20
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: football is back to some degree, right, We're gonna take OTAs,

21
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna take what we can get, even though it's

22
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: not intense practices, but being able to be out there

23
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: with the median watching the team kind of get together

24
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: most of the team, we should say it's exciting football back. Well,

25
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: when you get to the start of phase three of

26
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: offseason workouts and means ots you can go eleven on

27
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: eleven for the first time in the offseason, no pads,

28
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: no contact allowed, and we got a chance to see

29
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: you know, eleven on eleven yesterday. Obviously they're not, you know,

30
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: going one hundred miles an hour, so you know, it's

31
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: part of the process. When you get to this point,

32
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: you know there's ninety players out there, well maybe eighty

33
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: players out there, but you know when it comes to

34
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, and really this is where you

35
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: build a foundation and for the new guys, you start

36
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: to get that connection with your new teammates. How exciting

37
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: this is this time as a player, Drew is this

38
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: kind of when it kind of hits you like, okay,

39
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: it's it's it's go time. Now all the work you've

40
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: been working on, you know, by yourself up until this point,

41
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: like now it's now it's time to really get going

42
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: in the off season. Yeah, well, I think you have

43
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: a better sense of what the team is going to

44
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: look like right now. The free agencies over with, now,

45
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: the drafts over with, and now you're done working out

46
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: and you've kind of spent that time and you've laid

47
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: the groundwork and this is just another step in the

48
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: process of getting ready for the regular season. You get

49
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: in here, you get your work, You feel good about

50
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: the nuances of the offense that are going to change,

51
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 1: the direction that it's going to change because of the

52
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: pieces that are in place, and you start adding it together.

53
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: And I think from a quarterback perspective, you get the

54
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: luxury of going back and watching all of the film

55
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. You see, you, Okay,

56
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: this is where we want to go with the guys

57
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: that we have, and it's on tape now, and you

58
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: can coach off of the tape. And then you can

59
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: also sit there and you can learn. You can put

60
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: the time in right now because it's not so strenuous,

61
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: it's not so you know, groundhog day of each day.

62
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: Every Monday is the same every Tuesday Wednesday. So now

63
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: you get the luxury of really slowing things down an

64
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: MJ's point of bringing some of these young guys along

65
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: that really need it, that you're going to rely on

66
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: or depend upon, and you know, having a veteran presence

67
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: like Colt McCoy, the tier that knows the offense. Now

68
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: he's not learning himself. He can now go give that

69
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: knowledge away to some of these younger wide receivers are

70
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: gonna have to play some of these younger running backs,

71
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: even the communication on the offensive line. So from a

72
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: quarterbacks perspective, this is great because it's about the skill

73
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: players and about helping them and being a younger guy

74
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: that's confident and really raising that level because you're going

75
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: to have to rely a lot on a lot of

76
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: these guys that we might not even know right. Training

77
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: camp is going to do that. But heading into training camp,

78
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: you want to put your best foot forward to be

79
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: prepared to go in a training camp of saying that, hey,

80
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: I had a great spring, I had a great OTA session,

81
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: and I turned some heads to be able to say

82
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to make this roster or I'm going to

83
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: make a difference if my time comes on the field,

84
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: would you say this is more of a passing camp.

85
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: It's just because you really can't run the ball. I mean,

86
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: you can run your formation. More of a passing camp

87
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 1: when we get to this point, yeah, well, I think

88
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: that there's still benefits of you know, the offensive line,

89
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: of defensive line and rush lanes and gaps and all

90
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: that stuff that's so important, right, and we haven't had

91
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: that luxury in the past couple of years of teaching

92
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: these young guys what's going on. There's different holes, there's

93
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: different assignments, there's different alignments, and yeah, it gets a

94
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: little bit more chippy out there depending on the team

95
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: that you have as far as the run games pertain too.

96
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: But at the same time, yes, this becomes all of

97
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: a past happy two minute drill end of game scenarios.

98
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: You start to really slow things down, and we always

99
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: start out with the run period in the beginning and

100
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: then sprinkling some runs, but the majority of that's going

101
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: to work itself out in training camp. The twenty twenty

102
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: two season, we've been saying has been in full swing

103
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: since the last couple of months, combine draft, all of that,

104
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: but seeing the players out on the field really makes

105
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: it feel more real and it's, you know, time to

106
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: kind of move past how twenty twenty one ended. We

107
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: got a chance to talk to some players with the

108
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: media after practice Monday afternoon, one of whom was safety

109
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: Buddha Baker, who talk a lot about out him stepping

110
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: up as a leader, especially now that Chandler Jones joined

111
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: the Raiders in free agency Jordan Hicks with the Minnesota Vikings,

112
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: and this is what he had to say on kind

113
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: of changing things this year where guys might have been

114
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 1: feeling a little too comfortable in twenty twenty one. We're

115
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 1: just taking it one day at a time, you know,

116
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: one week at a time, and if we can do that,

117
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: we'll win. You know, you guys saw us do that first,

118
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 1: you know, eight nine games of last year, and I

119
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: felt like guys possibly might have got comfortable. You know

120
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 1: a lot of headlines, a lot of guys, you know

121
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: a lot of wins, you know, and all that type

122
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: of stuff. But it's up to you know, us as

123
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 1: professionals to ignore the noise and just to take it

124
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: one week at a time because if we do, you know,

125
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: we believe We're a great football team, and this year,

126
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: I think we're going to be a way better team

127
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: than we were last year. Drew what's the fine line

128
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: between moving on from last season, especially the way it ended,

129
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: while still learning those less and carrying them into this

130
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: season without dwelling on the past. Well, I think you

131
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: just look at what they were on how that happened,

132
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: and you correct the mistakes and the errors that happened.

133
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 1: Or when it slipped away, you know, like Buddha was

134
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: talking about, they kept preaching the one day mentality, one

135
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: to no one to no one, don't know, and all

136
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: of a sudden they looked up and they had all

137
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: these wins and they're like, oh man, well we're going playoffs.

138
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: We're doing this. They lost that mentality and Buddha kind

139
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: of alluded to it there, like they got comfortable and

140
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: all that. So I think being able to identify that earlier.

