1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: For the fifteen of the ten Mer's Gonna score touchdown.

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Cardinals Red Sea Report. Slid to the

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: ground by Buda Baker like a torpedo. He came flying

4
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: into the backfield one handed catch in a touchdown DeAndre Hopkins.

5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: The Cardinals Red Sea Report is brought to you by

00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals Podcast visit asy Cardinals dot com Slash podcast.

7
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: Here we go over the shoulder catch by Kirk in

8
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 1: the ends over a touchdown, oh Field. Here's Craig Griolu,

9
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: Mike Jarecki, and thirteen year NFL veteran Drew Stantown. We

10
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 1: certainly don't do this enough, but is there a better

11
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: moment than now for a little storytime with Drew. As

12
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: we begin today, the scouting combine is back after a

13
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: one year absence. Every team is represented, more than three

14
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: hundred draft prospects are in Indianapolis, and we flashback to

15
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven. Now, I don't want to date

16
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: yourself here at Drew, but that's quite a ways back,

17
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it's changed a lot since then. But

18
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: this is a big week and maybe not so much

19
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: at least for me, and I know MJ. Probably disagrees,

20
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: But I don't pay particular attention to the on field.

21
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: It's more of what do you get out of the interviews?

22
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: What do you get out of the medical evaluation. But

23
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of news, a lot of

24
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: information coming out this week. But what do you remember

25
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: going back to two thousand and seven in your scouting

26
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: combine experience? Oh? Man, you know, I remember a lot

27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: of things. Some things I try to forget other things.

28
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it is just controlled chaos, right. You get

29
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: hurted in like cattle. They give you a room number,

30
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: you show up with a roommate, and then all of

31
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: a sudden they give you a card of different places

32
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: you have to go at night. And then there's this

33
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: train station that I'm sure the super fans know about

34
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: that you go in at night and they start picking

35
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: you off and pulling you over to the table in

36
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: a position. A coach might talk to you, general manager,

37
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: a front office guy. You take all these different aptitude

38
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: tests of personalization of Okay, you go here and try

39
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: and memorize three numbers, and then I'm gonna switch around

40
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: and try and remember a four numbers. So they're trying

41
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: to do all these different tests. I mean, there's so

42
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: much poking and prodding and all these things. And then

43
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: at the very end, the NFL network shows up and

44
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: they're like, all right, go run a forty, Go run

45
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: a three cone, go throw some routes. And I was like, man,

46
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: like the televisa what you see on TV versus what

47
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: it actually is like to live through it. And I

48
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: remember lining it up to run my forty and I

49
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: was like, look up in the stands, like all of

50
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: these people are about to watch me run forty yards

51
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: and I don't know how it's gonna go. And like,

52
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: you've trained, You've done all these things, they've taught you,

53
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: all these things. Okay, you put your hand in like this,

54
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 1: you start like this. This is how you try and jump.

55
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: Account leave your hand on the clicker as long as possible,

56
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: left hands got to go straight back. But all these things,

57
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: and then you get done and you go do the

58
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: three cone and nobody's watching it because it's not that

59
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: interesting to watch. And that was like one of my

60
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: best things that I did, my vertical jump. Eat it

61
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: on so bad, I don't care who's listening. I had

62
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: sweatpants on. I don't think you can wear sweatpants anymore.

63
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: And I had sweatpants on and bent my knees and

64
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: reached my arms barely up over my head, and I

65
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: just got over the thirty or thirty and a half

66
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: because it's right here. That's all I wanted to do.

67
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: God bless me with a lot of different things than abilities, talents,

68
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: all these things. Vertical jumping about one of them. And

69
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: I had to get that off the books right away,

70
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: So it was good. It's funny MJ on how this

71
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 1: as much information as teams gather, this has become a

72
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: made for TV events, and you know, starting on Thursday,

73
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: as far as when the on field workouts begin through

74
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: the weekend, there's gonna be a lot of eyeballs on

75
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: all of these drills and getting to know these draft prospects,

76
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: probably for the first time if you didn't watch a

77
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: lot of them in college. Yeah, I mean, if you

78
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: look at it, I guess say was the tight ends,

79
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: wide receivers and quarterbacks, and they won't touch the field

80
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: until later in the week, and so you get prodden.

81
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: You got to go through all these exams, and you know,

82
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: this could be it for Indianapolis. I think the NFL

83
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: would actually art have different cities put in a permission

84
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: or at least you can bid on it, and I

85
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: think Arizona would be a great spot. The thing is

86
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: why Indianapolis has made so much sense is because you

87
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: got the hospital right next to the dome and then

88
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 1: they bring in these trailers. What they have MRI and

89
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 1: cat scans. You can do that anywhere, so be interested

90
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: to see in the future. But yeah, at the end

91
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: of the day, I think it's more about the interviews

92
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: and they know the player, the person put him on

93
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: the chalkboard, regardless of position. What were you thinking here?

94
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: How does he process information? And again two things that

95
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: really don't know, what's between the years and what's in

96
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: the chest. By the way, the Dallas Cowboys have already

97
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: come out publicly and said, hey, we would love to

98
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: have the combine in our area. So we'll see where

99
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: this goes after this season. But again, a year ago,

100
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: there was no scouting combine. Everything was basically the world

101
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: was all virtual through zoom. So looking back at last season,

102
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: director a player person up with the Cardinals, Drew Grigson

103
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: talked about how the Cardinals dealt without a combine a

104
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: year ago. I credit our scouting staffs, because I mean

105
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: they were scouting from their offices at home, from their kitchens,

106
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: from the basements, and we pulled in quite a bit

107
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: of information, didn't have a chance to interview the guys

108
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: in person. So what Quentin Harrison I did is we

109
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: put together basically a combined style interview process that we

110
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: did from the draft room. So instead of having players

111
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: brought in in front of us one by one, we

112
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: did it over zoom. And that was again Director of

113
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: Player Personnel Drew Grigson a year ago last offseason joining

114
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: Paul KLVC and Ron Wolfley on the Big Red Rage.

