WEBVTT - Bucs Insider Live, July 17 0:00:02.080 --> 0:00:04.520 Welcome to Buccaneers Inside are live presented by Miller like 0:00:04.600 --> 0:00:06.960 Casey Phillips and Scott Smith here and as always, we 0:00:07.040 --> 0:00:09.720 are taking your questions. Head on over to that Bucks 0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:12.479 Facebook page if that's not already where you're watching the show, 0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:14.760 that's where you can submit all of your questions under 0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:17.680 our live video on the Bucks Facebook page. I also 0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:19.759 love seeing how people end up in conversations on it 0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:21.560 as well with each other, which is kind of cool. 0:00:21.560 --> 0:00:23.400 So it's a nice little Bucks community over there. Head 0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:25.880 over to the Facebook live page. And as people start 0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:27.800 sending some of those in, I know you've got a 0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:30.080 new piece up that you're working on today about the 0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:32.479 second year players of what they're going to need to do, 0:00:32.560 --> 0:00:35.199 the jumps that could happen. So I want to hear 0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:36.559 some of those things that you know, you don't have 0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:38.880 to give the whole article people to read it. So 0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:41.640 we're a week away from the Rookies reporting. The Rookies 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:43.760 report a couple of days before the veterans, and that 0:00:43.800 --> 0:00:45.680 got me thinking about last year's Rookies and it was 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:47.680 a really good rookie class. I mean, the first four 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:51.040 draftees all produced a lot. Three of the forward starters. 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:52.919 And the one that wasn't really was Chris Godwin, who 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:54.800 everybody thinks is going to be starting the long run, 0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:58.120 he's just kind of a little bit blocked from playing time. Um, 0:00:58.160 --> 0:00:59.960 you know, there was there was only a six man 0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:02.800 class and Jeremy McNichols didn't make it and Stevie Twoe 0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:05.399 Colavado got hurt. So we're talking about those four guys, 0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:08.280 and you know, we're gonna be really focusing on our 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:10.000 new rookies here pretty soon. But I wanted to go 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:13.240 back and look at those guys, including Stevie Twoe Colavato, 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.160 and just set some reasonable goals for them in their 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:18.720 second season because a lot of times people talk about 0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:21.119 players making the big leap in their second year because 0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:24.000 they've had a full offseason in the NFL. They've also 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:26.679 had a season where they've kind of become acclimated and 0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:28.640 got used to speed the game. And so a lot 0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:31.240 of guys are good players, uh that end up being 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:33.640 good players make a big leap from year one year two. 0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:35.920 A good example for the Buccaneers was Lavonte David. We 0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:38.119 know how good he was right his very first year. 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.040 He was very promising. He looked like he was gonna 0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:41.959 be really good player, Like maybe this was the second 0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:45.080 round steal. But you know, the numbers were kind of pedestrian. 0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.080 You know, maybe eight hund tackles but not a lot 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:49.160 of big plays. His second year was that you we 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:52.000 had like five interceptions and seven sacks and made a 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.640 first team All Pro. That's the year to leap. Now, 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:56.960 we don't necessarily need any of our guys from last 0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:58.440 year to make as big of a jump as that 0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:00.760 to help the team a lot, but it would be 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:02.920 good if all four of those guys took a step forward. 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.559 So so if let's if I said to you, O J. Howard, 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:07.880 what would you guess is maybe what I might think 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:09.320 is would be a good goal for him, a good 0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:11.520 goal for him something I would guess, something around the 0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:13.519 lines of maybe some of the red zone stuff, because 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:15.160 that's I always I know that you always love talking 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:17.320 about that with the offense, and that's something they're focusing on. 0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:20.040 But um, yeah, I mean, just maybe some more that 0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:22.560 would be a good one. But he did have six touchdowns, um, 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.280 although they were a lot of more. Yeah, what I 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.600 talked about was his run blocking. Oh yeah, you know 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:29.600 he came in with the reputation, and he did a 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:31.960 good job at at Alabama run blocking, so sort of 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:34.959 a fully formed, complete y type tight end. And I 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:38.040 don't think anybody was completely satisfied with the run blocking 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.680 from the Titans in general unless you're but they all 0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:43.080 every our coaches all believe he's very much capable of it. 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:45.160 So with an off season at work on that, if 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:46.800 his run blocking is a lot better, that will mean 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.320 a lot for our defense. Yeah, did you want to 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.200 do another one? Where do you get questions coming? Yeah? 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:52.480 So I think we're having a bit of an issue 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:55.119 with our link on Facebook, uh not popping up live. 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:57.400 So I'm giving i'm tough fans to go over there. 