Speaker 1: It's been an off season of changes for the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers, but some things stay the same. George Kittle
Speaker 1: is sticking around on a new contract. We will tell
Speaker 1: you what it means and when Brock Purdy could get
Speaker 1: his JJ. McCarthy says he's ready to get his first
Speaker 1: regular season start and he sure looks like he's back
Speaker 1: to his old self. Here from the Vikings quarterback on
Speaker 1: his recovery from knee surgery, Aaron Rodgers and what lies
Speaker 1: ahead in twenty twenty five. Getafel Draft is now in
Speaker 1: the rearview mirror, but now comes the fun part. Which
Speaker 1: rookies will make the biggest impact well for your team
Speaker 1: and your fantasy team. Brian Baldinger and Michae left Florio
Speaker 1: have their predictions. Did somebody says Scataboo. Welcome inside with
Speaker 1: the insiders alongside Judy Batista and Mike Garrifolo. I am
Speaker 1: Tom Peliicero. We are fifteen days away now from the
Speaker 1: NFL schedule release. We are one hundred and twenty eight
Speaker 1: short days away from the twenty twenty five NFL kickoff game.
Speaker 2: That's all.
Speaker 1: It is a little over four months away from seeing
Speaker 1: all these rookies make their regular season debuts as well
Speaker 1: as the regular season debut. One guy whose rookie season
Speaker 1: got wiped out, that, of course, is JJ McCarthy, the
Speaker 1: number ten overall pick in last year's NFL draft, wowed
Speaker 1: in his pre season debut before suffering a meniscus injury
Speaker 1: the required season ending surgery last August. JJ McCarthy, as
Speaker 1: you can see here, is back to throwing.
Speaker 2: He's moving. He has certainly put the weight on. So
Speaker 2: how are you feeling, Jj?
Speaker 3: Overall?
Speaker 4: I feel one hundred and ten percent, because I feel
Speaker 4: like better than you know when I got hurt eight
Speaker 4: months ago, and yeah, just really excited to be out
Speaker 4: here with the guys again and be in the building.
Speaker 4: I know I'm ready to start because all the work
Speaker 4: I put in and just the confidence in my skills
Speaker 4: and abilities and just being able to do my job
Speaker 4: and simplify simplified things to you know, the best of
Speaker 4: my ability every single day and you know, just taking
Speaker 4: one day at a time, one play at a time.
Speaker 4: And you know, I have a tremendous coaching staff, a
Speaker 4: tremendous group of guys around me that I can lean
Speaker 4: on and they can lean on me.
Speaker 2: Judy. I watched that press conference today.
Speaker 3: J J.
Speaker 1: McCarthy is a very impressive young guy. It's easy to
Speaker 1: forget last year. For all the talk we've had about
Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels. What a first season. Drake May, Caleb Williams,
Speaker 1: Michael Pennis, bow Nicks. This was the other guy that
Speaker 1: was in the mix. He's obviously put a lot of
Speaker 1: that weight back on that he lost post surgery. Here
Speaker 1: now it's time to find out exactly what he's all about.
Speaker 5: Well, we'll get to all the stuff that he said,
Speaker 5: which was impressive, but just looking at him makes you
Speaker 5: feel better about him because you remember those scenes from
Speaker 5: when he was on the sideline after he got hurt,
Speaker 5: when he was drawn, he had lost so much weight.
Speaker 5: He's obviously put the weight back on. He looks healthy,
Speaker 5: he's moving well, he's throwing the ball well. And he
Speaker 5: did say all the right things right that he was
Speaker 5: asked about the sort of flirtation or at least conversations
Speaker 5: with Aaron Rodgers, and he basically said, like he put
Speaker 5: blinders on, he wasn't paying attention to that. He welcomes
Speaker 5: the pressure. I mean, he is clearly the number one guy.
Speaker 5: It is all in with JJ McCarthy. There's that old
Speaker 5: video where he just did not look very healthy frankly
Speaker 5: at all. But it does all systems go with him.
Speaker 5: I mean, he is the starting quarterback. They basically told
Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers like, thanks for your interest, but no thanks,
Speaker 5: We're going with this guy.
Speaker 6: So all systems are go for him.
Speaker 5: Really excited to actually see him on the fields when
Speaker 5: he's got his teammates out there and really practicing football again.
Speaker 7: He gets the full gamut of reps too this time, Judy.
Speaker 7: I mean, think about the reps he lost when he
Speaker 7: got hurt. Now he gets the starter reps because he
Speaker 7: doesn't have anybody to compete with. If you brought Aaron
Speaker 7: Rodgers in, it was going to cut significantly into his reps,
Speaker 7: even if it was an open competition.
Speaker 8: He needs those now he needs to make up for them.
Speaker 7: He did a good job by all accounts of during
Speaker 7: the last year taking the mental reps and seeing how
Speaker 7: Sam Darnold ran things for the Minuta Vikings as the quarterback.
Speaker 8: But now it's about actually getting in there and doing it.
Speaker 7: It starts in the spring, it continues into training camp
Speaker 7: and then in the preseason and the Vikings are hopeful
Speaker 7: he can be even more impressive than he was last
Speaker 7: year in those preseason games. Carry all that momentum into
Speaker 7: the preseason and never have to look back and sign
Speaker 7: a veteran that would be your starter heading into week one.
Speaker 1: Time and Mike he was asked about how he handled
Speaker 1: everything with Aaron Rodgers and all the speculation. He said,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
Speaker 1: Toy to respect for him, but I'm focused on what
Speaker 1: I have to do, which right now is continuing to
Speaker 1: prove through this offseason that he can be QB one
Speaker 1: Fightings also locked up one of his teammates for another
Speaker 1: year earlier today.
Speaker 2: Andrew Van Ginkel agreed to terms.
Speaker 1: On a one year, twenty three million dollar extension that
Speaker 1: puts him under contract with Minnesota through twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1: Van Ginkle last year one of the best bargains in
Speaker 1: the NFL. Maybe this time around teams will realize stop
Speaker 1: throwing bubbles to his side and handing them free piece
Speaker 1: pick sixes.
Speaker 2: That certainly would be a sound strategy.
Speaker 1: Another guy who got paid earlier today, George Kittle, the
Speaker 1: forty nine ers star tight end, agreed terms on a
Speaker 1: four years seventy six point four million dollar contract extension
Speaker 1: that includes forty million dollars guaranteed. Kittle had been due
Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars this season. He was not present at
Speaker 1: the start of offseason workouts. Judy Kittle said it was
Speaker 1: not contract related, but it was pretty obvious that he
Speaker 1: was due for an adjustment. What do you make of
Speaker 1: this deal right now for a San Francisco team that's
Speaker 1: made a lot of decisions through the course of this offseason.
