It took till June fourth, but 6 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: we made it. 7 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: It's so hot, man, I can't wait till it cools down. God, 8 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: so dry, so full of it. It's so dry, absolutely 9 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: full of cloud covering. 10 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: Some moisture is what we really need, right, bite your 11 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 2: tongue because there will there is rain in the forecast. 12 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 2: That's pretty much the rest of the week. 13 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been a little bit of a little bit 14 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: of late rival. I will admit, even to me, who 15 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: is a staunch Western New York advocate, yep, whether or otherwise. 16 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, And you know, looks it's getaway time that 17 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 2: we're quickly approaching that part of the NFL calendar because 18 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 2: we have Mini camp next week and then it's sure 19 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 2: people zooming out of here, the players, chiefly because they 20 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 2: have approximately five to six weeks before training camp and 21 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: then it's on like Donkey Kong at that point. 22 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: Then, yeah, it's all hands on deck. Yeah, you kind of. 23 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: It's so fun to be a part of, you know, 24 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: particularly in this point in history, for Brownie and I 25 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: to be here every day and the season is so 26 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: it's steam rolls, right. I mean we've all we've all 27 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: talked about it, and we all feel it. You know 28 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: that bill season starts training camp and all of a 29 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: sudden you tumbling that you're tumbling downhill and it's man, 30 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: there's no stopping it. Uh, And it's it's just happened 31 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: so fast. That part of that is the all the 32 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: glacial pace that July brings. The last half of June 33 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: and July bring, it's like nothing going on. I think 34 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: that's I think that's deliberate by the league. 35 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: Well it's probably healthy too. I mean, even as much 36 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 2: as people are obsessed with the NFL, you can develop 37 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: fatigue for just about anything. Sure, so if it's in 38 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: your face. 39 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, the league does a nice job. I mean, 40 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: come on, let's say it's the best run sports league 41 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: in the on the planet. I'll die on that hill. 42 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: And they do the stuff that they the tenth Poll. 43 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: Events that we talk about that we our show centers 44 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: around in the off season, free agency, the combine, the 45 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: draft and OTAs. I mean, you just there's there's so 46 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: vastly different aspects of the game. People really look forward 47 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: and they're you know, they're junkies for all of those events, right, 48 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 1: And uh, it's nice. I guess it's nice except for 49 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: people like you and me who work through it. It's 50 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: nice then, man that Lee just stops in the summer, 51 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: takes a deep breath before they jump in with both feet, 52 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: and it goes right back to the front page of 53 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: the the finger quote front pages. No front pages anymore, 54 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: I guess, but the title page of the off of 55 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: the season. Man, it's right back in the center of 56 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: everybody's plate, right right through the fall and into the winter. 57 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: So it's nice. I'm I'm trying to decide whether I'm 58 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: ready for a deep breath yet. Not yet, Okay, I'm 59 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: ready to Well, I'm not talking about our show. 60 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: I mean, see later. I'm out here. 61 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: I can ride you through one more show. But I'm 62 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: talking about yes, exactly, I'm talking about just I want 63 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: to see the OTAs. I want to see some more practices, 64 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: and then I'll be ready. 65 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: OTA Week three is pretty much wrapped up at this point, 66 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 2: although Tarren Johnson, who was noted as having a red 67 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 2: non contact jersey in practice yesterday, confirmed to the Buffalo 68 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 2: News that he had surgery for a torn labram in 69 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: his shoulder earlier this offseason. That was the reason he 70 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: was wearing said red non contact jersey. Recovery time for 71 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: laborm tears in the shoulder typically go three to six months, 72 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 2: so it's anticipated he will be fine for training camp. 73 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: Mandatory mini camp, as we know, is next week, starts 74 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: on June tenth, which is a week from yesterday, and 75 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: then the Rubber will meet the road on a couple 76 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: of things. I think we all anticipate that Josh Allen 77 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 2: will be back in the fold for that. The question 78 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 2: is will James Cook as well, So we'll have to 79 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: wait and see what happens there since James Cook has 80 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 2: not attended any of the voluntary sessions to this point. 81 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 2: The NFL announced that NFL Network will be carrying twenty 82 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: one preseason games this summer, and there is one Bills 83 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 2: game on that docket, So if you're outside the local 84 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 2: viewing area here in Western New York, you will be 85 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: able to catch Buffalo's preseason opener on Saturday, August ninth, 86 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: it's their one pm game here at high Mark Stadium 87 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: against the New York Giants. So you want to get 88 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: your first look. And you don't live nearby, you know, 89 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: you're a transplanted Western New Yorker or just a Bills 90 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 2: fan who lives elsewhere. There's your first look at the 91 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five edition of the Bills. So that'll be good. 92 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: It's always fun and it people don't think about it 93 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: too much because, okay, there, you know, they go out 94 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,799 Speaker 1: and they'll take one their first look in person standing, 95 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: you know, a few yards away from Maxwell, Harriston and 96 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: Brownie and I do this too. Your perception changes of 97 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: them when you see him in person, and you know 98 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: it's Dion Walker comes out. I'm like, no, he looks 99 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: like he looks pretty good, you know, I was. I 100 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: was expecting kind of a big kind of lumber, you know. 101 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy was you know, he was a 102 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: was a fourth round pick, third round pick, fourth round 103 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 1: picks anything. Okay, he's gonna have some issues and stuff. 104 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: You look at me like, oh that guy, he looks 105 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: pretty good, you know. So it's it's fun. I mean, 106 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: you get out there so you can actually see these 107 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: guys and stand up people have done it. I mean, 108 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: Josh comes through that thing at training camp all the 109 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: time and he's like literally, he's like two feet taller 110 00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: than anybody, and it changes the way you feel about 111 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: the team and the individual players and all your value. 112 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: You know, we have value. You know, we're like everybody else. 113 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: We have our own opinions and we talk about them 114 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: all the time. But it changes it when you see 115 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: him in person. That's a fun It's part of the 116 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: fun of it. 117 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: We were watching Max Harriston yesterday and we both were 118 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: really liked what we saw there and. 119 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: We couldn't stop talking about it. He looked almost fluid. 120 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: Doesn't do it justice, I said. It looked like his 121 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: spine was on ball bearings. He was moving. He he 122 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: was moving fast, backpedaling and turning, like running, back pedaling 123 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: with his hips turned one way, turn around, back pedaling 124 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: with his hips turned the other way. And his head 125 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: never bob his head never wavered. It was like his 126 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: head was detached. 127 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 2: Which gives you an idea. He was floating smooths. So yeah, 128 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 2: that's no wasted movement with him. Yeah, we we've got 129 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: a top. 130 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: We'll get to the topic of discussion here today, but 131 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: he's part of mine. 132 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 3: Mm hmmm. 133 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 2: Looked really good yesterday moving around on the field, for sure. 134 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: Would I would argue he has the best pedal and 135 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 2: hip flip on the team right now already. Yeah, that's 136 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 2: how that's how athletically gifted he is. 137 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: I'm and I know this show, we haven't seen him 138 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: do anything. I mean they're running around in shorts right so, 139 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: and like we were all and everybody's still a little 140 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: bit gaga over a guy like Sauce Gardener. Listen, Sauce 141 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: Gardener could play a game for the Jets in shorts 142 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: and a T shirt and that that's not as much 143 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: contact as he's gonna get the whole game. He avoids it. 144 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: And that's why I don't like him as a corner. 145 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't mix up. 146 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 2: He's not remember Ray Davis running over him at the 147 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 2: goal line. 148 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: That's right, I mean, just he just doesn't want any 149 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: part of it. To me, that keeps him out of 150 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: the elite level of cornerback. Now, certainly he's an elite 151 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: coverage guy and maybe they say, well that's the job, man, 152 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. You got to be a football player 153 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: out there too. And you got to help your team, 154 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: and there's sometimes he just decided he didn't want to. 155 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: So we're looking at Maxwell Harrison and we're talking about him, 156 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: but it's shorts and T shirts. So we'll see. 157 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 2: Let's go around the NFL, which is presented by Kalida Healthy, 158 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills. Texans quarterback c J. 159 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: Stroud has not been throwing at Houston OTA's this week 160 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 2: or any of the other media viewed sessions. Head coach 161 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 2: Demiko Ryans, when asked about it, said the team is 162 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: not concerned and labeled Stroud's malady as shoulder soreness. When 163 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 2: Ryan's was asked if Stroud would throw at mandatory mini 164 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: camp next week, he did not answer it directly. He 165 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 2: also did not answer when asked if Stroud had any 166 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: shoulder treatment this offseason. He would only say he'll go 167 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 2: when he's ready to go. 168 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 1: You think he had it worked on. 169 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 2: I don't know what to think here. Coach Ryan's gave 170 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 2: indication that they are being very precautionary with this, but 171 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: to me, this is a red flag. 172 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: Well it is unless he had it worked on. 173 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's not at the end of his rehabilitation. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 174 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 2: he had a scope or something. If he had it 175 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 2: cleaned up, that's a that would be good news. 176 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: If it's not, you got problems, big problems, because if 177 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: he can't get through an off season and it's not 178 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: healed up without surgery and all, he's gonna get worked 179 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: on pretty soon then because he's got to. 180 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 2: Get right right. And you have to think about this too. 181 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 2: This is a team that to some degree anyway revamped 182 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: to their receiving corps. No Stefan Diggs, no Robert Woods, 183 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 2: two brand new draft choices out of Iowa State, and 184 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: Higgins and Jaylen Noel who were drafted, no reps with 185 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 2: their starting quarterback. I mean, there's there's miss time there, 186 00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 2: there's don't will time to be made up. 187 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: But if I'm a Texans fan, I'm not really clutching 188 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: my pearls until I find out that the reason he's 189 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: not throwing now is because this is a schedule they 190 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: set back in the day when they decided they wanted 191 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: to go without surgery. So all right, we're gonna wait 192 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: hold him out of OTAs then many by many. If 193 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: he's not ready by mini camp and hasn't been throwing, Yeah, 194 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: you got enough. If he goes in mini camp throws, 195 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: no problem, Yeah, then that. But if he's if he's 196 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 1: telling us he's not throwing because he's sore, that's me 197 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: they got. 198 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: That's not good. 199 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: That's not good. 200 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 2: Uh. The Pittsburgh Steelers talks with the Dolphins to acquire 201 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 2: tight end John who Smith is back on. According to reports, 202 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 2: there had been talks a week ago, but they died down. 203 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: But yesterday in Ota, Steelers free agent signeye tight end 204 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: Donald Parham suffered an achilles tendentear and is done for 205 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. 