1
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: The one Bill's Live, presented by Callida Health. All Right,

2
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: welcome in, everybody. A day or two removed from the

3
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five NFL Draft, it's in the books and

4
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: joining us in studio right off the rip here is

5
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: general manager Brandon Bean, who selected nine players and will

6
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: be adding a collection of undrafted players before rookie mini

7
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: camp gets rolling. So Brandon, glad you can exhale and

8
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: take a breath now. So the draft class wound up

9
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: leaning heavily on the defensive side of the ball, and

10
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: I think some of us anticipated it would, not just

11
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 1: because of perceived needs, but because of where the strengths

12
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: of this class kind of lied as well. Can you

13
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 1: remember a draft that lined up as favorably to your

14
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: perceived positional needs as this one did.

15
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: That's a great question, Chris. I'd have to think about that.

16
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: Not in probably the most recent years.

17
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 3: No.

18
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 2: I would say you nailed it in the sense that

19
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 2: when we really dig in deep in the draft in

20
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: our February meetings, when the scouts are here a couple

21
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: of weeks were grinding through and you're trying to eliminate

22
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,199
Speaker 2: guys that you've been through that process that don't fit

23
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: you personally or how they play or their style, and

24
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: so we were eliminating guys, but a lot of the

25
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: D line stayed, and you really felt going to Indianapolis

26
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,279
Speaker 2: and we lined up a lot of guys to interview,

27
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: let's see if any of these eliminating themselves, and for

28
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: the most part.

29
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 4: A good portion of them stayed.

30
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 2: We did eliminate some for some reasons, but for the

31
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: most part, a good a good portion stayed, and we're like,

32
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: let's take advantage of this when it fits.

33
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 4: Let's don't just take.

34
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 2: One and say, oh, well we got one, Let's go

35
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: take another position.

36
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 4: If there's a guy sticking out.

37
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 2: Now, maybe if we're equal value and we've already taken

38
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: a D lineman or D tackle in the case of

39
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: why do we go back to Dion Walker, Well, he

40
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 2: was sticking out and we felt like too good a

41
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: value in the fourth round to pass up.

42
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 3: And this is one of those drafts as well. For

43
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 3: your five first picks or the spots that everybody's been

44
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: talking about, particularly on our show, we're getting called his

45
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 3: corner and his defensive line corner, its edge, it's defensive tackle.

46
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 3: And you got five guys right out of the gate,

47
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 3: and he brought in competition not only for the guys

48
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 3: that are already on the RUSS did you sign the veterans,

49
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 3: but also with his draft class, you got three corners,

50
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 3: three defensive linemen that that's going to be a really

51
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 3: hot competition coming into training camp.

52
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 5: And like you said, competition make you better.

53
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's the ultimate goal when we start

54
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 2: every offseason, before we go to Indianapolis, before we start

55
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 2: free agency, is you know, how do we build as

56
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 2: much depth and competition. You do look at some spots

57
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 2: and you say, Okay, no one's competing with Josh Allen

58
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: to be the charter. But there's other spots that you're like, hey,

59
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 2: we need someone to compete.

60
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 4: We do not just.

61
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: Because this player started here last year doesn't mean that's

62
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: what we want this year. And if they are going

63
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: to start, we need someone to make them raise the level.

64
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 2: And so that's what you're doing through the spring. And

65
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: to your point, I think some of those positions you

66
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: hit on it will be some fun battles. I mentioned

67
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: that the other night. When we get to Saint John

68
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: Fisher and the pads are on. I know, you Steve,

69
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: you're probably gonna be down there watching the D line

70
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: and the O line, going, Yeah, big guys are more fun.

71
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. I tried to ask you this question Saturday night.

72
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: Brandon and Hinzight probably could have asked it better, So

73
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try again. Your board is what governs you

74
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: and your decision making, and it should because you and

75
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: your staff spend an entire year putting it together to

76
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: come up with the information to stack it. When you

77
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: trade up twice for defensive tackles, it can look on

78
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: the outside like there are additional influences playing a factor

79
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: in those decisions. Is it really just rooted in believing

80
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: that what prompts you to move? Is it really rooted

81
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: in believing that other teams have a specific prospect you

82
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: have your eye on and they're not going to last

83
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: because other teams feel similarly. Or is it more general

84
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: supply and demand kind of deal.

85
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 4: I think it's all the above.

86
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 2: You're putting all the facts together and you've built your board.

87
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 4: If your board is wrong, then it doesn't matter.

88
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: Even if you're building it and you're putting the work

89
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: and you're you have to trust your board. That is

90
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 2: what you're putting all your time and effort starts with

91
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 2: our college scouts. We ad our pro scouts towards the end,

92
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: and we ad our coaches the last two months. And

93
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 2: you're putting all of that medical data. You're putting all

94
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: of that into build your board. There's guys that they're

95
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 2: like a d medical that maybe belong in the second round,

96
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 2: but we have some longevity concerns.

97
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 4: Maybe we put them around or two lower. So all

98
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 4: those things you build your board now how you value them.

99
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 2: And then when you have a player like TJ Sanders

100
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: the first trade up we did, who is sticking on your.

101
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 4: Board and he meets a need? What are you waiting on?

102
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 4: Go get them if you can find a partner. Now,

103
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 4: there's been times before guys.

104
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 2: Have been taken and people probably probably wonder, why didn't

105
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 2: you go get that guy?

106
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 4: Well, maybe we couldn't find a trade partner.

107
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 2: There has to be that someone willing to move back,

108
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: something that makes sense of what you've got to give

109
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 2: up to go up.

110
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 4: And in this case with TG.

111
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 2: Or again with with Dion, these also hit places of

112
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: need for your team and they're sticking on your board.

113
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 2: Do you know if they're going to fall to you

114
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 2: or do you know that you know, but if you

115
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 2: feel that highly about them and you're going, man, there's

116
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 2: fifteen picks between you and them, odds are some at

117
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 2: least all it takes is one that can take them.

118
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 4: And that's what you worry about.

119
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 3: That's what you don't know is if you feel that

120
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 3: highly about them, you figure, gosh, somebody else does too, right,

121
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 3: one other person?

122
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 6: Right?

123
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, you went into the draft with ten picks, you

124
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 3: came out with nine.

125
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 5: And I know, we don't know how this is going

126
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 5: to go.

127
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 3: We like the picks, I mean, the positions are great,

128
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 3: letting you know what a win of us know. But

129
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 3: there was a big consensus and I think it's pretty accurate.

130
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 4: It's hard.

131
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 5: It's a hard roster to make.

132
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 3: And I went in the draft, I think saying a

133
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 3: lot of teams wish they had our needs, you know,

134
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 3: because there's a lot of teams that have a further

135
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 3: way to go than we do. You know, starting with

136
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 3: Josh and the whole thing, what is yours feel about

137
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 3: your gut feel about how many of these guys are

138
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 3: going to be on the fifty three And you know,

139
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: certainly there's you know, three corners that'd be hard for

140
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 3: all three of those guys to get on there. Although

141
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 3: we you know, we got a guy we just extended

142
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,119
Speaker 3: who was a sixth rounder. So what are your thoughts about,

143
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 3: you know, the depth of this class and you got

144
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,799
Speaker 3: you know, a lot of positional.

145
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, year after drafting ten. Yeah, he's drafted night right.

146
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

147
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a hard roster to make. I get your question,

148
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: and it makes sense, and we asked that in here.

149
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 2: What you know, part of that truly is following the

150
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 2: board late in the draft and you start asking yourself

151
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 2: the question, all right, how does this player make the roster?

152
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: And sometimes it's on fourth down that's like he's going

153
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: to beat out someone else who it could even be

154
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: at a different position. This this fifth corner or fourth

155
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,239
Speaker 2: corner beats out a sixth wide receiver. It doesn't always

156
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 2: come up with the same position. And and you know

157
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 2: we did draft three corners, but it's really two outside corners.

158
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 2: Hancock is we're looking at him as a nickel safety,

159
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 2: so more in that camp the way we've used Cam.

160
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 4: Lewis, but could play outside.

161
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: And so you would love it for a guy like

162
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: him if he comes in and show his worth, that's

163
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: a game day Jersey roster.

164
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 4: Saver, right, that can play all those those spots, the.

165
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 3: Safety net for the roster if somebody goes down and

166
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 3: plus he's playing teams.

167
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 4: Did you say safety net like no pun intended? Or

168
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 4: would I mean safety?

169
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 6: Good?

170
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: Does it all the time the time, But.

171
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 2: That's talking about he's safety and you said safety nets safety?

172
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 6: Yeah?

173
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: Okay, see, I told you.

174
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 7: Job.

175
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 5: You said.

176
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: One of the one of the more eye opening things

177
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: you said Saturday night after your class was put to

178
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: bed was that if Dion Walker came out in the

179
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 1: twenty four draft, based on the junior season he had,

180
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: he'd be a first round pick. And I'm thinking, dang,

181
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: and you got him in the fourth because he played

182
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 1: with a back injury last season and his production suffered.

183
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: His leverage wasn't as good as pad level wasn't as good.

184
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 1: It kind of affected his production. Do you think this

185
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: deep class of defensive tackles is why he slipped that

186
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: for or are there that many teams out there that

187
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: look at a drop in production and just move on

188
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: without digging deeper and doing the work. I'm not saying

189
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: that other teams don't do the work, but to the

190
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: degree maybe that some other clubs do it. Like yourselves.

191
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think ultimately, Chris, you know, there could maybe

192
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 2: to some teams it was a turnoff like I didn't see, Hey,

193
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 2: I didn't maybe I didn't see an effort on play

194
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 2: that I saw the year before or what happened.

195
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 6: Or.

196
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 2: Ultimately didn't feel like felt like the drop off. Is

197
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 2: he trending that way or is or is it an anomaly?

198
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: Which which am I getting? Am I getting twenty twenty three?

199
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 2: D on or twenty and so listen. I've talked to

200
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 2: enough people. I feel like he was going to go

201
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 2: pretty soon. There's some other players quite candidly that fell

202
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 2: to four also that we were surprised, not many, but

203
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: a few that it just sometimes it happens, you know.

204
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 2: Khalil Shakir was a guy we had a real good,

205
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 2: great on and sometimes just there's runs on positions. I

206
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 2: think part of it is the depth of the draft.

207
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,839
Speaker 2: People hit a spot and started pivoting elsewhere, nervous that

208
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 2: by the time they got around to them later they

209
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 2: may not be there. And we just said, yes, we're

210
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 2: going to lose out on something else we are, right,

211
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 2: but if we can get this guy close to what

212
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: he was in twenty twenty three.

213
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 4: That's a no brainer pick.

214
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, because there were to your point, there were ten

215
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: defensive linemen taking in round one and another nine in

216
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: round two. Yeah, so I get what you're saying. How

217
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: other teams just pivoted to other positions later?

218
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 4: That makes sense.

