked about this a little bit, 104 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,559 Speaker 1: but I see the floor being raised. That's what I see. 105 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: I see the last forty to fifty three spots on 106 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: your roster being raised. They're churning up the back end 107 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,799 Speaker 1: of the roster right now, and the depth chart as well. 108 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: And Paul, I think that is the way to go. 109 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: I do when you're talking about a brand new general 110 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: manager and you're talking about a brand new head coach 111 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: and a brand new coaching staff, Paul, just stop right 112 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: there when you're talking about that, especially when you're going 113 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: into next season with the idea that your franchise quarterback 114 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,679 Speaker 1: is probably going to miss the start of the season. Paul, 115 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: that to me, that signals a rebuild. Now is it 116 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: a full on rebuild? Note, it's never a full on 117 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: rebuild when you have a franchise quarterback. But to me, 118 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: this is a rebuild by the Arizona Cardinals, and that 119 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: means raised the floor first, get your culture set and 120 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: go from there. That's what I think we're seeing right now. 121 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: And you know what worth noting Josh Woods one of 122 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: a half dozen Lions team captains last year, So you're 123 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: bringing in there, you go that sort of character guy, 124 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: the guy we're gonna be talking to in a little bit. 125 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: Zach Pascal is one of those types of guys. Speaking 126 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: of names, Cardinals said resigned some of their own guys. 127 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: We started this offseason with the likes of a Greg 128 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: Dortch and Accory Clement and a Zeke Turner. Then this 129 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: week David Blow resigned, So there you go, along with 130 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: Colt mccoy'd be your other two quarterbacks on the roster 131 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: currently to go along with Kyler Murray who continues the 132 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: rehab from the knee surgery. Antonio Hamilton at cornerbacks sign 133 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: to one year, one point five million dollar deal. So 134 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: that's been done. And then the Cardinals went out and 135 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: got a former first round pick from the Seahawks twenty 136 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: nineteen round one defensive lineman L J. Collier six two, 137 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: two ninety one, and he gets a contract just over 138 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: a million dollars one hundred and fifty grand and bonuses. 139 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: So why not, you know what I mean? You go 140 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: after a guy who's formerly a first round talent and 141 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: seeing get a home run with a guy like LJ. Collie, 142 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: especially when you obviously have needs along the defensive line. Boy, 143 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: you said so much there, Polly, really you said, I 144 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: just need to go back to the quarterback and David Blow. 145 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: That tells me that Kyler Murray. To me, this is 146 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: just me the fact that they've got cold McCoy of 147 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: course on the roster, and David Blow is a quarterback 148 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: they went out identified and signed. Now, it doesn't preclude them, 149 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: I get it, from signing another quarterback, but right now, 150 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: that tells me that maybe they're really comfortable with Kyler 151 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: Murray and his rehab right now, and the fact that, yeah, 152 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: Colt McCoy is probably gonna have to start maybe the 153 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: first three, four, five games, whatever it may be, Paully, 154 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: maybe that's what he's going to have to do. But 155 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: instead of going out and spending a lot of money 156 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: for somebody like a Marcus Mariota by way of example, right, 157 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: a guy that you were going to have to pay 158 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: five million, six million, whatever it may be, you have 159 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: to bring him in here. Instead of doing that, don't 160 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: do that because Kyler Murray is coming along with his rehab. Again, 161 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: we don't know that's the case, but Paul, that's what 162 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: that signing tells me right there. And you know what, 163 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: Drew stan made this point, a guy who's been what 164 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: in thirteen years worth of quarterback rooms in the NFL. 165 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: If it's all about Kyler Murray and it is, you 166 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: want to make sure the chemistry in that room is right. 167 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: So yes, you tend to opt for known versus unknown. 168 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: You know, Cole McCoy and David Blow create a great 169 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: environment for a Kyler Murray. You bring in a Gardner Minshew, 170 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,719 Speaker 1: I'm just throwing out names. I have no idea that 171 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariotta, PJ Walker, some of these other guys you know, 172 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: Jacoby bers said, Hey, they may have expectations on getting 173 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: playing time, how happy would they be as a strictly 174 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 1: a backup? So you know, in that regard, you're well 175 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: aware of what did David Blown, Cole McCoy bring to 176 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: the equation. And just let me jump in on l 177 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: Jay Collier right now, here's a guy. He played eleven 178 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: games his rookie year, and I would say that his 179 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: rookiear was a boss. Paul I would say that it 180 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: was a boss right there. And then he came back 181 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: and his second year was really really good and in 182 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: solid I think, and then all of a sudden he 183 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: came back, his third year not so good, and his 184 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: four fourth year was really bad. He only played in 185 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: eight games, had seven tackles. But he is talented. He 186 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: was a first round pick, as you well know. And Paulie, 187 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: if there's ever a guy you want to go out 188 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: and say, we're not counting on this guy, We're not 189 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: doing it, but man, we'd like to sign him and 190 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 1: give him the opportunity to compete here. That's exactly what 191 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: you want to do. One man's quote unquote trash is 192 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: another's treasure. And you know what, John Schneider in Seattle, 193 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: he really hit the reset button in that defensive line room. 194 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: They cut Shelby, Harris Quinn, Jefferson, Al Woods, and LJ. Collier. 