206 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 4: Oh my god. 207 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 2: So it has prompted the Steelers to reinquire about Smith's availability. 208 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: Smith's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, stated publicly that Smith's number one 209 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 2: preference is to remain with the Dolphins. I believe he's 210 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 2: a Florida native, went to Florida International in college and 211 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: would like to stay close to home. But as we know, 212 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 2: in this business, players very rarely make those decisions. 213 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: How about if you're Donald Parnham Parham, Yeah, going to 214 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: a new team, the Steelers, let's go. We got a 215 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: good contract, you know, and then bang done? 216 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 2: Stinks? Wow, absolutely thinks your season just went up and 217 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 2: small is horrible. Yeah, so we'll see what the Steelers 218 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 2: can do there and what it's going to cost. I mean, 219 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: they have Pat Fryermouth. It's not like they don't have 220 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 2: any tight ends, and Parham was going to be, you know, 221 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 2: the number two, maybe even the number three tight end 222 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 2: on the roster. John Smith is a more accomplished tight 223 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: end than Parham was. So I don't know. It seems 224 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: like more and more teams are trying to stock their 225 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 2: rosters so they can run twelve personnel a good deal, 226 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: and the Steelers probably a little bit more desperate to 227 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: try and make that happen now knowing they don't have 228 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 2: Parham for twenty twenty five. Dallas Cowboys corner Trayvon Diggs 229 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 2: appears to have missed out on five hundred thousand dollars 230 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: from his twenty twenty five big salary for not participating 231 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 2: in the team's off season program. Diggs has opted to 232 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: rehab his surgically repaired leftnee in Miami, not in attendance 233 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 2: for the first two phases of the off season program, 234 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: and he has not taken part in the OTAs over 235 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 2: the past three weeks. Per his contract Diggs needed to 236 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: take part in eighty four percent of the off season 237 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: program to avoid the five hundred thousand dollars d Escalator. 238 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 2: Cowboys mandatory Mini camp runs the same period as the 239 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 2: Bills June tenth to the twelfth next week, right, I don't. 240 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 2: I mean, five hundred k is a lot of money 241 00:13:58,600 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: for you and me, And no. 242 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: Forget we're talking got Trayvon Digs, not Steph So Trayvon. Yeah, 243 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: that doesn't bother me too much. I'm not concerned like 244 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: that at all. If the guy wants to cough up 245 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: five hundred grand or go without five hundred grand, and 246 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: basically is what it means, he can. When you're going 247 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: through rehab process and you got your off season plus 248 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: an established vet like Trayvon, you've got your people and 249 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: your systems and your protocols in place for rehabing and 250 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: living and eating and working out and rehabbing and eating 251 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: and working out and rehabing. So you don't want to 252 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: mess with it. You don't want to mess with it. 253 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:45,359 Speaker 1: Plus the Cowboys are probably certainly okay with it. 254 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 2: Save them. 255 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's five hundred bucks in their pocket, 256 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: five hundred thousand in their pocket, so and plus it 257 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that he's not in contact with them and 258 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: they're not sending him the programs of what they want 259 00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: him to do and all that, and so that's all. 260 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: That doesn't that doesn't bother me too much. I mean, 261 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: it's something, it's not nothing. It's a half million dollars 262 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: in value, but that's I don't think football wise, that's 263 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: a big deal. 264 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 2: And then finally, veteran offensive lineman Tristan Cologne is signing 265 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 2: a one year deal with the Lions after the sudden 266 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: retirement of center Frank Ragnow. A five year vet, Cologne 267 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 2: started seven games for the Cardinals last season, so Lion's 268 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 2: trying to provide some depth, although they already have rookie 269 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 2: second round pick Tate Ratledge taking snaps at center and OTAs. 270 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 2: So it looks like Ratledge is the answer for the 271 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: Ragnow absence due to retirement, and maybe Cologne is, you know, 272 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 2: a reserve addition for guard slash center. So Lion's trying 273 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: to take care of a vacancy there with a veteran 274 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 2: who was still out on the market. So that's kind 275 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: of around the NFL. Presented by Coalida health topic of 276 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 2: discussion for you today is which defensive lineman will lead 277 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: the charge this season for the Bills. You got a 278 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: lot of choices here, both incumbents who have been on 279 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: the roster, newcomers that have been added to the roster 280 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: both via free agency and the draft. But when we 281 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 2: get to the end of this season, which defensive lineman 282 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 2: is going to be the king of the hill among 283 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 2: this group from a production standpoint and all of that. 284 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 2: Eighth three, five point fifty one, eighty eight, five point 285 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: fifty two, five fifty those are the numbers that jump 286 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: on board with us. And we do have open lines 287 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: for you there, and we're wide open for your phone 288 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 2: calls here through the first hour of the show.

I mean, there's a part of 294 00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 2: me that wants to go with an incumbent because more 295 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 2: familiar with the system, knows what's expected of them, that 296 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 2: kind of thing. But then again, it's like, hmm, one 297 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: of these new guys, might you know like the world on. 298 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: Here's the thing we and we've been talking about it 299 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 1: this first segment we have we talk about this all 300 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: the time, and we talk about these We've talked about 301 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 1: these d linemen for their entire the guys who were 302 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: here like Epanessa, Rousseau at Oliver go down the list, 303 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: they've been here their whole careers. You feel like you 304 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: know those guys. You know they're you know their high end, 305 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: you know their floor, you know there's they're a known commodity. 306 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: And none of them have done this yet. 307 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean for I mean, if you look at 308 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: last year's season, you look at the twenty twenty four season, 309 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 2: Greg Grusseau was the guy that led that charge. Yes, 310 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 2: he had only eight sacks, but that led the team. 311 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: But oh by the way, he also led the team 312 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 2: and tackles for loss, quarterback hits and forced fumbles. He 313 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 2: was the king of the hill last year. He led 314 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 2: the charge among the defensive linemen. Now you can make 315 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 2: the argument that the defensive line is now more talented 316 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 2: and deeper, So to me, that could change the conversation, 317 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 2: and it. 318 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: Has some new players that are on bigger contracts. Further 319 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,959 Speaker 1: down the roster. You know what I'm saying that like 320 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: Hoyt Yep, Joey Bosa, those guys come in and Oginjobi. 321 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: Even those guys come in, they're established veterans who have 322 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: been signed brand new with some expectations that maybe the 323 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: players are and they're still feeling out how it's going 324 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: to work out for them here. So I think there's 325 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,959 Speaker 1: a dynamic there where these guys are going to come 326 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: in and kind of yeah, you're going to establish a 327 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: pecking order. And I don't mean it like, you know, 328 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: any confrontational thing or anything like that, but their personalities 329 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: are going to take hold. Their friendships are going to develop, 330 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: their professional relationships, their personal relationships, and there's gonna be 331 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,959 Speaker 1: a chemistry there that develops personally, professionally, production wise, and 332 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: then you know, every other way. I think it's really 333 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: interesting to think about how this is gonna come together 334 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: because there's a lot of alpha males in that room, right. 335 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: And then I think we also have to take into 336 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: account the rotational philosophy of the defensive line too. I mean, 337 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 2: no player logged more than sixty seven percent of the 338 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: snaps last season among the defensive linemen for the Bills. So, 339 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 2: and that was one guy, and I think it was 340 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 2: at Oliver. 341 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: Oh was it? I was gonna say it was Rousseau, 342 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: but it might be. 343 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 2: It was Ed or Greg. They were both kind of 344 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 2: right there at the top, and then there was a 345 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 2: drop off after them. But knowing the rotational nature too 346 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: could have an impact on who you might pick. As 347 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 2: we are asking you which defensive lineman will leave the 348 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 2: charge this season for the Bills eight h three zero 349 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 2: five point fifty one eight eight five fifty two five 350 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 2: fifty the numbers to get on board. Let's go to 351 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: the phones, and leading us off today is Judy in Buffalo. 352 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 2: He got first. Judy. 353 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 5: Ye, if I'm not mistaken, the Bills have been fall 354 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 5: over James Cook for another year. If not, yep, sot 355 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 5: behooves him to play with the Bills do as well 356 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 5: as he ken with a top natch quarterback, an offensive 357 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 5: line secondary none. So I'm not too concerned about this. 358 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 5: But the same point I want to bring up the 359 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 5: Ray Davis. I remember a game where Josh Allen was 360 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 5: in the end zone looking for desperation. 361 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 4: To throw a ball. 362 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 5: He threw a forty yards down the field and there 363 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 5: was Ray Davis. Why a backfield person's outside ou forty 364 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 5: yards down the field they caught a passed with two receivers. 365 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 5: I wonder if we are underestimating the power of ray 366 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 5: Davis in our offensive demeanor. 367 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 2: Okay, right, fair question. I would I would say that 368 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 2: you're referencing the Jets game down at Midlife Stadium where 369 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 2: Ray Davis had to start in place of Cook who 370 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: missed that game due to injury, and really kind of 371 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 2: carried the run game. As a matter of fact, they 372 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: set a tone with the run game at the beginning 373 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: of that game. They ran the ball like nine times 374 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 2: on the first ten plays and scored with as we 375 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 2: mentioned at the top of the show, ray Davis running 376 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 2: over Sauce Gardner into the end zone for the touchdown. Look, 377 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 2: Ray Davis, I think is going to help this team 378 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 2: for a number of years. He is talented, He is versatile. 379 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,199 Speaker 2: I mean he had receiving touchdowns and rushing touchdowns. He 380 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: was a factor in the passing game as well. He 381 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: is not as dynamic an athlete as James Cook. I 382 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 2: think that's the only difference that Yeah, but that can 383 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 2: be a pretty big difference. 384 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: Having control of a player contractually doesn't necessarily mean the 385 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: guy has to shut up and play. That's the whole 386 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: point of it. If the thing that always gets lost 387 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: on a lot of fans and a lot of media 388 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: is how difficult it is to play pro football if 389 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: you're and if you're running back. It is an absolutely 390 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: brutal way to make a living. It is. It's akin 391 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: to being a prize fighter and you don't get to punch. 392 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: You got the ball in your hand. You're trying to 393 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: avoid contact and the other team is not having it. 394 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: You're gonna get it. It's a tough, hard way to 395 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: make a living and you don't last long doing it. 396 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: So you have to maximize your time in the league, 397 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: your abilities, and your opportunities. And I know it's easy 398 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: for us, and logically speaking, it does seem for us 399 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 1: to say, listen, James Cook needs to go out and 400 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: play as good as he can, because then the Bills 401 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: will be forced to either sign him to a contract 402 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: he's happy with or franchise him or he's a free agent. 