Speaker 2: Swam into the ground by Budda Baker like a torpedo.

00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 2: Here we go one hand to catch at a touchdown?

12
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: Oh baby, how's that film? Here's Craig Griolu, Paul Calvic,

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: and thirteen year NFL veteran Drew Stanton.

14
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 4: So I feel I need to mention this off the

15
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 4: top because in just thirty hours from now, that's right,

16
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 4: five pm Arizona time on Wednesday, May fourteenth, we we've

17
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 4: all been waiting for the twenty twenty five NFL schedule

18
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 4: gets released. Is this a big deal? Or has this

19
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 4: become a big deal? As I look to my right

20
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 4: and look at Drew Stanton, who played who probably doesn't

21
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 4: care what the order of opponents is just tell me

22
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 4: when the bye week is and whether I got to

23
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 4: alter my schedule if there are any primetime games.

24
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, there's a couple factors that go into it

25
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 5: has become a very big thing, right the lead in

26
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 5: and the post on Instagram and all these different things,

27
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 5: because everybody wants to know, Okay, who's gonna have the

28
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 5: cute release and the primetime game. From a player's perspective,

29
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 5: it's always been a big deal. It's always been a

30
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 5: big deal because you want to know when your division

31
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 5: opponents are going to be, when you have those East

32
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 5: Coast trips that you might leave on Friday, especially when

33
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 5: you get older and you have kids. So these are

34
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 5: the things you think about. But then also again you've

35
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 5: got to sit there strategically and say, Okay, are we

36
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 5: going to have three back to back to back road games.

37
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 5: Are we going to be going overseas like the Minnesota

38
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 5: Vikings for two weeks all of these things?

39
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be brutal, brutal.

40
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 5: Some people are trying to spend that as a positive.

41
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 5: That is not a positive in any facet of the imagination,

42
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 5: because you are spending so much time outside of your

43
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 5: comfort zone and as players, we are creatures of habit.

44
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 5: And you alluded to this in the second part of

45
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 5: that answer of primetime games, Well, you have to earn

46
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 5: those primetime games. But from a player's perspective, it's great

47
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 5: to not have primetime games.

48
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 3: You get those one.

49
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 5: O'clock slate games, you get to get in your routine,

50
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 5: you get to do all these things. There's nothing worse

51
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 5: than getting flex to a Sunday night game in Philadelphia

52
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 5: when you're playing for the Arizona Cardinals or vice versa.

53
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 5: Of all of a sudden, they're talking about flex and

54
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 5: Thursday games. Not only is a short week, we're gonna

55
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 5: give you an extra gut punch and say, now.

56
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 3: You've got to go out and you've got to do

57
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: all these things.

58
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 5: Again, the schedule matters so much within the locker room.

59
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 5: It always has, always will Now they have found a

60
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 5: way to spin this into another marvelous relief release for

61
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 5: the draft, because each month has its own star studded

62
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 5: day that you mark your calendar, and it happens to

63
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 5: be tomorrow for us.

64
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 6: I mean, correct, does the league do the fans do

65
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 6: we all need a three hour primetime show unveiling the

66
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 6: twenty twenty.

67
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 4: Two different networks.

68
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 6: Of course we do. The appetite is insatiable for the NFL,

69
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 6: all aspects of it. It's a marketing machine. Of course

70
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 6: they're gonna unveil it. You're on a need to know

71
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 6: basis and that's the way it's gonna work.

72
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, but they've already released what ten twelve games.

73
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: It's like the Caps are already out of the back.

74
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 6: The healthy Eagles have a quarter of their schedule outoun Yeah,

75
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 6: speaking to the Super Bowl champion, I mean those guys

76
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 6: are gonna be all over the place, every time zone,

77
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 6: every time slot, every day of the week.

78
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,119
Speaker 3: International.

79
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 6: I mean, if the Eagles aren't worn down by the

80
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 6: schedule this year, you know, props to them. And by

81
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 6: the way, when Minnesota plays that second international game, I

82
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 6: want to see the state of the Vikings. I want

83
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 6: to see the Vikings game day energy when they go

84
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 6: from Dublin to London and what they look like. Aginst

85
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 6: the Browns and the second of back to back international games.

86
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: It is just.

87
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 4: About here five pm on Wednesday, and as we say,

88
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 4: content is king. Some good content coming from the Arizona

89
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 4: Cardinals and Asycardinals, Dot com We'll just leave it at that,

90
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 4: but we wait to see what we are seeing right

91
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: now as we speak here on this Tuesday on on

92
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 4: that football field behind you, Paul, Phase two, meaning the

93
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 4: veterans and the rookies are on the field for the

94
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 4: second straight day. But now you've got I don't know

95
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 4: if there's a full complement of ninety one players behind you,

96
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 4: but a good showing based off the parking lot and

97
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 4: the few spots that are available to park here at

98
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 4: tr Dignity Health Arizona Cardinals Training Center. But now you

99
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 4: have the veterans that have been here know what's going on,

100
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 4: and thirteen new faces that are just trying to figure

101
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 4: out where do I go, where do I what do

102
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 4: I eat?

