7
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,080

8
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: will be back next week, same time, same format, ten

9
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,599
Speaker 2: to one Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday for many camp week when

10
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 2: things get mandatory around these parts. But we've got another

11
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 2: hour of our OTA's coverage here is still plenty to

12
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 2: get to.

13
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 3: Matt.

14
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 2: One thing that I wanted to bring out here as

15
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 2: well too that we touched on a little bit in

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 2: this week, but wanted to finish the conversation how the

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: Steelers now apparently will be in the market for a

18
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,279
Speaker 2: tight end once again. I know, you know there's been

19
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 2: the John Newson some degree at conversations, but that doesn't

20
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 2: even it doesn't have to be something to that level,

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 2: just in terms of needing to add another body now

22
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 2: with the injury of Darnold Parnham junior, that can mean

23
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: a lot of different things and a lot of different

24
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 2: ways of acquiring them.

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 4: Are there any free agents? Is there anybody out there?

26
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 5: Now?

27
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 3: Okay, there almost always is. I mean, someone that's going

28
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 3: to be on an NFL roster. That's not a hard

29
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 3: position to find. A lifetime special team or blocker number

30
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: three tight end, Now Johnny Smith, isn't that? I mean,

31
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: obviously Kyle Pitts has been a rumored to be on

32
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: the trade blocks as well. That's obviously not who he

33
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 3: is either. But one observation I've kind of made since

34
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 3: we talked about that yesterday. So Arthur Smith's been the

35
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 3: offense coordinator for two years, so he's had two tight

36
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 3: end rooms, and we know tight ends are very important

37
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: in his system comparatively speaking to thirty one other coordinators,

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 3: and in both instances, even though there's been some different people,

39
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: none of the four tight ends, including Parham, including Michael Prewitt,

40
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: look like anyone else in the room, you know what

41
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 3: I mean? Like that, I think that can't be an accident.

42
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: You know, Like obviously Hayward and Washington don't even look

43
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 3: like they play the same position or played the same sport,

44
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 3: you know, but like all of them have had clearly

45
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: different skill sets than the other three. Is that desired

46
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: or even param and Preuit aren't the same, but Parham

47
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 3: was an outlier six' eight strange.

48
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 4: Place power forward and right right?

49
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: Right do they want four different types or does it

50
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 3: just worked out that way in two years and into

51
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: your sample? Size you know WHAT i? Mean, Like i'm

52
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: not sure exactly what they're looking for for that third,

53
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 3: guy BUT i think we know they're going to keep. Four, oh,

54
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 3: absolutely and they're.

55
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: Short, Absolutely and you Know kinger that that feels like

56
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 2: one of those things that you, know philosophically from The

57
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: Arthur smith's standpoint of the heavy twelve, personnel the heavy thirteen.

58
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 2: PERSONNEL i, mean they're they're they're going to have to

59
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 2: add a body and bring somebody else in there that

60
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: you know they, can least hope give them what they

61
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 2: were hoping from From Donald Farnum.

62
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 4: Jr or. Not probably.

63
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 5: You, Know i'm not Gonna i'm not discounting what you

64
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 5: guys are saying This THIS Dj Thomas.

65
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 3: Jones you brought him up a few. Times, yeah he

66
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 3: Little birdi's telling you something about.

67
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 5: It, No, no absolutely not other than it's the largest

68
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 5: contract that they've that they've ever given to a non

69
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 5: quarterback free.

70
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 3: Agent that means a. Lot Like Beanie bishop was their

71
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: top guy last year with the intentions of making the.

72
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 3: Team castro got a pretty good jump.

73
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 5: You he's a guy THAT i, mean of the non roster,

74
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 5: guys the two guys that interest me, MOST i think

75
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 5: Are Sebastian castro AND Dj Thomas.

76
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 3: Jones so they're like an extra draft. Pick.

77
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 5: Yeah so if you have A Dj Thomas jones who

78
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 5: now can play full back for you and can help

79
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 5: you on special. Teams we know how much they Like Connor.

80
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 5: Hayward is he an in line blocking tight? End, no

81
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 5: could you get a guy like, that maybe in stash

82
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 5: him on YOUR, u on your you, know your practice,

83
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 5: squad maybe a guy you could call up like A

84
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 5: Rodney williams or somebody like.

85
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: That.

