8
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 1: and we're joined by for my buck, the best draft

9
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: analysts in the business front of the program. He is

10
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: Dane Brouegler from the Athletic Dane, how are you, man,

11
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: I'm doing well. It's been a really great week here

12
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: in Mobile Overcast Mobile Um. But you know, it's it's

13
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: always fun this week because you know, the Hay's in

14
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 1: the barn already. You know, like we we've done all

15
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: the work and now it's it's about cross checking. That's

16
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: what the combines forwards with all the workouts of Fords

17
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: with the All Star Games are for make sure that

18
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: these guys perform what we saw on tape and make

19
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: sure matches up and if it doesn't, all right, let's

20
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: go back to the tape and figure out, Okay, would

21
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: we miss And there's been a couple of guys this

22
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: week that of you know, maybe been a little better

23
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: than than you thought just on the tape, and so

24
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: it's time to investigate and figure that figure out why.

25
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: So it's a it's a really good uh, you know,

26
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: part of the step of the process that you know,

27
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: makes makes us do extra work and make sure we

28
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: get these guys right. You know, Dave mentioned the Hayes

29
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: in the barn. I believe you play your top fifteen

30
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: at each position on the athletic right, So make sure

31
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: you go check that out. He has his rankings pretty

32
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: much done and now it's just a matter of adjusting, Dane.

33
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 1: So in what ways can what you see here during

34
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: this event change or adjust your prior opinion of these guys? Well,

35
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: and you know, for me, I'm not a scouting department,

36
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: I'm not uh. You know, the teams have already been

37
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: on campus with these guys. Talk to him seeing them

38
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: up close. For me and for you know, a lot

39
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: of us on the outside looking in, you know, it's

40
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: our first chance to talk to a few of these

41
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: guys or see their body types, or see them move

42
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: within ten feet of them to really get a better

43
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: feeling for their athleticism, their movements. Um, you know. And

44
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: it's it's something that really helps shape because you're talking

45
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: about puzzle pieces, and the more puzzle pieces you have,

46
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: the more clear picture you have. And that's what you

47
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: pick up here and just little these little puzzle pieces

48
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: that help determine Okay, maybe maybe he needs a year

49
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: in a strength and conditioning uh program in the NFL

50
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: before he's realistically going to see the field. Maybe uh,

51
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: you know, he's not as stiff as I thought, you know,

52
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: and these one on ones and and things like that.

53
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's really really helpful and and you

54
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: don't change your rankings based off of just this week,

55
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,839
Speaker 1: you know. Like I said, it's it's something that makes

56
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: you go back and look and try to figure him out,

57
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: no question about it. All right. You mentioned some guys

58
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: have kind of stood out to you, maybe not surprised,

59
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: but maybe did a little bit more than you expected.

60
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: Who are some of the guys that you would throw

61
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: into that category before we start going position by position here. Uh.

62
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: One of the biggest um quote unquote risers I think

63
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: could be from this week is Darius Rush, the corner

64
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: from South Carolina who has been fantastic. He's, uh, you know,

65
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: almost six two, He's got a longer wingspan than a

66
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: lot of the offensive alignment here, and he's been outstanding

67
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: during drills. Um. You see the movements, Um, he's he's

68
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: been running the routes better than the receivers. He's getting

69
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: his hands on the football and you know, just you know,

70
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: doing learning more about him, and you know, he's a

71
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: big fish in a small pond growing up. You know,

72
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: it's kind of the best player on every team he

73
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: played so often he played quarterback, goes to South Carolina

74
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: and uh, you know it's a little inconsistent, but you

75
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: see the talent with him, and he also has you know,

76
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: the Zebra technologies is here. They do all the UM

77
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: speed metrics and mile prouer Darris Rush cording to them,

78
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: the fastest player here on the field. He got over

79
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: twenty one miles per hour. So I think if you're

80
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: looking for a guy that has looked good just movement wise,

81
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: but also in the drills, I think you have to

82
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: go with corner Darius Rush. He's been outstanding. Yeah, agree

83
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: a percent, all right, let's let's knock out some position

84
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: groups here. Wide receiver position the Giants might be interested in.

85
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: And we're not gonna touch on the full draft class

86
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: with Danny. We're gonna have it out at the combine.

