Speaker 1: hundred percent ready. I'm telling you I'm ready. And Ron
Speaker 1: Wolflee it doesn't get any better than that. Unleash the far.
Speaker 1: So many questions linger out there, Ron Wolfley, for example,
Speaker 1: why why are this Seattle Seahawks going to dinner tonight
Speaker 1: with Bryce Young? Why did the Raiders meet with Bryce
Speaker 1: Young last night? Yes? Why did former Cardinals quarterback and
Speaker 1: current Carolina coach Josh McCown tell C J. Stroud because
Speaker 1: they caught it there on video that you know what?
Speaker 1: When they want to play basketball. Next, they'll have to
Speaker 1: find a hoop in Charlotte. When you quote live in Charlotte,
Speaker 1: Why did DeAndre Hopkins post to Instagram a clip from
Speaker 1: the Bob Marley song Buffalo Soldier? And why did d
Speaker 1: hops good buddy pac Man Jones all of a sudden
Speaker 1: become an NFL insider. We'll hear from Pacman Jones, We'll
Speaker 1: get the latest on de hop all the above, and
Speaker 1: we're going to meet Zach Pascal, Cardinals brand new receiver
Speaker 1: and Special Team's Assassin on this edition of The Big
Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by santan Ford in Gilbert. We are
Speaker 1: santan Ford, Paul Calves here, and our own Special Team's
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl Ron wolf Ley There. What's up, Polly? How
Speaker 1: are you doing? I'm just trying to keep track, trying
Speaker 1: to keep track everything that's going on, everything that might
Speaker 1: potentially happen. It seems like wolf if nothing else. And
Speaker 1: we'll get to some of the names that have been
Speaker 1: added to this roster, but obviously the focus is on
Speaker 1: the Cardinals right now in regards to number three overall.
Speaker 1: For example, Alabama had its Pro day today. Will Anderson
Speaker 1: did not work out. He's gonna sit on his accomplishments
Speaker 1: in numbers from the combine and you understand why. But
Speaker 1: I think we're starting to see that the focus in
Speaker 1: this draft is more and more going towards the AC
Speaker 1: and number three overall, because if there are three, maybe
Speaker 1: even four top quarterbacks in this draft, then guess one
Speaker 1: Manias and Ford's phone is going to be a ringing Yeah, Polly, No,
Speaker 1: I really think right now, where the Arizlana Cardinals are
Speaker 1: sitting and we've talked about this before, We've speculated, but
Speaker 1: they the reality of it is starting to crash home
Speaker 1: right now, where they're sitting at number three, is that's
Speaker 1: the catbird seat right now because of the facts CJ.
Speaker 1: Stroud and Bryce Young. Most people are talking about those
Speaker 1: two guys and how well they are doing in terms
Speaker 1: of impressing scouts. Those two guys, along with Anthony Richardson
Speaker 1: now are coveted. And you know what happens when these
Speaker 1: quarterbacks are coveted by NFL teams that are a little
Speaker 1: bit desperate and trying to bring a fresh body and
Speaker 1: bring a capable human being and bringing a guy. Regardless
Speaker 1: of whether it's just more combine numbers than anything else,
Speaker 1: there are people that will take chances on a quarterback
Speaker 1: because you can't win unless you got a franchise quarterback.
Speaker 1: My favorite mock draft so far Mel Kiper this week
Speaker 1: forty eight hours ago. He put out a mock that
Speaker 1: as a Cardinal's trading down with Indie, they go down
Speaker 1: one spot the Cardinals do They nab Will Anderson Junior
Speaker 1: out of Alabama. Plus they wind up with an extra
Speaker 1: second round and third round pick sold as indian comes
Speaker 1: up to take a quarterback. So you have that. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: we'll take that one, Bully, no doubt. If fact, can
Speaker 1: you finalize that deal right now? Mel? What can you
Speaker 1: do to make that happen? We get you into this
Speaker 1: vehicle today, you know, our salesman says, yeah, Paully, I
Speaker 1: just gotta jump in here. Though. When you're talking about that, though,
Speaker 1: stop and think about the Indianapolis Colts if in fact
Speaker 1: they do love themselves a little Anthony Richardson, or maybe
Speaker 1: it's Bryce Young. Maybe they love Bryce Young and maybe
Speaker 1: they're thinking, hey, there's a real chance that Bryce Young
Speaker 1: could possibly be the right at three it regardless if
Speaker 1: they want to get one of the top three prospects
Speaker 1: at quarterback right now, Indianapolis. They can't risk sitting there
Speaker 1: at number four and watching somebody like, oh, I don't
Speaker 1: know the Raiders jump up to number three in draft
Speaker 1: at quarterback right in front of them, specially when there
Speaker 1: are reports out the Raiders had serious, advanced talks with
Speaker 1: the Bears for number one overall. Right, so it appears
Speaker 1: the Raiders are dead set. I'm maybe making a move
Speaker 1: for a franchise quarterback. So yes, I agree with you.
Speaker 1: That should move the meter with the Indianapolis Colts, who,
Speaker 1: by the way, there's another report out that they might
Speaker 1: covet Anthony Richardson because Shane Steiken sees Anthony Richardson as
Speaker 1: a jail and Hurts. It's just instead a souped up
Speaker 1: version with more measurables than a jail and Hurts, and
Speaker 1: they'd run a similar type offense. But that's just one
Speaker 1: report out of many. Late this afternoon, we got word
Speaker 1: the Cardinals added yet another player. Here's the latest linebacker,
Speaker 1: special teamer, Josh Woods out of Detroit where guessing this
Speaker 1: might be a Dave Sears type signing. The assistant jam
Speaker 1: has spent all those years with the Lions, guy who
Speaker 1: played seventeen games a year ago with the Lions, after
Speaker 1: making the league twenty eighteen with the Bears in the
Speaker 1: practice squad undrafted, so boom. There's sort of a pattern here, Wolf,
Speaker 1: these sort of players the Cardinals are bringing in. What
Speaker 1: do you see as sort of the the bar that
Speaker 1: is being set among all these signings. Well, PAULI, for
Speaker 1: the most part, We've talked about this a little bit,
Speaker 1: but I see the floor being raised. That's what I see.
Speaker 1: I see the last forty to fifty three spots on
Speaker 1: your roster being raised. They're churning up the back end
Speaker 1: of the roster right now, and the depth chart as well.