86
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 5: PERHAPS i just think, that you, know you, know the

87
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 5: fact that they gave him that, money and the fact

88
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 5: THAT i want to see him in, camp and whether

89
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 5: they're gonna line him up at. FULLBACK i, mean they've

90
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 5: got him listed as a running, back you, Know so

91
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 5: he does interest, me AND i think that if he shows,

92
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 5: SOMETHING i could see them just going with two tight

93
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 5: ends and a.

94
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 4: Fullback at an h.

95
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 5: BACK i could see that and having one or two

96
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 5: options perhaps on your practice. Squad Now i'm not saying

97
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 5: that's the likely, outcome.

98
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 3: Yeah i'm just saying it's a.

99
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 4: POSSIBILITY i could see.

100
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 3: That it's a passible.

101
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,400

327
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 2: there AND i tell you What Matt he's in an

328
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 2: intriguing position OF i, think And i'm not blaming people for,

329
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: this it's, natural but with him missing almost the entirety

330
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 2: of his rookie, season and it's not like he was

331
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 2: a first or second round.

332
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 3: Draft pick at the, sight out of, mind you, know the.

333
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: Out side out of mind thing has happened a little

334
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 2: bit with. HIM i think, again just to the casual,

335
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 2: fan WHEREAS i think down, here there's some expectation that watch,

336
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 2: out we think we've got a player in this.

337
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 3: Guy, yeah and first, OFF i think the d line

338
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 3: room is really intriguing because, yes they used the first

339
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 3: round pick there and you hope that he turns Into Cam,

340
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: hayward which would be. Unbelievable but then you also Added,

341
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 3: black his teammate From, iowa who is a massive human.

342
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 3: BEING i think he's the biggest dude on the, team

343
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 3: and you pretty much know what they want out of.

344
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 3: HIM i, mean he's going to be a, big middle

345
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 3: of the, field run stopping power. Player but they've also

346
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 3: added some names that aren't common to everybody. Else you,

347
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: know the smaller free agent, deals you know that are

348
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 3: all of a, sudden there's a lot of names in

349
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 3: that room where they usually keep six or, seven, right

350
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 3: there might be nine or ten that ARE nfl players

351
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 3: all all of a, sudden Including Logan lee in my my,

352
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 3: Opinion but we haven't seen.

353
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 4: That that's a nice that's a nice luxury to, have, Right,

354
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 4: SO i.

355
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 3: Mean he's gonna have to battle for a spot after

356
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 3: a year. Removed BUT i will, say and Again i'm

357
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 3: not divulging any. Secrets AND i get the hunch that

358
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 3: the folks that work inside this building are higher Than Logan.

359
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 3: Lee then maybe our listeners.

360
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 4: Realize, yes, yes that's the right way to put.

361
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 3: It, YEAH i think they're very optimistic about what he

362
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 3: could do as a. Contributor he's not the Next Cam.

363
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 3: Heyward you, know he's not the Stef on two at.

364
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 3: Replacement BUT i think he could be a very, valuable useful.

365
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 3: Player and that's a. Compliment, yeah, Right.

366
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 2: And you need those, Guys you need those, trenches, Right

367
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 2: you don't just need your couple top.

368
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 4: Dogs you need those.

369
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 3: Take ten snaps away From cama game or you, know

370
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 3: AND i know.

371
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 4: You're going to get at least A b level performance from.

372
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 2: Them there's the trust, factor there's the you, know the

373
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 2: just the nature of having confidence and depth Is, listen

374
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: you need it all over your, roster but particularly in the,

375
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 2: trenches particularly on your defensive, front where you're going to

376
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 2: be rotating guys to keep them. Fresh and you know

377
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 2: you mentioned that room like they've got A i think

378
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:14,400
Speaker 2: a nice plethora of different skill, sets body, types career.

379
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 2: EXPERIENCE i, mean obviously Cam, is we all know what

380
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 2: Cam is is far above everybody.

381
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 4: Else he's a future gold jacket.

382
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 2: Guy he is is a legend of the, organization all those,

383
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 2: things And ogunjobi is gone. NOW i, think you, Know

384
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: Keanu benton heading into year, three there's still some, unknown

385
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 2: but he is also a guy that we have seen

386
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 2: play at a high, level very, promising very, promising AND i

387
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 2: think and you're confident that he is going to uh

388
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 2: be a real.

389
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 4: Producer this. Year you Had Derek harmon in the first.