87
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: We'll do that there. We'll focus on the guys here. Dane,

88
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: you know, I thought, and we just watched the practice

89
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: he was participating. I thought Jaden Reid had a really

90
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: good first day of practice here. We haven't seen as

91
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: much of him recently. You know, Rashi Rice I thought

92
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: showed his ability to separate a little bit earlier. He

93
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: got held a lot in practice. I thought yesterday Um

94
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: a lot of flags him and throwing those one on

95
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: one drills. And then for the American team, I thought,

96
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: Tank Dell, who's only a hundred sixty pounds, but boy,

97
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 1: nobody has been able to cover him here. Uh. You

98
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: can talk about those guys or anyone else so wide

99
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: receiver that you think has really jumped out to you. Yeah.

100
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: For me, I think three receivers. And it's funny because

101
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: receiver that's the splashy position down here. You know, we've

102
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: seen guys like Brandon aiyuk or Um, Chase Claypool. Uh,

103
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: last year Christian Watson. You know a lot of receivers

104
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: have a chance to shine down here, and I think

105
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,919
Speaker 1: for this week, Jane Reid who you mentioned from Michigan State,

106
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: he has been the most impressive receiver from start to

107
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: finish in my opinion. Uh, and going back to his

108
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: one film, that's where I think what you need to

109
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: do to get a better sense for uh, that type

110
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: of player that he is, because this past year just

111
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: the whole offense with without just losing Kenny Walker. I

112
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 1: don't know if that was it, but without Walker, that

113
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: offense at Michigan State just fell apart and he didn't

114
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: get a chance to really shine. But for a guy

115
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: that's not the biggest, you know, he's under five eleven,

116
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: he's a hundred and ninety four pounds, I think, Um,

117
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: he will make go up and make plays. His hand

118
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: strengths really impressive. Um, he's really fast, but he's not

119
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: just a speedy guy. There's little subtleties to his route

120
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: running that helps him get open, whether it's just you know,

121
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: using little hesitation. Um, you know the body figs. So

122
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: been really impressed with Jaden Reid's returning punts, which you know,

123
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 1: the more you can do helps your chances. So I

124
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: think he reads really helped himself. I know he had

125
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: third round grades UM really coming into this this week

126
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: from a lot of scouts, so I think he only

127
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: cemented himself as a Day two guy. UM. Michael Wilson

128
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: from Stanford as well, he's been awesome UM. And he's

129
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: an interesting one because over the last three years he's

130
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: missed more games and he's played UM. And so it's

131
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: something that with with Wilson, the durability, the medical reports,

132
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: that's gonna be a big piece to the puzzle with him.

133
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,119
Speaker 1: But just talking about him on the field, size, the athleticism,

134
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: the ball skills, he has it all. I mean, check

135
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: all those boxes. Uh, he has one consistently, whether it's

136
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: been down the field, whether it's been an end zone drills, UM,

137
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: red zone. He's been really, really fantastic. And so if

138
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 1: if my trainer gives them two thumbs up and said,

139
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: you know, I think he should be healthy moving forward.

140
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: Michael Wilson a big time riser. And then I'm glad

141
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: you mentioned del who. It can be easier for some

142
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: of these smaller, speedier guys to win on one on

143
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: ones and but I want to go back to the

144
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: metric felt in a couple of years ago, who looks

145
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: like an all Pro receiver and then he goes to

146
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: the NFL plays running back. So yeah, yeah, exactly, And

147
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: that's why I think it's Yeah, it's easier for those

148
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: some of these undersized guys are really shine when when

149
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: it's just one on one corners on on on an island,

150
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 1: and if you have one little misstep, it's just you know,

151
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: you you get cooked. But dell Is I think he's

152
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: a little bit more than that, like, and he's got

153
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 1: the production to back it up. Over receiving yards the

154
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: two years, he's actually longer than uh, you know you

155
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: expect so, but you know, you look at the last

156
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: few years, some of these guys that have been a

157
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty five ish pounds, I have just not

158
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: worked out whether it's too too out well. Um, coming

159
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: out of Louisville, the Rams took him in the second round.

