1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: In the late fifteen ten touched up Sucker, what's happening?

2
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 2: Everybody, Welcome to Chargers Weekly, presented by SPLITTERO. So I

3
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 2: could call it emergency pod, or I could just share

4
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: the truth, which is we had something knocked out Chris

5
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 2: and I did it yesterday, and of course the Tyler

6
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: Yaddish as and look, we do pods, and good things happen, right,

7
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 2: we end up posting something we're ready to roll. We're

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,959
Speaker 2: previewing free agency talking about Tyler Linderbaum or Connor mcgovernor

9
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 2: David Edwards, and we mentioned that Tyler was cut by

10
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 2: the commander. Certainly a surprising development, and way to go,

11
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: Joe ortiz Man and way to go, you know, Spano's

12
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 2: family and Jim Harbaugh and anybody who was in there

13
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 2: butch Berry, Nick Hardwick recruiting Tyler Biaddish because he was

14
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: an absolutely not even hot, but a Skald commodity. The

15
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 2: signing of Biattish does not factor into the compensatory formula

16
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: because he was cut. He's not just a free agency

17
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 2: free agent. So if you know, unfortunately the Chargers lose

18
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: someone to a big money deal like Zion or oh Way,

19
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: that will firmly continue to put them in position to receive,

20
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 2: you know, that third or fourth round pick. This will

21
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: not factor against that. Who you sign versus who you

22
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: lose is what goes into those compensatory picks. We thought

23
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 2: they were going to get a six this year, but

24
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 2: it looks like that is not going to happen for

25
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 2: the JK. Dobbins signing. So one, you get a and

26
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 2: I kind of it took me a minute here to

27
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 2: get into this because I wanted to go through a

28
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: lot of the cut ups. I went through all of

29
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 2: his pressures, went through the key plays, went through a

30
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: couple games in hole just to kind of get a

31
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: viob not gonna lie. We did see him last year

32
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: against the Chargers, and hey, you got a center that

33
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: in a contest watched Jerkrosky. Merrit app absolutely gash that

34
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 2: Chargers defense in the run game. As a matter of fact,

35
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: if I'm just to kind of pull it up real quick,

36
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 2: give you an idea of what that looked like when

37
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,399
Speaker 2: he went up against you know, one of the best

38
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 2: defenses in the league. Washington hangs twenty seven on the

39
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: Chargers and crosskey. Merritt goes for one hundred and eleven

40
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: yards on fourteen carries, averaging seven point nine a long

41
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: of twenty seven. Jayden Daniels did get sacked once. That

42
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: sack was given up by Baddis. She got just the

43
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: break speat off him by justin a boyd Bee who

44
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 2: picked him up and just put him on skates, ran

45
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: him right in to Daniels for that sack and kind

46
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: of going through the pressures and the sacks allowed. That's

47
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: one thing that I noticed in his losses. He's not

48
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 2: the biggest guy when you're talking about Biadas, he's you know, look,

49
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 2: he's incredible stock. Right, you're talking about a Wisconsin center,

50
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: a great center for Wisconsin. But six' four three, sixteen

51
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: so he's not that three thirty three thirty five kind of.

52
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: Range but sixteen is still pretty. HEALTH i, mean you think

53
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: About Aaron brewer for The, dolphins The All pro, center

54
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 2: arguably the best center in in football last, year and

55
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 2: he's under three hundred, pounds so three sixteens. Fine BUT

56
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: i think for whatever, reason it just kind of shows

57
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 2: up in the sacks that he gave up AND i

58
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 2: pulled up His let's see what we got for For,

59
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 2: beatish we had three sacks twenty three, pressures a ninety

60
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 2: seven point seven pass block efficiency rating in a four

61
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 2: percent pressure. Rate what does that all? Mean here's the

62
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: THING i know that THAT pff takes a lot of.

63
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: INCOMING i posted on on my twitter. Feed you, know

64
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: just kind of you go from the fortieth which is

65
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: when you when you put in qualified centers based on,

66
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 2: SNAPS i usually put it four. Hundred you, know that's

67
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: kind OF i think a good. Number three hundred you

68
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: could probably get away with for somebody that played half

69
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 2: the season or something like. That But Bradley boseman was

70
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: forty out of. Forty Tyler biattish comes in at eleven

71
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: out of forty, overall and in pressures they had him

72
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: with twenty. Three to put that in, Perspective Bradley boseman

73
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: led all centers with. Forty Tyler, linderbaum who reportedly is

74
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 2: seeking twenty five million dollars a, year that would be

75
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 2: a jump of what six and a half million dollars

76
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 2: Over Creed humphrey's current highest paid center contract at eighteen

77
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 2: a half and a half per, Year so that's a

78
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: little bit of a chunk you're saving If linderbaum's gonna

79
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 2: get what he's asking because there is a serious demand

80
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: for centers on the, market and his agent thinks they

81
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 2: can get into a bidding war between The bears and

82
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 2: The ravens and The packers and all of these teams

83
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: that need, centers that they can command that kind of.

84
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 2: Number with the salary cap jumping twenty two million bucks

85
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: and getting over three hundred million dollars this year to

86
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: be able to pick up The oddish like to go

87
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: from and really, Look Tyler linderbaum gave up what twenty six?

