Speaker 1: will say, Steve, I've got some work to do in

17
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: my backyard, and you were kind enough to help me

18
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: with that because you are lending me your gas powered chainsaw.

19
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: I have to say, listen, I am not responsible for

20
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: the misuse of.

21
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: Seas that's right. Yeah, Oh no, I already signed the

22
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: liability waiver that you gave me with.

23
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: Your I don't want to hear about it, so just

24
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: be careful.

25
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got some evergreen trees that are unfortunately succumbing

26
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: to needle casts.

27
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 2: Were outside lou spruce tree doing stuff last night. I

28
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 2: was outside doing stuff.

29
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: I was outside. You know what I was doing. I

30
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: was I was keeping it simple yesterday. I was just

31
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: putting down some grass seed and some beare patches or

32
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: my lawn and stuff. And I was happy that it

33
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,559
Speaker 1: rained a little bit last night. That's always a good thing.

34
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: And you want to get the seed down early because

35
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: once it gets too hot, yeah, like it doesn't grow.

36
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it stops raining too. After a while. I was

37
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: outside clearing the lawn for so I can get my

38
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: more out. Yeah, And of course then it rained like

39
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 2: nine inches last night.

40
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you were in the you were in the

41
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,440

00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: Yes, so we got Yeah, so I won't be mowing

43
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 2: my lawn for a minute. But yeah, I was getting

44
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: that already.

45
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: Okay.

46
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: You know, it's just just that time of year and

47
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 2: every I may say this, the leaves start to come

48
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 2: out now, but until they get fully everything looks horrible.

49
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, half of it. It still looks terrible. Oh my gosh.

50
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,239
Speaker 1: You need the yeah, you need the buds to fall

51
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: off the trees and the leaves you start coming and looks.

52
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: It's so bad. It looks post apocalyptic, you know. I

53
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: mean it looks awful, like everything's dead, and you know,

54
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 2: now it's starting a couple of I can't believe it though,

55
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 2: and people know this, depending on what variety of tree

56
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: it is. And I can't land scaping. You get all

57
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 2: these exotics. You're not exietly yeah, flowering, Yeah, the stuff

58
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 2: that you that doesn't grow naturally or whatever. And man,

59
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: some of those pop quick. We have a couple of

60
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: them that, yeah, they go early.

61
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then by the time you get to Mother's

62
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: Day all the blooms off the trees.

63
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: They look dead one day and one of them had

64
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: buds the next and fully leaved yesterday. It was unbelievable.

65
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I think the seventy seven degree day yesterday and.

66
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 2: Then everything's pop over the weekend.

67
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: There was a hot day, a warmer day too.

68
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 2: I'll sell you what though. I And that's one of

69
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 2: the things I've always talked about. When you get to

70
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: a certain time of year and we all we all know,

71
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: you know, the locals know this. It's not just the

72
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: leaves pop out and you get a day here and

73
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: a day there. That's great. Now, I think we are

74
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: the people.

75
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: The people pop out. Yeah, I just said, yesterday we bloom.

76
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, look, I said, it looks like

77
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: we're all out of hibernation.

78
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm total about talking. I know, you drive, you

79
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: drive in the village. Yeah, exactly. The people bloom as

80
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 2: much as the foliage does. Right, I mean, that's there

81
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 2: about it.

82
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: Are right about that?

83
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: You don't really you kind of forget because we're all

84
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: i mean, let's face it, we're living life with our

85
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 2: heads down for like six months here.

86
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like this, the hood pulled over.

87
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 2: Then when it brightens up, you kind of you put

88
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 2: your shoulders back and you you.

89
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: Look like that and walk like that bear coming out

90
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: of the den under the log exactly.

91
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 2: So yeah, it was. It's one of those kind of

92
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 2: kind of it's going to be that kind of weekend,

93
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 2: I think. So I don't know how what the weather's

94
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: going to be, like, I mean, you look, but.

95
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: Man, oh man, let me be a little wet.

96
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 2: I think, you know, I think it's really cool that

97
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: the leaves pop out, and so do the people.

98
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: Right, So kind of looking forward to a more consistent

99
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: warm up. We're still on a little bit of a

100
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 1: roller coaster here between the fifties and the seventies, but

101
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: we'll get there eventually.

102
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 2: Uh.

103
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: We do have some Bills notes to pass along to you,

104
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: as well as getting to around the NFL, which we

105
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: will do in short order. Here First and foremost, the

106
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: Bills news. It's official Bill's Rookie Mini Camp will be

107
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: held for two days from May ninth to the tenth.

108
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: Here at one Bill's Drive. Typically a rookie mini camp

109
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: goes three days, but the Bills, along with seven other clubs,

110
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: are only doing a two day rookie mini camp. I

111
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: imagine that coach mcdermal will be asked why that is

112
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: the case by the media during media availability. But among

113
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: the teams doing just a two day rookie mini camp,

114
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl champion Eagles Cincinnati Steve one day rookie

115
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: mini camp. Talk about in and out.

116
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 2: Wow, come on me me, Yeah, okay, don't.

117
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: I always felt, at least listening to the coaches feedback,

118
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: that they valued the rookie mini camp because it's the

119
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: opportunity for them to get a lot of one on

120
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: one instruction with the rookies. Once you are into OTAs

121
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: and you've got the full roster here, a lot of

122
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: that goes away. You just don't have time to do

123
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: it during the practice this session. But during rookie mini

124
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: camp they had there's more individual hands on training.

125
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 2: Six picks for the Bengals, three in an offense, three

126
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 2: on defense, a defensive end, a linebacker, two linebackers, and

127
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: then two guards and a running back. That's their draft class,

128
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 2: so plus all the rookie free agentc that they'll have

129
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 2: in and in and around camp. So yeah, okay, two D.

130
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: They do have one of the smallest draft classes. I

131
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: will say that with only six picks. I think Minnesota

132
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: was the other. They got Chamar Stewart.

133
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 2: To me, the only name that people really recognize is

134
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 2: that guy is Shamar Stewart. They got the defensive end

135
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 2: out of Texas.

136
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: A and Falcons only had five picks too because they

137
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: had that big trade up for James Pierce.

138
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 2: Even the Vikings, who only started with four picks, took five.

139
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, so there's some small draft classes out there. So

140
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: I get some of that thinking. But yeah, still it's like,

141
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: how much are you getting done them one day? Like

142
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: they come in.

143
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 2: I mean, well they're obviously not doing any it's not

144
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 2: like a football thing thing. I mean, it's more of

145
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 2: an acclamation thing, right, I mean they're.

146
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I got to believe there's some classroom work

147
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: with regards to scheme and stuff like that. But for

148
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: be it for me to decide what's best.

149
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: Everybody, most of the other teams had had five, had

150
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 2: the normal amount that three day Rams had six, six

151
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 2: guys drafted Falcons five.

152
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. I was curious to see

153
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: the differences there. It's traditionally been a three day session

154
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 1: with the rookies.

155
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, back in the old school. Guys, man, they get

156
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 2: their hands on these yet they're there. If it was

157
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 2: a three day minutes, they're in the building seventy two hours. Yeah,

158
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 2: you know, back in the old and they're two days.

159
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: You know, if they would let them, they'd do it

160
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: back in the old school. Now it's all sports science

161
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: and acclamation and mental health and all this other stuff.

162
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 2: They're probably better for it. But yeah, you know, it

163
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: seems like what's the point.

164
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, football wise, it's interesting, to say the least. Let's

165
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: go around the NFL, presented by Kaleida Healthy, official healthcare

166

00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,280

00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: distributed to the club in advance of the NFL Draft.

171
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: His college aged son Ulbrich was directly involved in prank

172
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: calling Shador Sanders during the draft and posing as an

173
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: NFL club set to pick him. Ulbrich's son, Jacks, took

174
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: the number from Ulbrich's iPad and used it to prank

175
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: Sanders during the draft. Jacks has since apologized. The Falcons

176
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: statement reads as follows. We appreciated the NFL's swift and

177
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 1: thorough review of last week's data exposure and the event

178
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: that transpired due to it. We were proactive in addressing

179
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: the situation internally, cooperated fully with the league throughout the process,

180
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 1: and accept the discipline levied to coach Olbrick and the organization.

181
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: We're confident in our security policies and practices, and we'll

182
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: continue to emphasize adherence to them with our staff, whether

183
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: on or off premises. Additionally, the Olbrich family is working

184
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: with the organization to participate in community service initiatives. In

185

Speaker 1: dad one hundred thousand dollars and the company he works

190
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,920

293
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: the reason we're asking is unfortunately we've gotten three or

Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's just not not good. But how about it? Though,

300
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 2: it's it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing for the organization. And you

301
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 2: know because the kid's dad has some note right, you know,

302
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,720

305
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: from what I've been told, and I understand, when the

306
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: league sends out the phone numbers for the prospects or

307
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 1: the agents send out forty of them about whatever the

308
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: whoever is on that contact list, it says right at

309
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: the top, confidential. And the only people in each NFL

Speaker 2: Year Yeah, fourteen or sixteen year old, you know, twenty one.

326
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 2: of your college teammates.

327
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 1: That is a that is a that is a frat

328
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: group think schemes.

329
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 2: Yeah it sounds great.

330
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: College sounds great. Hey guys, whylet me do this? This

331
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: is gonna be awesome.

332
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 2: Sounds great and all film it. Yeah, right, sounds great

333
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 2: over a beer while you're sitting around, But when you

334
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 2: really come to pick up your phone, it's like, nah,

335
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 2: you can't do that. Something's got a snap in there

336
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 2: and say, wait, wait, wait, wait wait, that's clearly GOODA

337
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 2: that's bad.

338
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 1: The Philadelphia Eagles are exercising their fifty year option on

339
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: defensive tackle Jordan Davis. That option worth twelve point nine million,

340
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: which could be a bargain if Davis blows it up

341
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: this season with a monster year in his third NFL

342
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: season starting defensive tackle for the Eagles. Jaguars not picking

343
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: up the fifty year option for linebacker Devin Lloyd, he

344
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 1: has now set to hit twenty twenty six free agency.

345
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: Lloyd did have one hundred and thirteen tackles, two sacks,

346
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: and an interception, along with four pass breakups last season.

347
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: He was the nineteenth overall pick in that San Francisco

348
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers signed free agent offensive tackle DJ Humphries

349
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 1: to a one year deal. Spent last season in Kansas

350
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: City as a backup. Falcons expected to exercise the fifty

351
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: year option on wide receiver Drake London. That fifth year

352
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: deal is worth just over sixteen point eight million. And

353
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: then the Minnesota Vikings give outside linebacker Andrew van Ginkel

354
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: a one year extension worth twenty three million. So I

355
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: bet there's a couple of oid years in there for

356
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: that one. But he did have a monster year for

357
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 1: the Vikings last year, so good for him.

358
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Vikings, they've done a lot of things, right, I.

359
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: Think, Yeah, and their coach is pretty sharp.

360
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: He seems pretty sharp. JJ McCarthy. I don't know if

361
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 2: you saw this either, Brownie. Oh, yeah, he's ready to start,

362
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 2: you know, he's.

363
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: Somebody asked him, do you think you're ready to be

364
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback here? And he says, I know, I'm

365
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: ready to be the starting quarterback. So a lot was

366
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: made about how we answered that question yesterday. So yes,

367
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: I did see that.

368
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think I'll say this too. You know,

369
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 2: pr people were coaching him up like you got to

370
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 2: get out there.

371
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: Howel is there now because the Vikings traded for him

372
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: on draft weekend, But he'll probably be the backup.

373
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 2: I would think, absolutely, at least to start with. But

374
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 2: I you know, there's no reason to think J. J.

375
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 2: McCarthy isn't going to come in and play well. His

376
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 2: injury was is long behind him. He should be a

377
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 2: full year by the time the season roles. It'll be

378
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: a full year because he got hurt extremely early in

379
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 2: the season. We'll see yeah, and you know, I like

380
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 2: the answer. I like the answer he gave. Yeah.

381
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: Curious to see because you know, Kevin O'Connell very quickly,

382
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: after doing what he did with Sam Darnold last year,

383
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: turning his career around, is thought beginning to be thought

384
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: of as a quarterback whisper, similar to the way Sean

385
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 1: McVay was. You know, with Jared Goff resuscitating his career

386
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: after a very bad rookie year. He takes over the

387
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: Rams and you know, in two years they're in the

388
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: Super and O'Connell coached under McVeigh. So there's a little

389
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,239
Speaker 1: bit of a tree there. So we'll see what he

390
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: can do with JJ McCarthy is it looks at least

391
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: right now like he's going to be the odds on

392
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 1: favorite to be their starting QB this year. Topic of

393
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 1: discussion for you today concerns the Bill's draft class indirectly

394
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: because the question we posed to you today is which

395
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: Bill's defensive line veteran will be challenged the most by

396
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: the new additions to the roster. There are some people

397
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: that are a little bit unnoticed now after three defensive

398
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: linemen were added to the roster via the draft, you

399
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: also got some free agents that have been added to

400
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: the mix. Two ogin Joby Hoyt Bosa so three in

401
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: free agency, three in the draft, which Bills defensive line

402
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: veteran will be challenged the most by the new additions

403
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: to the roster. You let us know at eight h

404
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,080

421
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 3: in the last couple of days. On paper, this is

422
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 3: the best draft that Brendan Bean and his staff has

423
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 3: brought in. I salute them. I want them to take

424
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 3: a bow because I can actually see where everybody's going

425
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 3: to be placed and how they're gonna challenge the other

426
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 3: players on this roster for a position, whether they get

427
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 3: to fifty three or whether they get to their practice squad,

428
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 3: they're gonna challenge. Somebody's going to be leading out of here.