160
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: Um a kid from North Texas. Uh. Two years ago

161
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: the Bucks drafted him, I think in the fourth or

162
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: fifth round. And you know he has not had much

163
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: success at the next level. So you know, I think

164
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: there's obvious size working against him, but he's a good

165
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: player and I think that a team is gonna look

166
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: at him, you know, as early as the day two

167
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: and feel like, you know what, we can have a

168
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: potential playmaker with him. Also called punts today to again

169
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: more you can do Like you said, boy, you know,

170
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: it's a good running back lass in general, and I

171
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: think we have some really good backs here. I mean,

172
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if Taj Spears at his size can

173
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: be in every down back, but how many teams have

174
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: every down backs anymore? He's explosive. Kenny McIntosh showed the

175
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: route running the power. You know, he was not a

176
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: full time back at Georgia, but he has the size

177
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: to do it. And then from only Chase Brown, you know,

178
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: he's a guy that has all the production and I

179
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: thought he's a look good. It's I think it's just

180
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: an excellent running back group here. There's no question it's

181
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: running back is a really deep position this year. You know,

182
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: obviously be Jean Robinson will get all the talk and

183
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: in rightfully so, he's one of the best talents in

184
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,679
Speaker 1: this draft class. But uh, it's it's a deep running

185
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: back group. As you get into the second, third, fourth, rounds. Uh,

186
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: some really good running backs, you're gonna fall to the

187
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: fourth round. It's just how it's gonna work out this year.

188
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: I think this is maybe this is hyperbolic, but the

189
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: the running back the running backs on the American team here,

190
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: I think is maybe the best position group here period. Uh.

191
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: Because you're talking about you mentioned j Spears from Tulane

192
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: who's been fantastic. Uh. Eric Gray from Oklahoma is outstanding.

193
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: He runs so low to the ground. You see the quickness,

194
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: you see the vision. Uh. He makes it a chore

195
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: on defenders to finish into the ground because he has

196
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: that pinball mentality to him running between the tackles. Um,

197
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: he's really good. Uh. McIntosh is also on that squad,

198
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 1: and then Chris Rodriguez from can Ucky. I think those

199
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 1: four guys, uh, it's a it's a really impressive group. So,

200
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: like I said, you include the underclassman, which we've had

201
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: a lot of underclassmen running backs come out like we

202
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 1: do every year, and it's just it's gonna be a

203
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: crowded group and so that's gonna make some really talented

204
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: backs follow the fourth or fifth round, no question about.

205
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: All right, let's let's jump the tight end quick Luke Musgrave,

206
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: I know somebody a lot of people are watching, and

207
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: you know, I talked to him at the Player Breakfast

208
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 1: couple of days ago and he was just excited to

209
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: get back and play football. He's been dying to play.

210
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: But you can see that there might be still a

211
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: little bit of rust there since he hasn't played in

212
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: a while. But boy, the traits are pretty obvious. Yeah,

213
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: I think you can make a case he's the best

214
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: combo tight end in the draft, um in terms of

215
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 1: his ability as a blocker and his ability as a

216
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: pass catcher. Speed is outstanding for a size. Uh. He's

217
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,199
Speaker 1: got a skiing background and you can see it with

218
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 1: the way he moves with some of the hip action

219
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: and some of the sink. Uh. It's been really impressive.

220
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: More drops this week than you want to see. But

221
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 1: I think that speaks to what you're talking about there.

222
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: There's Russ. You know, he hasn't played since September, had

223
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: a knee issue, so that was a bummer. But yeah,

224
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: I mean he's at the top of this tight end class.

225
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: It's it's just it's loaded and it comes down to

226
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: what type of tight end you want. Uh, you know,

227
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: Michael Mayer's different than Luke Musgrave's different than Darnell Washington's

228
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: different than Dalton Kincaide. So depending on which type of

229
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: tight end you want, that's going to drive how your

230
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,079
Speaker 1: tight end ranking stack. At the top, let's jump to

231
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: the offensive line, Dan, I think they've done a great

232
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: job of moving around guys at different spots, especially a

233
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: couple of smaller school guys McClendon, Curtis, Cody Mock. They've

234
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: been all over the line, right, Jalen Duncan's moved from

235
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: left to right, Matthew Bergeron moved around, Steve a Villa

236
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: played a little bit of center along with some guard.