103
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 6: What do I do? And they just got here last Thursday.

104
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 6: Nobody's gonna win a job. Okay, it's even hard to

105
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 6: make that initial first impression. But you can tell who's lost.

106
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 6: You can definitely tell, like who's floundering, if someone's screwing

107
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 6: up maybe what they've installed so far, the little bit

108
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 6: of the playbook, and or whether someone isn't keeping up

109
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 6: athletically with the other guys out in the field. So

110
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 6: you can stand out if you're failing and flailing. Beyond that, though,

111
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 6: there's not a lot, especially in today's day and age

112
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 6: of Phase two, not a whole bunch of other guys

113
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 6: running around in shorts.

114
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 4: Before we hear from you, Drew, how about we hear

115
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 4: from head coach Jonathan Gannon on what he hopes the

116
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 4: rookies their attitude when they meet the veterans.

117
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 7: N goal obviously is to win, right But if you

118
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 7: don't win, or if you do win, and your thought

119
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 7: processes after that happens is is oh, well you know,

120
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 7: so be it? Like I don't get down with that.

121
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 7: So we try to define that as this like winning

122
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 7: behavior versus non winning behavior, and that goes into on

123
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 7: a day to day basis, both inside the gates and

124
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 7: outside the gates. And are you willing to maximize yourself

125
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 7: as a player in the areas that we want you

126
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 7: to maximize yourself?

127
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 4: You've been both the rookie and a veteran, and that

128
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 4: first day on the field, all of a sudden, wait

129
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 4: a second, what have I gotten myself into? And then

130
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 4: as you get older, do you reach down and uplift

131
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 4: those young young players or hey, wait a second, as

132
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 4: JG just said, we're all fighting for jobs here. There's

133
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 4: ninety we got to get down to fifty three. So

134
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,679
Speaker 4: uh yeah, everyone man, every man for himself.

135
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 3: It's a little of both.

136
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 5: If we're going to be honest, we know, when you're

137
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 5: a young guy, it's almost like you're like the sheep

138
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 5: that are just kind of staying impacts together and you're

139
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 5: kind of wandering because you don't know where the meal

140
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 5: room is.

141
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 3: You just showed up.

142
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 5: You all have to get shuttled back to the hotel

143
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 5: because you're staying there because.

144
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 3: You haven't found a place to live.

145
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 5: And then when you get older, it's like, okay, well

146
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 5: it kind of becomes the necessity, right, Like everybody speculated,

147
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 5: why hasn't Aaron Rodgers signed yet? Well, he doesn't care

148
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 5: about phase one, two or three, probably because he doesn't

149
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 5: want to have to deal with that when he went

150
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 5: on his excursion last year. When you get older, when

151
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 5: you get more comfortable, you have your routine. Again, as

152
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 5: I said earlier, we are creatures of habit. You need

153
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 5: to be peaking when you're going into the season. Phase

154
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 5: two is a necessary evil just to be able to

155
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 5: do all these things in the very near future.

156
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 3: I think all of these.

157
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 5: Phases are about to go away, and the owners are

158
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 5: gonna say, well, we're just gonna add one more game

159
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 5: and we'll let you just take the offseason do whatever

160
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 5: you want to do with it.

161
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 3: It will be.

162
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 5: Unfortunate for young guys because this is their time to learn.

163
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 5: This is their time to unpack their rookie season or

164
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 5: their second season, or get ready for their rookie season.

165
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 5: Until that happens, right, coaches want to grind. Coaches are

166
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 5: like awesome, Like they want to sit in here and

167
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 5: pretend like this is in season. Players are coming in

168
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 5: from the timeslot. They have to be here getting the

169
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 5: required work in that they have to trying to pull

170
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 5: along the entire core group of guys. So when you

171
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 5: can springboard into training camp, you feel good and you

172
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 5: say okay, phase two. Really, what it is is you're

173
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 5: transitioning what you learn in the classroom in phase one

174
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 5: to now translating that onto the field.

175
00:07:59,200 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 3: In phase two.

176
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 5: Say okay, well, this is how I want you to

177
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 5: run this route, this is what we're gonna see here

178
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 5: or we're gonna go over there. And then eventually when

179
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 5: you get to phase three, that becomes more like real

180
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 5: football but right now they're running around with hats on

181
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 5: and doing all these things and getting you know, some

182
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 5: good vitamin D.

183
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 6: Some of the people out there with the most energy

184
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 6: are the coaches, running from drill to drill. Those guys

185
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 6: are like Drew. How much do the young guys watch

186
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 6: the older guys? How much is a Walter Nolan watching

187
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 6: every single thing that Kaleis Campbell does. How much is

188
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 6: Will Johnson the Round two corner watching at Buddha Baker.

189
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 6: How much of those guys learning beyond the coaches just

190
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 6: from the veterans out in the field.

191
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 5: They should be learning a tremendous amount, right learning through

192
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 5: osmosis and sitting there and watching what these guys do.