390
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 2: Round Uh you've still got guys Like Isaiah loudermilk at

391
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 2: De Marvin leao that are around two and le how

392
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 2: is an interesting.

393
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 4: One to.

394
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 3: ME i think HE'S i say this every year that

395
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 3: there's always four or five drafted players recently that kind

396
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 3: of come to a career crossroads pretty. Quick in this,

397
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 3: league AND i Think Lee owl's at that. POINT i,

398
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 3: MEAN i get the hunch he probably won't be doing

399
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 3: much stand up outside linebacker.

400
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 4: Stuff if you look at his body transformation here, AGAIN.

401
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 3: I think that's the thing in the, past WHICH i

402
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 3: think is probably for the, best and especially after The sawyer,

403
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 3: edition they have a big bodied edge, guy you, Know

404
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 3: AND i Think leel is more of an attacking inside.

405
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 3: Player but there's only so many. Spots AND i did

406
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 3: think he did good things before his injury last, year

407
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 3: AND i thought he had a really good camp and

408
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 3: the sime of the year it was. Impressive so we'll.

409
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 3: See but big, picture we Know cam's not going to

410
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 3: last year, forever but he's still a phenomenal. Player if

411
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 3: the one or ideally Both benton And harmon can, hit

412
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 3: can hit.

413
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: And be second contract, easy no, doubt second contract.

414
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: A high end starters Slash Pro bowl type. GUYS i

415
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,199
Speaker 3: don't think you're asking too much between the two of

416
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 3: them to get a lot of production in the next

417
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 3: five to ten. Years but a stat THAT i don't

418
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: have handy but is really frightening is their yards per carry.

419
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 3: Aloud When cam was on the field was like number

420
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 3: first it was like best in the league and worst

421
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 3: than the league when he was.

422
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 4: Off it was a stark.

423
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 3: Juxtaposition, yeah and he you don't want him to be

424
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,199
Speaker 3: on the field all the, time you. Know so a

425
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 3: lot of these new, bodies you, KNOW I butcher's name

426
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 3: the dude they signed from The, patriots and you, know

427
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 3: some of these, guys if they can just limit that

428
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 3: massive drop off where and everyone in the league knew,

429
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 3: it especially as the league goes. On and it's not

430
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 3: Like Cam heyward sneaking up on the raven run in the.

431
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 3: League it's Like cam's out, There, well we should probably throw.

432
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 3: It he's not out, There let's run the ball.

433
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 4: And let's go to some hurry up here and try

434
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 4: and keep him on the side.

435
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 3: Exactly and you don't want. It you want to snaps

436
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 3: the count to go, down correct and, yeah and so

437
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 3: there is and someday he won't be here exactly.

438
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 2: Right and so to, me it's you, know we had

439
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 2: the conversation about how this time last year maybe you

440
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 2: didn't feel as confident in the starting five offensive, lineman

441
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 2: but you really liked the.

442
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 3: Depth yeah, yeah, yeah whereas now it's her legs and

443
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 3: right right.

444
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 2: Now it's, flipped and now it's flipped a little, bit,

445
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 2: right whereas you feel good about the starting, five but

446
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 2: you're you're looking for some more to dem. RIGHT i

447
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 2: think now maybe it's a it's a similar it's a

448
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 2: similar conversation with the defensive line in the sense of

449
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 2: there is the, proof the guys that you feel confident

450
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 2: about at the, top but a lot of questions about

451
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 2: what is the what's the, delegation what's the pecking order

452
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 2: behind The Cam heyward And Keanu, benton, yeah And Derek harmon.

453
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 3: AND i thought a year, ago and this has happened

454
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 3: In omar's first camp, too whenever they traded Like green

455
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 3: the center and they traded dots in and some of

456
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 3: those guys THAT i thought they went in a year,

457
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 3: ago that they had one too MANY o, linemen which is,

458
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 3: wonderful that's exactly what's a Good NOW i wonder if

459
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 3: they're one too, short and maybe you even trade one

460
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 3: off for a six round pick In august or whatever

461
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 3: when because teams always.

462
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 4: Looking for the trade one for a depth, piece tight

463
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 4: end or something exactly.

464
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 3: Exactly and Now i'm looking at the d line saying

465
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 3: they might have to too MANY i mean THERE'S i

466
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 3: think there's probably nine names that are gonna BE nfl

467
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 3: players this, year you, Know and, unfortunately with last YEAR'S

468
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,440

00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 4: EITHER i tell you what.

