I get to show you inside access 4 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,559 Speaker 1: of everything I saw from the rookies, and then Jason 5 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: and I talked about what we want to see in 6 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: the third preseason game against New England. It all starts 7 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: right out. Welcome to Ticket the Draft Podcast. I'm Logan 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: Paulson here with Justin Guy, Jason, and Jason. It's always 9 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: fun to be doing this show with you because we 10 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: get to review actual football. We have a joint practice 11 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: to review from Miami and the preseason game against Miami, 12 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: which is always a critical point of evaluation. 13 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm super excited about this one because I 14 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 2: got to be in Miam. 15 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: Yes, you did, so that was that was. 16 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 2: Fun for me. Really actually honored that I got to 17 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: go down right, It was Seriously, it was great that 18 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: I got to be there, especially in the joint practice, 19 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 2: because you hear the media talking all the time, you guys, you, 20 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 2: Tanna and Fred talking all the time about joint practices 21 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 2: where it really matters, it's not the preseason game. And 22 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 2: seeing what happens in joint practice versus the preseason game. Like, yeah, 23 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 2: you guys are right, Like there's a different energy and 24 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 2: intensity level at joint practice down in Miami then there 25 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 2: was at the game. Not that the game wasn't intense, 26 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: their guys playing hard, but it's just you can tell 27 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: that the joint practice where the real work I would say, 28 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: is getting in. 29 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely more high level. So I'll ask you because 30 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: I talked to you know, all the people that I 31 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: talked to on the beat who were at practice. I 32 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: talked to you about it, but you were there firsthand, 33 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: anything from the young guys, anything in general that stuck 34 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: out from the practice. 35 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: Well as far as like big picture, like the commanders 36 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: looked like they were the ones that were really clicking. 37 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 2: And I guess, like maybe every practice can be a 38 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 2: little bit different depending on where your installs are. Just 39 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: you know, sometimes you're just feeling it. You know, sometimes 40 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: you have a good day. Washington was having a good 41 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: day and during that practice they were they were clicking, 42 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 2: and Miami maybe they're just installing new things, or maybe 43 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: it was just the commanders are good and we don't 44 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: know how good they are, and they could BEAMMI did 45 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 2: because Miami was struggling. I'm not going to give you like, oh, 46 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: here's what they were running, here's it, because I couldn't 47 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: really look at that. 48 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: There's those two fields, right. I think that's the thing 49 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: fans need to just be aware of. Is like when 50 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: you're watching a joint practice, it's the one offense versus 51 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: the one defense usually for the other team, right, and 52 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: then if you want to see the two the one 53 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: offense for the Commanders, it's on a far field. It's 54 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: not in the same area, so and they're happening simultaneously, 55 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: so you really got to kind. 56 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: Of and there's no tape. It's not like you can 57 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 2: rewatch something. So like, yeah, I went up as high 58 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 2: as I could in the stands, and Jaden and New Washington, 59 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Oh is on one side, the defense is on the 60 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: close side, and I'm trying to catch everything that's going on. 61 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,679 Speaker 2: Sometimes it would line up where a play happens down there, 62 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: cool jump over here, plays happening here. Sometimes they're going 63 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: on simultaneously. So you missed some stuff, But there were 64 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 2: things that stuck out. I'm sure a lot of Beat 65 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: reporters already talked about this. This was definitely made its rounds, 66 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: but there's a rookie show, and man that Mike Sanders 67 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: will look real good. He looked real good. 68 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: It doesn't surprise me. I mean, it doesn't surprise me 69 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 1: at all because he looked in the game. He looked 70 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: in the first Preces game. There's some things you can 71 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: talk about in terms of potential coverage responsibilities with the game. 72 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: But you said he had a one on one matchup 73 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: with Tyreek Hill though, way, Yeah, it. 74 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 2: Kind of worked out that way. They were doing red 75 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: zone drills and there was pressure up the middle. I 76 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 2: want to say it was Alan alan in Payin up 77 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: the middle putting pressure on two. So he kind of 78 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,839 Speaker 2: floats the ball out the Tyreek who's one on one 79 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 2: and the matchup was Mikey. Mikey Sanderson had to be 80 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: on that one on one, so I guess you know 81 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: Two was saying, well, I'm going to put a ball 82 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: up for the number one voted best player in the 83 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 2: NFL and he's going to get a win. But Sanderson 84 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 2: was like, nah, played it. He was right with him, 85 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 2: met the ball at the highest point with him and 86 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 2: knocked it right out. Love to see it like He's 87 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: it wasn't too big for him, right like, that's what 88 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: you're excited about. 89 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: And I think again, that's something that's shown up with 90 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: him quite a bit. Anybody else, I mean, I've heard it, 91 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: Jane Daniels had a good practice. Anybody else that you 92 00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: felt like did a good job. 93 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't have to talk about Daniels. I'm sure 94 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: everybody's heard. He was just lighting it up in the 95 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: red zone for whatever reason. He was just really clicking. 