0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:59.560 We're we're unfortunately at the moment, I don't think live 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:01.560 on face Book. So if you do have some questions, 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:03.359 maybe head over to Twitter. If there our way that 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.760 we used to rock and roll on Twitter, if you 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:08.200 want to use that hashtag bucks live on Twitter. I'll 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:10.320 also search there and kind of bounce back and forth 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.160 on Facebook see if we are able to get the 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.120 live stream. So we're just doing this on the fly 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:17.239 right now, professionals, I know, right, you never know live television. 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:21.560 This is what happened, so, um, yeah, you know, live things. Um, 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:24.680 So I know I already know before we even got 0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:27.800 any of the questions today or anything, um, that we 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.960 always get the stuff about two different things, the safety. 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:34.000 So I'm just gonna go and ask the questions because 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:35.920 I can tell that this is the stuff that people 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:37.520 every time. And you know, it's not like everyone gets 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:39.000 to tune in every week when we do this, So 0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:41.040 I already know every week we get the questions about 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.800 the safeties, who's gonna start a safety? And we get 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:46.880 the questions about the wide receivers. And I think, to me, 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:48.640 the wide receiver one in particular is going to be 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.720 really interesting because it's less about starters and who's not 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:54.000 starting and more about just all the different ways these 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:56.880 guys could get used and the different weapons there. So 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.520 I know you get tired of that one too, So 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:03.200 you talk about receivers. Okay. So there's a funny little 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.839 thing that happens every year around this time of year, 0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:08.200 you know, in the off season and then especially when 0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:10.960 training camp starts, where every day in training camp there's 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:14.840 another receiver, maybe a young guy who makes who makes 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:17.400 a big impact, and everybody's talking about them and you 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.520 get you get about a week into training camp and like, 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:21.479 we've got eight or nine receivers. How are we going 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.800 to possibly pair this down to five or six? That's 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:25.320 what we all think while we're watching it. I'm sure 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:27.240 the coaches don't think that way, because they're breaking down 0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.440 every single play, not just the ones that flashed to 0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:32.160 you and I, but uh, and then by the end 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.880 of training camp, by the end of the preseason, you 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.520 know you you're struggling to keep five or six that 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:39.600 you think make up your best core. I don't think 0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:41.240 that's what we're gonna have this year. Think we're gonna love. 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.000 I think it's gonna be legitimate. I think we're gonna 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.360 be legitimately looking at least eight guys and thinking, man, 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.320 I want to keep all of these guys. That's all right, 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:50.159 because when you started right off the bat, can you 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:52.440 imagine barring injury? And we should just say that for 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.240 any questions, So let's just get that all the way, 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:56.799 So forget the injury thing. Can you imagine not keeping 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:59.960 Mike Evans, DeShawn Jackson, Chris Godwin, and Adam Humphreys. That's 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.840 like a baseline four, no doubt, right, right, Yeah, of course, 0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:05.080 and then you just spend a fifth round pick on 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:08.240 a receiver that seems promising, big fast, Justin Watson out 0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:12.159 of pin Yeah, yeah, he seems like a really interesting 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:14.479 and yeah, we we are at least live on Facebook now, 0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:16.680 so people can't go there now that they know if 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.200 you don't have a Twitter or something. So that's five guys. 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.520 Fifth round draft picks aren't a lock. You know. We 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:23.960 actually had one that didn't make it last year and 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.039 Jeraman McNichols, but they make it more often than not. 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:27.719 So I'm going to say I think Justin Watson has 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:30.880 a nine percent chance he's he's a fifth guy there, 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:34.320 He's got five without a hardly even thinking about it. Yeah, 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:37.599 but then everybody's been raving about Bobo Wilson. Coaches do 0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:39.520 seem to really enjoy him. One of my favorite things 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:43.880 is listening to the wide receiver coach Skylar yell Bobo's 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.240 name all the time, like he I think he just 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:49.840 genuinely loves yelling Bobo. And so I have no idea 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:51.960 if this has anything to do with how he's doing 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.440 as a player, but I know, yeah, I'm like, you 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:56.160 can just tell that he's out there like that's right, Bobo, 0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:58.200 Like over and over. I feel like it's one of 0:05:58.200 --> 0:05:59.880 those games where we shouldtart counting how many times we 0:05:59.880 --> 0:06:01.640 can to hear. But that's probably a good thing. That 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:03.760 is probably they want to be you want to coach, 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:06.000 You want your your name in your coach's mouth, right, 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.120 and you weren't going to be talking about you. Uh, 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:11.000 you know Freddie Martine. I liked what Freddie did last year. 