00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:04,640

Speaker 2: I'm Dan Hord and thanks for downloading the Bengals Booth

Speaker 2: Podcast BA Believe.

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 3: It or not.

5
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 2: Addition, as I talked to two Bengals rookies about a

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 2: hard to believe coincidence. First round draft pick Miles Murphy

7
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 2: and second round selection Dj Turner were childhood buddies and

8
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 2: the Bengals didn't even know it before the draft. Plus,

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: I'll check in with my broadcast partner Dave Lapham to

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 2: discuss the latest off season developments one week before the

11
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: Bengals mandatory three day mini camp, and I'll wrap things

12
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 2: up by discussing the open right tackle position with one

13
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 2: of the best right tackles in franchise history. The Bengals

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: the greatest thing since the Joe Burrow Foundation. The Bengals

21
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: quarterback is one of several players on the team who

22
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 2: is using his platform to help others. The primary focus

23
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 2: of Joe's foundation is to help families battling hunger and

24
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,199
Speaker 2: children dealing with mental health issues, and this week Joe

25
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 2: held a golf tournament that raised nearly one million dollars.

26
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 2: The slogan of the Borough Foundation is simple, Everyone has

27
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 2: a responsibility to do good, which is not to be

28
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 2: confused with the Derek Zoolander Center for children who can't

29
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 2: read good and want to learn to do other stuff

30
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 2: good too. Hopefully you get the movie reference. In any case,

31
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: Thank you to Joe Burrow, Sam Hubbard, DJ Reader, Tyler Boyd,

32
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: Ted Karris, Joe Mixon, T Higgins, Jamar Chase cal Adamitas,

33
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 2: and many others for all they are doing to the

34
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: less fortunate. Now let's get to this week's guests. As

35
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: you know, before the draft, the Bengals do exhaustive research

36
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 2: about every player they might consider picking. The scouts and

37
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 2: coaches talked to anybody and everybody to try to learn

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 2: as much as they possibly can about each prospect. That

39
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 2: was obviously the case with their first two picks this year.

40
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 2: Defensive end Miles Murphy and cornerback DJ Turner, And yet

41
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: there was something very interesting about that duo that the

42
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: Bengals didn't learn until after they were drafted. Murphy and

43
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: Turner have known each other since they were little kids.

44
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 2: The three of us discussed that wild coincidence this week.

45
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: If I understand the story correctly, Miles, your mom met

46
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: DJ's dad when they were in kindergarten. Is that correct, Miles,

47
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: I'll let you go first.

48
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, So, all Mama has told me was they have

49
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: known each other since it's kindergarten, first grade, grew up

50
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 4: in the same neighborhood, been playing together since they were kids,

51
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 4: been together since they were growing up, all through their

52
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 4: lives and you know, really once he started having kids, me, DJ,

53
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 4: my brother and whatnot, we just were just together the

54
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 4: whole time. And then probably I guess they are you

55
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 4: guys living with Yeah, Swanne, we live in Marietta, so

56
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 4: that's like I live on the west coast of Atlanta.

57
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 4: They're on the east coast of Atlanta. So they kept

58
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 4: in touch, and you know, we were talking for once

59
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 4: in a while. He went to Michigan, I went to Clemson,

60
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 4: and I guess really just turned.

61
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 2: Out, said DJ, what did you hear about Miles family

62
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 2: when you were growing up?

63
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: Not the same exact thing.

64
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 5: Kindergarten, first grade, grew up with each other, Yeah, I

65
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 5: mean basically yeah, and then we just was family friends.

66
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, that's been he.

67
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 5: Said, everything real, Yeah, just uh, they grew up with

68
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 5: each other and stuff like that, stayed in contact, they

69
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 5: was real good friends. And yeah, it just so happened

70
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 5: that we both got drafted the same team.

71
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's insane, the first round pick and

72
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: the second round pick of the same NFL team. I mean,

73
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 2: the odds of this as childhood acquaintances are astronomical. Were

74
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: you just wold when that's the way it played out? DJ?

75
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean for sure, But like I wasn't too

76
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 5: surprised because I mean, like when the draft was going on,

77
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 5: clause like, I mean, they take a corner and d N.

78
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 5: That's not really kind of crazy, you know, that's kind

79
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 5: of a combo you tape.

80
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: So I mean.

81
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 5: It was it's crazy that it happened, and all the

82
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 5: people and stuff, but the positionwise you look at it, like,

83
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 5: I mean, corner and d N, you know, you go together.

84
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,559
Speaker 2: So Myles, did you follow him all over the years.