195 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, they just yes, they just went scorched earth. 196 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: They're like, look, everybody's out. We weren't very stout at 197 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: the point of attack and so once again, you know 198 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: it's a low investment at low risk. Maybe a high 199 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: return on an LJ. Collier. We'll see about that. Dennis 200 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: Daley comes over from the Titans. Now this has provoked 201 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: a lot of reaction on Twitter from Titans fans because 202 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 1: he started fifteen games a left tackle and the Pro 203 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: Football Focus numbers were not kind. I'll just say this, 204 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: Number one, he's not going to be a starting tackle 205 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: on this rosspect he has experience of guards, so you're 206 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: gonna try him there, especially at left guard where he 207 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: has played before. And number two, Wolf, how about the 208 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one season opener when Chandler Jones had five 209 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: count of five sacks against Taylor Lewan and that coaching 210 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: staff and Mike Brabel never made an adjustment. They never 211 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: gave Taylor the Wan any help. So if you told 212 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: me Dennis Daley was hung out to dry all of 213 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: last year, starting those fifteen games at left tackle, yeah, 214 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: I would not be surprised. Paully, this to me is 215 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: a situation where you're not going to play him at tackle. 216 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 1: As you said, you got your two tackles, you got 217 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: Calvin Beachum, you got d J. Humphreys, you got your 218 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: two tackles set up. You're gonna give him the opportunity 219 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 1: to compete for that left guard position. But they're not 220 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: signing Dennis Day and saying he's gonna be our starting 221 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: left guard. They're gonna let him go ahead and compete 222 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: and bring depth along that offensive line. Yeah, I mean, 223 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: think about it. Could be Dennis Daley against Josh Jones 224 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: against Marquis Hayes. Best man wins left guard, right, I 225 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: mean as of right now. So yes, we'll see. So Wolf, 226 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: can receivers be physical football players? Say? Yes? Yes? Do 227 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: special teamers need to play physical football? Yes, Let's meet 228 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: the receiver. Now, let's meet the football player who checks 229 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: both boxes, Zach Pascal.

Yess, sir, not just a playmaker, but his 245 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: head coach and Philly called him and in forcer and 246 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: in a tough town like Philly, and the fact that 247 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: he plays the receiver that counts double in my book. 248 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: I just say that is the man sweetied out himself recently, 249 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: zp to the Asy and Zach Pascal joins us now 250 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: on the Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and 251 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: Gilbert our special guest, Zach Welcome, And I'd say you 252 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: know what you're getting used to where your surroundings are, 253 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: But no, you spent a week here getting ready for 254 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Correct, Yes, Sarah, appreciate you having me 255 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: on today. Man, what do you think Arizona by the way, 256 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: you said ZP to the asy when you know you 257 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: spend a week here and I'll just say, you might 258 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: not see rain again until like July. Okay, so this 259 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: is the worst you're probably gonna get weatherwise. Yeah. I 260 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: came down for the super Bowl the first week and 261 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: it was just great weather. And then I've come to 262 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: sign a day and it's raining, so at least all 263 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: good though, It's all good, all right. So you tell 264 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: us a little bit about yourself when you hear Enforcer, 265 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: how much pride do you take in that? Moniker? Take 266 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: a lot of pride. I mean, because you know a 267 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: lot of times in life, like you get put into 268 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: a box on what you can do, or you know 269 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: you're on your talent level. And so for me, I'm 270 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: listened as a receiver, but I love playing football, you 271 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So regardless of what you ask 272 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: me to do, I'm gonna do it times ten. That's 273 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: just who I am. And so if it's going in block, 274 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: if it's going in chip or doing a dirty word, 275 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: even if it's going out and making a tackle, like 276 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: my mindset is just going in dominate. I love playing football, 277 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: Like I said, so, like I'm not crying about you know, 278 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: not getting the ball or you know, not trying to 279 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: do the dirty work or get dirty. So being an enforcer, 280 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: it's a mindset. And I feel like I'm one of 281 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: the last few receivers who even has this mindset, you know, 282 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: to go in and go crazy like that. So so 283 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: to fight to fight the odds. Right as an undrafted 284 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: guy out of old dominion, did you have to be 285 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: that sort of player? Is that just who you were 286 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: and that's your DNA or did you have to take 287 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: on that sort of role to make the NFL? Well, 288 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: I was kind of that player even in college. Um, 289 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: I was playing special team. I was catching touchdowns and 290 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: then going down and making the tackle right after the touchdown. 