403 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: It's been the Bills policy, or at least their mode 404 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,719 Speaker 1: of operation, to let the guys go test the market, 405 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: say here's what we think you're worth, but we're going 406 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: to allow you to go out and test the market, 407 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: even if we lose you. We think that's best for 408 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: you and your career, and we're going to do that 409 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: for you. That's kind of been the way they've done. 410 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: It's what happened to Gabe Davis, you know, and there 411 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: have been others. So, Yeah, they do have control of 412 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: James Cook, but the only recourse he has if he 413 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: doesn't like what's going on is to withhold his services, 414 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: and guys will do that. It's common in the NFL. 415 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: If I don't want to go out there and take 416 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: a pounding, it's being a running back in the NFL 417 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: for less money than I'm worth. I'm not gonna do it. Yeah, 418 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: and you have to make that decision, leve We've seen 419 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: Leveon Bell do that in the past, other players and 420 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: other positions. They's it's their only recourse's and it's a 421 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: hard decision to make. Yeah, the Bills have control of 422 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: James Cook, and they can franchise and they can have 423 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: him for two more years if they so desire. If 424 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: they want to franchise him, that doesn't mean he has 425 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: to like it, and it doesn't mean he has to play. 426 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:46,199 Speaker 1: That doesn't even mean he has to shut up. He 427 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: can handle it however he wants. But that you know, so, 428 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: don't think it's just cut and dried, that it's all 429 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: The Bills can not sign him to an extension and 430 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 1: they don't have to think about it again. He can 431 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: make them think about it, Yeah, easily. So And it 432 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: comes down to brown Brownie's Brownie has He was talking 433 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 1: to me about James Cook before the Bills drafted him, 434 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: and you gotta love the guy. Man. He had a 435 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 1: He had a whale of a season last year for 436 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 1: the Bills. He was he was a force and was 437 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: important in a lot of their wins. 438 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 2: In their playoff wins. 439 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: In their playoff wins. Yeah, I mean the guy is 440 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: not just a guy. But and I say this all 441 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: the time, the difference between James Cook and just a 442 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: guy is not is not worth the money you have 443 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 1: to pay a guy like James Cook to give him 444 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: what he's worth. If he if you say he's even 445 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: the top five guy in the league, he's making twice 446 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: as much as he is now and he we would 447 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: you can get him in the conversation as a top 448 00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: three or four. Forget about top ten. So, but the 449 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: difference between James Cook and you can say what you want, 450 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: you can poop poo this if you want, but I'm 451 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: it's true to me. Derrick Henry, Saquon Barkley, James Cook, 452 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: who's another one, McCaffrey, Josh Jacobs, Josh Jacobs, those guys. 453 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: The difference between them and the Ty Johnson and Ray Davis' 454 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: of the world is not massive. It's it's about opportunity 455 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: and circumstance, and then it's about their talent as well. 456 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say that James Cook's talent allows him 457 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: to make plays by himself. He made plays in that 458 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 2: Chiefs playoff game by himself. He scored a touchdown that 459 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 2: was horribly executed by himself with two defenders draped all 460 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 2: over him. 461 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 1: You're talking about the over the goal line, yeah, reach 462 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: for the goal line? 463 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Yeah, he can make plays by himself. Some 464 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 2: of the other running can't do that as effective. 465 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 1: Well, you say they can't, but they don't get the chance. 466 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: And the this guy. 467 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 2: Played less than half the snaps for the team less. 468 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: I get that, I get that, but he also the 469 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: Bills also handed it off as much as any team 470 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: in the league, or I'm not as over. Yeah, they're 471 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: over fifty running plays, so I'm you know, maybe Ray 472 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: Davis doesn't reach the ball over at the one, maybe 473 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: he still gets in. Maybe Ty Johnson still gets in 474 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: even with two guys around him. I'm not going to 475 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 1: say they get thrown for I'm they're not gonna get 476 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: thrown for a loss. I mean, I'm just saying, yeah, 477 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: he was the guy carrying the ball, but he's also 478 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: the guy that was back there that Josh had to 479 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: hand it to. And I don't know that. I just don't. 480 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 1: There's just no way you can convince me that that position, 481 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: with the amount of talent that there is in the 482 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: game these days, that it's say what eight if he 483 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: gets fifteen million, and there's no way he's thirteen million 484 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: dollars better than the guys standing on the sidelines. That's 485 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: the point I've always made, And whether it's true or not, 486 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, but that's what that's my belief. Uh. 487 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 2: Getting back to the topic of discussion, which defensive lineman 488 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 2: will lead the charge this season for the Bills. To 489 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: the phones, we go into Issy in North Carolina, what's 490 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 2: up is he? 491 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 4: Hey, guys, how are you good? 492 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 6: And I think that this is gonna be aj Epeness's 493 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 6: coming out party this year because he'd never had anybody, 494 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 6: you know, helping him on each side, you know, the 495 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 6: line on defense and these two guys that we got, 496 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 6: somebody's got to free up aj so that he could 497 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 6: rushed to passer.

So, I mean it would be good if Epinessa 500 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: did have a big year because he's in a contract 501 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: year because last year, as we know, is a free agent. 502 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 2: Any sign a two year extension with Buffalo, so this 503 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: is year two. So if he can make it happen 504 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 2: this year and put up a big production season, it'll 505 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 2: be very good for his wallet. 506 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't I'd like to know is he what 507 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: you know, what you've seen from aj Panessa that makes 508 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: you think he's like a force waiting to be to emerge. 509 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 510 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: I mean he's coming into his four fifth year. 511 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 2: Let's see twenty years, sixth years. 512 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: He's coming into his sixth year. I mean, and he 513 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: had von Miller at his best and he said Greg 514 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: Russeau over there. He's had Ed Oliver and all these 515 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: guys and I'll say this too. We have said a 516 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: lot about Ed Oliver, about Greg Russeau, and about aj 517 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: Panessa and others who have played for this team. Wow, 518 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: we need them. All they need is some help up there. Well, 519 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,719 Speaker 1: you think those guys, why don't they help? You know, 520 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: we're waiting on one of these guys to become a force. 521 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: Not von Miller. He didn't always have a guy on 522 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: the other side of him helping him. 523 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 2: You know, he's kind of I mean, if you look 524 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 2: at his stats from the last three seasons, he's been 525 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: kind of the same person.

He plays well, he 531 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: gives him a full effort, he prepares well. He's part 532 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: of the chemistry that makes it go. 533 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 2: But I leading this group, I don't know. 534 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think that's his thing.

You like them all. 569 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: Even maybe the team I was on could have been 570 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: referred to more accurately as fruit loops. But but I 571 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: get the analogy. Yeah, we've talked about it. It is 572 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: a good roster. It is a good roster. And just 573 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: because you don't have a favorite, right, but we're talking, 574 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: we're just and you can call it.

I want to 585 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 7: go back to the Cook story because I called in 586 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 7: six months ago. I know it's the same crap called 587 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 7: in six months ago and I said, they really should 588 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 7: take care of him. You know, he's he's a good player, 589 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 7: and I think it thinks that he hasn't come to 590 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 7: the OTAs and I think he should have. But they 591 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 7: need to give him what he's asking for. Look, they 592 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 7: held what was his name? 593 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 2: Uh? 594 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 7: What was the one that I said the I can't 595 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 7: think of it. 596 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 2: In any event, What's what's the point you're trying to make, Cindy. 597 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 7: The point I'm trying to make is they need to 598 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 7: give Cook what he. 599 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 4: What he deserves. 600 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 7: Well, yeah, what he's been playing for. So you guys 601 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 7: six months ago said no, no, no, he's got a 602 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 7: gear before his contract. Well, look what he's doing. He's 603 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 7: not showing up to the OTAs. 604 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: And you know, I get it. Let me ask you 605 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: this Cindy, how good will the Bills be without him? 606 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,280 Speaker 7: You know what, I think? He contributes a lot. 607 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 1: Well, how good are they going to be without him? 608 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 7: Von Miller they kept for how many years? 609 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 4: And he was useless? 610 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 7: And I said that too. 611 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if he's useless, but I get 612 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: your point because he got hurt. 613 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:13,479 Speaker 5: Yeah. 614 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,840 Speaker 7: No, he just never did anything and never came to 615 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 7: fruition with this playing. 616 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: So how might James Cook be different? 617 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 7: James Cook has produced a lot. He has really really comes. 618 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 8: Floorwards. 619 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 7: He's been getting better every year he makes the plays. 620 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 7: So that's all I wanted to say. 621 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,959 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, fair enough, Siddy. I don't think it. 622 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 2: I don't think it's a case of the Bill's not 623 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 2: valuing James Cook. They clearly value him as a player. 624 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 2: I just think what their value is and what James's 625 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,720 Speaker 2: value is on himself are two different things, and clearly 626 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: there's too much distance between those two values to get 627 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,720 Speaker 2: some somewhere in the middle and find some middle ground 628 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 2: to get a deal done. So to just arbitrarily, it's 629 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,879 Speaker 2: easy as a fan, Cindy, and I don't mean any 630 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: offense by this. It's easy as a fan to say, 631 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 2: sign him for what he wants. Well, if the Bills 632 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 2: and every other NFL team did that, every one of 633 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 2: them would be over the cap by one hundred million dollars. 634 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 2: Just get oh, how. 635 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 1: Much do you need? 636 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, no problems, let me write the check. How 637 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:29,479 Speaker 2: much do you want? 638 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: Okay? 639 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 3: Yeah? 640 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: Sure, Like it doesn't work that way. 641 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: Not only they'd be one hundred million over the cap, 642 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: they'd have three players on their team. Yeah. So yeah, 643 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: I get it. Nobody wants to see James Cook not here, 644 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:50,720 Speaker 1: and they don't want to see him here unhappy. If 645 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: I'll say this, if I'm James Cook, as hard as 646 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 1: it is to hear, I know, I've got to come 647 00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: in and play and play well. If but leading up 648 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 1: to training camp and the regular season and once that 649 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: starts and you're you've got to be in the building 650 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: and you got to be going hard.

