1 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: All right, So we're kind of working into our second 2 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: week here, um you know, starting to uh add in 3 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: some situational um football. So that'll, I think continue to 4 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,159 Speaker 1: be a part of what we do here over the 5 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: next two to three weeks. Each each day either working 6 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: on something or um reviewing something we've already covered. But 7 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 1: we're you know, in a in a time frame where 8 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: we need to get from basic situations to some specific situations. 9 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: And we still have a lot of work to do 10 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: on on a lot of our basic fundamentals in plays. 11 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: But you know, we've got to continue to move on. 12 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: That's that's where we're at, So keep doing that. I think, 13 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,639 Speaker 1: you know, the players are in good shape. I think 14 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: they're working hard, um, and we got a long way 15 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: to go and I've got a lot of things we 16 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: need to get improved. So just keep taking the day 17 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: by day, try to string together much compression. Have you 18 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: seen from Johnathan jokes? It really anyway that you finished 19 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: drug last year? This was like a busy kid. He's 20 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: a good player. He's a really good job for us. 21 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: He personally does a lot of things. Smart, very competitive, tough. 22 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad we have him. It's a good football player. Know, 23 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: when you have a tough practice like yesterday, a lot 24 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: of drops, how long do you hang on to that 25 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: and for a teaching lesson or do you just want 26 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: to turn the pay to move on real quickly, forget 27 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: about the tough day. We have a lot of mistakes 28 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: in every practice. That's where we're correcting them, trying to 29 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: improve them the next day. Did you like to get 30 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: back to basics staying focus more on the funny No, 31 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: it's just simple catching teams whatever it is. That's what 32 00:01:54,400 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: we've been doing. Is it if you build specifically for 33 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: young players, if they have a practice where they feel 34 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: like they didn't play up to a standard that they've 35 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: they've set for themselves to see holping me, they respond 36 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: to that situation. Look, we all have plays out there 37 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 1: that could be better. We'd like to have back or 38 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: whatever it is. And that's I don't care who you are, 39 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: head coach, starting player, backup player, rookie player. We all 40 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: have them, correct them to move on. That's what training 41 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: camps forward. Try to have a few, have as few 42 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: as possible. But and it's football. There's it's competitive on 43 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: the other side of the ball too. You're gonna make mistakes. 44 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: You're gonna learn things that and see things you could 45 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: have done better, coach better, played better, or whatever it is. So, yeah, 46 00:02:51,200 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: that's we're all doing that. You think Jamie Collins valid there? Yeah, 47 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: you have asked Jamie that. I can't really speak to Cleveland. 48 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: I wasn't there. It's they're different. They are deep regressing. 49 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: It's been great, it's had a great spring. Um, it's 50 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: had a good training camp. I think he's done everything 51 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: we asked him to do. He's done it. Well, glad 52 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: we have him. I could help our team. Have you 53 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: seen ky Daniella's progressive they seeing? I think everybody's making 54 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: progress out there. I mean you go out there and 55 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: practice every day. Everybody's getting better, competing against each other, 56 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: and there's still a lot of room for improvement for 57 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: all of us. So and we'll just let's see where 58 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: it goes. I think everybody's making progress. It's out there. 59 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: The guys that aren't out there, I think they're making 60 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: progress too. Hopefully some of them are closer to return. Um, well, 61 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: they definitely are. They're closer. So just so, I mean, look, 62 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: you're here every day working from whatever six thirty in 63 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: the morning until eight thirty at night. I mean I 64 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: hope we're getting better, is that teams get deeper into 65 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: training camp and get a better idea of what they're 66 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: positions of surplus and positions where they have shortages are. 67 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: But why aren't there more trades in the NFL. Well, 68 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: they'll be there. There'll be a lot of player transactions here, 69 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: probably in a couple of weeks a week to a 70 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I don't think you're seeing them now 71 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: because I think people are still trying to figure it out. 72 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: They're letting their players compete and they're trying to I 73 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: don't know, if you know, you might see the surpluses 74 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: and lack of them. Um, maybe have a pretty good 75 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: eye for those things. I don't know. I don't know 76 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: what they are. I don't think other coaches know what 77 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: they are either. I think that's what we're all trying 78 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: to figure out. So see how go Which I have 79 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: on paper and which I actually have on the field 80 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: definitely aren't always the same thing. So it takes a while. 