429
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 3: Well now on this Uh, I'm gonna use Dewan Uh.

430
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 3: I mean dion Walk, Dionna Walker, the de tackle from Kentucky.

431
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,199
Speaker 3: He's he's the special person before I go to the

432
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 3: secondary real quick, is that I really believe granted can

433
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 3: use him in the beginning and hide him, get him

434
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 3: on I r let him shot off the rest of

435
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 3: the year, Let him get what let me let me

436
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 3: get his body work together and get his back together

437
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 3: and come back after day Kwon Jones, after this last

438
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 3: year is over with, and just take over the whole

439
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 3: operation from going into the new stadium secondary wise and

440
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 3: our secondary wise. You got Jordan, you got Hancock, you

441
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,959
Speaker 3: got Strong. But it's another kid that Brandon. People slipping

442
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 3: on him that he signed as an undrafted free agent

443
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 3: on Miami Porter Junior, who is another good cornerback that's

444
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 3: gonna add in along with pushing to Davis White gonna

445
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 3: be the good grand He's going to be the godfather

446
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 3: of everybody. Benford is already a legend. You got, you

447
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 3: got your, you got Johnson, And I think I think

448
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 3: based off what I was hearing real when Brandon was

449
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 3: with you, he was speaking of but he didn't say it,

450
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 3: But I think cam Lewis is gonna go to safety.

451
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 3: So anyway, make a long story short, I applaud them.

452
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 3: This is a good draft. It's a good team based

453
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 3: off what they're gonna add to what we already have.

454
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 3: Look going forward, I think be great. Now. This is

455
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 3: the favor I need. I got a call well back

456
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 3: back in March. I reached out to the Common Council

457
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 3: of the City of Buffalo and we were abre talking

458
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 3: about Ritt Morrow aka Slick Rick, and they were the

459
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 3: City of Buffalo contacted me, let'd say about about a

460
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 3: week ago, and they wanted to get in contact with

461
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 3: Rick so he can contact them at the city Chamber.

462
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 3: They want to give him a proclamation from the city.

463
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 3: I need you, and I'm saying his lives. I already

464
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 3: gave the number to my great friend who answered the phone.

465
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 3: I need Steve and I need you as my brothers,

471
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 3: but I'm older now, so I don't have this contact.

472
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 3: If you guys can do that for me, I don't

Speaker 3: love you guys. Thanks so much. Brandon bean in the staff,

475
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,720

476
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 3: roster is gonna be turned over. A lot of veterans

477
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,760

Speaker 4: Thanks.

481
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, look, it was a good draft.

482
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: I is it his best? I don't know. I mean

483
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: you might have to say. Something has to be said

484
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: about the twenty eighteen draft class with Josh Allen, Tremaine, Edmunds,

485
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: Harrison Phillips, Tarren Johnson, Saran Neil Wyatt Teller, and Ray

486
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: Ray McCloud. I mean most of those guys, all those

487
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 1: guys are still playing in the league. Yeah, I mean

488
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,360
Speaker 1: that was a pretty good draft class. And I don't

489
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: know if he's topped it. This is good. This one's

490
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: gonna come close. I want to put it second right now,

491
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: before we know for sure about these guys. I'll listen

492
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: to that a little early. It's a little early.

493
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 2: It looks great after four days.

494
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: He's right, it looks good on paper.

495
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 2: Tell me how it looks after four years.

496
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: Looks good on paper. He's right about that. Yeah, Yeah,

497
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: we gotta wait, Yeah, I'll wait.

498
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 2: Also, I'm going to listen about Darryl Porter, cornerback, undrafted

499
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 2: rookie free agent out of the University of Miami, Darryl Porter.

500
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: We'll see how he plays. He's going to get a chance.

501
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 2: They've got three wide receivers in their rookie undrafted rookie class,

502
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 2: got a tight end in their undrafted rookie class. Two

503
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: defensive ends, a linebacker, yeah, and safety.

504
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: So and nothing's going to be made official until they

505
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: get in here and sign and pass physicals.

506
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,679

Speaker 2: I appreciate it. I'm thank you for looking out for him.

521
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: Uh let's go to John in Buffalo. Next.

522
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 2: What's up John, how are you doing today? Good?

523
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 4: Good?

524
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 5: Good?

525
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 6: Hey listen, I won't I'll make this pretty brief. First

526
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 6: of all, I love what you guys do. I love

527
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 6: watching everything, listening to the the the content that you

528
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 6: put out there is just phenomenal. My thing is the

529
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 6: defensive line veteran that will be challenged, in my opinion,

530
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 6: will be Daykwon Jones. I think he's on a little notice.

531
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 6: I think he's done well, but I also believe that

532
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 6: with these new additions, I don't feel he's holding his

533
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 6: own to where that Oliver could make his actual do

534
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 6: what he needs to do and do well. I mean,

535
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 6: he suffered a little bit in the season, and I

536
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 6: think that was due to Daikwon Jones. That's my opinion.

537
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 6: I think that Daikwon will have a better season, but

538
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 6: I think he's the one on notice. Thanks guys, that's

539
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 6: all from me. I appreciate your time.

540
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: All right, thank you for the call. John. Yeah, Daikwon

541
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: turns thirty four this year. I mean he's a little

542
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: long in the tooth, and when he first got here,

543
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: I thought he was a major improvement for the defensive interior.

544
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: He was a stalwart in there. Yeah, had the peck

545
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: injury in twenty twenty four in the London game and

546
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 1: missed most of the season, came back late in the

547
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: year playoffs, and then last year comes back healthy and.

548
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 2: It was twenty three. He got injured in twenty four.

549
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: Twenty three, sorry, yes, twenty three, he got injured in

550
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: London twenty four, got through most of the season healthy

551
00:27:55,640 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean it's a hard position play down

552
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: in there, man, and there's not many guys that do

553
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: it into their mid thirties. There are exceptions, like kalay

554
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 1: Is Campbell, but they are few and far between.

555
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's a good It's as good as a

556
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 2: guess as any.

557
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: He will be pushed, He'll be a question by a

558
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 1: couple of guys.

559
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 2: It's hard. Yeah, it's hard. Like Brownie said, it's grueling

560
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:24,439
Speaker 2: in there, and uh yeah, it's a good answer. And

561
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 2: he probably is. A guy like Dian Walker coming in

562
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 2: who's three hundred and fifty pounds, just bigger and stronger

563
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 2: and at this point proper probably more athletic, just because

564
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,479
Speaker 2: Dake One's, you know, got so many miles on him.

565
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 2: He's it's hard to be that nimble anymore. So, uh yeah,

566
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 2: that's a it's a good answer.

567
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go to Dave in Orchard Park next. What

568
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: do you got for us? Daviere on one Bill's Live.

569
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 7: Good afternoon, gentlemen, thanks for taking the call. I think

570
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 7: all of them, the entire defensive line should be challenged

571
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 7: and they should be nervous. This line has been inconsistent

572
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 7: for the last several of years and has done in

573
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 7: the Bills numerous times in the playoffs. Our last defensive

574
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 7: line player that led the team a double digit sacks

575
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 7: was Leonard Floyd with ten and a half and he's

576
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 7: now in Atlanta bya SF. This line has been the

577
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 7: reason why this Bill's defense has been pathetic over the

578
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 7: last few years in the playoffs, and Alan blames himself

579
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 7: all the time. Alan can't play defense. I'm glad that

580
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 7: they brought in Holk and Okanjobi and Bosa and all

581
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 7: these draft picks. Hopefully this entire defensive line is challenged

582
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 7: and gets nervous.

583
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I mean they're on notice, and it doesn't

584
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: take a rocket scientist to figure out that the personnel

585
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: department and the coaching staff felt major changes and major

586
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: additions were needed. Yeah.

587
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 2: Brownie pointed out they got five years younger on average

588
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 2: age since the last time they played a game in January.

589
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 2: You know, obviously some of that from the age leaving.

590
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 2: But they drafted three defensive linemen in their first four

591
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: picks of this draft. There's got there. I think there's

592
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 2: something in that.

593
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and and look, if you look at the

594
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: general track record of this football team during the being

595
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: in McDermott regime. If you're a player taken in the

596
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: first three picks, more often than not, if you're not

597
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 1: a starter right away, you are by year two, year

598
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: three at the latest. There are exceptions. You know, everybody's

599
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: going to bring up the Kyrie Elmpic and I get that.

600
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: But the vast majority of picks made by this team

601
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: in rounds one through three have become starting players, some

602
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: sooner than others, but they have a pretty good hit

603
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: rate in terms of that, and with the talent that's

604
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: coming in here, I would anticipate it continues and it

605
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: may stretch all the way to round four. Knowing Dion

606
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: Walker was a fourth round draft choice. I got to

607
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: take a break here. When we come back, more of

608
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: your phone calls, Mike and Orchard Park will lead us off.

609
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: Which defensive line veteran do you think will be challenged

610
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: them most by the new additions to the roster eight O,

611
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: three oh five fifty your calls. Next here on One

612

619
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 2: What's up Mike, Hey, guys, how you doing good?

620
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 5: Thanks?

621
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 8: Thanks for having me on the show. And hey, I

622
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 8: want to say thanks guys for bringing Brandon being on.

623
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 8: I think it was Monday. You know, I thought he

624
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 8: bought some good insight kind of his approach on the

625
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 8: draft and kind of where we are as a team.

626
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 8: So that was very insightful. So where this is what

627
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 8: I'm thinking, I'm gonna say at Oliver Man, you know,

628
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 8: it's it's it's it's been known that out there there's

629
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 8: been excuses made. Let's be honest with that. Oliver, well,

630
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 8: why he hasn't been as successful as we want him

631
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 8: to be as a player. Right, So, with the additions

632
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 8: of Sanders, Jackson Walker, like, I get it the rookies,

633
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 8: but at the same time, I feel all three of

634
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 8: them players are hungry, They're young, athletic, They're going to

635
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 8: be coming out there. I mean, training camp is gonna

636
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 8: be a battleman and at the end of the day,

637
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 8: I think that's what Brandon Bey wants. You know that.

638
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 8: That's kind of an inception I got from when he

639
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 8: came on your show. He wants he you know, he

640
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 8: wants it competitive. He you know, like, I feel we're

641
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 8: kind of moving, moving our scheme around as a defense,

642
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 8: and uh.

643
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:42,719
Speaker 9: You know you just move over, man.

644
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 8: I I just we we got to see some more

645
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 8: interior pressure from this defense. And I've been you know,

646
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 8: when you look at this team, I don't really feel

647
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 8: as the outside as much as it's the interior pressure

648
00:32:54,840 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 8: and and and and one more thing, guys, Bosa, I.

649
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 7: Love him man.

650
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 8: You know, like he had opportunity to stay in the

651
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 8: big city with his brother, but he wanted to come

652
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 8: back to a small city and focus on Buffalo, come

653
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 8: to a football town. I'm expecting big teams from him

654
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 8: as well. So so overall that's my opinion.

655
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: Okay, thanks Mike. I'll say I'll say this, I don't

656
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: disagree with you at all. I think we can all

657
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: agree that Ed had a great season in twenty twenty three,

658
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: to the tune of nine and a half sacks. He

659
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: was a consistent weekend and week out performer, and for

660
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: whatever reason, that weekly consistency went away last year. He

661
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: had some bright spots, played a great game against the

662
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: Lions where he dominated, and it's like, well, geez, where

663
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: was that the previous twelve weeks Because we just didn't

664
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: see it enough, and we certainly didn't see it as

665
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: consistently as we did the season prior. So how do

666
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: you get him back to that? And you see what

667
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 1: the Bills have done. First with their coaching staff. They

668
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: had Ryan Nielson as a senior defensive assistant. He's expected

669
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: to work with the defensive line, and Coach West, who's

670
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 1: the defensive line coach, and then you have an assistant

671
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: defensive line coach, and Jason Rebrovitch, who's a veteran coach

672
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: in this league who's also going to be there. And

673
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: then you see them add six new guys, six new

674
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: defensive linemen, three in free agency, three in the draft,

675
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: and you say, you know what, if the coaches can't

676
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: get it out of them, people breathing down his neck

677
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 1: will because Steve, I don't know about you, but TJ.