88
00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 2: Pressures They oodish gave up twenty. Three linderbaum's pressure rate

89
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 2: was four Points let me make SURE i got that,

90
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: right four point nine. Percent that was actually one of

91
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: the higher pressure rates in the. League let's See Sean

92
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 2: ryan led everyone at five point, nine Then bozeman at five.

93
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: Seven linderboum was fourth at four point, Nine beatdish down

94
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 2: at four. Flat so when you're talking about pressures allowed

95
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 2: in the twenty THREE i count. Seventeen you, KNOW i

96
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 2: think that's sort of the one thing that that people

97
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: DING pff. Four they don't know what assignments. Are you

98
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 2: have no idea who the guy's supposed to be blocking

99
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: you can't ding him for that. Pressure that wasn't his.

100
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: Guy that sort of. Stuff so WHEN i kind of

101
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 2: go back AND i look through the twenty, three what

102
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: DO i? SEE i see jayd And daniels holding out

103
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: of the ball too, long probably in at, Least well

104
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: what DO i? GOT i got seventeen and six of

105
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: those WHERE i Thought, beioddish you, know won his rep

106
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: and the balls just it's got to come, out and it.

107
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 2: Didn't now what did show up was elite players taking

108
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 2: advantage of. Them Abdul carter got him. Twice just the

109
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 2: get off was too fast and And beiatish. Wasn't and

110
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 2: look that's an edge, player that's that's over a center

111
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 2: that's got to snap the. Ball we know That Abdul

112
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 2: carter is just crazy, quick and he got him a couple. Times,

113
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 2: now then you go to the other side of. THAT

114
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 2: i mentioned the sack by a Boy bee was power

115
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 2: just kind of put him on those skates and shoved

116
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 2: him right back into the lap Of daniels and a

117
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 2: boy be got that. Sack but that, happened he got

118
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 2: walked back on quite a. Few quinnin got him against The.

119
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 2: JETS i lost his anchor Against dorles and got walked

120
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 2: back into the. Quarterback Zach allen gave him Serious that

121
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: was one of the GAMES i. WATCHED i was, like,

122
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 2: ah let's let's get a look at The bronco. Game

123
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 2: Zach allen gave him problems when he was asked to.

124
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 2: PULL i was watching The raider game, too BECAUSE i,

125
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: figured you know, what let's watch THE Afc west. Stuff

126
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 2: SO i got through a, handful quite more than a

127
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 2: handful of the snaps Against Kansas, city and, Look Chris

128
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: jones was was right on top of him a couple of,

129
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: times and those are tough reps to. Win he got

130
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 2: fooled on a. STUNT i think it. WAS i think

131
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 2: it was a by Car loftiest did he just didn't see.

132
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 2: Coming but you, know that stuff's. Hard you have no

133
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 2: idea what it looks like in the wash and if

134
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: it was even possible for him to see that. Coming

135
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: SO i think just kind of WHAT i was, Watching

136
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 2: Roy lopez gave him some, problems and that's a big

137
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: heavy handed body For, detroit AND i think that's maybe

138
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 2: just sort of what you would, see, like, hey what

139
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: are some of the issues. Now to put that out

140
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: of the, way AND i bring that up BECAUSE i

141
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 2: think that's what people are going to go.

142
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 3: To how many sacks did he? Allow?

143
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 2: Three how many pressures did he allow twenty? Three what

144
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 2: was his pressure? Rate four? Percent like where does that place?

145
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: Him just top? Ten basically you're just like right at

146
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: that ten to twelve, Rank and to go from forty

147
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: to eleven is a much bigger jump than going from

148
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 2: eleven to. One like if you had the let's just

149
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: say you had the fifteenth ranked center and you went

150
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 2: to one jump going from thirty, two if you just

151
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: want to do it by teams to fifteen would be

152
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: so significantly larger than that jump from fifteen to, one

153
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 2: just because we started seeing it toward the end of the,

154
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: year right where you've got edge rushers just lined up

155
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: over the center and they're, like you know, what we're

156
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: just going to go. Here and that's the one thing

157
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: that you have to avoid on an offensive line is

158
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: don't allow the defense any easy. Buttons don't don't let

159
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 2: them attack one particular spot where they're JUST i think

160
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: about The texans playoff game and how they were just

161
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 2: running stunts relentlessly on the interior of that. Line on

162
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: saw your On bozeman and On zion and it was

163
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 2: a rough go because that's just what they had identified

164
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 2: as a weak spot and they pounded it over and

165
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: over and what did it lead? To a bunch of,

166
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 2: pressures a bunch of, hits a bunch of, sacks and four,

167
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 2: interceptions and, like that's what you've got to. Avoid and

168
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 2: with the signing Of beyaddish before free agency even, Opens

169
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 2: like Remember Whenaniel jay if you listened to it earlier

170
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: at The Daniel jeremiah, episode what did he. Say he's,

171
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 2: like IF i could be one person at the, COMBINE

172
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 2: i want to Be Tyler linderbaum's agent because he thinks

173
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: he can get.

174
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 3: Twenty five million.

175
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 2: Bucks so now you know when you get Into linderbaum

176
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 2: for twenty five million dollars and you're, like, Well i'm

177
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: not going to pay that for that. Guy, well what

178
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 2: do you think is going to happen to the market

179
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 2: For connor, McGovern For Cade, mays For Lloyd, cushionberry For Tyler.