96 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: It looked on and I wish they could have been 97 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: down there because I this is like where the football 98 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: nerded me gets really antsy, because like in the preseason, 99 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: it's been Cliffs kept it pretty straightforward, like he's game 100 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: planned obviously, but it's pretty straightforward, and I just wish 101 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: I could have seen because out of practice there's been 102 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: a bunch of different wrinkles and to see those wrinkles 103 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: execute a different against a different team would have been 104 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: pretty cool. 105 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 2: You noticed it most in the red zone, right, Like, 106 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: that's where it stood out the most in that red 107 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: zone period of the difference of the teams and who 108 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 2: was having a good day in that because the Miami 109 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: offense was struggling to move the ball and the score 110 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 2: where on the other side of the field. It was 111 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: just boom, touchdown, boom, touchdown, ten yard play touchdown right, Like, 112 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 2: it was just wow, right. And I don't have any 113 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: more analysis beyond that, but I will say in like 114 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: the team drills to moving the ball, Tyler Owens like 115 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 2: he just stands out. He had a pass breakup with 116 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: a big hit across the middle, just laying into a guy. 117 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: You're not catching this ball here. He had a great 118 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: kickoff coverage when they were doing the special teams period. 119 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 2: He was the first one down there, getting the guy 120 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: down real fast, real quick. I think the first tackle 121 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,239 Speaker 2: was I want to say in like the fifteen yard 122 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: line area, which is fantastic, and the other one he's 123 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 2: just the first guy there at the twenty yard line. 124 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 2: So he's just it looks like he's everywhere right when 125 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: he's out there. He is a heat seeking missile to 126 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: that ball. 127 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: And we're going to talk about him more when we 128 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: get to the preseason evaluation, obviously, But there was a 129 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: play where Miami is running like a single back power 130 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: so and basically like you're in the gun backs offset 131 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: to the left, you're pulling the left guard to the 132 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: right side of the formation and Tyler Owens is man 133 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: on the tight end, so heading blocks down, it looks 134 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: like he's running a route. So Tyler Owens runs with 135 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: him like he's running a rout. There's a huge hole. 136 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: It was like the fifty four yard run that Miami 137 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: had in the third quarter. And the back looks like 138 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: he's gone, and so Tyler Owens is at the line 139 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: of scrimmage him. I got to give everybody credit. Dominique 140 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: Hampton and chig A Newsium all were at a full 141 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: speed sprint and so to see Hampton, who's big, and 142 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: then Tyler Owens, who's bigger, and then Newseum who's big. 143 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: All these rookie guys, two of which were un drafted, 144 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: working like that on the pursuit and getting him down. 145 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: Tyler Owens ultimately makes the tackle. I think, again, we've 146 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: talked about this a lot, but you want dudes that 147 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: are going to be self starters and they are going 148 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: to play football hard, and they just did that at 149 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: the highest level. And Tyler Owens that play like those 150 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: effort plays. That's a guy you can bet on consistently. 151 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: And it was very very cool to see. 152 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let's move to the preseason game. But I 153 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 2: want to bounce off of that a little bit and 154 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 2: have you expand some on that play specifically because in 155 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: you know, I was talking to someone after the game 156 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 2: and they were like, oh, god man, that's not good. 157 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 2: You can't give up runs like that. And and while 158 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: that's true, right, Like, I think what you take away 159 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: from that play is exactly what you're talking about. It's 160 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: the hustle, it's the effort because you're not the defense 161 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 2: isn't scheming for everything, right, So like that could be 162 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 2: the perfect play against the absolute perfect defense to run 163 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: that play against. And so there's your massive hole. But 164 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, Like these guys in conflict who are 165 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: undrafted in rookies are still gonna hustle and chase this 166 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 2: guy down and be there. That was one of three 167 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: tackles that Tyler Owens had that game he had to 168 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: tackle for a loss in that So we had a 169 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 2: lot of rookies on this team that played really well 170 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 2: in that preseason game. That's something to get really excited about. So, Logan, 171 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 2: you were at the preseason game doing radio with Braandon London, 172 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 2: you were on the field on the sideline. Tell me 173 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: about the rookies give me some good analysis. 