115
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 1: So back in person, Drew, So hopefully knock on Wood,

116
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: things a little bit back to normal. But being in

117
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: person versus having a job interview over zoom, how difficult

118
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: do you think it was a year ago for those

119
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: draft picks I e. Azavan Collins and now all of

120
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: a sudden, now some semblance of normalcy here. Yeah, well,

121
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: I think it's completely different because that faced to face

122
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: contact and so much of what the line is or

123
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: what it has been in the past before last year

124
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: is I view it this way, and this is what

125
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: I tell people that are going that are prepared for it.

126
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: They show up and they want to Every NFL team,

127
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: thirty two teams are looking for a reason not to

128
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: draft you. They are looking for to red flag you

129
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: in some way, shape or form. That's why they go

130
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: through the medical checks. That's why. So don't give them

131
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: a reason not to draft you. So you go via zoom.

132
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: You're in a box, you get this carbon copy, and

133
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,799
Speaker 1: again agents all these facilities. You go to the exos

134
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: of the world, these training facilities, they have all these people.

135
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 1: They know exactly what's going to happen. So they have

136
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: these guys as prepared as possible for the interview process.

137
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: And I remember going to different teams or doing different things,

138
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: they try and trip you up. It's not a very

139
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: straightforward question. They're strategic about how they go about things,

140
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: how they do things because they're trying to peel back

141
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: those layers and get down to that true sense of

142
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: the player they are trying to draft. So if you're

143
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: trying to do that via zoom, it's very hard from

144
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: a team perspective. It's very easy from a player's perspective

145
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: because it kind of gives you the opportunity to not

146
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: have to put it all out there. And you're doing

147
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: this and it's a much easier way in a controlled

148
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: setting as opposed to I remember, like I said, you

149
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: get this note card and you got to be to

150
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: room thirty two at eight fifteen pm and you can

151
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: walk in and all of a sudden you get there

152
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: and it's like the New York Jets and you're like, okay,

153
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about these guys, right. And by

154
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: the end of the week, though, like you're talking to

155
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: your buddies like, hey, where'd you go? What do you

156
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: what do you have lined up? And I got some

157
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: of my stuff knocked out at the Senior Bowl, so

158
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: it was great. But I sat down one time and

159
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: I remember Eric Mangini's there's fifteen guys in the room

160
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: and he's like, hey, tell me everybody's name in the room.

161
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: And you're like, excuse me, and he's like, well, you

162
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: just met everybody. It's important to know what's going on.

163
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: And I was like, I've met a thousand people by

164
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: this point. I know, okay, I know that the head

165
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: coaches him, and I know that you know, you know

166
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: all of these things, but I don't. I couldn't tell

167
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: you everything. And they just try and put you on

168
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: the spot because they want to make you uncomfortable. You're

169
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: not going to be uncomfortable in a zoom call for

170
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: the most part. If you're prepared, you're doing everything you

171
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: should do. So that's the biggest thing. And again it's

172
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: just all wrapped into one, like you said that with

173
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: the medical components of what's going on when I was

174
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: at there, when in two thousand and seven when I

175
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: went to it, there's guys getting MRIs at three o'clock

176
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: in the morning because it's limited facilities. They'll pull you

177
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: out of bed to make you go do this or

178
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: recheck this, or do any of that, and then at

179
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: the very end you have to go run. Now, technology

180
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: is as such that you can do everything right in

181
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: Lucas Oil's parking lot and get all of the images

182
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: that you do, so you know, it's changed, and that's

183
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: allowing it to become another way of the NFL just

184
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 1: having a product a year round that becomes marketable. And

185
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: I don't think people realize they get you up at

186
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: five am and your nights, I think teams can interview

187
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: until ten or eleven. Yeah, it's awful. Yeah, I mean

188
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: you're basically you're just following the guy in front of you. Now,

189
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: let me ask you when it become more prevalent to

190
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: where guys. You know, some guys obviously tap out of

191
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: bowl games if they're going to be a high pick.

192
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: We're seeing a lot of juniors get out to get

193
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: that second contract. But when did it come prevalent to

194
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: where these guys they go to La and even Arizona,

195
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: they work out, they know everything they're gonna do with

196
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: the combine and it's not cheap, yeah, but their agents

197
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: paying for it because they're obviously hoping they were going

198
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: to be a first round pick. Was it happening as

199
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: you're in your career, Yeah, No, I mean I was.

200
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: I think that when you start to see all these

201
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: things because again, they know exactly what the schedule is

202
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: going to look like. I mean, you knew what you

203
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 1: were going to do. And we even had combine prep

204
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: days right where we would be in combine mode. And

205
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: I went down to a facility down in Florida at

206
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: Pete Bamerito's plays. I still have a great relationship with him,

207
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: but he's one of those places, like the exoses of

208
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: the world, that these guys come in and there are machines.

209
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: At this point, they know everything completely tailored to what's

210
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,719
Speaker 1: going on. And we had long days down there, right

211
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: like they were drawn out for a reason. And it

212
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: got to the point where you're doing everything. But it's

213
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: so strategic on body fat, percentage of getting in the

214
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: bodpot okay, and guys that had to put on weight

215
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: or keep wait or maintainer all these different things, and

216
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: then you go to these various rooms and do all

217
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: of it. But these guys are so trained when they

218
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: get there, they can just go on and because they've

219
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: been preparing it since their college season was done right,

220
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: Like I didn't go to a bowl game my senior year.

221
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: I was down there before the new year, and so

222
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: I'm training all the way up until this time with

223
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: a singular focus. I don't have school anymore, I don't

224
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 1: have anything else. And you get prepared for not only

225
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: the combine, but then your pro day then as a quarterback, right,

226
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: everybody's going to market that. And he completed seventy one

227
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: out of seventy three passes, and I remember going to combine,

228
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: it's like, just complete the ball. Who cares what it

229
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 1: looks like. You don't want to come in there and

230
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 1: start like throwing one in the dirt and worm burn

231
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: one or do anything like that. Just complete the passes

232
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: of what's going on, and then you know, you break

233
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: out into your own sessions and do all these different

234
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: things so they each position has their own category within

235
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 1: the exosses of the world. Okay, you're gonna do these drills.