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, it probably got lost in the
Speaker 5: draft shuffle, but when he showed up to the offseason
Speaker 5: workouts on Friday, that was an indication that things were
Speaker 5: probably moving in a positive direction.
Speaker 6: And here we are. You're right.
Speaker 5: In the past we have seen in the past few months,
Speaker 5: we've seen, I mean, San Francisco has shed a.
Speaker 6: Lot of big name players.
Speaker 5: This is one they wanted to bring back, and incredibly,
Speaker 5: they did it early in the off season relative to
Speaker 5: when they usually get these contracts done. The last few years,
Speaker 5: we've seen them go all the way into July, even
Speaker 5: August getting these contracts done. The last time George Kittle
Speaker 5: signed an extension, it didn't get done until August it's
Speaker 5: still April. This is a four year extension. He's going
Speaker 5: to be thirty two in the middle of this season.
Speaker 5: Is he going to play out the four years? I mean,
Speaker 5: maybe not, but he's going to play at least two years,
Speaker 5: maybe three. He's still super, super productive eleven hundred yards
Speaker 5: last season, I believe, eight receiving touchdowns, and he's super durable.
Speaker 5: The only season in which George Kittle lost significant time
Speaker 5: was twenty twenty, so he is available in addition to
Speaker 5: being a huge piece of that offense.
Speaker 6: Good for him.
Speaker 5: He is now the highest paid tight end by just
Speaker 5: a little bit over Trey McBride, but he's still got
Speaker 5: the title.
Speaker 8: With a little help from some back end money there
Speaker 8: to inflate the deal. That's why. That's the reason for
Speaker 8: the point four. He got point one over Trey McBride.
Speaker 7: Is he technically the new highest paid tight end, but
Speaker 7: it's Apple's and Orange is tough to compare the two deals.
Speaker 8: It's a good deal. George Kittle's back. He's in the fold.
Speaker 8: That's good.
Speaker 7: Check one item off of the forty nine ers offseason list.
Speaker 7: Brock parties another. We're going to get to him in
Speaker 7: a second. How about Fred Warner, the linebacker who is
Speaker 7: just so pivotal, so vital, excuse me, to what the
Speaker 7: forty nine ers do defensively.
Speaker 8: He's got two years left on his deal.
Speaker 7: Now, the market at his position really hasn't run away,
Speaker 7: But at some point both sides might want to get
Speaker 7: this thing done. They're going to talk and see if
Speaker 7: they can get something done moving forward. So the fact
Speaker 7: that Kittle got done, I'm sure that is a good
Speaker 7: sign for Fred Warner that he could potentially get his
Speaker 7: sounded like the Niners wanted to get Kittle done first
Speaker 7: and then move on to see if they can get
Speaker 7: something done for Warner. We'll keep an eye on that,
Speaker 7: see if the sides can reach an agreement at some
Speaker 7: point this offseason. And then there's the trickle down effect
Speaker 7: for the other tight ends on other teams. Guys we
Speaker 7: were talking about during the draft is potentially being traded.
Speaker 7: They were not, and nothing is imminent now for both
Speaker 7: Mark Andrews and the Ravens and Dallas Goddard of the Eagles.
Speaker 7: Now we can argue when it comes to Andrews and
Speaker 7: Goddard whether they should have money that what Kittle got
Speaker 7: is over it, under it, whatever, But the point is
Speaker 7: both guys are going to get deals at some point,
Speaker 7: whether it's from their existing teams or their next teams
Speaker 7: that should be in that neighborhood. So yeah, this certainly
Speaker 7: helps these guys who are on their third contract say hey,
Speaker 7: there's where I should be, and their current teams have to.
Speaker 8: Decide can we budget that? If not, then we got
Speaker 8: to potentially move on from these guys.
Speaker 7: The Ravens also have to decide is it Andrews or
Speaker 7: is it Isaiah likely that they wind up giving their
Speaker 7: next big deal at the tight end position too, So
Speaker 7: these are still two situations we are monitoring. I know
Speaker 7: Eric Tacosta said he expects Mark Andrews on the team
Speaker 7: this upcoming season, but that doesn't put this one to
Speaker 7: bed completely.
Speaker 8: Got to keep an eye see what happens with both
Speaker 8: of those guys.
Speaker 1: Well, if you're Mark Andrews or Dallas Goddard and you
Speaker 1: just saw George Kittle, another tight end over age thirty,
Speaker 1: get a raise after he was doing fifteen million this year,
Speaker 1: you're going, in Andrew's case, I'm making eleven million this year.
Speaker 1: What are we even talking about at this point here?
Speaker 1: Certainly situations to monitor moving forward, same thing you mentioned
Speaker 1: brock par there, Mike. We know the forty nine Ers
Speaker 1: and Perty's agent have been in negotiations for quite a
Speaker 1: while now on a contract extension Party going into the
Speaker 1: fourth year of his original rookie deal, which as we know,
Speaker 1: is at a pretty low number around five million dollars
Speaker 1: thanks to hit him hitting some escalators on what was
Speaker 1: a seventh round draft pick contract, Judy, we know from
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers own words, they have been budgeting
Speaker 1: for this. They have been preparing to pay Rock Party.
Speaker 1: They have every intention for Rock Party to be their
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback. It's always tough, though, when you've got that
Speaker 1: much smaller number in the last year of a deal,
Speaker 1: to figure out how the cash flow works, how the
Speaker 1: numbers work, to look the right way it's going to
Speaker 1: be franchise quarterback money. They're just not yet at a
Speaker 1: point of agreeing on exactly what those numbers should be.
Speaker 6: They're not.
Speaker 5: But as we were just talking about before, like this
Speaker 5: is a franchise that has been very comfortable with letting
Speaker 5: big contracts get done deep into the summer after training
Speaker 5: camp opens, you know, after a preseason games start July August,
Speaker 5: you do wonder though, after last year when the Ayuk
Speaker 5: situation sort of hung over them, they were flat, They
Speaker 5: did not get off to a very good start. The
Speaker 5: whole season sort of caved in. You do wonder if
Speaker 5: maybe they are going to change their approach. They got
Speaker 5: the Kittle deal done and that sort of felt like
Speaker 5: they were clearing the decks to try to concentrate now
Speaker 5: on getting party and we did here again when so
Speaker 5: many veterans left during free agency, we did hear that
Speaker 5: part of this was because they were getting prepared to
Speaker 5: pay Brock Purdy. You do wonder if maybe they're going
Speaker 5: to change their approach and try to get this done
Speaker 5: so that everything is clear.
Speaker 6: Nothing is hanging over the team.
