Speaker 1: All Right, you all ready for min let's go right

59
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: with I got three. Okay, mind's a little bit of

60
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: a sentence, all right, Defensive issues addressed? Okay, mind's a

61
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 1: little bit more simple. Okay. But to me, this was

62
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: a draft where the Falcons came in and said, we've

63
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: got some things we got to get taken care of

64
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: on that side of the ball. And I thought they

65
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: took care of them as we stand here right now,

66
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: right Obviously this stuff has to play out on the field.

67
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 1: But I feel like defensive issues addressed in the draft. Okay,

68
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: I think I know you said unforgettable significant? What is

69
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: your happiness your content level of this Falcons draft?

70
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: It under fifteen?

71
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 5: I mean we all sat here and if my memory

72
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 5: serves me correct, when we talked about who was gonna

73
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 5: take I said Jaylen Woker.

74
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: Then I changed my.

75
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: Mind because it sounded like Bernie from The King's Counting

76
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: the Start preach, Yeah.

77
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 2: That's what happened. When we got Jimmy Walker in the crowd,

78
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 2: the fan said, hey, man, so yeah nah.

79
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 5: But seriously, though, going at fifteen, I don't think anybody

80
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 5: probably in this building thought Jalen Walker would be there.

81
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 2: And you couple that with him being a guy that

82
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 2: played at University of Georgia.

83
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 5: We've everybody talked about that for years and you finally

84
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 5: get that guy and he started to fall to you

85
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 5: there and you saw Mike cal Williams, another guy everybody

86
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 5: was looking at fall at eleven to the forty nine,

87
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 5: and you're like, oh man, there's a chance, there's a possibility.

88
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 5: And then when it happened, I thought that was kind

89
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 5: of significant that, for one, you get a guy of

90
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 5: his caliber at that point, You get a guy who

91
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 5: you know has that pedigree and has played a bunch

92
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 5: of good football over his career.

93
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: And obviously, if you.

94
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 5: Guys get a chance to talk to him, I know

95
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 5: you probably talked to him already, but he is one

96
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 5: of the best individuals you will meet, let alone one

97
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 5: of the top football players coming out in this draft.

98
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 5: So it was significant in the point that you were

99
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 5: able to get him, and then you turn around and

100
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 5: get another guy, dude that I felt the Falcons really

101
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 5: wanted as well, because obviously if you go back into

102
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 5: the first round.

103
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 2: To get it, baby, he got a one team.

104
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 5: Right, And I know that's a lot of the conversations.

105
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 5: He was the guy and if you you know, watching

106
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 5: the Falcons doing the draft, you see him whole together

107
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 5: talking right there at fifteen.

108
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 2: That takes them probably.

109
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 5: I talked to Jaling about it and he was like, man,

110
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 5: I was sitting there and it looked up and said

111
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 5: five minutes and nothing happened, And he was like, it

112
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 5: was three minutes, and it was two minutes. Then he

113
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 5: finally got the call. So that tells you they were

114
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 5: going back and forth because they really were strong on

115
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 5: our man, James Spears Junior. So it's it's significant in

116
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 5: the point that you got two dudes in this draft

117
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 5: who people were really highly on when it comes to

118
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 5: Edge Rusher's and you were able to get both of

119
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 5: those guys in the first round. Uh, it's pretty cool.

120
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Arch you were down at the Benz right, and

121
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: so you're both of us. You guys are both down there.

122
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 1: You as you and I were talking before the show

123
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: as these picks started to unfold, kind of talk to

124
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: us about what your thoughts were when you were getting

125
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: to ten, twelve, fourteen, What was going through your mind?