236
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: You're gonna be fine tuned exactly what you need to

237
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: do to put your best foot forward. Now, our producer,

238
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: Jim Amhund leaves no stone unturned. He has gone back

239
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: and dug up the combine results back in two thousand

240
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 1: and seven four Drew Stanton forty yard dash four point

241
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: seven seven and again that's disputable. Yeah, we talked about that,

242
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: like you run it twice. I feel like that was

243
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: my slower time if we're being honest. All right, let

244
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: me ask you this though, when did you ever run

245
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: forty yards playing in the National Football League. That's a

246
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: good questions why. That's why for quarterbacks, I don't pay

247
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 1: too much attention. I don't at all. And most of

248
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: the time I'm running for my life because I'm scared anyway,

249
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: nobody's chasing me. In the forty yard draft, I don't

250
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: have to move faster then, so that's an outlier. Now,

251
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: the three cone six point seven seven seconds. I liked

252
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: that number a lot. Ninety six percent Tile four quarterbacks

253
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: that year. Yeah, no, that was good. That was shifty.

254
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 1: I'll take that. And then the vertical. Yeah, we already

255
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: talked about the vertical and the wonderlick. Thirty five. Yeah,

256
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: that that just tests that. That's a test taking ability,

257
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: that's all it is. But thirty five is a good number.

258
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't, you know. It was no Ryan

259
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick by any means. But I feel like that's a

260
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: good number that you know, it isn't gonna be a

261
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: red flag. Like I said, did he actually score forty

262
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: nine because he didn't want to get a fifty? Who knows? Maybe?

263
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. The guy is awesome. I mean the

264
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: time that I've spent around him, I mean, and everybody

265
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: that's been teammates with him. I fully believe it. And

266
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: it was funny because sometimes you get into these conversations,

267
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: right like last year, I was messing with Blaine Gabbert

268
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: and I was like, Blaine, you're not smarter than me.

269
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,599
Speaker 1: My wonderlock scores highers like, no, it's not. Let's go

270
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 1: look it up. He got like a forty eight. He

271
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: had an unreal score too, Like yeah, So you know

272
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 1: these guys that are out there as long as you,

273
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: like I said, you don't have a red flag within

274
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: that area. And some of those guys that are too smart,

275
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: you know, they're just good at taking test that's all

276
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: that means. Can you need the quarterbacks that were selected

277
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: before you in my draft class? Yeah, of course I can.

278
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: JaMarcus was JaMarcus Russell went first, then Brady Quinn, Kevin Cobb,

279
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: and John Beck and then I was the fifth one.

280
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: So not quite the Brady seven. No, the Stanton fo Yeah, no,

281
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: there was. That was then. But h I remember Mike

282
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: Mayock said that JaMarcus Russell had the best Pro day ever.

283
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: I mean, what did it translate to? Yeah? Well, so

284
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: I knew JaMarcus when he was in college right and

285
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: got to know him. An awesome, awesome guy and so

286
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: much God given it ability and talent. But as you

287
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 1: find out, in this league, it takes a lot more

288
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: than just showing up and playing on Sundays. That's true,

289
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: it does. So what happens this week in Indianapolis again,

290
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: some of these numbers I don't pay too much attention to.

291
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: It's it's great conversation, peace NJ. But just again, tell

292
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: me what you're doing on think I think right, Well,

293
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: you know it takes time. But we also have Staffords

294
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: numbers here and they're very equal to Drew Stanton. Yes,

295
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: Staffords a little bit smarter, but just not as athletic.

296
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: Yeah as Drew. That's that fair. Yeah, with the same

297
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 1: vertical though. Wow. Yikes. Subscribe Arizona Cardinals Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify,

Speaker 1: every Tuesday, eleven am, year round, talking all things Arizona

308
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: Cardinals football. Here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. The

309
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: Cardinals are in third and goal the thirteenth and just

310
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: gotta be smart. Round blitz, quick throw to the left side,

311
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: caught by Hopkins at the ten, slips to tackle, runs

312
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: left to the five into the end zone. Four the touchdown.

313
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: How DeAndre Hopkins broke a tackle. It looked like he

314
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: was dead to right, but he spun out of there.

315
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: Hits payder Arizona leads to thirteen nothing. Deandre's impact on

316
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: the field and off the field, it's huge, and losing

317
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: him not only from our football exos no standpoint, but

318
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: also from an emotional standpoint was big. The numbers are

319
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: staggering eight and two with three and four without DeAndre

320
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: Hopkins missing seven games last season. Cardinals in those games

321
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: again just three wins on the season. As we continue

322
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by a

323
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: Seat Geek get your seats in a seat Craig Riel,

324
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: Drew Stanton and Mike Drecki the voice you heard There

325
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: owner Michael Bidwell last week on Bickley and marouda ninety

326
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: eight seven FM Arizona Sports station, and the impact that

327
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: losing DeAndre Hopkins had not just on the offense but

328
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: the team overall. And we've joked MJ that I would

329
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: love to see DeAndre Hopkins just rapps in bubble wrap

330
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: and say, you know what, I don't care what you do,

331
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: just show up on Sunday one hundred percent and ready

332
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: to go. That's not going to happen because now in

333
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: the offseason you need to get that work in, get

334
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: that chemistry with your starting quarterback and Kyler Murray. And

335
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: this is when the work begins for these players heading

336
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: into the twenty twenty two regular season, and Kingsbury and Hopkins, actually,

337
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: you know addressed where he is, so he should be

338
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: ready for offseason workouts. I don't know how much he's

339
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: gonna do. I mean, clearly, you know in training camp

340
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: is really again they're not installing a new offense. Obviously

341
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: you may have some tweaks to the office based on

342
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: the personnel. So I don't know how much you'll do,

343
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: but to me, just make sure he's ready for the

344
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: regular season. That's beneficial, yes, to keep him healthy for

345
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: the entire time because of how important he is. Now.