Speaker 5: Certainly nothing is hanging over your franchise quarterback as you
Speaker 5: go into what's going to be a really important season
Speaker 5: for this team.
Speaker 7: Yes, it's one thing to do that with Deebo Samuel
Speaker 7: or Brandon Ayuk. It's another thing to do with your
Speaker 7: starting quarterback. And he was there for the start of
Speaker 7: off season workouts. The next step is OTA's is he
Speaker 7: going to wind up being there for those You certainly
Speaker 7: want your quarterback to be part of them, even if
Speaker 7: they are voluntary. We have seen guys miss him at
Speaker 7: the quarterback position before. I just every time I've seen
Speaker 7: something in the last couple of days about brock Purty
Speaker 7: and the monetary value, it seems like it's now accepted
Speaker 7: that this is going to be in the fifties. With
Speaker 7: regard to million dollars per year. It's like when we
Speaker 7: talked about this a couple of weeks ago, or everybody.
Speaker 9: What he's going to make fifty something, Yeah, fifty something million,
Speaker 9: depending on where it is. In the fifties is low
Speaker 9: when you're doing these deals because we're already in the sixties,
Speaker 9: so he's taking less than that.
Speaker 7: We talked about the percentage of the salary cap. So
Speaker 7: I think both sites in this negotiation have also gotten
Speaker 7: to the point where everybody, yeah, okay, it's going to
Speaker 7: be in the fifties.
Speaker 8: It's a question of how high. It's a question of structure.
Speaker 8: There's still allowed to figure out. But at least they're
Speaker 8: in the.
Speaker 7: Same ballpark with regard to the first number on this
Speaker 7: deal with average per year, Tom.
Speaker 1: Massive contracts like this usually don't get done unless you're
Speaker 1: at least in top ten money for the position. Right now,
Speaker 1: that is over fifty million dollars per year, including for
Speaker 1: a guy for everybody, he's saying, well, you can't build
Speaker 1: around a quarterback making that money. Jalen Hurts is upwards
Speaker 1: of fifty million dollars. That hasn't precluded the Eagles from
Speaker 1: building a Super Bowl Championship caliber a team pretty of course,
Speaker 1: does not have a fifty year option on his contract.
Speaker 1: That's part of the unique dynamics of this. But the
Speaker 1: deadline is coming up on Thursday. Four teams to exercise
Speaker 1: those fifty year options on their first round picks from
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two draft. The Chiefs did that, no brainers.
Speaker 1: Trent McDuffie George car loftis now under contract through twenty
Speaker 1: twenty six, and you would certainly think Kansas City would
Speaker 1: like to get extensions done with both sooner than later.
Speaker 8: He has the upside the ceiling ball steels production.
Speaker 10: There's tremendous upside, a tremendous due is a live arm.
Speaker 1: The blockbuster trade, the trade up, trade down rated outs
Speaker 1: traded in getting out of this pick.
Speaker 6: Certainly open to trading.
Speaker 11: Back the best available at your best available, best player available,
Speaker 11: best available, slid.
Speaker 8: Down, stockpiling and raft Capital mock draft.
Speaker 10: In mock drafts, from the rest of my mock draft,
Speaker 10: I'm going to probably hide under my bed, but.
Speaker 12: This is one I got right.
Speaker 1: Time now for ask the Aces presented by ACE Hardware.
Speaker 1: Tom Pellisera with our Ace Brian Baldinger with us right here, Baldy,
Speaker 1: I won't ask you to break down all the terminology
Speaker 1: and whether or not DJ would have been better served
Speaker 1: getting underneath his bed here, but let's just talk about
Speaker 1: who benefited the most in your mind a couple of
Speaker 1: days to marinate on this draft, what team improved the most.
Speaker 13: Well, when you think about this, Tom, I mean the
Speaker 13: Raiders had eleven picks. They won four games last year
Speaker 13: in the division where Kansas City won fifteen. They've done
Speaker 13: an improve a lot. And so it starts with the
Speaker 13: drafting of this man right here, Ashton gent And it's
Speaker 13: one thing to draft Ashton Genky, it's another thing to
Speaker 13: have a plan for in the history of Pete Carroll
Speaker 13: and also Chip Kelly is they're going to learn how
Speaker 13: and show you how to use a running back. I mean,
Speaker 13: we know what Pete Carroll's history is with Reggie Bush
Speaker 13: at USC with Marshawn Lynch, at Seattle. But Chip Kelly
Speaker 13: when he was the head coach of Philadelphia Shade McCoy
Speaker 13: the rushing title his first year there in Philadelphia. So
Speaker 13: it's one thing to get the back, build the offense
Speaker 13: around the running back and Gino Smith, and then you
Speaker 13: had Jack Best a receiver. They got to replace the
Speaker 13: Bonte Adams from a year ago. And on defense they
Speaker 13: released Jack Jones and starting left corner. How about Darien Porter,
Speaker 13: a big, big, tall corner at Iowa State coming in
Speaker 13: and maybe having a chance to compete for that starting
Speaker 13: corner position. They might have found three starters right away
Speaker 13: for this Raiders team that's trying to close the gap
Speaker 13: with the Chargers in Denver.
Speaker 14: Everybody looking at the Kansas City Chiefs and chasing the
Speaker 14: Chiefs talking to people who around the league. Going into
Speaker 14: this draft, if there was one thing the Raiders needed,
Speaker 14: it was just playmakers. Didn't matter exactly the position, just
Speaker 14: get some playmakers. They did that with their top two picks.
Speaker 14: Let's talk about another team, Baldy, who'd you say improve
Speaker 14: these second most in this draft?
Speaker 13: Well, I mean the Voldema Ravens just know what they're doing,
Speaker 13: they really do. They had eleven picks, and right away
Speaker 13: they picked Malachi Starts. Many people had him as a
Speaker 13: number one safety in this business, and they got to
Speaker 13: replace some safeties that departed from a year ago. But
Speaker 13: you match Malachi Starts along with Kyle Hamilton, you could
Speaker 13: have the two most versatile safeties in the whole business.
Speaker 12: They're interchangeable and versatile.
Speaker 13: And I think in Zach Worr's defense in his second
Speaker 13: year where he really saw growth from his defense as
Speaker 13: the season went on, you could see Malachi in a
Speaker 13: variety of positions.
Speaker 12: And then they go and get Mike Green.