291 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: So like I'm used to just being out there all 292 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: the time or doing whatever it takes to win, whether 293 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: it's whatever it is, um And so that coming into 294 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: the league, you know, it grew on me. You know 295 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: how I can stay in the league obviously, but it 296 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: just enhanced that mentality I already had. You know, well, 297 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: our co host on this show, Ron Wolfley, went to 298 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: four Pro Bowls as a special team's ace. So if 299 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: he's if he's here, he would ask you, what do 300 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: you like most about special teams and where do you excel? 301 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: What what's your role? What do you enjoy the most? 302 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: I would say kickoff, yo, kickoff, because I mean, it's 303 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: it's it's It could either be beginning of the game. 304 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: I think if it's like this, special teams is a 305 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: group of special players doing special things. You can you 306 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: have to be special to do this, you know what 307 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's like an all star team. But the 308 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 1: mindset is that what you need for special teams, the mindset, 309 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: the skill level. Everybody can't run backwards, turn around and 310 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: block somebody coming full speed at you, you know what 311 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Or everybody can't go down and defeat double 312 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: teams and then go make the tackle, you know, and 313 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: then you got plump pump return. But for me, my 314 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: favorite is kickoff because I just like to run full speed, 315 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: cause wreck and then go make the tackle. You know 316 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I can see why you're a good 317 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: fit with Jonathan Gannon. Zach Pascal is our guest, and 318 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: you know what, look, you followed them from the Colts 319 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: to the Eagles, now to the Cardinals. To what degree 320 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: has that been by designed? To what degree are you 321 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: guys just a good fit player coach? Listen, I guess, 322 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: I guess when great football minds think allow you end 323 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: up in the same place he told us about Jonathan Gannon. 324 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: Because you have a real intimate knowledge of the Cardinals 325 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: new head coach, we're getting you to know him. I'll 326 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: just say this much. On the second floor here at 327 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: the Cardinals facility, it could be two thirty on a 328 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: Tuesday afternoon and you will hear someone from the other 329 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: side of the building yell out, let's go yes, and 330 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: it's the head coach. Yes, you see like that all 331 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: the time. He's gonna bring the energy, I'm telling you, 332 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: But sometimes like that's what you need. You need the 333 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: energy because it's contagious, and if you see it every day, 334 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: it's contagious. It goes from the head coach to the 335 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: to the assistant coaches, from the assistant coaches to your 336 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: star players, from your star players to you know, everybody else, 337 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 1: even to the training staff. Like it doesn't matter that 338 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: I feel like that that energy is gonna be so gotaged. 339 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: It's just gonna help us want to get better. Every time. 340 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,479 Speaker 1: It's gonna help us have fun getting better, Zach Pascal, 341 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: our guests here on the Big Red Rage, why do 342 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: we get the feeling that during training camp and practices, 343 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: you going against JG's defense, things got competitive? Absolutely? Absolutely? 344 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: How competitive? Absolutely? I mean we want to field talking trash. 345 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a it's a it's it's a it's 346 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,080 Speaker 1: a fun, fun competition, you know what I'm saying. And 347 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 1: we're not going crazy, but um like, I want your best. 348 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: If we're gonna get better, I need your best and 349 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you my best. That's the only way 350 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna get better. So if I have to talk 351 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: trash to you to get you going or you know, 352 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: that's just how we are, like, let's do it, you know. 353 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,479 Speaker 1: And he's the same way. So it was just it's 354 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: always fun because we do one on ones and he's 355 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: coaching up the safeties and or the dbs in Indie, 356 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 1: and I would be a receiver talking trash to his 357 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: players right in front of him and then to him. 358 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: It was it was always good. It was always fun, 359 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: good competition. Right, So all your new teammates are gonna 360 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: be asking you, all right, what do they need to 361 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 1: know about Channa. Think Jonathan getting the new head coach, Um, 362 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: what would you tell him? What sort of scouting report 363 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: would you give your teammates on the head coach. He's 364 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: definitely a competitor, But one thing I would say, he's 365 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: definitely a player's coach, Like what you need as a player, 366 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: he would try his best to get that for you. 367 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: What you need to get better or to be successful 368 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: in the field, he would try to get that done 369 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 1: for you. For sure. You were in a T shirt 370 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: right now that reads bet on yourself. Explain that to us. 371 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: You know, Um, coming into the league right undrafted, you 372 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: you you tend to try to make a team and 373 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: be and get