511
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 2: It's it's it's it's intriguing in that regard for a

512
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 2: lot of. Reasons and then again, TOO i think just

513
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: the as much as you would have loved to have

514
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 2: had him last. Year just the added benefit of Getting

515
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 2: Troy faltanu And Logan lee along with what you, added you,

516
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 2: know to your offense and your defense in the draft

517
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 2: and free.

518
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 3: Agency been a lot of new big people in the

519
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 3: last year or.

520
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 2: Two they like they they go into camp every, year

521
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 2: one in competition. Everywhere, right of, course unless you've Got

522
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 2: Ben roethlisberger at, quarterback then you don't need competition a,

523
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 2: quarterback but you want competition. Everywhere but every year it

524
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 2: feels like there's a group that we highlight a little bit.

525
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 2: More is like you, said the offensive line was that

526
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 2: position group last.

527
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 3: Year there are some really, McCormick there was a fourth round, pack.

528
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: Right but they felt like even with you, Know Okay

529
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 2: fraser's waiting in the, wings what's going to happen with

530
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 2: the three tackles that we all think are capable.

531
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 3: Of starting in THE?

532
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 2: Nfl now it feels, like you, know kind of maybe same,

533
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 2: church different pew to use a mic pursuit a line

534
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 2: and that now on the d.

535
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 3: Line, yeah AND i talk about this all the, time

536
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 3: and it boggles my mind that there are some fans

537
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 3: listeners that don't quite understand this. Is this is a

538
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 3: long term slash short term plan to get back to

539
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 3: being hopefully the best team in the. League that's every team's,

540
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 3: goal of, course But i'm not saying you couldn't have

541
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 3: done it in the reverse. Order but they are creating

542
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 3: the nest for next year's, quarterback and it's started with offensive,

543
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 3: tackle offensive tackle. Center then you go to d, line

544
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 3: and if the line's in, place you can find receivers

545
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 3: and linebackers and safeties and running backs and things like.

546
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 3: THAT i don't want to trade up for a first

547
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 3: round quarterback and throw him in a situation where we

548
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 3: don't be, alignment no. Doubt you know WHAT i, mean no.

549
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 3: Doubt so you get that out of the way first

550
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 3: in drafts where you're not really in striking distance for the,

551
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 3: quarterback and then you think of this team rogers are

552
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 3: Not let's say it's exact same year as last year

553
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 3: and you win double digit. Games you get beat bad

554
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 3: in the first, round but then you're in striking distance

555
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 3: to get to the eighth.

556
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 4: Pick overall get hopefully You're Josh allen or your, passion and.

557
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 3: Right right DOWN i Get all or whoever it.

558
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 2: Is or you know you AND i were having this

559
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 2: conversation With kinger during one of our. Breaks there's a

560
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 2: lot of different. Scenarios but a lot of TIMES i

561
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 2: think that, fans the best way for us to improve

562
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 2: is to trade our best, players be, bad get more draft,

563
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 2: capital better draft, capital.

564
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 4: And you can lose the.

565
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 2: Lot sometimes it works out that you Draft Lebron james

566
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 2: or your Draft Sidney crosby and you're. Fine those sports are, different,

567
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 2: Though but a lot of, time even with, us as

568
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: much as we, know and and and The kinger's been

569
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 2: telling us all week how Great Paul skeins is across

570
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 2: the across the. Pond how much does that change it

571
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 2: on a baseball team where you need twenty some guys.

572
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 3: To every fifth, day you get. It you're really good.

573
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 4: More more more often than.

574
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 2: NOT i think it's the maintaining the having, success not

575
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: the ultimate, success and then striking when the time is

576
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 2: right to really get yourself over the, top as opposed

577
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 2: to let's bottom out completely and.

578
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 3: Restart and this wasn't the year to do it at.

579
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,479
Speaker 3: Quarterback next year very well could. Be the most Research

580
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 3: i've done is really, promising and even people have told

581
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 3: me the year away from that is even. Better who,

582
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 3: KNOWS i? Mean and you can't wait forever, though Because

583
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 3: Cam hayward's not gonna be and the nobody to be

584
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 3: a part where he's not here, anymore you, know, Foefeated

585
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 3: but the goal is to find your, ben you, KNOW i,

586
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 3: mean and how's our best path to do? That and in,

587
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 3: frankly in the meantime they've coupled it. Together they missed unpick.