Speaker 13: Now, Mike Green slid all the way down to the
Speaker 13: fifty ninth selection, but many people had him at a
Speaker 13: mid first round pick, and just watching him at the
Speaker 13: Senior Bowl, he might have been as good as end rusher,
Speaker 13: maybe after Abdul Carter in this whole draft. And the
Speaker 13: Ravens get him the paramo with Chuck Smith, their past
Speaker 13: rush specialist coach, to go with what they'd got from
Speaker 13: Kyle van Noy to adape Oway some of the guys
Speaker 13: off the edge, he's going to fit in. And then look,
Speaker 13: I always said this about the Ravens. Tom liked Dave
Speaker 13: Place offensive lineman the way Walmart, you know, replaces things
Speaker 13: off them shelf, you know, and then draft to three
Speaker 13: more offensive linemen, including Emery Jones from LSU. You know,
Speaker 13: who is you know, a bona fide potential starter at
Speaker 13: both tackling guard to just start building that depth, or
Speaker 13: when they have injuries, when they lose guys in free
Speaker 13: agency like they have lost over the years, and they.
Speaker 12: Just get to get next guys up and ready to go.
Speaker 13: So the Ravens do what the Ravens usually do, stockpile
Speaker 13: offensive lineman, find starters right at the top of the draft.
Speaker 12: And that's what they did in this draft.
Speaker 1: Much like Walmart. If you are drafting Emery Jones, you
Speaker 1: are buying in bulk. Baldi, thank you very much. A
Speaker 1: lot more from you coming up in just a little bit.
Speaker 1: But first let's talk fantasy. It's never too early to
Speaker 1: look ahead to your draft. Who will be this year's
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards z layer. Try not to be scarf about that.
Speaker 1: I just mean the running back was a rookie. He
Speaker 1: was gonna get over drafted.
Speaker 6: Is it scataboo?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 2: I let Florio's with answers? Next on the insiders, h.
Speaker 13: Hey Colson, Yes, sir, Hey, it's Ryan posting the Bears.
Speaker 13: How you doing, man, Hey, I'm doing great.
Speaker 6: How you doing good?
Speaker 3: Ready to be in Chicago Bear?
Speaker 2: Let's go, coach, come on, let's go.
Speaker 11: Let's go.
Speaker 12: Yeah it, Oh, we are gonna be great.
Speaker 8: I'm gonna do h hands with your coach Johnson.
Speaker 12: Now, okay, yeah, let's go.
Speaker 2: Come on now, come on, now we're cooking with hot grease. Now, man,
Speaker 2: I'm telling.
Speaker 12: You, hey, thank you so much, coach. I appreciate Mark Closes.
Speaker 12: I mean, well, yeah, I know exactly what we're getting.
Speaker 13: Man, come on you excited?
Speaker 6: Yes, sir, I can't wait.
Speaker 12: I can't wait. Good Bear, good.
Speaker 8: Coleston Loveland, the newest Chicago Bear.
Speaker 7: And a guy that, uh Ben Johnson is going to
Speaker 7: draw some things up for Stacy Dall's. Hey, guy that
Speaker 7: a couple of teams were positioning to potentially trade up
Speaker 7: if he lasted a little bit longer. The Bears, no
Speaker 7: great need, said, let's add a piece, even though we
Speaker 7: have Cole Commet at the tight end position the second round.
Speaker 7: I remember talking to Bucky Brooks and Steve Weisch on
Speaker 7: Saturday on the air on NFL Draft kick Off. They
Speaker 7: were excited about Luther Burden as well being added in
Speaker 7: the second round, so two offensive pieces for Ben Johnson.
Speaker 8: As the remake on offense continues for the Bear stays.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, this.
Speaker 15: Luthor Burden pick is so interesting because we're all sitting there,
Speaker 15: We're thinking he's not going to take a wide receiver
Speaker 15: right sitting there at thirty nine, he's got forty one,
Speaker 15: which they ended up moving back, but they end up
Speaker 15: drafting this guy on your screen.
Speaker 16: And he was one of my favorites Mike and Company
Speaker 16: that I got to.
Speaker 15: Spend time with at the Combine and it's been fun
Speaker 15: to watch his evolution in his growth, Luthor Burden out
Speaker 15: of Missouri. He's really fascinating, and it's not just you know,
Speaker 15: some of the numbers that he's put up and what
Speaker 15: he can do after he catches the football, and that's
Speaker 15: really where they're expecting him to shine, not unlike Alman
Speaker 15: Ross Saint Brown when Ben Jonson and had him obviously
Speaker 15: in Detroit.
Speaker 16: But if you take a look at this full.
Speaker 15: Screen right here, it's a pretty good company, right old
Speaker 15: Jamar Chase, al Sean Jeffery had quite a time in
Speaker 15: the league. Mike Evans, Judy aj Brown, and there's Luther
Speaker 15: Burden right wide receivers out of the SEC with twelve
Speaker 15: hundred plus receiving yards.
Speaker 16: But here's what I really like.
Speaker 15: He is a guy that Bears fans could fall in
Speaker 15: love with because of where he comes from. As I
Speaker 15: learned in talking to him, he obviously comes from a
Speaker 15: pretty tough part of Saint Louis and he grew up
Speaker 15: in a family of ten. He was the second youngest
Speaker 15: of ten. All nine of his siblings were sisters, So
Speaker 15: I think that's interesting. But what's more interesting is it
Speaker 15: wasn't easy for him growing up. He is a very
Speaker 15: resilient young man. In fact, he told me, really, until
Speaker 15: about the fifth grade, he got one pair of shoes
Speaker 15: to wear for the entire school year, and after that
Speaker 15: he got two.
Speaker 16: He loved the retro Jordan's, but he would wear those
Speaker 16: shoes out. It's just a small.
Speaker 15: Share on a testimony to what he kind of went
Speaker 15: through as a kid and how resilient and how tough
Speaker 15: he is.
Speaker 16: And that's the kind of player the Bears are getting.
Speaker 8: You say nine sisters. Is that what you said? He
Speaker 8: had nine sisters?
Speaker 15: Nine sisters, Yes, pretty awesome and that will shape him
Speaker 15: in so many good ways as well.
Speaker 8: Yes he will lots of good ways, lots of good ways.
Speaker 7: That's what I was driving at sails as the only
Speaker 7: guy in this household right here. The rest of the
Speaker 7: NFC North, the Green Bay Packers, Matthew Goldwin in the
Speaker 7: first round, the Vikings right after that, Donavan Jackson, and
Speaker 7: then Tyler Williams for the Lions. Your impressions and what
Speaker 7: the rest of the a NFC North.
Speaker 15: Did in that draft, Yeah, let me rip through it
Speaker 15: real quick. Let's start with the reigning champs of the division.
Speaker 15: That's the Detroit Lions. And no splashiness here right, kind
Speaker 15: of stick typical fashion for Brad Holmes. They go get
Speaker 15: Tyler Williams out of Ohio State. He's going to plug
Speaker 15: up the middle with what should be eventually a healthy
Speaker 15: Allie McNeil and their defensive front.