comfortable being on that team. And it's 374 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: like at this point, you know, I would do whatever 375 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: to stay on the team. But you know, I kind 376 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: of in these past couple of years grew a mindset 377 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: where it's like, Yo, you're not gonna be in this 378 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: league for long. You know what I'm saying, Like, bet 379 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,239 Speaker 1: on yourself, you know, bet on yourself. You know, if 380 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: you if you if you have the confidence you know 381 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: to trust in yourself, go ahead and do that. Bet 382 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: on yourself, your talent and you know, go make something happen, 383 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: because targets were hard to come by. Absolutely Philly last year. Absolutely, 384 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: a couple of years in Indianapolis you had, you know, 385 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: a couple of forty plus catch seasons, more than six 386 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 1: hundred yards each year, five touchdowns each campaign. How hungry 387 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: are you to return to that playmaker to be an 388 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: integral part of this offense? I don't even know if 389 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: I could put it into where I gotta just stay 390 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: stay on it. I'm trying to take that and putting 391 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: into my grind, my word so that way, when it's 392 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: time again, it's gonna be time. But definitely trying to 393 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: get back to that for sure, because people who may 394 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: have forgotten about you as a receiver necessarily right, fifteen 395 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: catchers all of last year you played every single game. Yeah, 396 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: you were available, you were durable, you were playmaker. But 397 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 1: in terms of the passing game and catching balls. Um, 398 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: you tell Cardinals fans what can they expect in your game? 399 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: What sort of receiver are you? No? I mean, I'm 400 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna talent to receiver. I mean I'm gonna 401 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 1: go out there and play the best to my ability. Um, 402 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 1: I ain't know slout. I ain't know. You know, I'm 403 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: gonna come in. I'm ready to hoop. I'm ready to 404 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: win games. I'm trying to come in and win when 405 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: a championship. I just came from Philly. We was winning. 406 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: So I'm trying to just bring that same same mindset. 407 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: I've been around great receivers A J. Brown, Ivanta Smith, 408 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: like I've been around these guys. So like you know, 409 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to come in and add what I 410 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 1: can to the team. Zach Pascal or guest Cardinals new receiver. 411 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: You also been around a lot of name quarterbacks, Andrew Lucky, 412 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, Carson Wentz, Jacoby Brissett, most recently Jail and Hurts. 413 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: You tell us how amped up are you to play 414 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray m Man? Anytime you could get a 415 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: play me at QB, it's always it's always fun. So 416 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: I'm excited, you know, to be able to work with 417 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: him and go and you know, go to war with 418 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: him and you know, try to win some games. He's 419 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: very talented. I want to come and help him the 420 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: best that I can. What's it like from a receiver 421 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: to play, you know with a pocket quarterback versus a 422 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: dual threat quarterback, most recently Jail and Hurts and now Kaylas. 423 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: I would say like, if you have more so a 424 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: pocket quarterback, you gotta be at that spot at the 425 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: right time, you know. And then when you have like 426 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: an athletic quarterback, you may be at the spot at 427 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: the right time. But now he's scrambling. You got scrambled. 428 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: You got scrambled space the field, you know, so you 429 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: gotta it's different on how you running your routes and 430 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: what you're looking at on defense to try and get 431 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: the ball. All right. So we're coming off the combine, right, 432 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: and they had a few different questions at the combine, 433 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: and one of them was if you were coaching yourself, 434 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: how would you get the best out of yourself? How 435 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,239 Speaker 1: would you answer that for your new coaches? If I 436 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: was coaching myself, how would I get the best out 437 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: of me? Um? Oh, tell me, I can't do some them. 438 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: It's good answer. It's good answer because you've already defied 439 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: the odds, haven't you? The whole bet on yourself T 440 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: shirt Absolutely a Zach. We enjoyed it.

Hey, look, 483 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 1: the most physical team wins most often, and that's what 484 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: guys like to say, especially about the playoffs. So he 485 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 1: is definitely a physical receiver. That's definitely a need right 486 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: now on this roster. There's no doubt about it. You 487 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 1: could hear how hungry he is. Only nineteen targets all 488 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: of last year on that talented Philly team. He's really 489 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 1: looking forward to being more of an integral part of 490 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: the passing game. And I just love him saying, look, 491 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: I'm listed as a receiver, but I love playing football. 492 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: It reminds me a lot of a Chase Edmonds when 493 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: he came in remember you as Chase Edmonds just about 494 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,479 Speaker 1: you know, in his response to you was, I'm not 495 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: just a running back, you know, I don't just catch 496 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 1: the ball. I'm a football player. So I guess that's 497 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: what they're getting Zach Pascal. But that's not to say 498 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: that the Cardinals are done in that receiver room, because 499 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 1: to start this week, we got the report from NFL 500 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: network Ian Rappaport quote as the status of d Hop 501 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: comes into focus. Talks are ramping up among interested teams, 502 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: and it's interesting because now all of a sudden, we're 503 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: getting some new teams added to this list. First off, Wolf, 504 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 1: do you fully expect DeAndre Hopkins to be traded at 505 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 1: some point and maybe some point soon in the Arizona 506 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: Cardinals offseason? Yes? I do, Polly. Yes. And what do 507 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: you think at this point is a realistic price, because 508 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's been like the stock market, it's been volatile. 