81 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: It's a process to get to that point, and sometimes 82 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: you have to make decisions without a lot of information. 83 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 1: Then you just have to guesstimate at it. So, but 84 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: as more information comes in, I think you'll see more transactions, 85 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: whether however they the players get transacted. It doesn't have 86 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: to be traded, it could be other There are the 87 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: ways for players to exchange teams. But I think you're 88 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: there's no question you're going to see a lot more 89 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: of that as time goes on. Bill step On Gilmore 90 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: has repeatedly credited the coaching he's received for the BPBA 91 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: last and continue to prove it. He said, since team 92 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: called his technique lawless, where have you seen the greatest 93 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: change with his technique from when he sat into your 94 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: program two years ago to where he is now? And 95 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: stuff is a pretty good football player when we got him. 96 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: So you know, again, when you've been in an area 97 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: or in a program for a period of time, you 98 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: get used to doing things the way that that particular 99 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: team doesn't. Doesn't mean that somebody else is wrong. It's 100 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: just different and sometimes there's an adjustment period. But I 101 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: think the credit for what he does goes to him. Really, Yeah, 102 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: he's been he's been coached, but he's the one who's 103 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: put in the time that worked, the dedication and the 104 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: commitment to develop the consistency that he has, so they 105 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: work hand in hand. But I think you've got to 106 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: give him a lot of credit for um, what he's 107 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: been able to do. And I mean I think he's 108 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: been well coached. I think it coaches that he's had 109 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: done a good job. But I'm not saying that. But 110 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: you know, Stuff's a hard working kid that's very committed 111 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: and dedicated to his craft. So I respect that, and 112 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: that's the reason why he continues to continues to improve 113 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: as a player, even at this point in his career. 114 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: He's always looking to get better at things and he 115 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: does it. Is Is there a reason why we haven't 116 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: seen isaih when in many competitive situations? So point this scamp. 117 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: There's a reason why everything happens in camp? Yeah? Is 118 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: he behind where you thought he would be at this point? 119 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: We take everything day to day. Bill, Did you have 120 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: any interactions with that I think want to come to 121 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: you over the years. I don't know if you saw 122 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: that he passed away earlier this week? Yeah, a little bit, 123 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: not a lot. No, I mean I met him a 124 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: couple of times, or I've met him and talked to 125 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: him a couple of times. Now I don't have a 126 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: lot of personal interaction with him. You should agree about 127 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: that left tactual situation. It's super sexual, right. We have 128 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: a lot of things that we need to work on 129 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: in every area of the team everything. So I don't 130 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: think I feel good about anything right now. I don't 131 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: feel necessarily bad about it. We'll see how it is, 132 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: start to find out when competitive situations in the next 133 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: next couple of weeks. You might not really know where 134 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: we are on some things until the middle of the season. 135 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll see what do you think of 136 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: scioper as a player would skills? He has skips, A 137 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: hard working kid. He's got a lot of length, pretty 138 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: athletic for a size, doesn't have a lot of experience. 139 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: Played right tackle, played guard last year in Detroit. This 140 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: works on the left tackles. Also played right tackle, so 141 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: as you know, he joined us late last year. It 142 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: was after the season when he joined the team, so 143 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: you know, this is kind of really his first crack 144 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: out of But he works hard, he gets better every day. 145 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: I'll see you're still in the same position with Josh Gordon, 146 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: which just waited David blog. We don't have anything to 147 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: do with Josh Gordon. This is not a big union. 