All smiles, all business, 0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:43.240 some poise, some polish, and certainly a lot of professionalism 0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:46.000 for a young man who spent three years at USC 0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.960 and becomes the Eagle's number one draft pick in twenty 0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.920 and fifteen. He arrived at Novacare, made the tour, walked 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:56.960 the building, met some key people, including of course, head 0:00:56.960 --> 0:01:01.520 coach Ship Kelly reacquainted there and has a time with 0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:04.800 the media as well. And we will meet Nelson Agilar 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:06.720 in just a little bit, a little bit more in depth. 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:09.520 Dave Spider, Eagles Insider, along with Merril Reese, the voice 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:12.960 of the Philadelphia Eagles. It's Night two of the twenty 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:15.720 and fifteen NFL Draft, and we've got you covered here. 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:18.520 Welcome to Eagles Drafts Central, presented by Dietson Watson, Merrill. 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.000 Good evening to you. Good evening, Dave, and it's been 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:24.039 a fun day. Yeah, meeting Nelson Agilar, and you know 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.400 you'd have to say that. Jeremy Macklin moves on and 0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.920 they bring in another very talented receiver and they replace 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:35.080 a very intelligent, articulate person with another guy who is 0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:37.679 just eloquent in his speech and matters. Yeah, he has 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:41.880 really really showed great maturity. Certainly, the moment is not 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.680 too large for Nelson Agilar, who, by the way, will 0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:48.680 wear number seventeen in twenty fifteen. Last one, of course, 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:51.680 by how the great Harold Carmichael is that the all 0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:55.040 time leading receiver in Eagles history. Well, I guess I 0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:57.160 can throw out the fact that I used to say 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:00.640 Harold Carmichael the last Eagle to ever wear a You 0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:02.320 see this, and they see how we break news here 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:05.960 on Eagles Draft Central, presented by Deeton Watson. It's Night two, 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.880 it's rounds two and three. We're live right now until 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:10.720 the draft begins at seven o'clock, and then we'll be 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:14.440 live during the Eagles picks and after the picks, including 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:17.560 the Chip Kelly press conference. We've got Beau Wolf and 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:21.680 Greg Cosell over in the fan cave. Hello, boys. We 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.200 look forward to hearing from you guys tonight, and it 0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:26.840 should be a very interesting evening. I think this is 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.840 really the nuts and bolts of the draft. You really 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.600 can find some gems in the draft and rounds two 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.120 and three. Meryl, let's talk about what's ahead. Some of 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.800 the players that you may hope become Philadelphia Eagles too, Well, 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.080 there are a couple, Dave, and I think you look 0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:44.880 at needs and the two needs. Whether it's one goes 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.320 first or second, it doesn't matter. But I think they 0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:50.840 have to address their defensive backfield, the secondary beat it 0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:54.800 a corner or a safety, and they must address the 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.960 offensive line. So those are the needs. A couple of 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:02.240 interesting names that are still out there. One is Eric Rowe, 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.920 is a corner or a safety out of Utah. He's 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:08.680 over six feet, about two hundred and eight pounds. He 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.919 is a very, very talented player. Now, the other name 0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:14.800 that was not drafted yesterday, who was considered to be 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.799 the top safety but maybe not a perfect fifth the 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:21.919 Eagles was landing columns from Alabama, but he is still 0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:24.440 out there. Was not taken in round one, and maybe 0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:27.760 in round two if Rowe is gone, he could be 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:32.040 a target. The offensive lineman who I think would generate 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:35.160 a lot of interest in these here parts is the 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.720 former Oregon Duck and that is Jake Fisher. He in 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:41.600 the indepinion of some people could have been a first 0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:44.680 round draft pick, and he is still out there as 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:47.880 we head into round two, as is t J. Clemens, 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.760 a tackle from Pitt who could also move inside. There 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:55.200 was a name l Collins, and we know what's happened there. 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:58.680 He was considered a person of quote interest in a 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:03.200 murder case in Louis, Yanna, and it's a high risk proposition. 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.520 I'm not saying there's any guilt there, but right now 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:11.280 that it's enough cloudy, murky situation that a team has 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:13.720 got to be very, very careful if they go on 0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:16.520 that direction, right lall Collins has said that if he 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.440 is not drafted tonight rounds two or three, he will 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:22.320 not sign a contract and will enter the two thousand 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:25.760 and sixteen NFL Draft. So that is something certainly that 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:27.920 fareth watching. We're also going to keep our eyes on 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:32.000 the way Chip Kelly kind of conducts himself tonight last night. 0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:35.240 Let the draft come to him. Will he be so 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:38.360 patient in the second night of this draft, and will 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:40.839 there be any veterans on the move? A lot to 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:43.560 look forward to when the draft begins at seven pm. 