219
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 3: Give us an idea of because we your overall thoughts

220
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 3: about this draft. I think it seems to us it

221
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 3: went really well. And you know, all my buddies and

222
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: because I was, you know, I was actually watching the

223
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 3: draft take an interest, and so.

224
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 5: Was everybody else.

225
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 3: They're like, what do you think? Like, I'm no, only

226
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 3: I'm asking you, like what do I know? But I

227
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 3: told him, I said, the first three guys you got Harrison, Sanders,

228
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 3: and Jackson. At one point when our run up, they

229
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 3: were all mocked to the Bills in the first round.

230
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy.

231
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 3: So these guys do have some chops that you can

232
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 3: look forward to. And that's I mean. I was like,

233
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 3: oh my gosh, cause I can't keep it's hard to

234
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 3: keep track of the whole I don't have a board.

235
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: Yeah right, and I was like, who's out there? Who's

236
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 3: out there? And you knew these guys this Landon Jackson,

237
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 3: that you see the transformation from him from when he

238
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 3: was a young player to an upper player. How close

239
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 3: to his ceiling is he at this point, because it

240
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 3: looks to me like he still got some juice.

241
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 4: I think he does. I think well said I was

242
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 4: talking about.

243
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 2: This earlier, like, this is a guy that he is

244
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 2: a good player. He plays hard, he has great feel

245
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: for the game, but there's still some rush stuff that

246
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: when he gets some pro coaching and the other part

247
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: of that. He surprised me how well he athletically tested.

248
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: And sometimes that doesn't translate on the field because guy's

249
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 2: last lack instincts or feel for the game.

250
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 4: He has that, and so I'm going, man, I thought.

251
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 2: He would be an average to above average tester. Some

252
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: of the things he did was a let means verticals

253
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: forty or forty one, something crazy for six sixth guy

254
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: like that. So I do think and to your point,

255
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 2: I think all our first four picks, all those guys

256
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 2: at one point were being mocked, if not to us,

257
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 2: to other teams in the in the first round. So

258
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 2: we just felt, let's take advantage of the value of.

259
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 4: The d line depth of this draft.

260
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: Your fifth round tight end Jackson Hawes is an IVY

261
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: League grad, spent his last year at Georgia Tech, which

262
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 1: isn't an easy academic school either. But he looks like

263
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: a throwback in line tight end and your roster seemed

264
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: to be in need of a tight end that can

265
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: do some of that dirty work. Would you put him

266
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: in we've kind of heard some things about him. Would

267
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,359
Speaker 1: you put him in the Lee Smith on field demeanor category?

268
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I think Jackson is you know, he's

269
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 4: not as big as Lee.

270
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: Lee was a giant, but yes, I mean he is

271
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 2: a classic why tight end. But I do think there

272
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: are athletic traits in him. I don't think he you know,

273
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 2: is he going to be a mismatch mando man. No,

274
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 2: but he's got feel, he's got size, he's.

275
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 4: Got length, he's got good hands.

276
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 2: He catches the ball great, understands the game very well,

277
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 2: you know you which you would probably think going to IVY,

278
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 2: even going to Georgia Tech. So if you know, our

279
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 2: best blocker today is Dawson Knox, and Dawson, to his credit,

280
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 2: came out as a.

281
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 4: Receiving tight end.

282
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 2: That's that's really a three down player. If he went

283
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: down or if there now we can go some packages

284
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 2: and run with Dawson and him in there, and it

285
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 2: saves Kincaid from some of that stuff. So I think

286
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 2: it just gives us more versatility to what we can do,

287
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 2: you know, and how we line up.

288
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 4: And again, if something happens to Dawson, you feel.

289
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: Really good about him coming in and being that that

290
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: blocker for us.

291
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 5: Well, it's the in this draft.

292
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 3: What was the biggest surprise player that you draft? One

293
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 3: of these guys that you draft that you thought, wow,

294
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 3: he's who's the biggest value pick that you thought, Wow,

295
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 3: he can't believe he's still on the board.

296
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I could make a case for a

297
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 2: few of these guys. The guy that Jordan Hancock from

298
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 2: Ohio State was a guy that our scouts I have

299
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 2: them do on Monday before the draft. I give him

300
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 2: a few scenarios and I put them in three different

301
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 2: groups and they present to me and our executive staff

302
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: Terry sitting in there too. It's a good chance for

303
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 2: them to present, but it's also a good chance for

304
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 2: them to at the final at the finish line, give

305
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: me in these scenarios who they're really convicted on. And

306
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 2: the guy that came up the most with one of

307
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 2: mine was undervalued mid round pick, which we called like

308
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 2: three to five or whatever, undervalued stock like who who would?

309
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: And he came up four times more than any player,

310
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 2: not four times more, he came up four times, which

311
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 2: was more than any player. So when we when when

312
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 2: he came up like we were he was one of

313
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: those ones, we were sweating a sweating and sweating it.

314
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 4: The pick is in before and we can now pick him.

315
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 2: My turnaround behind me in the draft room is all

316
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: of our you know, area national scouts.

317
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 4: So I turned around and I saw.

318
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 2: As much enthusiasm from that as any pick there was,

319
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: because there's a lot of guys in there that are

320
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 2: fired up. So again I can make some cases for

321
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 2: some other players, but if you ask my college scouts,

322
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 2: they would say that's the guy.

323
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: They would say, I'm sure you heard about this, the

324
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: prank call to Shadur Sanders, which is getting investigated by

325
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: the league. But when we talked to Chase Lunt, the

326
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: offensive tackle from Yukon that you selected on Day three,

327
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: he told us he got like three or four of

328
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: those kinds of calls.

329
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 5: What are you.

330
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: Expecting the league to do in terms of, you know,

331
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: they deal out these phone numbers so teams can contact

332
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: the player make sure they're alive before they get drafted.

333
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: And this has become a huge negative. How do you

334
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: how do you police that? How do you think the

335
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: NFL is going to react to this stuff? Because that

336
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a kid's best day of his life

337
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: and you got these Debbie Downers reckon it.

338
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's disappointing, you know.

339
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 2: I'm sure the young man knows he made a mistake,

340
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 2: but it's happened before. We've heard stories this one.

341
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 8: You know.

342
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 2: Obviously they you know, recorded it or whatever, and so

343
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 2: it was easy to find out where it was coming from.

344
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 2: But it is disappointing that that happens to some of

345
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 2: these players. And like I said, I've heard it, you know,

346
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 2: it's It's one of those things I've always thought, I've

347
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 2: always wondered, like because we do get a list with

348
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 2: all their numbers, and it's like, man, that could easily

349
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: end up in the wrong person's hands. Like even if

350
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: it's like somebody prints it out and drops it in

351
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 2: the waste basket and it could. I'm surprised it hasn't happened. More.

352
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 2: I don't have the solution, I don't, because you do

353
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 2: want to call the player, make sure he's breathing all systems.

354
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 4: Ago before we turn the pick in.

355
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 2: So I'm disappointed for those players at their moment, you know.

356
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 4: Starting with Shadur and Chase Lunt. And I know somebody

357
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 4: said it happened to Cooper de Jean last year.

358
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 2: I've heard of some others and yeah, Chase brought it

359
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 2: up on my call is with him?

360
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 5: He uh was?

361
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: He like, is are you really the bills?

362
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 4: He said, is this for real? And I say, yes,

363
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 4: this is this is a Buffalo. And I think it

364
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 4: was his dad with him. Why he goes his reason.

365
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 2: He's asked because he's been prank called today about it.

366
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, it's terrible. Well nope, I

367
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,199
Speaker 2: promise you this.

368
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 5: You know, this is it.

369
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 4: You're getting drafted a Buffalo.

370
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 9: You can.

371
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: But it's sad that that that happened.

372
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 4: We need to hopefully hopefully this was a bad lesson

373
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 4: and and and we get this corrected.

374
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 5: With this draft. Was there any like, for instance.

375
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 3: You got I mean with Max Harriston, I mean you

376
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 3: got a lot faster in the secondary right away. Was

377
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 3: there any kind of overriding thing with these positions, like

378
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 3: the guys on the d line, or the guy the

379
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 3: corners that you took, even the wide receiver. Pray, there

380
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 3: was there anything that that maybe we're going to emphasize

381
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,360
Speaker 3: this year the last year, like you wanted your guys

382
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 3: to be a little faster this year.

383
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 5: I mean, you always want to be.

384
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 3: Faster, and there's always nuance to everything. Was there anything

385
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 3: overriding that you want to go in and say, look,

386
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 3: and we want to help change the personality or a

387
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 3: little bit of the identity of our team, and this

388
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 3: draft class can help us do that.

389
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I thought, listen, you do. You're right,

390
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 2: you said it. You always want to add speed anywhere

391
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 2: you can. You can't get enough of it. I always

392
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: emphasize we got to make sure there's still good football players.

393
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 4: It's not on a track, as you know.

394
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 2: I would say up front, we if we felt we

395
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 2: had good players, we wanted to emphasize size.

396
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 4: And length on the d line, especially if we could do.

397
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 2: That some dog you know what I mean, just getting

398
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 2: a little more gritty, and if we could do that,

399
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 2: if they all line up again, I'm not going to

400
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 2: pass on a player let's just say at Oliver does

401
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 2: not have a prototypical size and a link, but he

402
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 2: makes up for it. I'm not going to pass on

403
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 2: a guy like that for a lesser player, But when

404
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 2: they line up and it's close, let's go for the bigger, longer, stronger.

405
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 4: And you know we resoundingly did that with Dean Walker.

406
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, what's he gonna play it?

407
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 2: Like three forty five or I mean he'll probably play

408
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 2: in the three thirties, maybe maybe low three forties.

409
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 4: We'll see when he gets in here.

410
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 2: It's more to us about body cop mass, how you

411
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 2: move versus your actual weight. So we go beyond just

412
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 2: the number itself. Uh, three point thirty on this person

413
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: can be totally different.

414
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he don't look sloppy at all.

415
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 2: He's yeah, and he was a basketball player, and he's

416
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 2: got hands and fan So again, as Brian Gain, I'll

417
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 2: give him credit.

418
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 4: He lose to this all the time in the draft room.

419
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 5: You know we're talking.

420
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 4: He goes there just aren't very many men walking the

421
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:36,959
Speaker 4: earth that look like this.

422
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, just we call him the one percent.

423
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 4: That's that's what I'm saying, less than less less than

424
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 4: one percent.

425
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 3: There's genetically different. That's why they go high at the

426
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 3: You got to get the guys who nobody's like that. Yeah, right, exactly,

427
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 3: those are the guys you gotta get. And there's because

428
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 3: there's a lot. I mean, you go down and listen

429
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 3: like Max Harrison, Okay, Jordan Hancock, you know, Dorian Strong

430
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 3: Cayden prayed that those are athletes. I mean there's guys well,

431
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 3: you know, Joe Andreesen was watching the games three years ago, right,

432
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 3: So there's guys in the stands that are like that. Yeah,

433
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 3: there's no Don Walkers in the stands.