141
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: But everybody plays this game for different reasons. There's different

142
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: motivations and there's different things. But I think the biggest

143
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: thing in Buddha does such a good job with this

144
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 1: is being able to lead authentically. Yes, he needs to

145
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: step up as a leader because some of these pieces

146
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: are going to be gone, but there's new leaders that

147
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: are coming in. There's new leaders are going to be around.

148
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: And leadership can look many different ways. It can be vocal,

149
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: it can be physical. I mean, Larry wasn't the most

150
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: vocal person that I ever played with, but he led

151
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: by the way he conducted himself on a daily basis,

152
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: and I think that is what can galvanize a group.

153
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: That can galvanize a team to make them better so

154
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: they can weather those storms. And those storms are much

155
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: shorter than all of a sudden, these dips that we

156
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: saw last year or have seen you in the last

157
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: couple of years, where all of a sudden, it goes

158
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: off the rails and there's no getting it back. So

159
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: being able to have one voice, one guy, especially somebody

160
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: like Buddha that everybody can kind of look to, and

161
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: when he speaks, people listen, that's going to mean a lot.

162
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember a guy like Carlos Dansby. He

163
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: did such a good job of always carrying himself like

164
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: a professional, and when he spoke and he broke down

165
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: the huddle or he had to energize a group or

166
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: get the things back on track, guys listened and They

167
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: didn't question anything. They just went out there and did

168
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: their job. This is really excuse me. This is really

169
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: the first time where a player of his ILK came

170
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: out and said that maybe this team got comfortable. So

171
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: he kind of gave us a little insight there. And

172
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: I guess when you're winning and you're still putting the

173
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: work in, but all of a sudden, maybe you just

174
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: think you got to step on the field. And I

175
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: don't know what that was the case. Obviously injuries, losing

176
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: JJ Watt and DeAndre Hopkins, but for the most part,

177
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he is the glue of the defense saying

178
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a bigger role, and you know he's

179
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: mentioned that he thinks to safeties are the quarterbacks of

180
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: this defense. You know, you start looking at the cornerbacks.

181
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: You know, that was a strength going into the season,

182
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: and then by the end of the season there were

183
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: some holes in the secondary. So but this is really

184
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: the first time that maybe a player of his ILK

185
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: came out and said we maybe a film too comfortable.

186
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: First time I've heard that. Yeah, And as this team

187
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: moves forward into the twenty twenty two season, OTAs is

188
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: the great start for that. And you know we've talked

189
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: about it's it's not intense practicing. It's more about just

190
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: getting those reps. And head coach Cliff Kingsbury was asked

191
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: what he tries to get out of these OTAs, and

192
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: here was his answer. You know, it's good to have

193
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: him around each other first and foremost after a couple

194
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: of years of not having that much time. I think

195
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: team building is big, just being in locker room, wait

196
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: room doing things together, and then a lot of mental reps.

197
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: Just it's one thing to be in the meeting rooms

198
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: and they're nodding and say they got it, but it's

199
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 1: another thing to go out there and apply it and

200
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: be able to coach from the film, whether it's full

201
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: Speed or Walters, and so the mental stuff is huge.

202
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: It's exactly what you were saying earlier, Drew as a

203
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: player to get the most out of OTAs. Does it

204
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: differ if you are a rookie or afore your veteran

205
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you're in a specific position group. Well,

206
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 1: I think that all of that stuff matters in the

207
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: long run because we're being evaluated on our tape. As

208
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 1: Cliff was talking about, what you put on film is

209
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 1: your resume. And we've talked about that before in games,

210
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: but in practice right now, that's what they're basing everything

211
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: off of. It is this next step in the journey,

212
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: and some of these young guys like they get nervous

213
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: just going out on that field. Being a veteran that

214
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: was established with an offense, knew it. I still went

215
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: in with a mentality, Okay, what can I learn this

216
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: day that I didn't know? What adjustment can I have

217
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: in this protection if I need to be and then

218
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: how can I give that knowledge away? I mean I

219
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 1: would try and slow things down so much of over

220
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: communicate in OTAs because you want these young wide receivers

221
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: that might not have been used to being seeing like

222
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: hots and sights and points stuff out or having offensive

223
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: linement that are worried because you have a new kid

224
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 1: playing center that you know and identified the mic right away.

225
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: So over communicating allowing guys to play to their best

226
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: of their ability and feel comfortable on top of learning

227
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: and educating and then teaching off the film. I mean

228
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: that's the beauty of this and the structure of OTAs.

229
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: Everything is about the mental approach of how you can

230
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: build off of that, and that's why it's been such

231
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: a travesty to not have it for these young guys

232
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: because you get thrown into the fire, and some of

233
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: these guys on defense especially, we've seen what a detriment

234
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: it's been to them because all of a sudden, you

235
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: get thrown in the deep end and you can't swim

236
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: and it's like, I can't make an adjustment here, and

237
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: then it's paralysis by analysis, and you see that at

238
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: every position, depending on the guys. But if there's a

239
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: core group of guys that are kind of bringing everybody

240
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: along offensively and defensively, which I think exists here in

241
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: this franchise, you're going to benefit immensely. And Cliff was

242
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: even talking about it as like, sometimes it's just a

243
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: matter of getting this nucleus together and you start pulling

244
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,719
Speaker 1: everybody in the same direction and the camaraderie. Because once

245
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: the season comes, those blinders are on and it's Groundhog's

246
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 1: Day and you're going, Okay, what do we need to

247
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: win this week? What do we need to win this week?

248
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: And once that transpires, you might, you know, not necessarily

249
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: understand fully, and you're gonna get left behind, and you're

250
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: gonna get left and dust and Je. You were out

251
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: at practice at OTAs a Monday. You gotta be out

252
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: there for a long time with the media. What's it

253
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: out to you? Well, just the temple of the practice.

254
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: And they hired a new defensive line coach in Matt Burke,

255
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: and he's got some different drills. And you know, I

256
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: was a big fan of Brinson Buckner, but I think

257
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: a new voice will go a long way. They're doing

258
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: different drills and you can see he's more about technique

259
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: and you know, getting off the ball, the explosion. You know,

260
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: obviously J. J. Watt's going one hundred miles an hour.

261
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: You were out there, and then just some of these

262
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: you know, the fact that they signed six tryout guys.