346
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens here in the offseason as far

347
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: as a drafting, free agency, whether some help can be

348
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: added as far as wide receiver help. But when you

349
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: talk about offseason workouts, drew and again, I'll be honest,

350
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: don't know what offseason workouts are going to look like

351
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: based off of what has happened the previous two seasons,

352
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: and the NFLPA understanding that, Hey, you know, we got

353
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,479
Speaker 1: through two years with very limited offseason work. But the

354
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 1: onus is on the players. Is it not to get ready,

355
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: not use training camp to get ready, but show up

356
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: ready and put in the work right now? Oh yeah,

357
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: I mean this is you know, when I first got

358
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: in the NFL, as you were dating me back to

359
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, I mean, we would start in

360
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: the beginning of March and you would have all this downtime,

361
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: but it gave you so much time to prepare. I mean,

362
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: this is your job, this is how you make a living.

363
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: And so you'd get in there and you would relearn

364
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: the offense, you'd start back over and do all these things.

365
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: You'd get up to speed working out. Now guys are

366
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: forced to do that. And as you're talking about the NFLPA,

367
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 1: a lot of the people that are running the NFLPA

368
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: are veterans, right, and veterans just got doing this season.

369
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: They are fine with taking this extended break. They know

370
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: the offense, they know what it takes to get ready

371
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: for a season, and they also want to keep their

372
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: job right. So like all of those things go into it.

373
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: And so some of these guys, even as we saw

374
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: this year in training camp, they had like the extended

375
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: training camp. If some of these injuries that you might,

376
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: you know, want to get back sooner from, they just

377
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: kind of draw it out because they know it's a

378
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: longer season. They know it's a longer training camp and

379
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: you've got to be ready to go week one, and

380
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: veterans know what that takes. Young guys, You've got to

381
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: figure out your process. What is your process to getting ready?

382
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: And I think the biggest detriment of this type of

383
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 1: an off season program is in the trenches. That's where

384
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: NFL games are one. But offensive lineman and defensive linemen

385
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 1: don't have the ability to get together or do any

386
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: of these things to talk about it because you have

387
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 1: to be able to do that. I mean, we talked

388
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: at nauseum about gap integrity around here on defense. When

389
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: you're doing that, you can't go up and simulate that

390
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: on your own in the offense, but in the off season.

391
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: But when you have the ability to do that because

392
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: you're forced to come into the building and you talk

393
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: about it, you're working out together, that camaraderie is built then,

394
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: and that's I think what is unfortunate about this is

395
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 1: a young guys trying to find their way and get

396
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: these opportunities because they're so limited now that it becomes

397
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: even harder. So initially in March, still have to strengthen

398
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 1: conditioning program. That's where Ibby obviously he's going to live

399
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: weights and they can do some conditioning and the two

400
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: weeks later they're able to be on the field without

401
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: coach is. They do have a mandatory mini camp at

402
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: some point, and you know, usually it's five practices. Sometimes

403
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: they'll call the last one off. But but we got

404
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: to keep in mind a lot of this is voluntary,

405
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: but it is your job. And we were having lunch

406
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: outside yesterday when they made the announcement about playing in Mexico.

407
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: We had a nice little siesta there and J. J.

408
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: Watt was running on the field. I mean, so there's

409
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: guys that can still show up here. Obviously he's under

410
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 1: contract a little bit different than other guys, but you know,

411
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: I thought last year when you start to see guys

412
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: make strides, I mean he looked at Byber and Murphy

413
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: looked like his body got a lot, you know, stronger

414
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds when James Conner was here. So it's more

415
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: passing the eye test. What kind of shape are you

416
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: in and are you going to put the work? And

417
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 1: when nobody's watching, And that's key right there, when no

418
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: one is watching, not when the cameras are rolling or

419
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: will you have to show up and you know, check

420
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,959
Speaker 1: the bark, you know, attended today and then you do

421
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: what you have to do and then you're done for

422
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 1: the rest of the day. But there is a hope

423
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 1: that there will be a full offseason, something owner Michael

424
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 1: Bidwell discussed last week on ninety eight seven FM Arizona

425
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 1: Sports Station. It looks like these COVID clouds are clearing,

426
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: and when you think about the off seasons, you know,

427
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: the draft choices never have a full off season, as

428
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 1: you know, but after that, we never had a full

429
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 1: off season program with Kyler Murray in this offense. It

430
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: was all interrupted by the COVID rules, so they were

431
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: not working out in the off season. So it looks

432
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: like this year, we'll have a full off season with

433
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: this offense, and I couldn't be more excited about what

434
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: that is going to yield. Specifically when you hear him

435
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: talk about draft picks Ron del Moore and the improvement

436
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: that he might be able to make from year one

437
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: to year two. Defensively's Avian Collins from year one to

438
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 1: year two. We saw Isaiah Simmons make that jump from

439
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: year one to year two. And I think it's key

440
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: Drew what you said as far as not so much

441
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: for the veterans, but for those young talents, and I

442
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: would include Kyler Murray still being young going into year four.

443
00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: Those players benefit the most, especially when you're in an

444
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: offense that throws the ball a lot. Yeah. I mean,

445
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: you're not drinking from a fire hose week in a

446
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: week out. When you're in season, it is go, go, go,

447
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 1: go go. You don't have time to reflect. Now you

448
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: get a chance to slow down, pull back, you get

449
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: to go back. And Kyler has an unbelievable amount of

450
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: tape already out there that he can learn from, he

451
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 1: can grow from. But then guys, the other guys that

452
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: you talked about, right, these guys can start watching cut

453
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,439
Speaker 1: up things can get pushed to their iPad. They can

454
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: do all this stuff individually at each position because now

455
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 1: they can focus on something, whether it's a wide receiver,

456
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: just taking one concept and trying to learn that whole

457
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: concept and its entirety, you know, as we're talking about

458
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: and as this marks of the combine, right, this is

459
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: these college guys have been going since all the way

460
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: since last summer, and now they're coming in and they're

461
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: preparing for this combine. Now they're going to get the

462
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: pro days, they're gonna get drafted. That's fast forward. That's

463
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 1: why you see these guys hit these rookie walls. These

464
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: rookie walls that everybody speaks about. They're real and it

465
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: happens because they're going NonStop and trying to put their

466
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: best foot forward. But they get this reprief going into

467
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: this offseason. They get this opportunity to then the daven

468
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: Collins of the world to learn the nuances of the offense.