I'm gonna have 659 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 1: opportunities that A ton of running backs around this, a 660 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: ton of starting running backs who get a lot more 661 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: touches than me, who get a lot more receptions and 662 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: targets than me, would kill for the opportunity to be 663 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 1: in the spot that I'm in. And if I don't 664 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: kill it in this spot, there's not going to be 665 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: another spot that is going to allow me more opportunity 666 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:57,760 Speaker 1: or better opportunity, maybe more opportunity, more touches, more receive, 667 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: more targets, all that. But there's there's no better situation 668 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: for James Cook than the one right here. So if 669 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: I'm him, I disappear when it's voluntary, when it's mandatory, 670 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: show up and show up in a big way. That's 671 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: what I would do. I would put my best face 672 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: forward and make the best of it. I know he 673 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: has outperformed a rookie contract for a second round pick 674 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: in my opinion, for a running back, but by the 675 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: same token, he's playing behind an offensive line that lost 676 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: one game to one starter last year and for two 677 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: years in a row. That's the only time they've lost 678 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: time for starters. They've got an outstanding offensive line, they've 679 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,720 Speaker 1: got an MVP at quarterback, and they scored more points 680 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: than any team in the league through the regular and 681 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 1: postseason last year, scored more points than anybody. You've got 682 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: to make Hay in that environment. You've got to make 683 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 1: yourself legendary on that offense. The opportunities you get. Don't 684 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 1: blow it by coming here unready to play, or by 685 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: missing that opportunity by sitting out. You've got to take 686 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: advantage of it. As hard as it is to hear, 687 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: you've got to take advantage of it. 688 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 2: Let's get back to the phones where we're asking you 689 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 2: which defensive lineman will lead the charge this season for 690 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: the Bills and to Gary on a sale, what do 691 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:22,320 Speaker 2: you got for us? Gary? 692 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 8: Hey, guys, I all do. I hope it's for so 693 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 8: Uh that's what we need to do it. I mean, 694 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 8: they're paying him for it, and he's their biggest, strongest, 695 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 8: best defensive player on the line and not with those 696 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 8: rotations of defensive tackles. I think he's gonna produce. I 697 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 8: think he needs to. They're gonna win. He needs to 698 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 8: be the he needs to one of the leads the 699 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 8: charge to mocket and he's he's healthy. Bosa gets hurt 700 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 8: all the time. 701 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and he did it last year Gary, 702 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 2: as we mentioned earlier. I mean, he led the team 703 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 2: in sacks, tackles for loss, quarterback hits, and forced fumbles. 704 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 2: So he did it last year and the team is 705 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 2: thirteen and four. The problem was, once they got to 706 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:07,839 Speaker 2: the postseason, it didn't look like opposing quarterbacks were under 707 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 2: a ton of duress, with maybe the exception of Lamar Jackson. 708 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 2: They got to Lamar, he had a costly fumble and 709 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 2: a turnover and it swung that game. Outside of him, 710 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 2: Quarterbacks look comfortable for too much of the game in 711 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 2: the playoffs. 712 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: You think you're gonna beat Joe Burrow in the Cincinnati 713 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 1: Bengals without a pass rush and their offensive line is 714 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: compared to the Bills, their offensive lines and atrocity, and 715 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna play against those if you can't take advantage 716 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: of that, which the it's questionable. What are the Bills 717 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: could If you can't take advantage of that, they'll carve 718 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: you up. I don't care who you got playing in 719 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: the DBS in the defensive backfield, So you're gonna be 720 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 1: in these games against these top notch teams. The Bills 721 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: play six playoff teams from a year ago on their 722 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 1: schedule this year, and they're they're all divisions. It's a 723 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: wrecking the Ravens, the Chiefs, the Eagles, Tampa Bay, Houston, Pittsburgh. 724 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: They got them all. So you need those guys to 725 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 1: show up. I do like the point Gary Maid though 726 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: they've got some young guys rotating. That looks like they're 727 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 1: gonna have young guys rotating in a defensive tackle. They 728 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: need a veteran guy to come in there and say, listen, 729 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,399 Speaker 1: this is how it's gonna be. Let's go. Rousseau would 730 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 1: be a great candidate for that. Yeah, I agree with you. 731 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 2: He just signed the extension, you know, this offseason. 732 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,959 Speaker 1: So you know, if they if they could just put up. 733 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 2: The money now, you put up the next level of. 734 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: Production, right, if they hire got the right guys, I 735 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: will never forget it. Peyton Manning signed up back in 736 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: the day, signed a fifty million his second contracts like 737 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,439 Speaker 1: fifty three million dollars or something like one hundred three million, 738 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 1: something like it is, and people were unbel it was 739 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: like oh my gosh. And they and they sit to 740 00:41:57,680 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: a sit down interview with Peyton and they go, what 741 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,239 Speaker 1: do you do after you sign a contract? Lot? And 742 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: he says, I'm gonna go earn it. I thought that 743 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 1: was it was a really smart answer, really smart answer. 744 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: You don't hear too many guys say it though. 745 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. 746 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,359 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna make them happy they I'm gonna make 747 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: it look like a bargain. Let's go. You'd love to 748 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 1: see have a guy life. You pay the right guys, 749 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 1: that's the way they feel. I'm gonna make them so 750 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: glad they paying me this money. That's that's not everybody's 751 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 1: like that. Let's face it. 752 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 2: We have to take a break here, but more of 753 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 2: your phone calls when we come back. Which defensive lineman 754 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 2: will lead the charge this season for the Bills?

All right 757 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 2: back here on One Bill's Live, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker 758 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 2: with you. Which defensive lineman will lead the charge this 759 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 2: season for the Bills. Someone whose production will be going 760 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 2: nuts And you'll sit there at the end of the season, 761 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 2: going that guy is the alpha of this group, and 762 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 2: there's no doubt about it. Eight h three zero five 763 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 2: fifty the number to get on board one eighty eight 764 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 2: five fifty two five fifty. And to the phones we go, 765 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 2: and to Ali in Denver, what's up, Ali? 766 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 9: How's it going? 767 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 7: Fellows? 768 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 10: Things for taking my call? 769 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: Sure. 770 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 10: I think the way I'm thinking about this is, you know, 771 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 10: because we rotate so heavily. I mean, you said what 772 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 10: Ed played like sixty seven percent of the snaps. Yeah, 773 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 10: I don't know that we're necessarily going to have like 774 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 10: a clear guy who's like the dude until maybe the 775 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 10: end of the season the playoffs. But the way that 776 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 10: I'm kind of envisioning it is, you know, we know 777 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 10: what we have with our our existing guys, but I'm wondering, like, 778 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 10: you know, TJ. Sanders, Dean Walker, you know, if one 779 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 10: of them comes in and you know, takes Lamar down 780 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 10: or Patrick Mahomes down or whatever, you know, in a 781 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,799 Speaker 10: playoff game, you know, because we've you know, given them 782 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 10: time to develop and they kind of become that dude. 783 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 10: I don't know that maybe the statuet will reflect it 784 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 10: numbers wise, but I'm really really anxious to see what 785 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 10: those guys look like. And obviously we have really strong 786 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 10: vent leadership and we know that they are consistent producers. 787 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 10: But I'm going to be excited to see what the 788 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 10: rookies can look like at the end of the year. 789 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 10: And you know, maybe they are the difference that one 790 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 10: splash play that we need to to get to Santa Clara. 791 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:29,280 Speaker 10: So we'll see. 792 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's a good point. Ali. I like it. 793 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: It brings me to the point where, yes, it's tough 794 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 1: for a guy like Dion Walker or TJ. Sanders to 795 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: come in. 796 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 2: I'll forget land and Jackson. 797 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 1: Landon Jackson and last year Dwayne Carter, any of those 798 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: guys come in. And it's not so much about maybe 799 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: putting up a twelve SAX season or fifteen SAX season 800 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: from the defensive tackle spot. But you know when you're in, 801 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 1: when you're in the season and you're in your opening 802 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: night of the year and you're play the Baltimore Ravens 803 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 1: on Sunday Night Football when you need it, one of 804 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: those guys comes through. And then later on when you're 805 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 1: you're playing New England at home and New England scrappy 806 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 1: and you need to play one of those guys, the 807 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: same guy steps up and makes that play, and then 808 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: later on you're in You're Kansas City at home and 809 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,840 Speaker 1: you gotta have it and want the same guy again 810 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 1: shows up. Maybe they're not getting twenty sacks, but they 811 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: get four sacks that are game winning. They're they're putting 812 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: games away guys. Yeah, and when you, let's face it, 813 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: you get the end of the season and you know, 814 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: we had you know, Peyton Manning came in town the 815 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: other you know, a month ago and was doing a 816 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 1: you know, the thing about the Bills curse about not 817 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 1: being able to get to the super Bowl. Maybe they 818 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 1: don't lose their last game of the season again. Maybe 819 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: they just keep winning because a guy shows up at 820 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,320 Speaker 1: the right minute and the right moment on the right play. 821 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 1: I like that philosophy. Yeah, maybe you don't need a 822 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 1: guy that's gonna have a seventeen and have sex like 823 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: a Trey Hendrickson. But you guy that got a guy 824 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: that's got seven of them and four or five of 825 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 1: them are game winners. Yeah, that'd be kind of cool. 826 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 2: To Alan in Lancaster next, what's up, Alan? 827 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, Hey, my call is somewhat a development of what 828 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 11: the previous call had called about that. 829 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:32,879 Speaker 9: While it's very easy to pick Greg Russo because he 830 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 9: has been for the best the best tons of alignment, 831 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,400 Speaker 9: I would rather talk about what could be and I 832 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 9: wanted to focus on TJ. Sanders, and TJ. Sanders has 833 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 9: an asset that I think is particularly important to the 834 00:46:54,120 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 9: Bills because he is able to maneuver well in the interior. 