263
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: You know, I look at a guy like Christian Blake

264
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: thirty were number thirty nine. He was with the Falcons,

265
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: a special teams player. He's got good size six two.

266
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: I like what zach Ertz is doing. I mean, Davin

267
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: Collins is making the calls. It looks more comfortable, more confident.

268
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 1: Greg Dortche to me, it looks like he's more comfortable

269
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: when it comes to him kind of watching punts and receiving.

270
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: I know Cliff is a big fan of Craig Dortch,

271
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 1: so you know, you know, you like to see him

272
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown here. Obviously Hop's not here or it's not

273
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: practice unless I don't know that A J. Green. So

274
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: it was good to see the veterans out here. But

275
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: I can't say enough about zach Ertz. You know, you

276
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: could see all these guys are in their second year.

277
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: They're much more comfortable. You could see how they walk

278
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: around the facility now. And you know, I think Hop

279
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: could have been a captain, And I don't know how

280
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: that's going to affect it now, but I would think

281
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: zach Ertz should be a captain on this team. He's

282
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: got that much leadership and he's going to be a

283
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 1: guy that's going to be able to take a guy

284
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: like Tray mcgride under his wing. And I think mcgride

285
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: very good route runner. Obviously he's going to learn the system,

286
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: but he's soft when he catches the ball runs up

287
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: the field. So I'm encouraged based on a couple of

288
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: the draft picks, but also you know the guys that

289
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: are returning, and I think Nick Vigil is this guy

290
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: that stood out to me just you know, I think

291
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: we know that Isaiah and Zaban are going to be

292
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: here linebackers, but Nick Vigils a guy that's going to

293
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: replace Jordan Hicks. We could see more of him versus

294
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: maybe a guy like Kennard, and you're still going to

295
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: have Marcus Colden out there. An early observation was quarterback

296
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray was not out on the field at OTAs,

297
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: and when asked about his absence, here is what Buddha

298
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: Baker had to say. For me, I honestly think that

299
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: I know kay One is working really hard. I know

300
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: that he, you know, is doing all the things that

301
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: he can, whether it's talking to the coaches, talking to

302
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: the players, and I know that when he gets here,

303
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: he's going to be ready. There's going to be no

304
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: drop off, and you know, I'm excited for you know,

305
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: when the whole team gets together. We should make it

306
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: clear that OTAs are voluntary, and Kyler Murray was not

307
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: the only veteran, not the only starter who was not

308
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: out on the field, So we should make that clear

309
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: for everybody listening. It wasn't just Kyler Murray drew not

310
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: having your starting quarterback there though. What would the camaraderie

311
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: be around this team? Is that a concern for you

312
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: in any sense? Yeah, you think, I jay, Um, yeah,

313
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: it's a concern. If I'm being completely honest with you, Yes,

314
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: that is a concern. Um. You know, I am very

315
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: hesitant to criticize quarterbacks or anything like that. But you're

316
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: the leader of the team. You're not here, and um,

317
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: you know there's a business component too as well, so

318
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: you you understand that it's too bad. It's not like

319
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: he's some player that's gonna go out there and hurt

320
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 1: himself throwing a football. It's not. He's not putting himself

321
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: in harm's way. I think with the way that the

322
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: season ended last year, I would have liked to see

323
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: my starting quarterbacks say, hey, you know what, I'm not

324
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: content with what went on, and I'll let all that

325
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: money stuff. For whatever reason, he's not here, I don't

326
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: know what it's for. But at the same time, colts

327
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: getting all these reps, you know, all these young guys

328
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: are getting reps and doing that. So that is it's

329
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: completely voluntary, and there's you know, he has his prerogative

330
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: to not be here. But at the same time, I

331
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: would like my starting quarterback to be here working on stuff,

332
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: working with new guys. Now. I know he's working with

333
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: Holly Brod Brown probably so where else and doing that,

334
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: but he's not seeing cover so they're not talking about

335
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: different stuff. And yes, they were worked on stuff at Oklahoma.

336
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: This is a different speed, it's a different animal that

337
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: you're dealing with. It's different adjustments. It's the whole picture

338
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: that you have to look at. It's not just two

339
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: guys on how they're going to fit in and plug

340
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: in when they come in. Now, does Kyler have the

341
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 1: talent to do it? Yes? Is this all to do

342
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: about nothing? Because this is the end of May and

343
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: we can sit and dissect everything one hundred percent, But

344
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: it's still disheartening the fact that the franchise quarterback is

345
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: not in the building getting to know everybody here, doing

346
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: everything that he can to make sure this team is

347
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: as good as they can be hidden in training camp.

348
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: You're right, Kyler Murray has been working out in Dallas

349
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: with Hollywood Brown. And when Kingsbury was asked about not

350
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 1: seeing his newst wide receiver and his quarterback out here

351
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: at OTAs, this is what he had to say. I've

352
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: seen him together live and in person on the other team,

353
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: and it was not fun for me, so I know

354
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: what it looks like. But now I think, like I've

355
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: said before, I think as a coach, you want to

356
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: have these guys here all the time, but it's just

357
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: not how the rules are set up, and different guys

358
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: handle in different ways. I think one of the biggest

359
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: things that out of Kingsbury talking to the media was

360
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: him saying, yes, he does expect Kyler Murray to be

361
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: here for mandatory minicamp, which is June fourteenth through June sixteenth. Well,

362
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: the difference is it's mandatory and if you're under contract,

363
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: you could get fine. The only thing I could say

364
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: is both parties have communicated and there's other players. There's

365
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: probably five to eight players that are veterans weren't here yesterday,

366
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: so they check in with their position coach and obviously

367
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: they relate it to their head coach. To me, it's

368
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: more it's really about the perception, and I he speaks

369
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: like a guy that's playing in the league and he

370
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: knows how important this is in the offseason, So I

371
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: couldn't agree more. But the thing is, it's not like

372
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: he's in Cobbo. He should be here. Unfortunately, they have

373
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: communicated and so it seems like everyone's on the same page.

374
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: So but the fact that he's not here, that's just

375
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: more you think camaraderie standpoint, right. I mean, Carson didn't

376
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: do Ota is, but he was still here doing stuff.