174 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. So, I mean Jane Daniels, I think is a 175 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: guy we can just start with just because it's he's 176 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: the guy, right, he just declared the starter. We got 177 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,559 Speaker 1: to talk about him a little bit, and I think 178 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: the thing about him is just how efficient he makes 179 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: it look. You know, I don't know how complicated the 180 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: offense is, if it's gonna they're gonnadd layers of complexity, 181 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: I would assume they are. But he just has a 182 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: really good mastery of the offense as it exists, understands 183 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: coverages much better than I thought, was able to kind 184 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: of find some really good matchups. And then the thing 185 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: that I probably underrated on my first rewatching of the game, 186 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: but going through it the second time, was that he 187 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: has his feet and his accuracy are excellent, and it 188 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: allows him to make the mundane look exceptional. And I 189 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: think that's why it's I'm very positively encouraged by it. 190 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's gonna have a flawless rookie year. 191 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's going to be the rookie of 192 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: the Year, but I just think the foundation that the 193 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: staff has laid for him, the foundation that he's laid 194 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: for himself is exciting and I can't wait for Week 195 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: one to see him kind of perform and against real defense. 196 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 2: Now being that this is our draft show and we're 197 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: following up after all that draft pre draft analysis that 198 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: we put with watching him one tape with LSU, do 199 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 2: you feel like that's supporting what you saw or do 200 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: you feel like it's like, oh, this is I saw 201 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: wrinkles of this, but now I'm really seeing it. It 202 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: feels more secure, I guess, in like what the skill 203 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 2: sets you thought he could bring over are It's like, oh, yeah, 204 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 2: all right, cool, we nailed that. 205 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, So I think you know, we went through many 206 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: iterations of Jaden Daniels who were up, we were down, 207 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: and ultimately I settled pretty highly on him, you know, 208 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: like I like JJ McCarthy more, but I like Jayden 209 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, And I think one of the things 210 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: about him was like, just how does his footwork and 211 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: fundamentals translate to the NFL? And as I watched him more, 212 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: you saw how good they were. Yeah, And I think 213 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: that's what you've seen from him, the footwork, the balance 214 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 1: in the pocket, the consistent throwing mechanics, the quick release, 215 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: the layering of throws is probably better than I thought 216 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: it was having seen it in practice. Like his ability 217 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: to layer throw is tremendous. But that other stuff, how 218 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: important that is, how absolutely critical that is to letting 219 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: a quarterback start fast, because if they're throwing, mechanics aren't 220 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: locked in, you know, and it doesn't have to look 221 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: the same every single time. Like Patrick Mahomes, I'd say 222 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: his throw mechanics are pretty locked in, but it doesn't 223 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: look normal. But he can consistently deliver a football with accuracy, 224 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: it sets up everything else to be easy. Now. I 225 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: think the other thing that I underrated in the evaluation 226 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: was just how smart he is and how he studies 227 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: and the ability to be ahead of the offense on 228 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: the install to know coverages, Like I can't overstate how 229 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: important that is when you talk about the best guys 230 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: to ever do it. The best guys that I played with, 231 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: they knew coverages so well. They knew where the weak 232 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: spots were, they knew where the matchup was, they knew 233 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: how to manipulate coverage with their eyes. And he's not 234 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: doing it to the level of like Tom Brady necessarily, 235 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: but he's doing it better than I've seen a lot 236 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: of rookie quarterbacks do it. And again, the fundamental the 237 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: physical fundamentals coupled with the tremendous work ethic and un 238 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: understanding are probably you saw the fundamentals, but the work 239 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: ethic is the thing that is really driving this. 240 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 2: So why do you think I don't want to say 241 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 2: we missed it, but why do you think that was 242 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 2: hard to see that in his college film? Is it 243 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: because of the type of style that LSU runs? And 244 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: maybe and the question was, is LSU running this type 245 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 2: of offense because of Jade and Daniels or is Jade 246 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 2: and Daniels just doing what he's told here and he's 247 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: capable of more? Like what what do you think it was? 248 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: I think that was it. I think the offense that 249 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: they had with the receivers they had outside let them 250 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: push the ball down the field more effectively, and you 251 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: didn't have to he didn't have to work underneath as much. 252 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: And when you got the horses like let her go. 253 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 1: And so I think everyone said, oh, this is the 254 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: offense that best fits Jade Daniels and and that and 255 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: during silly season, which is draft season, you hear that 256 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: that conversation all the time. But I think that that 257 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 1: offense is just was best for LSU. You know, they 258 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: had two guys to receive that went very high in 259 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: the drafts, right, and he's shown that he can do 260 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: more in practice. He's shown stuff that I think is 261 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: tremendous in terms of anticipating throws over the middle of 262 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: the field, attacking space with the ball like that. Stuff 263 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: is super high level and we never saw we saw 264 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: I mean we talked about this. We saw probably ten 265 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: throws like that, yeah, maybe more fifteen ish over the 266 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 1: course of a whole college season that indicated that. So 267 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: you're kind of like, well, I don't know if he 268 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: can do it. And the thing I would say I 269 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: would always fall back on it was the same thing 270 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: with JJ McCarthy is how do you a your footwork 271 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: and fundamentals right? Is it there? And then be how 272 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: do you anticipate and see throws? Because with both him 273 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: and JJ, I thought when they had to do it, 274 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: they did it really well as compared to a guy 275 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: like Drake May hypothetically who struggle with that a little 276 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: bit more. And I think, again, not every case is 277 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: the same, but it's definitely something I'm going to take 278 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: forward in my evaluation. And again we're still so early 279 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: in the process. But and again I think the main 280 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: thing here, which is something that we talked about that 281 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: we didn't have access to, was just a work ethic. Mean, 282 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: he has just blown the doors off that completely. 