85
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 4: I did, yeah, follow him of through our Michigan but uh, like, well, really,

86
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 4: like you said, just draft night, I was, I guess

87
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 4: the Thursday got drafted to Cincinnati, celebrating all of that.

88
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 4: Then Friday, Friday night, I was just chilling in the

89
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 4: basement watching the draft, man, I was. I was on

90
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 4: my phone and all all I hear upstairs is my

91
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 4: mom screamed and she started running.

92
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: And I look on the TV screen. I'm like, why

93
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: she's screaming? And then I see DJ's highlights. I'm like, oh, okay,

94
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: I understand why she's screaming now.

95
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 4: So I go upstairs and she's on the phone trying

96
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: to call his dad, trying to call his mom. I'm like,

97
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 4: they're probably celebrated. They're not going to answer the phone

98
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 4: right now. Just you know, let him celebrate for a second.

99
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 4: But you know, it was cool though. It was for

100
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 4: sure cool.

101
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: My mom actually answered, yeah, she is. Yeah.

102
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 5: My mom answered like yeah, because because I was like,

103
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 5: who are you on the phone with right now?

104
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: She was like I was like, oh, okay, okay, yeah,

105
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: it makes.

106
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: Sense, So have your well your dad, DJ and Miles.

107
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 2: Mom had a lot of contacts since you two guys

108
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 2: were taken uh.

109
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 5: A little bit, yeah, I mean yeah, for sure. I

110
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 5: mean they always stay in contact, even when it just

111
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 5: will happened. And they both came the same weekend, and

112
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 5: so like when they came, they moved helped me move

113
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 5: me in, and then it was helping him move in

114
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 5: and all that kind of stuff. And they was here,

115
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 5: so they saw each other up here and since ninety.

116
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: So so this pictures made the rounds. If you two

117
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 2: guys as kids, I don't know if you were eight

118
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: or ten or how old you were, but you're at

119
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 2: a you're the childhood birthday party together, which is just crazy.

120
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: It was I don't know what it was.

121
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 2: I don't know how old I was.

122
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: I have no idea.

123
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 2: But some of these agents had the picture with whose agent?

124
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: Uh nah nah, my my dad, we had the picture.

125
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 5: But then my agent had the picture too, and so

126
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 5: he sent it to somebody in the Bengals and then

127
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 5: asked when it just took off?

128
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: But like obviously, I mean we had the pictures forever.

129
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: You know, are you amazed that the Bengals had no idea?

130
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 2: I mean, they do all this research about you.

131
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 5: Guys, surprising I was surprised that they had no idea,

132
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 5: like none. I was surprised because the way they be researching,

133
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 5: I thought there were no something, But no, they had

134
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 5: no idea.

135
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: So oh, okay, is.

136
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 2: There a bond between you two guys from you know,

137
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 2: getting to know each other at least somewhat as kids.

138
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 4: About to say, like especially now, it's just been like

139
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 4: a just funny moment honestly, and we'll joke about it

140
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 4: all the time, but you know, really just building that

141
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 4: chemistry on the field, off the field, and then the

142
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 4: biggest thing for really for both of us learning that playbook,

143
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 4: trying to get that done right now.

144
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: So no, for sure.

145
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: I mean, you guys both had highly decorated college careers.

146
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: How closely did you track each other's progress?

147
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: I mean big all the time.

148
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 5: I mean, like I said, I was looking at going

149
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 5: to Clemson too, So I mean I definitely was watching it.

150
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 5: And there's a whole bunch of Georgia people from Clemson,

151
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 5: Like I know so many people on Clemson. So obviously

152
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 5: I'm turning the game on all the time to turn

153
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 5: whenever I could to watch Clemson. So yeah, I definitely

154
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 5: kept up a lot of well cle his career.

155
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 2: So, Miles, since you were taken before DJ, were you

156
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: thinking going into the second round? Hey, DJ, Turner is

157
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 2: still there, but that would be awesome.

158
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 4: I literally what I was saying was the front office

159
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 4: notes who they want, so they're gonna take soe. I know,

160
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 4: I have no say, but you know, it'd be nice

161
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 4: to have them, but they gonna take who they want.

162
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 2: So that's little what I was saying.

163
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: They go on.

164
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 5: You know, you have no Yeah, you have no saying

165
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 5: what's going on?

166
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: You just waiting for that call. That's all you care about.

167
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: So now that it's happened and your teammates hopefully for

168
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 2: many many years to come, how cool is this? DJ?

169
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 5: I mean great plans to do big things here and

170
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 5: so you know definitely both us playing in and locked

171
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 5: in trying to learn to play a book and you know,

172
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 5: ready to go.