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:47.000 Already today, we've met Nelson Aguilar in person. He held 0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:50.040 a press conference with the Philadelphia media. Here's some of 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:53.719 the best of Nelson Aguilar his first face to face 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.960 with the Philadelphia media. It always starts with the people. 0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:00.600 I mean, we have truly special people here, and staff 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.320 and the players that they bring into this organization. And 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:05.080 then you know, even the guys that work, you know, 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:07.719 beneath the coaches. They're all really good people, and I 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:10.359 felt like that's where I wanted to be. Honestly, it 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:12.680 was something I wanted for myself. I mean, I know 0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:14.839 they're gonna do what they have to do in terms 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.719 of evaluating everybody, but when I got here, I kind 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.440 of evaluated the way they did things, and I knew 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:22.320 if I ended up in an organization, I wanted to 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:25.200 resemble the way they do things. I felt like they're 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.200 really genuine people. You know, starts with the head coach 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.080 and Coach Bickle, receiver coach. You know, all those guys 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:34.360 are truly special people and really genuine with the conversation, 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.680 how he went about meetings. You know, just every day 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:39.640 felt good. And when Coach Bickle came down to work 0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:42.200 me out first, you know, we just got better. You know, 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.680 it wasn't about me trying to show that I have 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:46.560 all the answers. It was about him, you know, trying 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.400 to put me through some movements and meet growing. There's 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:51.920 a lot of excitement. Those guys are truly special people, 0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:54.200 just like players, you know, for them to think enough 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.880 of me to reach out to me and very genuine 0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.280 of them. And you know, they both made it very 0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:02.839 clear that's Josh and Matthews. They made it very clear 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:04.840 that you know, they want me to come in and 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.680 work with them and just get after it. And I 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:09.680 think I'm in a blessed position to have those two 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:12.800 guys with that type of mindset. You know. Now, you know, 0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:15.320 you know, you're in a comfortable position because this is 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.520 the type person you are and you're dealing with people 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.080 with similar you know, wants. I got a chance to 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:22.320 talk with Barkley for a little bit face to face. 0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:26.440 I got a text from Mark and Sam. Those definitely 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:30.000 great people. I mean I knew Barkeley since freshman year 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.840 at USC and I think those other two guys are 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:36.400 truly special people. Also, it gives me another opportunity to 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.559 affect the game. You know, three phases of football, offense, defense, 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.120 and special teams. You know, if I have an opportunity 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.960 to affect, you know, special teams outcome, then it's always 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.000 gonna be good. A remarkably impressive young man. I think 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.839 we'd all agree with that, just as held himself with 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.039 such poise in this well twenty hours since he's been 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:58.400 a Philadelphia He hasn't met Harold Carmichael yet, but he's 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:00.880 the kind of young man. But Harold carr Michael would 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.800 be very proud to have. We're number seven, yeah, and 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:05.760 we will find out a little bit more examine how 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.479 he fits into this Chip Kelly offensive scheme. When the 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:11.800 fan cave section will go over there and talk to 0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:14.640 Bow and to Greg, We're also going to take a 0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:18.000 little trip down memory lane. Last year's second round produced 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.840 Jordan Matthews, and Eagles wide receiver came in and had 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.960 maybe the best rookie season for an Eagles wide receiver 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.600 in franchise history. But when we return to Eagles Draft 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:30.680 Central presented by Deeton Watson, I had a chance to 0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:33.600 sit down with Nelson Aguilar trying to take a different approach. 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.640 Let's try to get to meet the newest Philadelphia Eagle 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:46.120 when we return in just one moment, we welcome you. 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.360 We did the studio here at the Novicare Complex. Eagles 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.600 insider Dave Spidero with Eagles number one draft pick wide 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:55.960 receiver Nelson Aguilar, who's had just a whirlwind last twenty 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:58.480 four plus hours. Really, it's been months and months and 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.040 months leading up to this. So my goal here, Nelson, 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:03.400 because you've answered so many questions just to ask you 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:07.120 questions to get to know Nelson Aguilar. You're ready, Yeah, 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:10.360 all right, So let's talk about USC and your favorite 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:14.080 class in USC on your communications major. A very interesting classes, 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:17.160 great communications school. What'd you like the most about school? 