434
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 4: No, we don't have seats big enough for him.

435
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: So those are they.

436
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 3: Really gotta you gotta vet those guys, and when they

437
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 3: come along, you gotta grab them because they are difference makers.

438
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 3: They can't they have the potential to be huge difference makers.

439
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, at the at a minimum, he's gonna

440
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 2: be a large man in there if he's if he's yeah,

441
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 2: even the twenty twenty four version that was less consistent,

442
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 2: could serve a very good role as just a large

443
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 2: space heater. If we get him, you know, healthy, healthier,

444
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 2: and he's in much better position, as I said to

445
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 2: the media the night, But if we get him anything

446
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 2: close to twenty twenty three, you know it was a

447
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 2: no brainer.

448
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

449
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 1: Uh didn't get a chance to ask you about Caden

450
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: Pray there who he mentioned. I saw his game against

451
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: USC Like I know it's him and Felton there were

452
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 1: the primary weapons. But I mean that quarterback trusted him

453
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 1: on third downs. They come back and win that game.

454
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: I think it was twenty nine to twenty eight. He

455
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: had like nine catches for over one hundred. What do

456
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: you like about him most?

457
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean really down there, you're you're going, all right,

458
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 2: how does this player make the team, And you're looking

459
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 2: at various positions and at that point you're looking at

460
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 2: a lot of guys with similar grades.

461
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 4: Where do you want to go?

462
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: We've done that with a you know, a Dane Jackson,

463
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 2: a balance specter, some guys that we have found there,

464
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 2: even in Alex Austin is play in the league, Like

465
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 2: the card reached really good.

466
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 4: And then we spent some time with him.

467
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 2: Ronald Curry went to work out him and Felton and

468
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 2: really liked his energy, liked his workout, and so when

469
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 2: you have those touch points, sometimes that's the tiebreaker. You

470
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 2: know what I'll put my name on this guy. He's big, long, fast,

471
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 2: and you feel like some of his stuff will translate.

472
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,239
Speaker 5: Just you know, maybe he could make it as that

473
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 5: last guy.

474
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 4: As a special teamer. It won't be an easy battle

475
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 4: in the receiver room, it won't. But if he can

476
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 4: prove on fourth down and prove a vertical enough.

477
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 2: Guy, a bigger, fast type specimen, uh, that's how he

478
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 2: makes this roster.

479
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: There are reports out there about a free agent visit. Yeah, uh,

480
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: you want to confirm you want.

481
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 4: To Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, Elijah Elijah Moore is here.

482
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 2: He's a guy we've spoken to a few times leading

483
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 2: up to the draft, and we just kind of put

484
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 2: a pin in it, just like we did several other

485
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 2: positions and said, hey, let's let's wait till the draft

486
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 2: and see where we're at, see if he's still interested after.

487
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 2: I mean, if we took a guy in the first

488
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,679
Speaker 2: or second round, he's probably not too interested. But we didn't,

489
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,360
Speaker 2: and so we you know, picked up picked up those

490
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 2: conversations over the weekend, and he and his wife came

491
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 2: up today and visited, and so we'll see. You know,

492
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 2: it's nothing, nothing imminent today anything like that, but a

493
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 2: very good visit and we'll we'll see where that goes.

494
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 3: Because stuff are you're not done? I mean, how many

495
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: roster spots have you got free? I mean, give us

496
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 3: some numbers on how many guys you really have to go.

497
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 3: I mean you can go to camp today, I guess.

498
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean we've we've got to believe eleven

499
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 2: or twelve, I can't remember the number of udfa's that

500
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 2: will come in.

501
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 4: We've got to make sure.

502
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 2: They pass the physical so it's it's agreed upon, but

503
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 2: we got to get them in here, get that signed

504
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 2: off on. That would be a week from this Thursday.

505
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 4: They would fly and do that.

506
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 2: So we're probably in the eighty seven eighty eight range

507
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 2: if those guys all, you know, everything gets to the

508
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 2: finish line there.

509
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 4: But we will have a rookie camp.

510
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 2: We've we've gotten guys out of there, the Kingsley Jonathan's

511
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 2: Buffalo Buffalo, Joe cam Lewis's uh So, JaMarcus Ingram, you know,

512
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: so we'll evaluate that we've invited a good number of

513
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 2: players that we want to get eyes on, and if

514
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 2: we feel like there's an upgrade there over somebody who's

515
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 2: currently on our roster, we could swap a guy out.

516
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 4: So right now it's we're working.

517
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 2: To build to that ninety that we want to take

518
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 2: to Saint John Fisher. And so the next month between

519
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 2: now and regular veteran in camp, we want to get

520
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 2: the best ninety that we can build that and have

521
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 2: our team ready to go and then show up and

522
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 2: start camp.

523
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 5: Nothing.

524
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 3: I don't want to put you on the spot, and

525
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 3: I won't ask you to mention any names. But every

526
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,959
Speaker 3: year and after post June one, how does that change

527
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 3: things like financially in the league year and with the contracts,

528
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 3: how does that explain to us that the big you know,

529
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 3: the boulders of what that means when you get past.

530
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 4: Junie, Yeah, I mean post June first.

531
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 2: There are some guys out there that they changed that

532
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 2: rule years ago where you can up to two post

533
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 2: June first one cuts. We did that with Trudeavius a

534
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 2: year ago to help you split. But there will actually

535
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 2: be some guys that teams drafted over or they.

536
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 4: Want to you know, move on from that at this point.

537
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 2: They'll wait till probably June first and do it. And

538
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 2: it just allows you to take half the hit now

539
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 2: and put the other half on next year. If you

540
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 2: want to categorize it, you know that way.

541
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 4: If not, you would want to release them before.

542
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 5: The last one.

543
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 3: Sometimes too on the last one for me, without mentioning

544
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 3: any names. Again, are you is it possible that you

545
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 3: might extend one of the guys you love and respect

546
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 3: here before the season starts.

547
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think we wouldn't close the door

548
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 2: on on on any of that. You know, nothing has

549
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 2: really transpired with any of our guys since we did

550
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 2: Christian Benford was the last guy.

551
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 4: It was at that point. It was, as I alluded

552
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 4: to it, the owners meetings, all eyes.

553
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 2: On this draft, right we got we got this arsenal.

554
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: We got to make the most of it.

555
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 4: We have time.

556
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 2: So again, I'm never closing the door. You know, we

557
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 2: don't have anything going, but I'm never closing the door

558
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: on that between I mean, we've done it all the

559
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 2: way up. I mean, I think we did Dawson Knox

560
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 2: on the day we were flying to play the Rams,

561
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 2: you know, that Wednesday.

562
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 4: Before we were flying up there.

563
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 2: So you know, again, I don't know that we will,

564
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 2: but I would never say we wouldn't. I just you know,

565
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: right now, well, we're going to build this roster out

566
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 2: my gut tells you says that would be more of

567
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 2: a summertime conversation than a spring conversation.

568
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: Well, Brandon, thanks for the time. We appreciate it. Good

569
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 1: luck working on your handicap now that you can breathe

570
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: a little bit.

571
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 4: I have nothing to do now right, Yeah, nothing at all?

572
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, see in July.

573
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: Appreciate the time as always. That's Bill's general manager Brandon Bean.

574
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll be asking you about your

575
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 1: biggest takeaways from Buffalo's twenty twenty five draft class. When

576
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: we return here on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health,

577
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:42,959
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right back here on one

578
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 1: Bill's Live. First Brown Steve Tasker with you on the

579
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: heels of the twenty twenty five NFL Draft. Bill's with

580
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: nine selections in tow, including three defensive linemen, two corners,

581
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: and a safety slot corner hybrid. But you let us

582
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 1: know what are your biggest takeaways for the bills twenty

583
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: five draft class. Our thanks again to general manager Brandon

584
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 1: Mean for stopping by. He's still tying up loose ends

585
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: and he's got meetings coming up here this afternoon. So

586
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: glad he was able to carve out a lot time for.

587
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 3: Us, and they're going to be another, like you said,

588
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 3: a dozen guys that they're going to sign over the

589
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 3: next week or so on draft as soon as they

590
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 3: get in here to.

591
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, they very big terms, but then they got to

592
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: pass physicals and sign the paperwork and then they'll be

593
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,879
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills at least for the majority of the offseason.

594
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 1: So you let us know what you thought of the

595
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: draft this past weekend. Eight oh three oh five point

596
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: fifty won eight and eight five fifty two five fifty

597
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: the numbers to jump on board. Got some open lines

598
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: for you there. But we begin who has been holding

599
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: the longest here. We begin with Joe in Williamsville. What's up, Joe?

600
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 10: Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call.

601
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:48,360
Speaker 1: Sure.

602
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 10: First of all, I was glued to the TV the

603
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 10: first night, and I was very pleased that the Bill's

604
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 10: got Maxwell Harriston, you know, because that was our biggest

605
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 10: need and uh. But I was especially paying attention and

606
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 10: to the end of the draft, and I was very

607
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 10: disappointed when the Bills selected Prayer. I believe his name

608
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 10: is the wide receiver with their last pick, because I

609
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 10: wanted them to take Sean Dolac, the linebacker from ub

610
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 10: and then I shortly after the draft, I googled him

611
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 10: Sean Dolac, and I found out that he was He

612
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 10: signed with the Rams. Yeah, And I was wondering, do

613
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 10: NFL teams can they offer undrafted free agents more money

614
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 10: than others? And is that why Dolac signed with the

615
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 10: Rams instead of the Bills or was it because he

616
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 10: thought he had a better chance of making the team. Anyway,

617
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 10: I'll hang up and I'll listen to you.

618
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 5: I can't speak.

619
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 3: For Sean Dolak, but I would say if he has

620
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 3: any representation, which I'm sure he does, they're saying, listen,

621
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 3: you have a better chance. I mean, you're not making

622
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 3: the Bills starting roster. I can't speak to the Rams either,

623
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:17,479
Speaker 3: but all of that goes into it. It's money, money, money,

624
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 3: and opportunity because you're not guaranteed. You're an undrafted rookie

625
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 3: free agent. Take the money, make the rest of it work,

626
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 3: figure out a way to make the teams for them.

627
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: There really aren't many more guarantees beyond that. And I've

628
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: been fortunate enough to sit in the draft room and

629
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: watch when the entire personnel department and coaching staff are

630
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 1: working phones to try to sign undrafted rookie free agents

631
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: after the draft is over. And yes, there is varying

632
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: bonus money, guaranteed bonus money when they sign the deal

633
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 1: and come to town as an undrafted rookie. From player

634
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: to player and team to team, there might be an

635
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: undrafted player at a position they did not fill in

636
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: the draft, and they on to pay more. They're willing

637
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 1: to pay more bonus money to land an undrafted rookie

638
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: who might be getting phone calls from four other teams. Now,

639
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: then there can be a bidding war for a priority

640
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 1: undrafted free agent. So that's part of the equation.