126
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, well, in shock was right across the

127
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: field for me doing TV, so I'm sure you were

128
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: living this too. But I'm looking at I'm looking. Okay,

129
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: Jacksonville goes receiver or Cleveland or you know, they made

130
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 3: the trade, so Cleveland is going what defensive line or

131
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 3: whatever it was, receiver? I guess, Vegas goes running back,

132
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 3: Jet's gone offensive line, Carolina goes receiver. I'm going what

133
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 3: you know, because that's where he was. Kind of all

134
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 3: of a sudden, New Orleans goes offensive line. I said, man,

135
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 3: they're shoving both Georgia guys back towards Atlanta. I'm talking

136
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 3: about mikeel Williams and Jalen Walker. So yeah, the excitement

137
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 3: level began to rise for me as a fan. So

138
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 3: you knew Niners were going defense. It just was a

139
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 3: matter Okay, they lost green Law the linebacker.

140
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: Are you thinking, oh, are.

141
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 3: They going second level? Are they going to go edge

142
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 3: go Michael Williams, Well, you knew Dallas wasn't going there,

143
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 3: and Miami they took a d Lineman. I like that

144
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: was a good pick for them. You knew Indianapolis was

145
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 3: going tight end that way. That had been talked about for.

146
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: Like a month.

147
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 3: You're thinking, Oh, he's gonna fall right in your lap.

148
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 3: And then I got nervous, like shock did I'm looking

149
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 3: at the clock and I'm going.

150
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: What do we wait?

151
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 3: As soon as it clicked to throwing the clock, pick

152
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 3: is in. But obviously there was some jockey and going on.

153
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 3: There was you know, Atlanta maybe talking to people around them,

154
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 3: could they slide back, maybe get a pick. There was

155
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 3: a conversation about, you know, was because they had had

156
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 3: conversations with James Pearce, James Pearce Junior and his mom

157
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: the day before and they talked about how he was

158
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: their guy, you know, and was was fifteen too rich

159
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 3: for that pick and they didn't feel that way. Were

160
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 3: they're going to still be able to get him a

161
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: lot of conversation there, But the adrenaline started following to me,

162
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 3: hair stood up on the back of my neck. But

163
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 3: there were people standing around our broadcast area much like yours.

164
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 3: And you and I have been down there a number

165
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 3: of years now. This is probably we've been doing the

166
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 3: draft show for the radio and shot down there for TV.

167
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: We've been doing it for eight or ten years now

168
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 3: from the building, and I mean there's been mixed reactions

169
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: to different people we've taken over the years. I have

170
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: never heard a reaction like there was about eight thousand

171
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 3: people in the building probably somewhere in everyone when you

172
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 3: say shock locked in for sure. When we when they

173
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 3: said Jalen Walker, the place exploded, it was like a halt,

174
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 3: like the team taking the field is what it sounded like.

175
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 3: Guys are running and high fiving, People were falling down

176
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 3: on the field.

177
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: Tackling each other and stuff like that.

178
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 3: It was there was a joy that overcame the bulk

179
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 3: of the fan base there like I've never seen before.

180
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: It was really cool to be there for that.

181
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 5: Right before you go into yours, I want to ask

182
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 5: urs to kind of explain to people, because you went

183
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 5: to something really interesting.

184
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 2: I don't think people realize is.

185
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, the Falcons are sitting there talking about who should

186
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 5: they take, you know, how they should go about it,

187
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 5: and it's not all just Okay, do you want this guy?

188
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: This guy?

189
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 5: You have to talk to other teams to make sure

190
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 5: that Okay, yeah, we want this guy, but also how

191
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 5: do we get back in to get this guy? So

192
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 5: you've got to have that trade partner as well. That

193
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 5: was part of the conversation too, right, if that team

194
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 5: was going to do the right thing and mayby come

195
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 5: back and help them get back in.

196
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 2: The first round.

