WEBVTT - Who Will The Team Captains Be This Season? | Bucs Insider

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Um, good morning, Good morning Bucks fans. How's everybody doing.

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:16.400
<v Speaker 1>It is time for Buccaneers Insider Live, presented by Miller

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 1>like Casey Phillips Scott Smith here, and we have already

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:21.360
<v Speaker 1>had a little bit of time of camp. There's been

0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:24.320
<v Speaker 1>things happening as press conferences. There's so much to talk about.

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:26.799
<v Speaker 1>So this is where we always love hearing from you guys.

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Whatever questions you want us to answer, that is what

0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:31.560
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna do. So if you're not already watching on

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:34.280
<v Speaker 1>their head on over to the Facebook page and in

0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:37.120
<v Speaker 1>underneath our live video you can leave your comments there,

0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:39.960
<v Speaker 1>so as we give people chance to do that. M Scott,

0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I just want to hear. I know Ronald Jones spoke

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>to the media, and I want to hear what you

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:46.879
<v Speaker 1>gathered from that, what you've learned, what you thought about that.

0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:48.519
<v Speaker 1>And because of running back has definitely been one of

0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:51.279
<v Speaker 1>the positions that we've gotten, uh, probably more questions than

0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:53.519
<v Speaker 1>almost anything else about. So did you feel like we

0:00:53.600 --> 0:00:55.959
<v Speaker 1>got some answers there? Yeah, we actually started to get

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:59.200
<v Speaker 1>some clarity the week before when m Bruce arians spoke

0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>on a Zoom call and was asked about the backfield.

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 1>This was just after the signing of Leshawn McCoy. So

0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Bruce said very clearly that Rojoe is our main guy.

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:10.839
<v Speaker 1>Those are the words he used, and they would carry

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:13.280
<v Speaker 1>the load and that everybody else in that running back

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>room would be fighting for their roles. So we know

0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:17.880
<v Speaker 1>this now. The plan is to go with Ron Jones

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:20.319
<v Speaker 1>is your main guy, which isn't surprising. He was the

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.759
<v Speaker 1>starter for the second half of last year and Peyton

0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Barber has departed, so it would make sense that he's

0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 1>the main guy, and then uh, you figure out what else,

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.759
<v Speaker 1>how else to fill it all in with Keyshawn vaughan,

0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 1>how big his role should be, how good he proves

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 1>to be as a pass catcher and a pass protector.

0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Um Leshawn McCoy is you know, what does he do

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:40.480
<v Speaker 1>for you? Dario Goomba Wally, you know, he was basically

0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>our third down back all last year, so you know

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.040
<v Speaker 1>there's some confidence in him there. But Ron Jones is

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 1>the guy. And then Ronald spoke, probably probably because Bruce

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:50.280
<v Speaker 1>made a point of saying that they got Ron Jones

0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 1>on his zoom calling. What I found interesting about it

0:01:52.520 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 1>was when he was talking about the various things he's

0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>doing to be a better pass catcher, and he was

0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 1>actually pretty good last year. His ten yards per catch

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:01.440
<v Speaker 1>was really good and he had thirty one catches on

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 1>forty targets. He only had one drop, So there just

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:06.880
<v Speaker 1>weren't a ton of targets. And maybe with Tom Brady

0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:08.920
<v Speaker 1>in town and a desire to get their running backs

0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more involved in the passing game, the

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>big question is how much can Rojoe do? And I

0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:15.600
<v Speaker 1>think I think he's pretty confident in team is pretty

0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:17.639
<v Speaker 1>confident he can catch a lot of passes. He uh,

0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:20.400
<v Speaker 1>he says he's working on. Some of the specific things

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 1>he's working on is Tom Brady made a point of

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 1>telling him to run your routes like you already have

0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>the ball in your hand, so um. And then he's

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:30.320
<v Speaker 1>still been working with Tom mcnairon um and other coaches

0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>on pass catching techniques, how to hold his hands like

0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:36.239
<v Speaker 1>the diamond and all that, and then on recognizing defenses.