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:12.679 I thought he was a real asset to the team. 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:16.680 And he's one of those guys that can play all 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:18.560 the positions and that's a great thing to have as 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:20.200 a backup. You know. He can play the slot, he 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:21.640 can play on the outside. Where is a guy like 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:24.080 Bernard Ready, another guy we can talk about who might 0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:26.240 have a shot at winning the kick return job like 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.000 he did last year. Uh, he's more of a slot 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:32.360 guy period, you know, so he could he still could 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.280 bring a lot of value. But then Freddie is a 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:36.719 little bit more versaile. Plus Freddie Martino is a fantastic 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.120 special teams player. So there's now where when we got 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:42.320 seven there and I'm sure I'm forgetting somebody, uh you know, 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.400 so there's just oh, well, I eight if you can 0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:47.520 Bernard Reading. So I would not be shocked by any 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.240 of those guys making a team, except for the fact 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:51.800 that you're not going to keep eight receivers. So if 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:54.159 you if let's say Bobbo Wilson makes it again like 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:57.280 he did eventually last year, who's that at the expensive 0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:00.240 and does does that depth there mean they're more he 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.920 keeps six when five is probably the easiest number because 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:04.800 it gives you another spot, maybe another tight end or 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.279 another running back. But if you're forced to keep six, 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:09.279 maybe because one of them is a great special teamer 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:11.480 like Freddie or or a kick return or like Bernard Reading, 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.360 you're losing out on another spot. But if they're that good, 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:15.880 you don't want to let him go. Yeah, that's a 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:17.960 really great point. All right. Wait a question here from 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:21.040 Philip who said, what is the most intriguing new rule 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.320 in the league. That's a good question. Well, it has 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:26.800 to be the helmet thing, right, because nobody knows what's 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:31.160 going to come of it. I will say that maybe 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:33.320 the maybe intriguing isn't the right word for that one, 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:35.000 because it's just so much uncertainty, and I think a 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:36.960 lot of people are very worried about it. So if 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.520 I can answer that question again, get the mulligan here. Um, 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.480 the new kickoff stuff is going to be entertaining to me. 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:46.440 And I actually interviewed our special team's coach, Nate cats Er, 0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:50.360 and you know that's obviously the number one authority in 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.760 this building on right, Uh, and he obviously knows everything 0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:55.400 there is to know about that and what effect it 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:57.800 could possibly be. And even he says, we don't really 0:07:57.800 --> 0:07:59.720 know for sure yet. We might be five or six 0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.040 weeks in the season until we know which way this 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:05.400 is going. Is this favoring the coverage teams and making 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:08.080 returns less likely, or is this favoring the return teams 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:10.080 and we're gonna have a you know a lot more 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.880 big returns, more touchdowns. Uh, we don't know yet. So 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.560 that's I guess that's why. Was the word intriguing, Yes, okay, 0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:18.680 I think that makes it intriguing, whereas the helmet thing 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.480 is more like worrisome. Yeah, that's really sure what the 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:23.000 impact of that one is going to be. And we've 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:24.920 seen how things like the catch rule that when there's 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:27.200 a little bit of ambiguity, it can result in I mean, 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:30.400 it will be interesting to see. Um, I think the 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.880 catch rule would have a lot more impact on a 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:37.640 game with the ambiguity because of how often catches are 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:39.160 a thing. But now they cleared that up. But now 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:41.000 clear that up, and so hopefully this can be one 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:42.480 of those where they learned from that and it can 0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:45.720 be cleared up quickly and it doesn't end up causing 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.679 too much question. It doesn't end up costing anybody a game. 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.560 It's not a big defining character. Thing I don't like 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:53.559 about the new catch rule is that I have a 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.480 friend who's a Dallas Cowboys fan, and we've always argued 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:59.120 about the doz Brian playing Green Bay and always felt 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:02.040 like crying Alice of death. I just I just like 0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.120 to torture him, and so I always took the side 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:06.040 of they got it right. But I could always fall 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:09.200 back on well, I know it's it's maybe a silly 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:11.199 rule and it looked like a catch but by the rules, 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.440 which I can't do that anymore. So I'll just probably 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:15.880 have to stop being friends with that guy. Yeah, I 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:17.440 think that seems like the only answer. She's a Dallas 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:20.160 Covers fan, so it'll be easy, so not that challenging. Yeah, Yeah, 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:23.400 those people from Dallas are the worst. Darien says, do 0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.840 you see us adding depth at running back in the 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:29.360 future in is a D A R A and and 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:31.640 it's not former Buccaneers running back Darian Barnes, because I'd 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:33.360 be pretty cool that would be she was asking. That 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:35.880 would be quite some insight there. So are we gonna 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:39.240 add running back death? Yes, I don't see the need um, 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.319 you know, because Ronald Jones and Peyton Barber seemed like 0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:43.560 a lock as your primary ball carriers. We don't know 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:45.959 yet how how they're going to share the carriers, but 0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:47.840 I would suspect between the two of them they get, 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:51.800 you know, of the carries. Jack Was Rodgers is already there. 