678
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: Sanders has the exact same skill set as Ed Oliver

679
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 1: in terms of the type of defensive tackle he is,

680
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: and he's about twenty pounds heavier and five inches taller.

681
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 2: Right, it's yeah. You bring new guys into the room,

682
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 2: particularly young guys, and this is one of the things

683
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 2: that happens at this time of year all the time.

684
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 2: And we talk to these guys as they come in,

685
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 2: particularly the guys who were rookies last year, like Keon,

686
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 2: you come in to sit down with them, and they

687
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 2: realize now they see another draft class come in. It's like, oh,

688
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 2: here comes these these guys are probably gonna make it too.

689
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: So well, you're they're gonna put them. They're gonna be

690
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: making assessments like my first day in pads, like oh,

691
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: this guy can really play.

692
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 2: You start doing some mental math and evaluations. You come

693
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 2: up with your own depth chart and somewhere you've got

694
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 2: to fit in there. Yeah, it's it's not easy to

695
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 2: see your possible replacement hired on national TV. Yeah, and

696
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 2: it and it does. Yeah, the message is clear.

697
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: You don't perform, We've got somebody else who will. Yeah

698
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 1: to Bobby in Buffalo next, what's up, Bobby?

699
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 5: Hey, guys, how you doing good? Oh? Good? Now I'm

700
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 5: looking at looking at the TV. Wanted to answer the question,

701
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,959
Speaker 5: what what defensive line veteran will be challenged the most

702
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 5: by the new additions to the roster. The roster very easy,

703
00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 5: simple and easy. Joey Bosa, that's what That's who I

704
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 5: think is going to be challenged the most, Joey Bosa

705
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,880
Speaker 5: because because I believe Joey Bosa is one of the

706
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 5: most impact defensive linemen in the NFL. Okay, and and

707
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 5: and you know what that the one thing that guys

708
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 5: help me with this. The one thing I cannot understand

709
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 5: about about Brandon Bean is this, and and please answer

710
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 5: me this. Every year in the draft, it seems like

711
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 5: every year in the draft, the Buffalo Bills always go

712
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,760
Speaker 5: for defense. I don't understand why they why they're getting

713
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 5: so many decent defensive players when actually the help is

714
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 5: really on offense. Okay, because for years, for years and

715
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 5: for years that I've been watching this team, the defenses,

716
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 5: the defense has always been the trademark of the team.

717
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, And and and Steve Task

718
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 5: you can detest to this too, because the defense always

719
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 5: been the trademark back in the day, since since I

720
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 5: would say the Bruce Smith, Cornelius Bennett, Shane conlin era

721
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 5: I'm talking about back. I'm talking about back in the

722
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 5: day when Steve Tasker was playing with it.

723
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bobby, this is every I get it. But what

724
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,720
Speaker 2: you're saying, but I don't know if I can agree

725
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 2: with you about this era. I mean, and plus I'll

726
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 2: say this too. Most people don't think about the Bills

727
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 2: being a different team every year, but it is a

728
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 2: very different team every year, and under the Sean McDermott era.

729
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 2: Since twenty eighteen when they drafted Josh, everything has been

730
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 2: different about this franchise, and it needed to be because

731
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 2: they were in a seventeen year drought. If it was

732
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 2: back in when the defense was the calling card, I

733
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,399
Speaker 2: think the offense is the calling card and has been

734
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 2: since Josh has been an MVP caliber player since twenty twenty.

735
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 2: Every year since twenty twenty, you could make a case

736
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 2: for Josh being the guy as the MV and and

737
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't go back and look at

738
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 2: you know.

739
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: I will then because right because it's not accurate.

740
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not accurate. I think I think it's pretty

741
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 2: fifty to fifty offense defense.

742
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, this year was an exception.

743
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 2: This year was one different or two different.

744
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,359
Speaker 1: Well, six out of nine. We're on defense this year,

745
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 1: So you want to talk about it this year, that's fine,

746
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 1: But you go to the twenty twenty two, even the

747
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one draft, Yes, they go Rousseau bash him first,

748
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: but then it's Brown and Doyle after that, and a receiver.

749
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 1: So three of the first five picks defense, and then

750
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two it's Elam in the first round, but

751
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 1: then you have Cook followed by Bernard and Shakir. So

752
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: that's your first four picks there, two offense, two defense,

753
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: and then twenty twenty three it's Kincaid and Osiris Torrance

754
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 1: the first two picks, and then last year it's Keon

755
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: Coleman and then yes cole Bishop, Dwayne Carter, but they

756
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: got Ray Davis, Cedric Van Prank Granger. That's still three

757
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: of the first five picks are on offense. So I

758
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 1: don't know where this narrative comes from.

759
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got it. It's it's yeah, And I don't

760
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 2: know why. I don't know why. You think joe Bosa

761
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 2: is gonna feel like he's challenged. I think Joey Bosa

762
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 2: is going to be self motivated to come in and

763
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 2: make a statement on a new team. And I don't

764
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 2: think there's any way signing a one year deal that

765
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,720
Speaker 2: like he did, that he's going to come in unmotivated.

766
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 2: He's going to try and get another contract. Yeah, so

767
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,280
Speaker 2: he's gonna come and he probably welcomes the challenge.

768
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 1: I also think that bos is probably going to be

769
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: a passer a specialist most weeks. I don't see him

770
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 1: playing a lot of first and ten snaps. I think

771
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,399
Speaker 1: they want to save his best for the money down,

772
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: which is third down or obvious passing situations. If it's

773
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 1: second and fifteen, he's going to be on the field.

774
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: If it's third and six or more, he's on the fields.

775
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 1: Right third and four or more, he's on the field.

776
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 2: And I'll say this too, I do not subscribe. I've

777
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 2: heard people call in our show and other shows and

778
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 2: they make the statement about how Josh needs help. The

779
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 2: offense needs help because they don't finish games, and I

780
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 2: think that is completely inaccurate, completely inaccurate. You can point

781
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 2: to games where they haven't been able to finish offensively

782
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 2: or whatever, but that that is not the That is

783
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 2: the exception, not the rule. Josh walks off the field

784
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 2: a lot in late in the fourth quarter, with the lead,

785
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 2: after having given the team the lead, and you can

786
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 2: go back at all the you know, all the obvious

787
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 2: examples of that, and we don't need to go into

788
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:25,240
Speaker 2: that here. But and that's you know, this this whole

789
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 2: stuff about Brandon Bean and the wide receivers and all that.

790
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,800
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, he's right. This is a team

791
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 2: that was picked to go forth in the in the

792
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 2: division last year and ended up scoring a franchise record

793
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 2: in points in a season. I mean, they were lighting

794
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 2: it up, and that's gonna they're using that formula to

795
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,919
Speaker 2: go forward. And the fact they don't have an age,

796
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 2: they don't have an AJ Brown or a you know,

797
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 2: a Calvin Johnson or somebody like that, even a Steph Diggs.

798
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 2: Don't forget the eight thirty million dollars last year, so

799
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 2: they didn't have Steph Diggs. So I think they like

800
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 2: this recipe much much better than the alternative that so

801
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:08,439
Speaker 2: many people.

802
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,320
Speaker 1: The philosophical shift in what they feel their offense needs

803
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 1: and it's not a number one receiver and they feel

804
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,359
Speaker 1: with the success they had last year, they don't need one,

805
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: and they're moving forward that way. And that's just the

806
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: way it is.

807
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,359
Speaker 2: They got a great wide receiver. I mean they got

808
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,439
Speaker 2: a great running back, got a great running back room.

809
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 2: They like the way this offense shapes up in its

810
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:27,280
Speaker 2: personnel side.

811
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 1: Gotta take a break here. When we come back, Lee

812
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: and Almira will lead us off as we're still taking

813
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 1: your phone calls on which defensive line veteran will be

814
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:37,840
Speaker 1: challenged the most by the new additions to the roster.

815
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 1: We're back in the flash here on one Bill's Live.

816
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 1: Stay with us back here on one Bill's Live. As

817
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,839
Speaker 1: we're talking with you about which defensive line veteran do

818
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: you think will be challenged the most by the new

819
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 1: additions to the roster? Eight O three oh five fifty

820
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: the number to get on board, and we go right

821
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: to Lee in Elmira next, What do you got for us?

822
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 3: Lee, good afternoon.

823
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 10: I appreciate you guys taking my call.

824
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 1: Sure.

825
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 10: The reason why I'm calling is because on your topic,

826
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,879
Speaker 10: I think it's actually going to be Ed Oliver due

827
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 10: to his inconsistent play. I think he's the one. He's

828
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 10: the one that's going to be the odd man out.

829
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 5: If you look.

830
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 10: At the free agent signings, are the free agent signings

831
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 10: we got and the draft picks they are bigger, stronger,

832
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 10: and maybe even faster. It would not surprise me if

833
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 10: sometime before Week one you see that Ed Oliver gets

834
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 10: traded because I feel like he's the odd man out

835
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 10: when it comes all that.

836
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I get where you're coming from, Lee.

837
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 1: In terms of pushing him, I don't know if it's

838
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: going to push him off the roster. Just signed an

839
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: extension over a year ago. And look, I'll never say

840
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 1: never about anything. If Brandon Bean feels he's making his

841
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: team better, he's gonna do it, whatever that might be.

842
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: But you're in to win the whole kit and kaboodle

843
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: year here, and you don't get better by getting rid

844
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 1: of talented players. And I don't think any of us

845
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 1: would argue that Ed Oliver is supremely talented. The question

846
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 1: is can you get that supreme talent out of him

847
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: every single week? Last year? You did not, And I

848
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 1: think they're trying this tactic to try to get that

849
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 1: out of him by putting a player behind him on

850
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,399
Speaker 1: the depth chart in TJ Sanders, who has every bit

851
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 1: the skill set that he has and he's bigger and stronger.

852
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean it's going to push him off the

853
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: roster might affect his playing time, might not get might

854
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: not get the majority of snaps, might not be getting

855
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,799
Speaker 1: fifty snaps a game. If he doesn't improve his level

856
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 1: of consistency, and TJ will be on the field, he'll

857
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: have he may I don't think he's moving off the roster. No,

858
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 1: I do on either, but he may have his role

859
00:43:55,400 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: altered and where he rotates in may change. And that's

860
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 1: that's the difference. And we'll see. But it's a good answer.

861
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: And I and you're right.

862
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at the veterans, it's gonna

863
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 2: be Rousseau, it's gonna be a j Panessa, de Kwon, Jones,

864
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 2: Ed Oliver. And you know you can you could make

865
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 2: a case for guys like obviously, like Javon Solomon. You

866
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 2: know it's a guy who's got one year in and

867
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,799
Speaker 2: like Dwayne Carter's got one year in. I think most

868
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 2: people on the tips of their tongues keep those those

869
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 2: prominent players who have signed second contracts. You start looking

870
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 2: at them in a different light when the numbers get

871
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:40,240
Speaker 2: to be short and you really don't want to release

872
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 2: a shiny new rookie who has some promise now. But

873
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,439
Speaker 2: somebody's got to somebody's gonna get pushed or sat down.

874
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,360
Speaker 2: And that's the question today, And you're right, it's not

875
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 2: we're talking about. It's not easy. It's not easy. And

876
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 2: it could be that Landon Jackson explodes and then it

877
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,879
Speaker 2: becomes aj Panessa and Greg Russeau and all these other

878
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,399
Speaker 2: you know, the edge guys. Yep, instead of.

879
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 1: Maybe Landon Jackson is playing first and second down and right,

880
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: he's the guy playing the bass downs before Bosa comes

881
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:08,319
Speaker 1: on the field, not agent right.

882
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 2: And Bosa takes the von Miller role from a year

883
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,879
Speaker 2: that could happen. So it depends on which guy comes

884
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,720
Speaker 2: in and really blows it up as a Dion Walker.

885
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 2: Then you know it's a defensive tackle room or the

886
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 2: position group. And if it's Landon Jackson, you know, it's

887
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,280
Speaker 2: a different conversation to Alex in Pittsburgh.

888
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:27,240
Speaker 1: Next, what's up Alex?

889
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 11: Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call. It's big honor.

890
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 11: I listen to you guys all the time driving a

891
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,399
Speaker 11: truck there in Pittsburgh. And I got a quick question

892
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 11: and then maybe calm and my question is I just

893
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 11: saw that I guess we release Sam Martin. I don't

894
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 11: know if we have anyone else on the practice squad

895
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 11: or being plans on siding someone else and in the

896
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 11: autom man out, I think on the defensive line, I

897
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 11: totally disagree with the last caller at Oliver is not

898
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 11: good anywhere, at least not this year with all that

899
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 11: dead cap. But maybe Dwayne Carter and maybe Solomon might

900
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,800
Speaker 11: be on the way out. So that'll be my opinion.

901
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,839
Speaker 11: Maybe say some sellary cap. But and I just want

902
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,479
Speaker 11: to uh, I'll hang up and listene what you guys

903
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 11: have to say. It again, thank you very much for

904
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 11: taking my call. It's and always in honor to talk

905
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 11: to you guys, and God bless to have my say.