173
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 2: Do you find it pretty quol as well? Miles?

174
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 3: I do?

175
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, just uh it's good to know like that,

176
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 4: I'm familiar, already familiar with someone. And then our families

177
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 4: are familiar with another person's family, so they're for sure

178
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 4: gonna I guess once they're trying to figure out the

179
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 4: parents section, they're going to be trying to coordinate how

180
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 4: that is?

181
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: So I saw a quote where Miles mom called your

182
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 2: dad Drago, which I know a lot of your friends do.

183
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 2: Are you going to call him Drago or do you already?

184
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 4: I just say DJ because I say DJ or mister Drago,

185
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 4: Like that's that is what I say.

186
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, No, I like, how DJ is my name? That's

187
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 5: that's how as that's my dad name.

188
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 2: So like that's why you're DJ because people call your Drego.

189
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 1: Right right, So he's literally Dreco.

190
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 5: So but then there's like three d days on the team,

191
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 5: and then from from high school and stuff, you know,

192
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 5: people in college and all that, people call me one

193
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 5: Jargo Drego one. You know, once people find out my

194
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 5: real name and not take off. But you know, yeah,

195
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 5: I'll go on all of them.

196
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:22,119
Speaker 2: From childhood buddies or at least acquaintances to NFL teammates,

197
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: Miles Murphy, DJ Turner, it's really cool. Great to have

198
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: you both on the team.

199
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 1: Sounds good. Desert.

200
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 2: By the way, if you haven't seen the picture that

201
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 2: I mentioned in that conversation, just do a search for

Speaker 2: off season program ends next week with a three day

00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 2: mandatory mini camp. After that, the players are off for

213
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: more than a month before training camp gets underway in

214
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 2: late July. For a look at how things stand right now,

215
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 2: I caught up with a broadcast partner, Dave Lapham. Let's

216
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: talk about the approach that Zach Taylor is taking this offseason.

217
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 2: A lot has been made to the fact that the

218
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 2: Bengals are not holding the maximum number of practices. They're

219
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 2: probably holding less physical practices than any other team in

220
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 2: the NFL. What do you make of it?

221
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,959
Speaker 6: I think that the players feel like Zach's taking care

222
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 6: of them, so they're going to take care of him.

223
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 6: I think that you know, they're putting forth maximum effort

224
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 6: at every single practice. I think they feel like they

225
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 6: have a coach that gets it and they're going to

226
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 6: do everything they possibly can to have success for that

227
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 6: football coach. And you know, it's interesting to me because

228
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 6: I look at some of it and so many guys

229
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 6: have chips on their shoulders. You know, there are guys

230
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 6: that want new contracts, so they're gonna give ultimate maximum

231
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 6: effort and performance. I think Jamar Chase has a little

232
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 6: bit of a mentality like, man, I missed those games

233
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 6: last year due to injury. You know, I'm gonna come

234
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 6: back and have a monster year this year, feeling like

235
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 6: a little bit of regret that he wasn't there, you know,

236
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 6: down the stretch, not due to anything other than injury

237
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 6: obviously that you can't control. But for guys have different

238
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 6: reasons to go out there and just put forth tremendous

239
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 6: effort and set themselves up for the best possible season

240
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 6: they can have. So I think it's shown itself on

241
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 6: the football field.

242
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 2: So when they started oh and two last year, a

243
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: lot of people were like they didn't hit enough in

244
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: training camp. Guys needed to play in the preseason more

245
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 2: than they did well. They ended the season with a

246
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 2: ten game winning streak until losing to Kansas City in

247
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 2: the AFC Championship Game. Do you think that reinforced in

248
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 2: Zach's mind that this is the right approach. We do

249
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: need to start better than zero and two. But the

250
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 2: bottom line is we finished the season relatively fresh, relatively healthy,

251
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 2: and we're within two minutes of Whenning are going back

252
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl.

253
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:09,959
Speaker 1: Yeah.

254
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 6: And I think part of that own to start, and

255
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 6: you know, the slow start in general, losing the first

256
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 6: three division games and everything. You know, Joe Burrow is

257
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 6: coming off with pendicitis and and now that's the straw

258
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 6: that stirs the drink. And uh, you know, I really

259
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 6: salute him for playing. You know, he was he was

260
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 6: not the Joe Burrow that we're seeing, you know, at

261
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 6: one hundred percent obviously, but he still performed at a

262
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 6: very good level. But it wasn't it wasn't his best level.