835 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 9: And while we always talk about the offensive line as 836 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 9: being a unit, the interior defensive line is also a 837 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 9: unit unto itself. And where I am thinking is that TJ. 838 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 9: Sanders is a very good compliment to Ed Oliver, and 839 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 9: Ed Oliver, in my opinion, when they drafted him, I 840 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 9: had in my mind Aaron Donald, and of course I'm 841 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 9: that's a disappointment, and who is Aaron Donald anyway? 842 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:38,280 Speaker 4: No one else. 843 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 9: But at any rate, what I do foresee is a 844 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 9: possibility is that the interior between TJ. Sanders and Ed 845 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 9: Oliver can synergistically work together where both are more than 846 00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 9: the sum of its parts. And I've seen the potential 847 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 9: are really what this all is about, anyway, and that's 848 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 9: rushing to quarterback particularly, and I see that the interior 849 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 9: and pushing the quarterback off of his spot, pushing him back, 850 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 9: putting pressure through the middle of the line on the 851 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:27,400 Speaker 9: defense have a greatly desired effect where they could team 852 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 9: up and become like a team of sharks going after 853 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 9: the quarterback. Okay, and that's what I would like to 854 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:35,320 Speaker 9: see happening. 855 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 2: All right, that's a good call, Allen. Yeah, I mean, 856 00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:45,720 Speaker 2: I look, interior pressure has value. It's why defensive tackles 857 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 2: are so coveted, and it's why their average annual salary 858 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 2: has gone through the roof over the last ten to 859 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 2: fifteen years. I mean, when it no longer became necessary 860 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 2: to have a giant, space eating nose tackle in the 861 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 2: middle of your defensive front, and it became more of 862 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 2: a passing league, the players that were the penetrating get 863 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 2: up the field, force a quarterback or keep a quarterback 864 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,239 Speaker 2: from stepping up in the pocket or flushing them out 865 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 2: to the edges became valuable. It's players like TJ. Sanders 866 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,400 Speaker 2: and Oliver that you're after now. And the Bills have 867 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,720 Speaker 2: two such players and maybe have a third. And Dion 868 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 2: Walker will have to see he's a bigger guy, but 869 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,280 Speaker 2: he has penetrating ability as well. 870 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: And with the rotational philosophy, we talk about all the 871 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: time up front. It may have to look like you 872 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 1: say you'd like it to look, Allen. You may have 873 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:44,680 Speaker 1: to have guys who are better than the sum of 874 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 1: their parts. It may have to be that kind of 875 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: chemistry that and whatever player is the catalyst that elevates 876 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,800 Speaker 1: that to the spot, maybe the guy we're talking about. 877 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,440 Speaker 1: But you're right, I think it's hard, with the philosophy 878 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 1: of guys going in and out and in and out, 879 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 1: in and out, to have one of those guys. It's 880 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: going to be like, you know, a star quite frankly, 881 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:09,840 Speaker 1: because he's not gonna get enough reps. 882 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 2: Gotta take a break here. When we return, second hour 883 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 2: of the show is going to begin with Pro Football 884 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 2: Focus NFL analyst John Costco gonna break down some of 885 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:25,840 Speaker 2: the PFF cornerback, tight end, and quarterback ratings upcoming for 886 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty five season. We'll also talk a little 887 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,359 Speaker 2: Max Hairston with him when we return. Here On One 888 00:50:30,360 --> 00:51:15,320 Speaker 2: Bill's Live presented by Colida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. 889 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 2: These One Bills Live presented by Calllida Health. All Right, 890 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 2: Hour number two on a Wednesday, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker 891 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,280 Speaker 2: with you and pleased to bring on board. Now NFL 892 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:30,319 Speaker 2: analysts for Pro Football Focus, John Costco joining us is 893 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,880 Speaker 2: we wanted to kind of have him help us break 894 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 2: down some of these rankings at the specific positions as 895 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 2: PFF is known to do. So John, first, thanks for 896 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 2: joining us. Second, I wanted to leap right into the 897 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:47,759 Speaker 2: cornerback rankings because the Bills, you know, had to make 898 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,920 Speaker 2: some additions there this offseason, and yet despite that, two 899 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 2: of their corners are in the top twenty here in 900 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:58,839 Speaker 2: Christian Benford and Tarren Johnson. So I don't know, I'm 901 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 2: kind of curious, being on the outside looking in, what 902 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 2: do you feel is like the general consensus on Buffalo's 903 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:10,919 Speaker 2: cornerback contingent now knowing they've added you know, Tredevious White 904 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 2: and Dane Jackson back to the fold to come back 905 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 2: for their second stints, and then Max Harrison Duran Strong 906 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,760 Speaker 2: in the draft to go in there with Taron Johnson 907 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 2: and Christian Benford. 908 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, thanks for having me on. I think Benford 909 00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 3: is really underrated, and I think as a whole, the 910 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 3: Bills have some work to do, especially you know, and 911 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 3: you know, outside of him, Karen Johnson was injured last year, 912 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 3: and he didn't. He didn't have a great year in 913 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. But Benford for me was one of 914 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 3: the better cornerbacks in the NFL last year and for 915 00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 3: a large stretch of the season was the best cornerback 916 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,279 Speaker 3: in the NFL. I think he faulted a little bit 917 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 3: toward at the end of the season, but he's been 918 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 3: excellent the last two years. His coverage grade of eighty 919 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 3: seven point one at PFF is the fourth best among 920 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:02,839 Speaker 3: cornerbacks in the NFL. He stays sticky in coverage and 921 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 3: I mean he's a really sure tackler, so you know, 922 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 3: and you know PFF grades across the board. He's just 923 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 3: been excellent. So I think Terren Johnson he's gonna have 924 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 3: a bounce back year. I think he's a really quality player. 925 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 3: And you know they're there. The Bills had some issues 926 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 3: last year in the secondary, but it wasn't It wasn't 927 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 3: Benford for sure. Uh and Taron Johnson I think was 928 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 3: as an injury thing. 929 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: How much of in your evaluation process to go because 930 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: you know, you get every cornerback end, every player gets 931 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 1: criticized and praised at the same time. Guys like Sauce 932 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 1: Gardner great coverage guy, but he shies away from contact. 933 00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: How much how much of the tackling and the physicality 934 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,240 Speaker 1: the sport play into the evaluations for these guys. 935 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,719 Speaker 3: Well, for quarterbacks, they're most you know, their priority is 936 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,920 Speaker 3: to stop the receiver from catching the football and then 937 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 3: if they do, to obviously stop them as quickly as possible, 938 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,720 Speaker 3: and and Sauce Gardner does that as better than anybody 939 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 3: in the NFL. But since he's entered the league, Uh, 940 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 3: does he shy away from tackles? Sometimes? Sure he does, 941 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,959 Speaker 3: But when backs throw his way, there's almost nobody better 942 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 3: than breaking up that pass and preventing a completion from happening. 943 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 3: He's the best in the NFL since entering the league 944 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:11,920 Speaker 3: and completion percentage allowed, and he's the best at forcing 945 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:15,800 Speaker 3: incompletions as well. So not just he is he breaking 946 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,520 Speaker 3: up the pass, but he's also like preventing the receiver 947 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 3: from getting to the ball even if he's not specifically 948 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 3: in his hands on the ball. So he's been phenomenal 949 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 3: sticking in coverage. Yeah, maybe when the ball is and 950 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 3: you know he's trying to make a tackle and stuff 951 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 3: like that. He's not the greatest, but I think that 952 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 3: the most important thing is for cornerbacks to prevent passes 953 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 3: being thrown their way, and when they do, to prevent 954 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 3: them from being complete. And he's the best in the 955 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:39,520 Speaker 3: NFL at that. 956 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you mentioned completion percentage against, and that was a 957 00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:44,319 Speaker 2: glaring number for the Bills last year. I think it 958 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: was fifth highest in the league. It was like sixty 959 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,680 Speaker 2: eight and a half percent, and a lot of that 960 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 2: had to do with the lack of duress on opposing quarterbacks. 961 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 2: The Bills try to address both the front of their 962 00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 2: defense in the back end of their defense. I don't 963 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 2: think it necessarily gets added into your PFF grades, but 964 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 2: it looks like what they've done up front should help 965 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,280 Speaker 2: the guys on the back end a little bit more, 966 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 2: at least from the standpoint of maybe not having a 967 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,600 Speaker 2: cover as long as they did you know on snaps 968 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:17,200 Speaker 2: last year. 969 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't. We don't specifically go all right, there 970 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 3: there are pass rush isn't as good, So then we 971 00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 3: adjust the grating for the for the player. If you know, 972 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,799 Speaker 3: if a quarterback has four seconds in the pocket and 973 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 3: finds this guy deep downfield, and say the cornerback is 974 00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 3: the one that busted that coverage or at least got 975 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,879 Speaker 3: beat out deep downfield. You know, we're still grading those 976 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 3: guys accordingly, but we can make adjustments based on like 977 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 3: how how long in terms of like, you know, after 978 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 3: the fact and saying, hey, this guy had had a 979 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 3: bad situation to deal with last year because of a 980 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 3: porous uh, you know, a really bad pass rush. You know, 981 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 3: we can make adjustments after the fact, but when we're 982 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:57,919 Speaker 3: in the moment you're looking at it's like a guy 983 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,439 Speaker 3: got beat. A guy got beat regardless of of a guy. 984 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 3: You know, the pass rushers getting there in two seconds 985 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,840 Speaker 3: or four seconds. If you get beat regardless, it doesn't matter. 986 00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 3: So does does a pass rush help a secondary? Absolutely 987 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 3: does it. Does a good secondary help a past rest? 988 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 3: Same thing, right, So you can look at those things 989 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 3: after the fact, and obviously coach coaches are going to 990 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 3: want to make adjustments for their guys if they can 991 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 3: hold up, you know, how long do they hold up 992 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 3: in coverage versus you know, hey, a guy's not going 993 00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:28,160 Speaker 3: to get to the quarterback and you know two seconds, 994 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,400 Speaker 3: maybe the pass rush is going to take two and 995 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 3: a half seconds or three seconds or whatever. If you 996 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:34,560 Speaker 3: if you have a cornerback that can hold up a 997 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 3: little bit longer, obviously that's better. But again, I think 998 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 3: like from a grading perspective, we're not really looking at 999 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 3: that of like, well this was this was four seconds 1000 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 3: down the field and now he got beat. You got beat, 1001 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 3: you got beat, right, So I think at the end 1002 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 3: of the day, you've got to get your job done, 1003 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:53,240 Speaker 3: and obviously a better pass rush will help help the secondary. 