237
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: You know. I just think they've done a really good

238
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: job of kind of showcasing to these scouts how versatile,

239
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: especially some of these guys that can, you know, maybe

240
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: play tackle in in college, but probably you're gonna beat

241
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 1: guards in the NFL. And I get a lot of

242
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: credits to the players for having the openness to do that. Uh.

243
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: You know, guy like Cody mok who has never played

244
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: anywhere but tackle and his career UH at North Dakota

245
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: State in high school, he was a defensive end and

246
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: tight end also played some quarterback and punter. Uh. And

247
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: so he walks on the North North Kota State, puts

248
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: on weight, moves the tackle, and he had a fantastic

249
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: All American career at North Dakota State. But you know,

250
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: he's got really short arms, and you know, teams want

251
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: to see, Okay, how do you do inside? So this

252
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: is first exposure to live reps ever on the inside,

253
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: and it's it's been a little up and down, but

254
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: I gave a lot of credit for going out there

255
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: and competing, and at an event like this where it's

256
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: practiced day after day after day, you just want to

257
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: see progress. You know, are you taking the all the

258
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: feedback you're getting from coaches learning from your mistakes? And

259
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: I think Cody Mak has done that. So it's a

260
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: pretty good group here. Um. You know, Dwan Jones had

261
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: that great first day at the right tackle. Former buck

262
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: Eys just one of the most humongous humans I've ever seen,

263
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 1: uh almost nine wingspan. I've never heard of that. Um,

264
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: So you know the size factor alone. I was really

265
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: hoping to see more of him throughout the week because

266
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: I don't know that it was really tested on that

267
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: in that first week everyone tried to just split him

268
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: down the middle, and you're just you can't do that

269
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: with a guy like that. He's gonna snatch you and

270
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 1: put you on the ground every time. So I was

271
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: hoping to see Russia's adjust to see how they attacked

272
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: Dwan Jones. Unfortunately, we haven't seen him since that first

273
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: day of practice. It's been a little banged up quote unquote. UM,

274
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: so you know we'll see. Um. He's a he's one

275
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 1: of the really intriguing tackles here at Matthew Burgs Ron

276
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: from Syracuse falls in that category. Darnell Right from Tennessee. Um,

277
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: Duncan too. Yeah, you know, I I have I've been

278
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: a little down on Duncan. I don't I struggle with him. Um,

279
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 1: I definitely don't see him as high as some other

280
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: people do. I think he's just he's late reacting a

281
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: lot of times. But you know, he's a really good mover.

282
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: He's got really good uh foot quickness. When when he

283
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: moves them, sometimes he gets kind of stuck. Um, but

284
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, he's a he's a guy that I I know.

285
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,319
Speaker 1: There's a lot of different opinions on throughout the league.

286
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,559
Speaker 1: So but overall, it's a it's not a top heavy

287
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: class in terms of you know, guys that are first

288
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: round picks or top fifty guys. But um, you know

289
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: day two, there's there's some solid depth that you can

290
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: find on the offensive line. Yeah, we'll see if Osiris

291
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 1: Torrance can work his way into that first round. And

292
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: he's one of the guys that's here. I think he's

293
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: the best offensive lineman uh here. I mean he's been.

294
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: He's been outstanding every after every Senior Bowl. I do

295
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: my you know who won, who was the best at

296
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 1: each position and guard? I don't have to think about it.

297
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: It's that's an easy Osiris Torrants um. You know for

298
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: a big muller like that. You want to see how

299
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: he does in space and pass pro and he's been

300
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: outstanding climbing in the second level. Um, doing a nice

301
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: jobsting balanced in his set. So uh o, Cyrus Torrens,

302
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: I think I don't know, you know, yeah, like you said,

303
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: Tom would tell if he gets in that first round.

304
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: But I think he's been the best offensive lineman here.