263
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 6: And once he rounded in the form off, they went so. Yeah,

264
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't I don't think you throw the

265
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 6: baby out with the bathwater, you know, I think you

266
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 6: I think you just still stay with what's your belief

267
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 6: is the best way to approach it, because I tell

268
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 6: you from experience, and it's even more so now. The

269
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 6: same number of games, but you know, change the preseason

270
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 6: games to the regular seas. It's a long season. It's

271
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 6: just a grind, it really is. And I think this

272
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,719
Speaker 6: football team has positioned themselves exceptionally well from a roster standpoint.

273
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 6: And you know, if you can you handle that variable

274
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 6: that nobody can hit. You can't control the injury variable,

275
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 6: you try as best you can to control it, and

276
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 6: Zach fields this is the best way to do it.

277
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 2: They've signed a ton of free agents over the last

278
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 2: three or four years. Money is obviously the bottom line

279
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 2: and free agency. But do you think this approach really

280
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 2: taking care of the guys so to speak, pays off

281
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 2: when he comes to free agency.

282
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, because there are no secrets in the league, you know.

283
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 6: I mean, everybody has friends on every single team, and

284
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 6: there's no doubt that I think. I think Zach Taylor

285
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 6: is universally known around the National Football League as quote

286
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 6: a player's coach. You know, a guy that is going

287
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 6: to take care of the players, isn't going to, you know,

288
00:13:55,040 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 6: burden them unnecessarily. Ego lists that it's all about the players.

289
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 6: They're going to do everything they possibly can as a

290
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 6: coaching staff to put the players in the best position

291
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 6: they possibly can to perform at the highest level they

292
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 6: possibly can and win as many games as they can.

293
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 2: I know there have been discussions among the coaching staff

294
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 2: about whether guys should play in the preseason this coming year,

295
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 2: at least a few series in one of the games

296
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 2: or something like that. But then we learned last week

297
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 2: that they're going to have a joint practice with Green

298
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 2: Bay before that preseason game, just one this time, not two,

299
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 2: since we saw what happened in the second practice of

300
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: the Rams last year. But when I saw that, I figured, well,

301
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 2: there's probably where your starters are going to see your

302
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: action or see their action. It's probably not going to

303
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 2: be in the actual preseason games. Again, did you feel

304
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 2: the same way I did?

305
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: You know?

306
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 6: When I saw that they were coming in. Coach Lafleura

307
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 6: and Zach obviously have a very keen understanding of each other,

308
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 6: and they totally trust how each other are going to

309
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 6: handle that joint practice and they'll get really good work

310
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 6: in without going over the top as such as what

311
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 6: happened in day two against the Rams. But yeah, when

312
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 6: when I saw heard that they were going to have

313
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 6: that joint practice, it came to the same conclusion you did. Said, Okay,

314
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 6: preseason game number one against Green Bay, I know you're

315
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 6: not going to see very many starters for sure, if

316
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 6: any and everything's going to be taking place scripted, go

317
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 6: after it, and I think both teams will practice at

318
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 6: a very high level. Now they won't, they won't, you know,

319
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 6: probably take people to the ground. There may there may

320
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 6: be a period or two where it's full all out

321
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 6: and some of those workouts that's been the case, take

322
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 6: them to the ground. But I think I thought they

323
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 6: got really good work against the Rams last year, other

324
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 6: than obviously when it got out of control with guys

325
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 6: taking helmets off each other's heads and squatting at them

326
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 6: and all that kind of thing. Other than that we

327
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 6: take that part of it away, you know, it was

328
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 6: pretty good football. And I think that'll be the same

329
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 6: against the Packers for sure.

330
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: So this is still a voluntary phase. Most of the

331
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 2: guys have been here at least for some of the

332
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: time during these voluntary workouts. We've got mandatory workouts coming

333
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: up next week. Do you think Jonah Williams will be

334
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 2: here for the start of the mandatory period.

335
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: I do.

336
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 6: I think, uh. I think Jonah is uh, you know,

337
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 6: he's coming. He's rehabbing, coming off that surgery. So even

338
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 6: if he's here, I'm not sure how much he's going

339
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 6: to be able to do anyway, but I think he

340
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 6: will be here. You know, I'd really be surprised if

341
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 6: he's not. Let me put it that way. Knowing him

342
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 6: to the extent that I do, and I think that

343
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 6: Frank Pollock and uh and Zach and probably everybody, uh,

344
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 6: you know, Coach Callahan, everybody involved, you know, feel like

345
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 6: there's a good chance that Jonah will be here for

346
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 6: those uh those mandatory practices, and I would be very

347
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 6: surprised if he. If he wasn't. Stranger things have happened,

348
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 6: you know, but I think, if I'm not mistaken, I think, uh,

349
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 6: he and his partner had a baby as well, so

350
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 6: there's that newborn involved and rehabbing, so he's decided to

351
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 6: spend time, you know, in that process taking care of

352
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 6: him himself and his family instead of being here in

353
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 6: the in the voluntary workouts.