Speaker 16: And then I just love Tate Ratledge to take him next.
Speaker 16: It's not just the mullet I love.
Speaker 15: I mean it's the best mullet to me entering the
Speaker 15: NFL amongst all these rookies. I don't know how many
Speaker 15: other guys have mullets, but he's just got that nasty streak.
Speaker 15: So I love that they add in the trenches. And
Speaker 15: then you go to Minnesota, right because they were on
Speaker 15: the tail of the Detroit Lions nearly beat him out
Speaker 15: for the divisional champs. But to add Donovan Jackson you
Speaker 15: just mentioned, they ain't playing around. He's going to jump
Speaker 15: right into their that left guard spot. Christian Darisow is
Speaker 15: going to be healthy, and we heard from JJ McCarthy
Speaker 15: today he doesn't build just like hundred percent. He's one
Speaker 15: hundred and ten percent. So I love that they added
Speaker 15: to their offensive line. Remember they only had five picks.
Speaker 15: And then lastly, Green Bay's most interesting. They broke protocol
Speaker 15: we'll say, drafting a wide receiver in Matthew Golden.
Speaker 16: You mentioned Gara follow in the first round for the
Speaker 16: first time since two thousand and two. But it wasn't
Speaker 16: just adding this speedy young man.
Speaker 15: Obviously, you see on your lower third Anthony Belton the
Speaker 15: tackle they taken the second round. But then you jump
Speaker 15: to Saveon Williams out of LSU, that wide receiver and
Speaker 15: beside him, and he is a monster physically.
Speaker 16: And so two receivers within the first.
Speaker 15: Three picks, that tells me Goodcoots kind of looked around
Speaker 15: and said This is a division full of premium, elite playmakers.
Speaker 15: We need more for Jordan Love. Saveingon Williams is interesting.
Speaker 15: How quickly can he develop because he's like six' Five
Speaker 15: mike and he can play. Everything you can line him
Speaker 15: up in the backfield if you want at running.
Speaker 16: Back it'll be.
Speaker 15: Really interesting to see How Jason, vrabel their wide receivers,
Speaker 15: coach develops these guys on the, perimeter six or five.
Speaker 12: Guy in the.
Speaker 7: BACKFIELD i like the sound of, That Stacey. DALE'S i
Speaker 7: like the sound of This Green Bay packers. Draft If
Speaker 7: I'm Jordan, love not so much If I'm Aaron, rodgers
Speaker 7: who for fifteen years is, like, dudes anytime you're, Ready
Speaker 7: Stacey dale's always happy.
Speaker 8: To have you here on the, inside is providing the
Speaker 8: inside of THE Nfc north and.
Speaker 7: Elsewhere ashton, Genty, yes you will be in the spotlight
Speaker 7: In Las, vegas my. Friend if you're being drafted sixth
Speaker 7: overall as a running, back there will be no warm up,
Speaker 7: period there will be no adjustment. Period you are expected
Speaker 7: to carry the football and get over a thousand yards if.
Speaker 7: Possible check out these. Graphics, WOW i WAS i just
Speaker 7: was enamored by the mug THAT i didn't even see
Speaker 7: what it. Was florio's fantastic first Year fantasy. Studs we'll
Speaker 7: start With ashton gen, genty a handsome. Devil were just
Speaker 7: got as MANY x as possible in there like. That,
Speaker 7: yeah cemographic. TEAM i mean that was even.
Speaker 3: Coming, oh like you talk about. It sixth overall pick
Speaker 3: to The. Raiders but get, this you might need to
Speaker 3: take him even earlier than that in fantasy drafts this.
Speaker 10: Year BECAUSE i did a draft this weekend with other
Speaker 10: fantasy analysts after THE nfl, draft.
Speaker 3: He went with the fifth overall pick as the rby.
Speaker 10: Two NOW i Like kamar as the rby four Behind
Speaker 10: saquanbijon And. Gibbs but if you want his elite tackle breaking,
Speaker 10: ability that big playability that he, brings all of the, volume.
Speaker 3: The two hundred and fifty three hundred, touches.
Speaker 10: Whatever it might be that he sees this year on
Speaker 10: A Pete carroll, offensive we know he's gonna run the.
Speaker 10: Ball you're gonna have to use a first round pick on,
Speaker 10: him but it will be worth. It he's gonna run
Speaker 10: all OVER nfl. Defenses but my knicks are The pistons.
Speaker 7: Tonight, Yes that's exactly WHAT i was thinking and not
Speaker 7: looking forward to the next, question which Was Omarion hampton
Speaker 7: and what we're expecting from him in year.
Speaker 10: One, look he is a, huge big body back WHO
Speaker 10: i think his best feature is that he could handle
Speaker 10: a workload from day, one like a workhorse.
Speaker 3: Workload but he's.
Speaker 10: Pairing With Najee, harris who that's his biggest strength as.
Speaker 10: Well hampton is is, Faster he's a bigger play, threat
Speaker 10: but both could be utilized as pass catchers out of the.
Speaker 10: Backfield and we know The chargers want to. Run they
Speaker 10: were in the top ten in rush percent last. SEASON
Speaker 10: i think early on we're gonna see the two running
Speaker 10: backs split, time But hampton has an opportunity as the
Speaker 10: year goes on to carve out more and more of a.
Speaker 10: Workload he is the one THAT i think will be
Speaker 10: better for fantasy of this. Duo but if you want,
Speaker 10: him it's looking like you're gonna have. To he was
Speaker 10: like a fourth round pick in fantasy drafts on. Him
Speaker 10: i'm not sure If i'm in that camp just.
Speaker 7: Yet it's big and a rookie running, Back Tyrone tracy
Speaker 7: did a phenomenal job for The giants last. Year now
Speaker 7: they go out and Draft Cam. Scataboo is this a
Speaker 7: vulture type? Guy what are you seeing For scataboo this?
Speaker 3: SEASON i think he's gonna be better than. That.
Speaker 10: LOOK i know he's A day three running, back but
Speaker 10: he's a fantasy winner because of where he ended up
Speaker 10: with The New York. Giants and like you, Said tracy
Speaker 10: was really good last, year but he's a converted wide
Speaker 10: receiver still learning the running back. POSITION i think we
Speaker 10: could see the two of them split. Time but if
Speaker 10: you're asking me today In, APRIL i Think skataboo could.
Speaker 3: Be the lead runner on this team because he is
Speaker 3: so physical on the.
Speaker 10: Ground he's, elusive he's a tackle, breaker but he is
Speaker 10: an elite pass catching weapon who could be utilized downfield as.