906
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: All right, Thanks Alex. Drive safe out there.

907
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,799
Speaker 2: They've got two punters on the roster, Jake Kmarta and

908
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 2: Brad Robbins. They were both drafted by different teams in

909
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 2: the NFL, so they've got a little bit and they've

910
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,360
Speaker 2: got some chops.

911
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:25,759
Speaker 4: Yeah.

912
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,799
Speaker 1: Camarta was in Tampa Bay, Brad Robbins was in Cincinnati,

913
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,319
Speaker 1: and Steve and I actually got a chance to chat

914
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:32,720
Speaker 1: with those guys a little bit after.

915
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 2: They had during the They were just milling.

916
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 1: Around doing some workouts here in the building and we

917
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 1: just kind of introduced ourselves and we were shooting the

918
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:40,760
Speaker 1: breeze with them a little.

919
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 2: Bit, talking golf.

920
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much. But yeah, it's they already have two

921
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 1: punters on the roster and I would imagine those two

922
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:50,840
Speaker 1: are going to go into training camp just competing with

923
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:54,319
Speaker 1: one another. I don't think they'll add another one. So yeah,

924
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,840
Speaker 1: they're covered at punter. And then as for you know,

925
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: who's on notice, I don't know that at Dwayne Carter

926
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 1: being a third round draft choice is punted, you know,

927
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,360
Speaker 1: after one year. I think there was some promise that

928
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,720
Speaker 1: he was showing right before he suffered the wrist injury,

929
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:12,360
Speaker 1: and then his season kind of went up and smoke

930
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: after that. But that guy was making a difference in

931
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,399
Speaker 1: that Houston game in Week five, which was a game

932
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 1: the Bills ultimately lost, but he was making plays and

933
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 1: I think that was that might have been the one

934
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 1: game where they did not have Ed Oliver and Dwayne

935
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 1: Carter got a lot more playing time. I think he

936
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: had three tackles for loss in that game and two

937
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: third down stops like he you noticed him.

938
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, he And it was really unfortunate that he went

939
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 2: down with an injury. And I think two before they

940
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 2: brought him back because of the nature of the injury.

941
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 2: I don't know, well, I can't remember exactly what it was.

942
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,280
Speaker 1: It was a risk right, busted risks.

943
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 2: I think he was one of those guys saying, you

944
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 2: know what, we like this guy. We're winning games. We

945
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 2: got to going, let's hide him out and kate and

946
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 2: just use him as a break glass in case of

947
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 2: emergency coming back. And I kind of hit him out

948
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 2: a little bit last year in the hopes they bring

949
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 2: him back, give him a full year to get healthy.

950
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:05,840
Speaker 2: And now you know they I think they really like

951
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 2: what he can do. So yeah, and that's one of

952
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 2: the names that we brought up.

953
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 1: I mean, a guy like Javon Solomon, you know, if

954
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,760
Speaker 1: if he doesn't look what did we hear? They wanted

955
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: to get bigger, stronger, and longer. Javon Solomon's strong, He's

956
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 1: got some pass rush clout, but he's not long. Does

957
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,359
Speaker 1: that hurt him in the evaluation to the point where

958
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 1: maybe he winds up on the practice squad this year

959
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 1: instead of the active roster. I don't think they like

960
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,640
Speaker 1: getting rid of draft picks that they feel still have

961
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 1: promise and growth within them, but it might see him

962
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 1: land on the practice squad.

963
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 2: That's and him being here for a year and then

964
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:45,919
Speaker 2: wanting to change kind of the prototype of what they

965
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 2: will have nothing to do with. They still got us

966
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 2: line up and see who plays best rush year this offseason.

967
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 2: So if Solomon shows up and plays great, he's in.

968
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 2: It's that simple. They're not going to get rid of

969
00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,840
Speaker 2: him because all of a sudden he got short and smaller.

970
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 2: They don't know. Yeah, it's all about this is why

971
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 2: we say challenge. It's it's going to be a challenge

972
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 2: for these guys to produce within the group and who

973
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 2: the highest production guys are going to stay and the

974
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 2: lower ones are not.

975
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 1: Break time for us here, we will take your phone

976
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 1: calls after we speak with Sam Pittman, head coach of

977
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,760
Speaker 1: the Arkansas Razorbacks, going to talk a little Landon Jackson

978
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 1: with him to kick off our number two. When we

979
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 1: return here on One Bill's Live presented by Colid of Health,

980
00:49:29,760 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio. The One Bill's Live presented by

981

Speaker 1: Kalida Health. All right now our number two here on

982
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:23,800
Speaker 1: Wednesday edition of One Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

983
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 1: with you and pleased to be joined now by the

984
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 1: head coach of Arkansas football led them to a Liberty

985
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 1: Bowl victory over Texas Tech at the end of last season.

986
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 1: It's Sam Pittman joining us on the line here, and coach,

987
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 1: thanks for giving us some time. I think you know

988
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 1: why we're why we got you on the show here.

989
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 1: We got to talk a little Landon Jackson with you,

990
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: and I gotta say the thing I wanted to ask you,

991
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,320
Speaker 1: because I think you can really speak to this from

992
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: a true expert perspective. You know, being a long time

993
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 1: offensive line coach yourself, what do you think shows up

994
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 1: on film the most with Landon Jackson that as a

995
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: you know, a former line coach, would have you concerned

996
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 1: going into a game against that guy.

997
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 12: Well, it's length would be the first thing that you

998
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 12: know his arm length is. Before I wasn't as concerned

999
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,759
Speaker 12: about his get off the ball because we had to

1000
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 12: work on it. But tell you what, now, his get

1001
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,879
Speaker 12: off is something. And if he can get an edge

1002
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,600
Speaker 12: on you, you know he's hard because he's so long

1003
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,480
Speaker 12: and he's and he's fast. We moved him inside some

1004
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 12: and rushed a little bit there too, and I thought

1005
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:38,320
Speaker 12: that was great. For him because of his quickness and

1006
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 12: obviously his length in there as well, So on those guards,

1007
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,400
Speaker 12: you know, So that would be the first two. And

1008
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:49,799
Speaker 12: then he's got a big time motor. And so those

1009
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 12: are the things that would be concerning to me as

1010
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 12: an officsive line coach.

1011
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 2: We see one of the things we don't get a

1012
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 2: chance to see doing at this level at the NFL

1013
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 2: playing on Sundays you do on Saturdays, is you've got

1014
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,760
Speaker 2: a guy like Lannon Jackson who is a completely different

1015
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 2: dude three years from the time he comes in as

1016
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,359
Speaker 2: a freshman to the time he gets to his where

1017
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:12,160
Speaker 2: you got him on the field all the time. Give

1018
00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 2: us an idea of what you saw from beginning to

1019
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:17,720
Speaker 2: end of his time at Arkansas.

1020
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 12: Well, I think you know, with him, I believe that

1021
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 12: he really liked Arkansas out of high school. We just were,

1022
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 12: you know, unfortunately, we weren't very good at that time,

1023
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 12: and and and I don't know if that's why we

1024
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:33,839
Speaker 12: lost him, but that was part of it. And then

1025
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 12: when the coaching change came, he basically contacted us. And

1026
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:43,920
Speaker 12: so I've seen him mature. He's always he's got a

1027
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:48,800
Speaker 12: great family and as I told a lot of NFL scouts.

1028
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,840
Speaker 12: He's gotten better for us every single year, and I

1029
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,879
Speaker 12: believe he's going to get better in the NFL every

1030
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,879
Speaker 12: single year because he wants to. He's got greater leadership abilities.

1031
00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 12: He's one of those guys that you know didn't come

1032
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,399
Speaker 12: in here in the NIL era and you know, say,

1033
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 12: I have to have this, never threaten me. Let's put

1034
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 12: it like that. And I have high respect for guys

1035
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 12: like that. And obviously we want to pay him what

1036
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 12: we felt like we could and what his worth was.

1037
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 12: But just a guy that's non confrontational, a guy that's

1038
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 12: matured each and every year, he's gotten bigger, he's gotten

1039
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:25,279
Speaker 12: really strong. You know, he had acl coming in here,

1040
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 12: so that very first spring he was not able to practice,

1041
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 12: but we've never had one bit of a problem with

1042
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 12: that either. So surgeons are so much better than they

1043
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:36,399
Speaker 12: used to be, and and you know, he didn't miss

1044
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:40,839
Speaker 12: game time or anything like that. So he's just gotten bigger, stronger.

1045
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,680
Speaker 12: And the one thing that I will say, his explosiveness

1046
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 12: has improved greatly since he's been here over the last

1047
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:49,160
Speaker 12: three years.

1048
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Coach, just to kind of dovetail off you

1049
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 1: what you said about him, still having some ceiling to reach,

1050
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 1: you know, here at the highest level of football. To

1051
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 1: what degree do you feel he's refined himself as a

1052
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 1: pass rusher through his college years.

1053
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,560
Speaker 12: I think he's just getting better, and I think he's

1054
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 12: got work to do in that area, and I think

1055
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 12: he will. And I think where he went in the draft,

1056
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,320
Speaker 12: I thought that was a really good deal for the Bills.

1057
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:22,919
Speaker 12: You know, I did, obviously, I've been in a long time.

1058
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 12: I thought he, you know, might get drafted much higher

1059
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 12: than what he did. I think he's and I think

1060
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 12: he has something to prove. He's that type of kid

1061
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 12: and and has that mentality. But he's going to go

1062
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,719
Speaker 12: in there and he's going to work. He's going to

1063
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 12: be a great team player, and he's going to be

1064
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:46,200
Speaker 12: fit in I think wonderfully with the Bills, And I

1065
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,320
Speaker 12: just feel like his best balls ahead of him, because

1066
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 12: I think he's gotten better each and every year that

1067
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:52,479
Speaker 12: he was here.

1068
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,879
Speaker 2: One of the unique things about him we found out

1069
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 2: after the draft, you know, we don't really dive deep

1070
00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 2: on our end of it in these guys, like the

1071
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 2: coaches and like you guys do, is his unique personal life.

1072
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 2: He's got a wife and child. I mean, he's a

1073
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:07,839
Speaker 2: he seems like about six or seven years further down

1074
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 2: the road than maybe what you'd think a college kid

1075
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:10,319
Speaker 2: would be.

1076
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 4: Well, let me give you example. Grace.

1077
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 12: His wife, Grace worked force, beautiful, beautiful person, beautiful in

1078
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:26,360
Speaker 12: every way, parents the same same way. He went and

1079
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,960
Speaker 12: with some of his nil money bought a home and

1080
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:30,600
Speaker 12: he sold it.

1081
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 4: He's just an older guy.

1082
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 12: But I attribute that to his family, his upbringing, and

1083
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 12: I and Grace and her family and and uh, but they.

1084
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:41,640
Speaker 4: Came in here.

1085
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 12: Grace, you know, was with him at LSU, and she

1086
00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:48,240
Speaker 12: didn't think too much of Arkansas. You know, in the recruiting,

1087
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,600
Speaker 12: I've recruited her harder than him, to be honest, and

1088
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 12: and she worked here in the building. But I just

1089
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 12: attribute all what he is and and to his maturity,

1090
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 12: but also to the family and the upbringing.

1091
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 1: I want to take you back to the twenty twenty

1092
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,320
Speaker 1: three season for a second, if I could, coach Landon

1093
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:11,440
Speaker 1: has a huge game against Alabama, career high eleven tackles,

1094
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 1: three and a half sacks in that game, you guys

1095
00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:17,280
Speaker 1: almost won that game. What do you remember most about

1096
00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 1: his performance specifically in that game?

1097
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 12: Just a physicality and I think he's he's like that.

1098
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 12: I mean, I think he plays up in the opponents,

1099
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 12: you know, if you can hype up the tackle that

1100
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:36,040
Speaker 12: he's over and all that. I think he plays his game,

1101
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 12: goes up against a bigger opponents, and I just remember

1102
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 12: they couldn't block him, you know, and gave us a

1103
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:47,960
Speaker 12: chance to win the game there at the end. Unfortunately

1104
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,839
Speaker 12: we didn't, but I can remember him being all over

1105
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:56,200
Speaker 12: the field, and that guy, that guy that I thought

1106
00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 12: that he would be the entire time he was here.

1107
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:01,319
Speaker 12: Was kind of a breakthrough game for him.

1108
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:06,840
Speaker 2: Actually, well, we know that, you guys, you're never not busy.

1109
00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:11,400
Speaker 2: I know, your neck deep in it. How soon do

1110
00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:14,600
Speaker 2: you start thinking about Alabama A and M on August thirtieth,

1111
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 2: You guys start to wind up for that pretty quick.

1112
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 4: Well, I wish we could.

1113
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 12: We have a few more scholarships left, have a couple

1114
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 12: of guys coming in today and tomorrow, but I'd like

1115
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,960
Speaker 12: to get it wrapped up by the weekend if we can,

1116
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 12: and then head to obviously spring recruiting with the coaches

1117
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 12: and I can have time to start doing a little

1118
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,920
Speaker 12: bit more breakdowns over our first three opponents.