509 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: It's been up and down all offseason. I don't know 510 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: where we're at right now. No, Polly, it really is. 511 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 1: I don't think a second round pick is out of 512 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: the question at all. As a matter of fact, I'm 513 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: digging my heels in on that second round pick. I 514 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: realize there's a lot of mitigating factors that makes this 515 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 1: deal a little suspect. And when I say a little suspect, 516 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the contract status of DeAndre Hopkins, of course, 517 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: and the new contract that he's gonna want wherever he 518 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: may go, Paul, that is what's complicating a lot of this. 519 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: That's my guess. I can't be one hundred percent sure 520 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: on that, Polly, but I think that's probably what's holding 521 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: up this deal right now? Well, the last party Ian Rappaport, 522 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: and what he said on Tuesday was similar to Brandon Cooks, 523 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: a trade of d Hop would mean an altered contract. Yep, 524 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: So okay, what does that mean? How badly does DeAndre 525 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: Hopkins want to play with all? I don't know Patrick 526 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: Mahomes or a Josh Allen because all of a sun 527 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 1: the bills. I mean, we have an NFL insider reporting 528 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 1: earlier today the d HOP trade market is headlined by Buffalo, 529 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: citing sources, and that was moments after pac Man Jones, 530 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: the former standout cornerback, joined the Pat McAfee show, and 531 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: he mentioned a handful of teams and then one front runner, 532 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: Muscos is Timmy that d hop is getting hot right now? Okay? 533 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: Interest is heating up, although our source says have told 534 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: us nothing we did see on Instagram Buffalo, So from 535 00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: d Hop just yesterday, Muscles is Timmy Buffalo work like 536 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: the Raiders too? I don't know. I go back and 537 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: look at the teams and I know d as a person, 538 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: I'm leaning more towards the bills of the Ravens and 539 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: he's in here Dallas with von Miller working out. So 540 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: it seems like Buffalo Soldier with what we're hearing from 541 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: pac Man source says, feels like Buffalo Bills fans have 542 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: a reason to be excited, all right. So the re 543 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: enacting the clip from the Bob Marley song that D 544 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: hop posted on Instagram Buffalo Soldier. Okay, So that's that's 545 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: that's sort of the cryptic post from djre Hopkins since 546 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: deleted Paul, Oh, yes, I did not know that. Okay, Okay, 547 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: that's okay, all right. So in the five teams that 548 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: were mentioned for what it's worth by pac Man Jones, 549 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: the Bills, the Ravens, the Raiders, the Patriots, we've heard 550 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: a lot of new noise out of New England and that, 551 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: and then the Falcons, who are seemingly nude in the 552 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: mix because previously, really we'd heard a lot about the Patriots, 553 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: the Browns who made the trade for Elijah Moore from 554 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: the Jets. Kansas City has been meant a lot, Carolina 555 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: a little bit. Tennessee has gotten a lot of play, 556 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: the Giants quite a bit, although they went on and 557 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: got Paris Campbell first, the former second round pick of 558 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: the Colts, and then Dallas before they made the deal 559 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: for Brandon Cooks. So, as you know, Wolf, it just 560 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: takes a couple of teams to maybe drive up the 561 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: price and then maybe, just maybe the Cardinals can get 562 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: something they've been looking for and they'll pull the trigger. 563 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: That's right, Polly. Right now, First of all, can I 564 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: just say this, You know, I love the Arizona Cardinals. 565 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: Of course, I bleed Cardinal Red. I love the Pittsburgh 566 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: Steelers because of my older brother Craig and the memories 567 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: that I have growing up with some of the greats, 568 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: the Steeler greats, and then of course being from Buffalo, 569 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: I love the Buffalo Bills. I love Dianrey Hopkins to 570 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Polly, I love it because of Stefon 571 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: Diggs on the other side, Are you kidding me? You 572 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: take a guy like Stefon Diggs, who is a run 573 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: by guy. He is a guy that can run by 574 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: the opponent, You take him and you stick d hop 575 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: on the other side of that, I love the fact 576 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: that you've got a very solid tight end in Dawson 577 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: Knox as well. He's a guy that is very reliable 578 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: in terms of running routes and being a safety valve 579 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: for Josh Allen. But man, you tell me that you 580 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: got those two guys on either side, Stefan Diggs and 581 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, and that could be exactly what pushes the 582 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills over the top and into the Super Bowl. 583 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm with you. Think of their playoff loss to Cincinnati, Well, 584 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: what were they missing another receiver in addition Stefon Diggs. 