Speaker 10: Well and that is awesome for fantasy because we live
Speaker 10: in A ppr world and pass catching running back.
Speaker 3: Score a lot of. Points in that draft THAT i,
Speaker 3: did he went in the ninth.
Speaker 10: ROUND i think that is a value worth taking because
Speaker 10: there's a lot of upside. There he could be a
Speaker 10: top twenty four fantasy running back with The giants as
Speaker 10: long as he gets opportunities because he is so good
Speaker 10: as a pass.
Speaker 7: Catcher, yeah if you're, saying why did he go so?
Speaker 7: Late If florio sees him as a number one running,
Speaker 7: back there was not that elite top end speed.
Speaker 13: That they like to.
Speaker 8: See but there certainly is power.
Speaker 7: Balance everything you saw, there it certainly is going to
Speaker 7: translate to the next level For camskataboo and The New York.
Speaker 8: Giants michael le F flora were wiping him out of
Speaker 8: here with his fancy.
Speaker 7: Wipes probably not if you want to see all, this we, Are,
Speaker 7: yes we Are florio's fantastic first Year Fantasy.
Speaker 8: Studs you're a, Stud, Florio love you.
Speaker 7: Brother coming, up we are going to talk To baldi
Speaker 7: about who are his offensive and Defensive rookie of The year.
Speaker 8: Candidates maybe It's Travis. Hunter on both, sides what do.
Speaker 6: You, Think welcome back to the. Inside there is Cam
Speaker 6: ward saying he knows what it's like to be at the.
Speaker 6: Bottom he is certainly not at the bottom.
Speaker 5: Anymore he was all the way at the very top
Speaker 5: of the twenty twenty FIVE nfl, draft the number one overall.
Speaker 5: Pick and you know who was at the top with
Speaker 5: Cam ward Our Sarah. Walsh she was posted up with
Speaker 5: The Tennessee titans for the. Draft, sarah welcome.
Speaker 6: Home we probably.
Speaker 5: Didn't spend enough time talking about Cam ward over the.
Speaker 5: Weekend clearly they have enormous expectations for. HIM i Think
Speaker 5: Warren moon given him his number his jersey signifies just
Speaker 5: how much they have hope for Cam.
Speaker 16: Ward, yeah and that was what you just, referenced a
Speaker 16: really special.
Speaker 17: Moment And i've gotten to cover number one overall picks
Speaker 17: before and be embedded with the.
Speaker 16: Team he did not know That Warren moon was going
Speaker 16: to come out and hand him his.
Speaker 17: Jersey, now he had had conversations With Warren moon about
Speaker 17: potentially getting the number one, jersey but the fact That
Speaker 17: Warren moon showed up on that day to introduce him
Speaker 17: was just a really cool. Moment and now it's all
Speaker 17: about getting down to, work getting down to, business and
Speaker 17: that's something is looking forward. To one of the things
Speaker 17: That titans really like about this, guy aside from the obvious,
Speaker 17: talent is his. AWARENESS i Heard Brian callahan use that
Speaker 17: word several, times and he means it in different.
Speaker 16: Ways on the.
Speaker 17: Field he talked about his spatial, awareness knowing where he,
Speaker 17: is being able to process things quickly and then off the.
Speaker 17: Field this kid has a, presence a, maturity and when
Speaker 17: you talk about, AWARENESS i can give an example of
Speaker 17: just being there with.
Speaker 16: Him he comes, over he does an interview with.
Speaker 17: Me after the, interview he hung, around talked to all
Speaker 17: the guys behind the. Camera he was talking to. Photographers
Speaker 17: i'm told that when he walked through the building he
Speaker 17: introduced himself to the folks that were in the ticket
Speaker 17: office selling.
Speaker 16: TICKETS i, mean this.
Speaker 17: Is a kid that acts beyond his. Years he also
Speaker 17: talked to me about wanting to be an elite. Communicator
Speaker 17: so you're seeing him it give you examples of how
Speaker 17: communication is. IMPORTANT i know that he reached out to
Speaker 17: the draft picks that were to follow him on The
Speaker 17: titans immediately after they were taken by the.
Speaker 16: Team as for the day to day, business.
Speaker 17: Yesterday The titans held a press conference really to just
Speaker 17: wrap up the whole, draft And Mike, burgonzither a general,
Speaker 17: manager talked about the fact that now going into this,
Speaker 17: offseason leading into training, camp the reps are going to
Speaker 17: be split equally to begin, with because of course We'll
Speaker 17: levis on that roster in that quarterback. Room but then he,
Speaker 17: said once they get to training, camp that's where it's
Speaker 17: not going to be so equal and guys will start
Speaker 17: to separate. Themselves but they really believe that this guy
Speaker 17: can separate.
Speaker 6: Himself in this.
Speaker 16: League and he was incredibly impressive WHEN i got to meet. Him, judy.
Speaker 6: That's great to.
Speaker 5: Hear they obviously have quite a bit of work to
Speaker 5: do at The, titans though they filled a whole lot
Speaker 5: of other draft.
Speaker 6: Needs would they do with all those other? Picks, Yeah
Speaker 6: the biggest.
Speaker 17: Need clearly was at, quarterback and they took care of
Speaker 17: that first and, foremost and then they traded down in
Speaker 17: the second.
Speaker 16: Round they had a high pick. There they traded.
Speaker 17: Down they took an edge rusher and this was not a,
Speaker 17: Surprise Olowa Femi oladejo out OF. Ucla this was a
Speaker 17: significant need for this. TEAM a season, ago The titans
Speaker 17: had just thirty two. Sacks only two teams had. Less
Speaker 17: they Lost Harold, landry who was their sack leader The,
Speaker 17: patriots so they knew that they had to go and
Speaker 17: get some defensive players and the ideas that these guys
Speaker 17: are going to step in, immediately especially this, player and
Speaker 17: compete from the, beginning and then of, course all eyes
Speaker 17: were on how are you going to surround Kim ward with.
Speaker 17: Weapons in the free agency, period they did add offensive
Speaker 17: lineman to this team to bolster that.
Speaker 3: Line and then in the.
Speaker 17: Fourth round they used three picks all on offensive. Weapons
Speaker 17: they took a tight, end they took two wide. Receivers
Speaker 17: Brian callahan talked about those. Receivers, hey they needed to
Speaker 17: get speedy. There they Have Calvin ridley on the. Roster
Speaker 17: they just Signed Tyler, lockett a, veteran but now they
Speaker 17: have Jim RAY dk out Of. Florida he talked about
Speaker 17: the fact that he played Kim ward three times in
Speaker 17: college because he also played At wisconsin and then At,
Speaker 17: florida and how special it will be to finally get
Speaker 17: together and play alongside.