283 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean that was the main concern, like 284 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 2: I think most people had with Jayden, was he just 285 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 2: doesn't throw over the middle of the field, and the 286 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 2: default was he because he can't do it, instead of 287 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 2: well they're not asking him to do it, right, And 288 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 2: now that he's being asked to do it, I mean, 289 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: as just a guy that's watching him here, I'm not 290 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 2: concerned about it at all because I've seen it in practice. 291 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: I say, in practice you see it more. 292 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: Seeing it now. So it's like I'm now looking back 293 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 2: on it, going, well, that was LSU decided not to 294 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 2: do that. 295 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: And it's weird. 296 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: Hell, like whatever reason. 297 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 1: It's weird. All the time we spent on him, how much, 298 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: how much film we watched, and you still don't get 299 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: it because you don't have that insider. 300 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,599 Speaker 2: In front well Adam Peters and the staff here, And 301 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: that's why I'm just a guy asking you the question, 302 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 2: what are some other rookies that stood out that were 303 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: impressive in this game. 304 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, so obviously we talked about Tyler Owens. He's he's 305 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: just a physical specimen dude. Teams he did a great job. 306 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: I love the tag for loss that he had. Like 307 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: there was even a reverse where Jemie Reeves missed the tackle. 308 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: Really nice play by him. Just got to finish the 309 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: play where the reverse is coming back across and there's 310 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: guys that there's blockers out in front, there's a little 311 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: bit of uncertainty, and Tyler Owens just missiles in there, 312 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: cuts in front of the blockers, the tips, the tips 313 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: the shoe, the guy stumbles and it kind of gives 314 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: the confidence for the rest of the people to get 315 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: in there. His length in press coverage is on display. 316 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: I just physically, he's just very impressive and the physicality 317 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: that he's playing with and talk about a tough eval. 318 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: I remember watching him in college being like he doesn't 319 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: really take good angles, Like how physical is he? And 320 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: that has not shown up at all, And so you 321 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: just say, man, maybe the coaches weren't communicating with him effectively, 322 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: they didn't teach him effectively, because he's been at every 323 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: stage of the evaluation just very impressive. Another guy in 324 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: the same boat is Dominie Campton, and they've kind of 325 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: moved him the linebacker, and usually when you move a 326 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: safe to the linebacker, it looks a little rough. And 327 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: I just thought he played with good physicality and there's 328 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: times where he's getting physically outmatched for sure. Big he's 329 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: a big guy six to two. I think he's two 330 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: fifteen two seventeen, so not small, but small for a linebacker. 331 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: The coverage value he added playing linebacker, his ability to 332 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: get under stuff and see concepts was great. I was like, 333 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: it made me think, like, if I'm building a team, 334 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: you want converted safeties in that role now because it 335 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: helps you so much in the middle of the defense. 336 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: And then he ran to the football well like he 337 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: was aggressive to the football. He played hard and much 338 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: like Tyler Owans. We talked about how he flashes. I 339 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: think Dominie Campton there was just so just as an example, 340 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: on the Jamon Davis fumble, he's in coverage and Dominie 341 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: Campton is the first person to the ball. He almost 342 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: gets knocked out because someone's diving on the ball and 343 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: they kind of bump into each other. But like that's 344 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: just how he played the game. And when I see 345 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: him and Tyler Owens, to me, there's like there are 346 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: two dudes that are very Dan Quinn Adam Peters esque 347 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: and how they played the game. 348 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it almost seems like they're being preached on defense. 349 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 2: At that ball's life. 350 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: He didn't get there. Huh, dude, that's what it looks like. 351 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: That's way they're all flying to the ball. Dan said 352 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 2: in the press conference, coach said, I want at the 353 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 2: end of every play for defense, like all guys are 354 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 2: in the pitcher right, everybody's in that frame. You see it. 355 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 2: I mean you see it on the base On the 356 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 2: most basic play it's just a power run up the 357 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 2: middle or something, all eleven guys are there, and if 358 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: it's a reverse, all eleven guys are trying to be there. 