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:19.000 And tell me what you like the most, what class 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:22.520 in particular, and why started off the most. The thing 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.280 that you know, I like the most about school was 0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.640 the fact that you know, in a major like communication, 0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.680 you would get different types of people. There wasn't just 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:35.360 athlete piled classes. You got you know, the people in 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.199 the Greek life. You got your everyday students. You know, 0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:40.360 you got some of the brighter kids in the campus 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.439 all in one class. You know, in terms of big 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:46.640 lectures where there was open conversation, got to hear the 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:49.680 way other people thought, and you know, it was pretty cool. 0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.360 In your life. Have you been one who's gone around 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:54.839 in clicks? Are you one of the jocks, one of 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:58.199 the brains? Are you one of the music What kind 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:00.280 of clicks have you moved around with in your life? 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:03.400 A melting pot. I like to deal with everybody. I 0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:05.840 like to pick everybody's brains. I love to have multiple 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.479 experiences if you had to. And maybe you've never experienced 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.439 a snowstorm living and growing up in first in Nigeria, 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:15.400 then in Florida, and then elt to California. Have you 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:17.679 ever been in a snowstorm? And the way I have not? Oh, 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:19.880 we've got something to look forward to this winter. So 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.360 my question is going to be better day on the 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:26.600 beach or in the mountains. It's clearly on the beach. Yeah, Okay, 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:30.880 you'll find out. I haven't experienced the mountains. Okay, let's 0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:33.240 talk about this. Your opinion of social media. You're a 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:35.960 bright guy, Yeah, a young, bright guy. I think social 0:09:36.000 --> 0:09:38.800 media is a good platform for people to do some 0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:42.240 positive things. But I also feel like it's an opportunity 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:47.880 for people to kind of humble, humble some people that 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:50.440 are put on a you know, on a higher pedal 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:53.480 stone away. I mean, in reality, you should already hope 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:56.560 with yourself as a player, So you shouldn't feel like 0:09:56.600 --> 0:10:00.960 anyone's attacking you because they're saying certain things. But you know, 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:03.040 it could be used as an advantage, but it can 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:05.280 also hurt some people if they use it own. Is 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:10.160 it tough being an athlete knowing that fans can have 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:14.960 this avenue that can be very damaging to people. I mean, 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.400 it does what it has to do for me. I 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:19.679 know who I am as a person. I know who 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:23.240 I am as a player, and I make few promises 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:28.880 about you know, statistics or you know, expectations. I just 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.920 I control the controllable, and I feel like I always 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:34.640 want people to judge me off of controllable things, like 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:38.960 my effort and preparation. Nelson, where does that confidence that 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:41.000 maturity come from? Is that the way you were raised? 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:43.559 That's why I was raised. And also, you know, my 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.520 high school football coach kind of placed into me early 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:49.560 making a transition from running back to wide receiver. How 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:53.600 that happened? It? Was it something that you were reluctantly done? 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.480 I know you were a star, five star recruit out 0:10:56.480 --> 0:10:59.559 of Tampa as a running back. Was it difficult to 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.400 make the trans just a wide receiver? It was another 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.320 way to get the ball in your hands, you know. 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.320 And I felt like it was great for me in 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:10.880 terms of the business aspect of the game of football, 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:14.480 because I mean, my body wasn't developing to too much 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:17.600 as a running back body, so you know, I just 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:20.359 had to make the most of what my body already, 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:23.959 you know, my body structure. Okay, let's talk about USC 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:27.880 and the it's a huge or it's a great program. 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:30.240 It's one of the most story programs in college football. 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:34.400 Describe the feeling you had on a Saturday walking onto 0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:38.120 the field with the crowd, with the uniform on how 0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:41.800 special was it for you second to none walking into 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.199 the college sum the night before a game, and the 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:46.680 things we did and how we went about our business. 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.400 You know, we had special things that we did on 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:52.560 a Friday before walked through, you know, and there are 0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:55.800 different coaches that did different things. One in particular is 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:58.120 when you know when Ed ozerl was, you know he 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:01.120 was there, he did a special thing on a Thursday 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:04.360 afternoon before walk through. It just made you realize that, 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:06.400 you know, this is gonna be a special weekend. And 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:08.960 then when you walk into the coliseum, you know, you 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:11.360 see so many people think enough for you to be 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.160 there and to chair for you and deals like that. 