641
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 3: You'd be hard pressed to find a team that will

642
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 3: pay an undrafted rookie free agent more than they're paying

643
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 3: their seventh round draft pick, yeah or something like that. Now,

644
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 3: but they will pay more than this other team over here.

645
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: And to Steve's point about opportunity, if a player's agent

646
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: is worth his salt and he thinks that one of

647
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: his clients may go undrafted, that gives you the power

648
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: to then choose where to put that player and get

649
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: him signed as a priority free agent. And if you're

650
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: a linebacker. The Rams were a good place to go

651
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: because they lost their starting linebacker Christian Roseboom and free

652
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: agency who signed with Carolina. And then they lost one

653
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: of their young players who was a restricted free agent

654
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: that they did not tender a qualifying offer to. He

655
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: becomes a free agent and he goes and signs with Baltimore.

656
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: So they'll lost two linebackers in free agency. So the

657
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: numbers are down there for the Rams. So you enhance

658
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: your your chances because the numbers are fewer there, and

659
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: that's what they're probably combing through rosters doing before the

660
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: drafts even over.

661
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 3: Now here's the thing, here's what you're up against as well.

662
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 3: The Rams did take Josiah Stewart out of Michigan as.

663
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: A line he's a pass rusher though.

664
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 3: And then they've got Poop Paul Chris Paul right who

665
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 3: special team's demon, and that was they took him in

666
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 3: the fifth. So yeah, that all goes into it. You

667
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 3: pick your that's the beauty of being an undrafted rookie

668
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 3: free agent.

669
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 5: With the emphasis on free agent. You get to pick.

670
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 3: You can take less money over here because it's a

671
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 3: better opportunity, or more money over there because it is

672
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 3: and has a better opportunity both of those. All of

673
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 3: that goes into the mix. And it might be as

674
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 3: well that he had a better run up to the

675
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 3: draft relationship with the Rams than he did with say

676
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 3: the Seahawks or the Bucks or the same anst or

677
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 3: the Bills, or.

678
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: Might feel a skill set fits the scheme better, they

679
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: might give them a better chance of making the roster.

680
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, all that's on.

681
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 3: All that's in the stew that you got to figure out,

682
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 3: and it's and it's not easy.

683
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 5: Sometimes it's not easy.

684
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 3: Because everybody's both the team and the player and the agent.

685
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 3: They're all trying to spin things in their favor when

686
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 3: they when they interact, so it's not always accurate.

687
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: So Tom on the West Side next, what's up?

688
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 6: Tom Good?

689
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 7: Afternoon jumps. Uh. My biggest takeaway is I was surprised

690
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 7: by a few things. First Off, we didn't draft the safety. Second,

691
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 7: we didn't draft a running back. Now, by running back,

692
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 7: I'm assuming that they're looking to maybe extend Cook, but

693
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 7: at safety, I'm wondering if they feel like they got

694
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 7: a corner or multiple corners, they could slide back into

695
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 7: safety and play that position. Another one I thought of

696
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 7: is the tackle they drafted a tackle? Right?

697
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, yep?

698
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 7: Are they looking at him to be a swing tackle

699
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 7: or maybe a guard or even a center?

700
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: Yeah? I actually I actually asked Brandon that question Saturday

701
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 1: night after the draft was over, about Chase Lunt, the

702
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: Yukon tackle, because while he is six', eight his arms

703
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: are not even thirty three, inches which is a little

704
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 1: unusual for a player that, tall and some other. Teams

705
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: chase even sent it on the conference call with the

706
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: media here that some other teams that were looking at

707
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: him projected him to guard because his arms weren't thirty three.

708
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: Inches But brandon said to, us he's going to start

709
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:50,239
Speaker 1: at tackle and that's where he'll. Be so there's no

710
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: thought of moving him right. Now and when you think

711
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 1: about all the depth that The bills, have just put

712
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: him in a spot that he's. Comfortable and then he,

713
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,719
Speaker 1: said coach a cross trains everybody, Anyway so he'll probably

714
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: line up in multiple, positions but they'll probably start him

715
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: at tackle while he gets his feet wet in rookie mini.

716
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: Camp because you Have Travis, clayton the international player who

717
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: was ON irrol last, year where does he play at

718
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 1: six seven three oh. Five is he a tackle or

719
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: is he a? Guard you Have Tyland grabil who was

720
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: the swing tackle as a rookie last. Year you still

721
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: Have Ryan vandermark on the, Roster Alec, Anderson cedric Van Peng.

722
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: GRANGER i, mean it's an embarrassment of riches on the offensive,

723
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 1: line it really. Is so they'll have their pick of

724
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: the litter as to where they. Go and we just

725
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,720
Speaker 1: Heard Brandon bean Say Jordan hancock is a safety slash,

726
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: nickel so he's he could play outside corner if you

727
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 1: needed him. To BUT i think they have other plans

728
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: for him from a position flex standpoint in the second.

729
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 5: TIME i, WOULD i, would AND i.

730
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 3: Shouldn't BUT i, assume with all with What brownie said

731
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 3: about the way the offensive line and the way the

732
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 3: roster sits, now when they got to where they Pick,

733
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 3: lunt he was way above everybody else on their, board

734
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 3: they just.

735
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 5: Couldn't they couldn't afford not to.

736
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 3: Take the career starter atask got all this, Stuff he's

737
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 3: got all these intangibles and all. That plus with even

738
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 3: if he does move down to, guard it's easier to

739
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 3: move from tackle to guard because there's just less space

740
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 3: and for a guy's six 's eight three plus, bills

741
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 3: it's easy to fill that space up so he can.

742
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,800
Speaker 3: Play He'll the projection is he'll it'll be easy for

743
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 3: him to play. Guard so they know they're gonna get

744
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 3: a guy that could compete at a at two different. Positions,

745
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 3: PLUS i really think when they got down to that

746
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 3: part of the, draft they're like, going oh my, gosh this.

747
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 3: Guy we had this guy two rounds higher or something like,

748
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 3: that so we'll.

749
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: See and then as far as running back and not taking,

750
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: ONE i think even though some of you, think, oh

751
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 1: this might Be James cook last year on the roster

752
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: if he doesn't sign an, extension you gotta remember he

753
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: is going to be on the roster this. Year you need,

754
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: him so you got. Him Ty johnson's, resigned you, know

755
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: and then you've Got Ray davis still on the. Roster

756
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: those are your three, backs and Then Reggie gilliam is

757
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: your fullback who was used more IN i formations in

758
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,720
Speaker 1: the final quarter of the season last. YEAR i expect

759
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: that to continue this. Year he's gonna have a. Role

760
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 1: plus he's a special team. Stalwart so that's four right,

761
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,720
Speaker 1: there and you Have Frank gorer on the practice squad

762
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,479
Speaker 1: And Darrenton evans is on this roster again for the third,

763
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: offseason SO i think they feel pretty set. There don't

764
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:22,800
Speaker 1: get me. Wrong if there was the right value on the,

765
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 1: board they would have taken a running. Back but don't

766
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: think that they exactly have room for another one right.

767
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: Now that's the Point i'm. Making so for what it's,

768
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,280
Speaker 1: worth let's go To mike And BATAVIAN.

769
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 10: X what's Up, Mike, hey good, afternoon.

770
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 6: Guys well, Listen i'm just really. EXCITED i called in On,

771
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 6: thursday AND i know you guys get a lot of,

772
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,720
Speaker 6: calls and i'd expect you remember about WHAT i said

773
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 6: was THAT i was hoping to get two, cornerbacks a

774
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 6: three hundred and twenty pounds plus defensive, lineman and an

775
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 6: edge rusher in the first four. Picks SO i just

776
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 6: am a. Static and the one that really put it

777
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 6: over the top for me was when they came back

778
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 6: and trade back up to Get Dean. Walker you, KNOW

804
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 3: It, yeah it's that you know we're in the honeymoon.

805
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:27,359
Speaker 5: Phase you, Know well that's.

806
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 1: Right But i'll tell you right. Now WHEN i was

807
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: on With Mattie friday night with our instant reaction after

808
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 1: The day two, PICKS i was amped About Landon. Jackson

809
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,280
Speaker 1: he's my favorite picking the draft for this entire draft

810
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 1: class BECAUSE i think he is going to make a

811
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 1: difference off the. Edge and maybe not right away Because

812
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,359
Speaker 1: bosa is going to be on the field for most

813
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: of the pass rush snaps With Greg russau, presumably but

814
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: this guy can be your base end on rundowns and

815
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: that affords you the opportunity to Pace bosa through a.

816
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,320
Speaker 1: Season you, know the concern About bosa is can he

817
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: get through a seventeen game season without getting? Hurt, well

818
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 1: if he's only playing thirty five snaps a, game.

819
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 5: Got a chance at.

820
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: It your chance is. Good, yeah and premium. Snaps if

821
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,880
Speaker 1: it's thirty five a, week you, know for seventeen weeks

822
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 1: and you know you got it. Again an embarrassment of.

823
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 1: Riches now on the defensive, front you know you're not

824
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: gonna be With Michael hoyt for six. Weeks you're not

825
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: gonna Have Larry ogunjobi for six. Weeks you don't even

826
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: have to worry about it now because you Got land

827
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 1: And jackson to help you on the edge with Aj

828
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: fanesa And russeau And, bosa and then inside you've Got

829
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: walker And sanders now to pair With Ed oliver And

830
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:37,319

831
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 1: the first six. WEEKS i, Mean i'm telling, You, steve

832
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 1: these first three picks instant. Impact they are going to

833
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: play right out of the. Shoot you rotate so much

834
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: upfront as.

835
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 3: It, is it really feels like a rare because we

836
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 3: always talk about where we, think, wow we had to

837
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:53,439
Speaker 3: do this and how to do that in the first

838
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 3: three picks of the, draft because this guy came available

839
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 3: and we had a trade to. You it really feels

840
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 3: like it's one of the rare times and maybe the

841
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 3: only TIME i can remember, WHERE i, mean we were

842
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 3: sitting here last, week brand is saying they got to

843
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:08,840

Speaker 3: they they took two corners and THREE d linemen in

845
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 3: the first five, picks and it just And i've told you,

846
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,960

00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: Good and that's WHY i Asked, brandon, like can you

850
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 1: remember a draft where lined up your perceived positional needs

851
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 1: lined up so well with the class that you had

852
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: to choose. From And he's, LIKE i don't know IF i,

853
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: can but, Yeah i'm telling, you like it worked out

854
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,280
Speaker 1: extremely well if the board fell very favorably For buffalo

855
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: in terms of what we felt were their primary positional

856
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:49,480

859
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 3: This you, know it's awful hard because last year we

860
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,000

861
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,920

Speaker 3: to remember they all got. DRAFTED i mean all got

866
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 3: mocked in the first round at one point or, another

867
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 3: And i'm, so who knows what the future hold. ON

00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: in round.