359 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: They are hustling to that ball. 360 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: And there's something like so primal about defense, like something 361 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: so simple compared to offense, which is alwa splits in 362 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: alignments and motions and shifts. And in defense, it's like 363 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: if you get a defense that is just they're going 364 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: to run and hit, Like it covers up a lot 365 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: of bad like a lot of bad stuff, you know 366 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And I think, like what you're seeing 367 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: here is the foundational elements of that because even with 368 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: the starting group, and I know this show isn't about this, 369 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: Like they just ran to the football and they were 370 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: able to kind of contain Miami's offense. And you can 371 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: tell they didn't really prep too much for what Miami 372 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: was doing. But it it just it's nice to have young, 373 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: young football players that are doing that consistently. 374 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 2: Well, you're talking about the culture that a rookie comes into, right, 375 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 2: You want a good culture. You want a good coaching 376 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 2: staff that knows how to take a rookie and plug 377 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 2: them in, and you want vets that can do that, right, 378 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 2: Like that is something we talked about in the lead 379 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: up to the draft, is like a lot of these 380 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 2: guys have talent. Some of it may be where are 381 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 2: they going to land as far as how high there's 382 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 2: ceiling is going to be right out the gate? Right, Like, 383 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 2: can you speak to that a little bit as being 384 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: a rookie coming in and like the coaching staff being 385 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 2: like you're coming into a good situation and how that 386 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 2: helped you. 387 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent. I mean, like for me, it 388 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: was like I had good mentorship in the room. I 389 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: had some veterans Coolly and Fred and they had both 390 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: very different mental mentoring styles. There was other guys, a 391 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: guy named Lee Vickers and Sean Ryan who were from 392 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: different teams, veterans, but they kind of showed me generally 393 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: what it meant to be a pro. And then you 394 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: have London Fletcher, you have Santanamas, you have Mike Sellers, 395 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: you have Phil Daniels, you have guys that have played 396 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: for fifteen plus years and their process. You're like, this 397 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: is what it's going to take for me to get there. 398 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: And then the standard of coaching too, you know, like 399 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: talk about like like John Embry who was my tight 400 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: end coach, then Kyle being the OC and being like 401 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: this is what we're looking for and being like I 402 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: can get there. Yeah, it's it's it's it's essential. And 403 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: everyone and I think, like this is a draft shows 404 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: we can talk about this, but everyone talks about the prospect. 405 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: But if the culture that they're going into and the 406 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: environment in the situation doesn't suit them, they're not going 407 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: to do well. Like it's just an unequivocal fact, like 408 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: they're not going to do well, like it takes a 409 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: lot to overcome a bad situation. 410 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, Well, it doesn't look like we have a 411 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 2: bad situation here because we had rookies popping off in 412 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: this game like they were playing very well. Any others 413 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 2: on the defensive side before we switch to the offense. 414 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean. The two guys that on this list 415 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: that stick out to me are Chickenousium. I mean, I 416 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 1: just love how he plays. You know, he's he's big man, 417 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 1: he's long, like they definitely have a type that they're 418 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: looking for, as he was tight in coverage. I know 419 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,719 Speaker 1: they completed that back shoulder fade on him. But I 420 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: love his footwork. I love his patience. You get a 421 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: nice physical tackle on a run if I remember correctly. Yep. 422 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: He He's a guy that I think is gonna maybe 423 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: not this year, but I think he'll be starting for 424 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 1: this team in a couple of years and some in 425 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: some capacity, Like he's gonna develop, he's gonna he's gonna 426 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: red shirt this year. It'll be a teams guy maybe 427 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: whatever it is, but I love that kind of early sign. 428 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 1: The other guy was a Javonte Jean Baptiste, and he's 429 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: an interesting guy. To watch because he doesn't flash on 430 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: a down to down like he's not like one of 431 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: those guys where it's like, oh my gosh, like with 432 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: Dominie Campton or Tyler Owens where they're just with their 433 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: hair on fire every single time. Like he plays hard, 434 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,479 Speaker 1: but there's like he'll get locked up on a block. 435 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: But the plays that he does make, he's running, he's finishing, 436 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: he's working. And again, that self starter mentality, especially with 437 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: a young guy, is so so important. So to see 438 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: the signs of life there and to see some production 439 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: associated with it, I thought was great. Ben Sinnett, are 440 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 1: we doing We just did defense right, Yeah, let's offense. Yeah. 441 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: And then Ben Sennett, every time I watch him play, 442 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: I just he's just a physical, tough dude. Catches the football, 443 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: he's gonna finish. Runs yeah, yards after catch, big deal. 444 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: And then Luke McCaffrey. Great to see some signs alive 445 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: from him because he does everything the right way on 446 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: the field, he just hasn't been a rewarded with production. 