585 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: They had nobody beyond Diggs in that game. They have 586 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: a window right now where they think they're a championship contender. 587 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: You can't count on the draft on a rookie receiver, 588 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: you just can't. They're not game ready season number one, 589 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: at least not typically unless you're Jamar Chase right, And 590 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: it's certainly not where the Bills are drafting exactly. And 591 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,719 Speaker 1: it's a thin free agent class. It's already been picked over. 592 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm with you. You know what I mean. 593 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: Bill's got to come in and they got to bring 594 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: some something of worth and get the d hop trade 595 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: done and then Polly, Yeah, I just want to jump 596 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: in and just say this right now, the Buffalo Bills. 597 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: That makes so much sense and maybe the only other 598 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: team that rivals the Bills in my opinion as to 599 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: it making sense the Kansas City Chiefs if they want 600 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: to go back to back the Kansas City Chiefs. I 601 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: understand they have Travis Kelsey. I get that. I understand that, 602 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: But man, their wide receiver room is not very impressive 603 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: right now, and DeAndre Hopkins would make that very impressive. 604 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: Casey just lost Juju Smith Schuster to New England and 605 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: then there's a lot of noise out in New England 606 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: because Schuster's really more of an inside guy and they 607 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: need an X and guess what, that's what DeAndre Hopkins 608 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: would do. And we know the affinity between Belichick and 609 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: de hop and Juju. Also, Polly is really not a 610 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: wide receiver one, d hop is, So all right? What 611 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: does that mean for the Cardinals receiver room? Though? They'd 612 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: be minus a receiver one unless Hollywood Brown has a 613 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: breakout year. What do you think for the Cardinals when 614 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: I say, look as of current, as currently constructed, Hollywood Brown, 615 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: Rondale Moore, Zach Pascal, our guest tonight in the Big 616 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: Red Rage, Greg Dortch, Andre Batchelly, and then you have 617 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 1: a couple of practice squad caliber guys and Javan wins 618 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: An autumn take Yeah, Paul, you know again, this tells 619 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: me when anytime you're gonna lose DeAndre Hopkins and you're 620 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: admitting the fact that you're out there and you're shopping 621 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins and you're only going to get like a 622 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: second round pick back or maybe even worse than that, 623 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: some of the other rumors that are out there, a 624 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: third round pick whatever. I don't believe that, but you're 625 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: not going to get a ton of compensation because of 626 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: the mitigating factors as we've already discussed and regarded DeAndre Hopkins. 627 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: Anytime you're doing that, what you're really saying is, Paul, 628 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: the rebuild has hit reality, because again, d Hop, You're 629 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: not going to go out and be able to replace 630 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins with a guy that's anywhere close to what 631 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: d Hop brings to this team right now, because you'd 632 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: have to pay, you'd have to do it. And right now, 633 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: the one thing we are sure of is Monti Asenford 634 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: is building this team from the floor up, raising the 635 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: floor up as opposed to raising the ceiling and not 636 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: really addressing the floor of the roster. And I think 637 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: this is just me personally, but if you're changing everything. 638 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: You've got a new GM, a new head coach, a 639 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 1: new coaching staff. You could have a completely new culture 640 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: because of that. Man. You have to start by raising 641 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: the floor and admitting that you need to raise the 642 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: floor and build back culture. That Paulie is critical going forward. 643 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 1: I can't stress it enough. And you know what, I'll 644 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: just throw in an addition to raising the floor and 645 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: building that manner, you have to build from the inside out. Yes, 646 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: how to build the trenches firsty, we know Wolf firsthand. 647 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 1: Just look back in Cardinal's history. You can have all 648 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: the weapons you want, but unless you're stout at the 649 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and just based on the fact this 650 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 1: is a weak draft class when it comes to receivers 651 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: and I view this as a two year rebuild, then 652 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: guess what I think you're going after those linemen in 653 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: this draft, at least those guys that play maybe in 654 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: the front seven on defense and then in the trenches 655 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: on offense and defensive line. That's your priority right now? Yeah, absolutely, Polly, 656 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: go out and look for a guy who's really young 657 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: and really really talented, and maybe you're going to draft 658 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: him and give him the opportunity to come in here 659 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: and let lightning strike. But right now the d hop 660 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: situation tells me the reality of that rebuild is on. 661 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 1: Hey joined the season ticket priority list at Azy Cardinals 662 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: dot com slash priority list for more info. Back with 663 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:57,919 Speaker 1: more of the big red rage right after this gore 664 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: just bust by Colt McCoy. Oh, that is a greasy 665 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: role by col McCoy. Right there, spin that big Colt 666 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: shotgun snap to McCoy. Paul's loose on the ground, He 667 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: picks it up, throws over the middle. Hey, it's caught 668 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,959 Speaker 1: for a touchdown by Art. I'm on Cole McCoy picking 669 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: up a loose ball on the turf and throwing a 670 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: pass over the middle for a big touchdown. Here blow 671 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: looking deep, airing it out near sideline. Jump ball caught 672 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,879 Speaker 1: by A J. Green at the thirty five turns left 673 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: of the thirty. He's inside the twenty, inside the ten, 674 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: and Green is into the m zone for a touchdown. 