469
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: And it's not just surface level, right, you get to

470
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: get deep and all of a sudden, Okay, so if

471
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: they send the motion here, if they shift here, we

472
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: get the opportunity to then prepare and that's really where

473
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 1: we want to see a lot of growth. I think

474
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: these guys can make those monstrous jumps from year one

475
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: to year two because they're more comfortable, and you're going

476
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 1: to see the Isaiah Simmons of the world because he's

477
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 1: got so much tape. Now, Okay, what were you thinking here?

478
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: What was going on there? That's the beauty of being

479
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: able to do this and the fact that we live

480
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: here in Arizona. People want to be here, Guys want

481
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 1: to be around in Green Bay. That's why you see

482
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 1: so many of these workout bonuses because it forces guys

483
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: to stay there to get paid. You don't have to

484
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: force anybody in Arizona to do that, and I think

485
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: it's a testament and an advantage of being a part

486
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 1: of this organization. I mean, I knew when I was

487
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: going to be a free agent, I want to stay

488
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: here as long as possible with Buddy Morris because he's

489
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: the best strength coach in the NFL, the best that

490
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: I've ever been around. And so I went all the

491
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 1: way up knowing that I wasn't even going to resign

492
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 1: here like they were, like they'd gotten Steve Wilkson, and

493
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: the writing was on the wall. They wanted to flush

494
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: out the quarterback room. But I was staying here until

495
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: the new league started and they were kicking me out

496
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 1: of the building. And some of these guys would be

497
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: smart to do the same. You know. This interesting thing is,

498
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: you know these guys have been you know, patted on

499
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: the back, how great there are, you know, from family

500
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: and agents and mock drafts, and then they go on

501
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: the banquet tour and they you know, but when you

502
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: get drafted, it's time to go to work. I mean,

503
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: because all of a sudden, now this is your job,

504
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: this is your profession. So you know, hopefully they can

505
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: have visits where you can take guys out for dinner,

506
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: because you want to take them out of this setting,

507
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: you know, from the facility. You know, obviously you want

508
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: to get to know the player and the person and

509
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: the personality. But it's interesting because once they get drafted,

510
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, this is really really when it starts,

511
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 1: I've put all the work in, and how is it

512
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: going to translate to the NFL. Well, at that point,

513
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: everyone's equal. Yeah, whether you signed as a free agent,

514
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: you're a veteran, you're a draft pick, or an undrafted

515
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: free agent, You line up one hundred players on the

516
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: football field and everyone's the same, and they'll tell you.

517
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, first, second, third round picks have more

518
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,199
Speaker 1: premium because you know you're investing in But at a

519
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: lot of gms and head coaches, they really don't care

520
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: how you got here. It's what you're gonna do to

521
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: be part of that fifty three man roster. Can you

522
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 1: help us win a ballgame on Sunday no matter how

523
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 1: you got here. Now though it might be a little

524
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: bit more leeway for a first round draft pick, a

525
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: second round draft pick, that free agent that just signed

526
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: a five year mega contract, but yeah, those players, can

527
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 1: you do enough win the eye of the head coach

528
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: to you're active on game day this upcoming season? So again,

529
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: these offseason is going to be amazing, not only on

530
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: the field, but off the field as well as far

531
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 1: as what this team does to get itself back in

532

539
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 1: on the off season, but specifically free agency, which begins

540
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: in a matter of days little over a couple of

541
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: weeks the Arizona Cardinals. We'll get to that next here

542
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. Hurry and the gun

543
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: takes the shotguns that stand looks down, backs up, goes

544
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: office back book. One handed catch Connor up in the

545
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: middle of the ten, inside the ten and down in

546
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: the five yard line for an eighteen yard game. What

547
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,439
Speaker 1: a Graham. He does it in back to back weeks

548
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: with one handed catches, Go go Catchet, stare up the

549
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: bag and they run Connor up the middle. He's stuffed,

550
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: but he breaks a tackle and gets into the end

551
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 1: zone for a touchdown. James Connor continues to be one

552
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: of the best free agent signings maybe ever for the Cardinals.

553
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 1: They're gonna go wildcat Jonathan Ward in the backfield with Connor,

554
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: who takes the snap. Connor runs left. He's down to

555
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: the five. Heats defeat moving. James Conner is at of

556
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: the end zone for the touchdown. Eighteen touchdowns from James

557
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: Conner in twenty twenty one, eighteen a career high for him.

558
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: Fifteen rushing touchdowns tied for the most and the league.

559
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: And yeah, a huge free agent pickup a year ago,

560
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 1: and now perhaps another free agent pickup this offseason because

561
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: he just signed a one year deal MJ and he

562
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 1: is once again on the markets and there probably will

563
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: be more than just the Arizona Cardinals come knocking on

564
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: his door when free agency begins in the middle of March. Well,

565
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the days are over unless you're

566
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, Elvin Cook, maybe even Elvin Kamara, and these

567
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: guys getting those long contracts like Todd Gurley and David

568
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: Johnson got. Now, according to John Clayton, he doesn't think

569
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: any of these running backs are gonna get over average

570
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 1: six million a year. And if you look at the list,

571
00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon one and then it's James Conner and Chase Edmonds.

572
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: So this can benefit the Arizona Cardinals. I don't know

573
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: if they want to bring both back. Obviously you'd like

574
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: to have both in the locker room and on the field.

575
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: They also signed Jalen Samuels, who's got forty five starts.