Speaker 1: And Paul, I think that is the way to go.
Speaker 1: I do when you're talking about a brand new general
Speaker 1: manager and you're talking about a brand new head coach
Speaker 1: and a brand new coaching staff, Paul, just stop right
Speaker 1: there when you're talking about that, especially when you're going
Speaker 1: into next season with the idea that your franchise quarterback
Speaker 1: is probably going to miss the start of the season. Paul,
Speaker 1: that to me, that signals a rebuild. Now is it
Speaker 1: a full on rebuild? Note, it's never a full on
Speaker 1: rebuild when you have a franchise quarterback. But to me,
Speaker 1: this is a rebuild by the Arizona Cardinals, and that
Speaker 1: means raised the floor first, get your culture set and
Speaker 1: go from there. That's what I think we're seeing right now.
Speaker 1: And you know what worth noting Josh Woods one of
Speaker 1: a half dozen Lions team captains last year, So you're
Speaker 1: bringing in there, you go that sort of character guy,
Speaker 1: the guy we're gonna be talking to in a little bit.
Speaker 1: Zach Pascal is one of those types of guys. Speaking
Speaker 1: of names, Cardinals said resigned some of their own guys.
Speaker 1: We started this offseason with the likes of a Greg
Speaker 1: Dortch and Accory Clement and a Zeke Turner. Then this
Speaker 1: week David Blow resigned, So there you go, along with
Speaker 1: Colt mccoy'd be your other two quarterbacks on the roster
Speaker 1: currently to go along with Kyler Murray who continues the
Speaker 1: rehab from the knee surgery. Antonio Hamilton at cornerbacks sign
Speaker 1: to one year, one point five million dollar deal. So
Speaker 1: that's been done. And then the Cardinals went out and
Speaker 1: got a former first round pick from the Seahawks twenty
Speaker 1: nineteen round one defensive lineman L J. Collier six two,
Speaker 1: two ninety one, and he gets a contract just over
Speaker 1: a million dollars one hundred and fifty grand and bonuses.
Speaker 1: So why not, you know what I mean? You go
Speaker 1: after a guy who's formerly a first round talent and
Speaker 1: seeing get a home run with a guy like LJ. Collie,
Speaker 1: especially when you obviously have needs along the defensive line. Boy,
Speaker 1: you said so much there, Polly, really you said, I
Speaker 1: just need to go back to the quarterback and David Blow.
Speaker 1: That tells me that Kyler Murray. To me, this is
Speaker 1: just me the fact that they've got cold McCoy of
Speaker 1: course on the roster, and David Blow is a quarterback
Speaker 1: they went out identified and signed. Now, it doesn't preclude them,
Speaker 1: I get it, from signing another quarterback, but right now,
Speaker 1: that tells me that maybe they're really comfortable with Kyler
Speaker 1: Murray and his rehab right now, and the fact that, yeah,
Speaker 1: Colt McCoy is probably gonna have to start maybe the
Speaker 1: first three, four, five games, whatever it may be, Paully,
Speaker 1: maybe that's what he's going to have to do. But
Speaker 1: instead of going out and spending a lot of money
Speaker 1: for somebody like a Marcus Mariota by way of example, right,
Speaker 1: a guy that you were going to have to pay
Speaker 1: five million, six million, whatever it may be, you have
Speaker 1: to bring him in here. Instead of doing that, don't
Speaker 1: do that because Kyler Murray is coming along with his rehab. Again,
Speaker 1: we don't know that's the case, but Paul, that's what
Speaker 1: that signing tells me right there. And you know what,
Speaker 1: Drew stan made this point, a guy who's been what
Speaker 1: in thirteen years worth of quarterback rooms in the NFL.
Speaker 1: If it's all about Kyler Murray and it is, you
Speaker 1: want to make sure the chemistry in that room is right.
Speaker 1: So yes, you tend to opt for known versus unknown.
Speaker 1: You know, Cole McCoy and David Blow create a great
Speaker 1: environment for a Kyler Murray. You bring in a Gardner Minshew,
Speaker 1: I'm just throwing out names. I have no idea that
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariotta, PJ Walker, some of these other guys you know,
Speaker 1: Jacoby bers said, Hey, they may have expectations on getting
Speaker 1: playing time, how happy would they be as a strictly
Speaker 1: a backup? So you know, in that regard, you're well
Speaker 1: aware of what did David Blown, Cole McCoy bring to
Speaker 1: the equation. And just let me jump in on l
Speaker 1: Jay Collier right now, here's a guy. He played eleven
Speaker 1: games his rookie year, and I would say that his
Speaker 1: rookiear was a boss. Paul I would say that it
Speaker 1: was a boss right there. And then he came back
Speaker 1: and his second year was really really good and in
Speaker 1: solid I think, and then all of a sudden he
Speaker 1: came back, his third year not so good, and his
Speaker 1: four fourth year was really bad. He only played in
Speaker 1: eight games, had seven tackles. But he is talented. He
Speaker 1: was a first round pick, as you well know. And Paulie,
Speaker 1: if there's ever a guy you want to go out
Speaker 1: and say, we're not counting on this guy, We're not
Speaker 1: doing it, but man, we'd like to sign him and
Speaker 1: give him the opportunity to compete here. That's exactly what
Speaker 1: you want to do. One man's quote unquote trash is
Speaker 1: another's treasure. And you know what, John Schneider in Seattle,
Speaker 1: he really hit the reset button in that defensive line room.
Speaker 1: They cut Shelby, Harris Quinn, Jefferson, Al Woods, and LJ. Collier.
Speaker 1: I mean, they just yes, they just went scorched earth.
Speaker 1: They're like, look, everybody's out. We weren't very stout at
Speaker 1: the point of attack and so once again, you know
Speaker 1: it's a low investment at low risk. Maybe a high
Speaker 1: return on an LJ. Collier. We'll see about that. Dennis
Speaker 1: Daley comes over from the Titans. Now this has provoked
Speaker 1: a lot of reaction on Twitter from Titans fans because
Speaker 1: he started fifteen games a left tackle and the Pro
Speaker 1: Football Focus numbers were not kind. I'll just say this,
Speaker 1: Number one, he's not going to be a starting tackle
Speaker 1: on this rosspect he has experience of guards, so you're
Speaker 1: gonna try him there, especially at left guard where he
Speaker 1: has played before. And number two, Wolf, how about the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one season opener when Chandler Jones had five
Speaker 1: count of five sacks against Taylor Lewan and that coaching
Speaker 1: staff and Mike Brabel never made an adjustment. They never
Speaker 1: gave Taylor the Wan any help. So if you told
Speaker 1: me Dennis Daley was hung out to dry all of
Speaker 1: last year, starting those fifteen games at left tackle, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would not be surprised. Paully, this to me is
Speaker 1: a situation where you're not going to play him at tackle.