193
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 5: I mean, these guys are the elite of the elite.

194
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 5: They are Pro Bowl caliber players. But that's also why

195
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 5: you strategically bring these type of guys in. You look

196
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 5: at a Khalais Campbell, and we talked about it on

197
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 5: the show two weeks ago. When you have somebody that

198
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 5: brings in this mountain of a man that has this

199
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 5: presence but has this unbelievable gift to give a way,

200
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,959
Speaker 5: then you reap those benefits and you say this is

201
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 5: going to make our organization better in its entirety, in

202
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 5: every single facet. JG talked about inside the gates and

203
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 5: outside the gates. These guys need to learn that when

204
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 5: they are outside the gates, get go. Be that twenty

205
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 5: one year old, twenty two year old man that's still

206
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 5: conducted himself in a certain way, but get away from

207
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 5: this game. Get away from this because when you come

208
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 5: inside these gates, this is your job. Now you're no

209
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 5: longer going to class, you're not doing any of these things.

210
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 5: This is a required thing for you to show up

211
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 5: and have a certain temperament about you because right now

212
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 5: it is not the Cardinals. There's ninety one guys on

213
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 5: that field right now, and eventually it's going to get

214
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 5: dwindled down, and you better make sure if you're one

215
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 5: of these guys that are a later draft pick or

216
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 5: a young guy trying to earn his keep, that you're

217
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 5: putting your best foot forward because it's a constant evaluation

218
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 5: from here until week one.

219
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 4: It's the competition. JG talked about that Friday ahead of

220
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 4: the start of rookie Mini Caamp.

221
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 7: We are trying to, you know, have as many competition

222
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 7: battles in as many groups on the roster as possible,

223
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 7: and then kind of the best players play, you know,

224
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,239
Speaker 7: and I think you know, when you create a standard

225
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 7: that they understand what they're accountable for. They like that,

226
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 7: you know, and they're not asking questions, well, why did

227
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 7: this happen or why did that happen? They know very

228
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 7: clearly why their role was defined as how it was defined.

229
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 4: There are seven draft picks, six undrafted rookie free agents.

230
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 4: In years past, Paul, there would be tryout players, there'd

231
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 4: be guys brought in with a little bit of experience

232
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 4: trying to win a job, win this roster spot. But

233
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 4: this roster right now, year three Fermani and JG is

234
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 4: to the point, based off what we just heard from

235
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 4: JG that they have their they have their guys. They're

236
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 4: just filling in a little bit some depth, maybe a

237
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 4: little bit of an upgrade here there. But they don't

238
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 4: need an influx of players because they have for the

239
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 4: most part, they're ninety trying to get down tough decisions

240
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 4: to get down to fifty three.

241
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 6: There's also been a change in approach from the front

242
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 6: office when it comes to undrafted rookie free agents. Instead

243
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 6: of more is more, less is more in terms of quantity,

244
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 6: it's more quality. So they've taken that pool of money

245
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 6: that's usually designated for undrafted rookie free agents and they said,

246
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 6: you know what, let's go after more quality guys. It's

247
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 6: gonna cost us a little more, but we're gonna go

248
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 6: after guys who have better odds of making this roster,

249
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 6: who can make a push from the bottom up to

250
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 6: get out on the field.

251
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 4: You saw it last year.

252
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 6: Of course, there was a twelve rookie draft class, so

253
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 6: that had something to do with it as well, But

254
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 6: that just seems to be the approach. There's a few

255
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 6: guys who didn't go drafted that we really desire. There's

256
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 6: gonna be competition in the marketplace for him. We're willing

257
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 6: to pay a little bit more money because we're not

258
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 6: going to sign as many guys. And then can we

259
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 6: coach them up? And that's the other thing I think

260
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 6: you can show this time of year, how coachable are you,

261
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 6: how quickly your process and improve not only retaining information,

262
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 6: but we saw last week guys are even being coached

263
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 6: up on their stance, like back to day one of

264
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 6: Pop Warner Football. Okay, how much can they improve and

265
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 6: incorporate the way we want them to do things, get

266
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 6: out of some old bad habits perhaps, and then the

267
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 6: guys who can accelerate that learning curve and then all

268
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 6: of a sudden, boom, they can catch a coach's eye

269
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 6: that way.

270
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 4: And there is room on this roster for an undrafted

271
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 4: rookie free agent. We've seen it not only under Moni,

272
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 4: but the previous regime as well, I believe Drew. It

273
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 4: is ten out of the last thirteen years at least one

274
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 4: undrafted rookie has made the Week one roster, So that

275
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 4: is again it's a steep hill to climb, but there

276
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 4: is a possibility for one of these half dozen players,

277
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 4: or if there's someone that gets claimed off waivers as

278
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 4: we saw last year from Starline Thomas in years past

279
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 4: and Elijah Higgins, all of a sudden they go unclaim

280
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 4: or they go undrafted, get released and all of a

281
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 4: sudden find a new home here.