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 1>So you know, lots of times when a running back

0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:39.800
<v Speaker 1>goes out into a route, the first thing he has

0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:41.679
<v Speaker 1>to figure out is is it man coverage or is

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:44.080
<v Speaker 1>its own coverage? Because if it's if it's man, usually

0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.080
<v Speaker 1>keep running just trying to beat your man, and if

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.120
<v Speaker 1>its zone, you look for the space to sit down

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:49.600
<v Speaker 1>in the zone. And he wants to be able to

0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:52.359
<v Speaker 1>recognize that a lot quicker so that he is immediately

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 1>getting in the zones if it's if it's his zone, okay.

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 1>And I also wanted to talk about the schedule for

0:02:57.800 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the guys that that's something we've talked about, is this

0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:01.400
<v Speaker 1>training camp is a little bit different than in years

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:04.160
<v Speaker 1>past for obvious reasons. What do we know about you know,

0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:06.400
<v Speaker 1>what they have been doing, and then now this next

0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:08.359
<v Speaker 1>week or so, the way that things are going to

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:11.239
<v Speaker 1>change or maybe ramp up a bit. Yeah. Today, we've

0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:13.360
<v Speaker 1>been calling everything since they started going on the field

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:15.880
<v Speaker 1>for strength and conditioning work, and I think August first

0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 1>or something like that, we've been calling everything training camp.

0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.880
<v Speaker 1>But today was the really the first thing that looked

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:24.080
<v Speaker 1>like a real practice. I was down there this morning.

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>It's actually still going on, um and it's it's not

0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>a real training camp practice yet. It's more like they're

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.079
<v Speaker 1>speeding through the phases of what you would have done

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 1>in the off season with a few days each. And

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 1>the NFL calls this a ramp up period and these

0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>practices are like what they would have been allowed to

0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 1>do in Phase two before the O T A S.

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>The offense can run drills and throw passes and the

0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 1>defense can do the same, but they can't do it

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 1>against each other. And that's the way the next two

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:51.000
<v Speaker 1>days are. And then on Friday and Sunday it's gonna

0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 1>be like O T S when you can do it

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:54.880
<v Speaker 1>against each other. But of course you can't have pads

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:58.760
<v Speaker 1>on or hit each other. Can't do that until Monday,

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>and then you and I will be out there watching

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>what's going on. Yes, that is a perfect way to

0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 1>remind everybody. Shameless plug. We will be doing our training

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:08.040
<v Speaker 1>camp live show starting on Monday. We wanted to wait

0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.119
<v Speaker 1>until there was gonna be like hitting real couple things. Yeah,

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's what we're all about. So we're gonna

0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 1>be out there. It will look a little different than

0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 1>years past because of where we are allowed to be um,

0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>but we're going to do our best to try to

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 1>give you live shots of what the team is doing

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:23.800
<v Speaker 1>at training camp, and then of course we will have

0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 1>other content, other things we're talking about. So every day

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>of practice, which is basically every day, but Saturday's for

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:31.560
<v Speaker 1>a bit here. It looks like we're gonna be out

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 1>there at nine am to make sure you're tuning in

0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 1>for that each week. Um, okay, Starting with some of

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.039
<v Speaker 1>our fan questions, east I like this. He wanted to

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:42.600
<v Speaker 1>know who's the most intimidating defensive player east side m

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 1>east side, it was the most intimate defensive player on

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 1>our team. I assuming, yes, Uh, well, we got a

0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 1>lot of guys in our secondary who have really yoked

0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.160
<v Speaker 1>up over the offseason. I don't know if you've seen that.

0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:59.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Jordan White, it looks like DK Metcalf. That

0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 1>do is crazy. I mean he was always like that

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 1>to a degree. I think people always were kind of

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.479
<v Speaker 1>surprised when they would see certain photos and be like wow.

0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 1>But now, I mean, he just turned into the Hulk.

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>It's insane. But I don't think I can pick a

0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:11.560
<v Speaker 1>defensive back for this question. I think my answer would

0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:14.880
<v Speaker 1>probably have to be in Dominican su Yeah, I think

0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.760
<v Speaker 1>that's fair. I think I think I'd be most scared

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.720
<v Speaker 1>to have to be lined up across from Vita Via

0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:24.040
<v Speaker 1>because I think I would die if he came at me,

0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 1>destroy me. But he just he just seems like such

0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.159
<v Speaker 1>a nice guy. All the time. That intimidating is and

0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:31.880
<v Speaker 1>the first thing that comes to mind now it would

0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:35.599
<v Speaker 1>be intimidated on the field. But Dominicansu is uh, you know,