Speaker 1: As you said, you got your two tackles, you got
Speaker 1: Calvin Beachum, you got d J. Humphreys, you got your
Speaker 1: two tackles set up. You're gonna give him the opportunity
Speaker 1: to compete for that left guard position. But they're not
Speaker 1: signing Dennis Day and saying he's gonna be our starting
Speaker 1: left guard. They're gonna let him go ahead and compete
Speaker 1: and bring depth along that offensive line. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: think about it. Could be Dennis Daley against Josh Jones
Speaker 1: against Marquis Hayes. Best man wins left guard, right, I
Speaker 1: mean as of right now. So yes, we'll see. So Wolf,
Speaker 1: can receivers be physical football players? Say? Yes? Yes? Do
Speaker 1: special teamers need to play physical football? Yes, Let's meet
Speaker 1: the receiver. Now, let's meet the football player who checks
Speaker 1: both boxes, Zach Pascal. Next on the Big Red Rage
Speaker 1: presented by santan Ford and Gilbert we Are, santan Ford
Speaker 1: hurts up the gun, he fakes the Sanders, goes back.
Speaker 1: He's firing wide open Pascal at the five and he
Speaker 1: is and for the touchdown. Zack Pascal thirty four yards,
Speaker 1: throws left side to Zach Pastile but the five yard line,
Speaker 1: looking for the Baylon. He's in Zack Plasco and the
Speaker 1: ball is cut rays Zack Pascal. Yes, Sir, touchdown. Zac
Speaker 1: Plasco eat a way down field for Zach Pascal. Touchdown.
Speaker 1: Touchdown Zack Pascal. A forty two yard bomb floats right
Speaker 1: side on a crossing cutick. Zach Pascal fakes a man
Speaker 1: miss chucks the pile at the goal line, gets a touchdown.
Speaker 1: Zack Pascal grows end zone looking for a man. He's
Speaker 1: got it. Touched down Zack Pascal. Pascal from seventeen yards
Speaker 1: away for the fire up field into the end zone, touchdown.
Speaker 1: Zack Pascal. Yess, sir, not just a playmaker, but his
Speaker 1: head coach and Philly called him and in forcer and
Speaker 1: in a tough town like Philly, and the fact that
Speaker 1: he plays the receiver that counts double in my book.
Speaker 1: I just say that is the man sweetied out himself recently,
Speaker 1: zp to the Asy and Zach Pascal joins us now
Speaker 1: on the Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and
Speaker 1: Gilbert our special guest, Zach Welcome, And I'd say you
Speaker 1: know what you're getting used to where your surroundings are,
Speaker 1: But no, you spent a week here getting ready for
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Correct, Yes, Sarah, appreciate you having me
Speaker 1: on today. Man, what do you think Arizona by the way,
Speaker 1: you said ZP to the asy when you know you
Speaker 1: spend a week here and I'll just say, you might
Speaker 1: not see rain again until like July. Okay, so this
Speaker 1: is the worst you're probably gonna get weatherwise. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: came down for the super Bowl the first week and
Speaker 1: it was just great weather. And then I've come to
Speaker 1: sign a day and it's raining, so at least all
Speaker 1: good though, It's all good, all right. So you tell
Speaker 1: us a little bit about yourself when you hear Enforcer,
Speaker 1: how much pride do you take in that? Moniker? Take
Speaker 1: a lot of pride. I mean, because you know a
Speaker 1: lot of times in life, like you get put into
Speaker 1: a box on what you can do, or you know
Speaker 1: you're on your talent level. And so for me, I'm
Speaker 1: listened as a receiver, but I love playing football, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So regardless of what you ask
Speaker 1: me to do, I'm gonna do it times ten. That's
Speaker 1: just who I am. And so if it's going in block,
Speaker 1: if it's going in chip or doing a dirty word,
Speaker 1: even if it's going out and making a tackle, like
Speaker 1: my mindset is just going in dominate. I love playing football,
Speaker 1: Like I said, so, like I'm not crying about you know,
Speaker 1: not getting the ball or you know, not trying to
Speaker 1: do the dirty work or get dirty. So being an enforcer,
Speaker 1: it's a mindset. And I feel like I'm one of
Speaker 1: the last few receivers who even has this mindset, you know,
Speaker 1: to go in and go crazy like that. So so
Speaker 1: to fight to fight the odds. Right as an undrafted
Speaker 1: guy out of old dominion, did you have to be
Speaker 1: that sort of player? Is that just who you were
Speaker 1: and that's your DNA or did you have to take
Speaker 1: on that sort of role to make the NFL? Well,
Speaker 1: I was kind of that player even in college. Um,
Speaker 1: I was playing special team. I was catching touchdowns and
Speaker 1: then going down and making the tackle right after the touchdown.
Speaker 1: So like I'm used to just being out there all
Speaker 1: the time or doing whatever it takes to win, whether
Speaker 1: it's whatever it is, um And so that coming into
Speaker 1: the league, you know, it grew on me. You know
Speaker 1: how I can stay in the league obviously, but it
Speaker 1: just enhanced that mentality I already had. You know, well,
Speaker 1: our co host on this show, Ron Wolfley, went to
Speaker 1: four Pro Bowls as a special team's ace. So if
Speaker 1: he's if he's here, he would ask you, what do
Speaker 1: you like most about special teams and where do you excel?
Speaker 1: What what's your role? What do you enjoy the most?
Speaker 1: I would say kickoff, yo, kickoff, because I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's It could either be beginning of the game.