180
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 2: Battish everything is going to get. Elevated and in the

181
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,439
Speaker 2: case of a general, manager you, know what's your number

182
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: one goal to get value out of your, signings to

183
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 2: not lose, value to not pay twenty five million dollars

184
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 2: For Tyler linderbaum when he's not playing at the level

185
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 2: Of Creed humphrey at eighteen and a half million. Dollars

186
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 2: if he's not you, know if you have other centers

187
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: out there that were. Signed if if McGovern signs for

188
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 2: seventeen or eighteen and he's out Playing, Linderbaum i'm not

189
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 2: saying that's going to, happen but like that's what that's an,

190
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 2: issue that's that's not outperforming the. CONTRACT i have no

191
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 2: question based on WHAT i think this center market's going

192
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 2: to look like that three, years thirty mil and ten

193
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 2: per For beaddish is going to be an incredible. Value

194
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: and he's going to continue to get value out of

195
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 2: his signings like he has like he has out At Dante,

196
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: jackson like he has out Of DeShawn hand And Puna

197
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 2: ford and Tier tart and obviously trading a fifth round

198
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: pick for a guy, that if you include the, playoffs

199
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: ended up with ten and a half sacks and a

200
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 2: half a season in one playoff game like twelve games

201
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 2: and a plus in thirteen.

202
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 3: Games like that's that's.

203
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: Value and so the other, thing, too is this goes

204
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: back to What chris AND i talked about at the, combine,

205
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 2: right and we talked about it, repeatedly which is you

206
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 2: cannot go into the draft without a starting.

207
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 3: Center AND i think With, beadish he is twenty. Eight

208
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 3: when's his?

209
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: Birthday so he will turn twenty Nine november, twentieth and,

210
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: no he'll be what is it ninety, Seven, yeah he'll

211
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 2: be twenty. Nine he'll be twenty Nine november. Twentieth SO

212
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: i don't think that precludes you from draft in a.

213
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: Center but now you don't have to reach you, know

214
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 2: you don't have to reach For slaughter in the. Second

215
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 2: if you like him in the, third you don't have

216
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 2: to reach For hecked in the. Second if you like

217
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 2: him in the, Third Logan jones in the third or the,

218
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 2: fourth you don't.

219
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 3: Have to pick him in the.

220
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 2: Second SO i do think they're still going to draft a.

221
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 2: CENTER i do think there's some really, good you, know

222
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 2: centers out, there converted centers that we've talked. About the

223
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 2: one the one THING i think this could bring into

224
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 2: play for their pick is Obviously Yo WANNA i think

225
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 2: is still there because now you've got a. CENTER i

226
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: think it's certainly let's just you know, what let me

227
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 2: pause that and go. BACK i think what this brings

228
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 2: into the to play into, focus AND i wouldn't be

229
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 2: surprised if they try to get this done before the

230
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 2: negotiating period On monday and free agency officially opening On.

231
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: Wednesday BUT i think it Brings zion firmly back into

232
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 2: the mix if you're not spending twenty. TWO i Thought

233
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 2: tyler was going TO i Thought. Linderbaum they're Both tyler's,

234
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 2: right they got A. TYLER i thought That linderbaum was

235
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: probably going to be north of. TWENTY i was think

236
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 2: of twenty and half twenty one million. Bucks and then

237
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 2: if you do, that you're, like, eh If zion's number

238
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: gets too, high then we Got. Linderbaum well we'll draft a.

239
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: Guard you, know let's let's either Get yowani there at twenty,

240
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: two or maybe trade back and Get basantis or pregnant

241
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 2: at the back end of the, first or trade up

242
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 2: in the, second or just kind of figure out some

243
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: way to massage that and then sign you, know another

244
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 2: guard in that ten to fifteen million dollar. Range The,

245
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: cimalu's The, zeitlers The, tellers the Butt potonio's like that

246
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 2: eight to let's, say eight to fourteen million dollar, range

247
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 2: depending on you, Know, siamala what the what the guard

248
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 2: market looks. LIKE i Think edwards is going to get

249
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 2: north of fifteen into that seventeen range pretty. Quick AND

250
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 2: i Know i'm kind of wandering over the place BECAUSE

251
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 2: i don't Have chris to keep the guardrails on here for.

252
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 2: Me but, like that's the thing About edwards and, McGovern,

253
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: like you just saw The bills pay a serious premium

254
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 2: for a wide receiver whose production has gone down in

255
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 2: each of the life last two. Years and The bears

256
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 2: have seen a rookie And Luther, burden a second year

257
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 2: player In Roma, dunsay and a rookie In Colston lovelin

258
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 2: kind of outplay him and just be more reliable targets

259
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 2: To Caleb williams and To Ben. Johnson and you, KNOW

260
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 2: Dj moore, COSTS i could, argue costs The bears that

261
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 2: divisional round playoff game against The rams because of that

262
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 2: lazy route he ran that Allowed Cam curl to intercept,

263
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: it and that was something that he was dinged for.