305
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: And he's been a both guard spots too, So that

306
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: used about both sides, which has been good. All right,

307
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: let's swhip through the defense here Dane defensive lineman. Frankly,

308
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: I thought the one on ones, the offensive lineman has

309
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: been probably getting the better of the defensive lines, which

310
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: usually you don't see at these events. You gotta give

311
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: the group credit. At the Kiano Benton out of Wisconsin

312
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,719
Speaker 1: has been good. I'm gonna try it. Added to me,

313
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 1: what out of Davaru from Northwestern it's pretty good. I'm

314
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 1: gonna go with a A h. There we go on

315
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: with that to who and the Jalen redmen. I thought

316
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: it some then reps. But you know, Will McDonald, is

317
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: he really an edge rusher. He's got long arms, I know,

318
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: but you know, the edge guys haven't jumped out to

319
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,599
Speaker 1: me your thoughts on on the defensive one of the

320
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: edge guys. Yeah, no, No, that's a great job of

321
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: setting it up because like Will McDonald, he's had some

322
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: really splashy plays and one on ones and that's expected.

323
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: He's a phenomenal athlete. Um for a guy that long

324
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: with his bend his quickness. Um, but you know he

325
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: and I was talking about body types earlier. Seeing him

326
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: in person, he he looks like he tried really hard

327
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: just to reach two forty. You know, he's just he's

328
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: got a very linear build, uh, not a ton of definition,

329
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: especially in his lower body, and he looks like a

330
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: small forward for a basketball team. And really it makes

331
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: sense because at that basketball is just focused most of

332
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: his life. And so he got to high school and uh,

333
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: you know, really gave football a chance, and so you know,

334
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: it's it's tough with him because, yeah, is he a

335
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: sub package guy? Can he do enough? Uh? Can he

336
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: grow enough to be a true run stop at the

337
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: next level? Um? What will? McDonald's a tough one on

338
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: the interior. I think that's where we've seen, i think,

339
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: more consistency than than the edge rushers, um you know Northwestern. Yeah,

340
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: he's been he's been outstanding for a guy that's not

341
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: very tall. He's really long. It's kind of disproportionate, but

342
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: I mean it kind of works for him. So hard

343
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: guy to move in the run game because he you know,

344
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: he's so built so close to the ground. But uh,

345
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: once he gets his length out and he's able to,

346
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, keep blockers from reaching him, it's really impressive. Um.

347
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: Kiano Benton, I think, yeah, he's been the best defensive

348
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: lineman here probably he at Wisconsin playing in that three

349
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: man front as a nose tackle. We know he can

350
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: stop the run. It's just okay. You know, in my

351
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: report I wrote, you know pass rushed potential, it's definitely there,

352
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: you know, just haven't seen it well. Here he's had

353
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: a chance to show it where you see that one

354
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: gap quickness, you see the ability to use a different

355
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: swim and ripen moves uh and just beat guys down

356
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: with power. So I think he's been really good. And

357
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: then Carl Brooks Bowling Green. They used him as an

358
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: edge rusher at Bowling Green at three pounds. Here he's

359
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: been more of that undertackle, playing over the B gap,

360
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 1: and I thought he's been really really good. It doesn't

361
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: have a lot of length, but he's so quick with

362
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: his hands that he's able to win quickly. And that's

363
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: something that's really been been evident. And he's one on ones.

364
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: I always struggle with linebackers at these practices. I need

365
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: to see them in game situations. But I thought the

366
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: one guy out thorout here is de Winters. I think

367
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: he's covered Taj Spears a couple of times out of

368
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: the backfield pretty well. He had an interception at one point.

369
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: Any other linebackers to you really have shown out here

370
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: in practice? Yeah, I think Winners has been. Uh has

371
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: done a nice job. Henley in Washington State, I thought

372
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: has done a nice job. The most interesting linebacker here,

373
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: in my opinion, is Um, I've in pace the Cincinnati linebacker.

374
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: If you told me he moonlighted as a UFC fighter, I, oh, yeah,

375
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I mean, that's that's that's that's how

376
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: he plays. It's violence, it's play strength. Um. But he's smaller.

377
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: He's five ten um just under thirty one in arms,

378
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: so he's for a lot of teams that's automatic disqualified.

379
00:16:58,160 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: You know, he just doesn't have the measurables they want.