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.280 The coaches love Jock Was Rodgers. Okay, they love him. 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.839 They say he's so smart, he knows the game so well. 0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:58.720 He's like another coach on the field, and he can 0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:00.600 kind of fill in whatever role you need. He could 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:01.880 be your third down back because he used to do 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:03.960 that in Atlanta for Dirk Cutter. He can be here 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:05.480 every down and back. We saw he got a chance. 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:06.920 He had a couple hundred yard games in a row. 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.800 He's a really nice depth piece to have there. And 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:13.640 then Charles Sims you know, there's still that possibility there 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:16.440 of another two thousand fifteen type season out of Charles Simms, 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:18.800 where he was the perfect compliment to Doug Martin. He 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:20.640 caught a lot of passes. He's very good at that. 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:24.040 And if he's if he's allowed to focus on that 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.480 specifically as his role and he gets some playing time, 0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:28.120 I mean, he's still a useful player there. And then 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:30.040 I've said before on these that I kind of am 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.600 intrigued by the undrafted rookie Shawn Wilson, how a duke. 0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:35.839 So I'm not exactly sure what more depth at running 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:38.559 back would do for you, because you're talking you're not 0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:40.320 gonna find a guy right now that you're gonna bring 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.079 in and decide he's Here's he's your main guy over 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:47.560 Peyton and Ronald Jones. Right, So you're talking about a 0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:49.679 depth guy who's going to see limited snaps and we've 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:52.440 already got that Jack's ri I don't really think it's necessary. 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.640 That's a great point. West wants to know who's the 0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:57.880 favorite at right guard. I think I've asked to answered 0:10:57.920 --> 0:10:59.600 this before and I'll have to stick with the same answer. 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:03.600 So it does, and I'm waffling Caleb Benenock, Jared's before 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:06.360 we had to say if Jared Sweeze comes back then 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.040 you know from his health issue, then he'd be in 0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:11.040 the mix. But he's been released since, so that's not 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:13.240 a part of the picture anymore. And to me, the 0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:17.120 leader is Caleb ben Enock because the other options would 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:20.880 be Um the rookie, Alex Kappa and Caleb's had a 0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:22.199 couple of years now and they kind of like the 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:25.600 way he finished last season, and then probably Evan Smith. 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:28.240 But he's a nice guy to have as a guy 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:29.920 you can fill in every spot. He's kind of like 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.920 the perfect you know in interior reserve that you keep 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:35.679 active on game day. And maybe he'll he'll do more. 0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:37.480 He started plenty of games in the NFL, so maybe 0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:39.240 he'll prove to be the best option when it's all 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:41.120 said done. But I'm gonna go with Caleb right now. Yeah, 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:42.760 I think he's a player on the rise. Yeah, I 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:45.440 think that's a that's a good point. Colin said, what's 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.120 the story on Jordan Whitehead? Is he going to be 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.400 able to compete for a starting spot? Yeah? I think 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:51.240 he will compete for it. I think it'd be early 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:53.240 to call him a favorite just because you are returning 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:55.720 your two incumbents from last year. I'd be surprised if 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:58.360 Justin Evans is pushed off one of the starting spots, 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:00.960 and then the other one was Chris Konto and and 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:02.800 that's another player that the coaches like quite a bit, 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:05.280 Chris Conti and uh So, I think he would have 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:09.760 to have a pretty impressive preseason slash training camp to 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:11.920 unseat one of those guys. But I do fully believe 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.080 he'll get the opportunity to compete for a strange job. Okay, 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:15.600 and I think you'll see him on the field a 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.200 decent amount over the course of the season in one 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:20.200 way or another. Um, this is something named Stephen King, 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:21.760 which I'm sure he's heard a million jokes about that. 0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:24.400 I'm like, I'm really hoping it's as a guy named 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:26.360 Scott Smith. I know you know that there's a lot 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:29.720 of people Stephen Kings, and that's true. Um, he wants 0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:32.960 to know how the playing time could be split up 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:37.000 in the preseason