377
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: Not to compare one player to the next, because that's

378
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: not fair, but to be in the building and still

379
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: be around. I think there's value in that because Kyler

380
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: Murray's been here throughout the offseason working out. But you're right,

381
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 1: OTAs ots are different. Yeah, and again that's what you

382
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: have to, you know, try to figure out. Hopefully he

383
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: gets here sooner rather than later. Well, we have more

384
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 1: OTA's talk coming up, along with some exciting breaking news,

385
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: some all access behind the scenes look for the entire

386
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 1: season for the Arizona Cardinals next year. All that and

387
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: more so stay tuned with us on Cardinal's Red Sea report.

Speaker 1: fifteen ten five top down Kyler Murray, you are ridiculous.

408
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is nastin who the stuff you see in

409
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: dreams and in video games. The Arizona Cardinals will be

410
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: featured on this season of HBO's Hard Knocks, not the

411
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: normal Hard Knocks where it's just their training camp that

412
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: goes to the Detroit Lions. This year, the Cardinals will

413
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: be featured throughout the season. Last year it was the

414
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts as the inaugural team to do so. In

415
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: this year it's the Cardinals, which is exciting pros and

416
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: cons which we will talk about. But MJ, why does

417
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: it make sense for the Cardinals to get all these

418
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: eyes on them this season? Well, you know, it's a

419
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: little bit different than all or nothing, and Drew Stanton

420
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 1: was involved in that, and you know NFL films were here,

421
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 1: and he'll get into you know, maybe the quarterbacks didn't

422
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: want cameras in their room, but you know, this is

423
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: a great opportunity to build a brand up. And you know,

424
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: Kingsbury kind of alluded to yesterday when you're when you're

425
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: on camera and maybe you're gonna watch what you say.

426
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna try to get some personalities out

427
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: in the Indianapolis Colts. Last year they started going on

428
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: a winning streak when they started filming them. I think

429
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: they lost three out of their last six, And of

430
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: course I did watch that last episode. It was heartbreaking

431
00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 1: when I lost to Jacksonville. So you know, you know,

432
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: the Cardinals have had these slides in the second half

433
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: of this season, maybe we see some more accountability and

434
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,959
Speaker 1: hopefully they could figure that out. But again, if there

435
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 1: is some pros and cons to it, and you know,

436
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day, the team

437
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 1: will have, you know, a final say on what's you know, broadcasting.

438
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: I think Mark Dalton's going to do a good job

439
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 1: to where he's going to give these guys, you know,

440
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: storylines so they can obviously, you know, bring up stories

441
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: maybe we haven't heard before, right Mark Dalton with the

442
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 1: media relations department. So the first episode will come out

443
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: in November, so they'll have a small karate here again

444
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: in the first couple weeks and then it'll be full

445
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: steam ahead. When Cliff Kingsbury was asked about being on

446
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks, it's it's almost a little ironic because we

447
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: know that Kingsbury is, at least with the media, a

448
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: little more introverted, right, So the fact that he's going

449
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: to have all these cameras on him, and he told us,

450
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: you know, he's looking at it in a positive light

451
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: and he's looking at the good that having all these

452
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: cameras on him and the rest of his team can

453
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: bring to them. We obviously struggled back after last season,

454
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: it has an opportunity to come in and guys, we'll

455
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: perk up when the cameras around. You don't want to

456
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: look bad on a camera. It's just kind of human nature.

457
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: And so it's like I said, if we approach you

458
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: the right way and still continue to be our authentic selves,

459
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: I think he'd be a real push at that point. Dure,

460
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: you have a little experience being on camera with All

461
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: or Nothing here with the Cardinals, with Hard Knocks, throughout

462
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: training camp with the Browns in twenty eighteen. Do you

463
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,160
Speaker 1: think that's true when the cameras are on you kind

464
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: of step up your game. Oh, you know, I think

465
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,360
Speaker 1: it depends on the person, to be honest, I think

466
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: that sometimes when you just get used to have them around.

467
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: I mean they were they were here that whole time

468
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: for All or Nothing, and they just kind of became

469
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: a regular presence. You got to know the guys that

470
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: were the film guys you know, got another producers, so

471
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 1: you know, they were here for the whole duration, which

472
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 1: was vastly different than Hard Knocks, where it was like

473
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: training camp with the Browns. There was all the turmoil

474
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 1: around the Browns and Hugh Jackson coming off one and

475
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,640
Speaker 1: thirty one and oh in sixteen seasons, so different storylines.

476
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: Everybody's trying to get those points across with hard Knocks,

477
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: and Hard Knocks has been around for a very long time,

478
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: so I have not seen the cults from last year,

479
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: but I think I mean more time to space things

480
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: out and get a true storyline established, And as you

481
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,879
Speaker 1: guys alluded to with Mark Dalton, they'll do a phenomenal

482
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: job here of making sure that the brand is put

483
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: in the best possible light, because I think as a player,

484
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 1: you can see it as a distraction or it can

485
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: just go away. There's a lot of different ways, and

486
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: some guys, these personalities love to take off or do

487
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: different stuff, or you know, I can see somebody like

488
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: Dennis Gardack like being the star of the show just

489
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: because that's he's charismatic, all those things, where most guys

490
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 1: they just want to go about their job. They want

491
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: to do their job to the best of their ability,

492
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: and if somebody's filming it, it's not going to change

493
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: or do anything. Like. There's certain places that everybody sees

494
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: stuff in the weight room, in the lunch room, on

495
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: the practice field PrePost practice, all those things that kind

496
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: of transpire, and it can be a distraction if you

497
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: let it be distraction. If you just go about your

498
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: business and you operate, you know the professional that you are,

499
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: which there's many on this team that would just put

500
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: their head down and continue to work and it won't

501
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: matter if anything's around them. Then it is what it is,

502
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: and it becomes a good piece to be able to

503
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,199
Speaker 1: show everybody with the twenty twenty two Arizona Cardinals are

504
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 1: all about. So really it's more secondary. And now you

505
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: guys didn't want any cameras in your room? Yes, yeah,

506
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: that was very clear. That was very clear. Well in

507
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: the quarterback rooms, you know, in particular, like there are

508
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 1: some really tough conversations decisions that need to be made,

509
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,479
Speaker 1: but there has to be transparency in there, and if