Speaker 16: Him and then the other wide out they took and.
Speaker 17: This is a special One elick iomanor his, mother this
Speaker 17: is the closet part of his. STORY a big, receiver
Speaker 17: big catch Radius. Judy his mother is a competitive arm.

Speaker 5: i want to hear who are your Offensive rookie of
Speaker 5: The year.
Speaker 13: Favorites, WELL i passed on Cam ward BECAUSE i have
Speaker 13: three other, Candidates, judy THAT i really think need to
Speaker 13: be featured.
Speaker 12: In one of them Is Ashton.
Speaker 13: Genty just because of the commitment that we know That
Speaker 13: Pete carroll and offensive Coordinator Chip kelly are going to.
Speaker 13: GET i got to believe That Ashton genty is going
Speaker 13: to get a minimum of three hundred touches between running
Speaker 13: the football and his exceptional ability to catch it in
Speaker 13: the screen, game in the checkdown.
Speaker 12: Game so you Give.
Speaker 13: Ashton genty three hundred plus, touches he's going to get
Speaker 13: you a whole lot of, yards a chance for that
Speaker 13: offensive rookie.
Speaker 12: Year the other GUY i have Is Ty.
Speaker 13: Warn Time warren somehow fell to The Indianapolis colts to number,
Speaker 13: Fourteen and if you think about this jury last, Year
Speaker 13: Alec pearce led The colts in receiving yards with thirty seven.
Speaker 13: Catches like you, Know Time warren might get that in
Speaker 13: the first month of the. Season he's going to get.
Speaker 13: Targeted he is an easy guy to. Find whoever the quarterback,
Speaker 13: Gets Anthony, Richardson Daniel, jones whoever it might. BE i
Speaker 13: got to believe That Ty warren is going to get
Speaker 13: tar so many times this year that he's going to
Speaker 13: be a. Candidate and, then, finally you can't Leave Travis
Speaker 13: hunter out of this. Conversation we don't yet know exactly
Speaker 13: How Liam kohen is going to use. Him we know
Speaker 13: That Brian Thomas junior was a great draft, pick the
Speaker 13: fourth receiver taken a year.
Speaker 12: Ago he's a he's got deep speed and ability to.
Speaker 13: Separate but so Does Travis hunter and his ability to
Speaker 13: adjust to the, ball like we're seeing these catches right.
Speaker 13: HERE i got to Believe Travis hunter is going to
Speaker 13: be in that conversation BECAUSE i believe he's going to
Speaker 13: wow us on a bunch Of sunday afternoons this.
Speaker 5: Year Well's Travis hunter also going to be in the
Speaker 5: conversation for Defensive rookie of The.
Speaker 11: Year what say, You Baldly, WELL i, mean, look let's
Speaker 11: look at the, defenses because you were there at you,
Speaker 11: know At MetLife there at the trading facility for The,
Speaker 11: giants and Out Dull carter walks through the door.
Speaker 13: And he's just you, know he's going to light that defense.
Speaker 13: Up and however they decide to, use whether it's off the,
Speaker 13: edge whether it's splits it in the, middle whether it's fine,
Speaker 13: quarterback he's going to get a chance to put up
Speaker 13: a lot of numbers and fill up the stat sheet
Speaker 13: like he did At Penn state for the last three.
Speaker 12: Years So i've got to.
Speaker 13: Believe that Al Dul carter is going to be in
Speaker 13: that running For Defensive player of The. Year and then
Speaker 13: my next choice Was Mikel, williams the eleventh pick in the.
Speaker 13: Draft The San francisco forty nine ers are looking to
Speaker 13: rebuild their defensive, line and you've Got Nick bosa on one.
Speaker 13: Side they Drafted Alfred collins in the middle to give
Speaker 13: you some. Push And Mikel, williams who was basically hurt
Speaker 13: all year last year with that high angle, Spring he's
Speaker 13: going to come in.
Speaker 12: Healthy he's an elite.
Speaker 13: Talent and If bosa's getting a lot of double, Teams
Speaker 13: Mikel williams has the ability to beat one on ones
Speaker 13: with tackles or slide protections or anything.
Speaker 12: Else So Mikel williams is in that.
Speaker 13: Conversation and THEN i want to talk About Jaday, baron
Speaker 13: the talented corner.
Speaker 12: Who could be their star, corner could play.
Speaker 13: Outside play opposite Of Patrick sirtan and Advance joseph's defense right.
Speaker 12: Here he could be that.
Speaker 13: Playmaker then if if you Know Patrick sirtan is locked
Speaker 13: up on a tight end or number one, Receiver baron's
Speaker 13: going to get that, opportunity whether it's inside or. Outside
Speaker 13: and his ball skills and what he demonstrated A. Texas
Speaker 13: we just Saw dever turn out the defensive player of the.
Speaker 13: Year why can't they turn out the Defensive rookie of
Speaker 13: The year and the skills That Jaday baron.
Speaker 6: Possesses that is going to be a very fun secondary to. Watch.
Speaker 6: Baldi thank you very.
Speaker 12: Much, then how you. Doing, hey we're about to put
Speaker 12: your card. In you're gonna be A.
Speaker 2: BUCK i appreciate, that, MAN i really do.

Speaker 12: Coach then we're really fired.

Speaker 3: It.
Speaker 9: Man how you.
Speaker 2: Doing i'm good, Man. Welcome i'm not gonna let you, Know.
Speaker 6: MACK i know you're.
Speaker 12: NOT i know you're.
Speaker 16: Not you'll be great.
Speaker 8: Here it would be great, here looking forward to.
Speaker 9: You thank you so.
Speaker 4: Much you got, it, Man calm, down relax and tell
Speaker 4: you THAT i said, High, OKAY i, WILL i.
Speaker 1: Will you got.
Speaker 8: It i'll see you later.
Speaker 16: On.
Speaker 1: Man i'm getting emotional watching that right. There Benjamin morrison
Speaker 1: getting the call from The. Bucks welcome back to the,
Speaker 1: Insiders Tom, Pella, Serio Judy, Batista Mike, garafolo And Brian.
Speaker 2: Baldinger, judy you got a story right.
Speaker 1: NOW nfl Dot com Slash batista after the draft looking
Speaker 1: at the remaining off season to do list for all
Speaker 1: thirty two, teams The bucks said Benjam, morrison they had
Speaker 1: A MECCA buca with their first round.
Speaker 2: Pick what's left In.
Speaker 5: Tampa, well they got to put that whole pass defense.
Speaker 5: Together their pass defense really struggled last.