Speaker 1: I think if it's like this, special teams is a
Speaker 1: group of special players doing special things. You can you
Speaker 1: have to be special to do this, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's like an all star team. But the
Speaker 1: mindset is that what you need for special teams, the mindset,
Speaker 1: the skill level. Everybody can't run backwards, turn around and
Speaker 1: block somebody coming full speed at you, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Or everybody can't go down and defeat double
Speaker 1: teams and then go make the tackle, you know, and
Speaker 1: then you got plump pump return. But for me, my
Speaker 1: favorite is kickoff because I just like to run full speed,
Speaker 1: cause wreck and then go make the tackle. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I can see why you're a good
Speaker 1: fit with Jonathan Gannon. Zach Pascal is our guest, and
Speaker 1: you know what, look, you followed them from the Colts
Speaker 1: to the Eagles, now to the Cardinals. To what degree
Speaker 1: has that been by designed? To what degree are you
Speaker 1: guys just a good fit player coach? Listen, I guess,
Speaker 1: I guess when great football minds think allow you end
Speaker 1: up in the same place he told us about Jonathan Gannon.
Speaker 1: Because you have a real intimate knowledge of the Cardinals
Speaker 1: new head coach, we're getting you to know him. I'll
Speaker 1: just say this much. On the second floor here at
Speaker 1: the Cardinals facility, it could be two thirty on a
Speaker 1: Tuesday afternoon and you will hear someone from the other
Speaker 1: side of the building yell out, let's go yes, and
Speaker 1: it's the head coach. Yes, you see like that all
Speaker 1: the time. He's gonna bring the energy, I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: But sometimes like that's what you need. You need the
Speaker 1: energy because it's contagious, and if you see it every day,
Speaker 1: it's contagious. It goes from the head coach to the
Speaker 1: to the assistant coaches, from the assistant coaches to your
Speaker 1: star players, from your star players to you know, everybody else,
Speaker 1: even to the training staff. Like it doesn't matter that
Speaker 1: I feel like that that energy is gonna be so gotaged.
Speaker 1: It's just gonna help us want to get better. Every time.
Speaker 1: It's gonna help us have fun getting better, Zach Pascal,
Speaker 1: our guests here on the Big Red Rage, why do
Speaker 1: we get the feeling that during training camp and practices,
Speaker 1: you going against JG's defense, things got competitive? Absolutely? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: How competitive? Absolutely? I mean we want to field talking trash.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a it's a it's it's a it's
Speaker 1: a fun, fun competition, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: we're not going crazy, but um like, I want your best.
Speaker 1: If we're gonna get better, I need your best and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you my best. That's the only way
Speaker 1: we're gonna get better. So if I have to talk
Speaker 1: trash to you to get you going or you know,
Speaker 1: that's just how we are, like, let's do it, you know.
Speaker 1: And he's the same way. So it was just it's
Speaker 1: always fun because we do one on ones and he's
Speaker 1: coaching up the safeties and or the dbs in Indie,
Speaker 1: and I would be a receiver talking trash to his
Speaker 1: players right in front of him and then to him.
Speaker 1: It was it was always good. It was always fun,
Speaker 1: good competition. Right, So all your new teammates are gonna
Speaker 1: be asking you, all right, what do they need to
Speaker 1: know about Channa. Think Jonathan getting the new head coach, Um,
Speaker 1: what would you tell him? What sort of scouting report
Speaker 1: would you give your teammates on the head coach. He's
Speaker 1: definitely a competitor, But one thing I would say, he's
Speaker 1: definitely a player's coach, Like what you need as a player,
Speaker 1: he would try his best to get that for you.
Speaker 1: What you need to get better or to be successful
Speaker 1: in the field, he would try to get that done
Speaker 1: for you. For sure. You were in a T shirt
Speaker 1: right now that reads bet on yourself. Explain that to us.
Speaker 1: You know, Um, coming into the league right undrafted, you
Speaker 1: you you tend to try to make a team and
Speaker 1: be and get comfortable being on that team. And it's
Speaker 1: like at this point, you know, I would do whatever
Speaker 1: to stay on the team. But you know, I kind
Speaker 1: of in these past couple of years grew a mindset
Speaker 1: where it's like, Yo, you're not gonna be in this
Speaker 1: league for long. You know what I'm saying, Like, bet
Speaker 1: on yourself, you know, bet on yourself. You know, if
Speaker 1: you if you if you have the confidence you know
Speaker 1: to trust in yourself, go ahead and do that. Bet
Speaker 1: on yourself, your talent and you know, go make something happen,
Speaker 1: because targets were hard to come by. Absolutely Philly last year. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: a couple of years in Indianapolis you had, you know,
Speaker 1: a couple of forty plus catch seasons, more than six
Speaker 1: hundred yards each year, five touchdowns each campaign. How hungry
Speaker 1: are you to return to that playmaker to be an
Speaker 1: integral part of this offense? I don't even know if
Speaker 1: I could put it into where I gotta just stay
Speaker 1: stay on it. I'm trying to take that and putting
Speaker 1: into my grind, my word so that way, when it's
Speaker 1: time again, it's gonna be time. But definitely trying to
Speaker 1: get back to that for sure, because people who may
Speaker 1: have forgotten about you as a receiver necessarily right, fifteen
Speaker 1: catchers all of last year you played every single game. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you were available, you were durable, you were playmaker. But
Speaker 1: in terms of the passing game and catching balls. Um,
Speaker 1: you tell Cardinals fans what can they expect in your game?
Speaker 1: What sort of receiver are you? No? I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna talent to receiver. I mean I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go out there and play the best to my ability. Um,
Speaker 1: I ain't know slout. I ain't know. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come in. I'm ready to hoop. I'm ready to
Speaker 1: win games. I'm trying to come in and win when
Speaker 1: a championship. I just came from Philly. We was winning.
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to just bring that same same mindset.
Speaker 1: I've been around great receivers A J. Brown, Ivanta Smith,
Speaker 1: like I've been around these guys. So like you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to come in and add what I
Speaker 1: can to the team. Zach Pascal or guest Cardinals new receiver.
Speaker 1: You also been around a lot of name quarterbacks, Andrew Lucky,
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, Carson Wentz, Jacoby Brissett, most recently Jail and Hurts.
Speaker 1: You tell us how amped up are you to play
Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray m Man? Anytime you could get a
Speaker 1: play me at QB, it's always it's always fun. So
Speaker 1: I'm excited, you know, to be able to work with
Speaker 1: him and go and you know, go to war with
Speaker 1: him and you know, try to win some games. He's
Speaker 1: very talented. I want to come and help him the
Speaker 1: best that I can. What's it like from a receiver
Speaker 1: to play, you know with a pocket quarterback versus a
Speaker 1: dual threat quarterback, most recently Jail and Hurts and now Kaylas.