447 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: And now to see him play gunner, to see him block, 448 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: to see him catch a tough ball on a seam, 449 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: to see him run a nice dig. 450 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 2: Route, he's getting the opportunity. 451 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think as that grows and as he 452 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,959 Speaker 1: gets and as he matures like another guy, and we're 453 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,719 Speaker 1: gonna say this about a lot of these guys, he 454 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: is one hundred percent of pro He's a self starter 455 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: nine like ninety nine like dial it all the way 456 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: up as high as it'll go. Like that guy's going 457 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: to get better at football, and the more opportunities he gets, 458 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: the better he's gonna play. And so it's nice to 459 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: see him kind of lay some of that foundation. And 460 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: a guy that you know, they had him try to 461 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: return some punts in the game. He only had one 462 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 1: opportunity where he had a fair catch it inside the five. 463 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: Don't love that decision, but I think he can do 464 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: that for you, and so I want to see him 465 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: get some more of those opportunities because I think it'd 466 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: be a big part of this team. 467 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 2: Do you mind if we move on to New England 468 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 2: because I want to bring New England's exciting for me. 469 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 2: I'm excited for them to come in here, specifically because 470 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: of all the work and time and effort we put 471 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 2: into quarterbacks in the draft process. Drake May's coming in 472 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 2: and there was a national debate. Is it Jaden? Is 473 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: it Drake going at number two? Obviously, Jayden, we're feeling 474 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 2: very good about that. I want to see Drake though, 475 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 2: want to see what he does here with New England. 476 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: It's a different culture he's going into there. As we 477 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: were talking about, not that like we it's a bad 478 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 2: it's just new right. A lot of young guys, a 479 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 2: lot of young talent up there. So do you have 480 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: any Are you excited at all about Drake coming in 481 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 2: here and does like how he play, does that affect 482 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 2: your feelings at all towards the draft process in general? 483 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 2: Like are you looking for something not to look back at, 484 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 2: like Jayden, I'm not talking about a comparison there. I'm 485 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 2: talking about you like looking back, like to adjust your 486 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 2: evaluation in the draft process based on maybe what you 487 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: see or don't see from Drake. 488 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, I mean every every time you do a 489 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: draft evil it impacts it, right. So with Drake May 490 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: it's one hundred percent because I know a lot of 491 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: people really liked him. And then I think we talked 492 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 1: about this at nauseum when we were doing draft season stuff. 493 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: Is he he was a special talent throw in the football, 494 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: He was inconsistent, but he was very special and he 495 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: had this kind of big body and it was like 496 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: intoxicating and you were kind of and and there were 497 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,719 Speaker 1: people that were like, he is the man, He's going 498 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: to be the next Justin Herbert, Josh Allen, whoever it is, right, 499 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: And there were things about his game that kind of 500 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: threw me, But I want to see him in person. 501 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,360 Speaker 1: Like everyone says, those things aren't correctable, but if you're 502 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: the right kind of worker, and if you have the 503 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: right kind of approach, like do they look better than 504 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: they did when we were watching him at North Carolina? Right? 505 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: And I know this is preseason, so I always like 506 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: to say that, like all of this draft stuff like 507 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: these are these are data points, but it's going to 508 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: be different when it's real football. And so yeah, I'm 509 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: excited to wat him one hundred percent. I'm excited to 510 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: watch Joe Milton too, because we watched and spend a 511 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: lot of time on him. And I'm excited to watch 512 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: the receiver from you dub who what's his name, Oh, 513 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: Gosh Polk Jalen Polk right, yea out there and then 514 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: Javon Baker's out there too, Like those I want to 515 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: see what those guys look like, because I liked every 516 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 1: one of those guys I just mentioned. I liked all 517 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 1: of them, you know what I mean? So how does 518 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: that skill set translate? You know, Polk and Baker have 519 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: done a good job up there. Does it continue to develop? 520 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 1: And do they do those reservations I had about their 521 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: play style? Are they valid? Or are they or are 522 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: they real? You know? Are they or is it non consequential? 523 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: So for everybody it's important. But yeah, in terms of 524 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: drawing conclusions, like how's he see in the field? How 525 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 1: is mechanics? That's a big one for me for him 526 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 1: because like I thought, he was just so inconsistent at 527 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: times throwing the football and it made me so nervous. 528 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: And so is that gone? Is he more consistent? Is 529 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: he on rhythm? Is he on time? Is he making plays? 530 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: And it's the same thing with Joe Milton, Like let's 531 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: talk about him for a second, Like I can't wait 532 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: to see him play, but I know he had that 533 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 1: really good preseason game. But I went back and watched 534 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 1: it and a lot of the same issues that he 535 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: had at Tennessee are in that drive. 