197
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 3: I think certainly Shack and Rack they were discussing, Okay,

198
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 3: James Pierce was the guy they had Junior had had

199
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 3: kind of targeted, and whether that was going to be

200
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 3: able to move back or what you know, And they

201
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 3: were probably had conversations already in place that Atlanta might

202
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 3: not have was gonna stay at fifteen. Maybe they already

203
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 3: had a trade partner set up to where they were

204
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 3: going to move back to take James Pierce Junior, and

205
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 3: all of a sudden you look up and say, wait

206
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: a minute, we got to pump our brakes on the

207
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 3: trade because Jalen Walkers sitting here. So now how do

208
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 3: we still you know, potentially negotiate that. Now, maybe those

209
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 3: discussions happen after they took Walker, but it probably took

210
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 3: them a long time to talk to these other teams

211
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 3: and they potentially maybe had trades already in place to

212
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 3: move back, and all of a sudden, well, wait a minute, Gus,

213
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 3: we're gonna have to call We're gonna have to call

214
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 3: off the trade because we've got a guy we really

215
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 3: like right here at Jalen Walker. So yeah, a lot

216
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 3: of negotiation, a lot of lot going on there, but

217
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 3: really cool that they were ended up with those two

218
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 3: guys in the first round.

219
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: Think it's why they say, guys that you always have

220
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: you have to just take the draft on how it

221
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 1: comes to you. Because as you mentioned, like we're not

222
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: going to get into the details of this, but the

223
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: sdor Sanders situation that ended up taking a player out

224
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: of what most people thought was going to be a

225
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: selection before Atlanta, okay. And then you mentioned the receiver

226
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: tedor Rod McMillan. I think everybody thought he was going

227
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: to be a first round I didn't think they were.

228
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: I don't think people thought he was going to be eight. Okay.

229
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: And so that's potentially another player that came off the

230
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: board earlier than maybe the Falcons, different draft experts, whoever

231
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 1: you want to call it. Anticipated now, I had called

232
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: for a trade back to try to get Michael Williams,

233
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: but I said, the chances of it happening are slim,

234
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: just because I've seen him walk anywhere from eight to

235
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: twenty eight, and of course he ends up going what

236
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: eleven to San Francisco. However, I did say on the

237
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: pregame show, I said, if Jalen Walker is sitting there

238
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: at fifteen, you run not walt the body to put

239
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: that to that card in. And to your point, there

240
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: was some discussion. So obviously they were potentially fielding different

241
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: trade offers, because I think on the television copy it

242
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: came pick as in at one minute left or somewhere

243
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: around there, right.

244
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 3: I think it was less than that. I think it

245
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 3: was inside thirty seconds.

246
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: Right, And so you're kind of sitting there thinking like

247
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Like, what's taken so long? Jalen

248
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: Walker's available? But to me, there had to have been

249
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: multiple conversations going on on whether or not there was

250
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: a trade suitor for them to move back or move

251
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: up whatever it ends up being. There was there was

252
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: some stuff going on there.

253
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I certainly think that the conversation wasn't necessary in

254
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 3: my opinion. I don't know, did not talk to anybody

255
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: with the falcon brass here, but my opinion, the conversation

256
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 3: was ongoing as you were closing in on fifteen, and

257
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 3: he began obviously started looking out of the corner your eye. Wait,

258
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 3: Jaalen Walker still.

259
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 1: On the board.

260
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 3: But Terry and everybody in the draft room are setting

261
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 3: the table for them to move back potentially to take

262
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 3: James Pierce Junior, if that's who they wanted. And then

263
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 3: all of a sudden they look up and they say,

264
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 3: wait a minute, this guy's still in the room. This

265
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 3: guy's still standing there. And so they had to make

266
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 3: it to me. They had to make some phone calls

267
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,959
Speaker 3: and pump the brakes on. Maybe a couple of teams

268
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 3: that were looking to trade to fifteen said wait a minute,

269
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 3: our guy is still sitting there, you know, and so

270
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 3: we're going to have to maybe hold off on whatever

271
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 3: we put together, you know, for the last fifteen to

272
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 3: twenty minutes thirty minutes of the draft leading up to

273
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 3: our fifteenth pick.

274
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: So we've kind of talked a little bit more like

275
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: thirty thousand foot level about both these guys. I want

276
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: to dive into them a little bit more individually, because Shak,

277
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: you're very close to the program. You're there each and

278
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,959
Speaker 1: every game. You get a chance to not only see

279
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: Jalen Walker play on the field, you get a chance

280
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: to talk to the head coach, the position coaches about him.