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:39.920
<v Speaker 1>he's he's a little scary, Yes, I think on the field, yeah,

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that's fair. Very nice guy, but very intimidating

0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 1>all the same time, Daniel, last special teams has been

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:47.880
<v Speaker 1>an area of the Buccaneers. Seemed like they can improve

0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:51.159
<v Speaker 1>from last year. How do role players look for Special

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Teams roles in training camp? I guess how? I guess

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.360
<v Speaker 1>he's asking, how do coaches find role players that could

0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>have Special Teams roles in training camp? And has anybody

0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 1>been standing out for a potential there? Well, this today

0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 1>was the first practice, the first time they're doing anything

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:07.360
<v Speaker 1>like that, so um, they stand out. They find guys

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>through drills like today. As soon as I walked on

0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:10.840
<v Speaker 1>the field, I saw them with a bunch of guys

0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:14.680
<v Speaker 1>that are Special Teams candidates and they were, uh, basically

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 1>doing a drill to see how good they would be

0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.520
<v Speaker 1>at that great that thing that Ryan Smith does so

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>well where he gets down on the punt and gets

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:22.440
<v Speaker 1>his feet up basically on the edge of the goal

0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:24.560
<v Speaker 1>line and stops the punt at the one yard line

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:26.680
<v Speaker 1>when it's bouncing all around. They were working on that

0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:28.120
<v Speaker 1>drill where the guy would run down there and the

0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:29.680
<v Speaker 1>coach would be rolling the ball and they have to

0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:31.760
<v Speaker 1>get around and get in the spot. So that's how

0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:35.120
<v Speaker 1>you find out you do those things. And starting on Friday,

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I think, is when they can start doing return versus

0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 1>cover and there won't be any hitting, but you can

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.320
<v Speaker 1>still get an idea of, um, you know, how well

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 1>a guy knows an assignment. Is he good at staying

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:45.800
<v Speaker 1>in the lane he's supposed to be in that sort

0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:47.560
<v Speaker 1>of thing. And then when they start, when they put

0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 1>on the pads, then they will have specific drills where

0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 1>you'll have people getting their chances getting you know, rotating

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>through reps of trying to be the gunner, which is

0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.120
<v Speaker 1>one of the main most important jobs, and special teams

0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:01.279
<v Speaker 1>on punts. The unders are the only two guys that

0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:02.960
<v Speaker 1>can leave at the snap, and those are the guys

0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>you see split out wine and opposing teams usually block

0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:08.200
<v Speaker 1>them with either one or two guys. We did see

0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Smith get blocked by three guys once last year.

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:12.720
<v Speaker 1>We said a lot about the respect they were given him,

0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 1>but how can how well can you beat that, especially

0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.320
<v Speaker 1>when it's too especially when you're trying to be two guys,

0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>How well can and how quickly can you beat that?

0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Because if you can be a gunner that consistently beats

0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>your blockers quickly, that's the guy that's going to get

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of tackles on punts and and you know,

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:28.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe cost some turnovers and so on. So the answer

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 1>to the question is through drills, lots and lots of drills. Okay,

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:33.960
<v Speaker 1>yas asked, do you see us getting any more depth

0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:36.040
<v Speaker 1>on the O line? And so I'll just add on

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 1>to that of in addition to whether or not you

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.240
<v Speaker 1>think we would be adding depth, how do you view

0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:43.239
<v Speaker 1>our depth that we have currently? Yeah, I have said

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.040
<v Speaker 1>and that I thought the depth was pretty good at

0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 1>at tackle. Um that's even true. It's a little less

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 1>true because Brad Seaton exercised his option to opt opt

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.120
<v Speaker 1>out this year. So that's one tackle down that so

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 1>far hasn't been replaced. UM, but you still have a

0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:03.160
<v Speaker 1>four there of presumably Donovan Smith and Tristan Worth starting

0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 1>backed up by Joe Hay who started a bunch of

0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>games in Indianapolis. And it's very versatile, can play a

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:10.679
<v Speaker 1>lot of spots on the line, and also Josh Wells,

0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:12.520
<v Speaker 1>who started a couple of games for US last year.

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:14.720
<v Speaker 1>So it's good to have that experienced depth there. And

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 1>you've got a couple of young guys too, But that's

0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:18.400
<v Speaker 1>four guys I think you can feel pretty good about.