536 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 2: Yeah. Sorry, I don't mean to cut you off. But 537 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: I was mentioning this to you the other day. We 538 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 2: know he's big and athletic, and we know he has 539 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 2: a cannon. 540 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: So uh, no new information was coming. 541 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 2: Ye, that's new. But I was watching. I was watching 542 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 2: that game, the very first preseason game for them, and 543 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 2: he makes a just a cannon of a throw for 544 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: thirty yards, hits a wide receiver, wide receiver goes in 545 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 2: for a touchdown, and the broadcast is just like, oh 546 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: my gosh, what a throw, what a play? Just perfect. Well, 547 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: when you watch it, he chucks that ball super hard. 548 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 2: Receiver has to slow down, it's on his back hip. 549 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,959 Speaker 2: If there's a defender in that area off that blown coverage, 550 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 2: it's not a great play. But we knew that. That's 551 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 2: what Joe Milton was like, he's gonna throw it hard. 552 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 2: It's not going to be incredibly accurate, and in this 553 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 2: that situation worked out for him. Now maybe he said, oh, 554 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 2: I don't have to be accurate here because there's no 555 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 2: one there. I'm just gonna I don't know, but like 556 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 2: sometimes you have to look at some like you. I 557 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 2: almost felt like it was confirmation biased for me and watching. 558 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 1: That's gotta be careful. You know. I think the thing 559 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: that I with with Joe Melton specifically is everything feels 560 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: a little late because he's got a rocket arm, and 561 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: I was hoping that it wouldn't feel that way. Yeah, 562 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: but it's still like with Jayden Is the confidence is 563 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: perfect Jayden. It's always on time, it's always on rhythm. 564 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: He understands the urgency to get the ball out. He's 565 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 1: not stressing the old line, Joe. He's stressed the heck 566 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: out of the ol line of Tennessee because he's gonna 567 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: wait to see stuff up when he's gonna fire an 568 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: absolute rocket in there. And I was hoping to see 569 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: a more polished product. But it was a lot of 570 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 1: the same with him. And again I'm not saying he 571 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: can't grow and change, but that was something. 572 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 2: That, yeah, you can do that. You can do that 573 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,239 Speaker 2: when you're running out there against guys that are you know, 574 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: this isn't the downplay there, but it's not the ones, right, 575 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 2: it's not the starters. So like you can get away 576 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: with that a little bit in preseason. So but I 577 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 2: love the potential of Milton, like those athletic things that arm. 578 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, like that's and so like you're always You're always like, oh, 579 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: maybe this is it, and so yeah, I want to 580 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: see him play. Heck y, I want to see him play. 581 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 2: Let's move back to Washington, because that's what we really care. Yeah, no, no, 582 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 2: no no. I love talking about the draft process, but 583 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 2: with watching it, are any rookies you think that are 584 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 2: gonna maybe not play? It's like the coaching staff is like, 585 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 2: you guys are ready, yeah, and like we we feel 586 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 2: comfortable with our evaluation of you as a rookie, so 587 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 2: you know, maybe just not get as many reps in 588 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 2: this time or none at all. Versus do you think 589 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 2: there's any rookies that are like, could maybe run this 590 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 2: whole game and need the need to play. 591 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: Well, Yeah, so I think some of the guys we 592 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: talked about already probably won't play. Like Ben Sinnett, I 593 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: don't think. I don't think he has to play. I 594 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: think he's shown you what you need to He's shown 595 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: enough shwing a physicality, showed what he did what he 596 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 1: does well catching the football. Not he can't run every 597 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 1: single route, but the stuff he does he does really well. 598 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: So I don't think he needs to play. Mike Sandra still, 599 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: I don't think needs to play like he's There was 600 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of issue in terms of like some 601 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 1: coverage communication stuff I thought in this game, But I 602 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: think it was more the call as a call in 603 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: situation as opposed to him messing it up. 604 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 2: Which comes from preseason, right, which comes from. 605 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: Because you're not prepped it. You haven't like prepped it. 606 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: So it's like, not like it was a bad call. 607 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it's yeah, definitely not. It's just like one 608 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 1: of those things that happens in preseason, right, It's like 609 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: we're not totally on the same page, like and the 610 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: crazy thing is like him in the corner on the 611 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: same page. But then the MIC's like and the win's 612 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: so interesting about It's like they're basically running like two posts, 613 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: like one's a short post, one's a deep post. So 614 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: corner matches the deep post, he matches the short post, 615 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: and then they run like a pseudo screen behind it, 616 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: like with a full back and a tailback blocking for 617 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: like one blocking for the other, and no one matches 618 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: the screen. And so in the call, like you probably 619 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: want to bump it, but if you haven't communicated that 620 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: in your short shortyardis calls, which is a very unusual 621 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: call by Miami, like you're not going to get it 622 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: covered correctly. And that's one of the things about the 623 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: preseason that is hard because like, is that Mike's fault? 