576
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: He's kind of similar to Connor size, so we'll have

577
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: to wait and see. But if you're James Connor were

578
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 1: twenty seven, you probably want to get more than a

579
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: one year deal, and we know what running backs start

580
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: to hit the wall thirty Now. I do think in

581
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: this offense and we go back to Kenyan Drake, I

582
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: think Kingsbury likes to ride the hot hand and he

583
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: could be the bell cow in this offense. James Connor

584
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: free agent, Chase Edmonds a free agent, so you're looking

585
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: at running back as an area of need going into

586
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: this offseason. Most likely in free agency, you certainly would

587
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: like to have Connor back. But if not, because you

588
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: get to a point where he says, I'd love to

589
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,439
Speaker 1: come back, but hey, you know what, I got this

590
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 1: offer over here, it's worth more, and at twenty seven,

591
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 1: you're perhaps final chance at a huge payday. I could

592
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 1: see him going for the money versus you know where

593
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm used the best, just based off longevity in the

594
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: National Football League. But for me, Drew, I would love

595
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: to see James Connor come back, not at any price,

596
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: but just what we saw within this offense. Let me

597
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: ask you, though, Drew. I mean we always talk about, yes,

598
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: you got to cash in, but he fits this offense.

599
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: What the offense wants him to do? I mean, is

600
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: he gonna go somewhere else where He's going to be

601
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: the one two punch, He's gonna be the short yardage guy.

602
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 1: So again, I can't speak for him. He's got to

603
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: do what's best for him and his family, and he's

604
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: earned the right to be a free agent. But I

605
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: just think he fits what they're doing here and that

606
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: may not be the case somewhere else. Yeah. Well, and

607
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: I think when you become a veteran, you see the

608
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: bigger picture, right, you don't chase the money. And that's

609
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,479
Speaker 1: one thing that I think is important as you become

610
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: wiser in this league and you see how all of

611
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: it fits together. You look for the opportunity and the

612
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: money will follow. And he followed a great opportunity here

613
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: because the money wasn't great anywhere, right, And I think

614
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: it's a testament to him. It's how he works. But

615
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: playing on natural graph, practicing on that trograss, working out

616
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: with Buddy Morris, So those guys go way back from

617
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: being Pittsburgh guys like all of those things. And you

618
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: see what James was able to do throughout the course

619
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: of entire season, right like he didn't show anywhere and

620
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,479
Speaker 1: tear when he had to be that bell cow. And

621
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: so I think it gives you confidence, but then it

622
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: also gives you reassurance of knowing I can go back there.

623
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: I just want to be compensated, and the off season

624
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: is a time to be selfish, but it's also you're

625
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: going to have to open up the checkbook a little

626
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: bit more. You're going to have to be, you know,

627
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: cognizant that there's other teams that are going to be

628
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: in the fight, and you've got to show that respect

629
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: to him. That's a guy that's earned it. To me,

630
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 1: a guy that showed up each and every Sunday, gave

631
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: it everything he had and changed the mindset of that offense.

632
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 1: I mean, one play that sticks out to me, maybe

633
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 1: more than any of the entire season is when Aaron

634
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: Donald had him dead to rights on the goal line

635
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: and he found a way to get in the end zone.

636
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 1: I don't know many backs in the NFL that are

637
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: winning that matchup, let alone anybody else. And maybe there's

638
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: a handful but his demeanor that's infectious, that leadership qualities

639
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: that he has. I don't want to lose that, and

640
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: I'm willing to pay more for that versus some of

641
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: these other guys that are still like you're betting on

642
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: the come with free agency or or other things on

643
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: the moving pieces. But it's all got to fit together

644
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: on the grand scheme. March sixteenth is the dates of

645
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: free agency and the new league year. The legal tampering

646
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: period begins on March fourteenth. The Voice of the Arizona

647
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: Cardinals Day Pass recently on The Big Red Rage, talked

648
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: about what free agency might look like for the Arizona Cardinals.

649
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: I think it'll be active, and I think it starts

650
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: with resigning your key players. I would assume that James

651
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: Connor and Zachertz are at the top of the list,

652
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: and then you know, trying to figure out, Okay, what

653
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: free agents do we need to target, what trades do

654
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: we need to make? And then I think the draft

655
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: is your last tool that you use to improve your

656
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 1: team because you're that close. You know you've built your team.

657
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: Now it's adding that piece that can get you over

658
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: the top. Twenty one unrestricted free agents that's what the

659
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: Cardinals have at the moments. You try to resign as

660
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: many of those as you can, but then you got

661
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: to look elsewhere to maybe plug a hole for a

662
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: year or two. Where does this team need an upgrade?

663
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: Again the voice Dave Pash on that topic. For me,

664
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: it's a defense. You know, the defensive line, you know,

665
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: is disappointing. A corner they're young. Byron Murphy was great

666
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: the first half, wasn't as good the second half. And

667
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: you know, inside linebacker, you know, at some point you

668
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: know whether it's going out and get somebody else, I

669
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: mean outside linebacker for that matter. You know, do you

670
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: bring back Chandler Jones at his age, given them the

671
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 1: money that he's going to attract on the open market,

672
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: and then you know your draft picks the last two years,

673
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons took a step. He's got to take another step.

674
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: Zavian Collins has to be a factor. A number of

675
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: different positions drew when you hear that, as far as

676
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: offense and defense, but positions that you think that this

677
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: team needs to upgrade, whether that's a resign or go

678
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: out and plug a hole. Oh well, I think you're

679
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: always looking for ways of them, and Dave did a

680
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: tremendous job of kind of setting the tone for that

681
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 1: and even closed indoor on this thought, I would draft

682
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: a running back every single year. I think these two

683
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: young guys that we have are great, Nino Benjamin and

684
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: Jonathan Ward. I would be excited to see them play more.

685
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: But every single year I'd be drafted a wide receiver

686
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: and a running back because you can find a diamond

687
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: in the rough later on. As far as those guys

688
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: up front, you want to be able to find that.