354
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 2: It is voluntary, so for anybody that gets on a

355
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 2: guy thinking it's a sign of a bad, bad attitude

356
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: or something like that. I think that's overblown. There's a

357
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 2: reason there's voluntary periods and there are mandatory periods. And

358
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 2: another thing to keep in mind when it comes to

359
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 2: the voluntary periods, the guys on their second contract are

360
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: highly incentivized to be there. They get big bonuses for

361
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 2: showing up for the offseason workouts and so forth. So

362
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that those guys are not, you know,

363
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 2: being great team players, but they are being compensated to

364
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: be here.

365
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 6: There's no doubt, you know, and you don't. You don't

366
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 6: want to get nicked, you know, you don't. I think

367
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 6: you can be maybe you can't be fine, but you're

368
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 6: certainly not going to get the money that you could

369
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 6: have you could have collected by by showing up. And

370
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 6: I don't know Jonah. To me, he's I'm not saying

371
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 6: he's a throwback from a mentality standpoint, but I think

372
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 6: you know, obviously he had had an initial reaction and

373
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 6: a disappointment and all that that you can understand. But

374
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 6: I think when push comes to shove, Jonah Williams is

375
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 6: a consummate team player, and you know, I mean, you

376
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 6: go to the right tackle position and show that you

377
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 6: can play it. He's still going to be making you know,

378
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 6: a lots of money, double digit millions, you know, in

379
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 6: that contract year. And you go out there and you

380
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 6: show that you can play left tackle and you can

381
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 6: also play right tackle in the National Football League, that's

382
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 6: going to do nothing to take take away your value

383
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 6: as a football player in the offensive line. It's going

384
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 6: to enhance it.

385
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the guy that took his spot at

386
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 2: left tackle, Orlando Brown Junior. He's a proven player, four

387
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 2: time Pro Bowler, Super Bowl champion, He's a gigantic man.

388
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 2: I am amazed by the person. He is the most amiable, friendly,

389
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 2: happy guy I think I've ever met. What a great

390
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,040
Speaker 2: addition to the locker room.

391
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 6: He really is. I mean, he's always got a smile

392
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 6: on his face. I mean he's positive in every every

393
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 6: single way that you can be from football, not only football,

394
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 6: but life in general, you know. I mean, he's he's

395
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 6: just one of those guys. He's a he's gonna be

396
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 6: a huge asset on the football field, in the locker room,

397
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 6: in the community. He's they broke the mold and he's

398
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 6: one of those guys that is a rare, rare human

399
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 6: being and he gets it. He gets it on every

400
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 6: single level. Uh and and he has the it factor,

401
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 6: you know, And it's like when you have it, you

402
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 6: might understand that you have it and you don't want

403
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 6: to lose it. And people can't really define it, but

404
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 6: they know that that guy has it. And I think

405
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 6: he has that in factor, I really do.

406
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 2: So the practices have been pretty vanilla so far. There

407
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 2: hasn't been a lot of offense versus defense. There was

408
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 2: some seven on seven stuff today. Has anybody caught your eye,

409
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 2: any of the rookies, any of the free agents, made

410
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 2: you stand up and say, Okay, this guy's showing me something.

411
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

412
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 6: I think the thing that has impressed me is that

413
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 6: they've played at a high level of intensity. The tempo

414
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 6: has been really good, and nobody has shown that they

415
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 6: don't belong.

416
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 3: You know.

417
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 6: It's like everybody there, there's there's nobody that's that's out

418
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 6: of position, either from mental error or just getting beaten

419
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 6: physically in some sort of a matchup. It's it's really

420
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:30,719
Speaker 6: been pretty good competition out there, and everything's as advertised,

421
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 6: I think, which is what you're you're kind of looking for,

422
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 6: you know, but seen it in the past, have seen it,

423
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 6: you know, as a player. Guys sometimes you know, look

424
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 6: like Tarzan and and some of these drills and then

425
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,439
Speaker 6: all of a sudden, oncome the pads and end up

426
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 6: playing like Jane a little bit, you know. And as

427
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 6: the old saying goes, so the true tesla when the

428
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 6: rubber meets the road, is when the helmets and shoulder

429
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 6: pads come on and they go to training camp and

430
00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 6: and then that's the final, the final step that you

431
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 6: have to take. You know, a lot of times, oh

432
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,959
Speaker 6: he was in position to make that tackle, Well, all

433
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 6: of a sudden they put on shoulder peasant helmet and

434
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 6: they're not making the tackle. And they might have been

435
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 6: in position, but they aren't finishing the thing. But everybody

436
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 6: right now, when you're looking at it in shorts and

437
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 6: T shirts, every single person out there, from top to bottom.