282
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's no question. Right, you don't want to make

283
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 5: a decision as a front office or a coaching staff

284
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 5: until you have to, because you have no idea what's

285
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 5: going to come your way in training camp or even

286
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 5: unfortunately sometimes when injuries occur in OTAs, and so you

287
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 5: sit there and you wonder, okay, well this guy can

288
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 5: go on pup, this guy's going to be out for

289
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,319
Speaker 5: this long. What does this look like? Hey, let's give

290
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 5: this young guy a chance. Or again that fourth preseason

291
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 5: game that used to exist. Some guys used to make

292
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 5: the roster based off of that. Again, when the lights

293
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 5: come on, what can you do? That is the resume

294
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 5: that we constantly talk about is the film we put

295
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 5: out there, whether that's in house and you're doing this

296
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 5: on the practice film and saying, okay, well, you know

297
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 5: this guy struggled on early in camp, but now look

298
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 5: where he's at. Look at this progression that he's out

299
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 5: and he's making plays constantly around the ball and he's

300
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 5: just a pest on defense, or you know, he's showing

301
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 5: up on special teams. There's so many ways to add value.

302
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 5: And the sooner that these young guys figure that out,

303
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 5: the sooner they're going to realize this is how I

304
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 5: create longevity in this business. And so for an organization

305
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 5: to sit there and take a look at these guys

306
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 5: and say, yeah, this is historically an organization that will

307
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 5: take a chance on an undrafted free agent rookie or

308
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 5: put more eggs in a basket and maybe he had

309
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 5: a draftable grade, but we only had seven picks. Maybe

310
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 5: that's why they're sitting there saying, Okay, well, these are

311
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 5: guys that we like. And at the end of the day.

312
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 5: JG also talked about it in the first clip. It's

313
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 5: about winning. What are you going to do to put

314
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 5: the best product on the field, because now in year

315
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 5: three with this regime, they have to win and there's

316
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 5: no excuse for this.

317
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 3: They've went through the.

318
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 5: Transition, they've weathered that storm. What can they do now

319
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 5: to put their best foot forward? And there is a

320
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 5: lot more solidified roster spots that are going to go

321
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 5: into camp than there ever has been before.

322
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 6: Once upon a time there was an untrapped rookie safety

323
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 6: out of Oklahoma who used a two interception game in

324
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 6: the third preseason game against Dallas. His name Tony Jefferson.

325
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 6: He's still in the league, so to Drew's point, that

326
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 6: can happen. But it's a process. And then once you

327
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 6: get into the games, that's where you can separate yourself

328
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 6: as a playmaker, as a difference maker.

329
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 4: Bird Gang learned more about Arizona Cardinals twenty twenty five

330
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 4: season tickets, premium seating and the all new luxury field

331
00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 4: seating experiences. Today for all Cardinals ticket information is at

333
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 4: Forward Slash Tickets. Over the next couple of segments here

334
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 4: some of those new faces, some of those draft picks.

335
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 8: Up.

336
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 4: Next, Will Johnson and how he fits within this Jonathan

337
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 4: Gannon Nick Ralis defensive scheme. We'll discuss that next. It's

338
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 4: the Cardinals Red Sea report here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio.

339
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 9: Networksh quick throw in acception, He's gonna be a pick six?

340
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 9: Will Johnson goill tickets, hold on over a touchdown?

341
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Johnson one of the fos cornerbacks, and the puck tray

342
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: seals it t Bechigan pick six touchdowns over Raine.

343
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 2: Play fake accord underneath in accepted Michigan. Will Johnson jump

344
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 2: the rounde cross forward and has.

345
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 6: It at to fide yard line. Will Johnson is one

346
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 6: of the best corners in America.

347
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 10: That was kind of a no brainer too, or like

348
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 10: we think this guy's a starting corner and you know,

349
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 10: just the person as phenomenal, as intangible, as he's very

350
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 10: intelligent and he really is a scheme fit for us too.

351
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 10: So it was like, dude, like, let's take that guy.

352
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 4: Expected to hear his name called on Day one did

353
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 4: not happen until Day two in the second round with

354
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 4: the forty seventh overall pick, Will Johnson, cornerback out of Michigan,

355
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 4: as you's heard some of his highlights, and then head

356
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 4: coach Jonathan Gannon talking about Will on with Adam Schein

357
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 4: on Mad Dog Sports Radio, and this is the consensus

358
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 4: that if there is one player in this seven player

359
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 4: draft class Paul that perhaps not just has a chip

360
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 4: on his shoulder, but could come in immediately and be

361
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 4: that Day one guy, it's Will Johnson. Provided he's healthy,

362
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 4: which was the knock coming into the draft. He insists

363
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 4: on draft night, he insisted when he met with us

364
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 4: on Thursday, mee is no problem, no issues, and he's

365
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 4: been on that football field.

366
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 11: Yeah.