1119
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 4: But it's just you know.

1120
00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 12: With the calendar how it is and the portal being

1121
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,919
Speaker 12: open after spring ball, which is still very very confusing

1122
00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 12: to me and a lot of coaches. I'm sure, but

1123
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:58,160
Speaker 12: you know, don't You have spring ball to complete your

1124
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 12: team and then the portal opens, then you have to

1125
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 12: figure it out. So it doesn't make a lot of

1126
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:08,160
Speaker 12: sense to me. But anyway, we'll get on that. We

1127
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 12: still got probably through this weekend and then hopefully we're

1128
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:12,160
Speaker 12: settled in a little bit.

1129
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 1: Coach, I wanted to touch on something you mentioned about

1130
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: Landon as a leader two years a captain like you

1131
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 1: don't see that terribly often. What do you feel it

1132
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: was that made him such an effective and respected captain

1133
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,320
Speaker 1: amongst his teammates the last two years.

1134
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:30,960
Speaker 12: Well, I think you have to have the work ethic,

1135
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:32,920
Speaker 12: you know. I don't think you can lead with your mouth.

1136
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 12: I think you have to lead with whom you are

1137
00:58:36,120 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 12: and your every day and your accountability. And I think

1138
00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:44,040
Speaker 12: that's exactly who he is. Now, what does a good

1139
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,560
Speaker 12: leader do? He talks? Now, when he talks, he has

1140
00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:49,240
Speaker 12: to back it out up. But the first thing he

1141
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 12: has to earn respect, And I think he has respect

1142
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 12: from everybody in this state, including is obviously his teammates

1143
00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:58,640
Speaker 12: and his coaching staff.

1144
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: And then the last one I got coach because I

1145
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,200
Speaker 1: think this gets lost sometimes people see, oh, what position

1146
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 1: does he play, and they just only think defense. But

1147
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:09,480
Speaker 1: I know, you use this guy on special teams. You know,

1148
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,440
Speaker 1: you see a guy this long, it's like, get him

1149
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: out there on field goal block and I think he

1150
00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 1: blocked a couple for you in his career, right.

1151
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,760
Speaker 4: Well he did, Yeah, he blocked one.

1152
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 12: Yeah, he did a big one against Auburn a couple

1153
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:21,480
Speaker 12: of years back.

1154
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:23,280
Speaker 4: And yeah.

1155
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 12: I mean, and those are things that a lot of guys,

1156
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 12: you're superstars or your better guys on the team, a

1157
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 12: lot of them, it's very, very difficult to get them

1158
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 12: to play on special teams. But as we've seen with Landing,

1159
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 12: it helped him. Isaac Tesla, who who went to Detroit Lions.

1160
00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:43,400
Speaker 12: I think it had a lot to do with their

1161
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 12: special teams play. I've put him in there. We had

1162
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:48,280
Speaker 12: a guy here named Dan Skipper. He's playing for the

1163
00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:52,919
Speaker 12: Lions now and he blocked four or five and when

1164
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,600
Speaker 12: he was here, and they're doing the same thing out there,

1165
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 12: So I think special teams value is huge. And if

1166
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 12: he can block a big Phiel goal for the Bills

1167
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,960
Speaker 12: and win a big game. You know, I text him,

1168
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:07,000
Speaker 12: and you know he was disappointed. We went down there

1169
01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:10,439
Speaker 12: for the first round and he was disappointed, and heck,

1170
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:12,800
Speaker 12: everybody would be. All been through that, Steve, I mean,

1171
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 12: you guys been through that.

1172
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:14,920
Speaker 5: And and.

1173
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 12: I text him and I said, you know, Lord works

1174
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,240
Speaker 12: in a lot of different ways. You just went to

1175
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 12: a team that has a chance, a huge chance to

1176
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:29,440
Speaker 12: win the Super Bowl. And uh, I think that meant

1177
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:33,080
Speaker 12: more to him, to be honest with you, than what round,

1178
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 12: what pick he was picked. I think he wanted to

1179
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 12: go to the Bills, and I think that always makes

1180
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,640
Speaker 12: us all better when we want to be somewhere.

1181
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 2: Well, coach is sure. We appreciate you taking some time.

1182
01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 2: I know how it is busy.

1183
01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 1: It is.

1184
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,439
Speaker 2: You guys just finished up spring ball and you got

1185
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:49,360
Speaker 2: scholarships you're trying to award. Good luck with that, good

1186
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,520
Speaker 2: luck to the Razorbacks. We'll be watching, guys.

1187
01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 4: Appreciate you.

1188
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:54,080
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1189
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: That's head coach Sam Pittman and the Arkansas Razorbacks joining

1190
01:00:56,880 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: us talking a little land in Jackson. And it's nice

1191
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 1: to know that there's some I mean, I think we

1192
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:06,080
Speaker 1: all assumed there was some ceiling still for Landing to

1193
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 1: reach here at the NFL level as he learns more

1194
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: about the game here, this scheme he's going to be

1195
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,560
Speaker 1: playing in here and all of that, but hearing some

1196
01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: of the strides he made as a college player year

1197
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 1: over year is encouraging to hear, particularly to get off

1198
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: you see, Yeah.

1199
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,680
Speaker 2: You see some of the stuff that from early in

1200
01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 2: his career, and he's a guy that transferred obviously from

1201
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 2: LSU to Arkansas, and just how different of a player

1202
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,720
Speaker 2: he was at the end of his career than he

1203
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:34,200
Speaker 2: was at the beginning. And that's way it is for

1204
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 2: a lot of, you know, football players, but a guy

1205
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:39,640
Speaker 2: like him who kind of grew into it and just

1206
01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:45,080
Speaker 2: became so much more polished and productive. It takes a

1207
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 2: lot of want to to make that happen. It's not

1208
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 2: just something that you physically get bigger, like most guys

1209
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:55,720
Speaker 2: do between their eighteenth and twentieth second birthday, But you

1210
01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 2: got to it's hard work, man, And to see these guys,

1211
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:01,640
Speaker 2: the difference in them, you can tell they've put some

1212
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 2: time in on it.

1213
01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean even Landed on the conference call

1214
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 1: with the Buffalo media right after he got drafted. You know,

1215
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:10,840
Speaker 1: people are asking him, you know, what are your other interests,

1216
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 1: hobbies and everything, and he's like, I'm pretty much all

1217
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:18,200
Speaker 1: football and then come home to my wife and my dog.

1218
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:22,400
Speaker 1: That's all I do. So if that ain't right up

1219
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 1: the alley of Bill's DNA, I don't know what is like.

1220
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 1: Guy's married, already settled down, he's got his microdoodle dog,

1221
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:32,320
Speaker 1: and it's football and going home.

1222
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all he does. These guys. Yeah, he is

1223
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,480
Speaker 2: immersed in it. We're gonna we're gonna get a look

1224
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,320
Speaker 2: at him, a heart long, hard look. We're gonna get

1225
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 2: to know him over the next few months and watch

1226
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 2: him practice. I can't wait to see training camp start

1227
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 2: and see that, you know, the rookie of mini camp,

1228
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:52,440
Speaker 2: the whole thing. It'll be really interesting to see this

1229
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:55,440
Speaker 2: rookie class take place. And it's nice to hear a

1230
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,720
Speaker 2: head coach at his university speak so highly of him,

1231
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:00,120
Speaker 2: not just him, but his intent.

1232
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 1: Jibs the pride of Texar Canada. That's where he's from,

1233
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 1: Texars Canada, Texas, which I had to look up because

1234
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure which state Texarkana was in.

1235
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:11,120
Speaker 2: It's in both right. So he is right on the

1236
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 2: edge of Texas and Arkansas.

1237
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:16,080
Speaker 1: Okay, because he's listed as Texar Canada Texas. But I

1238
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: guess that town stretches over both state.

1239
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,200
Speaker 2: Over the state life a little bit like Kansas City.

1240
01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:24,000
Speaker 2: It's Kansas Corner, you know, and stuff. So there's yeah,

1241
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:25,440
Speaker 2: all right, see that.

1242
01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 1: Look, I'm learning stuff every day.

1243
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:28,800
Speaker 2: If you watch the old movie Smoking the Band, that

1244
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:30,000
Speaker 2: you'll understand what Texas.

1245
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,320
Speaker 1: I didn't remember that part of the movie. I was

1246
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 1: a young buck back then. But I'll have to watch

1247
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 1: it again at some point.

1248
01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, Texarkana is right on the border, the eastern border

1249
01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 2: of Texas, right at the Arkansas part of it, right

1250
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:42,760
Speaker 2: there in the corner. Yep.

1251
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,439
Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, I'll have to take it. I should

1252
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,640
Speaker 1: have looked at it on a man the name. Yeah, no,

1253
01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 1: I I figured as much, but I didn't realize the

1254
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:51,600
Speaker 1: actual towns stretches.

1255
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 2: I've never been there.

1256
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, yeah, but you're from at least that region,

1257
01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:58,360
Speaker 1: so to speak. I was talking certainly more than I am.

1258
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:00,200
Speaker 1: I was just before we came on. When I was

1259
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: talking to coach.

1260
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 2: He went to Pittsburgh State University, which is in Pittsburgh, Kansas.

1261
01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 1: Brian Mormon School.

1262
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:08,040
Speaker 2: Brian Mormon's School, and also, you know, I knew a

1263
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 2: couple of guys who went there. It's about an hour

1264
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:13,760
Speaker 2: hour and a half from where my family lives there

1265
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 2: in Wichita. There, it's about two hour drive from Wichita.

1266
01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:19,400
Speaker 2: And it's just on the Kansas side of the Arkansas

1267
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 2: line too, so it's yeah, so he's yeah, he's yeah.

1268
01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:25,959
Speaker 1: I didn't imagine it to a coach, but I think

1269
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,320
Speaker 1: Landon Jackson was like my favorite pick of the entire

1270
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:33,520
Speaker 1: draft class because of the value I felt he represented

1271
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 1: for the Bills. I thought he was going to be

1272
01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 1: a top sixty pick, and the Bills get him at

1273
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,440
Speaker 1: seventy two and round three, and then I just think

1274
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:43,040
Speaker 1: the ceiling there is pretty encouraging, and knowing the work

1275
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 1: ethic that comes with it. Havn't just talked to coach.

1276
01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 2: And he was getting if he was sitting by his phone,

1277
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 2: he was a little disappointed when the first round ended.

1278
01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:54,360
Speaker 2: You know, he was getting some really positive feedback from teams,

1279
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 2: and so was his representation well.

1280
01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:57,760
Speaker 1: And not only that, because now there's a burr under

1281
01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:00,000
Speaker 1: his saddle too to prove people wrong.

1282
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,320
Speaker 2: It's kind of the therm and Thomas syndrome, where you know,

1283
01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:05,600
Speaker 2: fall asleep on your couch. The next thing you know,

1284
01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,800
Speaker 2: you're putting on a gold jacket. I'm not saying that's

1285
01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:09,680
Speaker 2: with land and Jackson, but that's what happened to them.

1286
01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:10,360
Speaker 2: You know.

1287
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:14,120
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, but that fire was burning within because he's like, dude,

1288
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: I'm better than the fortieth pick, and Landing clearly thinks

1289
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: he's better than the seventy second pick.

1290
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:21,360
Speaker 2: It's uh it it means something to guys.

1291
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:23,840
Speaker 1: I want to get back to the phones though. At

1292
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:25,960
Speaker 1: eight oh three zero five fifty one eighty eight five

1293
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:29,360
Speaker 1: fifty two five fifty, which Bills defensive line veteran will

1294
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:32,720
Speaker 1: be challenged the most by the new additions on the roster.

1295
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:35,880
Speaker 1: We go to Mark in West senecon next what's up Mark?

1296
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:38,040
Speaker 13: By guys? All right today?

1297
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:40,000
Speaker 2: Good good, he.

1298
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 13: I'm jumping on the at all over train here a

1299
01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,480
Speaker 13: little bit. First of all, I want to say he's

1300
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:49,040
Speaker 13: I believe it's going to be challenged, but he's gonna

1301
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:53,320
Speaker 13: be challenged for playing time. The brain trust of the

1302
01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 13: Bills obviously loves Ed, so I don't think he's going anywhere.

1303
01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,640
Speaker 13: And if you looked at if you look at the

1304
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,960
Speaker 13: defense tackle position. If for some reason they moved AT,

1305
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:06,000
Speaker 13: now you're down to a thirty four year old defensive

1306
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:08,480
Speaker 13: tackle on a lot of young guys. So I don't

1307
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 13: think that that's going to happen at all. But as

1308
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:15,760
Speaker 13: smart as the situation with Ed, I don't believe Ed's

1309
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 13: lived up to his draft status other than the one

1310
01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:22,400
Speaker 13: season and the year that they extended them. I disagreed

1311
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,200
Speaker 13: with that, but like always and Brandon Bean, we trust

1312
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,440
Speaker 13: and he did what he thought was right and Ed

1313
01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 13: had a monster year and then we've fallen off again.