281
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: Arguably got a chance to talk to him on some

282
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: or multiple occasions. So why don't you give us your

283
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: breakdown of what Atlanta gets in Jalen Walker and what

284
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: you know about the young man that maybe the average

285
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: fan doesn't know about him.

286
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 5: I think you get one of the most complete players

287
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 5: and individuals probably that you'll ever meet. I remember talking

288
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 5: to a bunch of different scouts here and with other

289
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 5: teams at the pro day, and a couple of them mentioned,

290
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 5: this is the kind of guy that you want to

291
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 5: bring home to your daughter, and that speaks volumes for

292
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 5: the type of person and player he is. That that's

293
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 5: the kind of individual that you want in your building.

294
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 5: And another thing is the guy was such a leader

295
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 5: at the University of Georgia, and usually when you think

296
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 5: about leaders, you think about the guys who will maybe

297
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 5: little skilled position guys or guys who maybe a quarterback

298
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 5: or something like that. When he spoke, everybody listen including

299
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 5: the quarterback. There were times where talked to coach Smart

300
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 5: and he would say, I can't get to the guys

301
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 5: right now, Jalen, I need you to go get the

302
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 5: guys in order. Those were kind of things that you

303
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 5: saw with him, particularly when you talk about stuff in

304
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 5: the locker room, stuff you talk about outside the field

305
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 5: and getting his guys together, but you talk about the

306
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 5: things that they asked him to do. First off, when

307
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 5: you think about a guy who's versatile, a guy who's versatile.

308
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 2: Means he has to be intelligence.

309
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 5: The guy has to be smart because in this Curby

310
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 5: Smart defense with Glenn Schuman, the defense coordinator, I've sat

311
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 5: there and listened to the multitude of things that they

312
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 5: go through in a game plan, what they talk about

313
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 5: with an opposing offense, and there's so much going on,

314
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 5: and this guy is asked to play three, four or

315
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 5: five positions within that defense, with the calls, with the checks,

316
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 5: with everything that happens, and then it happens within two

317
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 5: or three seconds of a snap. And this guy, Jaylen Walker,

318
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 5: was asked to do that all year long, and this

319
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 5: guy brought it every single week.

320
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 2: I remember.

321
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 5: Obviously, Georgia has some games season where they were down,

322
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 5: they were not playing their best football. And this was

323
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 5: one guy who I saw on the sideline was continuously

324
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 5: walking up and down on the offense and the defensive side,

325
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 5: trying to get guys going. And this is a guy

326
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 5: who hardly ever came out to played special teams and everything.

327
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 5: He's one of those guys that you see come off

328
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 5: and they put the big old three ex jersey on

329
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 5: him when he got there run on special team and

330
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 5: you got to take it off and run right back

331
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 5: on the field. This guy was willing to give anything

332
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 5: for his team, and I think it's a reason why

333
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 5: he was one of the proven leaders of that team

334
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 5: and why he's been on that for the last couple

335
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 5: of years, and why a lot of people felt the

336
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 5: way they did about him coming out. And I think

337
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 5: I talked to one of the higher brass here who said,

338
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 5: you know, we talked to him at the combine, and

339
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 5: they were blown away by just the conversation, by the

340
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 5: way he held himself, by the way he walked into

341
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 5: the room and shook every single person's had in the room,

342
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 5: and then the way he eloqually talked about things that

343
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 5: were going on in their defense.

344
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: And then just talked about life. So that tells you this.

345
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 5: Is a guy that you got to worry about things

346
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 5: going on off the field. This is a guy that

347
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 5: absolutely is going to be one of those star wars

348
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 5: of your defense for a long time.

349
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: And when you get a.

350
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 5: Chance to meet him out in public in the community,

351
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 5: you understand exactly what I'm saying of who the guy is.

352
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's incredible to.

353
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: Shock.