367
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 6: He was beyond just incredulous on draft night about the

368
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 6: knee injury and the reports from Adam Schefter and Ian

369
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 6: Rappaport about teams having long term concerns about the knee

370
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 6: and his words, hasn't been an issue in two years,

371
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 6: so He was a little triggered about that. He admitted

372
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 6: as much. Even j g Imani said he was definitely

373
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 6: frustrated on the phone. We've seen some of that video.

374
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 3: We get it.

375
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 6: He expected to go in round one. He was there

376
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 6: in the green room. As it turns out, Matt Miller,

377
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 6: the ESPN Draft analyst, went back and re rated all

378
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 6: the players selected based on where they were selected, and

379
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 6: he assessed through his analytics draft value. He was the

380
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 6: second best selection in the entire draft based on the

381
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 6: player and where he was picked in terms of the

382
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 6: overall value. Number one, by the way, because Drew's looking

383
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 6: at it, who was number one?

384
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you saw me staring at him glare And Luthor.

385
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 6: Burden at number thirty nine was declared the biggest value.

386
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 6: Will Johnson was number two. But to your point, Craig,

387
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 6: there's no reason, in my opinion, why he can't come

388
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 6: out if he is that perfect of a scheme fit,

389
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 6: and he's able and he says bright as everyone thinks

390
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 6: he is, and there's no reason to think otherwise, and

391
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 6: he's able to master the playbook and they can trust him.

392
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 6: I think he will viuy and compete for a starting gig.

393
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 6: The moment he gets out there.

394
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 4: The issue for a lot of people is Okay, well

395
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 4: you fell, so why And that's something that he was

396
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 4: very open with on draft nights. And now it's kind

397
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 4: of right, let's let let me prove everyone. Let me

398
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 4: prove myself right that I am healthy. And that's something

399
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 4: that Will talked about on the Insiders on NFL Network

400
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 4: on Monday pretty quickly.

401
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 8: I mean, right after you get that car, you're just

402
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 8: happy to be with that team, and you're just a

403
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 8: little motivation, that's all it was. It's a great system,

404
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 8: great scheme, do a lot of great things with their cornerback.

405
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 8: So I'm excited to go out there and make a

406
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 8: lot of plays and have fun in the system and

407
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 8: with this team.

408
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 4: Again, whether you're drafted in the first round, second round,

409
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 4: third round, you always want to be on the football field.

410
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 4: And if you come men and are a Day one

411
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 4: starter as a rookie, as a second round pick. We

412
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 4: heard Jag earlier say, hey, players are going to play.

413
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 4: The best players are going to play. Now it's up

414
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 4: to Will Johnson to show that he is a best

415
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 4: player in that cornerback room.

416
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

417
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 5: Well, I think the thing that I love most was

418
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,719
Speaker 5: the maturity they showed of getting over it right. So

419
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 5: anybody can sit there and be spiteful or say I'm

420
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 5: going to prove everybody wrong.

421
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 3: I'm the best corner in the draft.

422
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 5: I love when these quarterbacks talk about I'm the best

423
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 5: quarterback in the draft. You're not competing against any other

424
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 5: quarterback in this draft. He's not competing against any other

425
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 5: corner in this draft. He's in this building, competing against

426
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 5: these guys in this room. And that's the maturity that

427
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 5: I love. Hey, this is a great scheme fit for me.

428
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 5: This is a great opportunity for me. The opportunity is

429
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,439
Speaker 5: what you want. The opportunity is now right out in

430
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 5: front of him. He can go grasp this. It does

431
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 5: not matter what one of thirty two teams drafted him.

432
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 5: He found a home here in Arizona that could not

433
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 5: have been a better place for him. And this is

434
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 5: what other people get very caught up in. Where you

435
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 5: get drafted, has no determination on that second contract. You

436
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 5: go out and play well, you're going to get broke

437
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,959
Speaker 5: off like you should, and you're going to take care

438
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 5: of itself, especially at that position. So for me, what

439
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 5: I loved reading between the lines how quickly he moved on,

440
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 5: how much he was like, you know what, this is

441
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 5: where I'm supposed to be and I know that, and hey,

442
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,719
Speaker 5: there's a lot of emotions on draft night when you're

443
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 5: sitting in that green room and you're sitting there and

444
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 5: watching everybody else's name get called and you're sitting there, man,

445
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 5: what's going on? What's going on? And then he found

446
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 5: out some of the answers why he has all of

447
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 5: the right in the world to be very, very upset,

448
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 5: But he moved on, just like he's going to have

449
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 5: to move on if he makes a mistake on the

450
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,120
Speaker 5: football field. That's what I'm looking for the maturity of that,

451
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 5: because that lets me know that Will Johnson's going to

452
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 5: be everything he needs to be. He's coming into this

453
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 5: situation with a position that's wide open for him, in

454
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 5: a scheme that he's going to have to learn a

455
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 5: little bit new verbiage. But he's either going to play

456
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 5: cover three, cover two, cover one, cover four, follow this guy,

457
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 5: do this. There's going to be formation adjustments. But that

458
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 5: learning curve for him is not nearly as steep as

459
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 5: call it a Cody Simon that's learning an entire defense

460
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 5: with a green dot, trying to get everybody lined up

461
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 5: so that position, especially on the perimeter where he's going

462
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 5: to play, those guys can make those jumps early and

463
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 5: make massive, massive, massive improvement in a very short period

464
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 5: of time to a defense that needs that help.