148 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: Talk to the league. We're not. We have no we 149 00:08:53,640 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: have no control with Josh Gordon Terence work to the 150 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 1: most complete special team. Do you see a possible role 151 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: for him all defense? Sure, say a role for anybody 152 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: who can earn one. So trying to camp for as 153 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: might now impressed you really here? Yeah? Again, I don't 154 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: think all the players that are out there are working hard. 155 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: They're all improven. You know, there's a good competition, have 156 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: a good competition. A lot of spots out of EA 157 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: one of them. See how it all plays out. Jacoby 158 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: Myers obviously been a receiver for a while now, but 159 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: he has a quarterbacking sort of background. Have you noticed 160 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: that that has maybe helped him at all as he 161 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: goes through this process of transitioning to this level. Yeah. Well, 162 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: he's a smart kid, and he you know, understands and 163 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: has versatility position versatility, understands the offense. Um. Um, like 164 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: any rookie and a young player, there's a lot of 165 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:04,359 Speaker 1: things he needs to work on, technique wise, and recognition 166 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,719 Speaker 1: and just route adjustments. It's just a lot of fine points. Um. 167 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: He basically knows what to do, but you know, there 168 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: are a lot of subtleties and nuances that all receivers 169 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: need to need to pick up, um, certainly in our offense, 170 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: and he's doing That's there's more than we've had time 171 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: to get down yet. But he's making progress there. I 172 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: mean that comes from his quarterback background, or his experience, 173 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: or his intelligence or learning. You know, I'm really sure, 174 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,599 Speaker 1: but he's that's not really an issue. He's he's a 175 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: smart kid and learn as well. Someone who's followed the 176 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: game for a long time, what did you learn see 177 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: from Nick Botocanti's career, whether it be intoing your connection 178 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: through New England or as a player in general. Yeah, 179 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: I mean I really haven't spent a lot of a 180 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: lot of time on that one, so I don't want to. 181 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, you know, he had a strong career 182 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 1: and he's you know, great passion for the game. Um, 183 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: and you know it was very connected to the game 184 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: through his son and um, you know, as an alumnus, 185 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 1: as an FF al alumnus, is very active in a 186 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: lot of you know those type of events and so forth. Um. 187 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: But again, I don't have a didn't have a strong 188 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: personal connection to him, you know, questions as far as cood. 189 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: He goes he was talking about how he's kind of 190 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: making a special effort to get coaching. So some of 191 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: the people that's someone else's aside, joby tries to kind 192 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: of put in your conversation to see if they're saying 193 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: concluding from it. Is that sort of proactive attitude something 194 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: that you like move player. Yeah, I mean I think 195 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: you know it looked they're all getting plenty of coaching, 196 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: so I don't think that's a problem, but sure that 197 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: more you had to learn more. You know, the more 198 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: you can understand about what you do, what the people 199 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: around you do, what the defense is doing, what the 200 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 1: people on the other side of the ball are doing, 201 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: I mean, that's all good. It's all eventually going to 202 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 1: work to your advantage. The more you can understand the 203 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: big picture and all of it. So sometimes it's it's 204 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: hard to get everything the first time around. Sometimes the 205 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: third fourth time around, you hear things, or you hear 206 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: things said to the guy next to you, or maybe 207 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: being the defender that's being coached across from you, you 208 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 1: hear that the coach correcting him, and it just helps 209 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: you learn more about, you know, the overall your position, 210 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,439 Speaker 1: the area that you're involved in. So yeah, man, I 211 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 1: think we have a lot of guys on our team 212 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,719 Speaker 1: to fall into that category. But that's understanding the big 213 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: picture is certainly the goal, more than just memorizing an assignment. 214 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: You have to know what to do, but the more 215 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: you can understand the total concept of what's going on, 216 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: then you know, really the easier it is to execute it. Okay, 217 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: all right, thank you more.