Speaker 6: Season it was one of the worst in the. League
Speaker 6: they only had seven, interceptions which.
Speaker 5: Probably explains why the drafted two cornerbacks and two edge
Speaker 5: rushers in addition to two wide. Receivers but they really
Speaker 5: went after their pass. Defense they need to get that
Speaker 5: together in the off season because, look this team has
Speaker 5: dominated if you can say anybody dominates THE Nfc, south
Speaker 5: but it has been dominant in THE Nfc south Since
Speaker 5: Tom brady. Left they keep winning the. Division if that
Speaker 5: pass defense can get, better they should be able to
Speaker 5: keep pace with some of the OTHER nfc.
Speaker 13: Contenders and along the, Way judy adjacent, light the general,
Speaker 13: manager is becoming one of the better architects in this.
Speaker 13: Business and so you just addressed the, secondary which she needed,
Speaker 13: work and they have done. That BUT i, think AND
Speaker 13: i just want to say this BECAUSE i know, this
Speaker 13: like when you look at the offensive line Worse Bretison
Speaker 13: Barton Mark gett a. Key it's a very good starting.
Speaker 13: Five but they didn't add anybody in the. Draft they
Speaker 13: didn't add anybody via free. Agency so if there's work
Speaker 13: to be, DONE i feel like they could add some
Speaker 13: depth quality. Debt in case those players which basically stayed
Speaker 13: healthy all year last, YEAR i would say depth on
Speaker 13: the offense line still might be a little bit of
Speaker 13: an issue for The.
Speaker 7: Bucks all, Right, judy the off season checklist left for The,
Speaker 7: STEELERS i don't know what The steelers have left to.
Speaker 5: Do, Duty, yeah maybe figure out who is going to
Speaker 5: be the starting. Quarterback they, Did they did draft a,
Speaker 5: quarterback but they did not yet real in the quarterback
Speaker 5: that they want and that we all still expect to
Speaker 5: be the starting.
Speaker 6: Quarterback Aaron rodgers is still out.
Speaker 5: There The steelers still remain somewhat confident that he is
Speaker 5: going to be the. Quarterback, certainly you would think if
Speaker 5: they did not feel as confident that they would have
Speaker 5: gone quarterback earlier in the. Draft they did. Not they
Speaker 5: Took Will howard in the sixth. Round they went defense
Speaker 5: early because this is The Pittsburgh. Steelers of, course they
Speaker 5: did With Derek, harmon who will be mentored By Cam.
Speaker 5: Hayward that is a fantastic fit for, them but let's be,
Speaker 5: real he can't evaluate The Pittsburgh steelers. Offseason we have
Speaker 5: no idea what this team is going to look like
Speaker 5: until they get the quarterback situation.
Speaker 6: Settled.
Speaker 13: JUDY i Saw Mike tomlin down at The Senior bowl
Speaker 13: this year looking at this crop of defensive.
Speaker 12: Linemen and he knew who he was jeeling and they
Speaker 12: had to.
Speaker 13: Restock So Derek, Harmon Yahya black From, Ohiowa Jack sawyer
Speaker 13: From Ohio. State they got that group and then they
Speaker 13: added the running Back Caleb, johnson which they had to.
Speaker 12: Do but really in the draft will have.
Speaker 13: THEM i, mean the only thing really left to do
Speaker 13: is to Get Aaron rodgers in there and get him,
Speaker 13: working get, him you, know get him to KNOW Dj metcalf.
Speaker 12: And you know the receivers and who he's going to
Speaker 12: be thrown, to and getting to know the.
Speaker 13: GUYS i, mean as sooner the BETTER i would think
Speaker 13: that build some camaraderie and some confidence that he's going
Speaker 13: to be, there learn the, offense and then.
Speaker 2: Do it his.
Speaker 12: Way but that's that's really the remaining piece In pittsburgh right.
Speaker 1: Now when THE Nfl draft, ends and really in the
Speaker 1: late rounds of, it there's a man dash to add
Speaker 1: some of the top undrafted. Players that Includes Kobe, bryant
Speaker 1: the defensive back who is headed to The Atlanta, Falcons Shiloh,
Speaker 1: sanders you might have heard a little bit about his.
Speaker 1: Brother shiloh is headed To tampa to join The. Buccaneers
Speaker 1: also Had Donovan, edwards Former michigan football running, back headed
Speaker 1: to The. Jets there are literally hundreds more players getting their,
Speaker 1: opportunities and every year we see dozens of those guys
Speaker 1: who end up making rosters and sometimes as even those
Speaker 1: players The John randalls of the world who one day
Speaker 1: we'll put on a gold.
Speaker 2: Jacket welcome back to the.
Speaker 1: Insiders Tom, Pellicero Judy, Battista Mike, garafolo and our undrafted
Speaker 1: free Agent brian Baldi.

Speaker 14: What?
Speaker 13: Well back, Then Gil brandt was a general manager and
Speaker 13: they signed so many free ations that they didn't have
Speaker 13: enough scouts to sign, them so they sent everybody in
Speaker 13: the organization out to go Sign so the equipment manager.
Speaker 12: Knocked on my.
Speaker 13: Door, buck you, canon you, know with a five hundred
Speaker 13: dollars three year, contract five hundred dollars, bonus AND i

Speaker 12: Skills you go from a.
Speaker 13: Five hundred dollars bonus With buck to a twelve hundred
Speaker 13: and fifty dollars signing bonus SO i could get my
Speaker 13: breaks to my.
Speaker 12: Board Fury.
Speaker 13: Wow BUT i would say, THIS i would say this
Speaker 13: To Kobe bryant And Silo, sanders like come and, shape
Speaker 13: getting the best, condition avoid, injury do your own, Treatment
Speaker 13: take every possible rep you, can no matter where you line,
Speaker 13: up and then learn.
Speaker 12: The playbook inside.
Speaker 13: Out and, like if you're a right guard LIKE i,
Speaker 13: was or left, guard go up against the best player
Speaker 13: that in that case In dolls it Was Randy.
Speaker 12: White go take every rep Against Randy, white get your.
Speaker 13: Butt whipped for a little, bit and then figure out
Speaker 13: a way to beat them and to stowe them and
Speaker 13: to stop them from getting to a. Quarterback and that
Speaker 13: will get people's. Attention and that's what you're trying to.
Speaker 13: Do you try to compete and get people's. Attention you
Speaker 13: get them to know your. Name you can do those
Speaker 13: kind of things you can make a name for yourself
Speaker 13: LIKE i did one, Day.
Speaker 2: JUDY.
Speaker 6: I just want to, know were you intimidated at all
Speaker 6: as an undrafted free? Agent?