689
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 1: The hard positions are the corners of the world. I mean,

690
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: you get Marco Wilson, you move up to get him

691
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: and hopefully he can continue to progress and do all that.

692
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw a name out there right now because

693
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this. If they can find a

694
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: way to get clay As Campbell back here, I think

695
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: it would be unbelievable because those are the type of

696
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: guys that are kind of on the last leg. You

697
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: know what you're gonna get out of him. He wants

698
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: to be in Arizona. He has a place here. Whatever

699
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: that cost is to be able to bring a household

700
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: name back like that, because unfortunately I was here when

701
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: he left, and that was that one hurt because you

702
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: know what he brings to not only the team, but

703
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: the organization to the city. Guys like that that are

704
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: veteran guys see the bigger picture getting guys back like

705
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: that because he can still eat up gaps, he can

706
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: do all these things, He can inspire these young guys

707
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,719
Speaker 1: in a lead by example, and still you know, can

708
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: still play at a high level when he's healthy. So

709
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: those are those are the pieces that you kind of

710
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: have to put back together. The aj greens where you

711
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: sign a one year deal and say, okay, if he

712
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: can play a Pro Bowl caliber level, then that's worth

713
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: and justifying that millions of dollars. So it's a chess

714
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: match of doing it. Free agent corners are hard to find.

715
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest thing. You look at safety

716
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: and everybody feels good with those two guys. I mean,

717
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 1: those guys are as good as it gets in this league.

718
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: And then it's progressing some of these guys with a

719
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: full offseason. I slot corner I would love to see

720
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 1: because you see these guys in this division, in particularly

721
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: these shifty guys that are inside the Cooper cups of

722
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: the world, the Tyler Locketts, you're going to be able

723
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: to have to do that, Deebo Samuel. You want somebody

724
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: that can make tackles on the inside, but then also

725
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 1: cover and be able to shut down a tight end,

726
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: do all these things so you can get multiple like

727
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: Vans wants to do. When I look at the outside

728
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: landbacker position, I think, you know how sign Reddick. We'll

729
00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: see if he gives a tack put on him. And

730
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: then you know Zach cutting him as a guy that

731
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: went to Tennessee and he played really well, so he's

732
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: an inside linebacker. The Cardinals did have interest in him

733
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,879
Speaker 1: Reddick twenty seven. Again, he potentially could be tagged by

734
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. Klais Campbell's an interest in one Drew

735
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,240
Speaker 1: just because of his age at thirty five, but still

736
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: even at that age, you know it is in a

737
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,439
Speaker 1: one year, two year deal. But coming back to where

738
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: it all began, full circle for someone that is beloved

739
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: in this market, Yeah, I'm putting it out there. You

740
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: know what there will see. I don't. I can't speak

741
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: for Klais, but I think it would be a very

742
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: intriguing fit for a team that's good and clothes. Like

743
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: you said, you've got to fill these roster spots each

744
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: in every different way and what that looks like. But

745
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 1: that's the guy to me that I would love to

746
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: be able to go to battle with. Do you have

747
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 1: any dreams of being a general manager or working in

748
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 1: the front office? Yeah, I would love too. I just

749
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: I don't have to make any decisions. I'm just gonna

750
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: sit and talk with you guys. My livelihood doesn't depend

751
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: on it. But no, I think playing quarterback right and

752
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 1: being able to be in the background you see see

753
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: how it all fits together. And like you said, what

754
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: you do when people aren't watching, but your teammates are

755
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: always watching, and that's the most important thing. And that's

756
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 1: when it comes down to crunch time. Can you rely

757
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: on the guy next to you? And I can wholeheartedly

758
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: say that Clays Campbell somebody I could rely on. Chandler

759
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: Jones is somebody I could rely on. Rodney Hudson. Those

760
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: are the type of people that you want to build

761
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,359
Speaker 1: through in free agency. James Connor, same type of way.

762
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 1: Zach Ertz. I'd make him a premium get him back.

763
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: You want him pass catching, being able to do all

764
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 1: the things that he can do because he's been there,

765
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 1: he's done that. Colt McCoy is a no brainer for

766
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: me to bring back because of keeping that continuity in

767
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: the quarterback room as you just try and progress. So yeah,

768
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: by the way, it wasn't a move in free agency,

769
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: but it was the first big move of the off season.

770
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: One year ago today, J J. Watt broke his own

771
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: news he and the Cardinals had reached agreements on a

772
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: two year contract, and that certainly changed the narrative of

773
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: the off season in twenty twenty one. What's the narrative

774
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,240
Speaker 1: of this off season? What did that happens before free agency,

775
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 1: during free agency or the draft in April. It's gonna

776
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 1: be fascinating here and we'll follow it all on the

791
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: was in two thousand and five, they patched Ron Wilfley

792
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: the Cardinals and forty nine Ers in Mexico City. Cardinals

793
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 1: won that game thirty one to fourteen, and though it

794
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 1: was scheduled two years ago, the pandemic erased that. But

795
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals once again scheduled to play in Mexico City

796
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 1: here in twenty twenty two. The specific opponent, the dates

797
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: the kickoff time not known, but the NFL did announce

798
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 1: that five teams will be playing international games and the

799
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: Cardinals one of those teams in twenty twenty two, which

800
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: springs to mind that last time the Cardinals played in

801
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: Mexico City two thousand and five. Little Nuggets or some

802
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 1: more information on that's it was one of our Cardinals

803
00:37:52,480 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: Folk Tales episodes one time in Mexico. What were your

804
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 1: thoughts I'm playing in Mexico. First of all, it was great.