588
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 3: It we know, that you. Know but you Put russ

589
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 3: And fields in, there and maybe one of those two

590
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 3: turns into, whoa you, know we got something here or,

591
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 3: Man rogers is a side. NOTE i did Some rogers'

592
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 3: homework in the last twenty four. Hours. Okay it was

593
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 3: more encouraging THAN i. Thought, OKAY I i really want

594
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 3: him to get. HERE i really want to be A.

595
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 3: STEELERS i don't don't care what he. Is but there

596
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 3: was some, glimpses especially after he got The Vante, adams

597
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 3: where it's, like, OH i remember.

598
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 4: Him oh there's the fourth TIME i remember that.

599
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 3: Guy, YEAH i, mean he's not that guy. Anymore but,

600
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 3: man it's like they could be dangerous with a receiver In.

601
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 3: Rogers and in the, meantime you're still in that quarterback

602
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 3: market for the big, term you know WHAT i. Mean

603
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,199
Speaker 3: i'm not saying they win The Super bowls, here BUT

604
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 3: i think their offense with a legit number two, receiver

605
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 3: whoever that, is AND i do think that will be

606
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 3: one of your draft picks will turn into that player

607
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 3: some Level Rob adobs whatever And. ROGERS i will promise

608
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 3: you the offense is better than last.

609
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 2: Year The chiefs went twelve and, four won the division

610
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 2: the year before they traded it moved up TO ta For.

611
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: Patrick everyone thinks you have to get to. One you

612
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 3: can't get the one.

613
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 2: Now mills were nine and, seven but they were a

614
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 2: wild card team and went to the playoffs and still

615
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 2: trade up twice To that's.

616
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 3: The environment you want to drop a quarterback.

617
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 2: Into that's the environment you, want not The Chicago bears,

618
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 2: Environment North Carolina panthers.

625
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 3: can't turn The browns from you, know take the worst, organization.

00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 3: Weren't they're not getting rid of number. One so it

636
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 3: needs to be a big draft like the last year

637
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 3: one where you can get to nine and get McCarthy

638

00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 3: you trade twenty the next year's first and something, else

646
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,480

647
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 3: quarterback or third quarterback off the, board you, know and

648
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,400

737
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 3: linderbaum is a little more money in the. BANK i

738
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 3: Think linderbaum is a great, player rare, quickness also a

739
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 3: phenomenal wrestling. Background iowa. Guy, coincidentally we would talk About

740
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 3: iowa guys here. LATELY i would IF i were to

741
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 3: do his center, RANKINGS i would Have linderbaum ahead of him.

742
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 3: Today but he's one of the only. FEW i, Mean

743
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 3: humphrey with The. Chiefs linderbaum retiring moves him up one

744
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 3: more spot.

745
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 2: To make it so you could make a very, easy

746
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 2: good faith argument that he's top five in the, league

747
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 2: and you what you would be doing The homer.

748
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 3: Thing, no to, me that's pretty, easy and maybe even

749
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 3: top three him Versus, barton the first round pick from

750
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 3: the same, class is an interesting. Conversation i've obviously seen

751
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 3: more Of, zach BUT i mean he's right at the top,

752
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 3: already which after one year is a heck of an.

753
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 2: Accomplishment, yeah AND i remember telling you guys, this you,

754
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 2: know leading up to that, draft we obviously had a

755
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 2: lot of conversation around him BECAUSE i knew The steelers

756
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 2: needed a center Views, yeah and you, know obviously with

757
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 2: my ties THE wu and enjoyed all of that and

758
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 2: a lot of conversation around. Him AND i remember telling

759
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 2: you guys at the combine before he was, DRAFTED i

760
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 2: don't know how great he can ultimately, be but his bust,

761
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 2: potential in my mind is next to, nothing like he's

762
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 2: going to be a, eight, nine, ten, eleven twelve year

763
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 2: pro who is going to play good football for SOME nfl.

764
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 4: Organization can he be an all? Pro? Absolutely.

765
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 2: Yeah BUT i didn't see any scenario where he would

766
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 2: wash out of the, league not be, good only have

767
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 2: a three four year career something like. That but even

768
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 2: for someone like, me who is A wu season ticket

769
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 2: holder and you, know absolute geek and watched him play

770
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 2: forty some times in, COLLEGE i didn't think he would

771
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 2: be this good this.

