1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,519 Speaker 1: What did uh you think of drafting a first round 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: corner who obviously, uh, you're gonna have to mentor here 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:08,480 Speaker 1: a little bit could be playing opposite. 4 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm excited, you know. I think about when uh, 5 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 2: I was in Tennessee and I had Logan Ryan being 6 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 2: able to help me and mentor me, and then the 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 2: following year I had Malcolm Butler. So I always think 8 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 2: of it as a I added benefit, you know, to 9 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 2: us as a whole, not just the defense, but the 10 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: team as a whole. So I'm excited watch his tape 11 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 2: like him, I watch him doing the walk throughs and 12 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 2: different things, you know, and talk to him. Got a 13 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 2: good head on his shoulder. Seemed like a a great guy, 14 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: So I was I was excited, you know, to get dbanks. 15 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 2: Do you see. 16 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 3: Any similarities in terms I mean, I would imagine you're 17 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 3: looking on film where you see tange than rackets, but 18 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 3: in terms of his personality and how I would imagine 19 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 3: as a veteran, you know how personality is meationalists. What 20 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 3: do you think it tastes personality? Was are you getting 21 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 3: the open up? 22 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: Is that kind of a uh? No, I hasn't been 23 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 2: a challenge. I think He's a great guy and he's 24 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 2: been acceptable to the culture, you know that what we're 25 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 2: trying to build here, and I can just do anything 26 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 2: but appreciate you know, him and welcoming him in the 27 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 2: same as us. You know, it takes a lot to 28 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 2: gain so much trust and vice vership that he came 29 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: in with open arms as we did. So he he's 30 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: been a good guy, giving us laugh, you know, singing 31 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 2: and stuff, which was just pretty cool to see him 32 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 2: not shy away or be shy at all and trying 33 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: to be one of us. Is dope to see what 34 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: do you think the best thing in the veteran quarterback 35 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: and teaching you on cornerback is kind of what Dick 36 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: Lebow used to teach me when I was in Tennessee. 37 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: You know, if something doesn't go my way or play 38 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: doesn't go you know this, that or third, he always 39 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: was to be able to tell me his experiences and 40 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: what goes on and just give him tools that to 41 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 2: make him better. I think that's the the best thing 42 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: that a better cornerback can do. Just let somebody learn 43 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 2: from their mistakes and just trying to help them and 44 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: be that voice or reason or ear how I think 45 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 2: I would have wanted it, you know, coming in or 46 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: a vice versa. So just trying to be there as 47 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: much as possible for him. 48 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: I most metrics think people say, you had a really 49 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: good season last year. Here's how do you look at 50 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: your season? And then the one knock people have on 51 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: you is not a lot of game turnover sports? Or 52 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: why do you think that is for a guy who's 53 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: around the ball as much as you. 54 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: I don't know, that's a that's a good question, you know. 55 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 2: I feel a lot of season was all right. I 56 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: feel like a good season, you know that been going 57 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: all the way and winning the whole thing. But yeah, 58 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: I can't explain, you know, being around the ball a lot, 59 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: but not getting any players. You know, hopefully the Lord, 60 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: you know, here's me put it up in the existence 61 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: and give me a lot more this year. 62 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: Is that something? I mean, I've just brought it up. 63 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: So is that something that you think about? Is that 64 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: something you work on trying to get. 65 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 4: Try to get the ball. 66 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 2: If it don't happen that way, I'm not gonna beat 67 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: myself up over it and then just think about, oh 68 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: I need to do this, do this, do this, And 69 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about the wrong thing and then something else happens. 70 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 2: I give up or I mess up and play somewhere else. 71 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: So for me, it's just to be in the moment 72 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: on being that player and then clear you know, next 73 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: play mentality. Because let's say I do get pick alright, 74 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 2: I was saying in the first quarter, I got three 75 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: more quarters of the play, or I do get a PB, 76 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 2: or I do something happened, you know, Wink alway says, 77 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: give us two. So for me to try to play 78 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: my game and you know, when opportunity to come to 79 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 2: make make the place. 80 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: Doorg you notice seemed like that, but it was a 81 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 4: point emphasis during the off season. Do you notice of 82 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 4: the offenses market be faster receivers faster than maybe. 83 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 2: I would say, with being able to be familiar with 84 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: the offense and you know, having another year in it, 85 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: you know, playing with Wink last year and learned and 86 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 2: come in able fourth. You know, I always tell Dames 87 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: that was way too early to come in, you know, 88 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: but we benefit from it. But having you know, Wink 89 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: still here and Dave's cathel and having that still offense, 90 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 2: you know, DJ being under that system and being able 91 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 2: to teach the guys like they went out to Arizona 92 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 2: and was able to, you know, work together and get 93 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: familiar with everything. So I think that makes everything faster. 94 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: And you know, like you said, speed wise, those guys 95 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 2: that move you know out there, and like you know 96 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: this this league now is you know, offense dominated and 97 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: pass the league really, so to be able to, you know, 98 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: see that speed, it's great for us because we're gonna 99 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: face a lot of guys that that do similar things 100 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 2: on offense. So that really late practice where you're mash 101 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: up with Waller down here. What's it like as a 102 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: corner to see a guy like that come up and Nah, 103 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 2: it's crazy. You know his catch rader is, you know, 104 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 2: being able to you know, you can jump one route, 105 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: but DJ can throw it somewhere else and he can 106 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 2: still be able to get to it the speed that 107 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 2: he has. And it's not like it's a different type 108 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: of speed in the sense where he builds up his 109 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: speed and you can like, look like the hell he 110 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: just runs strong, Hell like he trying to run through you, 111 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: run around you, whatever may be. But I love it 112 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: because you never know what you're gonna match up with. 113 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 2: You know, you can go against a six to five 114 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 2: receiver or smaller guy. You just get different looks. And 115 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 2: I think that's what I appreciate most about this offense. 116 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: You know, you got a lot of different type of 117 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: body stricture, a lot of different type of attributes from 118 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: these guys and having you know, everybody to help us 119 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 2: be better as a defense. 120 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: I just make the move from corner of the safety logan. 121 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: Obviously it comes to mind we saw Nick McCleod playing 122 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: some safety today. How does he look there and that 123 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: group as a whole trying to replace Julian I. 124 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 2: I think you know, Nick is a man, Swiss Army Knights, 125 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 2: a god that's gonna do whatever you ask him to do, 126 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: and he's gonna do it at a high level. And 127 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 2: I one thing I can say is I appreciate Nick, 128 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 2: you know, never putting his hand down, never wavering, never 129 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: being what was me just like all right, coach, what 130 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 2: should need me to do? And him being there to 131 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: switch around mm. I think it's great because we can 132 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: utilize him in. 133 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 4: So many different ways. 134 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 2: Uh. I just I can say I can just appreciate Nick, 135 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 2: you know, for for him being unselfish. You know a 136 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 2: lot of gosh probably would be mad or whatever may 137 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 2: be with him going out there just loving the game. 138 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 2: You love the game and having fun with it. Good 139 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 2: things happen and get someone to feel as well.