675 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me, David. I want to prove 676 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: to my cell phone, want to prove to everybody when 677 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: they turn on the tape that they can trust me 678 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: with the ball in their hands or whatever that may 679 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: look like. My role in twenty twenty three. That is 680 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: David Blow going into the season finale at the forty 681 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: nine ers, And you know what that was foreshadowing in 682 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: a way, as we welcome him back into the Big 683 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by Santan Port and Gilbert We are 684 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: Satan Poor. Paul calvec Ron Wilfley and David Blow showed 685 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: up late on the scene started the last two games 686 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: and Wolf, look, you're either part of the problem or 687 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: you're part of the solution when a team hits the 688 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: reset button after a losing campaign. Cole McCoy and David 689 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: Blow both made their share of place, and to Blouse comment, 690 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: did he not put enough on film where the decision makers, 691 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: even albeit new decision makers, could watch that film and say, 692 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: you know what, as far as a backup quarterback goes, Yes, 693 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: this guy is a plus. And guess what he is 694 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: back in the fold for twenty twenty three. Yeah, no, Paul, 695 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 1: I am with you on that one. I really am, 696 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 1: and I think you would agree that guy was very impressive, 697 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: even though he threw two interceptions. To me, again, I say, 698 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: go back and look at that tape. One of them 699 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: I know for sure was not his fault. So having 700 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: said that, you look at him and think he threw 701 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 1: for over four hundred yards, just over four hundred yards, 702 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 1: And then I think of the offense that they actually 703 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: were running with David Blow. David Blow was actually under 704 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: sat or remember that, Polly. We're gonna see more and 705 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 1: more of that going forward. I think it's probably one 706 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 1: of the reasons why the Cardinals may have looked at 707 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: David Blow and said, listen, Kyler Murray's rehab is coming 708 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 1: along well. He should be on track at some point 709 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,439 Speaker 1: in time to return. Whether that's in October or maybe 710 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: even sooner, who knows, but he should be on track 711 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 1: to actually come back and be the franchise quarterback. Colt 712 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 1: McCoy can cover us. So let's not spend money. We're 713 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 1: talking about this earlier, Let's not spend money on the 714 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: quarterback position. Because David Blow can go out and actually 715 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: run an offense where you got him a shotgun pistol 716 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: or under center. And I think that was one of 717 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: the big reasons why they said, hey, let's sign this guy. Yeah. 718 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: The other big takeaway from me was him going down 719 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 1: fuel with a football, Yeah, in a passing attack to 720 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 1: spend all of almost all of last season, dead lasting 721 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 1: yards per passing an attempt he went downfield, there were 722 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: a lot of first down throws, are a lot of 723 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: chunk throws. He was targeting guys ten twenty thirty yards downfield. 724 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: We didn't see a lot of that, and I just 725 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: think it spoke to his confidence and his ability to 726 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: see the field. Now you're right about that. So again, 727 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: I think the Cardinals feel like he is capable of 728 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: orchestrating whatever offense they run out there. But it's gonna 729 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 1: be Colt mccauy. I would imagine going into training camp 730 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 1: and then at some point we're gonna see Kyler Murray. 731 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: So this to me is encouraging because it tells me, 732 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: this is just me looking at this situation. Kyler Murray's 733 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: rehab must be coming along nicely. Yeah, And there are 734 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: a lot of reports to that effect that he might 735 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: be ahead of schedule. So most are bullish on his 736 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,480 Speaker 1: rehab process so far. And we all know when the NFL, 737 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: it is about the quarterback and getting to the quarterback. 738 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,280 Speaker 1: And so the question becomes, will we see Will Anderson 739 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 1: Junior at Cardinals training camp? Will he be a draft 740 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: pick at number three? Will he be a Cardinals draft 741 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 1: pick at number four after they trade down with Indianapolis 742 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: US Will we see the Bama stand out? He was 743 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 1: on CBS Sports Rick Spielman, the former Vikings GM and 744 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: Rick Spielman had a couple of questions for the draft prospect. 