0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:22.040
<v Speaker 1>The bigger question is, UM is on the interior line

0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 1>where you love, you're starting three, but there's not a

0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:27.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of experienced depth behind that, And I think they're

0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:30.680
<v Speaker 1>counting on some guys that they've liked, like Zach Bailey

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.240
<v Speaker 1>as an example, or a rookie they brought on named

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:36.640
<v Speaker 1>John Mulchum or Zach Shackleford of Texas. I think they

0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 1>like these guys, but it's not really not realistic in

0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 1>the moment to say that's proven depth. So UM, I

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know if we need more depth yet on the

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:47.440
<v Speaker 1>interior line because I don't know how good those guys

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 1>are gonna be. But on paper, that would look to

0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 1>be where you might want to find some And remember this,

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>we don't necessarily even if the Bucks don't add anybody

0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 1>to the roster right now, you're gonna get to the point, uh,

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.760
<v Speaker 1>whenever the final cutdown date is and I don't know

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:04.600
<v Speaker 1>if that's different, dude to everything's going on, but everybody's

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 1>cutting players. And that's what they call that eighth round

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:10.120
<v Speaker 1>of the draft. Well they that's what they call something

0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>like that. You know, it's another opportunity to pick up

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:14.440
<v Speaker 1>players of a veteran you like better than what you

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:16.760
<v Speaker 1>got is released and there's a little generally a little

0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>bit of turning at the bottom of the roster around

0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.560
<v Speaker 1>that time. Yeah, this could be one of those areas

0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 1>where you see how they were planning pre COVID and

0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 1>the way that COVID this offseason may affect how this

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.439
<v Speaker 1>works is they did have all these young, unproven guys,

0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:33.640
<v Speaker 1>guys like you mentioned Zach Shackelford and um, you know

0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:35.720
<v Speaker 1>John Mulchen that they thought, oh well, we'll get a

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of chances to see these guys and also a

0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:40.440
<v Speaker 1>lot of chances for them to get reps to you know,

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:44.280
<v Speaker 1>become that guy. And now you know where you felt

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 1>like you had all this potential young depth, you just

0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 1>don't know yet you may still have it. They may

0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:50.840
<v Speaker 1>still pan out, Um, but maybe you would have tried

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:54.080
<v Speaker 1>to go for potentially more proven options if you've known

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:55.439
<v Speaker 1>that none of these young guys would get it. So

0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it's sort of an interesting way of like how you

0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.040
<v Speaker 1>thought about building your team and the way that it

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.920
<v Speaker 1>could end up coming. Yeah, there's gonna be some difficulties,

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:03.880
<v Speaker 1>and um, I guess the only thing you can say

0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:06.160
<v Speaker 1>is that it's the same across the board for every team.

0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:08.600
<v Speaker 1>So the Bucks aren't any worse off than anybody else.

0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:10.600
<v Speaker 1>And I was just thinking about what I said about

0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:13.160
<v Speaker 1>when the rosters are all cut down and the veterans

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.040
<v Speaker 1>get picked up from elsewhere. Actually it may be a

0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit harder to do that this year too, because

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have a sixteen man practice squad, and six

0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:23.520
<v Speaker 1>of those sixteen spots can be used on players with

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:26.680
<v Speaker 1>any amount of experience. Usually, practice squad guys have to

0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:28.560
<v Speaker 1>have a fewer than two years of a crude NFL

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:31.320
<v Speaker 1>free agency credit. You have two, and then you have

0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:33.160
<v Speaker 1>two exception spots where they can have a few more.

0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Now you can you put six guys any experience on there,

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:41.280
<v Speaker 1>so it'll be easier for guys for teams to keep

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:45.360
<v Speaker 1>their veteran depth. That's sixty nine guys out of eighty

0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 1>that you're taking a camp that you can keep, so

0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:48.600
<v Speaker 1>there will be fewer guys out there on the wire

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>now that I think about it. Yeah, that's an interesting point.

0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:53.679
<v Speaker 1>Jermaine asked, with all these new veterans, who do you

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:57.040
<v Speaker 1>think will be our captains this year? I'm gonna go

0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.040
<v Speaker 1>on the limb and think Tom Brady will be a captain?