1314
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 9: So out of all the.

1315
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:36,680
Speaker 13: Years that's been here, I only think he's really left

1316
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 13: lived up to his status one season. And Chris, if

1317
01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 13: I get pushed back on just one comment you made

1318
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,200
Speaker 13: when somebody was talking about possibly moving At off the roster,

1319
01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:49,800
Speaker 13: I believe he said, you know, I don't believe you

1320
01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:54,080
Speaker 13: win by moving talent off the roster, and that is

1321
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:56,800
Speaker 13: one hundred percent true. But I also don't believe you

1322
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 13: win with sticking with talent that never lives up to

1323
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 13: its talent. So I think it's got a big season here.

1324
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:07,200
Speaker 13: And lastly, I'll leave it with a question if for

1325
01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:13,000
Speaker 13: some unforeseen miracle, they did move ed financially? What out

1326
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 13: of the rampiplications to the builds, whether they trade him

1327
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,640
Speaker 13: or I don't see them ever outright cutting him. But

1328
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 13: what would be the ramplications was this contract. That's that's

1329
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:22,560
Speaker 13: all I got.

1330
01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, no problem, Mark, Yeah, And look, you can push

1331
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,680
Speaker 1: back all you want, It doesn't bother me. We're all

1332
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 1: going to have differences of opinion, and yeah, if you're

1333
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:34,000
Speaker 1: not getting the most out of somebody, yeah, and you

1334
01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:36,080
Speaker 1: can't and you've tried everything under the sun and it's

1335
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 1: still not working, Yeah, maybe it is time for a

1336
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:40,600
Speaker 1: change of scenery. I don't see that happening this year.

1337
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:42,680
Speaker 1: Bid in terms of what's at Staken now, they're not.

1338
01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 2: Going to cut Ed.

1339
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,760
Speaker 1: Well, it's cost I think it's cost prohibitive.

1340
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,520
Speaker 2: He's got a thirty one million dollar cap hit, dead

1341
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 2: cap hit this year. Yeah, he's eleven million under the

1342
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:53,840
Speaker 2: on the cap now and after.

1343
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:56,320
Speaker 1: This year it goes down to twenty one. Right, And

1344
01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:58,840
Speaker 1: you have to make the determination if that's something you

1345
01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: can stomach. If you're not happy with what you got

1346
01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:03,840
Speaker 1: out of him this coming season.

1347
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:05,480
Speaker 2: I get it. We've heard, We've had people call and

1348
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,400
Speaker 2: they'll they'll you know, Ed's doing that, and they said,

1349
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:09,840
Speaker 2: you know, when dayque Jones comes back, Ed plays, you know,

1350
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:11,120
Speaker 2: it'll take the pressure off.

1351
01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:11,360
Speaker 6: Edit.

1352
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 2: If if you're a guy, maybe a top ten pick

1353
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,720
Speaker 2: like Ed is, he's tenth pick, maybe people expect you

1354
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 2: to be the guy that makes it clear for everybody else.

1355
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:23,880
Speaker 2: You're the guy that gets the double teams. Instead of

1356
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:25,840
Speaker 2: benefiting from having a good player next to you, you

1357
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:29,320
Speaker 2: should be the guy that's benefiting everybody around you. And

1358
01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:31,759
Speaker 2: that so the conversation has been a little bit reversed.

1359
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,960
Speaker 2: For a guy like Ed, maybe he needs guys around

1360
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:38,559
Speaker 2: him to make him flourish. And some people have a

1361
01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,400
Speaker 2: problem with a guy drafted that high being that guy,

1362
01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,680
Speaker 2: a guy who benefits from having good players around him,

1363
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 2: and rather than being the good player around that, other

1364
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:50,720
Speaker 2: players benefit and elevate from So I get that. But

1365
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 2: Ed oliver Is is a guy with a high motor.

1366
01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 2: He plays well. The club loves him. And I'll say this,

1367
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:59,000
Speaker 2: they don't love him for no reason. You know, they

1368
01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 2: didn't extend him for no reason. They like him in

1369
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:03,599
Speaker 2: what he brings to the table. And I don't think

1370
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 2: that's going to change.

1371
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:06,879
Speaker 1: To Chuck in Hamburg.

1372
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:10,360
Speaker 2: Next, what's up, Chuck, Hey, Chris Steve, nice getting back

1373
01:09:10,360 --> 01:09:10,799
Speaker 2: to you.

1374
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:11,760
Speaker 1: Sure, good to have you.

1375
01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:12,920
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1376
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:15,880
Speaker 14: I think that there's going to be all kinds of

1377
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:21,160
Speaker 14: challenges along the defensive line that goes every spring training camp.

1378
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:29,679
Speaker 14: But my big thing is I think the defensive coaches

1379
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,599
Speaker 14: are going to be challenged the most this year because

1380
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:34,720
Speaker 14: we've had an offense for the last two or three

1381
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 14: years that were good enough to go to the Super Bowl.

1382
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,760
Speaker 14: And I'll give you two examples of what I mean,

1383
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:42,400
Speaker 14: And I know you don't want to talk about the

1384
01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:46,080
Speaker 14: first one, Kyrie Elem and we won't. But what about

1385
01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:49,920
Speaker 14: Rousseaul Douglas. He comes over from Green Bay, three or

1386
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:55,840
Speaker 14: four interceptions, a couple forced fumbles, plays out of his mind.

1387
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:58,600
Speaker 14: What do you do in twenty four.

1388
01:10:00,439 --> 01:10:03,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, not nearly as much, only.

1389
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:05,960
Speaker 14: Because of the scheme that he was playing in and

1390
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 14: whether he wasn't developed enough or coached up enough to

1391
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:13,800
Speaker 14: play in that scheme. I think that's why the defensive

1392
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 14: unit is going to be challenged this year.

1393
01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:18,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I get what you're saying, Chuck, in

1394
01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:21,080
Speaker 1: terms of Rasoul specifically, I just don't think his physical

1395
01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 1: skill set matches up with the way they feel they

1396
01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:27,280
Speaker 1: have to play nowadays, you have to be able as

1397
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:31,879
Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator to have the freedom to call whatever

1398
01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:35,320
Speaker 1: it is you feel is best to call against an opponent. Now,

1399
01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 1: naturally you cater that to the strength of your players,

1400
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:42,080
Speaker 1: and I think that unfortunately, as the season wore on

1401
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 1: and the pass rush was ineffective and you had to

1402
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:48,440
Speaker 1: play more man coverage on the back end, Rasoul Douglas

1403
01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 1: suddenly became a square peg in a round hole. And

1404
01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:55,040
Speaker 1: going forward, I think they determined that they had to

1405
01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:59,679
Speaker 1: get a corner that was scheme versatile, play call versatile,

1406
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,960
Speaker 1: where you could call anything under the sun, and that

1407
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,479
Speaker 1: player had a skill set to execute it, whether it

1408
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:08,559
Speaker 1: was a man coverage call, offman, press, press, bail, whatever

1409
01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:12,320
Speaker 1: it was. That corner was going to be equipped physically

1410
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:15,080
Speaker 1: to execute whatever it is you want to call. It

1411
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:18,720
Speaker 1: gives your defensive coordinator more freedom, the ability to be

1412
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:22,720
Speaker 1: more creative, and I just think they felt that Rasul's

1413
01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:26,599
Speaker 1: skill set left them limited with what they could call

1414
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 1: on the back end. I hope that makes sense.

1415
01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with Brownie. The defensive scheme is going

1416
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,160
Speaker 2: to be and be what year to year, what they

1417
01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:42,639
Speaker 2: have the personnel to run within every scheme. You've got

1418
01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:46,000
Speaker 2: the ability to do a lot of different things, but

1419
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,439
Speaker 2: you're limited on the calls you make because some of

1420
01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:50,960
Speaker 2: your players can't execute it. That's the only thing that

1421
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:54,479
Speaker 2: limits what the defensive scheme is going to be and

1422
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,080
Speaker 2: whatever the philosophy is going to be this year. I

1423
01:11:58,080 --> 01:11:59,479
Speaker 2: don't think they know yet. I don't think they've said it.

1424
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:01,719
Speaker 2: I think they're going to find out who does what best,

1425
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:03,960
Speaker 2: and they're going to play to the player to what

1426
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,639
Speaker 2: their players can do best. When you let your players

1427
01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:10,800
Speaker 2: play in a scheme or system or a defensive call

1428
01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 2: that they can really get after that fits their skill set,

1429
01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,559
Speaker 2: that's where you want to be as a coach coaching staff,

1430
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:23,120
Speaker 2: defensive or offensive. So you can bet that's what they're

1431
01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:25,400
Speaker 2: going to try and do with this crew. And they

1432
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:26,920
Speaker 2: don't know who that's going to be yet. I mean,

1433
01:12:26,920 --> 01:12:28,800
Speaker 2: they've just drafted nine new guys.

1434
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 1: But Max Harrison is a player just to use as

1435
01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:35,000
Speaker 1: a contrasting example to that of Rasull Douglas. Max Harrison

1436
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:37,599
Speaker 1: is not only a player equipped with the physical traits

1437
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,600
Speaker 1: to play press man, but he also played at Kentucky

1438
01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:44,720
Speaker 1: where they played a lot of different zone concepts. So

1439
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:49,400
Speaker 1: this defensive scheme here in Buffalo has been largely known

1440
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:53,559
Speaker 1: for its zone principles, but last year, actually the last

1441
01:12:53,640 --> 01:12:56,400
Speaker 1: two years, we've seen an increase in man coverage calls

1442
01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:59,679
Speaker 1: within the scope of this defense. So it's very clear

1443
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 1: to us that they needed a scheme versatile corner and

1444
01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:06,599
Speaker 1: Harston fits that to a t. And so I think

1445
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,000
Speaker 1: it's going to give him a real chance to be

1446
01:13:10,080 --> 01:13:12,880
Speaker 1: a day one starter because a of his physical skill

1447
01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:15,599
Speaker 1: set and b the experience he got in a zone

1448
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 1: system at Kentucky. So it really points to him starting

1449
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 1: if he does everything the right way and it's quick

1450
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:24,479
Speaker 1: on the uptake here, I think he's got a very

1451
01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:26,760
Speaker 1: good chance to start because at the end of the day,

1452
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:29,839
Speaker 1: we can talk all day about bigger, longer, and stronger

1453
01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:32,280
Speaker 1: upfront on the defensive line, and the Bills did that

1454
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:35,639
Speaker 1: with the three defensive linemen that they drafted. It's also

1455
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,439
Speaker 1: a young man's game, especially at cornerback. There aren't too

1456
01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:42,799
Speaker 1: many thirty plus year old corners starting in the NFL

1457
01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:46,160
Speaker 1: these days. I would venture to guess that the vast

1458
01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:48,519
Speaker 1: majority of corners in this league that start on the

1459
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:52,160
Speaker 1: outside are under age thirty. It's a young man's game,

1460
01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:56,719
Speaker 1: and they had to get younger on defense. Unquestionably, Brandon

1461
01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:59,080
Speaker 1: being said it himself. We had to get younger on defense.

1462
01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:01,479
Speaker 1: Their defensive line is five years younger than it was

1463
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 1: when they walked off the field in Kansas City, So

1464
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:06,360
Speaker 1: that's not by accident. They felt they had to get

1465
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:07,880
Speaker 1: younger and more athletic.

1466
01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,599
Speaker 2: And they did, and they did. We'll see it's Brownie's right.

1467
01:14:11,680 --> 01:14:15,639
Speaker 2: I think when you've got players that are versatile and

1468
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 2: they're all at a level, at a higher level, it's

1469
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:21,800
Speaker 2: a little bit like the wide receiver room. For this team,

1470
01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,679
Speaker 2: you can they don't have a big a big time

1471
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:26,759
Speaker 2: number one, so the defense has got to decide, okay,

1472
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:30,639
Speaker 2: on this formation, what are we gonna do defensively. It's

1473
01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:32,559
Speaker 2: the same is true if you've got a guy who

1474
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:36,240
Speaker 2: who can't run press man to man as well as

1475
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:39,200
Speaker 2: you want him to, or the team you're playing has

1476
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,920
Speaker 2: too many guys to match up with manda man press,

1477
01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:46,639
Speaker 2: you can't call certain defenses because you're gonna they're gonna

1478
01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:48,240
Speaker 2: do and shift and you're gonna end up in manda

1479
01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 2: man press. They'll force it. So it's the same thing.

1480
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:54,200
Speaker 2: It's on the same side of the it's the same

1481
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:56,719
Speaker 2: concept on both sides of the ball. That's what happened

1482
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:57,240
Speaker 2: last year.