380
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: But when you watch the tape, you just see a

381
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: good football player. And when you watch him here in practices,

382
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: no running backs being able to stop him, and he's

383
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,199
Speaker 1: blitzing drills and pass bro he's so good downhill and

384
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: that shows on tape. He had twenty one and a

385
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: half tackles for lost last year. Um. The big question was, okay,

386
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: Canny do enough in reverse where you know you're covering

387
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 1: guys tight ends, backs out of the backfield, And it's

388
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,719
Speaker 1: been a little mixed for him, but I thought, um,

389
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 1: I thought he's done a nice job. So Ivan Pace,

390
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: I don't know where this guy is gonna get drafted.

391
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 1: You know we saw it last year, goy like Malcolm

392
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: Rodriguez Fell, who was just a good football player. Ivan

393
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: Paid wouldn't be surprised if he also follows to the

394
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: fifth round because he just falls short and what a

395
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: lot of people are looking for physically. But watch the tape,

396
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 1: watched the drills, you have the Senior Bowl, and tell

397
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: me he's just not a good football player. All right,

398
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: let's go to the second there. You already mentioned the

399
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 1: South Carolina corner. I agree, as has done a real

400
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: nice job. I thought Riley Moss is showing off his speed.

401
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: He's carried some guys down the field and not committed

402
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: defensive penalties flags him in all over the place. And

403
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: he's what I wonder it has been crazy, Julius Brent's.

404
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: I think he's had some really good reps and then

405
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: he's had some other reps for it has not looked

406
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 1: so great. And then I'll throw the Stanford quarnerback out there.

407
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 1: Blue Kelly who had a pick, he jumped a couple

408
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: of routes yesterday, but in one on ones he's also

409
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: had a couple of issues. So those are the quarters

410
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: that that I've kind of liked. Who are the guys

411
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: that I jumped out to you, Yeah, I think that

412
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 1: that's Kaya Blue Kelly is the guy that I thought

413
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: it's had, especially these last two practices Wednesday Thursday, I

414
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 1: thought has done a really nice job with body position

415
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: and just just being there so he can you know,

416
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 1: if he's not making interception, he's at least disrupting the catchpoint,

417
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: making a tough on receivers, a finish knocking the ball

418
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: out late he had I think it was against his

419
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: former teammate Elijah Higgins where he did that in uh

420
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 1: with the red zone drills and was able to knock

421
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: the ball out for any completion. So, uh, Kaya Blue Kelly.

422
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 1: You know his dad was in He played corner in

423
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: the NFL for eight ten years, won a Super Bowl.

424
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 1: He's got that pedigree. He's a really sharp guy. Um,

425
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna test well, So you know,

426
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 1: I think he's a player that could go somewhere, you know,

427
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: top fifty, top seven five, and be a starter. Earlier,

428
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 1: pretty early in his rookie year all right's real quick safety.

429
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: I think Sydney Brown has been wonderful. He's done some

430
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: slot work too, in coverage, and he just he looks thick.

431
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: You just look at him. He looks like a thick guy.

432
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: And then Chris Smith, who I know, he's the safety.

433
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: He plays like a corner. He was doing one on

434
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: ones against wide receivers on day two and was locking

435
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: them down. Your thoughts on those two another, any other

436
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: safeties that you think have done a nice job. Yeah,

437
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 1: I agree with you. Sydney Brown him, he's uh. First

438
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: of all, you hear him before you see him. He

439
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: is a loud guy. He's getting everybody in position, he's

440
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: calling to the sidelines, you know, and it's just it's

441
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: impressive to hear him out there, uh, using his voice

442
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: and clearly being a leader. And you know, I'll be

443
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: honest with you, I wasn't wowed by him, just his tape.

444
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: And when I saw he was invited to the Senior Bowl,

445
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 1: my first reaction was like, oh, well, obviously they want

446
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: to get chased down here. You know twin brother the

447
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: running back. But the more you watched him, especially late

448
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: in the year, I was Okay, you know what, this

449
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: guy is here on his own merit. He is a

450
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,120
Speaker 1: good player. And then we get here and he's been

451
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 1: making plays single practice. Um, you know, doing a nice

452
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: job and one on ones against tight ends. Uh, he's

453
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: he wants you can tell, like because this is obviously

454
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: a soft practice. They're not tackling to the ground or

455

456
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,360
Speaker 1: there and you can tell he just wants explode through

457
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: the ball carrier and he reluctantly holds up. But yeah,

458
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,520