438
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 6: And that's the one thing that has impressed me, I

439
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 6: think the most so far in the OTAs is the

440
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 6: depth of the roster. I mean, there's nobody that's like,

441
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 6: what the hell is this guy doing here? Everybody belongs

442
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 6: and I think everybody has something to contribute.

443
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 2: So last year at this time, we were getting our

444
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 2: first look at Hayden Hurst in a Bengals uniform, and

445
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: I remember watching him thinking, all right, this guy is

446
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 2: more fluid than C. J Uzama, similar size, similar speed,

447
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 2: but just gets in and out of his brakes a

448
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 2: little more fluidly. Now, IRV Smith Jr. Isn't quite as big,

449
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 2: but it's another guy where I'm thinking he's a little

450
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 2: smoother and a little more fluid even than hayden Hurst.

451
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know, you see him make plays where

452
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 6: you know, if the balls behind him, that's a tough

453
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 6: catch to make and to turn your body and be

454
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 6: He shows flexibility, he shows strength, he shows athleticism. I

455
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 6: think I think Joe Burrow is going to really really

456
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 6: like having him as an option to throw to in

457
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 6: that passing game with all the receivers that they've got

458
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 6: that he can spread the field with and let earth

459
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 6: Smith Junior work the middle of the football field. And

460
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 6: we've seen, you know, like you said, C. J. Zama

461
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 6: do it, hayden Hurst do it. There's no reason watching

462
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 6: earth Smith, the athletic ability that he has and the

463
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 6: football pedigree, the bloodlines and everything else he has, I

464
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 6: expect him to have a pretty significant season. I think

465
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 6: Joe Borrow is going to really like throwing the ball

466
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 6: to earth Smith Jr.

467
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 2: It's the first week of June. There's no Burrow extension yet.

468
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 2: Is there any doubt in your mind that this will

469
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 2: get done before the start of the season.

470
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 6: There's not any doubt in my mind, But I guess

471
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 6: would I'd be shocked if it doesn't.

472
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: I don't know.

473
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 6: I guess nothing shocks me anymore, but i'd be I'd be,

474
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 6: you know, surprised that you couldn't finalize because I think

475
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 6: both sides are eager, you know, to get it done.

476
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 6: But it's just a matter of closing the closing the

477
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 6: final gap, you know, and and getting that thing done.

478
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 6: Having negotiated contracts myself, it's the toughest, the toughest part

479
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 6: of the contract is that final that final step to

480
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 6: get to you know, you start to close the gap,

481
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,719
Speaker 6: close the gap, close the gap. There's a give and

482
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 6: take and then then everybody starts, Okay, well that's it.

483
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,719
Speaker 6: I'm not I'm not budgeting anymore, and just that final

484
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 6: gap to get it closed, whatever it is. You know,

485
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 6: there's one bargaining point that one side is going to

486
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 6: be you know, firm on and the opposite and on

487
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 6: the other side, and it's just that one final thing

488
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 6: to overcome whatever it may be and to get that

489
00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 6: contract consummated. So it's going to be interest. I'm interested

490
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 6: to see who goes who falls first, Herbert or Burrow.

491
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 6: But in my estimation, even if Borrow signs first, I

492
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 6: don't think Herbert gets as much as Burrow. If Herbert

493
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 6: signs first, I think Borrow gets more. If Borrow signs first,

494
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 6: I think then the Borrow is set and then Herbert

495
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 6: will fall in line. I just don't think it's gonna

496
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 6: be one of those deals where all right, well one

497
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 6: will sign, the other one will supersede. I don't necessarily

498
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 6: think that would would be the case, but we'll see.

499
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you put it that way, then there's really

500
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 2: no reason for a Herbert deal to hold up a

501
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: Burrow deal. Yeah, and Burrow deserves more. His team has

502
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: accomplished much more. Five playoff wins to none, a trip

503
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl to none. Herbert's got the better stats,

504
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 2: at least in terms of you know, cumulative numbers, but

505
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 2: Burrow has done more to this point to deserve the

506
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 2: better deal.