Speaker 1: I would say like, if you have more so a
Speaker 1: pocket quarterback, you gotta be at that spot at the
Speaker 1: right time, you know. And then when you have like
Speaker 1: an athletic quarterback, you may be at the spot at
Speaker 1: the right time. But now he's scrambling. You got scrambled.
Speaker 1: You got scrambled space the field, you know, so you
Speaker 1: gotta it's different on how you running your routes and
Speaker 1: what you're looking at on defense to try and get
Speaker 1: the ball. All right. So we're coming off the combine, right,
Speaker 1: and they had a few different questions at the combine,
Speaker 1: and one of them was if you were coaching yourself,
Speaker 1: how would you get the best out of yourself? How
Speaker 1: would you answer that for your new coaches? If I
Speaker 1: was coaching myself, how would I get the best out
Speaker 1: of me? Um? Oh, tell me, I can't do some them.
Speaker 1: It's good answer. It's good answer because you've already defied
Speaker 1: the odds, haven't you? The whole bet on yourself T
Speaker 1: shirt Absolutely a Zach. We enjoyed it. I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the A Z Officially, Yes, sir, and we
Speaker 1: look forward to seeing you out on the grass. Zp
Speaker 1: to Azy appreciates you. Head love it, Zach Pascal, our
Speaker 1: guest on the Big Red Rage. We continue right after this.
Speaker 1: I'll brought you by satan Ford and Gilbert. We are
Speaker 1: satan Ford back to throw, flushed out, rolling left in trouble,
Speaker 1: slips a tackle, Gotta launch it. He does left side
Speaker 1: into the end zone. Jump ball and it is Is
Speaker 1: it caught? Is it caught? Oh my goodness, it's caught.
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins botting. He caught him for a duckdown with
Speaker 1: one second lapt. I can't believe him. You've gotta be
Speaker 1: joking me. Hopkins reaches off with three defenders around him.
Speaker 1: Head polls it in head. The Cardinals lead at thirty
Speaker 1: two to thirty. Quit a second, laft, you, Chad cover
Speaker 1: doof You're not gonna be able the cover room. Throw
Speaker 1: the ball off. That's right, Walfie. When he is covered,
Speaker 1: he's not covered. One of a handful of receivers you
Speaker 1: can say that about in the league. And you heard
Speaker 1: it there, Hail Murray twenty twenty to beat Buffalo. Wait
Speaker 1: a minute, could the Bills be the front runner? The
Speaker 1: clubhouse leader right now. We'll get into that as the
Speaker 1: ball is up in the air. There's no doubt about
Speaker 1: a when it comes to the future of DeAndre Hopkins,
Speaker 1: who is going to come down with d hop we'll
Speaker 1: talk about that into bids the Big Red Rage presented
Speaker 1: by santan Ford in Gilbert. We are santan Ford, Paul Kelbc,
Speaker 1: Ron Wolfley and special thanks to our special guest Zach Pascal,
Speaker 1: who we had a chance to visit with yesterday. And
Speaker 1: you know what, those rain clouds have parted and boom,
Speaker 1: you can see the sunny future hopefully for Zach Pascal,
Speaker 1: who was still in his prime and wearing that T shirt. Wolf,
Speaker 1: bet on yourself, that's what is T shirt said. And
Speaker 1: I'm guessing you liked a lot about just his mentality,
Speaker 1: not just as a receiver but as a football player.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, you know, Polly, I love that. And
Speaker 1: remember too, this is what Jonathan Gannon is trying to do.
Speaker 1: This is what this coaching staff and Mannie Asenford is
Speaker 1: trying to do right now. They're trying to go out
Speaker 1: and bring in football players, guys that love to play
Speaker 1: the game, guys that love to tap into the essence
Speaker 1: of the game of football, which you know, Polly, is
Speaker 1: to go out there and maybe blood somebody's nose. Hey, look,
Speaker 1: the most physical team wins most often, and that's what
Speaker 1: guys like to say, especially about the playoffs. So he
Speaker 1: is definitely a physical receiver. That's definitely a need right
Speaker 1: now on this roster. There's no doubt about it. You
Speaker 1: could hear how hungry he is. Only nineteen targets all
Speaker 1: of last year on that talented Philly team. He's really
Speaker 1: looking forward to being more of an integral part of
Speaker 1: the passing game. And I just love him saying, look,
Speaker 1: I'm listed as a receiver, but I love playing football.
Speaker 1: It reminds me a lot of a Chase Edmonds when
Speaker 1: he came in remember you as Chase Edmonds just about
Speaker 1: you know, in his response to you was, I'm not
Speaker 1: just a running back, you know, I don't just catch
Speaker 1: the ball. I'm a football player. So I guess that's
Speaker 1: what they're getting Zach Pascal. But that's not to say
Speaker 1: that the Cardinals are done in that receiver room, because
Speaker 1: to start this week, we got the report from NFL
Speaker 1: network Ian Rappaport quote as the status of d Hop
Speaker 1: comes into focus. Talks are ramping up among interested teams,
Speaker 1: and it's interesting because now all of a sudden, we're
Speaker 1: getting some new teams added to this list. First off, Wolf,
Speaker 1: do you fully expect DeAndre Hopkins to be traded at
Speaker 1: some point and maybe some point soon in the Arizona
Speaker 1: Cardinals offseason? Yes? I do, Polly. Yes. And what do
Speaker 1: you think at this point is a realistic price, because
Speaker 1: I mean, it's been like the stock market, it's been volatile.
Speaker 1: It's been up and down all offseason. I don't know
Speaker 1: where we're at right now. No, Polly, it really is.
Speaker 1: I don't think a second round pick is out of
Speaker 1: the question at all. As a matter of fact, I'm
Speaker 1: digging my heels in on that second round pick. I
Speaker 1: realize there's a lot of mitigating factors that makes this
Speaker 1: deal a little suspect. And when I say a little suspect,
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the contract status of DeAndre Hopkins, of course,
Speaker 1: and the new contract that he's gonna want wherever he
Speaker 1: may go, Paul, that is what's complicating a lot of this.