1004 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:56,880 Speaker 1: Who is the who's the best most underrated corner in 1005 00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 1: your opinion? I know, because you got the guys like 1006 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: the well, like, uh was the guy the kid from Chicago, 1007 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,480 Speaker 1: Jalen Johnson, great corner, but you know, he's on a 1008 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,359 Speaker 1: team that doesn't win many games. People don't see him 1009 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: on prime time. He's not a name at the top 1010 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 1: of everybody's list, But there are guys like him out 1011 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 1: there who are top notch players playing in a situation 1012 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 1: where nobody ever knows. 1013 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think DJ Reid is probably that guy that's 1014 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 3: probably the most underrated in the NFL. And he's a 1015 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 3: guy that has been consistent ever since he's entered the league. 1016 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:30,920 Speaker 3: He's great in you know, seventy two plus in coverage 1017 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 3: every single year of his career, and I think he's 1018 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 3: he's a guy and he was just signed by Detroit 1019 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 3: this offseason, so he's going over there to help them 1020 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 3: who had their injury issues this past year. But I 1021 00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:47,640 Speaker 3: think with Reid, he was probably overshadowed by the fact that, 1022 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 3: you know, Sauce Gardner was was also locking it down 1023 00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 3: on the other side of the field. And I think 1024 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 3: he does a really excellent job, and I think he's 1025 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 3: he's he's underrated in my opinion from a from a 1026 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 3: you know, our grading perspective. He's been a top you know, six' 1027 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 3: five guy in THE nfl the past couple of, seasons 1028 00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 3: AND i think he's gonna get his his, worth you, 1029 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 3: know In detroit and we'll, see we'll see if was 1030 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 3: he a product of maybe saucebying out there and that 1031 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 3: defense for a couple of years was really, good or 1032 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 3: is he a guy that you, know doesn't doesn't need 1033 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,520 Speaker 3: that help and he's been that, Good so there isn't 1034 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 3: there is a factor in that where like you, know 1035 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:24,560 Speaker 3: from a grading, perspective maybe you do grade a little 1036 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 3: bit better based on your. Situation BUT i Think reid 1037 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:29,560 Speaker 3: has been, phenomenal you, know the past couple of years. 1038 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 2: For, sure pivoting to the tight end. Position you, Know 1039 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 2: Dalton kincaid comes back down to earth after a record 1040 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 2: breaking at least in terms of team records tight end 1041 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 2: rookie season with seventy three receptions in twenty twenty. Three last, 1042 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,560 Speaker 2: year battles two knee injuries and a collarbone, injury and you, 1043 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 2: know doesn't match the, production doesn't even come. Close and 1044 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 2: yet still number ten on Your Guys rankings, list which 1045 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 2: might surprise Some bills fans quite, frankly how do you square? That? 1046 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 3: YEAH i MEAN i think so when we grade, him, 1047 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 3: right he actually created slightly better in his second season 1048 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 3: than he did in his rookie, year and you, know 1049 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 3: we take into, consideration you, know you, know the production 1050 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 3: is the. Production, Right he missed you, know four games 1051 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,920 Speaker 3: and parts of other games because of his. Injury but you, 1052 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 3: know on a he was targeted twenty fewer times last 1053 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 3: year than he was in as a. Rookie obviously caught 1054 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:30,680 Speaker 3: three fewer, passes but for, HIM i think he's still 1055 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 3: on a per target. Basis he was, doing he was playing, 1056 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,800 Speaker 3: well AND i think you, know he only dropped four 1057 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 3: passes last. Year, yeah the yardage wasn't, there and everything like. 1058 00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 3: That but you, know he forced more miss tackles per 1059 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,840 Speaker 3: catch this year than he did last, year had more explosive. 1060 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 3: Plays you, know he had ten in twenty twenty four 1061 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 3: versus twelve and twenty twenty. Three and you're talking about 1062 00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 3: missing all those. Games you, know on a per per catch, 1063 00:59:55,880 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 3: basis he's breaking you, know off bigger. Games so if 1064 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 3: he has a full season where he can be, HEALTHY 1065 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 3: i think you're going to see him to go back 1066 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 3: to those rookie numbers and maybe even surpass. Them you, 1067 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,439 Speaker 3: know yards per reception was highed in his second, year 1068 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:14,439 Speaker 3: SO i think the injuries kind of took its. Toll 1069 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 3: but when he was getting the, ball he was very 1070 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:17,320 Speaker 3: effective with the ball in his. 1071 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: Hands give us a little idea because The bills kind 1072 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,720 Speaker 1: of bang their heads against The Kansas City Chiefs wall 1073 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 1: every year at the end of the, season and, Notably 1074 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 1: Travis kelcey had a down. Year they were eleven and 1075 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,439 Speaker 1: oh coming Into. Buffalo buffalo gave him their first. Loss 1076 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:37,680 Speaker 1: they were had they had an incredibly good, season But 1077 01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,640 Speaker 1: Travis kelcey was notably absent from. That what did you 1078 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:43,680 Speaker 1: notice about his play and where it might be. Headed, Yeah. 1079 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 3: KELSEY i think is he slowed down AND i started 1080 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 3: to see that in twenty twenty, three but he just 1081 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 3: doesn't have the same juice and ability to just like 1082 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 3: there'd be a game changer like he was in the 1083 01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:58,400 Speaker 3: prime of his, career and you, know in the prime 1084 01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,160 Speaker 3: of his career is not even that far. Away BUT 1085 01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:02,880 Speaker 3: i think for, him it's the age is catching up to. 1086 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 3: Him he's not quite as explosive and quick out of 1087 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 3: his breaks as he once. Was he's still very. EFFECTIVE 1088 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:10,960 Speaker 3: i think he's still like a top tight ten tight, 1089 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 3: end BUT i think his reign at the, top you, 1090 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:15,680 Speaker 3: know you, know the past couple of years before this, 1091 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 3: year he's, been you, know a top two. GUY i 1092 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,000 Speaker 3: think that that that's coming to an end for. Him 1093 01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:23,040 Speaker 3: BUT i think he's he's still a good tight, end 1094 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 3: just not that elite level as he once. Was AND 1095 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 3: i think last year kind of showed that where, uh you, 1096 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:30,560 Speaker 3: know grading, wise it was the worst season of his, 1097 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:34,360 Speaker 3: career AND i, think you, know you, know there could 1098 01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:36,640 Speaker 3: be a bounce back year in play for. Him, obviously 1099 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,280 Speaker 3: the chief situation around him was not great in terms 1100 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:41,880 Speaker 3: of the receivers going. Down BUT i think what we 1101 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 3: saw from a from a film, perspective and what he's 1102 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 3: in an athletic, Ability he's just not what he once. 1103 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:49,000 Speaker 2: Was the last. One And i've got for, You, john 1104 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 2: and we'll give credit where it's. Due you actually Mocked 1105 01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 2: Max harriston to The bills in one of your mock, 1106 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:57,600 Speaker 2: drafts and you, know sure, enough there he goes thirtieth. 1107 01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 2: OVERALL i would argue that he probably would not have 1108 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 2: lasted that long had his coverage grades been, better you, 1109 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 2: know in twenty twenty, four or at least more in 1110 01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 2: line with what they were in twenty twenty three according 1111 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 2: to your guys. NUMBERS i, mean he went from an 1112 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 2: eighty one to eight overall in twenty twenty three down 1113 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 2: to a fifty five to one in his final year At. 1114 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 2: Kentucky were there any things that stuck out in, particular you, 1115 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,920 Speaker 2: know in terms of reaching that lower metric than the 1116 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,360 Speaker 2: one he had in twenty twenty three that compromised his. 1117 01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 3: Rating, Yeah andrey kind of took a play part for. Him. Right, 1118 01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:41,760 Speaker 3: so when you get, injured and especially for, like just 1119 01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:44,440 Speaker 3: if you're a physical cornerback like he, is and especially 1120 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 3: if it's in his upper, body that's gonna be a 1121 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 3: detriment to you and you're not going to be able 1122 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 3: to do the things that you need to be able to. 1123 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 3: Do you, Know so when one of the things that 1124 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 3: at the cornerback position to understand is it's really kind of. 1125 01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:00,920 Speaker 3: Volatile Right if if you can be in tight coverage 1126 01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:02,760 Speaker 3: and you make the play on the ball versus not 1127 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 3: making the play on the, ball there's you, know that's 1128 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 3: a difference of potentially a thirty yard game or something 1129 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 3: like that versus a past, breakup because you, know sometimes 1130 01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:12,800 Speaker 3: the ball was just a perfect ball and there's nothing 1131 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 3: you can do about, it and sometimes when you're you 1132 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 3: are in tight coverage that, ball you get your hand 1133 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 3: on that. Ball so there's there's a few things that 1134 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:24,200 Speaker 3: come into play for these, cornerbacks you, know for when 1135 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,120 Speaker 3: when they're able to make the. Plays you, know he 1136 01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:29,600 Speaker 3: had five interceptions in his in his twenty twenty three. 1137 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 3: Season he only had one last, year so get you, 1138 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 3: know some of that is a bit luck in terms 1139 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:38,200 Speaker 3: of maybe getting targeted when you are jumping the route 1140 01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:41,280 Speaker 3: and you read it out correctly and sometimes they, hey, 1141 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,360 Speaker 3: this we know this guy has stud let's avoid throwing his. 1142 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 3: Way he only had twenty two targets in twenty twenty, 1143 01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 3: four you, know versus sixty seven as a you, know 1144 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:51,840 Speaker 3: in his sophomore. Year so there's a lot that kind 1145 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:54,960 Speaker 3: of goes into that wasn't he wasn't challenged as much as, 1146 01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 3: often you, know as often he was as a as a, 1147 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,760 Speaker 3: sophomore and therefore his grade kind of suffers that. Way 1148 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 3: and of the public facing grade that we, have you, 1149 01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:04,040 Speaker 3: know one of the one of the grades THAT i 1150 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 3: talk about in the article THAT i you, know the 1151 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,280 Speaker 3: cornerback ranking ARTICLE i have is Our advanced coverage, grade 1152 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:13,080 Speaker 3: which isn't a published a publicly published grade that we have, 1153 01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 3: currently and that takes into consideration where where you're sticking 1154 01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:21,120 Speaker 3: it sticky and coverage on plays that weren't, targeted, Right 1155 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 3: so if you're if you're if you're preventing a past 1156 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:26,400 Speaker 3: from going your. Way our old coverage, grade the one 1157 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:28,480 Speaker 3: that's publicly, FACING i call it her old, one but 1158 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 3: it's the public and facing. One it doesn't actually kind 1159 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:33,200 Speaker 3: of take that into consideration of like you had a 1160 01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 3: positive play on this on this, play, Right so the 1161 01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 3: advanced one kind of, does and it's you, know we're 1162 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 3: WE'RE i think we're in the works of making that 1163 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 3: more publicly. Available but you know he. Did he still 1164 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 3: is was sticky in. Coverage it's just when you're not 1165 01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 3: targeted as, much you have fewer opportunities to gain those positive. 1166 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:53,560 Speaker 1: Plays, john good.