624 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: Maybe is it the linebacker's well maybe you don't really 625 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,719 Speaker 1: know until you get into the season. But I do 626 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: think he's played well enough, he's played physical enough, He's 627 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: he's done everything you need from a physical standpoint. For me, 628 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: I don't need to see him. A guy that I 629 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: think I would like to see play if if healthy 630 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: is Brandon Coleman. I want to see him get out 631 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 1: there and watch him play, because like, he looks so 632 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: good in practice and we haven't seen him kind of 633 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: through the main the teeth of evaluation for the rookies. 634 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: So if he's healthy, like, get him out there, let's 635 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: see what that looks like. I know, I know they 636 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 1: want him for the regular season, but if I'm his coach, 637 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: I want to see him get a little burned, you know. 638 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: I think, uh Dominic Campton, I think Tyler Owen should 639 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: play a lot. I don't think they'll play the whole game. 640 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: I think if there's a rotation, maybe play the first half. 641 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: Get them out. Kolson Yankov is a guy that I am. 642 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: I want to see him play more tight end. He's 643 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: done a great job on teams, being an absolute lunatic 644 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: covering kicks. He's a good athlete. I want to see 645 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: him get how he operates on a dompdown basis, because like, 646 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: I really believe that he could put Cole for that 647 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: fourth spot, you know, in the yes and so you know, 648 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: Cole probably played quite a bit. But if Coleson and 649 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: him are split in time, like who comes out of 650 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: this looking a little bit better? And who do you 651 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: feel like you can't pass on? You know? In terms 652 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: of signing the team, Norhal Pollards will play a lot 653 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: the defensive tackle because he's played a lot in every 654 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: single game. I think he's done a good job. But 655 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: I want to see him rush the passer. Like that's 656 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: why I think he's here, and he hasn't really shown 657 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: that yet and he's it's TRD. It's hard because he's 658 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,479 Speaker 1: playing seventy snaps, so that's a tough deal for him. Uh. 659 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: Any other I mean, Luke McCaffrey, I think he'll play 660 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: as much as Dominic Campton will play, but has shown enough. 661 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: But I think because he's a rookie wanted to play 662 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: a little bit more. Is anybody else that you feel like? 663 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 2: I want to see Jack Saint. 664 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: He had a nice game. 665 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 2: Yeah he's he's flashed every now and then, right, but 666 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 2: I want to see, like, I just want more targets 667 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 2: to come to his way, just to see how he does. 668 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: I think so and Wiley to the running back the nicest. 669 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: See him get a nice chunk of carries. 670 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 2: Fred says this all the time. It's not unique, but 671 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, So, I don't know why I'm crediting 672 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 2: Fred with it. But it's a good teams cut good players, right, 673 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 2: So going into this last game, this is a good team. 674 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 2: I think that Peters and Quinna put together. They brought 675 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 2: in a lot of good vets. They kept around a 676 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 2: lot of good players from the previous regime here, and 677 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,719 Speaker 2: they drafted really well. So there are guys that are 678 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 2: rookies that are fighting really hard to make this team. 679 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 2: And there are a lot of good rookies fighting to 680 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 2: make this team. So I'm excited to see who's going 681 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 2: to step up to that challenge, right, Who's gonna see 682 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 2: their dream and want to go and take it? 683 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: Right? I love how you said that, because that's really 684 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: what this game is. You know. It's just it's it 685 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: makes me a little emotional thinking about it. But it's 686 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: the last time some of these guys ever played football ever. 687 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: And yeah, you want to go out on your terms, 688 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: So go take advantage of this opportunity. Put your stamp 689 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: on the game and say I deserve, if not on 690 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: the fifty three, I deserve to be on the practice squad. 691 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 2: Or another team. I put good film out there. 692 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent, So I have a I know 693 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people don't kind of poop poo with 694 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: the third preseason game. I love it because it's just 695 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: dudes playing ball, you know, and they're getting out there 696 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: and it's it's a basic install You're going to run 697 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: duo twenty five thousand times in this game. You're going 698 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: to drop a whole bunch of screen passes, but it's 699 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: like you're playing ball. 700 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 2: There could be a lot of listeners that relate to this. 701 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 2: I don't know if you will, but uh, you know 702 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 2: when you play pick up football when you're in college 703 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 2: or something, and you're all animals, so you're playing tackle 704 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 2: football and no pads, so you're all kind of careful 705 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: about it. None of you are super athletic. But there's 706 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 2: this one guy who is like pretty good in high 707 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 2: school and he's just a maniac and you are kind 708 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 2: of afraid to play with him because he's going to 709 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 2: hit too hard. He's going to go too hard, and 710 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: someone like you're just that guy. Everybody knows that guy 711 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 2: and pick up football this game, everybody is that guy. 712 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: Right. 713 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 2: It's just a bunch of that guys, And that's what 714 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 2: it's going to feel like. And I'm excited for you. 715 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 2: I could have been that guy.