264
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 2: Repeatedly so not to relitigate, that but to bring up

265
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 2: the point that that's a guy that The bills were

266
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 2: willing to trade a second round pick to go. GET i,

267
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: mean it's a deep wide receiver class, man and to

268
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 2: kind of give up a second rounder, for you, know

269
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 2: for a guy THAT i think had six hundred and

270
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 2: fifty yards and fifty catches last year and was fourth

271
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 2: in the pecking order as far as his quarterback and

272
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: his head coach were. Concerned behind burden Of dunsay In

273
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,319
Speaker 2: loveland when all was and, Done, like to, me that's

274
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 2: that's a. Premium and so when you're willing to do

275
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 2: that and guarantee his twenty seven salary and guarantee fifteen

276
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 2: million bucks of his twenty eight salary and his age

277
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 2: thirty and thirty one, seasons why are you letting your

278
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: interior offensive line? Walk because that's the word out Of

279
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 2: buffalo that they're comfortable moving on from both McGovern And edwards,

280
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 2: like who played pretty well last. Year but it's just to,

281
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 2: me that's a bit of a red flag if you're

282
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: going to get those. Guys and, LOOK i could say

283
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: the same thing For, washington, Right why Did washington Let beattish?

284
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: WALK i don't, know he had a great season two

285
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: years ago and this year LIKE i, said WHEN i

286
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 2: go through the, film he's a guy that can.

287
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 3: Move.

288
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 2: Man there's a couple plays where this guy's out there and,

289
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 2: moving and we know What mike McDaniel likes to do

290
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 2: with his center and how important that pivot is to

291
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 2: move around and move. Laterally And BEYATTISH i thought was,

292
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 2: fine if not maybe fine plus in that. Category so

293
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 2: they get ahead of. It they don't allow themselves to

294
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 2: get caught up in a bidding war and maybe overpaying

295
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 2: for a center because there's not enough out. There and you,

296
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,200

309
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 2: thorida does a great. JOB i WOULD i would recommend

310
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 2: subscribing to His Trench warfare over there on a. Substack

311
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: so he does not have any elite starters for interior,

312
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: line so this is guards and. Centers his number one

313
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 2: interior alignment Is linderbaum at twenty six top Interior Offensive Linemen,

314
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 2: available profiles as a very good scheme dependent, starter impact run,

315
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 2: blocker particularly in. Zone so obviously that Fits mike McDaniel

316
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 2: what the chargers. Wanted i'm sure they were incredibly interested pass,

317
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: protection smaller frame, limit his, ceiling and that's kind of

318
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 2: WHAT i noticed WHEN i was going through his. Pressures

319
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: LIKE i, said more, pressures higher pressure, rate lower pass.

320
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 2: Grade if you want to focus on the grades OF.

321
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 2: PFF i know a lot of people don't like doing,

322
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: that but you know what they do the, Work they

323
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 2: grind the tape and they're willing to put up with.

324
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: That they're willing to post At right behind him is

325
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 2: someone THAT i talked about That i'd really like to

326
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 2: see the chargers maybe get creative with and Bring Elijah

327
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 2: Vera tuker back to Southern california where he played his.

328
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: Football he was drafted right Behind Rashaan. SLATER i Know

329
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: chargers were very interested in him because they did not

330
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 2: Think slater was going to be there at thirteen when

331
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: they drafted. HIM i think it was thirteen or. Twelve

332
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 2: But Vera tucker of, Course Vera tucker of, course knee,

333
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: injury two triceps toward each of, them missed all of last.

334
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 2: Season but when he, plays he's incredible. Durability what else

335
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 2: does he have on? Here top five to ten range

336
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 2: among right? Guards so can you can you do a

337
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 2: deal for avt that's you, know ten twelve million dollar

338
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 2: floor with incentives that would make him you, know sniff

339
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: twenty million bucks because he's worth twenty million dollars plus

340
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: If Tray smith is worth twenty five million bucks a,

341
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 2: year then you can argue That Barrett tucker should be

342
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 2: in that twenty million dollar range if he's. Healthy SO

343
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 2: i would love to see, maybe you, know get creative

344
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 2: and have an incentive based on games, played sort of

345
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,679
Speaker 2: contract where you guarantee the guy a few, years you,

346
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: know twenty twenty five million bucks for a couple of

347
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 2: seasons and put a floor at ten, mil and then you,

348
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 2: know get him and if he does play a certain

349
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 2: number of, games maybe there's an opt out in, there

350
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 2: and then he can get back into that high end

351
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 2: guard market if he's proven that those are just sort

352
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 2: of flukey. Injuries but all, right that's neither here nor.

353
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 2: There so here's the interesting, thing, right he's got to

354
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 2: be out of sh. Six he's Got brandon's Got biadish

355
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 2: as his second rated center and his sixth best interior offensive.

356
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 2: Lineman David, edwards WHO i was talking about from The

357
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 2: bills being, released is, Fifth potonio is, fourth And Wyatt

358
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 2: teller is. THIRD i would love to see any of those,

359
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 2: Three AND i Think edward's market is going to look

360
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 2: considerably different Than potonio's who's thirty, four And, teller who's

361
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 2: dealt with a lot of, injuries and me and caff

362
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 2: the last few years at thirty. One BUT i think

363
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 2: either of, them with a draft pick behind, him make

364
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 2: a lot of. Sense but here's what he had to

365
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 2: say About beyaddish somewhat surprising release By washington placing a

366
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 2: firmly above average center on the, market delivered the most

367
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 2: complete season of his career in twenty, four third Team

368
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 2: All pro FOR us and our annual and he said

369
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 2: offensive aggression last, year interior turnover provide, Context and that's

370
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 2: kind of what we were talking, about Was zion, Right,

371
00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 2: like it's it's hard to measure and Grades ion when

372
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 2: you've got four different left Tackles Jamari, Sawyer Bobby, Hart Austin,

373
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 2: Deculus Joe walt, Five Trevor. Penning Did trey ever play?