507
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 6: I agree, you know, and I think I think that

508
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 6: is the pecking order. In my mind. The only quarterback

509
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 6: that you know has had more success individually and team

510
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 6: wise is Patrick Maholmes, you know, And I think I

511
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 6: think Joe is Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow. That's in

512
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 6: my mind, that's that's the pecking order. And I'm not

513
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 6: saying there are other great ones. I mean, Lawrence is great,

514
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 6: Hurst is great, there's you know, Jackson's great. But I

515
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 6: think I think Joe Burrow should should fall, you know,

516
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 6: should be the guy right now until Mahomes goes to

517
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 6: the bargaining table again, because right now I think he's

518
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 6: seventh or something in terms of quarterback compensation. But he's

519
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 6: already gone to the table and gotten money and he'll

520
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 6: do it again. But I think Joe Burrow has earned

521
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 6: that place in the ranking system. I really do.

522
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 3: So.

523
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 2: We were among the fortunate folks invited to play in

524
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow's golf tournament for the Joe Burrow Foundation and

525
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 2: then attend the after party, which was spectacular, raising hundreds

526
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,880
Speaker 2: of thousands of dollars. It was remarkable. You know, Joe

527
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 2: has this saying we all have a responsibility to do good.

528
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 2: It's not just the saying for Joe Burrow. He lives it.

529
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 2: And I mean you talk about a twenty six year

530
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 2: old person that gets it, he is the epitome of that.

531
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,119
Speaker 6: He really is. I mean, you know, the thing, the

532
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 6: thing about Joe that resonates with me is, you know,

533
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 6: he does everything with class. You know, he does everything

534
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 6: in a first class basis really, and it's just everything,

535
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 6: everything that he associates himself with is gold. I mean,

536
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 6: he is minus everything. He touches his gold. And you know,

537
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 6: the fans just they just absolutely go crazy for an

538
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 6: opportunity to do something, whatever it may be with Joe Burrow.

539
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 6: I mean a day at training camp with Jimmy Burrow,

540
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 6: Joe's dad goes for you know, forty forty five thousand dollars.

541
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 6: I'm like, what the heck?

542
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 3: This is great.

543
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 6: But the thing that impressed me haven't been involved in

544
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 6: a tournament for you know, a good quarter of a century.

545
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 6: With the Down Centerm Association, there's a lot of work

546
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 6: and you know, shout out to Karencottell, who does a

547
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 6: tremendous job for the Down Syndrom Association. Joe's parents put

548
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 6: in so much time and everybody else committee. Those things

549
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 6: aren't easy to pull off, and I thought it went

550
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,439
Speaker 6: really well for the first time that they did it

551
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 6: pretty flawless and it was everybody. Everybody really I think,

552
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 6: enjoyed it. And it's going to be around for as

553
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 6: long as they want it to be around, I think,

554
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 6: and it's going to do a lot of good for

555
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 6: a lot of people, as they say.

566
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow hosted his fundraising golf tournament on Monday, and

567
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 2: a former Bengal standout hosted his on Thursday. Former right

568
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 2: tackle Joe Walter, who helped the Bengals get to Super

569
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 2: Bowl twenty three. He's been the host of the Goodwill

570
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: Celebrity golf outing for more than twenty years, helping to

571
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 2: provide employment and training services for people with disabilities. I

572
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 2: caught up with Joe before his event got underway. Joe,

573
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 2: They're on a ton of question marks on the roster

574
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 2: right now, but one of them is at your former position,

575
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 2: right tackle. The odds on favorite is probably Jonah Williams,

576
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 2: but he's played the left side in Cincinnati the last

577
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: three years, hasn't played right tackle since his freshman year

578
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 2: at Alabama. Do you look at this as a difficult

579
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 2: move for him to go back from left to right.

580
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 3: I, you know, not really. I think if he's really

581
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 3: got his mindset right and he's worked at the offseason,

582
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 3: I think he'll just really good at it. He's got

583
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 3: that type of mentality. He's a smart guy. But you

584
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 3: got to work at it right, and if he does that,

585
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 3: I think it does nothing but help him in the future.

586
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 2: Let's look at the pool of candidates for right tack.

587
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 2: You've got Jonah, You've got l Collins, who played the

588
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 2: first fifteen games last year, but then tores Ac, LMCL

589
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: and PCL on Christmas Eve. You've got Jackson Carman, who

590
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 2: hasn't had a great start to his first two NFL seasons.

591
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 2: Then you've got Cody Ford kind of a similar situation,

592
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,959
Speaker 2: but he's been in the league longer. Do you feel

593
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: good that out of that pool of candidates they're going

594
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 2: to get good play from somebody at right tackle?