888
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,759

911
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 12: know much about a lot of these college, players AND

912
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:51,879
Speaker 12: i just feel that as a as an, organization when

913
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 12: you see the players that they, draft and you see

914
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 12: the reaction of the players and then they. COME i

915
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,319
Speaker 12: watch some of them when they come and you can

916
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 12: watch it on YouTube when they come for a, visit

917
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 12: and you, know some are bringing family members and the

918
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 12: reception that they get and when they see what is

919
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 12: available in terms of you, know the training, facilities all

920
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 12: the people there on draft. Day when you look at

921
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 12: the number of people in the room that are part

922
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 12: of making those, decisions you really see how much has

923
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 12: been invested by by the, ownership by the coach and

924
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 12: the general. Manager AND i find it ironic sometimes WHEN

925
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 12: i listen to people when they have all the they

926
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 12: think they have all the answers as far as What

927
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 12: Brandon bean should be doing or not, doing, uh you,

928
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 12: know instead of instead of counting the number of players

929
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:59,839
Speaker 12: that have come in uh you, know uh uh what's

930
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 12: the name the kids From. Villanova now my brain is, going, yes,

931
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 12: yes that they come in in those late rounds and

932
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,879
Speaker 12: what the organization has been able to make of them

933
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 12: and advance their careers instead of always going back to Tire.

940
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 12: the writer was talking that this guy could be the

941
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 12: steal of the draft because of what he can. Do

942
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:45,000

957
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: Problem, yeah They're they're an organization that does things the right,

958
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: way and they look to draft people to do things

959
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: the right way all the, time not just some of the.

960
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: Time they they tend to lean lean in heavy to

961
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: players whose character they have a good feel for based

962
00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: on the time they've spent with, him whether it's on

963
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 1: a draft visit, here going out to their campus and

964
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 1: working them out and spending a day with, them meeting

965
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,399
Speaker 1: them at The Senior, bowl, combine et. Cetera they want

966
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 1: to know that the players they, get they're gonna get

967
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 1: the same effort and dedication to their craft in week

968
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: two on A wednesday as they're gonna get in week

969
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: eighteen on A. Thursday and they don't have to ask

970
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: and wonder on A sunday what they're gonna get from

971
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 1: them because they already, know because they know who they

972
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:27,800
Speaker 1: are as much as what they are as a.

973
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 3: Player, yeah they and they put, it and most teams

974
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 3: will tell you they do the same. Thing but where

975
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 3: you get differences there where one team prioritizes a little

976
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,440
Speaker 3: higher on the list of gotta halves than other teams

977
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,800
Speaker 3: put it on their list of gotta. Haves some teams

978
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 3: don't put that as a gotta, half so all of

979
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 3: that goes into, it AND i would agree with, you

980
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,399
Speaker 3: it's a much different atmosphere here At One Bill's drive

981
00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 3: than it has been in decades. Past at, times one

982
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 3: of the things the club ran into with there was

983
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,759
Speaker 3: a real problem during the. Drought if you, know for this,

984
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 3: generation there was a long for this generation Of New bills,

985
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 3: fans there was a seventeen year spotted there where we

986
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 3: couldn't get to the playoffs during that. Time one of

987
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 3: the things this team ran into was that they had

988
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 3: an owner that was an old, Guy. Ralph we loved.

989
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 3: Him he was a sweetheart of a. Guy but to

990
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,719
Speaker 3: get top quality executives to come work for the team

991
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 3: was an issue because they didn't know how long the

992
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 3: owner would be the. Owner that's not the. Problem now

993
00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 3: they've got a stable. Ownership they've got a guy who

994
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 3: knows how to run a good business and handle the,

995
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:44,839
Speaker 3: people hire and fire and do all. That terry has

996
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 3: been outstanding and the guys he got he, trusts and

997
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 3: he he hold him, accountable but he lets him do their.

998
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 3: Job we've seen some owners in the past that don't do.

999
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,240
Speaker 3: That it starts from the top.

1000
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 5: Down terry And kim.

1001
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 3: Gave sean And brandon everything they asked for to be,

1002
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:07,040

1005
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:18,479

Speaker 3: are an elite franchise doing things the right. Way and

1009
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:30,800

1014

Speaker 4: Department.

1059
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 1: Rashah they have a personnel department that's probably bigger than

1060
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: their coaching staff because they have to canvass the country

1061
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 1: and identify the best players in the draft, class and

1062
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:44,880
Speaker 1: not just for who will be the best players in the,

1063
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: league but more specifically who are the best prospects for

1064
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 1: The bills and the scheme they play on offense or,

1065
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:55,280
Speaker 1: defense and the positions they have to. Fill and they'll

1066
00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: get started on next year's draft in about a month

1067
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,880
Speaker 1: and a. Half they'll send The blessedo scouts off to

1068
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 1: do advanced scouting and Identify they'll have a list of

1069
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 1: probably about one hundred and fifty players that they want

1070
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: to identify right off the. Rip when they send their

1071
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 1: scouts back out In august to start scouting college practice,

1072
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:19,080
Speaker 1: fields games and. Tape it is a year round effort

1073
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 1: and you need an army to do it.

00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,399
Speaker 5: EFFECTIVELY a lot of them don't live.

1075

1171
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:56,160

1181
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,440

1182
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 11: before the, draft you come out saying he needs twenty.

1183
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:40,280
Speaker 11: Million you, know this is nothing like WHAT i would

1184
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 11: Think jimbo would be saying, himself or if, HE i

00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:53,720
Speaker 11: could let me know since we didn't get a running,

1188
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 11: back if everything goes south with the way you, know

1189
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:03,040
Speaker 11: with it the way it's, going you, know With delvin

1190
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 11: running his mouth and tampering with the whole, thing which

1191
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 11: is the WAY i look at. It this does not

1192
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:15,440
Speaker 11: seem Like James cook talking at. All and just before

1193
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 11: the draft is the worst, time you, know to be

1194
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:23,080
Speaker 11: pulling this type of. Shenanigans the WAY i look at

1195
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 11: it With, bean this guy has run everything every. Year you,

1196
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:30,040
Speaker 11: know he had his checkboxes and he's gone. Down he's

1197
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 11: re signed everybody before the draft on the, checkbook you,

1198
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:36,440
Speaker 11: know on the well, yeah literally on the draft to

1199
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 11: the checkboxes is WHAT i. Meant but what do you

1200
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 11: guys think of what are our? Options AND i know

1201
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,320
Speaker 11: what we're talking, draft but we didn't get a running.

1202
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 11: Back what if things go south and we don't have

1203
00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:54,560
Speaker 11: a guy? There there's nobody REALLY i looked AT.

1204
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 1: I don't think you have to worry about, It, Glenn

1205
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 1: And i'll tell you. WHY i think the main reason

1206
00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:02,920
Speaker 1: Is James cook is in the last year of his

1207
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 1: rookie contract and if he does not sign an extension

1208
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,960
Speaker 1: before training camp or the regular. Season sitting out is

1209
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 1: not the way to increase his. Value he has to

1210
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: show up and show out and then worry about getting

1211
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,080
Speaker 1: paid next. Year and the beautiful thing for him next

1212
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 1: year is if he has a big, season he's either

1213
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 1: going to go to free agency and make big money

1214
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:30,040
Speaker 1: with thirty two teams bidding on his, services or The

1215
01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: bills are going to franchise tag him if they can't

1216
01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:33,880
Speaker 1: get him signed to an, extension and he's going to

1217
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 1: make top of the market money at the running back.

1218
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,200
Speaker 1: Position but he's got to play to get. It The

1219
01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 1: bills know, it and he knows, it so that's why they. Didn't,

1220
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 1: really it wasn't imperative for them to draft a running.

1221
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:45,600
Speaker 3: Here And glenn don't worry about what his Brother dalvin's,

1222
01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 3: doing or any the social media posts and liking and

1223
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 3: disliking and scrubbing Your instagram or. Whatever, Nothing none of it.

1224
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:59,520
Speaker 3: Matters none of it, matters because ultimately they got to

1225
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 3: sit down across the table and, Yes James cook does

1226
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 3: have an, agent uh that agent will sit down across

1227
01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 3: the table With Brandon bean and that's what. Matters that's what.

1228
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 3: Matters none of the posturing and the social media posts

1229
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:18,920
Speaker 3: and his brother yelling and screaming and throwing out big,

1230
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 3: numbers and none of it. Matters none of it because

1231
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,520
Speaker 3: ultimately it comes down to a conversation between Between Brandon

1232
01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:26,439
Speaker 3: bean And James cook.

1233
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 5: Representation that's.

1237
01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 8: watch the an active list once the season starts on

1238
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:43,840
Speaker 8: defensive the defensive, line and When hoyt and Ogn joeby come,

1239
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:47,360
Speaker 8: back it's going to get really tight those. GUYS i

1240
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:51,240
Speaker 8: think the message was the pre existing group has to

1241
01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 8: have their stuff Together monday Through, saturday, right Don't it's

1242
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 8: it's gonna there's there's gonna be some wild names on

1243
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 8: the inactive.

1244
01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 1: List, Yeah, yeah it's a good.

1245
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 5: Point.

1246
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:07,080
Speaker 1: Yeah AND i wouldn't rule out we get to the

1247
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 1: start of the regular season and if this team's, HEALTHY

1248
01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 1: i wouldn't rule out In august trade because there's gonna

1249
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 1: be players that are not going to make this roster

1250
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 1: who are roster worthy in THE. Nfl, Yeah And Brandon

1251
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 1: bean detests moving those players off this roster without getting

1252
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 1: some type of commodity in. RETURN i think this roster

1253
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 1: is so deep now on the offensive and defensive lines

1254
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 1: that Come, august provided you don't suffer a rash of,

1255
01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 1: injuries you're relatively. Healthy getting this roster down to fifty

1256
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:44,720
Speaker 1: three for offensive and defensive, line they're gonna have to

1257
01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 1: probably move somebody and get you, know some draft pick

1258
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 1: in the future back as, compensation because it's an embarrassment of. Riches,

1259
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 1: now as far As i'm concerned with with the old

1260
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 1: line and d line depth is.

1261
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 3: Well you certainly well it may be an embarrassment of.

1262
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 3: Riches and that's when you transpose you, KNOW. Tj, Sanders Landon,

1263
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:07,480
Speaker 3: jackson And Dion walker into the finger quote starting. LINEUP

1264
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 3: i mean then, yeah then you're moving everybody down a.

1265
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 3: NOTCH i doubt that it'll be that. Clean don't forget

1266
01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 3: they need THEY i think they went with ten last. Year,

1267
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 3: Right if they do that, again and.

1268
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:22,920
Speaker 1: They would dress nine, sometimes.

1269
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:25,680
Speaker 3: Right if they do that, again the problem takes care of.