1483
01:14:57,280 --> 01:14:59,160
Speaker 1: And I don't want to single out Rashewel Douglass, but

1484
01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:03,240
Speaker 1: the fact is he was getting picked on and targeted

1485
01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:06,280
Speaker 1: in the playoffs last year because to the point I've

1486
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:09,400
Speaker 1: made before, the Bills could not get effective pass rush

1487
01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:12,840
Speaker 1: pressure on quarterbacks rushing just their front four. They had

1488
01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:15,639
Speaker 1: to send five sometimes six. That means more man coverage

1489
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,360
Speaker 1: on the back end, and Rasul Douglas could not hold

1490
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,880
Speaker 1: up consistently enough in man to man coverage and became

1491
01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:25,280
Speaker 1: a victim of opposing passers who were targeting him time

1492
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,280
Speaker 1: and time and time again. You want to know why

1493
01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:29,280
Speaker 1: the Bills couldn't get off the field on third down?

1494
01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,040
Speaker 1: Pass rush not good enough upfront, man to man coverage,

1495
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:34,879
Speaker 1: not good enough on the back end. Conversion conversion, conversion,

1496
01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:35,719
Speaker 1: can't get off the field.

1497
01:15:35,720 --> 01:15:37,960
Speaker 2: And it was exacerbated of course in the last game

1498
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,679
Speaker 2: of the season when Christian Benford goes down the first series.

1499
01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,599
Speaker 2: Now you got your you got your third, fourth, and

1500
01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:46,759
Speaker 2: your fourth and fifth corners in their third and fourth

1501
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:47,639
Speaker 2: corners in there.

1502
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:53,320
Speaker 1: It just was not not sustainable for sustainable So yeah,

1503
01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:57,280
Speaker 1: that's and that I think that's where we're at right now.

1504
01:15:57,720 --> 01:15:59,880
Speaker 1: Break time for us here. When we come back, more

1505
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,719
Speaker 1: your phone calls, and we'll also crack open the tweet sheets.

1506
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:04,920
Speaker 1: See what you have to say there about which defensive

1507
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 1: line veteran is going to be challenged the most by

1508
01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,479
Speaker 1: the new additions to this roster. Come training camp time

1509
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 1: back in a flash here on One Bill's Live. Stay

1510
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:31,000
Speaker 1: with us back here on One Bill's Live, Chris Brown,

1511
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,720
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you, asking you which Bill's defensive line

1512
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 1: veteran will be challenged the most by the new additions

1513
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,240
Speaker 1: to the Roster're going to crack open the tweet sheet

1514
01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:40,759
Speaker 1: here tweets sheet brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems,

1515
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:43,519
Speaker 1: the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. And

1516
01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:46,000
Speaker 1: Jeremy leads us off and says, the easy answer is AJ,

1517
01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:48,960
Speaker 1: but the real answer is ed. He's gonna have so

1518
01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 1: much space for more activities on his left and right

1519
01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 1: with all the extra help that he's going to have

1520
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:56,640
Speaker 1: to relearn a new technique he hasn't seen since being drafted,

1521
01:16:56,680 --> 01:16:59,640
Speaker 1: so he thinks the challenge is more a technique perspective

1522
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:02,920
Speaker 1: then somebody breathing down his neck as competition. That's an

1523
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:04,200
Speaker 1: interesting perspective there.

1524
01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:10,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I am. I'm yeah, I get it. We've

1525
01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,720
Speaker 2: talked a lot about how ed benefits from having a

1526
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:17,120
Speaker 2: big body next to him. Yeah, and no question about it.

1527
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 2: It kind of plays to his strengths of penetration and

1528
01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 2: being if he can get If he gets singled up,

1529
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:29,440
Speaker 2: he's a problem. Yes, and we'll see if this upgraded.

1530
01:17:29,920 --> 01:17:33,080
Speaker 2: This attention to the defensive line leads to more production,

1531
01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:36,599
Speaker 2: better players, more problems for the offensive line, less problems

1532
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 2: for Edah.

1533
01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:40,920
Speaker 1: Jerry on the tweets Sheet says aj Epanessa will have

1534
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:44,200
Speaker 1: to fight the most for his playing time. Joey Bosa

1535
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:46,919
Speaker 1: will need to stand out to earn another significant contract,

1536
01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:49,759
Speaker 1: either in Buffalo or elsewhere. Yeah, I mean, look, Bosas

1537
01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:51,519
Speaker 1: on a one year deal for a little over twelve

1538
01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:54,360
Speaker 1: a year. I think he's gonna be a pass rush specialist.

1539
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:56,479
Speaker 1: Steve feels like he's gonna have that Von Miller roll.

1540
01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,400
Speaker 1: Maybe he gets a few more snaps than Vaon did

1541
01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:02,679
Speaker 1: because he's coming in healthy anyway, But if he gets

1542
01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:05,040
Speaker 1: more than thirty five snaps a game, I'll be surprised.

1543
01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:06,920
Speaker 1: I think they want to pace him through the season.

1544
01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:08,479
Speaker 1: To get the best out of him, not only in

1545
01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:11,760
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter every week, but in the playoffs most importantly.

1546
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:16,120
Speaker 1: And then yeah, a j Epenessa is gonna be battling

1547
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:19,360
Speaker 1: Land and Jackson for early down work, first and second down.

1548
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,240
Speaker 1: So if Land and Jackson comes in here and pops

1549
01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:27,560
Speaker 1: AJ is gonna be inactive right some weeks, you know

1550
01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:29,320
Speaker 1: what I mean, That's what you're looking at.

1551
01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:31,840
Speaker 2: Starts starts to get to a point where somebody's got

1552
01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:34,960
Speaker 2: to sit down. You can't go into a game with

1553
01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:38,360
Speaker 2: you know, ten defensive linemen rotating in. You get you

1554
01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:43,439
Speaker 2: need spots other places. So yeah, you're it's it's it's

1555
01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:44,720
Speaker 2: gonna we have to see how it shakes out in

1556
01:18:44,760 --> 01:18:45,400
Speaker 2: the preseason.

1557
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go back to the phones and to Sean

1558
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:50,280
Speaker 1: out in Hamburg. What's up, Sean?

1559
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:52,880
Speaker 9: Hey, how's the going guys?

1560
01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 1: Good?

1561
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:53,800
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1562
01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:56,080
Speaker 9: I just want good. Yeah. I just wanted to bring

1563
01:18:56,160 --> 01:19:00,400
Speaker 9: up just my thoughts here were between Daycorn Jones and

1564
01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:04,000
Speaker 9: and Joey Bosa here mainly because like it seems like

1565
01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:06,720
Speaker 9: day Quon's just had a lot of health issues since

1566
01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:09,120
Speaker 9: he's been with the Bills, you know, and he's uh,

1567
01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 9: you know, getting a little bit older, you know, I

1568
01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 9: think he's thirty three now if I remember correctly, just

1569
01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:15,320
Speaker 9: starting to get aged up a little bit. And then

1570
01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,960
Speaker 9: with Joey Bosa. You know, my thought just being that

1571
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:20,080
Speaker 9: with him coming into the bills, I know he's on

1572
01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:22,080
Speaker 9: a one year deal, and you guys make a great point.

1573
01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:24,600
Speaker 9: He's probably going to be more of that pass rusher specialist.

1574
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:27,719
Speaker 9: But I think having a lot of young, agile talent

1575
01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:30,320
Speaker 9: around him may push him to go into a second year.

1576
01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:32,599
Speaker 9: So it'd be interesting to see kind of how that

1577
01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:35,200
Speaker 9: battle goes for you know, for those two guys. I'll

1578
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:36,599
Speaker 9: go ahead and hang up and listen to what you got.

1579
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:39,320
Speaker 2: I think one thing too, we kind of overlook what

1580
01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 2: happens if Daykuon and Joey both have health issues. At

1581
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:42,960
Speaker 2: least you got enough good place.

1582
01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:44,559
Speaker 1: You know, you got horses.

1583
01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 2: You're not going to be scraping someplace to find a body. Yeah,

1584
01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:49,920
Speaker 2: you got enough horses to bring him in. So yeah,

1585
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:52,960
Speaker 2: there's that as well. So it's I don't want to

1586
01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:55,960
Speaker 2: say it's an insurance policy, because I think it's more

1587
01:19:56,040 --> 01:19:58,600
Speaker 2: than that, but at least you've got some place to

1588
01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:00,320
Speaker 2: go if somebody goes down quickly.

1589
01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:03,599
Speaker 1: To mention the fact that Michael Hoyd and Larry Ogun

1590
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 1: Joby you're out of the mix for the first six

1591
01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 1: weeks of the season on suspension, so you're probably gonna

1592
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:11,160
Speaker 1: need just about everybody. But when those two guys come

1593
01:20:11,160 --> 01:20:13,839
Speaker 1: back healthy as somebody injured and you know on ir

1594
01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:17,639
Speaker 1: so there's a spot to to, you know, add those

1595
01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:19,800
Speaker 1: guys back or you're gonna have to make another tough

1596
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:20,040
Speaker 1: to say.

1597
01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:23,200
Speaker 2: You really hope it's you really hope it's a huge

1598
01:20:23,240 --> 01:20:26,000
Speaker 2: problem in six six weeks into the season. You really hope.

1599
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:27,400
Speaker 2: It's like, Wow, what are we gonna we don't need?

1600
01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:30,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, a good Dylan, What are.

1601
01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:31,599
Speaker 2: We gonna do? We don't want to. We don't want

1602
01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:34,080
Speaker 2: to upset this apple cart with the way things are

1603
01:20:34,120 --> 01:20:37,559
Speaker 2: going right now by bringing in Hoyt or Ogan Joby.

1604
01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:40,960
Speaker 2: You hope that's probably a good problem.

1605
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:43,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, Joey. On the tweet, she says day Kwon Jones

1606
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,639
Speaker 1: and Zion Log Dai Kwon's thirty three and a big

1607
01:20:46,680 --> 01:20:49,120
Speaker 1: salary cap hit and I watch your show every day

1608
01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:51,000
Speaker 1: and follow the bills religiously, and I don't think I've

1609
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,880
Speaker 1: ever heard his name before go Bills. Yeah, we've mentioned

1610
01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,160
Speaker 1: Zion Log here and there. You know, he was a

1611
01:20:56,160 --> 01:20:59,880
Speaker 1: waiver pick up from the Falcons last year when they

1612
01:20:59,880 --> 01:21:02,760
Speaker 1: were a little short handed on the interior. And he

1613
01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:05,680
Speaker 1: is a big body as well. And still, you know,

1614
01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:09,479
Speaker 1: a young player, So you know, does he make the roster?

1615
01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:11,439
Speaker 1: Is he on the practice squad? We'll have to wait

1616
01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:14,639
Speaker 1: and see. But yeah, day Quon, I believe he turns

1617
01:21:14,680 --> 01:21:18,160
Speaker 1: thirty four, if not before the season, sometime during the season,

1618
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:21,880
Speaker 1: and he's gonna get pushed. He'll get pushed by Zion

1619
01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:25,200
Speaker 1: log Let alone, Dion Walker and TJ. Sanders and Dwayne Carter.

1620
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:29,040
Speaker 1: So there is a youth movement afoot here with Buffalo's

1621
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 1: defensive line, and it's not by accident. Will on the

1622
01:21:33,439 --> 01:21:35,519
Speaker 1: tweets sheet says, I see a lot of AJ and

1623
01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 1: I don't get it. He's our backup defensive end if

1624
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:39,720
Speaker 1: Bosa doesn't stay healthier and he needs rest. Landon is

1625
01:21:39,720 --> 01:21:42,519
Speaker 1: a rookie and Hoyd is suspended. Why isn't it The

1626
01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,720
Speaker 1: two veteran dts love Daequon, but him and Larry have

1627
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:48,920
Speaker 1: to fight off top have to fight off three top

1628
01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 1: four round picks from the last two drafts. Math doesn't math,

1629
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:57,559
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, it's all across the front.

1630
01:21:57,680 --> 01:21:59,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you forget about how much, and we don't

1631
01:21:59,840 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 2: know what they think about Dwayne Carter. If Dwayne Carter

1632
01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:06,240
Speaker 2: comes back and they're liking him a little bit more

1633
01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:08,599
Speaker 2: than they had higher hopes for him than they did

1634
01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,280
Speaker 2: dayk one, or they thought he was gonna supplant Day

1635
01:22:11,280 --> 01:22:13,800
Speaker 2: one last year, then you know, we don't know that

1636
01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:15,320
Speaker 2: it was possible.

1637
01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 1: I will say it was interesting because Brandon Bean after

1638
01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:21,759
Speaker 1: night two of the draft, maybe it was even after

1639
01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:23,960
Speaker 1: ninth three. I'm trying to remember. I'm getting my days

1640
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:27,439
Speaker 1: mixed up here, but TJ. Sanders was on the ross. Yeah,

1641
01:22:27,479 --> 01:22:29,519
Speaker 1: I think it was Day three, so you already had

1642
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:33,240
Speaker 1: two defensive tackles on the defensive end drafted. And people

1643
01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:35,760
Speaker 1: are saying, what does this mean for Dwayne Carter? Does

1644
01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:38,840
Speaker 1: he still play three technique? With TJ. Sanders and Ed

1645
01:22:38,880 --> 01:22:43,400
Speaker 1: Oliver also playing that same role? And Bean gave indication

1646
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:47,640
Speaker 1: that Dwayne Carter might play a little more one technique

1647
01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:49,519
Speaker 1: and maybe put a little weight on because he played

1648
01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:52,240
Speaker 1: I think at three zho two last year, might have

1649
01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:54,439
Speaker 1: to play at three ten, three fifteen this year. If

1650
01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna move him to a one technique role more

1651
01:22:57,479 --> 01:23:00,000
Speaker 1: of the time. So that was a little eye opening.