Yep and then he also had the force 1215 01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 1: fumble in the playoff game against The ravens when he 1216 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 1: punched it out Of Mark andrews and kind of turned everything. 1217 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:32,880 Speaker 1: Around plays like, That and of Course, MILANO i, mean 1218 01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:39,880 Speaker 1: His moniker is timely big, plays, right he Had he 1219 01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:42,040 Speaker 1: had a fumble recovery in a GAME i was watching 1220 01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,560 Speaker 1: the other. Day what was? It it? Was we talked 1221 01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:46,760 Speaker 1: about the game that was getting, replayed The detroit. Game 1222 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:51,040 Speaker 1: somebody Al Monross Saint brown came across the, middle caught 1223 01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:52,880 Speaker 1: it and held it away from his body for three, 1224 01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: steps gotten knocked. Out milana was on. It those two 1225 01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:02,280 Speaker 1: guys are the guys on this defense that are the 1226 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 1: always around, it making it happen kind of. Guys they are. 1227 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:12,880 Speaker 1: Playmakers they're not like they're not. Grinders they are flash, 1228 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:17,840 Speaker 1: players impact players who make the other team make mistakes 1229 01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 1: or take advantage of a mistake that the other team. 1230 01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: MAKES i think that is and that's one of the 1231 01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:28,760 Speaker 1: reasons as. Well this, defense for as unpredictable as it 1232 01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 1: is as a stat this defense is top three or, 1233 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:36,479 Speaker 1: four top five for sure every single year in. 1234 01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 2: Turnovers, yeah and they were second in the league last 1235 01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:42,799 Speaker 2: year in turnover, margin second in the league in total. 1236 01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:45,439 Speaker 1: Interceptions those two guys are a big part of, it 1237 01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:49,440 Speaker 1: a big part of, it AND i like their mentality. 1238 01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:53,720 Speaker 1: There they are mentally it seems you just get the 1239 01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:55,720 Speaker 1: idea that when things like that, happen those guys are 1240 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:59,080 Speaker 1: seeing it and they're way ahead of it. Mentally that's 1241 01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:02,880 Speaker 1: WHAT i get From lano And. Bernard maybe they'll have 1242 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:03,519 Speaker 1: another year like. 1243 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:07,519 Speaker 2: That maybe it's. Possible it'd be nice if they could 1244 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:10,519 Speaker 2: play a little bit more, together you. Know, Obviously milano's 1245 01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 2: injuries have kind of compromised them as a. TANDEM i, 1246 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:14,920 Speaker 2: MEAN i remember all the way back to twenty twenty 1247 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 2: three started the. Season it's their first year as a 1248 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 2: tandem as, starters and the team is leading the league 1249 01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:27,280 Speaker 2: in takeaways heading into The london game In week five 1250 01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:29,240 Speaker 2: and Then milano breaks his leg and that was the 1251 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:32,880 Speaker 2: end of. That and then unfortunately there was a similar 1252 01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 2: outcome last, year you, know in leading up to the regular. 1253 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 2: Season it's after training. Camp we're back here at One 1254 01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:46,599 Speaker 2: bill's drive and non contact ruptures a bicep. Tendon same, 1255 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 2: deal can't keep them together on the. Field so hopefully 1256 01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:52,800 Speaker 2: that changes this year and they can get back to 1257 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 2: those splash playmaking ways as a.

Now, well, 1328 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,160 Speaker 1: YEAH i think for, two obviously we put on the. 1329 01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:35,759 Speaker 1: SHOW i, mean we both, CAN'T. 1330 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 2: I, Think but it's mainly for two. Reasons one That 1331 01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:45,000 Speaker 2: alpha hasn't shown up yet and two, philosophically the group 1332 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:50,599 Speaker 2: rotates so much it's hard to pinpoint who that person could. 1333 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:53,880 Speaker 2: Be and that's why we pose the question today BECAUSE 1334 01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:57,599 Speaker 2: i think it is a little nebulous as to who 1335 01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:01,160 Speaker 2: that will. Be and you, know one person's guest might 1336 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,599 Speaker 2: be as good as anybody else's in determining who that, 1337 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 2: guy who it is that emerges and is the leader 1338 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:11,960 Speaker 2: in production and in leading that group come season's. End 1339 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:14,160 Speaker 2: we do have to take a break, here more thoughts 1340 01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 2: on the tweet, sheet and maybe a little time for 1341 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 2: SOME nfl true false when we return here On One 1342 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:21,800 Speaker 2: Bill's live presented By Colida, health it's S Buffalo Bills. 1343 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:38,240 Speaker 2: Radio all, right back here On One Bill's, Live Chris, 1344 01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:43,200 Speaker 2: Brown Steve tasker with you and discussing who you believe 1345 01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:46,400 Speaker 2: will be the defensive alignment to leave the charge for 1346 01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:51,920 Speaker 2: The bills this season in terms of individual.

Drills they look very. 1361 01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:43,040 Speaker 1: Capable they look athletic enough they bring something to the. 1362 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:44,280 Speaker 1: TABLE i want to see how they. 1363 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:48,559 Speaker 2: Do, yeah and no one's really Mentioned Landon, jackson who 1364 01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:53,639 Speaker 2: defensive Coordinator Bobby babbage said yesterday has three down player. 1365 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:56,880 Speaker 2: Potential probably not gonna play all three downs as a 1366 01:15:56,960 --> 01:16:00,240 Speaker 2: rookie because of the rotation and some of the other 1367 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:05,679 Speaker 2: veterans on the, roster but three down player potential for 1368 01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 2: one Land In, Jackson so don't think he should be 1369 01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:13,240 Speaker 2: dismissed out of hand either in this. Equation robbie on 1370 01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 2: the tweets sheet says Ed, oliver our new ends are 1371 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:20,320 Speaker 2: going to keep quarterbacks in the pocket more often for 1372 01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:25,439 Speaker 2: cowboy ed to rope and. Wrangle what do you think 1373 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:27,360 Speaker 2: about that, Thought. 1374 01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,280 Speaker 1: Well we thought it was going to happen with the 1375 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 1: addition Of vaughan and you, know the whole and it hasn't. 1376 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:39,880 Speaker 1: Yet and the defensive tackles Around, ed you, know his, 1377 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:45,599 Speaker 1: cohorts you, Know Daikwon jones is a good, Player Jordan 1378 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 1: phillips really good. Player but they were all you, know 1379 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:51,799 Speaker 1: they all, had you, know ten years in the, league. 1380 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:54,120 Speaker 1: RIGHT i, mean this. 1381 01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:56,759 Speaker 2: Guy thinks the ends are going to keep the quarterbacks hemmed. 1382 01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:56,840 Speaker 5: In. 1383 01:16:56,920 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 1: Yeah my point by saying that about the other defensive tackles, 1384 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:04,240 Speaker 1: is you Know ed's never really had, that, right they're 1385 01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:05,720 Speaker 1: trying to give it to. Him they're trying to give 1386 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:07,679 Speaker 1: him some help out there and all, that Because ed's 1387 01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:11,439 Speaker 1: the kind of guy that you wish the offensive team 1388 01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:16,559 Speaker 1: would single. Right AND i think one of the things, 1389 01:17:16,600 --> 01:17:19,080 Speaker 1: too is some of the quarterbacks The bills, play particularly 1390 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:21,720 Speaker 1: division winners in the playoff, teams you get quarterbacks who 1391 01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 1: don't just stand in the. Bar they can move, around 1392 01:17:24,160 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 1: and that precludes The bill's ability to run stunts up 1393 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,599 Speaker 1: front because when you start crossing your defensive, line when 1394 01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,599 Speaker 1: we do the the acts where the outside guy comes 1395 01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:37,280 Speaker 1: in or the ox the, inside the outside guy comes 1396 01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:39,639 Speaker 1: in and there the, acts the inside guy goes. Out 1397 01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:41,960 Speaker 1: all you, know they cross and they, act and that 1398 01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:45,439 Speaker 1: leaves open running lanes and mobile quarterbacks take advantage of. 1399 01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 1: That so The bills are a little bit reticent to do, 1400 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,880 Speaker 1: that and it makes it tougher on your defensive line 1401 01:17:49,880 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 1: to get, home particularly from the. Interior opening it up 1402 01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 1: with some guys who can other guys who can command double. 1403 01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 1: Teams it's got to pay. Dividends it's got to pay, 1404 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,280 Speaker 1: dividends you would. 1405 01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:09,640 Speaker 2: Think And i'm curious too if that can work the 1406 01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 2: other way as, well because we were talking about it. 1407 01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 2: Earlier you have penetrating up the, field defensive TACKLES. Tj, 1408 01:18:18,080 --> 01:18:21,160 Speaker 2: sanders Ed oliver maybe to a lesser, Extent Eon, walker 1409 01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:24,080 Speaker 2: and What Larry Ogan joby brings you when he gets. 1410 01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:27,560 Speaker 2: Back we'll have to. See do they create more opportunities 1411 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 2: for the guys on the edges by flushing the quarterback 1412 01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:32,200 Speaker 2: from the pocket out to the. 1413 01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:35,800 Speaker 1: Edges, yeah it's pretty. Simple better players make you, better 1414 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 1: and you've got to feel that there's more potential in 1415 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:41,600 Speaker 1: the room now than there has been in quite some 1416 01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:44,880 Speaker 1: time because of the guys they brought in that are 1417 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:49,000 Speaker 1: brand new and the high. End If Joey bosa comes 1418 01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:51,760 Speaker 1: in and stays, healthy forget, it, Man it's gonna be. 1419 01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 1: Awesome BUT i don't know that you'd be hard pressed 1420 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:55,920 Speaker 1: to find somebody who has total faith in THAT. 1421 01:18:57,560 --> 01:19:00,680 Speaker 2: Jt on the, tweet she, SAYS i think everybody on 1422 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 2: THIS d line is going to eat McDermott has shown 1423 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 2: he likes to rotate the. LINE i Think oliver is 1424 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:08,439 Speaker 2: going to explode this. Year with all the help we 1425 01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 2: have around, him it's going to unleash a different beast in.