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:19.520 It's it's surreal in many ways, and I felt like 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.079 I was spoiled. I was very spoiled to have that, 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:24.360 you know, And I only asked that, you know, I 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.920 continue to have something very similar your first thought, that 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.920 you can remember that you might possibly make it to 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:35.880 the NFL. Do you remember what age you were? I mean, 0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:41.320 for me, it was about you know, giving it my all. 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:45.280 You know, you know they always say, you know, fight 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:48.040 or die trying. You know, just that that was me. 0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.840 I just I would go give it everything I got 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:52.720 and you know, if it was meant to be, it 0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:55.800 would be. And I felt like, you know, God favored me, 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:58.360 and many people favored me to give me this opportunity. 0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:02.480 First autograph you signed, how old were you don't remember? 0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:05.760 It was? How long ago? Yeah? Is it special for 0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:08.000 you still? When people ask you for an autograph, it 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:10.360 comes down to people caring about you as a person. 0:13:11.000 --> 0:13:13.400 You know, it's one thing to be a good football player, 0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:16.520 but no one wants to have, you know, a piece 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:21.440 of something to remind them of a bad person. So 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.320 I hope people ask from my autograph because they know 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:28.280 that I'm truly a good person outside of being a 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:30.640 football player. That's made a couple of plays. The things 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.000 that you and I've talked about here in the day 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.800 that we've known each other, you really do bring it 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:39.800 back to being genuine with people, building relationships with people. 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.640 That's very important to you, beyond the football part of it. 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:44.920 It's important for you to be part of that kind 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.400 of family here, isn't it. Let's put us all about 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.319 I talk about controllable factors, you know, outside of the 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:54.360 things you can control in terms of football preparation. Every 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:56.160 day you're given a choice to be a good person, 0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:58.400 and I feel like if you were to grade me 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.520 on that, then I do a good job at that. 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:03.959 Football starts this in a couple of days here. How 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.480 excited are you to get on the field and start 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.040 to dig into the playbook? Are you a playbook kind 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:11.920 of guy? I love the playbook. I feel like that's 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:15.680 a controlled by aspect. You know, you get an opportunity 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.520 to soak in a lot of knowledge. You know, just 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.280 to be in the right place at the right time. 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:22.640 You know, it's not even about making a catch. It's 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.040 not even about being the fastest guy. It's about knowing 0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:27.800 where to be. Yeah, and I want to always be 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.240 the guy that knows where to be. And what kind 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:33.400 of indication is Chip giving you anything at all, any 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:36.480 ideas what you might do here?

One year ago, Jordan Matthews was just a 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:51.160 player from the fine football institution that is Vanderbilt and 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:53.640 looking for a home in the NFL. We now know 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.080 that he's a Philadelphia Eagle. Had a terrific year last year, 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:59.280 sixty seven catches eight hundred and seventy two yards eight 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:03.320 touchdown as well. Prior to the Eagles selecting Matthews, the 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:07.040 NFL network sent a camera crew to follow him around 0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:10.240 as he prepped for his big moment on stage. So 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.680 I'm not dressed yet because I still got a couple 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:15.080 of hours before, you know, no different than games. I 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:17.360 don't like to get two jacked up for two raids 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:19.800 too early, so I like to you know, start getting 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:21.920 in the floor of things, you know, closer to game time. 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.000 So if I'm an approach today like a game, then 0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.320 I'm gonna start getting ready, you know, closer time comes, 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:28.840 I want to be too flashy because I know a 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:30.520 lot of guys are gonna be trying their hardest and 0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:33.480 everything I want to be go for a more classy looks. 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:37.880 Got my soup Taylor from the Great Guys That top's 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:40.520 the best folk. My man Raymond hooked me up one 0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:45.440 of my frat birds inside Red outside Navy, So it's 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:47.960 real solo right here. But what I'm really trying to 0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:49.880 do is like make the accessories kind of you know, 0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:54.800 jump off the outfit look on the inside right there 0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:59.880 exclusively Taylor Jay Matthews. So being a member of cop 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.640 A Sour fraternity, you know, our cours are crimson and cream. 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.239 My hat to make sure I feel a little bit 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:05.720 of red. And at the same time, I wanted to 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:07.840 give a shout out to the brothers, so this kind 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:11.119 of for them and everything.