1652
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:01,160
Speaker 1: If they talk about it.

1653
01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:02,679
Speaker 2: If they were going to do that, they he's already

1654
01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:04,599
Speaker 2: working on that. They they told him that last year

1655
01:23:04,600 --> 01:23:08,040
Speaker 2: at the end of the season, the postseason at exit interviews,

1656
01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:11,480
Speaker 2: that they were thinking that's what their plan would be.

1657
01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:13,400
Speaker 1: Be interesting to see how that shakes. We might have

1658
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:14,080
Speaker 1: gotten up.

1659
01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,000
Speaker 2: We might have gotten win to that even by now.

1660
01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:19,000
Speaker 2: So I don't know, but you're right that you look

1661
01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:21,519
Speaker 2: back at that Houston game and how well he played

1662
01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:24,640
Speaker 2: in it. There's just so much about last year that

1663
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:26,960
Speaker 2: we don't know think about it. Dwayne Carter went down,

1664
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,200
Speaker 2: had that wrist injury, missed him, and then he was

1665
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:34,120
Speaker 2: never the same. Keon wrist injury came back, kend Of

1666
01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:36,800
Speaker 2: wasn't the same, d written Jlon Smooth got injured too,

1667
01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:40,919
Speaker 2: right when, right when Keon and Dwayne Carter were starting

1668
01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:43,720
Speaker 2: to like, Okay, I'm getting this, both of them get

1669
01:23:43,760 --> 01:23:48,640
Speaker 2: a wrist injury and they're done for a month. Just

1670
01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:51,880
Speaker 2: completely derailed there there, right and right.

1671
01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:53,559
Speaker 1: When they still scored thirty points a game.

1672
01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:55,400
Speaker 2: That's right and right when they were starting, right when

1673
01:23:55,439 --> 01:23:58,000
Speaker 2: those two guys were starting to like get it. You know,

1674
01:23:58,040 --> 01:23:59,800
Speaker 2: when we were thinking, all right, here he is, let's go.

1675
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:02,679
Speaker 2: Now they just appear for a month. It's like stunted

1676
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,760
Speaker 2: their growth. And yeah, you're right. I mean Keon was

1677
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 2: one thing, but you know, the team scored thirty points

1678
01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:13,040
Speaker 2: with him without him anyway, So that's why. Yeah, don't

1679
01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:14,360
Speaker 2: get me started, Jacob.

1680
01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:17,280
Speaker 1: On the tweet, she says snap percent for Bosa will

1681
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:20,960
Speaker 1: be most impacted by this added depth. Strategically be able

1682
01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:23,360
Speaker 1: to keep him on a lower snap count forty to

1683
01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,280
Speaker 1: fifty percent of the snaps or so, to keep him

1684
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:27,200
Speaker 1: healthy for the playoff run. Yeah, we've been talking about

1685
01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,679
Speaker 1: that today. I think we envision him in a pass

1686
01:24:30,760 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 1: rush specialist role, which I think in our estimation is

1687
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:38,760
Speaker 1: somewhere between thirty and thirty five snaps a game, which

1688
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,360
Speaker 1: means you need somebody as a base defensive end, whether

1689
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:45,479
Speaker 1: that's Epanessa, whether that's Landon Jackson or somebody else. It's

1690
01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:48,400
Speaker 1: not going to be Bosa, I think in an ideal world,

1691
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:51,920
Speaker 1: and you keep him fresh, he plays seventeen games, less

1692
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:54,320
Speaker 1: risk of injury because he's playing fewer snaps, he's not

1693
01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:57,439
Speaker 1: getting as fatigued. Sometimes guys get hurt just when they're

1694
01:24:57,439 --> 01:25:00,360
Speaker 1: fatigued because they can't execute with the same TECHNI Acre.

1695
01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:03,440
Speaker 1: Maybe they're stretching and leaning more in a way they shouldn't,

1696
01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:06,280
Speaker 1: and then they become more susceptible to injury. You reduce

1697
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:08,920
Speaker 1: his snapcount, you get a fresher, more effective boast on

1698
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:12,320
Speaker 1: pass rush and less risk of injury. I think that's

1699
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:14,800
Speaker 1: probably going to be his plan, or the plan of

1700
01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:16,720
Speaker 1: the defensive steps sound into the season.

1701
01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:18,960
Speaker 2: At all sounds great. We don't know exactly what we're thinking,

1702
01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:22,800
Speaker 2: but educating it makes some sense obviously.

1703
01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:26,200
Speaker 1: Jack on the tweet, he says, I'd say AJ Epanessa

1704
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaker 1: not sure they'll have room for five defensive ends and

1705
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:32,320
Speaker 1: one suspended. Jackson is a similar player, maybe more athletic.

1706
01:25:32,600 --> 01:25:35,400
Speaker 1: AJ is good but hasn't offered anything special. With a

1707
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:38,680
Speaker 1: good camp, Jackson could push AJ right out. Adding two

1708
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:42,200
Speaker 1: new defensive tackles and one suspended could also push the

1709
01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:43,519
Speaker 1: aging day Kwon Jones.

1710
01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:45,880
Speaker 2: We've gone down this road, Brown and I in our

1711
01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:49,240
Speaker 2: little quiet conversations in the office about you know, if

1712
01:25:49,400 --> 01:25:53,520
Speaker 2: if something like this does happen, you've got to think.

1713
01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:57,559
Speaker 2: Even if it's Land and Jackson and they're trying to

1714
01:25:57,560 --> 01:26:00,840
Speaker 2: make a decision, it's Landon Jackson or it's Aj at Panessa,

1715
01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 2: or is it an embarrassment or do you have a

1716
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:08,200
Speaker 2: good enough player there to trade him? Knowing that you

1717
01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:11,000
Speaker 2: can't hide Aj, you don't want to hide Landing.

1718
01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:13,280
Speaker 1: And you also don't want to lose one of them

1719
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:13,719
Speaker 1: for nothing.

1720
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:15,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't want to just turn them loose and

1721
01:26:15,360 --> 01:26:17,080
Speaker 2: let them go sign somewhere else.

1722
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,960
Speaker 1: And possibly start even and that and starting there could

1723
01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:23,720
Speaker 1: be starting caliber players on both of these lines for

1724
01:26:23,760 --> 01:26:25,840
Speaker 1: the Bills can't make the roster.

1725
01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:28,599
Speaker 2: Vander Mark played his lights out in the one game

1726
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,000
Speaker 2: he started in last year. Let's not forget was the

1727
01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:33,120
Speaker 2: most important regular season game the Bills played. It was

1728
01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:36,720
Speaker 2: the Chiefs game well, and he played well for That's

1729
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,040
Speaker 2: the game the only game Spencer Brown's missed in two years.

1730
01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:41,320
Speaker 2: He played well in a game they won by nine.

1731
01:26:42,479 --> 01:26:45,760
Speaker 2: So you know, Vandermark's got the chops to play for

1732
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:47,920
Speaker 2: some people. It's the same thing with Aj. You think

1733
01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:51,760
Speaker 2: Aj Apanessa the physical gifts Alan will get him make

1734
01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:55,320
Speaker 2: him valuable to other teams. Same thing with Landon. So

1735
01:26:57,160 --> 01:26:59,479
Speaker 2: some of these guys, I mean, you start looking around,

1736
01:26:59,560 --> 01:27:03,200
Speaker 2: it's like who's gonna be available? You don't want to.

1737
01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:05,400
Speaker 2: You don't want to just outright release these guys, and

1738
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:07,280
Speaker 2: you can't. You can only protect them so much, so

1739
01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:10,240
Speaker 2: you don't want to throw You know, you got these

1740
01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:11,960
Speaker 2: all these assets. You don't want to throw them away.

1741
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,040
Speaker 2: You might have to get something for him, whether it's.

1742
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:17,000
Speaker 1: A future pick or help in some other position. Gotta

1743
01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:19,320
Speaker 1: take a break here. Get some final thoughts on the

1744
01:27:19,360 --> 01:27:21,680
Speaker 1: tweet sheet in when we return here on one Bill's Live,

1745
01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:41,599
Speaker 1: presented by Colid of Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All

1746
01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:44,519
Speaker 1: right back here, I'm unders Live wrapping up a Wednesday edition.

1747
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:46,960
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you, and it's been an

1748
01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:49,280
Speaker 1: interesting topic of discussion. I don't think we were surprised

1749
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:51,040
Speaker 1: by some of the names we heard today. Which Bill's

1750
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:53,240
Speaker 1: defensive line veteran will be challenged the most by the

1751
01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:56,040
Speaker 1: new additions to the roster. Final thoughts on the tweet

1752
01:27:56,040 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 1: sheet come from Joseph, who says Ajpanessa by Land and Jackson.

1753
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 1: While he shows flashes by having one or two great games,

1754
01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:05,800
Speaker 1: AJ disappears the rest of the season. I can also

1755
01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:08,880
Speaker 1: see Dai Kwon Jones being pushed once the suspension is up.

1756
01:28:09,080 --> 01:28:13,000
Speaker 1: So the DT from Pittsburgh Larry Ogunjobi and Dion Walker

1757
01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:17,759
Speaker 1: give him a run. Ogun Joby is barely younger than Daikwon.

1758
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,280
Speaker 1: He's a He's gonna be a nine year veteran this year,

1759
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,160
Speaker 1: but he is younger. And as we mentioned, day Kwon

1760
01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:26,160
Speaker 1: is going to turn thirty four and down in the trenches. Man,

1761
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:27,240
Speaker 1: it is hard work.

1762
01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:29,800
Speaker 2: And Hoyt is a guy that gave a three year

1763
01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:33,479
Speaker 2: deal to and they knew about the suspensions, so they

1764
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:37,280
Speaker 2: really liked Hoyt and went out and got him and

1765
01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:39,160
Speaker 2: did not mind that he was going to lose the

1766
01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:41,280
Speaker 2: first six games of the season, and they gave him

1767
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:43,799
Speaker 2: a three year deal, so they they really think Hoyt's

1768
01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:45,840
Speaker 2: got some good football left in him, right.

1769
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:50,400
Speaker 1: And I don't want to call it an embarrassment of riches,

1770
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:53,800
Speaker 1: but man, is this a good problem to have? And

1771
01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:58,920
Speaker 1: and I don't think they're done necessarily adding defensive lineman Steve,

1772
01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:02,639
Speaker 1: because you go to camp before the draft, they had seven.

1773
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:05,320
Speaker 1: They've added three, they got ten, they got a couple

1774
01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:08,960
Speaker 1: of more undrafted. It's probably up to like twelve. Probably

1775
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:11,200
Speaker 1: want to add a few more bodies there just for

1776
01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:13,720
Speaker 1: training camp, you know, knowing the battle of attrition that

1777
01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 1: can be so you know, they still have some room

1778
01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:18,080
Speaker 1: to get to ninety.

1779
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:20,679
Speaker 2: Yeah on the list that they've got. Tentatively, they've got

1780
01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:22,280
Speaker 2: three on the list, so.

1781
01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:26,320
Speaker 1: We'll see maybe a tryout player gets signed, you know

1782
01:29:26,360 --> 01:29:26,880
Speaker 1: that kind of thing.

1783
01:29:26,960 --> 01:29:30,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, who knows. But none of these guys on the

1784
01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:34,320
Speaker 2: undrafted free agent list is officially you don't even know.

1785
01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, not until they come in here past their physicals

1786
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:39,200
Speaker 1: and then sign on the dotted line and then we'll

1787
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:42,600
Speaker 1: know for rookie mini camp and then OTAs and the like.

1788
01:29:43,160 --> 01:29:44,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's coming and it's coming fast.

1789
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:47,720
Speaker 2: Interesting too, there's gonna be somebody that pops out of

1790
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:50,799
Speaker 2: this undrafted rookie free agent class, whether it's whatever position.

1791
01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:51,719
Speaker 2: There always is.

1792
01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:54,280
Speaker 1: Yep, there's always a chance of that happening. That's it

1793
01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:57,280
Speaker 1: for our Wednesday edition. Steve and I back here tomorrow.

1794
01:29:57,400 --> 01:29:59,240
Speaker 1: Got a nice lineup for you. We'll share it with

1795
01:29:59,280 --> 01:30:08,600
Speaker 1: you tomorrow here one Bills Live. We'll see you one

1796
01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:09,519
Speaker 1: mm hm