1270
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:30,680
Speaker 3: Itself but you're you, know it'll be The Javon solomon's

01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:55,840

1294
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:52,240
Speaker 15: the REASON i, called as far as the draft, GOES

1295
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 15: i love the fact That brandon didn't overthink. It and

1296
01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:57,200
Speaker 15: WHAT i mean by that is he knew what the

1297
01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,920
Speaker 15: needs were and he went and got the best available

1298
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:03,600
Speaker 15: players at those. Positions and it looks now like he

1299
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:07,080
Speaker 15: got some really really good players and didn't compromise at

1300
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:10,360
Speaker 15: all in order to do. THAT i did hear some

1301
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,960
Speaker 15: talk over the weekend About Ogan, jobie AND i just

1302
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:15,800
Speaker 15: wanted to ask you guys a question about, that that

1303
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 15: he may not even make it through camp or. Whatever

1304
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:21,960
Speaker 15: AND i know you're talking about trades, now BUT i

1305
01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:24,400
Speaker 15: was wondering if you guys could enlighten me on if

1306
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:29,600
Speaker 15: they did release him before the, season what the financials

1307
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:30,080
Speaker 15: it would?

1308
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 16: Be number?

1309
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:34,160
Speaker 15: One and number, two what are the options to do

1310
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,840
Speaker 15: with him if they feel he's not even in the

1311
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:41,240
Speaker 15: top six when camp's. Over as far and then, lastly

1312
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,880
Speaker 15: as far as the tackle they drafted in the sixth,

1313
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,320
Speaker 15: ROUND i just wanted to bring up. That WHEN i

1314
01:05:46,320 --> 01:05:50,040
Speaker 15: was watching the draft ON, espn Both Lewis riddick and

1315
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:53,560
Speaker 15: Mel kiper pointed out that this, kid they made a

1316
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 15: point to, say this kid's got talent and that when

1317
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:01,280
Speaker 15: he's coached up by The. Bills they didn't use the

1318
01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:04,240
Speaker 15: term that he could maybe make the team or that

1319
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,880
Speaker 15: he could be. Good they said they called him a possible,

1320
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,280
Speaker 15: gem that this kid could be that. Good AND i

1321
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 15: was curious if you guys have any more detail about.

1322
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:16,680
Speaker 15: Him SO i was just curious about all that kind of.

1323
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 15: Stuff so and then as far as The cook, situation real,

1324
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,680

01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,160
Speaker 1: to let him, go but he wanted. To i'm. Sorry

1328
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:33,280
Speaker 1: mark didn't mean to do.

1329
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 5: That don't hold it against.

1330
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:37,400
Speaker 1: Us you can blame. ME i had a little trigger

1331
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:41,320
Speaker 1: trigger finger. There so The cook, situation, LOOK i don't,

1332
01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 1: again just to quickly, REITERATE i don't really have to

1333
01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 1: worry about. It as far As Chase lund, goes he's

1334
01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:52,560
Speaker 1: he's a tackle by, trade three year starter At, yukon

1335
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:55,880
Speaker 1: actually had one year of overlap Where vandermark was the

1336
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,720
Speaker 1: left tackle and he was the right. Tackle he's a

1337
01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:01,200
Speaker 1: former teammate Of Ryan vandermark's and we we can see

1338
01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:04,560
Speaker 1: How vandermark has developed here under Coach. Cromer SO i

1339
01:07:04,560 --> 01:07:07,880
Speaker 1: would expect the same For Chase. Lunt the thing is

1340
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:11,920
Speaker 1: you're loaded at. Tackle you Got dawkins And, brown and

1341
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:14,360
Speaker 1: then you Got Tyland, grable last year's sixth round pick

1342
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:17,960
Speaker 1: who won the swing tackle job Over Ryan. Vandermark last,

1343
01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:21,840
Speaker 1: Year vandermark was the team's fourth. Tackle and now you're

1344
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:24,160
Speaker 1: Adding Chase lun to the, mix and you still Have Travis,

1345
01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:28,080
Speaker 1: clayton the international pathway player who's listed as an offensive.

1346
01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:34,520
Speaker 1: Tackle SO i mean that's six, Tackles so it's it's

1347
01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a tough roster to. Crack AND i like his.

1348
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:41,360
Speaker 1: Tape he moves really well for a man that. Tall

1349
01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 1: he's not rigid or, stiff so he can slide and.

1350
01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:50,040
Speaker 1: Mirror it's he's got some impressive traits for a late

1351
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,320
Speaker 1: round draft. Choice there are tools to work. WITH i,

1352
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 1: guess for lack of a better, TERM i, Mean i'm

1353
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:57,120
Speaker 1: watching him climb to the second level and hinge to

1354
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,640
Speaker 1: seal the. GAP i, mean that's that's pretty good for

1355
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:00,320
Speaker 1: a six eight.

1356
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:01,800
Speaker 4: Guy and he.

1357
01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: Plays with a little attitude, Too so there's a lot

1358
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:06,320
Speaker 1: to like about, him and no One kromer is going

1359
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:08,640
Speaker 1: to get his hands on. Him you only expect him

1360
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:08,919
Speaker 1: to get.

1361
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:14,040
Speaker 3: Better, yeah and as far As Ogan joby's cap, hit

1362
01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 3: he only got eight hundreds a one year.

1363
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,479
Speaker 5: Deal, yeah it's a one year.

1364
01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:21,640
Speaker 1: Deal he's originally an eight point three million dollar. Contract

1365
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,680
Speaker 1: and THEN i think after he informed The bills that

1366
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 1: he was going to be getting a six game, SUSPENSION

1367
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:28,960
Speaker 1: i think the term's got amended a. Bit to what,

1368
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 1: DEGREE i don't, know but it's a one year. Deal so,

1369
01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:36,720
Speaker 1: YEAH i, mean, you outside of the bonus money that

1370
01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:39,200
Speaker 1: he signed, for if there is any you clip him

1371
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:41,960
Speaker 1: and it's no skin off your nose if you do

1372

Speaker 9: this may actually be a real blessing for, us because

1378
01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:02,559
Speaker 9: BASICALLY i think The bills will go through turning camp

1379
01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:07,120
Speaker 9: and pick their starters and then run through people Like

1380

Speaker 9: able to play a full, season but really Around game,

1382
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:16,559
Speaker 9: six we bring out a new set of. Starters basically

1383
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 9: a starter level of, talent And i'm just really looking

1384
01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 9: forward to seeing how they developed this team because we just,

1385
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 9: have you, know nominally A PLAN a and A PLAN,

1386
01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:27,639
Speaker 9: b but Even planned c's with you, know a lot

1387
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 9: of positions where guys could be starters and other, teams

1388
01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:32,680
Speaker 9: and they're going to be sitting on our. Roster SO

1389
01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:35,280
Speaker 9: i love the guys being suspended now because we have

1390
01:09:35,760 --> 01:09:36,439
Speaker 9: time to make all this.

1391
01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,360
Speaker 3: Work, yeah and it extends the preseason for some of the young,

1392
01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:40,000
Speaker 3: players that's for.

1393
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:40,479
Speaker 5: Sure they.

1394
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 3: Can it gives them two roster spots for guys that

1395
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:46,799
Speaker 3: can come in and kind of find their sea, legs

1396
01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:48,400
Speaker 3: and then you see what you've got at the end

1397
01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 3: of this first month and a. Half, yeah it's you're,

1398
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:51,240
Speaker 3: right it's a good.

1399
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,280
Speaker 1: Point it's a it's kind of like a hidden benefit

1400
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:57,400
Speaker 1: or a silver lining to what we all thought was a.

1401
01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:00,840
Speaker 1: Negative but with all the depth they've, accumulated may actually work.

1402
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 1: Out To judy In, buffalo what's, Up, Judy, well you, Know.

1403
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:09,200
Speaker 17: I've been the proponent for years to Get Jack allen

1404
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:12,960
Speaker 17: as much talent as they can on the. OFFENSE i,

1405
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 17: agree this year there was nobody to be, had So

1406
01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:19,360
Speaker 17: i'm happy with The bills that they build up their

1407
01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:22,760
Speaker 17: defense and if they have a brutal schedule this, year

1408
01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:26,160
Speaker 17: if they can hold their defense with the prospects they

1409
01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:29,479
Speaker 17: had that twenty points are, LEFT i will be very

1410
01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 17: happy Because Jack, allen even with the limited availabilities that he,

1411
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 17: has he can. Skill they can still score thirty points are,

1412
01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 17: left and So I'm Conkad Coleman. Samuel i'm looking for

1413
01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:48,439
Speaker 17: them to make a big improvement this.

1414
01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:52,759
Speaker 1: Year, YEAH i think that's certainly the. Hope Judy, coleman

1415
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,680
Speaker 1: with a year of, experience comes in and takes on

1416
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:58,280
Speaker 1: a larger. Role Curtis, SAMUEL i think it was just

1417
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 1: a matter of health more than anything. Else as he

1418
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:03,120
Speaker 1: got healthy down the, stretch he actually made some big

1419
01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,719
Speaker 1: plays for this, team had that huge touchdown Against Kansas

1420
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,320
Speaker 1: city In week, eleven and later in the season was

1421
01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:11,680
Speaker 1: more of a factor in the passing game because he

1422
01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:14,120
Speaker 1: was finally healthy again dealing with turf tow and then

1423
01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:16,920
Speaker 1: a shoulder and really was playing hurt for most of the.

1424
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:19,599
Speaker 1: Year so hopefully he can come into the season healthy

1425
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 1: and stay that, way AND i think he'll make much

1426
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:25,960
Speaker 1: larger contributions and it'll be interesting to see What Joshua

1427
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,479
Speaker 1: palmer has to offer this receiving corps as the big new.

1428
01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:32,360
Speaker 3: Addition don't sleep On Josh. Palmer he's he's a really good.

1429
01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:35,160
Speaker 3: Player he's much More he's a much more proven wide

1430
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:41,519
Speaker 3: receiver commodity than then last year at this point that

1431
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,120
Speaker 3: they had at this point last, Year Mac collins was,

1432
01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:46,320
Speaker 3: good but this guy's more proven Than mack was coming.

1433
01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:50,439
Speaker 3: IN i Think Josh palmer's going to be a HUGE

1434
01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:53,360
Speaker 3: i think he gives you more Than Amari cooper And

1435
01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:57,080
Speaker 3: Mac collins did last, year ability, wise youth, wise that

1436
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 3: kind of, stuff production. WISE i think he's a really good.

1437
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 3: Player that's one. Thing the other thing, is you're, Right

1438
01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:14,320
Speaker 3: samuel And coleman need to step. Up, samuel you, know

1439
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:16,840
Speaker 3: you kind of raise your eyebrows like he's he's not

1440
01:12:16,840 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 3: getting any younger and if he can't stay healthy last,

1441
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,760
Speaker 3: year is there any. Guarantees there's no guarantees for any of.