465
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 4: And that might be why Will was able to move

466
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 4: on so quickly, because he realizes what he's walking into.

467
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 4: Something he discussed as far as when he was asked

468
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 4: why he feels he fits within this Cardinals defense.

469
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 8: This defense, you know, allows me to use all my

470
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 8: skill sets, you know, being able to play a variety

471
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 8: of coverages, and the way they play their dbs and

472
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 8: their linebackers and just their whole scheme and as a

473
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 8: whole just allows me to make those plays you saw

474
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 8: me making in college. So I think they know that

475
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 8: they've seen that. Yeah, I just got to go out

476
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 8: there and get comfortable in the scheme and go out

477
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 8: there and do it.

478
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 4: Earlier though, he mentioned that he called this defense drough

479
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 4: a cornerback's dream, And I think that's why, again, you're

480
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 4: easily able to get off of that draft disappointment because

481
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 4: you're walking into an opportunity to make place.

482
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

483
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 5: Well, I think the other thing that you also need

484
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 5: to realize from a fans perspective is he's been coached

485
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 5: by NFL coaches already, right, So he was in a

486
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 5: Wink Martindale system before that, and you look at the

487
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 5: defensive coordinators that have come through Michigan and went back

488
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 5: to the Baltimore Ravens and all of these things. He

489
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 5: has been coached by elite coaches already understands. I can

490
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 5: promise you a Wink Martindale style system is more complex

491
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 5: than anything he will ever see. So if he can

492
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 5: digest that and then also be coached in different settings,

493
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,959
Speaker 5: he's already way ahead of the curve. And that's what

494
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 5: I don't think people realize is he's talking with so

495
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 5: much confidence in his voice of I love the variety,

496
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 5: and that's what you need. He has a level and

497
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 5: a foundation that is far superior to most corners as

498
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 5: soon as he steps in this building.

499
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,640
Speaker 6: Here's the other thing I'm curious about is everyone raised

500
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 6: about his instincts. There are things you can't teach the

501
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 6: fact he's nearly six' to, two you, know just the

502
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 6: fluided and his, movements but the. Instincts last TIME i

503
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 6: saw A dB where the scount. Reports raved about the

504
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 6: instincts to this degree Was Tyron. Matthew i'm just curious

505
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 6: to see what that means in this system Because Buddha

506
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 6: baker is one of those guys as. Well so if

507
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 6: you're able to do unlock, that if he's able to

508
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 6: be seek and, destroy for, example if there are schemes

509
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 6: where he has you, know someone else has deep responsibilities

510
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 6: and he can sort of just operate because you saw

511
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 6: him with more pick sixes than touchdown catches. Allowed is

512
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 6: there some way The cardinals can capture that in this

513
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 6: system combined with A Buddha, baker combined with a better pass.

514
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 6: Rush it's just the possibilities are intriguing to me when

515
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 6: you look at him and what you see in the scounter.

516
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 4: Report and there is a little bit more freedom within

517
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 4: this defensive, scheme especially for cornerbacks if they have the.

518
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 4: Instincts BECAUSE jg talks, about, yeah there are, rules but you,

519
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 4: know if you see something or, whatever as long as

520
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 4: you making the right. Decision now all of a, sudden,

521
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 4: okay playoff those instincts if you're in the right place

522
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 4: at the right.

523
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 6: Time and, again, Look Garrett williams is going to be a.

524
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 6: Starter Buddha baker is going to be a starter after,

525
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 6: That there's nothing guaranteed to. ME i Think Jalen thompson

526
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 6: is going to get a run From. Rabbit that's just

527
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 6: my gut. FEELING i might be in the minority on. That,

528
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 6: Otherwise Starling thomas has started nearly two dozen games in two,

529
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 6: years but he's young and he was undrafted to begin.

530
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 6: With other than, That Sean Murphy. Bunting you saw him

531
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 6: in and out of the lineup at different times a year,

532
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,880
Speaker 6: ago so there is. Opportunity there are what twelve corners

533
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 6: on this roster right, NOW i mean it is a

534
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 6: free for all going into, camp.

535
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 4: And then a big question Mark Elijah, jones the third

536
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 4: round pick a year, ago who he did not see

537
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,439
Speaker 4: on the football field a couple of days at. Practice, so,

538
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 4: yeah twelve cornerbacks in the. Room but can you make

539
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 4: that jump from college to the pro. Level Jonathan gannon

540
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 4: on the challenges of playing cornerback in THE.

541
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 7: Nfl the best athletes on the, field they're covering them

542
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 7: a lot of. Times they don't have a lot of.

543
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 7: Help there's good receivers in college and there's good quarterbacks in.