354
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: Made a ton of great points about the kid. I

355
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 3: think first of all, how he fits in your locker

356
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 3: room and immediately becomes one of those guys that everybody

357
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: wants to be around. He's got one of that. He

358
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 3: feels like he's got that magnetism that pulls you want

359
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 3: to be next to Jalen Walker. You want to hear

360
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 3: what he has to say. So leadership and aid ability

361
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 3: for a young man to come in with. But we

362
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 3: talked about there were thirteen players Georgia players drafted in

363
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 3: this draft right, and another four or five guys went

364
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 3: in free agents were free agents. They're schooled so well

365
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 3: at george especially on the defensive side of the football

366
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 3: to play.

367
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: We talked about.

368
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 3: Before we came on about hard Georgia practices are. It's

369
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 3: harder than the games. They're excited to get in the

370
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 3: games because it's easier than what Kirby's putting them through

371
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 3: in practice. So they're so well schooled. He had three

372
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 3: Georgia players come off the board in the first round, Okay,

373
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 3: in three different levels. That tells you they're not good

374
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 3: at just the defensive line. They're good at linebacker, they're

375
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: good in the back end. But when you talk about

376
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 3: Jayalen Walker, I thought the point you made right there

377
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 3: at the end. He played all the special teams last year.

378
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't.

379
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: Just play on defense and making plays off the edge

380
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: and the linebacker and walking out in the slot and

381
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 3: playing slot corner or whatever. He played all the special

382
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 3: teams on all the coverage units. I mean, that tells

383
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 3: you all you want to know about the guy. The

384
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 3: dude is off the charts. It was a great, great

385
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 3: coup for us to end up with him at fifteen.

386
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: I wrote down three things, partly from what you said

387
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: and others some observations that I had. Number one, I

388
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: feel like he's kind of one of those alpha dogs,

389
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: right what you guys were talking about, like people magnetism,

390
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: People want to be next to him, People are interested

391
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: in what they have to do, what he has to say,

392
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: and they respond to what he has to say. That's

393
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: a huge thing, not only playing in the NFL, playing

394
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,199
Speaker 1: defense and playing the linebacker position, because most people are

395
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 1: turning around looking at the linebackers, saying, get us set

396
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: up in the right spot? What are we doing? How

397
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: do we need to make a play right somebody to

398
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: get everybody else going. I made this comment on the

399
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: We did a post draft podcast late after the draft

400
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: off the first round, and I said, obviously, Travis Hunter

401
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: is probably the most versatile player in the draft right

402
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: He's going to play offense and defense. But Atlanta might

403
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: have got the second most versatile player because of what

404
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: he can do for them, because of his ability to

405
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: rush off the edge, because of his ability to cover

406
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: people out in space, because of his ability to get

407
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: back behind the defensive line to fill an A gap,

408
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: to fill a B gap, to blitz through. There's not

409
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: too many guys that you feel comfortable can do all

410
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 1: that and then shoulder the load mentally of all that

411
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: stuff that goes along with playing like that. The last

412
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: thing that you said. I picked this up DJ the

413
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: most from his press conference after he was flown in

414
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 1: and you mentioned the word eloquent. I was surprised at

415
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 1: how well spoken the young man was. He sits down

416
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 1: in a press conference. It's just him up there. You

417
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: never know how this is going to go. No offense.

418
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: But some NFL players are not great interviews, if you

419
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: guys know.

420
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 2: What I mean.

421
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: But this guy got up there and he just owned

422
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: the situation right, super comfortable, could hear everything he had

423
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: to say, excited, looking forward to the opportunity. So these are.

424
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 2: Many people in that room, right.

425
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: I don't know because I didn't see that, but I

426
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: think we would all agree that as it stands right now,

427
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: you call it on paper, call it what you've seen

428
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: on film. And Georgia Atlanta got themselves a star in

429
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: Jalen Walker. Let's pivan talk a little bit about James

430
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: Pierce Junior, because this is the one that kind of

431
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: maybe threw everybody for a little bit of a curve ball,

432
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: not not only maybe us, but also in the NFL.