510
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: you feel like you can't fully share that because it's

511
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: being filmed. You know, sometimes you have tough conversations about

512
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: teammates you would hate for that to get out because

513
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 1: you're trying to do that, Or you have open book

514
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: discussions on certain guys that might be struggling on how

515
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: to help assist them. All that stuff that doesn't necessarily

516
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: need to be you know, put on tape I think

517
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,159
Speaker 1: is important. But at the same time, if it's on

518
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: the practice field, if it's content and you're doing this,

519
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: you never want to have your guard let down. And

520
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: I think sometimes you know, we kind of had to

521
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: rule in the quarterback room too, of everywhere I had been,

522
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: if you're miked up for that game, you need to

523
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: let everybody else know around you, because I think that's

524
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: only fair and not to be said that like some

525
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 1: guy's going to say something stupid to do that, because

526
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: they do a good job of trying to put everybody

527
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: in the best light. But at the same time, you

528
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: at least want to know that's the case. So with

529
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: within what we were doing and that time frame, as

530
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: far as the all or nothing when we were pushing forward, Uh,

531
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: we just requested that about being there and they were

532
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: fantastic about it. We gave him other content. I remember

533
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: Carson like wrote in and had to ride in the

534
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: car with him and do different stuff. There's other ways

535
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: to be able to get to know somebody. Then have

536
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: the camera shining down on somebody all the time and

537
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 1: you don't know if it's recording or the red light.

538
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: It gave us like anxiety We're like, get this thing

539
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: out of here please. So to Tom Moore was all

540
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 1: about it too, He's like, yo, we don't need that.

541
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: Well they picked the right room with the defensive backs, right,

542
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, yeah no, I mean, oh yeah, no,

543
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: the same thing. Like you do. You either put it

544
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: in in the wide receiver room, the D line room,

545
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: or the DB's room, and you will get the best

546
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: content ever. I mean, that's where Jarvis when I was

547
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: in Cleveland, you know, like he got up there and

548
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: he had that passionate speech about a bunch of guys

549
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: not practicing. You know, well that's right, Yeah, that's how

550
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,679
Speaker 1: That's how he is. So you're going to get good content,

551
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: especially over the duration that you're here. Um, it just

552
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: gives you more insight. And for the people that are

553
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: die harders on a Cardinals fans or want to know

554
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: more about what it's like the life in the NFL,

555
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: it's a great opportunity to put out this type of

556
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: media content for people to get a better feel. You

557
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: mentioned Dennis Gardeck, and I think that's a great person

558
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: to think about who hard knocks will probably gear one

559
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,239
Speaker 1: of their side stories too. There's gonna be a lot

560
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: more than the normal Hard Knocks because they're gonna have

561
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: all season. And I've been trying to think, you know,

562
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: the big names you would imagine Buddha, Baker, Kyler, Murray,

563
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 1: JJ Watt right going to get attention. But some of those,

564
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: you know, maybe players that you would be surprised to

565
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: learn more about and be really intrigued by their stories.

566
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: I've been thinking, and I think my answer would come

567
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: down to, like, you know, I think a Rondel Moore,

568
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: you know, a tweezing the wide receiver's room. I think

569
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: the pair of Marco Wilson and Isaiah Simmons would be

570
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: really great. And I also think DJ Humphreys would be

571
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: a really great person like personality wise. I just feel

572
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: like every time we'd love to yeah, I'm sure. I

573
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 1: feel like every time we've talked to DJ last season,

574
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 1: at least when I was here, was he always had

575
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 1: something funny to talk about with the media. Who do

576
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 1: you think is gonna like be a surprise superstar on

577
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks. Well, besides the names you mentioned, I mean,

578
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,360
Speaker 1: you know guys, maybe Isaiah Simmons or somebody that maybe

579
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,479
Speaker 1: he's on the offensive line, I mean Calvin Beecham has

580
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: a lot of side of interest. He's a very interesting guy.

581
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: Rodney Hudson, we don't hear a lot from see. I

582
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: think the difference in Hard Knocks is they find that

583
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: undrafted free agent and you know, they go back to

584
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 1: the hotel room. He's waiting for the phone ring and

585
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: the phone rings and then they tell him he's going

586
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 1: to practice squad here. We're going to be in mid season,

587
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: So I think Hop's going to be one of the

588
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: stars because just because of his personality, he has a

589
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: lot of outside interest and he's a guy that you know,

590
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: likes being in front of the camera. So I think

591
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 1: Hop will have a big part. Yeah, Head coach Cliff

592
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: Kingsbury agreed with you when he was asked about that too.

593
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: If they could go film Hop while he's suspended, that

594
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: would be the best TV ever. But I don't think

595
00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: they can. Yeah, I don't know. Like I said, I

596
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of kind of really high character

597
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: men that we get to work with, whether it's staff, coaches,

598
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 1: players every day, So just to kind of tell some

599
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: of their background stories and get to know them on

600
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: that level, I think it'll be great for our fans.

601
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: Drew who you think is going to stand out? Aaron

602
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: and Brewer brew Dog will steal the show about special

603
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: teams guys, this guy those three together for sure, Oh

604
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 1: my gosh. You know that's a great call because I mean,

605
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: I think if you add up all their years, I

606
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: think they had the most ten year old for sure

607
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: entire national football Even Matt Prater's got personality. Andy Lee

608
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: Bruce kind of funny once you give him to start talking. Yeah, yeah,

609
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: I like that. I think too, it'll be fun to

610
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 1: get to know the coaching staff that that's really neat

611
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: as well, as you know, these coaches work so hard.