544
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,679
Speaker 7: College When i'm about to, SAY i want that to

545
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 7: be is. Construed but this is the best of the.

546
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 7: Best so if you get, beat the ball is gonna find.

547
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 12: You we're in.

548
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 7: COLLEGE i don't see that all the, time you know

549
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 7: WHAT i, mean for all kinds of. Reasons but you,

550
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 7: know the quarterbacks here can stand in the pocket and

551
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 7: deliver the ball accurately on. Time that's an adjustment for those, guys.

552
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 4: All, right Quarterback Drew stanton as far as when you're

553
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 4: open or you think you're, open and those windows in

554
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 4: THE nfl versus windows in, college and oh, YEAH i

555
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 4: was covering, him but he's still got the, ball and

556
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 4: more times than, not that's gonna happen in THE.

557
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 5: Nfl, Yeah, well when you go through your read and

558
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 5: your progression as a, quarterback, right number one's not, open

559
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 5: you move on to number. Two number two is not,

560
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 5: open you go out to number. Three if number three

561
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 5: is wide open because somebody tried to undercut where he

562
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 5: wasn't supposed to or didn't know where his help was

563
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 5: or had the wrong, leverage then, yeah that becomes an explosive.

564
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 5: Play so he is exactly right in that assessment of

565
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 5: from a quarterback's. Perspective, Right i'm going through my progression much.

566
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 5: Faster i'm staying in the pocket much longer Because i'm

567
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 5: not looking to escape or do any of these. Things

568
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 5: just Ask Kaylor williams how well that worked out for

569
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 5: him last.

570
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 3: Year paul got.

571
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 5: It, Yeah so, again you're going to do all of these,

572
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 5: things and if you're not doing your one eleventh on,

573
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 5: defense it gets. Exposed and then it gets really exposed

574
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 5: when you're talking about That's Marvin, HARRISON i was supposed

575
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 5: to be, governing or that's some other said player THAT

576
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 5: i didn't do my, job and now it becomes a

577
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 5: touchdown and you're down a, touchdown and so what that looks.

578
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 5: Like the momentum can change based off of one play

579
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 5: within the, game and we constantly are talking about there

580
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 5: usually is three to four, plays whether you make them

581
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 5: or you don't make them in AN nfl game that

582
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 5: decides the outcome of that particular. Game and so when

583
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 5: you're making that, play if you do undercut it and

584
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 5: You're Will, johnson you get a, pick or if you

585
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 5: Are Buddha baker and you get a tackle for loss

586
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 5: and then they punt and you have a short. Field

587
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 5: every single one of these. Plays of the one hundred

588
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 5: and twenty to forty plays that go on throughout the

589
00:26:58,600 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 5: course of the, game.

590
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 3: You don't know when they're gonna pop.

591
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 5: Up but the more athletes you can get out on the,

592
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,479
Speaker 5: field the more guys that have unbelievable, instincts that trust

593
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 5: those instincts when the time is right and the game

594
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 5: is on the, line that's where those amount two wins

595
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 5: for you that you weren't necessarily getting early on in this.

596
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 5: Regime now you're, Saying, okay we can do. This but

597
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 5: the other aspect of it is it's good to have

598
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 5: strength in, numbers but you don't want too many of

599
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,479
Speaker 5: the guys all in that same kind of. Area we

600
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 5: need guys separated. Themselves we Need Sean Murphy bunting to stay.

601
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 5: Healthy we need him to be the nickel that's going

602
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 5: to cheat but knows that he has help over the

603
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 5: top when the time comes and somebody has his.

604
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 4: Back it's gonna be fascinating, competition not only here in the,

605
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 4: offseason but we get to training camp and figuring, out all,

606

Speaker 5: is versatility is what comes to, mind, here right is

647
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 5: a luxury that you have in the third round is

648
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 5: to get this kind of a guy that led an

649
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 5: elite defense in, college football right with what they were

650
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 5: able to Accomplish. At, oregon uh but can go down

651
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 5: and play inside that can do some different things and

652
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 5: create this and again allow him to just be the

653
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 5: athlete that, he is allow his versatility to show up

654
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 5: on the field because they're not going to be sliding

655
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 5: the line. To him they're not going to be keen

656
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 5: on a guy like this until they make him a

657
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 5: priority because there are so many priorities on this defensive,

658
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 5: Front now so allow him to get. IN there mani

659
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 5: talked about being able to push, the pocket collapse, the

660
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 5: pocket being able to, go, inside outside create all these

670
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,959

Speaker 12: It.

699
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 5: Radar defense right so it's like they're all on radar

700
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 5: and their blips on a radar and you're trying.

701
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,160

703
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 5: right it's like, playing battleship essentially and so you're up

704
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 5: there trying to identify. What it is if they're all tucked,

705
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 5: in the box you're trying to, spread them out get,

706
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 5: the ball out and again create some type of situation

707
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 5: because you know their hand, is their deception and so

708
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 5: you're trying to use cadence to get them to show who's.