with Winston, Fitzpatrick and Griffin. Knowing that 0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:38.839 this is that that to me is one of the 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.679 most intriguing things of how do you get everyone who 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:44.640 needs to be prepared, prepared. Now. Yeah, I imagine that's 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:46.960 going to be the number one question that coach Cutters 0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:49.920 asked when the when the games start to arrive, And uh, 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:51.600 you know, we don't know that yet. We can make 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:55.760 some educated guesses, I would think, you know, part of 0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:58.400 the part of the issues here is Jamis is allowed 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.120 to be here and play in the preseason game and 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:02.720 go through training camp, but he won't be around during 0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:05.000 the three game suspension. So if you are trying to 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.400 get him ready to play, you kind of have to 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:10.880 do it before the suspension, right. You can't just give 0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:13.960 Ryan's Fitzpatrick or whoever ends up being the starter all 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:16.040 of it because you're preparing for those first three games. 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:17.720 So it's going to be a bouncing act. I think 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.200 a little bit. It'll probably be a bit more of 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.880 a split than you're used to. And that third game, 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:25.560 when your starter plays the farthest end of the game, 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:31.520 probably Ryan Fitzpatrick, if he's the frontrunner, still gets that role, 0:13:31.760 --> 0:13:34.360 but maybe maybe Jami's gets a little bit more than 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:36.680 the second guyme would normally get. I mean, it's it's 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:38.560 tough because you basically have to get two guys ready 0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:40.520 to go. Yeah, it's gonna be really interesting, be a 0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:43.160 juggling act. We'll see what happens. Collins said, what's going 0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:45.240 on with m J. Stewart? Is he working at outside 0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:48.640 corner or the slot? Well, the problem was MJ was 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:51.640 a little banged up during the last part of the 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:53.520 off season there, so we didn't see as much them 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:54.920 on the field as we would like to to be 0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:58.240 able to answer that question. I know that they thought 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:00.800 his best chance to make an impact early would be 0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:03.080 in the slot, So I would go with that. Not 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:05.760 really a whole lot to back it up, right, Yeah, um, 0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:07.640 And we'll close with this. When we had a couple 0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:11.040 of questions back to back about the defensive personnel now 0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:13.360 that we have so many new guys. If you think 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:15.240 that we had darre and ask if there might be 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:18.440 more aggressive defensive schemes, And then we had someone asking 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:21.720 about if we might do more man defense compared to 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:22.960 some mail, so that we just had a few questions 0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:25.080 about if you think that we just got more personnel 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:26.800 to fit the scheme we already have, or now with 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:29.320 the new personnel, might we change the scheme. Yeah, that's 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.880 a topic we tend to come up with every week too. 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:35.400 Just like the safety's thing. And uh, you know, the coaches, 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:37.960 as you would expect, have they been asked questions like 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.160 that and haven't really been too specific with their answers. 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:42.680 They've been a little bit vague. And of course, I mean, 0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:44.600 why are you going to give away your strategy? I 0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:47.800 would say the answer whether it was getting players to 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:50.440 fit or vice versa, I kind of go down the 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:52.440 middle here and say, I think they just got more 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:55.040 versatile players in general. They got a lot of different 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:58.280 types of players that will allow us to do a 0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:01.520 more versatile approach on off. On defense, you got a 0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:03.880 you got a Carlton Davis type who you can press 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:06.840 more with, is a big guy against receiver against big receivers, 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:08.840 and you've got m J. Stewart who could be good 0:15:08.840 --> 0:15:10.040 in the slot. And now you've got a lot of 0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:12.600 different types of defensive lineman because of the reconstruction on 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:15.040 that right, So I think that you will have the 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.360 option of being more aggressive and seeing and more versatile 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:20.880 and more multiple, a word that coaches use a lot, 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:22.720 And if I are betting man, I would say they 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:24.400 will take advantage of that, and yes, you'll see a 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:27.360 more aggressive and a more multiple defense this year. Okay, 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:29.120 well it's gonna do it for us on Buccaneers and 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:31.160 Sideur Live presented by Miller Lighte. Make sure you come 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.080 back next week with those questions because then we're basically 0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:36.440 getting into training camp that we are finally at the 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:38.240 end of the off season time where it's all about 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:41.040 you know, predicting things and I wonder if and we'll 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:43.280 actually have some real training camp practices to talk about. 0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:45.120 So come back here next week with all of your 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:51.280 questions ready to go, and we'll see you then.