772
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 3: QUICK i. AGREE i, MEAN i loved the. PICK i

773
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 3: didn't see a big difference when they were coming out Between, Powers, Johnson,

774
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 3: barton And. Frasier they have different, styles BUT i mean

775
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 3: in terms of who's the best, Prospect Powers johnson was my,

776
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 3: three but we were splitting. Hairs they were all really

777
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,480

824
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 3: he has gotten, very very. POPULAR i just think that

825
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 3: there's such a ceiling because you got to Beat burrow,

826
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 3: twice you got to Beat lamar, twice AND i know

827
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 3: they never do, this BUT i would say six or seven. Wins,

828
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 3: YEAH i mean it's a tough.

829
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 2: SCHEDULE i would say that the twenty, two twenty three

830
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 2: twenty five consecutive years without a losing season would be a. Lot,

831
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,320
Speaker 2: yeah pre dates Even mike tom Like i'm talking Before

832
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 2: tomlin's time as, well, too would be in a lot of.

833
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,399
Speaker 2: JEOPARDY i wouldn't see them botting him out and winning

834
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 2: four or five.

835
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 3: Games, NOAH i don't think you get first fix the.

836
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 3: DRAFT i think they.

837
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 2: Went seven to ten or eight to. Nine it wouldn't

838
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 2: like eight to nine might be about my.

839
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 3: Prediction, yeah and then the thing that worries you too

840
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 3: is of, course and this goes from many. Positions but

841
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 3: If rogers is your starter and he misses a three

842
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 3: game stretch And mason comes, in, fine, okay. Great but

843
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 3: If rudolph's your starters three or thirteen game stretch and

844
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 3: you're asking a rookie six round pick to win games

874
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 2: the insanity quote Because i've always wondered that same. Thing

875
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 2: and then.

876
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 4: The literal, Definition i'm, going that's pretty.

877
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 3: Good it is pretty.

00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 2: Good, yeah and and he also Tweets wes bringing up

879
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 2: the quote about the worst things for.

880
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 4: Business.

881
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 2: Uh the other side of that is people that are

882
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 2: always clamoring for. Change it can be equally dangerous to

883
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 2: change the way we've always done things without any why

884
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 2: as we did it that.

885
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 3: Way.

886
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, Absolutely and THAT i think maybe gets back to

887
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 2: some of the the shiny silver object decisions that some

888
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 2: of the what we perceive is lesser organizations around.

889
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 3: The, Yeah, alan, OH i want that where where.

890
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 2: You will see The steelers do change things with a.

891
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 2: WIT i mean they made just two years ago an

892
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 2: in season coordinator change for the first time in.

893
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 4: Decades.

894
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah well know it was a couple of years,

895
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 3: ago but they didn't trade a first round pick for

896
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 3: a player the twit. R.

897
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 2: Yeah and so there are some organizations that don't move at.

898
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 2: All there are some organizations that, move but maybe they

899
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 2: kind of move like The, titanic it's a little slow and.

900
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 2: Turn and then there's some organizations that you, know were

901
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 2: like those three sixty lawnmowers that could just spin on a.

902
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 2: DIME i think ideally you're trying to strike a balance

903
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 2: sticking with what, works but also not just, saying.

904
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 4: Hey this is always the way we've done. Things we

905
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 4: can never, change we can never.

906
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 3: Adapt, yeah and really having a pulse of the league

907
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 3: is really really important. Too i'm no doubt there see

908
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 3: The Super bowl, Champs BUT i think one of the

909
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 3: Things philadelphia is best at is understanding the trends and

910
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 3: tendencies In paulso the league. Too you, know all of a,

911
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 3: sudden running backs are really, cheap so we'll pay Sakuon

912
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,240
Speaker 3: barkley basically the exact same Contract Gabe davis got with The. Jags,

913
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 3: right who might be in town? Today who's?

914
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 2: GOOD i believe he, Was, yeah uh, yeah who's gonna

915
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 2: bring you more?

916
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 3: Value right right? Right and running back for that cheap

917
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 3: but they didn't pay running back. Forever but, YEAH i

918
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 3: think that's a big thing, too no.

919
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 2: Doubt last one here a nice tweet From david who

920

Speaker 2: Fellas it might be football in, shorts but it still

924
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 2: scratches the itch.

Speaker 2: the same with the combine it's kind of the same

929
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 2: with the. Draft it's kind of the same with training.

930
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 2: Camp it's kind of the same with preseason. Games when

931