595
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 3: Absolutely, competition breeds greatness, right, So you've got four good guys.

596
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 3: I don't know about Collins with his health right it's

597
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 3: going to be tougher for him to come back. But

598
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 3: with the three other Ford, Jonah and just for Jackson Jackson,

599
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 3: I think that'll be good competition and hopefully they get

600
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 3: a lot of reps and the coaches can see what

601
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 3: they've got. But if you want to play and make

602
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 3: money in the future, you got to be good at

603
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 3: right tackle.

604
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: So last year they have the same five guys start

605
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 2: the first fifteen games, and then in three straight weeks

606
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 2: they lose starters leading up to the AFC Championship game. Unfortunately,

607
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 2: it's kind of a deja vu situation for you. He

608
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 2: suffered an injury in the final game of the regular

609
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 2: season in eighty eight before the Super Bowl. What did

610
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 2: you think of how that impacted the Bengals as they

611
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 2: tried to get back to the Super Bowl.

612
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,959
Speaker 3: Oh, it impacts big time, right, you lose three guys.

613
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 3: I keep telling everybody, Now, this team on paper looks awesome, right,

614
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 3: but you got to stay healthy. And we weren't healthy

615
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 3: towards the end of the year last year. Year before,

616
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 3: we were healthy. So I think it's all about staying healthy.

617
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 3: I think if the line can stay healthy another year

618
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 3: playing together, now you're going to have that right tackle

619
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 3: mix where he's not used to playing with the guard right.

620
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 3: So they've got to learn that. But hopefully with a

621
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: full training camp and guys out there practicing.

622
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:55,719
Speaker 1: It will be good.

623
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 3: We'll be all right.

624
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: Did you have a bit of a deja vu flashback

625
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 2: last year when those got got hurt so late in

626
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 2: the season.

627
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: A little bit.

628
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah. It was tough because I knew what they were

629
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 3: going through, and I know what I go through even

630
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 3: today just thinking about not being able to play in

631
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 3: the big game and in the playoffs.

632
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 2: Or visiting with Joe Walter. What was your reaction when

633
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 2: the Bengals signed the number one free agent offensive lineman

634
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 2: available this year in Orlando Brown Junior.

635
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 3: I was shocked because there was no word. Nobody even

636
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 3: knew anything, and it just woke up one day and

637
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 3: there he was, and I went, that was one of

638
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 3: the largest pickups the Bengals have ever had. And you know,

639
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 3: hopefully he can stay healthy. And I know he's really

640
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 3: a smart guy and he's really into it and he

641
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 3: wants to be great, which is he's got that desire.

642
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 3: I think we're going to be good.

643
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 2: After they signed him, Jonah demanded a trade. He's going

644
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 2: into the final year of his contract. He's only played

645
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:53,239
Speaker 2: left tackle in the NFL so far. Did you understand it,

646
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 2: did you identify with it? What was your reaction to

647
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 2: Jonah's reaction.

648
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 3: You know, my initial reaction was I get it. But

649
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 3: the more I thought about it that same day, I thought,

650
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 3: go play right tackleing make yourself even more valuable right

651
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 3: because if you can play both sides and play both

652
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 3: sides really well, that's going to do nothing but help

653
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 3: you next year in free agency.

654
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 2: How confident are you that the Bengals, who win a

655
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 2: Super Bowl in the Joe Burrow era very confident.

656
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 3: I think they've got all the tangibles they need. They've

657
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 3: got folks on both sides of the ball that can play. Obviously,

658
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 3: in football you need a little luck and you've got

659
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 3: to stay healthy.

660
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: We're here at the Goodwill Celebrity Golf outing. You've been

661
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: involved with this for more than twenty years. How did

662
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 2: you get involved and why have you stayed involved?

663
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 3: Well, initially I started out, as you remember my Special

664
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 3: Olympics golf outing, and heck that was twenty three years

665
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 3: ago too, And so the folks at Goodwill were there

666
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 3: and they came up and talked to me and asked

667
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 3: me about it. And you know the reason I do

668
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 3: it is because I did the Special Olympics, because you

669
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 3: got folks with disabilities that are where than the athletics

670
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 3: part of it, right, And then when Goodwill came along,

671
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 3: these these folks put folks with disabilities to work, They

672
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 3: train them and then find them jobs, right, So it

673
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 3: worked hand in hand and it's been a great thing.

674
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 3: I love giving all the clients hell and I treat

675
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 3: them like anybody else. I don't baby them, and that's

676
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 3: what's fun about it.

677
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 2: Thanks for all you do. Thanks for the time today.

678
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:19,440