612
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: It's not to take away, but it's more than just

613
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury, Evans, Joseph and you know, Jeff Rogers doing

614
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: all this work. So I think that's really exciting too

615
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: to get to see these coaches and you know, let

616
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: them have their flowers as well. Well. I think Sean

617
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: Jefferson has personality, Sean Coogler, I mean, you know, Billy

618
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: Davis and Charlie Boland that I like, the defensive backs coaches,

619
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 1: even Matt Burke. So yeah, I do think we're going

620
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: to see more from the coaching staff just with the

621
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: daily la lifestyle is when it comes to putting a

622
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: game plan together. And maybe we'll get to see a

623
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: less introverted version of Cliff Kingsbury. All players love, you know,

624
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 1: say he's so fun and jokes around with them. I'm

625
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: hoping we get to see a little more of that

626
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: as well. Red Sea. Episode thirty of the Dave Pash

Speaker 1: tight end Trey McBride miked up at practice. You can

641
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 1: hear the full version see it with video on Cardinals

642
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: YouTube channel YouTube dot com slash slash Acy Cardinals. As

643
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: we welcome you back into the Red Sea Report, presented

644
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: by Sea Geek alongside Mike Jarecki and Drew Stanton. I'm

645
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: Danny Sarak. It's been really interesting to see Trey McBride

646
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: practice at you know, rookie manicamp, through the videos that

647
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: we posted on our social media and website and then

648
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: being out at OTAs on Monday because he was the

649
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: second round draft pick, but he was the highest draft

650
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: pick for the Cardinals this year after trading out of

651
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: the first round to get Hollywood Brown from the Ravens.

652
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: And you can tell he is stepping in into that

653
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 1: leadership role as the highest drafted rookie, which usually obviously

654
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: goes to that first rounder, but he seems to be

655
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: filling that role amongst the rookies quite nicely. Yeah. And

656
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: I've always thought, you know, whoever's in your draft class,

657
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: you're you're attached for your entire career, and you know,

658
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: you look at Colin Murray's draft class, and you know,

659
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: when you look at Byron Murphy and then Zach Allen,

660
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: I mean, these guys are attached, so you come in

661
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: with the class and you know a lot of those

662
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,719
Speaker 1: guys are on defense, only a couple are on offense.

663
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 1: But he's gonna learn a ton from guy like zach

664
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: Ertz and Steve Hyden's a really good coach. I really

665
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: like the staff on both sides of the ball and

666
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 1: special especially on special teams. So yeah, I mean, I

667
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,479
Speaker 1: don't know what the expectations are early on. I mean,

668
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: you know he's gonna have the block at some point

669
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: in time. Craig didn't think he was as big as

670
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: zach Ertz, and I just said give him a little time.

671
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: He's going to fill out obviously when they get on

672
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 1: a meal plan and he started working out with Buddy Morris.

673
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: But he looks the part, I can tell you that.

674
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: And he catches the ball very fluid, He's turning up

675
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: the field. He's got soft hands. Now you're not this

676
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: is the NFL though, that's not Colorado State, So the

677
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: competition is going to be a lot higher when he

678
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: goes playing these games in the upcoming season. Probably no

679
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,479
Speaker 1: better tight end to learn from and be a sponge

680
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: around than zach Ertz. Drew from your experience being a

681
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 1: mentor or being mentored. You know this was coming up,

682
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: especially the last couple of weeks, you know, out in

683
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 1: time to see with Ryan Tannehill. How do you view

684
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: it now, I should say, compared to maybe how when

685
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,719
Speaker 1: you were a player, the idea of a veteran mentoring

686
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: a younger player, because you obviously want to put the

687
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: team in the best position to where if somebody has

688
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: to step up, they're capable. But at the end of

689
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: the day, everybody's still fine to keep your spot on

690
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: the roster. Right, Yeah, well, I think there it's a

691
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: case by case scenario, and it also depends on the

692
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: person on both sides. Right. For me, once I was

693
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: a young guy that was trying to learn or go

694
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: pick people's brains like John Kitten at Dan Orlovsky, I

695
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: feel like I could learned from anybody around me. And

696
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: I still felt like that later on in my career.

697
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: I was learning from younger guys. I mean I learned

698
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: stuff from Andrew Luck from I mean Matthews only two

699
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: years younger than me, but from Matthew Stafford, even Baker Mayfield.

700
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: I'm constantly learning because you have to evolve. You can't

701
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: stay stagnant within that and saying that once you kind

702
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: of make that transformation and you become a quote unquote vet,

703
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: you have this knowledge to give away and the guys

704
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: that are willing to absorb it, that's where you see

705
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: that jump made. And so I was always willing to

706
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: pro offer information. I was always willing to help young

707
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: guys out because I was a young guy that was

708
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: trying to learn. And the same facet, you can try

709
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: and help some young guys, but if they're not willing

710
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: to learn it, if they're not absorbing, if they're not

711
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: applying it, then it becomes a whole different scenario of well,

712
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: I'm not going to waste my time trying to do

713
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: this because they're not even willing to do it on

714
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: their own end. And so I think there's a balance

715
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: within it. You know, there was much to do about

716
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: the Ryan Tannehill situation from my personal perspective, right, I

717
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: understand that Ryan wasn't aware they're going to draft a quarterback.

718
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: He was a later round pick, he wasn't a first

719
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: overall pick, he wasn't a first round pick. He's not

720
00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: a guy that's going to come in and threaten his

721
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: job right away. So I think you know with his

722
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: comments that he's come out with about saying that and

723
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: knowing Ryan a little bit that I do, it could

724
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: have been misconstrued because I don't think he was coming

725
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: out and saying, hey, you know what, he's on his own,

726
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: I'm leaving him for the wolves. That's not that by

727
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: any case of the matter. And I think that he's

728
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: trying to clarify it now. But you also don't have

729
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: to take back what you don't say. So if Ryan

730
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: had just chose his words a little bit more eloquently

731
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: and said, hey, like, I'm focused on being the starting quarterback,

732
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: and I think that the organization tried to surround him

733
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: with that without really indicting him on it and indirectly saying, look,

734
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: Ryan's our starter. This is the case. But there's so

735
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: much knowledge for a guy like zach Ertz. It's a

736
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl guy that's been there, done that. You know,

737
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: everybody could learn from him, not just the tight end,

738
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: any young guy that's been around it that wants to

739
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 1: learn and see it from that lens. I think is

740
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: so important because these young guys, you want to speed

741
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: up that learning curve. And when I got to Cleveland,

742
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: I didn't know Baker besides some of the stuff that

743
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: I've seen online or anything like that, and I just

744
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: try to have him let his guard down and said,

745
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: I am here to help you. The sole reason I

746
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: was here, Tyrod's the starter, You're the backup right now,

747
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: I'm the thirst ring guy, and I'm literally here to

748
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: just help you and help this team be as good

749
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: as they can be, to help get them on a

750
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,800
Speaker 1: winning streak. And so I think that helped to cultivate

751
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: the trust and that respect that we had for each other,

752
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: because it's got to be a two way street. Tannehill

753
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: is at OTA's and he entrusted the media quote. As

754
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 1: soon as things blew up, he readled to Malik Willis

755
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: and said he would be a great teammate to him.