1442
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:23,720
Speaker 3: This but you look at the way they ran the

1443
01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:27,759
Speaker 3: offense last. Year not only did they get an enormous

1444
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 3: amount of production across the board from, EVERYBODY i, mean

1445
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 3: the offense was it was a wagon and it's still

1446
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:36,320
Speaker 3: gonna be a. Wagon but they also did it in

1447
01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:41,559
Speaker 3: the midst of chronic. Injuries everybody was going down at

1448
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:45,920
Speaker 3: one point Another coleman was, Down kincaid was, Down sanders

1449
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:50,080
Speaker 3: was never. Healthy cooper came to the table and he's

1450
01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:53,360
Speaker 3: got a busted. Wrist all of that stuff was going.

1451
01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:55,639
Speaker 3: On they didn't have anybody that was one hundred percent

1452
01:12:55,640 --> 01:13:01,360
Speaker 3: Except khalil And knocks And cook And James cook And,

1453
01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:03,599
Speaker 3: hey when they spread it around to those three, guys

1454
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:05,360
Speaker 3: you could ride that horse as long as you want to.

1455
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,559
Speaker 3: See they were scoring thirty points a, game every, game

1456
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 3: and it didn't end until they scored forty two in

1457
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:12,479
Speaker 3: a loss IN la and then the week later forty

1458
01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:15,960
Speaker 3: eight Against detroit in a, win both on the. Road

1459
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:20,040
Speaker 3: they were absolutely crushing. People they were and that's one

1460
01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,280
Speaker 3: of the reasons why this defense. Thrived in the Turnover

1461
01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:25,240
Speaker 3: MARK i said this a week or two. Ago the

1462
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:28,800
Speaker 3: reason The bills offense and defense exists so well together

1463
01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:30,840
Speaker 3: is because Of josh and this offense and all these

1464
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:34,080
Speaker 3: note these finger quote no names from last. Year they

1465
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:38,320
Speaker 3: were hammering it on that side of the, ball and

1466
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,200
Speaker 3: the other team is over there going. Now we don't

1467
01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 3: have we can't hit we can't turn around and hand it.

1468
01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 3: Off we gotta throw. It we, gotta, dude we gotta

1469
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:50,000
Speaker 3: keep up with those. Guys we're, Right We're we've got

1470
01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:54,479
Speaker 3: a rented mule and a rickshaw trying to keep up with.

1471
01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:57,760
Speaker 5: A ferrari and A formula one. Car we can't do,

1472
01:13:57,880 --> 01:13:58,559
Speaker 5: it so we.

1473
01:13:58,600 --> 01:13:59,599
Speaker 1: Gotta we gotta sling.

1474
01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 3: It so the defense is getting turnovers and all, that

1475
01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:04,720
Speaker 3: and then and it's a great. Recipe they can do.

1476
01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 3: It SO i don't they're gonna do the same thing this.

1477
01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 3: Year they're they're a wagon on, offense and if their

1478
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:17,000
Speaker 3: defense can take advantage of and do the same thing

1479
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:20,280
Speaker 3: when they they're constantly facing an offense that is under

1480
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:25,080
Speaker 3: pressure to keep up and score points, constantly and that

1481
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:27,760
Speaker 3: plays into the hands of a little bit. MORE i

1482
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:30,080
Speaker 3: think this, year into the hands of the way this

1483
01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:30,800
Speaker 3: defense is.

1484
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:33,839
Speaker 1: Constructed and that's why you drafted a pass rushing defensive

1485
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,400
Speaker 1: end and the two defensive tackles who can pass rush

1486
01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 1: from the, inside.

1487
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 5: And three corners three three.

1488
01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:43,960
Speaker 3: Corners you Got Christian benford who is now is verging on,

1489
01:14:44,040 --> 01:14:47,200
Speaker 3: elite and you got this young guy And Max, harriston

1490
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 3: who is A i, mean he's A Dart he's a,

1491
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:54,920
Speaker 3: blur and So I'M i think this defense this, YEAR

1492
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 3: i think they're leaning into what they know they have

1493
01:14:58,720 --> 01:15:01,800
Speaker 3: at the quarterback spot and the offensive line, spot and

1494
01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,200
Speaker 3: their ability to hang on to the football and dictate

1495
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:06,559
Speaker 3: on that side of the. Ball they're leaning into it

1496
01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:08,519
Speaker 3: on the defensive side a little bit in their roster.

1497
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:11,720
Speaker 3: Construction we'll see if it. Works it looks good to

1498
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:14,840
Speaker 3: me at this, point but you know there's thirty one

1499
01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 3: other teams who think it looked pretty good to them.

01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:02,800
Speaker 19: the fan. Base you, know everybody needs to just take

1515
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:05,519
Speaker 19: a step back and realize where we were fifteen years

1516
01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:07,800
Speaker 19: ago and what we all went through in the drought,

1517
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:15,639
Speaker 19: years and just take a deep, breath you. Know but besides,

1518
01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:19,479
Speaker 19: THAT i think everybody also needs to realize the future

1519
01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:21,519
Speaker 19: and what they're trying to do with this. OFFENSE i

1520
01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:26,240
Speaker 19: think THEY i think everybody needs to realize that they

1521
01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:29,479
Speaker 19: are trying to go to A brady like short distance

1522
01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 19: thinking dunk pass That brady tortured us for years. WITH

1523
01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 19: i think every chance that they, GET i think they're

1524
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:40,120
Speaker 19: trying to inch towards that. IDEAL i think that's what

1525
01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:40,719
Speaker 19: they're trying.

1526
01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:40,960
Speaker 6: To do for the.

1527
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:44,280
Speaker 19: Future but my question to you guys was when those

1528
01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:48,080
Speaker 19: suspensions for those d line guys go, out the rookies

1529
01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:52,439
Speaker 19: that we just, drafted is there a third option instead

1530
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:55,479
Speaker 19: of the trade or cut of putting rookies on the

1531
01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:58,360
Speaker 19: protected practice squad at that point of the. Season.

1532
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:02,559
Speaker 1: YEAH i mean you can put players on the practice

1533
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:06,680
Speaker 1: squad and you can protect up to FOUR i know

1534
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,960
Speaker 1: that's a. FACT i think it changed from three to,

1535
01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:13,439
Speaker 1: four So i'll have to double check BECAUSE i didn't

1536
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,439
Speaker 1: commit it to, memory BUT i believe you can protect

1537
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:19,360
Speaker 1: four players on your practice. Squad so if you wanted

1538
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:22,080
Speaker 1: to do, THAT i suppose you, could BUT i think

1539
01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:25,680
Speaker 1: that's a dangerous game you're. Playing The bills have not

1540
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:28,360
Speaker 1: had all their draft picks make the roster, before and

1541
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 1: they've had some poached off the practice squad get.

1542
01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:35,400
Speaker 3: Nicked other teams take advantage of The bill's ability to

1543
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:37,479
Speaker 3: get good players deep in the draft and they just

1544
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:39,599
Speaker 3: pluck them off their practice squad when they can't protect

1545
01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 3: all of.

1546
01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:41,679
Speaker 1: Them New england's got one of them on their roster.

1547
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:43,240
Speaker 1: Now as a matter of, fact he made a handful

1548
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 1: of starts last. Year Alex austin the corner From Oregon.

1549
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:46,759
Speaker 1: State two years, Ago.

1550
01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:49,320
Speaker 3: Alex austin couldn't make The bills roster and now he's

1551
01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:50,519
Speaker 3: starting for another.

1552
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:52,720
Speaker 5: Team, yeah that's all you gotta. Know that's.

1553
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:57,760
Speaker 3: Why and and it keeps a competitive balance you can,

1554
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:01,360
Speaker 3: see because you you know what team can't hoard guys

1555
01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:04,040
Speaker 3: and keep And austin as a.

1556
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:05,120
Speaker 5: Great, example he wants to.

1557
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:08,960
Speaker 3: Play, yeah so for him and the Players union will, say,

1558
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:10,320
Speaker 3: listen you got to give these guys a chance to

1559
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:11,320
Speaker 3: go someplace and get on the.

1560
01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:13,800
Speaker 1: Field, plus when you're on a fifty three man, roster

1561
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:15,360
Speaker 1: you're making more money than you are to practice.

1562
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:16,000
Speaker 5: Squad that's.

1563
01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:19,960
Speaker 3: Right so he's made ten times the money playing In

1564
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:21,679
Speaker 3: New england that he would have been on the practice

1565
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,000
Speaker 3: squad here In. Buffalo and he might. Have but on

1566
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:25,719
Speaker 3: the other, hand, too last year he might have gotten

1567
01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:28,040
Speaker 3: on the field because of the, injuries and it might

1568
01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:28,640
Speaker 3: be different for.

1569
01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:31,840
Speaker 1: Him, now let's go To tom In. Lackjuana what's, Up?

1570
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:33,599
Speaker 13: Tom, hey.

1571
01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:37,080
Speaker 16: GUYS i thought it was a really great. DRAFT i

1572
01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:41,280
Speaker 16: was a little worried About harriston's tackling, ability BUT i

1573
01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:43,760
Speaker 16: think they can coach him. Up it sounded like they

1574
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:48,559
Speaker 16: say he's a willing, participant and it sounds, like what

1575
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 16: do you call? It the guy From Ohio state will

1576
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:55,200
Speaker 16: be a good back up To terran Because terran is not.

1577
01:18:55,320 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 16: Old but getting up, there. Yep the only THING i

1578
01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 16: was kind of disappointed and Is Jalen reid didn't go

1579
01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:06,800
Speaker 16: TO a one eighty. Seven OH i don't. Know AND

1580
01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:09,120
Speaker 16: i thought The bills might even had him in for an.

1581
01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 16: Interview not. SURE i don't know if there was something

1582
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:14,920
Speaker 16: in the interview or if there was something. Physical but

1583
01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 16: the way he filled in For winston on a top flight,

1584
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 16: TEAM i was really hoping that they'd pick him, up

1585
01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:24,639
Speaker 16: and you, KNOW i know they got placed to, fill

1586
01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:29,840
Speaker 16: but they drafted the tight end and strong when he

1587
01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 16: was still on the. BOARD i just wondered what your

1588
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:32,679
Speaker 16: feelings were On Jalen.

1589
01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:35,880
Speaker 1: Reid, YEAH i really Like Jalen. Reid we actually talked

1590
01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:39,519
Speaker 1: To Greg cosell about him BECAUSE i remember just didn't

1591
01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 1: getting ready for this draft. CLASS i was Watching Kevin winston,

1592
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:44,679
Speaker 1: tape who's his teammate and fellow safety At Penn, state

1593
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 1: because he was supposed to be a highly touted safety,

1594
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,080
Speaker 1: prospect And i'm, like, man who is this? Guy and

1595
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:51,680
Speaker 1: THEN i was, Like, oh this Is Jalen. Reid AND

1596
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:54,920
Speaker 1: i started watching, him AND i, think if you want

1597
01:19:54,960 --> 01:19:57,240
Speaker 1: to knock some of his game a little, bit he's

1598
01:19:57,280 --> 01:20:00,360
Speaker 1: almost too aggressive and at times on his tape he

1599
01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 1: will miss tackles because of. That, now any coach in

1600
01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:05,559
Speaker 1: the league will tell you they'd rather have a guy

1601
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:07,920
Speaker 1: you got to tell to turn it down rather than

1602
01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:10,559
Speaker 1: you have to turn it. Up BUT i liked his

1603
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:13,439
Speaker 1: profile a. Lot thought he would have been a good

1604
01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 1: fit here because he does have coverability and he's a

1605
01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:19,960
Speaker 1: guy who you could play just Like. HANCOCK i don't

1606
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:22,880
Speaker 1: think he runs as fast As, Handcock So i'm just.