433
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: Is Atlanta ends up trading back into the first round,

434
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: ends up trading away their first round pick last year.

435
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,919
Speaker 1: They do get a third round pick in exchange for

436
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: this move, but they go back in and they continue

437
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: to address pass rush and Arch I'm going to start

438
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: with you this time by trading back to get James

439
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: Pierce Junior in the first round, who many believed was

440
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: maybe one of the most athletically gifted pass rushers in

441
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: this class. Once again, you're Donn a Merceites been stadium

442
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: and you hear trade Atlanta is on the clock. Your

443
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: knee jerk reaction was what you got to be kidnming.

444
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 3: We froze and started looking at the camera, you know, looking,

445
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 3: what do we because we knew we didn't amy draft capital,

446
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 3: and so you think, okay, it's got to be something

447
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:32,239
Speaker 3: from next year. Now, Yeah, steep price to pay that

448
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 3: number one pick. But if Atlanta is going the direction

449
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 3: they feel like they're going and this, that pick is

450
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 3: going to be at the back end of the first round.

451
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 3: Not to dispel, yeah, not to dispel what a first

452
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 3: round draft pick means, because look here we're getting James

453
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: Pearce at twenty six, so you can obviously get really

454
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 3: good players at the back end. But I thought that

455
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 3: it just showed the aggressiveness. That's who Terry is, That's

456
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 3: who this Falcon organization is. They see a guy they

457
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 3: spend a time a time. In fact, they spent more

458
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 3: time with James Pearce Junior than they did with Jalen Walker. Now,

459
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 3: they went over and saw Georgia and talked to Jalen

460
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 3: and you guys, all the things you said about Jalen Walker,

461
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 3: obviously he just he bleeds them out, you know, the

462
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 3: leadership and all the things. But they wanted to spend

463
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 3: time with James Peers because there was some questions. Okay,

464
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 3: does he go hard all the time? Does he do

465
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 3: this that or the other? There was some questions, and

466
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 3: so they went and sat down with him and his mom,

467
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 3: and they visited with him up until right the day

468
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 3: before the draft, right shock. And they spent a lot

469
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 3: of time feeling comfortable about the fact that this was

470
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 3: probably going to be their first round pick. And it

471
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 3: might have been like you suggested, wasn't Mikel Williams. They

472
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 3: traded back for They traded back to get him. I

473
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 3: think that was what was in the play here. But

474
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: then they said, wait a minute, we got to go

475
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 3: get that was our guy to begin with. We got

476
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 3: to go get him. They so, yeah, again, I thought

477
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 3: you got to be kidding. You doubled down you just

478
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 3: went and, like you said, addressed defensive issues. That's exactly

479
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 3: what they did. And think about Jeff Olbrick. Will McDonald

480
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 3: was drafted at Iowa State two years ago, almost the

481
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 3: exact same size, six', four about two Forty Actually pierce

482
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 3: is a little bit. Bigger think About Leonard, floyd almost

483
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 3: the same, guy his slim come off the, edge and

484
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 3: All floyd's done is have forty eight and a half

485
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 3: sacks in his last five, seasons include eight and a

486
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 3: half last. Year they thought that this guy's built very

487
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 3: similar to, that a very similar type. Player so you're

488
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 3: talking about two body, types one That raheem had worked

489
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 3: with IN la one That olbrick had worked with In New,

490
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: york and both were. EXPLOSIVE i think will McDonald what

491
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 3: ten sacks this year for The. Jets this is this

492
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,199
Speaker 3: is a dude very Similar and so they get a

493
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 3: guy that now is going to be able to watch

494
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 3: one of the one of the really good pass rushers

495
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 3: in the league over the last five seasons In Leonard,

496
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 3: floyd and kind of tutor under. Him and also maybe

497
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 3: all of a sudden you look up and one's on

498
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 3: one side and one's on the other. Side and, oh

499
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 3: by the, Way Jalen walker And Kaden ellis are stacked

500
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 3: in behind block. SOMEBODY i mean they're, coming you. Know so,

501
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 3: YEAH i think the EXCITEMENT i can get chills a

502
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 3: little bit thinking about what these two guys could. Be

503
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,239
Speaker 3: But James Pierce junior in, particular we need to give

504
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 3: him his. Kudos this guy was a really good player

505
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 3: seventeen and a half sacks after over his last two

506
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 3: seasons seven and a half a year ago ran four four.