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Um in what a hot take? Allie Mark Pett was

0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:05.840
<v Speaker 1>a captain last year, wasn't he? I believe so, Yeah,

0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I could see that staying the same. I think he's

0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:10.920
<v Speaker 1>a respective guy that people listened to. Um did he

0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:13.600
<v Speaker 1>say just offensive captains are all? I think he said

0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:17.320
<v Speaker 1>the whole team? But yeah, has been kept for some time.

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:20.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why that would change. Um, you know

0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>that when you talk about new guys, we're really there

0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:25.280
<v Speaker 1>talking about a huge number of new guys because a

0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:27.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of the players that we signed were re signing.

0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 1>So Tom Brady is an obvious one. Is is Gronca captain?

0:11:30.600 --> 0:11:32.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I think that remains to be seen.

0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:35.120
<v Speaker 1>And then otherwise we're just really talking about Joe hag

0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.920
<v Speaker 1>And I'm forgetting two guys because there's only like five

0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 1>of them, Elliot Fry a kicker and Lashawn McCoy. So

0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I think the only guy that's obviously a captain out

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:46.600
<v Speaker 1>of the new guys is Tom Brady. Otherwise, I think

0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you see a lot of repeats. Okay. Daniel asked what

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 1>have you seen from Antoine Winfield Jr? Thus far? And

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe a better question would be when will we potentially

0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:58.400
<v Speaker 1>be able to see more from him and know more

0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.960
<v Speaker 1>based on how practices go. I've seen him um doing

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:05.000
<v Speaker 1>strength and conditioning drills, so and then today I think

0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:06.920
<v Speaker 1>I saw him feeling some punts, which coaches said they

0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 1>were going to give him an opportunity to do. So

0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:12.360
<v Speaker 1>there's something for you. There's something, yeah, But otherwise I

0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen him run a drill yet. I mean before

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:16.320
<v Speaker 1>they started doing any defensive drills. I came in to

0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:18.960
<v Speaker 1>do this with you, Casey, because it's more important than

0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:23.120
<v Speaker 1>that obviously. And so let's ask the question again in

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, a couple of calling to our writing or

0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:29.240
<v Speaker 1>question into our training camp live next week sometime and

0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:31.440
<v Speaker 1>by then maybe we'll sing something. We'll have better answers

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.240
<v Speaker 1>for you there. Um, this is interesting. A different Daniel

0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:36.920
<v Speaker 1>asked us, who do you think is our number one receiver?

0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Mike or Chris that's such a hard question to answer

0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:43.719
<v Speaker 1>that I'm gonna take a cop I'm gonna cop out

0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 1>a little bit here and say I don't think it

0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:46.920
<v Speaker 1>really matters. I mean, I think there're one A and

0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 1>one B. If you looked at it went last year. Basically,

0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:53.400
<v Speaker 1>Mike has been the man for six years, and then Chris,

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:55.520
<v Speaker 1>who had already taken a big step forward in his

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:58.520
<v Speaker 1>second year but was still clearly the number two guy.

0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:01.000
<v Speaker 1>In two thousand eighteen, basically, Chris just got to the

0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:03.800
<v Speaker 1>point where he was just as good and just as

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:05.679
<v Speaker 1>important as Mike. So you had one A and one B.

0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:07.960
<v Speaker 1>And if you look at it, Chris was the number

0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:10.040
<v Speaker 1>two and Mike was number four in the NFL and

0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:13.000
<v Speaker 1>yards per game, Um, there were times last year where

0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Mike was had the most yards and then Chris, and

0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:16.880
<v Speaker 1>then Mike passed me in and Chris passed him again.

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 1>By the end of the year, Chris had more, but

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>he also had one more game. Um, I don't think

0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.520
<v Speaker 1>there's a one there. I really don't. I called that

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:25.000
<v Speaker 1>a cop out if you want, but I just think

0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.200
<v Speaker 1>it's one A and one B. And you know, I

0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.080
<v Speaker 1>think we've joked about the game. I think he was

0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 1>in Detroit where we went into the game, or maybe

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:34.320
<v Speaker 1>it was Tennessee. I can it was at Detroit where

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:38.559
<v Speaker 1>or Atlanta maybe we went into the game. And um,

0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Mike was close to get into a thousand and it

0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:43.160
<v Speaker 1>would have been his six thousand yards season to start

0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:46.199
<v Speaker 1>his career, which only Grandy Moss had done before, and

0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:48.280
<v Speaker 1>he was like eleven yards away from getting it, and