1607
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:26,479
Speaker 1: GUESSING i would guess that The bills probably had a

1608
01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:30,639
Speaker 1: higher grade On hancock than they did On, reid and

1609
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:33,760
Speaker 1: for whatever, reason you, KNOW i Think reid got drafted By.

1610
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,760
Speaker 1: HOUSTON i want to, say, yes he went in the

1611
01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: sixth round To. Houston SO i think it's safe to,

1612
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:43,360
Speaker 1: say based on where they came off the, board teams

1613
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:45,880
Speaker 1: probably had a higher grade On hancock than they did On,

1614
01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:48,080
Speaker 1: reid and that's why The bills made the pick that

1615
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:51,120
Speaker 1: they did Of hancock, earlier a full round, earlier as

1616
01:20:51,160 --> 01:20:54,080
Speaker 1: a matter of. Fact so hope that helps you To

1617
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,320
Speaker 1: carl And. Depew what's, Up, carl.

1618
01:20:57,560 --> 01:20:57,840
Speaker 11: How you?

1619
01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 13: Doing thanks for taking a, call. Guys first of, ALL

1620
01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:04,000
Speaker 13: i just want to talk about The James. Cookdale that's

1621
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:08,240
Speaker 13: a no. Brainer like you said, Earlier, chris we got

1622
01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:10,240
Speaker 13: him next year and we're having the year after so

1623
01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:14,080
Speaker 13: it's a non issue and you, know we need the

1624
01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:16,240
Speaker 13: people need to move on from. It as far as

1625
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:19,200
Speaker 13: as far as our draft, WENT i thought it went very.

1626
01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:24,679
Speaker 13: Well hopefully hopefully there's a diamond in a, rough maybe

1627
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:28,080
Speaker 13: A Miles garrett in. There who, knows you don't know

1628
01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:30,800
Speaker 13: till you bring him in and you try. Him and

1629
01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:35,280
Speaker 13: other than, THAT i think as far as the offensive go,

1630
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:38,920
Speaker 13: on people complaining about the, RECEIVERS i think we all

1631
01:21:38,960 --> 01:21:41,360
Speaker 13: agreed last. Year we agreed that we had plenty of

1632
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:44,720
Speaker 13: receivers in the, room and it turned out that we

1633
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:48,120
Speaker 13: had plenty of. Receivers they did a good. Job and

1634
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,479
Speaker 13: you're talking About kim, kid who was hurt most of

1635
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:53,960
Speaker 13: the year with the, knee and the other dude who

1636
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:56,800
Speaker 13: got the cheap shot From poyer in The miami. Game

1637
01:21:56,880 --> 01:22:00,479
Speaker 13: he wasn't the same after that. Comment but after a,

1638
01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:03,280
Speaker 13: year they should Be after a, year, right you, KNOW

1639
01:22:04,040 --> 01:22:06,559
Speaker 13: i think they're gonna come back and be way better ball.

1640
01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:09,880
Speaker 13: Players AND i think we got plenty of offensive. Firepower

1641
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 13: so that's ALL i got to. Say and what do

1642
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:14,280
Speaker 13: you guys got to think about?

1643
01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:14,439
Speaker 19: It?

1644
01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:17,559

1645
01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:21,320
Speaker 3: FIREPOWER i, mean, yeah that's about scoring. Points they scored

1646
01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:23,080
Speaker 3: more than. Anybody so, yeah and they're get AND i

1647
01:22:23,080 --> 01:22:25,000
Speaker 3: think they're better this. Year their offensive line is going

1648
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:29,120
Speaker 3: to be. Better they should Get they should at least

1649
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 3: begin the season, healthier and if they stay that, way,

1650
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:37,040
Speaker 3: yeah they're going to be significantly, better which, says you,

1651
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 3: KNOW i don't. Know it's hard to, imagine but there you.

1652
01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:39,599
Speaker 5: Go.

1653
01:22:41,600 --> 01:22:43,640
Speaker 3: Yeah and as For James, Cook i'm with. YOU i

1655
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:48,559
Speaker 3: rest of his, contracts see where it takes. You he'll get.

1656
01:22:48,560 --> 01:22:52,000
Speaker 3: Paid if he plays, well he will get. Paid and

1657
01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:53,840
Speaker 3: if The bills want, him they'll pay.

1658
01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:54,280
Speaker 6: Him.

1659
01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:58,400
Speaker 1: Yeah it's pretty simple and. Straightforward AND i Mean i'll

1660
01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:01,360
Speaker 1: say this, though go. AHEAD i was just gonna say real.

1661
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:05,240
Speaker 1: Quick could he skip all the offseason stuff because he's

1662
01:23:05,400 --> 01:23:07,720
Speaker 1: disappointed and doesn't want to be? Here, sure he, can't

1663
01:23:08,280 --> 01:23:10,840
Speaker 1: but he knows and The bills. Know in the last

1664
01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:13,679
Speaker 1: year of his rookie deal short of an, extension he's

1665
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:17,160
Speaker 1: got to play and play. Well he's not going to

1666
01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 1: give up a year of his career just to sit

1667
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:21,960
Speaker 1: out because he's rankled about his.

1668
01:23:22,080 --> 01:23:24,519
Speaker 3: Pay, well, yes he can't afford to do. It, yeah

1669
01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:27,280
Speaker 3: he could count the worst second. Career the only thing

1670
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:30,559
Speaker 3: he could do is come in and hold, in come to,

1671
01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:32,840
Speaker 3: work tell him he didn't want to. Play he gets his,

1672
01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,800
Speaker 3: money it's, guaranteed but he only gets it if he's

1673
01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:39,280
Speaker 3: in the. Building and that's and then it'd be awkward

1674
01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:45,120
Speaker 3: to have me, in BUT i would If I'm i'm With.

1675
01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:47,519
Speaker 3: Brownie you got to come in and play and enhance your.

1676
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:51,200
Speaker 3: Value he comes in and put hangs another one thousand yard.

1677
01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:53,240
Speaker 3: Season he's coming off three straight in a thousand yard.

1678
01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:56,360
Speaker 3: Seasons he's a role player for the. TEAM i, mean

1679
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:58,760
Speaker 3: it's not like he's getting over. Work so another team could, say,

1680
01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:00,840
Speaker 3: hey he's got plenty of tread on The he's gonna

1681
01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:04,960
Speaker 3: be a valuable. Commodity so, YEAH i think he's foolish

1682
01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:07,880
Speaker 3: not to come in and. Play and as for the

1683
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:10,599
Speaker 3: young draft picks That carl, said you, know come, in

1684
01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:13,040
Speaker 3: we might Have Miles, scaratt there ain't No Miles garrett

1685
01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:17,360
Speaker 3: in this. Draft, No Abdul carter Isn't Miles.

1686
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:21,320

1687
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,960

1701
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:07,040
Speaker 1: i disagree too BECAUSE i Think josh did less than

1702
01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:09,200
Speaker 1: he ever has in his entire. Career look at the.

1703
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 1: Stats he didn't hit four thousand yards last year passing

1704
01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:14,639
Speaker 1: because the run game was a beast last.

1705
01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:17,720
Speaker 3: Year that's the sit. There the trend was last year

1706
01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 3: was for him to hand it off To James cook

1707
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:22,880
Speaker 3: and use him that. Way and You josh had a

1708
01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:25,200
Speaker 3: better years individually two years ago when he should have

1709
01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:28,760
Speaker 3: won THE. Mvp last year when he cut his interceptions

1710
01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:32,559
Speaker 3: down to accept what you, know media acceptable levels and

1711
01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:35,160
Speaker 3: they had no. Choice so when there are other guys

1712
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:37,439
Speaker 3: out there worthy of THE, mvp But josh is he

1713
01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:39,040
Speaker 3: should have got it two years, ago and it was

1714
01:25:39,360 --> 01:25:40,000
Speaker 3: criminal that he.

1715
01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:42,360
Speaker 1: Didn't they didn't even rely on him running as. Much,

1716
01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:47,759

Speaker 1: off this. Offseason at the end of the, year he

1718
01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:51,960
Speaker 1: felt his body felt as good as it has ever

1719
01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:53,680
Speaker 1: felt because they took the hits off him at the

1720
01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:56,479
Speaker 1: goal line and he didn't get. Sacked that's.

1756
01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:41,000

1757
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:42,760
Speaker 1: not good, enough and he brought in a bunch of

1758
01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:45,360
Speaker 1: players WHO i think can make immediate. Impact the d

1759
01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:48,320
Speaker 1: is also trending towards getting younger being nailed the draft

1760
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:50,000

1761

Speaker 5: Season.

1762
01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:52,400
Speaker 1: YEAH i wrote about this On buffalo bills Dot com

1763
01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:55,960
Speaker 1: in my Final draft. Observations The bill's defensive line that

1764
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,040
Speaker 1: took the field Against Kansas city at the end of the,

1765
01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:01,600
Speaker 1: season average Age steve was twenty eight point. Eight the

1766
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:04,479
Speaker 1: average age of the defensive roster right now is twenty

1767
01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:07,639
Speaker 1: four point, seven five years younger.

1768
01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:12,080
Speaker 5: Almost, yeah well you can see it.

01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:16,559
Speaker 3: Coming, yeah and they wanted to get more athletic and.

1770
01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:19,280
Speaker 3: Younger we thought they would try and do that last

1771
01:28:19,360 --> 01:28:21,640
Speaker 3: year with all the. Departures didn't work out that.

1772
01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:23,800
Speaker 5: Way now it.

1773
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:27,600
Speaker 1: Has From jacob to. Takeaways, one lots of competition in

1774
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:30,400
Speaker 1: the defensive back. Room, two lack of competition in the

1775
01:28:30,400 --> 01:28:33,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Room well that's your. Opinion you're entitled to,

1776
01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:38,200
Speaker 1: it so we'll see how it all shakes. Out a

1777
01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:42,000
Speaker 1: lot of competition on defensive line now. Too john says

1778
01:28:42,080 --> 01:28:45,479
Speaker 1: defense he definitely. Addressed but If josh gets hurt because

1779
01:28:45,479 --> 01:28:48,439
Speaker 1: we can only play short ball every ball And cook

1780
01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:51,439
Speaker 1: is still an, Issue brandon will not be. Happy still