Speaker 1: That's my guess. I can't be one hundred percent sure
Speaker 1: on that, Polly, but I think that's probably what's holding
Speaker 1: up this deal right now? Well, the last party Ian Rappaport,
Speaker 1: and what he said on Tuesday was similar to Brandon Cooks,
Speaker 1: a trade of d Hop would mean an altered contract. Yep,
Speaker 1: So okay, what does that mean? How badly does DeAndre
Speaker 1: Hopkins want to play with all? I don't know Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes or a Josh Allen because all of a sun
Speaker 1: the bills. I mean, we have an NFL insider reporting
Speaker 1: earlier today the d HOP trade market is headlined by Buffalo,
Speaker 1: citing sources, and that was moments after pac Man Jones,
Speaker 1: the former standout cornerback, joined the Pat McAfee show, and
Speaker 1: he mentioned a handful of teams and then one front runner,
Speaker 1: Muscos is Timmy that d hop is getting hot right now? Okay?
Speaker 1: Interest is heating up, although our source says have told
Speaker 1: us nothing we did see on Instagram Buffalo, So from
Speaker 1: d Hop just yesterday, Muscles is Timmy Buffalo work like
Speaker 1: the Raiders too? I don't know. I go back and
Speaker 1: look at the teams and I know d as a person,
Speaker 1: I'm leaning more towards the bills of the Ravens and
Speaker 1: he's in here Dallas with von Miller working out. So
Speaker 1: it seems like Buffalo Soldier with what we're hearing from
Speaker 1: pac Man source says, feels like Buffalo Bills fans have
Speaker 1: a reason to be excited, all right. So the re
Speaker 1: enacting the clip from the Bob Marley song that D
Speaker 1: hop posted on Instagram Buffalo Soldier. Okay, So that's that's
Speaker 1: that's sort of the cryptic post from djre Hopkins since
Speaker 1: deleted Paul, Oh, yes, I did not know that. Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's okay, all right. So in the five teams that
Speaker 1: were mentioned for what it's worth by pac Man Jones,
Speaker 1: the Bills, the Ravens, the Raiders, the Patriots, we've heard
Speaker 1: a lot of new noise out of New England and that,
Speaker 1: and then the Falcons, who are seemingly nude in the
Speaker 1: mix because previously, really we'd heard a lot about the Patriots,
Speaker 1: the Browns who made the trade for Elijah Moore from
Speaker 1: the Jets. Kansas City has been meant a lot, Carolina
Speaker 1: a little bit. Tennessee has gotten a lot of play,
Speaker 1: the Giants quite a bit, although they went on and
Speaker 1: got Paris Campbell first, the former second round pick of
Speaker 1: the Colts, and then Dallas before they made the deal
Speaker 1: for Brandon Cooks. So, as you know, Wolf, it just
Speaker 1: takes a couple of teams to maybe drive up the
Speaker 1: price and then maybe, just maybe the Cardinals can get
Speaker 1: something they've been looking for and they'll pull the trigger.
Speaker 1: That's right, Polly. Right now, First of all, can I
Speaker 1: just say this, You know, I love the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1: Of course, I bleed Cardinal Red. I love the Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: Steelers because of my older brother Craig and the memories
Speaker 1: that I have growing up with some of the greats,
Speaker 1: the Steeler greats, and then of course being from Buffalo,
Speaker 1: I love the Buffalo Bills. I love Dianrey Hopkins to
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Polly, I love it because of Stefon
Speaker 1: Diggs on the other side, Are you kidding me? You
Speaker 1: take a guy like Stefon Diggs, who is a run
Speaker 1: by guy. He is a guy that can run by
Speaker 1: the opponent, You take him and you stick d hop
Speaker 1: on the other side of that, I love the fact
Speaker 1: that you've got a very solid tight end in Dawson
Speaker 1: Knox as well. He's a guy that is very reliable
Speaker 1: in terms of running routes and being a safety valve
Speaker 1: for Josh Allen. But man, you tell me that you
Speaker 1: got those two guys on either side, Stefan Diggs and
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, and that could be exactly what pushes the
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills over the top and into the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I'm with you. Think of their playoff loss to Cincinnati, Well,
Speaker 1: what were they missing another receiver in addition Stefon Diggs.
Speaker 1: They had nobody beyond Diggs in that game. They have
Speaker 1: a window right now where they think they're a championship contender.
Speaker 1: You can't count on the draft on a rookie receiver,
Speaker 1: you just can't. They're not game ready season number one,
Speaker 1: at least not typically unless you're Jamar Chase right, And
Speaker 1: it's certainly not where the Bills are drafting exactly. And
Speaker 1: it's a thin free agent class. It's already been picked over.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm with you. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Bill's got to come in and they got to bring
Speaker 1: some something of worth and get the d hop trade
Speaker 1: done and then Polly, Yeah, I just want to jump
Speaker 1: in and just say this right now, the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 1: That makes so much sense and maybe the only other
Speaker 1: team that rivals the Bills in my opinion as to
Speaker 1: it making sense the Kansas City Chiefs if they want
Speaker 1: to go back to back the Kansas City Chiefs. I
Speaker 1: understand they have Travis Kelsey. I get that. I understand that,
Speaker 1: But man, their wide receiver room is not very impressive
Speaker 1: right now, and DeAndre Hopkins would make that very impressive.
Speaker 1: Casey just lost Juju Smith Schuster to New England and
Speaker 1: then there's a lot of noise out in New England
Speaker 1: because Schuster's really more of an inside guy and they
Speaker 1: need an X and guess what, that's what DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: would do. And we know the affinity between Belichick and
Speaker 1: de hop and Juju. Also, Polly is really not a
Speaker 1: wide receiver one, d hop is, So all right? What
Speaker 1: does that mean for the Cardinals receiver room? Though? They'd
Speaker 1: be minus a receiver one unless Hollywood Brown has a
Speaker 1: breakout year. What do you think for the Cardinals when
Speaker 1: I say, look as of current, as currently constructed, Hollywood Brown,
Speaker 1: Rondale Moore, Zach Pascal, our guest tonight in the Big
Speaker 1: Red Rage, Greg Dortch, Andre Batchelly, and then you have
Speaker 1: a couple of practice squad caliber guys and Javan wins
Speaker 1: An autumn take Yeah, Paul, you know again, this tells
Speaker 1: me when anytime you're gonna lose DeAndre Hopkins and you're
Speaker 1: admitting the fact that you're out there and you're shopping
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins and you're only going to get like a
Speaker 1: second round pick back or maybe even worse than that,
Speaker 1: some of the other rumors that are out there, a
Speaker 1: third round pick whatever. I don't believe that, but you're
Speaker 1: not going to get a ton of compensation because of
Speaker 1: the mitigating factors as we've already discussed and regarded DeAndre Hopkins.