709
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 5: The known rushers what your guys you're going to consider

710
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 5: down because you're always trying to turn it into is

711
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 5: this a? Three down situation is it a four down?

712
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 5: Situation or five and you have to relay that and

713
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 5: communicate that. With the center so then, They, can say

714
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 5: okay well we're gonna make this guy down and this,

715
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,880

723
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 5: i talked about it makes it. That much harder so from,

724
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,239
Speaker 5: a quarterbacks perspective it might be. Third and law can

725
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 5: you see them roll all these guys out in this package,

726
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 5: Or personnel grouping you break the huddle and you see

727
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 5: them all roaming around on radar and you just get to,

728
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 5: a quick screen you get the ball out, and then,

729

00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:34,160

00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 16: whatever society in. The world is it's the only thing

832
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 16: left in the world where you can take someone and

833
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 16: move them against their will and push them around and

834
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 16: be physical and not get in.

835
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 3: Trouble for it that's got to.

836
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 16: Be a mindset like we're gonna take this guy and

837
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 16: we're gonna, move this guy or we're gonna protect this

838
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 16: guy and no one's. Touching our quarterback and so you

839
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 16: need to sense and see that from guys that when they're,

840
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 16: playing the game they're not trying to be. Precise or

841

854
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 4: an offensive player added. To the mix and it's a

855
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 4: position that you look interior of. The offensive line Coming

856
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 4: from a power Five. School in texas we've been talking A,

857
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 4: Lot about Michigan oregon now texas and maybe that jumped to.

858
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 4: The pro level not nearly as complicated as maybe once upon.

859
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 4: A time was but here you have someone as a

860
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 4: six round pick crew that can He Talking about hayden

861
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 4: connor Come in and i'm gonna, say you, start but

862
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 4: hey compete for one of. Those, INTERIOR positions.

863
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 5: YEAH i thought i shouwed up on the wrong week

864
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 5: with all. This defensive, chatter, it's like man finally we

865
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 5: get to the. Offensive LINE play but i think When

866
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,720
Speaker 5: we heard mani's comments previously and then just, a second

867
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 5: ago there was a considered effort to establish the, line,

868
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 5: of scrimmage right we understand that's where football games are.

869
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,399
Speaker 5: Won and lost but He Talked about jordan birch being

870
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 5: able to push back and re establish the. Line of

871
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 5: scrimmage same thing on. The offensive side you need as

872
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 5: many guys that are going to put their hand. In

873
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 5: the pile and he did this at a.

874
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 8: Very.

875
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 5: High level right so When You have hayden connor that,

876
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 5: has the versatility but then is also going. To fold

877
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 5: in and again you got him later, In the draft

878
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 5: so the expectations might not be, there to start but

879
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 5: there's no reason a guy can't show, up and, say

880
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 5: oh wow you know what the, value was there or

881
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 5: we found this diamond in the rough because his pedigree

882
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 5: would lead you to believe that he is capable of

883
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,959
Speaker 5: stepping in and competing right when you. Come in here

884
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 5: and that's the Other thing that. Jag talked about competition,

885
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 5: makes people uncomfortable but that's where you're also going to

886
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 5: grow when somebody, is pushing you somebody's trying. To establish,

887
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 5: something and again for an offensive lineman that is going

888
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 5: to come in here and has the ability to play

889
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 5: a couple, of different spots who knows where he's going.

890
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 5: To show up and that's a question mark right now on,

891
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 5: that offensive line and you want to get guys. In

892
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 5: the mix you want to give. Them the, opportunity and oh,

893
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 5: by the way he's going to get better and better

894
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 5: because who he's going against on the daily right training

895
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 5: camp is going to be. Brutal for him and it

896
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 5: doesn't matter if he's, with the, ones.

897
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 3: The twos, or the threes and he's going to get

898
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 3: a whole.

899
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 5: Lot of reps he is constantly going to have to

900
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 5: strap it up and be able to go against these

901
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 5: guys not only in a one, on one setting but

902
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 5: in a team setting where they're going to sit, there

903
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 5: and say what are we? Going to do This Is the.

904
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 5: Arizona cardinals' identity we need to run the football and

905
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 5: establish a. Lot of scrimmage and he is A guy

Speaker 6: To go watch This film Against Kentucky and South carolina And.

915
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,439
Speaker 6: Bama and georgia just the level of competition he went

916
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 6: against and the fact that he started the last. Forty

917
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,759
Speaker 6: plus games so for a. Six round value i've liken

918
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 6: him Before to the rams finding their starting center in

919
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 6: round six a year Ago. Bo limerod arkansas he came

920
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 6: in and beat out a highly, paid FREE agent and

921
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 6: i mean that's the sort of potential Potential that the.

922
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 6: Cardinals have here, he's very mature, but you know it's

923
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 6: not like he's going to be in space PLAYING tackle against,

924
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 6: nfl you. Know pass rushers he's gonna be interior And

925
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,800
Speaker 6: Between a. Paris johnson junior and he. YELLED a froholt

926
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 6: i think it's viable that he makes a run at.