756
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: So it looks like everyone's on the same page. And

757
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: obviously he's at OTA's there in Nashville. You know. One

758
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: of the things that zach Ertz said, when you know,

759
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: I asked him what it was like to be a

760
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: rookie and he had the benefit of working with Brince

761
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: Selik and James Casey, and he said that they really

762
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: Casey would watch film at four am, and Sellek was

763
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: another guy so he you know, he knows what it's

764
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 1: like to be that guy when you're walking into a

765
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: new team. And you know, he mentioned Hollywood Brown. He

766
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: said he hasn't played with a guy like that probably before,

767
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 1: sends to Shawn Jackson. So he's really excited about just

768
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: having another weapon on the field. But Zach, Zach, you're

769
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: right the way he practices. If you're anybody and you're thinking, man,

770
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: this guy just signed a three year contract and he

771
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 1: and he ad meant it yestually, I'm in a different

772
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: situation here. I just signed a three year I'm all in,

773
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 1: I want to be here, and that makes total sense.

774
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 1: But you watch the way he practices, and if you're

775
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: you're figuring, well, how many more reps you gotta get?

776
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: And this guy just got paid and he wants more.

777
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: He knows they drafted a Titan in the second round,

778
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: but he's he's you know again, I think you should

779
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: be a captain this year. I don't know if the

780
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 1: Cardinal's ever had a tight end as captain, but the

781
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: way he practices, hopefully you can, you know, wear off.

782
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: And some of these young guys are thinking, that's where

783
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: it's like to be a pro this is the time

784
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 1: of the off season where it's all about learning and

785
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 1: asking those questions, because by the time you get to

786
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: training camp, you need to know the playbook and you

787
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: need to know what's going on. So that's why this

788
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: is what Buddha Baker likes to tell the rookies at

789
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: this point in the off season while they're working. When

790
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: training camp starts, there's no more I didn't know what

791
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: a overfront was, or I didn't know what an underfront

792
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: it is. It's like, you gotta know, just like the starters.

793
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 1: So that's what I like to tell them right now

794
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: so they understand that there's no slacking once we get

795
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,280
Speaker 1: to the camp, like I should know this whole playbook

796
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: and if I don't, I'm wrong because I had the resources,

797
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 1: I had the coaches, I had the players to ask

798
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 1: questions and here a professional. At the end of the day,

799
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 1: it's not just about learning if you're a rookie from

800
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: veterans in your position group, it's also about learning from

801
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: the players you're lining up against, which is why when

802
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: our PACLVC talked to rookie offensive lineman Lucida Smith about

803
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 1: a potential camp matchup with JJ Watt, This is what

804
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 1: he had to say. If you had the thought, there's

805
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: gonna be an old line, d line drill, full pads,

806
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 1: full contact, and there's a chance that I could line

807
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: up in a three point stance and I'm staring straight

808
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 1: across at ninety nine JJ Watt. That's gonna be a

809
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: welcome to the NFL moment, won't it? Yes, I think

810
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 1: it will be. I'm anna pray that it won't. I'm

811
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: an pray that, you know, he doesn't teach me a lesson.

812
00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna definitely try to hold my own. I mean,

813
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: the guys definitely a legend, undoubtedly a Hall of Famer,

814
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: So I mean, I hope he can teach me a

815
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 1: thing and too from that rep or those reps I'll

816
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 1: take against him. But it's definitely like I'm gonna be

817
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: staying across looking like, oh my god, I'm about to

818
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,399
Speaker 1: take a rep from JJ Wise. It's gonna be crazy. Drew.

819
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: What was your welcome to the NFL moment? Early on?

820
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: Maybe training camp as a rookie. Oh, I don't know.

821
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: I mean there was a couple of when I got

822
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: out there because so I was in Calvin's draft class.

823
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,320
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson and he was the first overall or the

824
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: second overall pick with the first round pick. I was

825
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,880
Speaker 1: the second round pick. So we always room together and

826
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: I just remember seeing him of just like this is

827
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: what NFI receivers look like. And I'm like, but the

828
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: nicest guy ever, so athletic warren, rookie man of camp,

829
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to throw every single ball to him,

830
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 1: right Like, I was like, this guy is amazing, But

831
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was that. So I had

832
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 1: Mike Martz as an offensive coordinator and he was very

833
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 1: hard on quarterbacks. It's it's well documented. And one time

834
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: he like whispered the play to me on purpose, and

835
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: I finally heard him like laugh at one of the

836
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 1: guys because he left his mic on he It was like,

837
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: hey see if he can figure this out. And I

838
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: was like, this guy is purposely sabotaging me to see

839
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna be able to do I was like,

840
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: I was mortified, and I was like I stepped out

841
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: of the huddle. I was like, hey, did anybody hear

842
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: what he said? Because his play calls were so long.

843
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 1: I mean it was like a paragraph and I couldn't

844
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: learn it, Like I was trying everything I could to

845
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: do it. And luckily Mike Furry, who is a wide

846
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: receiver coach or was for the Chicago Bears last year.

847
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 1: Awesome guy. He was with Mike Martz with the Rams.