Speaker 1: Anytime you're doing that, what you're really saying is, Paul,
Speaker 1: the rebuild has hit reality, because again, d Hop, You're
Speaker 1: not going to go out and be able to replace
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins with a guy that's anywhere close to what
Speaker 1: d Hop brings to this team right now, because you'd
Speaker 1: have to pay, you'd have to do it. And right now,
Speaker 1: the one thing we are sure of is Monti Asenford
Speaker 1: is building this team from the floor up, raising the
Speaker 1: floor up as opposed to raising the ceiling and not
Speaker 1: really addressing the floor of the roster. And I think
Speaker 1: this is just me personally, but if you're changing everything.
Speaker 1: You've got a new GM, a new head coach, a
Speaker 1: new coaching staff. You could have a completely new culture
Speaker 1: because of that. Man. You have to start by raising
Speaker 1: the floor and admitting that you need to raise the
Speaker 1: floor and build back culture. That Paulie is critical going forward.
Speaker 1: I can't stress it enough. And you know what, I'll
Speaker 1: just throw in an addition to raising the floor and
Speaker 1: building that manner, you have to build from the inside out. Yes,
Speaker 1: how to build the trenches firsty, we know Wolf firsthand.
Speaker 1: Just look back in Cardinal's history. You can have all
Speaker 1: the weapons you want, but unless you're stout at the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and just based on the fact this
Speaker 1: is a weak draft class when it comes to receivers
Speaker 1: and I view this as a two year rebuild, then
Speaker 1: guess what I think you're going after those linemen in
Speaker 1: this draft, at least those guys that play maybe in
Speaker 1: the front seven on defense and then in the trenches
Speaker 1: on offense and defensive line. That's your priority right now? Yeah, absolutely, Polly,
Speaker 1: go out and look for a guy who's really young
Speaker 1: and really really talented, and maybe you're going to draft
Speaker 1: him and give him the opportunity to come in here
Speaker 1: and let lightning strike. But right now the d hop
Speaker 1: situation tells me the reality of that rebuild is on.
Speaker 1: Hey joined the season ticket priority list at Azy Cardinals
Speaker 1: dot com slash priority list for more info. Back with
Speaker 1: more of the big red rage right after this gore
Speaker 1: just bust by Colt McCoy. Oh, that is a greasy
Speaker 1: role by col McCoy. Right there, spin that big Colt
Speaker 1: shotgun snap to McCoy. Paul's loose on the ground, He
Speaker 1: picks it up, throws over the middle. Hey, it's caught
Speaker 1: for a touchdown by Art. I'm on Cole McCoy picking
Speaker 1: up a loose ball on the turf and throwing a
Speaker 1: pass over the middle for a big touchdown. Here blow
Speaker 1: looking deep, airing it out near sideline. Jump ball caught
Speaker 1: by A J. Green at the thirty five turns left
Speaker 1: of the thirty. He's inside the twenty, inside the ten,
Speaker 1: and Green is into the m zone for a touchdown.
Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me, David. I want to prove
Speaker 1: to my cell phone, want to prove to everybody when
Speaker 1: they turn on the tape that they can trust me
Speaker 1: with the ball in their hands or whatever that may
Speaker 1: look like. My role in twenty twenty three. That is
Speaker 1: David Blow going into the season finale at the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers, And you know what that was foreshadowing in
Speaker 1: a way, as we welcome him back into the Big
Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by Santan Port and Gilbert We are
Speaker 1: Satan Poor. Paul calvec Ron Wilfley and David Blow showed
Speaker 1: up late on the scene started the last two games
Speaker 1: and Wolf, look, you're either part of the problem or
Speaker 1: you're part of the solution when a team hits the
Speaker 1: reset button after a losing campaign. Cole McCoy and David
Speaker 1: Blow both made their share of place, and to Blouse comment,
Speaker 1: did he not put enough on film where the decision makers,
Speaker 1: even albeit new decision makers, could watch that film and say,
Speaker 1: you know what, as far as a backup quarterback goes, Yes,
Speaker 1: this guy is a plus. And guess what he is
Speaker 1: back in the fold for twenty twenty three. Yeah, no, Paul,
Speaker 1: I am with you on that one. I really am,
Speaker 1: and I think you would agree that guy was very impressive,
Speaker 1: even though he threw two interceptions. To me, again, I say,
Speaker 1: go back and look at that tape. One of them
Speaker 1: I know for sure was not his fault. So having
Speaker 1: said that, you look at him and think he threw
Speaker 1: for over four hundred yards, just over four hundred yards,
Speaker 1: And then I think of the offense that they actually
Speaker 1: were running with David Blow. David Blow was actually under
Speaker 1: sat or remember that, Polly. We're gonna see more and
Speaker 1: more of that going forward. I think it's probably one
Speaker 1: of the reasons why the Cardinals may have looked at
Speaker 1: David Blow and said, listen, Kyler Murray's rehab is coming
Speaker 1: along well. He should be on track at some point
Speaker 1: in time to return. Whether that's in October or maybe
Speaker 1: even sooner, who knows, but he should be on track
Speaker 1: to actually come back and be the franchise quarterback. Colt
Speaker 1: McCoy can cover us. So let's not spend money. We're
Speaker 1: talking about this earlier, Let's not spend money on the
Speaker 1: quarterback position. Because David Blow can go out and actually
Speaker 1: run an offense where you got him a shotgun pistol
Speaker 1: or under center. And I think that was one of
Speaker 1: the big reasons why they said, hey, let's sign this guy. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The other big takeaway from me was him going down
Speaker 1: fuel with a football, Yeah, in a passing attack to
Speaker 1: spend all of almost all of last season, dead lasting
Speaker 1: yards per passing an attempt he went downfield, there were
Speaker 1: a lot of first down throws, are a lot of
Speaker 1: chunk throws. He was targeting guys ten twenty thirty yards downfield.
Speaker 1: We didn't see a lot of that, and I just
Speaker 1: think it spoke to his confidence and his ability to
Speaker 1: see the field. Now you're right about that. So again,
Speaker 1: I think the Cardinals feel like he is capable of
Speaker 1: orchestrating whatever offense they run out there. But it's gonna
Speaker 1: be Colt mccauy. I would imagine going into training camp
Speaker 1: and then at some point we're gonna see Kyler Murray.