374
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 2: Left if he, did that would be. Six, like when

375
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 2: you've got that sort of, variance and when you've got

376
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,439
Speaker 2: a center that you know some outlets are raking forty

377
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: out of forty on the other side of, you it's

378
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 2: hard to get a. Measure and that's kind of What

379
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 2: brandon's saying here On, tyler, like, yeah, Look Chris paul

380
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 2: came in and, stepped you, know solidified stuff a little

381
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 2: bit a couple of games into the, season but you

382
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 2: know they had issues along that. Interior one of the

383
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 2: better move blockers. There you, go that fits in with

384
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 2: What mike McDaniel wants to. Do precise, angles, timing, leverage,

385
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 2: climbs second level Fits that's kind of WHAT i was

386
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 2: talking about THAT i. SAW i think it was in

387
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 2: That Denver gars The raider game that he was really

388
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 2: moving well with what they were doing out. There and

389
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: again against The, chargers LIKE i, said they hung twenty

390
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 2: seven points on him crosskey merrit average seven point. Nine

391
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 2: as a, whole they averaged five point eight per, carry two,

392
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 2: touchdowns a couple, explosives And Jayden daniels was back there

393
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 2: for two hundred and thirty one yards on twenty six

394
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 2: dropbacks and just that single sack that in, fact LIKE i,

395
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 2: Said biadish did give up and they you, know they

396
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,239
Speaker 2: waxed The chargers pretty good in that game twenty seven to.

397
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: Ten but back to kind of WHERE i was at

398
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 2: With brandon, here ceiling is not elite because of his modest,

399
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 2: sized athletic, limitations polished reliability to create one of the

400
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 2: higher floors they got him before he hit the. MARKET

401
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 2: i THINK pft was reporting that he did not take

402
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 2: that visit with The, bears so if The chargers were their,

403
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 2: first was his first. Visit kudos to Coach harbaugh And

404
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 2: Joe ortiz for creating an environment and a culture and

405
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 2: a destination that some of these players when they show

406
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 2: up to the boat and The spanos family for building the.

407
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 2: Bolt you, know you walk into that, building probably didn't hurt.

408
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 2: That you, know you just went through an arctic. Blast god,

409
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 2: KNOWS i was in the middle of it IN dc

410
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 2: And philadelphia last. Week and now you're out here when

411
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 2: it's seventy five degrees and, glorious and you get a

412
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 2: chance to pitch the guy to just stick around and not.

413
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: Leave here's thirty million, bucks go shopping for a sweet

414
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 2: spot there on The South, Bay, tyler and why would he?

415
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 2: Leave don't give the, packers don't give the, bears don't

416
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 2: give any of these other spots an opportunity to make

417
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 2: him an. Offer and now they you, know after moving

418
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 2: on From Will disley and a Guy. Becked then basically

419
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 2: you take that money that you just created with the

420
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 2: release of those two or the declining of the option

421
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 2: and the release Of, will and you gave it To.

422
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 2: Beattish and now you've Got alt And Alt, Slater Bey.

423
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 2: Oddish let's see if they can get something done With

424
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 2: zion by the time the market. Opens you got a

425
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 2: number of guards that you can go. Into and now

426
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: with that twenty two, PICK i think you can get

427
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 2: creative and trade back and maybe pick up a, Guard

428
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 2: LIKE i, said IF yo want he's not there and

429
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 2: there's a tackle, available it's a great tackle class and

430
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,639
Speaker 2: someone wants to jump up and grab that, tackle and

431
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 2: you want to move back into the twenties or. SOMETHING

432
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 2: i think there's other guard options like we mentioned In

433
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 2: basantas And, pregnant And proctor's an interesting one because now

434
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 2: you've got maybe tackle protection and guard potential with. Him

435
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: he's he's a little more. Boombust makes me a little bit,

436
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 2: nervous gonna be honest with, you but it's a pretty sweet.

437
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 2: Setup AND i think some of those centers that we

438
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: were talking about when we were out In, indianapolis the you,

439
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: Know i'll just make SURE i pull him up here

440
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 2: SO i don't forget any Because i'm. Old my brain

441
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,479
Speaker 2: doesn't work. Sometimes sam Had connor lew is the ONE

442
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 2: i kept forgetting because he's been. Injured if he had

443
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 2: played last, year probably would be the number one. Center Jake,

444
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 2: Slaughter Logan jones later take a flyer On Pat coogan

445
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 2: in the sixth round or something like. THAT i think

446
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 2: you talk about guys that might Convert parker From duke

447
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 2: is one of, those and so there's there's plenty of

448
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 2: options now and you don't have to go into the draft.