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Chris was like a hundred fifty yards away. But in

0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:52.600
<v Speaker 1>that game, Chris got there first because he had a

0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:54.880
<v Speaker 1>bunch of huge plays right off the bat, and then

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Mike got there too. So that was a game where

0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:58.439
<v Speaker 1>where Chris had a huge game. But there were other

0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.319
<v Speaker 1>games were Mike had a huge game and then every

0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:02.080
<v Speaker 1>now and then, like against the Rams, they both had

0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 1>huge games and the Bucks scored fifty five points. So

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:07.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, again one A and one B in my mind,

0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:10.120
<v Speaker 1>again a great problem to have. Richard asked, who do

0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:13.520
<v Speaker 1>you think replaces m J. Stewart. Well, by the end

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:16.880
<v Speaker 1>of last year, m J. Stewart wasn't wasn't It was

0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 1>basically a healthy scratch. So there isn't a role in

0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:22.040
<v Speaker 1>the defense that needs to be replaced. Um, you had

0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 1>Carlton Davis starting on one side, and coach Areas recently

0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 1>claimed he thought Carlton Davis was a top ten corner

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.360
<v Speaker 1>in the league, which is high praise. Um, you had

0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Sean Murphy Bunny starting on the outside and then moving

0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:36.080
<v Speaker 1>into the slot in the nickel, which is actually what

0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 1>you played the most. So Jamal Dean was essentially an

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.520
<v Speaker 1>outside starter. So you've got all that back. Um, you

0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:44.000
<v Speaker 1>also have Ryan Smith and Massey Wilkins, and I think

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>they like that kid from Oklahoma, Parnell Motley. So um,

0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:51.600
<v Speaker 1>replacing m J as a corner on the roster would

0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 1>just come from one of those guys. Uh, there isn't

0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.760
<v Speaker 1>really a role that has to be replaced at this moment. Okay,

0:14:57.800 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 1>and we'll close it this one. Chris asked, how do

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 1>they plan to use all three tight ends? Do you

0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:05.040
<v Speaker 1>think we will see three tight end sets? That's a

0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:07.760
<v Speaker 1>good question, and coach Arias did say at one point

0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:10.200
<v Speaker 1>we will use three tight ensets, but I don't really

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:11.920
<v Speaker 1>think you're going to see that a lot as part

0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:16.400
<v Speaker 1>of your base offense. Three tighten sets are usually short yardage, um,

0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, goal line stuff, and sometimes the third tight

0:15:19.280 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 1>end isn't even a tight end. It's an offensive linement, So, um, you,

0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:25.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you're gonna see a ton of that.

0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 1>We we had I think I counted up. I think

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:29.680
<v Speaker 1>we had fifty four or fifty nine snaps all of

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.040
<v Speaker 1>last year with three tight ends on the field. So

0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:33.760
<v Speaker 1>it's just not something to use a lot. What I

0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:35.760
<v Speaker 1>do think you'll see a lot of, and more than

0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:38.240
<v Speaker 1>last year, is two tight ensets or what they call

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.920
<v Speaker 1>twelve personnel, And um, we use that twenty percent of

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the time last year, which actually was a little higher

0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 1>than the league average, so they already reutilizing that, but

0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:49.160
<v Speaker 1>coaches said, we'll probably see that a little bit more.

0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.240
<v Speaker 1>So maybe if it was I would think it was

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:52.880
<v Speaker 1>about fifty nine percent. At the time they were in

0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:56.120
<v Speaker 1>eleven personnel, which is three receivers and twenty percent of

0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:58.840
<v Speaker 1>the time they were in twelve. You could see maybe

0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:00.440
<v Speaker 1>the eleven come down a little bit into the low

0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:03.560
<v Speaker 1>and the twelve personnel with two tight ends come to

0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:06.800
<v Speaker 1>mid to high, and then you just have different packages.

0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Gronk with O J, Gronk with CAM, o J with CAM,

0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:11.680
<v Speaker 1>that kind of thing. So yeah, you'll see some three

0:16:11.720 --> 0:16:13.400
<v Speaker 1>tight end, but I'd be surprised it's a big part

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:15.560
<v Speaker 1>of the offense. Yeah, that's a great point. Okay, well

0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna do it for us on this edition of

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.200

0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:21.640
<v Speaker 1>exciting news is this is our last one of these