So we're gonna kind of We're gonna 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:28.880 kind of show off for our people in that aspect. 0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:33.040 My boy Kanye saying the song once, have you ever 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:35.840 seen shoes with our shoes string? So had to give 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:37.440 a shout out to him. You know, I didn't want 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:41.399 to go regular not feel good. I mean, it's just 0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:43.960 really a stepping stone to the next level. Once you 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:45.840 get in an NFL locker room, nobody cares when you 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.560 got drafted what around. It's aught about what you do 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:50.560 on the food and how you produce. So you know, 0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:51.960 it's definitely gonna be a great day for me and 0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:53.760 my family. At the same time, I'm just looking forward 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:56.679 to playing again. Well, we know how Jordan Matthews fit 0:17:56.760 --> 0:17:59.400 into the offense as a rookie pretty darn well. Yeah, 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:03.360 and very very comfortable with the media and mature beyonds hears. Yeah, 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:06.719 he really is something special. We wonder how special Nelson 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:09.880 Aguilar will be in this Chip Kelly offense. We toss 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:13.160 it now to our fan cave Bo Wolf and Greg 0:18:13.240 --> 0:18:16.840 Cosell take a look at that. Well, thank you, Dave 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:18.760 and Greg and I are back in our layer here 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:20.640 in the film room and we're gonna take a look 0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:22.920 at some of the ways the Eagles will utilize first 0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:26.960 round pick Nelson Aguilar in miss offense. And Greg chip 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:29.680 Kelly does such a good job in terms of scheming 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:32.399 wide receivers into space. Let's take a look at a 0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:34.399 few of the ways that he does. That will start 0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:36.520 with the game last season against the Houston Texans. And 0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:39.240 the player to focus on here is the deep safety 0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:41.960 and how Nick Foles is able to read him to 0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:44.840 find out which receiver to go to exactly bo And normally, 0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:46.359 if you want to get the ball deep and we 0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:47.960 can just keep it here for a sack, if you 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.199 want to get the ball deep, you somehow have to 0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.360 control and be to safety. And they do it here 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:55.080 with a concept called a three level stretch. And it's 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:58.480 too one side of the field. So here's Macklin, he's 0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:01.879 going to run a vertical route. Here's Matthews. He's actually 0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:04.480 going to run a crosser across the field. That's the 0:19:04.560 --> 0:19:07.800 intermediate route. And then you have Sprowls in the backfield. 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.480 He's going to cross the formation and be the short 0:19:10.560 --> 0:19:14.320 receiver to that side. So you have short, intermediate, vertical, 0:19:14.440 --> 0:19:16.680 and you'll see how this plays out. As you let 0:19:16.680 --> 0:19:19.840 this run, you'll see right about now, if you freeze it, 0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:22.680 this safety, the deep safety we talked about that you 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:25.359 pointed out earlier, he is now starting to react to 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:29.000 Matthews on the intermediate crosser. So what you have is 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:32.439 no deep safety over the top of Jeremy Macklin or 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:35.639 Nelson Aguilar who would take that spot. So as we 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.320 let this go, you see that Macklin is able to 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:40.680 run by the corner and you get a big play 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:43.239 based on a three level stretch concept, which is a 0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:46.480 very significant part of the chip Kelly offense and interesting 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:49.240 to hear chip Kelly say yesterday that in terms of 0:19:49.240 --> 0:19:52.240 the comparison between these two players, Aglar maybe not quite 0:19:52.240 --> 0:19:55.399 as explosive deep just yet in his career, but maybe 0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:59.159 more versatile intermediately in the intermediate areas than Macklin was 0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:01.520 last season. But he can get on top of corners, 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:04.240 and I think even Macklin maybe a little more explosive, 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.480 but Aguilar will be able to do that in time. 0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:10.720 And here is Macklin once again the Aglar potential correct 0:20:10.720 --> 0:20:13.120 person here, and once again you're going to see them 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:16.479 working on the safety, reading him and getting they do 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:19.240 this totally differently. Here is the safety they need to 0:20:19.320 --> 0:20:23.040 control because Macklin is again going to run a vertical 0:20:23.160 --> 0:20:26.560 route a deep post, so you need this safety to 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:29.119 be under control, not to turn and run. So how 0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:31.119 do they do that? And this is where Chip Kelly 0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:33.040 is so good. And if you just run it a 0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:35.840 little bit, you'll see all kinds of action in the backfield. 0:20:35.880 --> 0:20:38.320 They have the bubble screen action to the left side. 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:41.800