449
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 2: Desperate So i'm looking at it as our friends At

450
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 2: splitario put this thing together for, us and we got

451
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 2: At alexander coming up forgot to mention. That so our

452
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: conversation with him at the combine still holds that thing was,

453
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: evergreen just kind of talking about philosophy and how he

454
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 2: envisioned this team attacking free agency and the draft when

455
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 2: he joined. Us, so, yeah that's twenty three minutes of.

456
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 2: Me that's way too much. Me but, hey great news,

457
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 2: today cause for, celebration and hopefully that gives you just

458
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 2: a tiny bit of Insight i'm seeing IF i DID

459
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 2: i leave anything out here on Be honish. Again drafted

564
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,760

00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 5: at you, know potential practice squad vets to bring. On

569
00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 5: if they're, injuries you, know you got to set up

570
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 5: workouts and and and bring in players that they can fill.

571
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,840

00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 5: guys that are versatile and smart and understanding kind of

573
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,760

575
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,719

577
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 5: so it's always really just trying to upgrade the roster

578
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 5: in any, way shape or form that you. Can and

Speaker 5: players the old way. Trades it's really ABOUT uh upgrading

581
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 5: the bottom end of the. ROSTER, uh you, know just

582
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 5: kind of making sure that you're always creating as much

583
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 5: competition as.

584
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,120

Speaker 5: Indy, yeah So indy is a huge piece of the.

649
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 5: Process a lot of information here and each player is

650
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 5: kind of judged in the same, environment which is. Great

651
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 5: so they all go through the interview, process they all

652
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 5: go through the testing, process they all get the verified,

653
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 5: measurables the medical process as.

654
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 3: Well so really important piece of the process this.

655
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 5: Week but there's months and months of, preparation as you,

656
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 5: know that go into each player that's on our draft.

657
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 3: Board so it's really the.

658
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 5: Scouts they do an incredible job of just collecting, background

659
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 5: getting the information and presenting it in a way that

660
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 5: we can understand it so that we can kind of

661
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 5: set our initial. Board and so there's there's months and

662
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 5: months of preparation that go into. It it's not just

663
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 5: about the. Player it's not just about you, know how he.

664
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 5: Plays it's really more so about the, person you, know

665
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 5: any medical questions that might come and then also what's

666
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 5: the developmental plan for each player that we discussed in

667
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 5: the draft, room, like if we do draft this, player

668
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 5: if we get this player at some, point how are

669
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 5: we gonna develop him and turn him into the best

670
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 5: player for The chargers that we could possibly turn him.

671
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 5: Into so there's a, lot there's a lot of preparation

672
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 5: that goes into. It this piece of the combine is

673
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 5: a really really important, week but it's a piece of the.

674
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 5: Process just first glance thoughts on the draft. Class just

675
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 5: talking around to some people, here seems like edge is

676
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 5: something they. Mentioned they say pretty you, know sort of interestingly. Enough,

677
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 5: quarterback running, back maybe not quite, there but interior, line

678
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 5: offensive line seems like it's looking pretty. Good kind of

679
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 5: what are your initial sort of thoughts on the? CLASS

680
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 5: i would agree with. That we talked to a bunch

681
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 5: of good edges last. Night it was our first night

682
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 5: with the interview. Process talk to a bunch of talented

683
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 5: defensive linemen as, well and you, know really it's about

684
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 5: the versatility of a lot of these. Guys these, guys you,

685
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 5: know talking about the edge guys, specifically they can rush the. Passer,

686
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 5: obviously a lot of them can drop in space and

687
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 5: do some things from a coverage, standpoint as, well and

688
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 5: so really just when you interview him, here just trying

689
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 5: to find out their football, acumen you know WHAT i,

690
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 5: Mean like how intelligent are? They how well do they take?

691
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 5: Coaching can they are they self? Aware are they able

692
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 5: to correct themselves as they watch the tape with? You

693
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 5: BUT i DO i THINK i think it's a deep.

694
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 5: CLASS i, mean you talk about anterior offensive. Line you

695
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,760
Speaker 5: know a lot of, times you, know you got guys

696
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 5: in college that are that might play, tackle but they

697
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 5: show the versatility that they can play, inside or they play,

698
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 5: guard or they show the versatility they can that they

699
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,280
Speaker 5: can snap the ball in certain.

700
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 3: Situations so we're looking at all.

701
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 5: That it's a lot of pieces that go into the,

702
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,399
Speaker 5: puzzle but we try to bring all the information to the.

703
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 3: Table and come up with the best decision for us

704
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 3: as an.

705
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 4: Organization, chad what's the biggest difference between an offensive lineman

706
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 4: that best fits A mike McDaniel system versus what we've

707
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 4: seen here with The chargers of the last two.

708
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 5: Years, WELL i think you know these, guys you Know mike,

709
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 5: McDaniel and you, Know Butch berry the offensive Line, corps

710
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 5: they've done an outstanding job of coming in and really

711
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 5: just defining with clarity exactly the type of players that they, like,

712
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 5: uh not just an offensive, line but across the entire.

713
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 5: Offense and, again, versatility you, know plays into it being

714
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 5: able to play fast and you, know through the system.

715
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 5: ITSELF i think that what they allow players to do

716
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 5: is they allow players to play, fast you know WHAT i.

717
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 3: Mean LIKE i, said it's a it's a quarterback friendly.