805
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: It's a great exparion to get outside the world and

806
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 1: uh and world, you know how we do it. I

807
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: thought it was one of the biggest moments of my career,

808
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:20,800
Speaker 1: believe it or not. I mean one games, but the

809
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 1: way Stadios dec and Mexican people reacted to that flag,

810
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 1: I got goose bumps under here. I mean, it was

811
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 1: absolutely in Fuego. We're about to come into the biggest

812
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 1: arena in Latin America, and I think a style of

813
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: stack I really brought it that day I come to

814
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 1: the Komi Dannis Green, is this actually happening? An NFL

815
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: professional game is being played here? One that counts. It

816
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: actually happened. It definitely counted, and it will always stand

817
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: as NFL history. An amazing scene flashbulbs popping for the

818
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: first ever National Football League regular season game abroad. That's right,

819
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,720
Speaker 1: Never before had an NFL regular season game been played

820
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: outside the United States. This is Cardinals Folk Tales presented

Speaker 1: memories of those who lived it. It was in freaking incredible.

824
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 1: It was called the birth of international football for the NFL.

Speaker 1: Also got asy Cardinals dot Com. Over one hundred and

828
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 1: three thousand fans in two thousand and five. Watch the

829
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 1: Cardinals beat the forty nine Ers thirty one to fourteen.

830
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: We'll see how many are in attendance this season coming

831
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,319
Speaker 1: up when the Cardinals go back to Mexico City, Drew,

832
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: did you have an opportunity to play internationally at all? Oh,

833
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about it. That's when we

834
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: went to London Carson. Carson got hurt and that one

835
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: against the Realms was not good. So I don't have

836
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: fond memories of that. But let's let's focus on Mexico

837
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: City because that would be much better and more fun

838
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,359
Speaker 1: to do. And I think it's great for you're talking

839
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: about in general, growing this sport and what we try

840
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 1: to do as professional athletes. I think within the realm

841
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 1: of that and being able to go south and be

842
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: in a crowd in an environment like that that's so different,

843
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: but expand the sport because that's what we're trying to do.

844
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 1: I think it's fantastic and I think it's great that

845
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals will be able to do that. And

846
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,320
Speaker 1: you feel the energy. You feed off of that energy

847
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:52,360
Speaker 1: when you're in a stadium, and you know, I'm excited

848
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: for them to be able to experience it. League is

849
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 1: also going back to London and for the first time

850
00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:01,240
Speaker 1: MJ Germany as well. So this is what the NFL

851
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,720
Speaker 1: wants to do to expand its brand and go global,

852
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 1: and that's what they're that's what they have done and

853
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: that's what they're continuing to do here in twenty twenty two. Yeah,

854
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: and this is the first time that the Green Bay

855
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: Packers will play in They're the thirty second team for

856
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: all those years. Now clearly they must have nine home

857
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: games and they're gonna give one up. Now it's going

858
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,720
Speaker 1: to be a neutral site. They don't have to designate

859
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: who the home team is, even though you're giving up

860
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: a home game there. Yeah, you get the Buccaneers and

861
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: you talked about the Saints and the Packers in Jacksonville,

862
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: So you know, I just think, you know, we've made

863
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: major progress from the pandemic where you can have these games.

864
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: The Cardinals were supposed to play in Mexico in twenty

865
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: twenty and the game was canceled, so they were not

866
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: on the list. And again I couldn't agree more Withdrew

867
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 1: about just growing the game. And you know, it was

868
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: funny watching that game when they kicked extra points and

869
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 1: field goals. There was more like excitement just because they're

870
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: so used to football and soccer there. So it was

871
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,800
Speaker 1: But you know, I think Rolando Canto, we'll do a

872
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: nice you know, preview. He does football camps there, so well.

873
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: I mean, clearly the team's going to treat you like

874
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: another week. I would assume if it's the games on

875
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: a Sunday or a Monday, you just leave a couple

876
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: days earlier. But I was reading Josh McCown's comments just

877
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,320
Speaker 1: about the altitude, and he said the ball was the

878
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 1: first quarter of the gaming. He said it was just

879
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: he was sailing like and the Cardinals would have to

880
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: get used to that, and obviously both teams would have

881
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: to get used to the altitude over seven thousand feet.

882
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: Maybe you go in a day or two early it's

883
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 1: not a typical travel, So you give yourself an opportunity,

884
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: Drew to perhaps get used to that altitude because you know,

885
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:40,240
Speaker 1: whether you're playing you know, division opponents or non division opponent,

886
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: it's still one is seventeen that you got on the schedule. Yeah,

887
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 1: you do everything you can, especially in that week you

888
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,280
Speaker 1: have those blinders on. So I mean, I would imagine

889
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 1: if there are all these different things you need to

890
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: get acclimated to, you'd leave on a Friday if the

891
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: game's on Sunday, because you want to get out there.

892
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 1: You want to get prepared, and we have no idea

893
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: which games account for what and how it's gonna shake

894
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 1: out depending on the opponent they have. So yeah, you

895
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: get there and if the altitude really is that much

896
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: higher than you can adjust, you can adapt. You can

897
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 1: get out there Saturday and have a light jog through

898
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 1: or anything like that, and you throw the ball around

899
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: a little bit. And it'll be interesting to see what

900
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 1: their takeaways are this time around versus two thousand and five. Now,

901
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 1: back in December, the League awarded marketing licenses in Mexico

902
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 1: to nine teams. Cardinals were one of those nine teams.

903
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,280
Speaker 1: Also on that list, forty nine Ers, Rams, and Chiefs.

904
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 1: For the reason I bring those three teams up is

905
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: because those three teams are also on the Cardinals list

906
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 1: of home opponents. So perhaps maybe it is a division

907
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: game more. Maybe you got the Chiefs and Cardinals playing

908
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 1: in Mexico. So I want to see the Chiefs at

909
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 1: State Firm Stadium. We will deal with the division games selfish.

910
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: Hey back you way back to the Rams, forty nine

911
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 1: Ers or Seahawks. Okay, yeah, I want to see the

912
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs at State Firm Stadiums Chiefs. I bet the Chiefs.

913
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: The international game is going to be too good for

914
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes in the shapes I want to see. I

915
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: want to see Patrick Mahomes and the Cardinals maybe on

916
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 1: a Sunday night, Monday Night football in September. Okay, and

917
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 1: the cars ask him for too much? No, no, the

918
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 1: roof open too in September. Yeah, well, you guys have

919
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,880