Speaker 1: So this to me is encouraging because it tells me,
Speaker 1: this is just me looking at this situation. Kyler Murray's
Speaker 1: rehab must be coming along nicely. Yeah, And there are
Speaker 1: a lot of reports to that effect that he might
Speaker 1: be ahead of schedule. So most are bullish on his
Speaker 1: rehab process so far. And we all know when the NFL,
Speaker 1: it is about the quarterback and getting to the quarterback.
Speaker 1: And so the question becomes, will we see Will Anderson
Speaker 1: Junior at Cardinals training camp? Will he be a draft
Speaker 1: pick at number three? Will he be a Cardinals draft
Speaker 1: pick at number four after they trade down with Indianapolis
Speaker 1: US Will we see the Bama stand out? He was
Speaker 1: on CBS Sports Rick Spielman, the former Vikings GM and
Speaker 1: Rick Spielman had a couple of questions for the draft prospect.
Speaker 1: How many teams have you talked to that are looking
Speaker 1: at you as an outside linebacker and some may be
Speaker 1: looking at you as a defensive end just putting your
Speaker 1: hand in the dirt and getting up field. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: talk to it quite a few teams, but I think
Speaker 1: just being at Alabama and just how versatile they made me.
Speaker 1: You know, whatever system I'm being, I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be good playing it through four, outside linebacker, playing
Speaker 1: with my hand in the dirt. Most of all the
Speaker 1: teams I talked to say you can do both, and
Speaker 1: they were really excited about me. Do you have any
Speaker 1: other private workouts coming up after this or just a
Speaker 1: lot of meetings. I have zero private workouts and zero
Speaker 1: meeting so I'll just be here working out. So there
Speaker 1: you go. In fact, according to reports, the Cardinals big
Speaker 1: decision makers, the head coach and GM were not at
Speaker 1: Alabama's pro day today. Will Anderson was not working out.
Speaker 1: He just said, you know what, everyone saw what I
Speaker 1: could do at the combine. I rushed the combine. So
Speaker 1: there you go. What we did here today was Nick
Speaker 1: say his college head coach wolf on Will Anderson Junior,
Speaker 1: talking to ESPN, and I quote, this is Nick Saban
Speaker 1: about Will. He has great ability, but he plays to
Speaker 1: that ability all the time because he is a dog
Speaker 1: ass competitor. I mean, he really is a great competitor.
Speaker 1: End quote Nick Saban. You know you cannot convince me
Speaker 1: that Nick Saban did not use those words that you
Speaker 1: just said on purpose, because I think he is trying
Speaker 1: to help a kid that he probably loves in Will Anderson.
Speaker 1: And the reason why I say that, Paulie, we all
Speaker 1: know the kind of weight that Nick Saban carries. We
Speaker 1: all know that when he says something like that, it
Speaker 1: really speaks to the type of person that you're going
Speaker 1: to be drafting in Paul more than anything else. That
Speaker 1: to me is why I'd love for the Arizona Cardinals somehow,
Speaker 1: some way to get Will Anderson. This guy is a
Speaker 1: football player. You know, we were talking. We were talking
Speaker 1: about Pascal of course, and we were talking about some
Speaker 1: of the guys that the Cardinals are signing in Josh Woods.
Speaker 1: The fact that these guys are dogs, these guys are
Speaker 1: are Okay, maybe not in the top twenty five, top thirty,
Speaker 1: top thirty five of your roster. Maybe they're more towards
Speaker 1: the back end, but they're football players, Paul. They love
Speaker 1: to play the game. And that's the reason why I'm
Speaker 1: starting to get really jacked up when you tell me
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals were not at Alabama's pro day. Is
Speaker 1: that what you're telling me, Paul, the head coach and
Speaker 1: GM were not there today exact Well, that to me
Speaker 1: is what I'm talking about. Yes, those guys not being
Speaker 1: there today, that really tells me they're focused and their
Speaker 1: message is all about the tape and how you play
Speaker 1: the game of football. We don't need to see you
Speaker 1: running around unless you're actually playing the game of football.
Speaker 1: There is an emphasis, I believe, a newfound emphasis in
Speaker 1: the organization on playing in between the white lines. Look
Speaker 1: for all is accolades. Two time SEC Defensive Player of
Speaker 1: the Year, two time All American, two time Bronco Nagurski
Speaker 1: Award winner, is the best defensive player in the nation.
Speaker 1: The thing I like the most when I hear about
Speaker 1: Will Anderson is when Amel Kiper puts in his scouting
Speaker 1: report quote doesn't take plays off? Yes, And then when
Speaker 1: you hear that you know, dog competitor from Nick Saban.
Speaker 1: Those things that resonate to me. So okay, hopefully we
Speaker 1: can pencil them in already. Will Anderson is a future
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinal. How about the future of an Isaiah Simmons.
Speaker 1: Big decision right after the draft by May second, Cardinals
Speaker 1: have to decide do they pick up that fifth year
Speaker 1: option or not? What do you think the future holds
Speaker 1: for Isaiah Simmons? Wow, I have no idea, Polly, I
Speaker 1: have no idea what the Arizona Cardinals are going to do.
Speaker 1: I just find it fascinating that Isaiah Simmons is very
Speaker 1: much in the same category as Hassan Raddick was, and
Speaker 1: what happened with Hassan Raddick, the same circumstances seem to
Speaker 1: be surrounding Isaiah Simmons at this point in time. Even
Speaker 1: though I think Isaiah Simmons has made more plays and
Speaker 1: flashed a whole lot more than what Hassan Reddick flashed
Speaker 1: at the time, I find it fascinating that here we
Speaker 1: are once again in this situation. PAULI, I have no
Speaker 1: idea what the Cardinals are going to do, but for me,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and pass on the May second
Speaker 1: and picking his option year up, and I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: him go play, and then we'll try to sign him
Speaker 1: going into October. If he flashes and looks like he
Speaker 1: can do it, we'll try to sign him and we'll
Speaker 1: give him a bank load. My hot take this week
Speaker 1: on the Regiscy report is I really wonder if he's
Speaker 1: not traded before May second, right around the draft, if
Speaker 1: the Cardinals can get what they're looking for in terms
Speaker 1: of trade compensation. I almost liken him to a day
Speaker 1: on Buchanan. He's a baller, but what's his position? So
Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll get an answer to that real soon
Speaker 1: as well. Hey, Season six, Episode two, Cardinals Flight Plan