745 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: How many teams have you talked to that are looking 746 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 1: at you as an outside linebacker and some may be 747 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 1: looking at you as a defensive end just putting your 748 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: hand in the dirt and getting up field. Yeah. I 749 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: talk to it quite a few teams, but I think 750 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 1: just being at Alabama and just how versatile they made me. 751 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: You know, whatever system I'm being, I feel like I'm 752 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 1: gonna be good playing it through four, outside linebacker, playing 753 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: with my hand in the dirt. Most of all the 754 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: teams I talked to say you can do both, and 755 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: they were really excited about me. Do you have any 756 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 1: other private workouts coming up after this or just a 757 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 1: lot of meetings. I have zero private workouts and zero 758 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: meeting so I'll just be here working out. So there 759 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 1: you go. In fact, according to reports, the Cardinals big 760 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 1: decision makers, the head coach and GM were not at 761 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: Alabama's pro day today. Will Anderson was not working out. 762 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:53,800 Speaker 1: He just said, you know what, everyone saw what I 763 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 1: could do at the combine. I rushed the combine. So 764 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: there you go. What we did here today was Nick 765 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: say his college head coach wolf on Will Anderson Junior, 766 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,760 Speaker 1: talking to ESPN, and I quote, this is Nick Saban 767 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: about Will. He has great ability, but he plays to 768 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: that ability all the time because he is a dog 769 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: ass competitor. I mean, he really is a great competitor. 770 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: End quote Nick Saban. You know you cannot convince me 771 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 1: that Nick Saban did not use those words that you 772 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,479 Speaker 1: just said on purpose, because I think he is trying 773 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: to help a kid that he probably loves in Will Anderson. 774 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: And the reason why I say that, Paulie, we all 775 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,400 Speaker 1: know the kind of weight that Nick Saban carries. We 776 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,360 Speaker 1: all know that when he says something like that, it 777 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: really speaks to the type of person that you're going 778 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: to be drafting in Paul more than anything else. That 779 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,760 Speaker 1: to me is why I'd love for the Arizona Cardinals somehow, 780 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: some way to get Will Anderson. This guy is a 781 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: football player. You know, we were talking. We were talking 782 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 1: about Pascal of course, and we were talking about some 783 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 1: of the guys that the Cardinals are signing in Josh Woods. 784 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: The fact that these guys are dogs, these guys are 785 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:11,280 Speaker 1: are Okay, maybe not in the top twenty five, top thirty, 786 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: top thirty five of your roster. Maybe they're more towards 787 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: the back end, but they're football players, Paul. They love 788 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: to play the game. And that's the reason why I'm 789 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: starting to get really jacked up when you tell me 790 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals were not at Alabama's pro day. Is 791 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 1: that what you're telling me, Paul, the head coach and 792 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 1: GM were not there today exact Well, that to me 793 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: is what I'm talking about. Yes, those guys not being 794 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:39,879 Speaker 1: there today, that really tells me they're focused and their 795 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 1: message is all about the tape and how you play 796 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 1: the game of football. We don't need to see you 797 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: running around unless you're actually playing the game of football. 798 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: There is an emphasis, I believe, a newfound emphasis in 799 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:59,439 Speaker 1: the organization on playing in between the white lines. Look 800 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: for all is accolades. Two time SEC Defensive Player of 801 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 1: the Year, two time All American, two time Bronco Nagurski 802 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: Award winner, is the best defensive player in the nation. 803 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 1: The thing I like the most when I hear about 804 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,320 Speaker 1: Will Anderson is when Amel Kiper puts in his scouting 805 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 1: report quote doesn't take plays off? Yes, And then when 806 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: you hear that you know, dog competitor from Nick Saban. 807 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: Those things that resonate to me. So okay, hopefully we 808 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 1: can pencil them in already. Will Anderson is a future 809 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,240 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinal. How about the future of an Isaiah Simmons. 810 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 1: Big decision right after the draft by May second, Cardinals 811 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 1: have to decide do they pick up that fifth year 812 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: option or not? What do you think the future holds 813 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: for Isaiah Simmons? Wow, I have no idea, Polly, I 814 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: have no idea what the Arizona Cardinals are going to do. 815 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 1: I just find it fascinating that Isaiah Simmons is very 816 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: much in the same category as Hassan Raddick was, and 817 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 1: what happened with Hassan Raddick, the same circumstances seem to 818 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 1: be surrounding Isaiah Simmons at this point in time. Even 819 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: though I think Isaiah Simmons has made more plays and 820 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 1: flashed a whole lot more than what Hassan Reddick flashed 821 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 1: at the time, I find it fascinating that here we 822 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: are once again in this situation. PAULI, I have no 823 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: idea what the Cardinals are going to do, but for me, 824 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and pass on the May second 825 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: and picking his option year up, and I'm gonna make 826 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: him go play, and then we'll try to sign him 827 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: going into October. If he flashes and looks like he 828 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: can do it, we'll try to sign him and we'll 829 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: give him a bank load. My hot take this week 830 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: on the Regiscy report is I really wonder if he's 831 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 1: not traded before May second, right around the draft, if 832 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: the Cardinals can get what they're looking for in terms 833 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: of trade compensation. I almost liken him to a day 834 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 1: on Buchanan. He's a baller, but what's his position? So 835 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll get an answer to that real soon 836 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 1: as well.