Bills Love This. 1465 01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:20,960 Speaker 1: Party true. 1466 01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:26,080 Speaker 2: False number, One Steve Daniel jones will beat Out Anthony 1467 01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:31,760 Speaker 2: richardson for The colts starting quarterback. Job true or. 1468 01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 1: FALSE i would say. True there's a couple of factors 1469 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:42,040 Speaker 1: in this. One Daniel jones runs AN nfl. Offense he's 1470 01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:45,000 Speaker 1: a mediocre, quarterback but he does think through, it and 1471 01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:48,840 Speaker 1: he's got, experience and he has done it at a 1472 01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:54,720 Speaker 1: playoff level with a lesser roster like all of The 1473 01:21:54,720 --> 01:22:00,559 Speaker 1: New York giants in two thousand whatever it was Three and, 1474 01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:05,719 Speaker 1: also on a more somber, note the owner just passed. 1475 01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:08,640 Speaker 1: Away Jim ersey just passed. Away there will, be in my, 1476 01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:11,840 Speaker 1: opinion probably less interference from the higher ups in that 1477 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 1: organization is to make the call as to who's going 1478 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 1: to start because of money or whatever. Else because of 1479 01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:21,080 Speaker 1: the investment of a first round draft Picking Anthony, richardson 1480 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:27,760 Speaker 1: there's going to be less pressure from outside other than football. Considerations, 1481 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,799 Speaker 1: yeah to make that, call AND i Think Daniel jones 1482 01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 1: is just going to be too steady and too consistent 1483 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,320 Speaker 1: for the occasional flashes That Anthony richardson gives. 1484 01:22:37,320 --> 01:22:40,080 Speaker 2: You AND i think that is why we are right 1485 01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:44,160 Speaker 2: back where we were When Joe flacco was there as 1486 01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:50,240 Speaker 2: the veteran. Backup With, richardson it becomes a question of 1487 01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:55,360 Speaker 2: is the offense better off with a veteran who can 1488 01:22:55,400 --> 01:23:00,160 Speaker 2: make the offense, functional or are they better off With 1489 01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 2: richardson who can make the offense special because of his 1490 01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:11,600 Speaker 2: unique physical. Gifts the challenge For richardson is being functional 1491 01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:17,680 Speaker 2: while also possessing the elite physical. Wowplays we know the 1492 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:21,120 Speaker 2: wow plays are in. There the problem is can he 1493 01:23:21,240 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 2: do the other simple plays to stay on the, field 1494 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,640 Speaker 2: move the, sticks and sustain. Drives to this, point he 1495 01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:29,800 Speaker 2: has not been able to do. That if he comes 1496 01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:33,240 Speaker 2: in and training camp in the preseason and he's matriculating 1497 01:23:33,280 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 2: the ball down the field and then there's two or 1498 01:23:35,479 --> 01:23:39,160 Speaker 2: three special plays then nobody else on the roster can, make, 1499 01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 2: well then, yeah he's gonna be the. Starter short of, 1500 01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:45,040 Speaker 2: that he probably won't. BE i, mean let's not forget 1501 01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:48,040 Speaker 2: this is year three For Shane steichen the head, coach 1502 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 2: like it's gotta. Happen, yeah he's gonna go with what 1503 01:23:52,240 --> 01:23:56,519 Speaker 2: keeps the offense, FUNCTIONAL i, Think and If richardson can't do, that, 1504 01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:59,599 Speaker 2: yeah it will Be Daniel. Jones so for, Now i'll, 1505 01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:01,720 Speaker 2: say even THOUGH i have about as much faith In 1506 01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:03,880 Speaker 2: Daniel jones as you. 1507 01:24:03,760 --> 01:24:07,160 Speaker 1: Know, Well Daniel jones may make him functional in, smooth 1508 01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:09,600 Speaker 1: that's that doesn't mean they're gonna win. Games AND i 1509 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:13,360 Speaker 1: get the allure making a change just for change his 1510 01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:15,840 Speaker 1: sake when you're not. Winning they may end up doing, 1511 01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:19,840 Speaker 1: That But Daniel jones is either going to be the 1512 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:21,760 Speaker 1: last guy standing or the first guy out of the. 1513 01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:24,320 Speaker 1: Gate Could they're not going to be satisfied with the. 1514 01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:28,679 Speaker 1: PRODUCT i don't think in either. Case so whoever wins 1515 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:32,920 Speaker 1: the job out of training, camp the hook is already 1516 01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 1: in the. Hand so, yeah you know WHAT i. 1517 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:38,200 Speaker 2: Mean SO i mean in ALL i, mean as you, 1518 01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:39,960 Speaker 2: Know i'm not a Huge Daniel jones. FAN i, MEAN 1519 01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:41,800 Speaker 2: i have about as much faith In Daniel jones AS 1520 01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 2: i do and had two Tall jones playing. Quarterback But 1521 01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:48,599 Speaker 2: Anthony richardson hasn't given me any faith to believe in him. 1522 01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:50,559 Speaker 2: EITHER i mean the guy lost out to a thirty 1523 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:51,280 Speaker 2: eight year Old Joe. 1524 01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:55,439 Speaker 1: Flacco, right so and When Anthony, yeah And Anthony. RICHARDS 1525 01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:57,759 Speaker 1: i think he's gonna be a while before he climbs 1526 01:24:57,800 --> 01:24:59,560 Speaker 1: out of The Holy dug himself when he needed a. 1527 01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 1: Break and that's you, know that's a hard thing to 1528 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 1: climb back, for particularly in the locker room full of 1529 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:09,479 Speaker 1: guys who, were you, know. Hurting so we'll see how that. 1530 01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:11,760 Speaker 1: Goes but that's my CAL nfl true. 1531 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:16,360 Speaker 2: False number, Two Justin fields will have a career year 1532 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 2: with The jets in twenty twenty. 1533 01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:22,519 Speaker 1: FIVE i will say true to that as, well really 1534 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,679 Speaker 1: because it's pretty low bars to him having a career. 1535 01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:29,080 Speaker 2: Year, well don't forget he did have a one thousand 1536 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 2: yard rushing season with The, Bears so there is. That 1537 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:33,799 Speaker 2: you're clearly. 1538 01:25:33,840 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 1: Unimpressed, yeah if he, throws he'll throw For if he 1539 01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:45,400 Speaker 1: plays seventeen, weeks seventeen, games he'll throw for between three 1540 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:46,639 Speaker 1: and four thousand. Yards. 1541 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah his highest passing yardage total was his last year In. 1542 01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 2: Chicago started thirteen games and had just over twenty five 1543 01:25:57,280 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 2: hundred yards. Passing, yeah sixteen, touchdowns. 1544 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:06,120 Speaker 1: Picks he'll, yes he'll surpass. That if he plays that 1545 01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:07,480 Speaker 1: much with The jets. 1546 01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 2: New offensive, system first time offensive coordinator in THE, nfl 1547 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:17,920 Speaker 2: And Tanner, heergstrand who was an assistant Under Ben johnson In. 1548 01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:25,160 Speaker 2: DETROIT i am inclined to go false. Here why you might, ASK. 1549 01:26:25,720 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 1: I know exactly what you're gonna, say But i'll let 1550 01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:28,880 Speaker 1: you say. IT i don't want to put words in 1551 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 1: your mouth because it's The, jets. 1552 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:36,960 Speaker 2: And i'd understand That Aaron glenn is really trying to 1553 01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:40,280 Speaker 2: change the culture, there BUT i think he's pushing a 1554 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:43,479 Speaker 2: boulder up a hill with the ownership that is still 1555 01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:47,519 Speaker 2: in place there and player development has been sorely. ABSENT 1556 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,800 Speaker 2: i JUST i can't see. HIM i, mean his best 1557 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:54,920 Speaker 2: year in passing yards is twenty five. Hundred he might 1558 01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:57,559 Speaker 2: do better than, that but is he topping seventeen touchdown? 1559 01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:01,200 Speaker 2: PASSES i don't think he is run five in BUT 1560 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:03,840 Speaker 2: i don't think he's topping seventeen touchdown. Passes and his 1561 01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:07,800 Speaker 2: best passer rating in his career was last year in 1562 01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 2: a part time role with The steelers at ninety three. 1563 01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:12,639 Speaker 2: THREE i don't think he's stopping. 1564 01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 1: That for my own, Reason i've got a lot of 1565 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:21,840 Speaker 1: respect For Aaron glenn a lot of. RESPECT i played 1566 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:25,120 Speaker 1: against him as a. Player he was a, CORNER i 1567 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:30,559 Speaker 1: was a, receiver and you just felt any success you 1568 01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:34,160 Speaker 1: had against him was short. LIVED i, mean the, guy he's, 1569 01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:39,439 Speaker 1: relentless he's a smart, guy and he was making chicken 1570 01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:41,840 Speaker 1: salad last year In detroit with the injuries that he 1571 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,680 Speaker 1: had to face as a defensive. COORDINATOR i mean it Was, 1572 01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:48,679 Speaker 1: staples duct tape and spit holding them together In, detroit 1573 01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:55,120 Speaker 1: and you, know ultimately it got. Him he has made 1574 01:27:55,640 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 1: enormous leaps into WHAT i think was important from a, 1575 01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:04,760 Speaker 1: Distance i'm you, know we're a thousand miles.