507
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 3: Seven you talk about a guy that can get around

508
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 3: the edge shock you saw it in. Person you talk

509
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 3: about being able to close and all this conversation about

510
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 3: him being too thin in the hips and all that

511
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 3: kind of. STUFF i thrown tape on where he can

512

Speaker 3: defend the edge as. Well he's got long, arms can

513
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 3: keep himself leveraged to the outside and defend the edge.

Speaker 1: does he bring depth wise to this. Offensive, line yeah.

779
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 3: He, brings experience fifty. Career starts he's talked about. It

780
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 3: rack he started thirteen games at, right guard thirty thirty

781
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 3: seven games at. Left tackle that tells you has the

782
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 3: versatility played right side and the interior played. Left side

783
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 3: and we know that that really difficult position to play at. Left,

784
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 3: tackle rush you know guys rushing off. The edge by,

785
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 3: the way he faced some pretty good competition In The

786
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 3: big ten coming off. The edge so you love the

787
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 3: tools that he comes to the. Table with he's a

788
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 3: big dude that looks like he can transition inside. Or

789
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 3: outside the conversation about him is. Really good in the zone,

790
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 3: blocking scheme does an outstanding get job of getting lateral

791
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 3: and up to the. Second level maybe challenged a bit

792
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 3: from time to time from a pass. Protection standpoint that's

793
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 3: why it made me make sense to move him inside

794
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 3: and play in that guard position where he can potentially

795
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 3: be detected on one side or. The other but it's

796
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 3: a big body dude that has a tremendous amount of

797
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 3: playtime experience that comes in we've seen that kind of

798
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 3: transition to. Other positions think about some of these quarterbacks

799
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 3: that are coming in that have played more, college football

800
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 3: that are Adapting the brock perties and some of those

801
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 3: people of. The world they certainly would apply to an

802
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 3: offensive lineman.

803
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 2: As WELL, in.

804
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: Dj he's got two pretty good veteran tackles that he

805
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: can learn from if. HE does, I mean I just

806
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: i see six seven three TWENTY and i see that's

807
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: a tackle IN. The, nfl right you could, play, card

808
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,760
Speaker 1: yes but, to me those are measurables to get ready

809
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 1: to play one of the. Tackle positions but he again

810
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: hope health wise that he doesn't have to start. This

811
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: year so he's got two veterans that he can learn

812
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 1: from for maybe call it a season if, you will

813
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 1: to try to get up to speed watch TAPE how

814
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 1: nfl pass rushers try to attack tackles IN the nfl

815
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,280
Speaker 1: and how do you. Combat that so he's another tool

816
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: in the toolbox to bring some depth to.

817
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 5: This offense which is a great point because you talk

818

00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,239

920
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,160

921
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 3: All american You, mentioned watts Consensus. Al america the only

922
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 3: Other Guy. Travis hunter so you're talking about two guys

923
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 3: they're gonna come in. AND compete i. Almost wonder i'm gonna, ask,

924
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 3: you guys, twenty sixteen we had four rookies start on.

925
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 3: The defense they went To The, Super, bowl okay.

926
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 2: And it was.

927
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 3: A defense it was a mixed bag here, and there

928
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 3: but four rookies contributed. On that you could make an

929
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 3: argument that you got four guys that could come in

930
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 3: and potentially start on. This defense that's pretty damn good if.

931
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 1: You, Ask Yeah and i'm, not sure, like man maybe

932
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: they don't even, all START but i think all of