718
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 5: System it's also a system that's heavily reliant upon the

719
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 5: run game and guys that can they can, Move guys

720
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 5: that can move, laterally guys that can run, Block guys

721
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 5: that you, know their feet match their, hands you, know

722
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 5: they play with. Technique size is obviously important as, well

723
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 5: BUT i think more important is just the intelligence and

724
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 5: inability to move on the offensive line is kind of

725
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 5: what sets it.

726
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 2: Apart when just kind of speaking to that tackles kicking

727
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 2: inside if they haven't done, it you, KNOW i Think

728
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 2: i'm kind of a player That i'm thinking, of but right,

729
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 2: tackle left, tackle but projected arm length right to kick?

730
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,880
Speaker 2: Inside how hard is that to? Do what's? Different you,

731
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,799
Speaker 2: know share with the people what's different about pushing a

732
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 2: guy inside the guard and what you have to project.

733
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 3: Yeah just because of arm.

734
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 5: Length, YEAH i THINK i think it's, uh you, know

735
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 5: it's not it's not an easy thing for a player to.

736
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 5: Do a lot of, times you know that they may

737
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 5: hear about THE nfl, wanting like, say there's a tackle

738
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 5: that this play tackle is entire collegiate, career but he

739
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 5: may hear through scouts OR nfl personnel early in his. Career,

740
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 5: hey this guy is probably gonna be a guard at

741
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 5: the next, level so they'll get practice. Reps they might

742
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,240
Speaker 5: be the best offensive lineman on their team in, college

743
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 5: so they're playing left tackle, exclusively but they might get

744
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 5: practice reps at at guard during the week or practice

745
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 5: reps at center during the, week so that you, know

746
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 5: when scouts come through, there that they're able to, see,

747
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 5: uh the player at the alternative. Position but it's not.

748
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 5: Easy but you, KNOW i THINK i think a lot

749
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 5: is made of arm, length you know WHAT i. Mean

750
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 5: but sometimes you're really just talking but you're not you're

751
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 5: not talking about a whole lot Of, yeah you're not

752
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 5: really talking about a whole lot of of of of arm.

753
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 5: Length you're really just talking about a couple of inches

754
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 5: maybe here and their. Inch SO i, think you, know

755
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 5: the most important thing for a player an offensive lineman

756
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 5: is you, know they play with their hands and their,

757
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 5: feet that they that they, match you know WHAT i,

758
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 5: Mean and they play with. Technique and so sometimes you'll

759
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 5: find guys that you, know played left tackle and may

760
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 5: not have as much lengths as other left tackles in THE.

761
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,359
Speaker 5: Nfl they played left tackle in, college but they're able,

762
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 5: to you, know make the transition to the league and

763
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:07,839
Speaker 5: continue that at that.

764
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 4: Position, chad you guys have hit on so many guys

765
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 4: the last couple of. Years is there a specific player

766
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 4: maybe mid to late round that you're particularly proud of

767
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 4: that that's made an impact on this.

768

Speaker 5: guys that you, Know, hey these are players that they

773
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 5: may not be players that we take in the first

774
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 5: couple of, rounds but they're guys that we want on our,

775

Speaker 5: Players and a lot of times it's.

778
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 3: Not just about their.

779
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 5: Ability LIKE i, said it's about who the player, is

780
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 5: like their, competitiveness how much they love, ball how smart they,

781
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 5: are how intelligent they are as a, player how versatile they,

782
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 5: are if they're willing to play special, teams if they

783
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 5: have a special team's. Background that's kind of what gets

784
00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 5: them over the hump in my opinion when it comes

785
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 5: to how we do our. Evaluation so several, players And

786
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,919
Speaker 5: Rondie gatson is another. ONE i, mean there's there's guys

787
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 5: up and down the line that fifth oh, yeah, yeah

788
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 5: definitely definitely guys that have done a great job for.

789
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 5: Themselves and you, know the best thing about, IT i

790
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 5: think is all those players we mentioned is like the

791
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 5: least surprised about their success is the player, themselves you

792
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 5: know WHAT i, Mean like they have a supreme confidence in.

793
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 5: Themselves they come in as rookies that hit the ground

794
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,320
Speaker 5: running and it's apparent, Earlyer, hey this guy's gonna be a,

795
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:26,880
Speaker 5: player you know WHAT i.

796
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 3: Mean that's a great. Feeling it really.

797
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 2: Is what's the what goes into the evaluation of just

798
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:36,399
Speaker 2: someone that's unfortunately dealt with. Injuries you've, got, yeah say

799
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: a guy that's been on the field when he's on the,

800
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 2: Field he's absolutely dominant, versatility can play a number of.

801
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 2: Positions yet you're look and it's, like all, right, Bank,

802
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 2: bank here's three in a row where you're dealing with.

803
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 2: Injuries how do you kind of figure that? Out of

804
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 2: just that the how tantalizing it is for the, talent

805
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 2: but dealing with the.

806
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 5: Injury you, KNOW i think obviously the medical and the

807
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 5: durability is a huge part of the prime, process and

808
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 5: this week is is, huge uh in terms of players

809
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 5: and and and being able to, uh you, know go

810
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 5: through the medical process. Themselves and sometimes you, know durability

811
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 5: red flags come up for, players but you always want

812
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 5: to take it back to the, tape LIKE i, said

813
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 5: and and you know what type of player is?

814
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 3: He and is he?