848
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: He's essentially what Cooper Cup was so smart. He was like,

849
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: oh yeah, he called this point and I was like, oh,

850
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: thank you. So we broke the huddle and I was like, okay,

851
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: So that's a nice veteran. He's forever on my good

852
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: list of Christmas cards. So you know, I think that

853
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: that's the way that it goes. But as far as

854
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: you know, that's the NFL. Right, you're gonna line up

855
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 1: against j J. Watt, But I'd be more concerned about

856
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 1: lining up against Aaron Donald to come game time because

857
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 1: that's when it really counts. M J. Looking at the rookies,

858
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,280
Speaker 1: whether it's on offense or defense, what is a matchup

859
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: you're looking forward to maybe throughout the rest of the

860
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 1: off season into training camp. I want to see these

861
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: two guards, they're both three hundred fourteen pounds Smith and Sanders,

862
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: and I want to see them go against some one

863
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: on one protection. I want to see, you know, those

864
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 1: young cornerbacks Um, you know, you look at Matthew he's

865
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 1: six two one ninety five. I want to see how

866
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: he guards some of the receivers. So I'd like to

867
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: see one on one matchups. And I think they're going

868
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: to get that when they face the Titans in the

869
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: obviously joint practices. Yeah, and it's gonna be fun to

870
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 1: see Hollywood Brown out there right maybe against Marco or

871
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 1: Byron or Jeff Gladdie knew his cornerback for the Cardinals. Yeah,

872
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: I think it right now if they you look at

873
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,399
Speaker 1: the top three corners, is probably Murphy Gladney and then

874
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: throwing Marco Wilson. Cardinals season is quickly approaching home opener

Speaker 1: right into the end zone. Todd Kansas City Daryl Williams,

889
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,760
Speaker 1: the call from Chiefs Radio Network on running back Darryl Williams,

890
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: whom the Cardinals are reportedly signing, who was with Kansas

891
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,479
Speaker 1: City last season. Welcome back into the Red Sea Report

892
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: presented by Sea Geek alongside Mike Dreckie and Drew stan

893
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: I'm Danny Siak. James Connor is the starting running back.

894
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: We've known that for the Cardinals. They brought him back

895
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: in free agency. However, they lost Chase Edmonds and there

896
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 1: was a tandem duo for the two of them last season.

897
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: Edmonds is now with the Miami Dolphins, so it's not

898
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 1: an entire surprise that the Cardinals reportedly are going to

899
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: bring in another running back. Williams last year with the

900
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs had five hundred and eighty eight rushing yards,

901
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: six rushing touchdowns, forty seven catches for four hundred and

902
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: fifty two yards with two receiving touchdowns and zero fumbles,

903
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 1: and reportedly from Jordan Schultz. Mahomes has vouched for Darryl Williams.

904
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 1: Why do you think this would be a good fit

905
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 1: to bring in somebody to pair up with James Connor

906
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,879
Speaker 1: and Jenny Well, he visited a couple of weeks ago,

907
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 1: and you know, as a veteran guy, you want to

908
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 1: get in camp, and so you know, obviously his asking

909
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 1: price was a certain number and then they try to

910
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: come to an agreement. But to me, this is a

911
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 1: great one two punch. I mean, you know, James Connor

912
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: is going to be the bell cow, but you know,

913
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 1: five eleven, two hundred and nineteen pounds, you know he's

914
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 1: gonna go chance against his team in the Chiefs. And

915
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 1: the fact that Patrick Mahomes vouched for him. We know

916
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: he has a relationship with Cliff Kingsbury. So this makes

917
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. And you start looking at that

918
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: running back position. You know, if you're a third or

919
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: four string, you're gonna have to play on special teams.

920
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 1: And so now Jonathan Wards disposers teams guy. You know

921
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: they drafted Keyante Ingram in the sixth round and then

922
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 1: you got Samuel's so Eno Benjamin. So it's going to

923
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 1: be interesting. But this is a great one two punch,

924
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,479
Speaker 1: and this is what they wanted to do because again,

925
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: I think they're going to run the football in those

926
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: first six games just to take pressure off the defense

927
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 1: and obviously try to open up the passing game. Based

928
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 1: on how this team performed when the run game was

929
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 1: successful last season, drew in the moves they made to

930
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: draft Kyanta ingram Into reportedly now signed Darryl Williams. What

931
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: does that tell you about how they view the running

932
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: game and how that affects the success of the overall offense. Well,

933
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: I think the room in general, right, you always want

934
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: to add as much talented the room as possible. And

935
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,720
Speaker 1: you get a guy like this that's on the street

936
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: now and the dust to settle from free agency and

937
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 1: from the draft, and strategically he's looking to see if

938
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: this is a good fit. It's obviously a good fit

939
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 1: for the Cardinal So to get a player of his

940
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 1: caliber at this point in time is huge. His skill

941
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,320
Speaker 1: set speaks for itself. I think the receiving yards coupled

942
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,879
Speaker 1: with the yards on the ground, they can match very well,

943
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 1: and you talked about it with losing somebody like Chase Edmonds.

944
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,320
Speaker 1: I love the idea of getting them both on the

945
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: field together. You get both those top two running backs

946
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: on the field, and you see what defensive personnel shows up,

947
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: and you can do different things, much like with twelve personnel,

948
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 1: two tight on the Titans on the field, however, you

949
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 1: can establish a run game that's going to matter and

950
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 1: be meaningful and do it different ways. And you know

951
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 1: Cliff's very good at strategically finding good matchups. But then

952
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: within that run game, what that looks like. Being able

953
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: to free release backs out of the backfield, being able

954
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,919
Speaker 1: to line them up in different spots, all these things.

955
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: This running back in particular has a skill set that

956
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: leads to a slot type of wide receiver. Anyway, So again,

957
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: knowing that DeAndre is going to be out for the

958
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: time period he's out, this is a playmaker. You get

959
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands in any facet and he's

960
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: shown on tape in NFL games and meaningful games for

961
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs that he can be a playmaker.

962
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 1: Something to keep in mind you, Andrew Hopkins is spend

963
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 1: it the first six games so that running game might

964
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 1: be all the more important as this team has to adjust.

965
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 1: I fully believe that, and it's going to start with

966
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: the offensive line. Now you still have Kyler Murray. He

967
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 1: could be another weapon in design runs, but Clearius starts

968
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:15,800
Speaker 1: up front, and if they can run the football and

969
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 1: get a lead and late in the fourth quarter, all

970
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you've got multiple backs that can run

971
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: the clock out. There's more OTA's coming next couple of weeks,

972
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 1: so we'll see who's there. Who maybe's gonna wait for

973
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 1: that mandatory mini camp. June first through the third is

974
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: the next round of voluntary OTAs with veterans and rookies,

975
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:40,279
Speaker 1: followed by June sixth through June ninth, that mini camp

976
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: where Cliff Kingsbury said he expects to see Kyler Murray

977
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: June fourteenth through the sixteenth. We're gonna have coverage of