815
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 5: Available you, know is a guy that you, know despite you,

816
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 5: know some of these injury. Concerns is he a guy

817
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 5: that that continued to play throughout his college career if he?

818
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 5: Didn't obviously that those are things that you have to

819
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 5: factor in as. Well and you, know we we've got you,

820
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 5: know great doctors And marco does a great job as

821
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 5: well in terms of, uh you, know just looking at

822
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 5: the physicals and and letting us know, what you, know

823
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 5: what what the players durability uh percentages.

824
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 3: And AND i THINK i think that's really.

825
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 5: Important so all of it factors in, Obviously, uh but

826
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 5: if a player is really consistent and didn't miss a

827
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 5: lot of games in, college, uh you, know from my personal,

828
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 5: perspective you, KNOW i like to think that that trend

829
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 5: is going to continue in THE. Nfl you, know despite you,

830
00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 5: know there might be some medical red flags here, there

831
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 5: and you have you have to pay attention to. Him

832
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 5: but if a guy continue to play in college with

833
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 5: these with these, issues then you, KNOW i tend to

834
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 5: think that that's going to continue in THE nfl as.

835
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 3: Well you, Know.

836
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,399
Speaker 4: Chad buddy AND i were talking about that That week

837
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,839
Speaker 4: eighteen game At, denver which many people's eyes the meeting

838
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 4: in this game not for you guys, though to evaluate

839
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 4: especially what that defense did to the number one seeded

840
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 4: Bo nix Led broncos keep him out of.

841
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 3: The end zone Like Marlo.

842
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 4: Wax how how gratifying was it to watch some of

843
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 4: those guys play the way they did and and how

844
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 4: helpful is that for an evaluation for this upcoming year and.

845
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 5: Beyond, yeah it was extremely. GRATIFYING i mean to see

846
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 5: a guy like Take marco for. EXAMPLE i, mean he

847
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 5: had an outstanding, preseason you, know and didn't get as

848
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 5: many opportunities as he probably would have liked during the regular.

849
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 5: Season but then you, know you come to week eighteen

850
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 5: and like you, said it wasn't a MEANING i, mean you,

851
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 5: know it was a very meaningful game for, us and

852
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 5: especially for a guy Like. Wax you, know he gets

853
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 5: out there and he hits the ground run and it's

854
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 5: it's almost as if there was no drop off between

855
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 5: the preseason and the last week of the regular.

856
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 3: Season like the way he.

857
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 5: Played he played so, fast and you, know he does

858
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,760
Speaker 5: a great job in, Meetings he pays attention to, detail

859
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 5: and he's a really intelligent. Player so, uh it just

860
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 5: just gives you confidence that a guy like, him you

861
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 5: can you can plug him in at any point and

862
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 5: and he'll come in the game and he'll he'll he'll,

863
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,280
Speaker 5: produce you, know and we have you, know several examples

864
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 5: of that on our defense and offense as. Well you,

865
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,919

866
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 5: and and and you know made made a name for,

867
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:26,840

870
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 5: Uh you, know, again we've got some guys that at

871
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 5: different positions along the offensive line that have you taken

872
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,919
Speaker 5: snaps uh at practice at their respective. Colleges so those

873
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 5: guys are going to be evaluated at center at center as.

874
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 5: Well but but it's a good. CLASS i feel like

875
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 5: it's a it's it's a it's a good. Class it's

876
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 5: a deep. Class and, uh you, know LIKE i, said

877
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 5: Butcher berry came in and and And, mike and they've

878
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 5: told us exactly what they want out of the, position.

879
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 2: So that that gets a play one. Right that's the

880
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 2: biggest difference between these. SCHEMES i MEAN i kind of

881
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 2: look At bradley And i'm, LIKE i don't think that.

882
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 2: Works and what they want to do compared to like

883
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 2: what they do want to do at, center it seems

884
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: like is that fair to, say LIKE i assume all

885
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 2: line that you've got to be able to move right

886
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:14,360
Speaker 2: to run this.

887
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 3: Scheme absolutely you.

888
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 5: Do and but and you know the thing About brad

889
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 5: And brad had a great career AND i was With

890
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 5: brad when we drafted him at The, ravens but extremely,

891
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,240
Speaker 5: intelligent you know WHAT i mean a great, communicator somebody

892
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 5: that knows how to get everybody lined. Up so that's

893
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 5: obviously the most important. Thing and center intelligence is number,

894
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 5: ONE i, think SO i think it.

895
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:32,360
Speaker 3: IS i really think it.

896
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 5: Is you, know intelligence is is extremely important at that,

897
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 5: position and also your ability to, communicate you, know can

898
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 5: you make the, calls can you get everyone else lined?

899
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 5: Up can you help the quarterback when he when he needs?

900
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,200

00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 5: throughout his entire, Career SO.

902
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 3: I think that's most.

903
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 5: Important but, yeah in this new, scheme you, know you

904
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 5: want guys that are able to move, laterally guys that

905
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 5: are able to get up on the second level and

906
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 5: the third level of defenses and accomplished the block in.

907
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 5: Space so you know that that's really important as we move.

908
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 4: Forward last one for me and you, know, defense you

909
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 4: can never have enough corners in THE. Nfl it doesn't

910
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 4: matter what year it is and how many you got
