This is Cleveland Browns Daily on ESPN Cleveland. 3 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: Here are your hosts, Bo Bishop and Nathan Zigura. All right, 4 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 1: let's go live on a Thursday edition of the program. 5 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: The next level is an next We'll see you tomorrow. 6 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's what I'd like to do. Listen. Obviously, 7 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: this isn't a fun show. It's not one that we 8 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: had hoped we would be doing yesterday. And in fact, 9 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: for a while, a long time, we felt that there 10 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: was there were people that we had talked to and 11 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: back channel that you thought that this would not be 12 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: where we are, but we know we are here. The 13 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: NFL has appealed the suspension handed down by Judge Sue L. Robinson. 14 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: You know what I thought was, I mean, there's no 15 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: there's no humor in any of this. The thing that 16 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: I did thought was pretty remarkable. Yesterday is um as 17 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: yesterday afternoon is. The appeal was made public, and then 18 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: I started to see all the usual suspects. From an 19 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: NFL standpoint, from an NFL reporting standpoint, um talking about 20 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: um our sources, the NFL is looking for an indefinite suspension. Well, 21 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: the NFL is appealing to itself, that's right, So why 22 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: do we have to source it? NFL is looking for 23 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: just give it right? I mean, are we gonna really 24 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: go through this thing to where now there's gonna be 25 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: a second independent person looking at this if if you're 26 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: appealing to the NFL, the NFL is appealing to the 27 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: NFL someone appointed by Roger Goodell or Roger Goodell himself, 28 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: although most people think it's not gonna be Goodell. There's 29 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: a couple of women who women judges kind of Lisa 30 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: Rice was one that was named, and then there was 31 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: the war Joe White White who oversaw the Dan Snyder 32 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: stuff with the Washington team. Um, but so we've already 33 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: done this. We had an independent who is actually actually 34 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: a federal judge, and we has made a ruling. So 35 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: this look it stinks. Nobody I think has said, you know, 36 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: he was suspended for six games. They found that he 37 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: had violated the personal conduct policy. This was the punishment, 38 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 1: which she felt was historic for the non violent acts 39 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: that he committed. Now people can debate whether it was 40 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: violent not, that's not what we're trying to debate here. 41 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: I'm certain when we neither he had said the best 42 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: thing with zonests yesterday, I tried to. I thought this 43 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: was the best way, and it's something we've tried to 44 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: do on the show. I stay inside the rulings and 45 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: what has been said, and not go outside with the 46 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: conjecture and everything else around it. Just stay within that 47 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: and let others do the other things. So as you 48 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: were talking, I just thought, you know, that was when 49 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: he said that yesterday. I took note of it. I thought, 50 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: that's that's a really good way to put all of this. 51 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: It is, And again, a federal judge went through the 52 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: facts of the case, felt that yes, he had obviously 53 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: violated the personal conduct policy, that it was egregious in ways, 54 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: and that therefore she was going to hand down what 55 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: she felt was the most significant discipline ever handed out 56 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: by the NFL for a non violent act, and that 57 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: was six games. You're gonna hear now. And part of 58 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: the reason that you had hoped, you know, the NFL 59 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't do it, wasn't it just be kind of it 60 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: would be done. Judges made ruling or abiding by the 61 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: ruling of the judge. That's it. That's obviously not gonna 62 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: happen is now you're going to revisit every decision that 63 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: the NFL has made in the past. They're gonna be 64 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: and some of them look, I would say, relative to 65 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: what's happening right now, look pretty bad in terms of 66 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: the way Ben Roethlisberger was handled, relative to the way 67 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: to Shawn Watson's handled. For what was alleged about each 68 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: of them, It's just an unfortun situation. It's not anything 69 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: I want to talk about, anything you want to talk about. 70 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: It's something that we all wish was was done. He 71 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: is he is in the eyes of the league, violated 72 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: the policy. In the eyes of Judge Robinson, violate the policy. 73 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: Here was the punishment that she thought was appropriate given 74 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: the policy, the c b A that has been collectively 75 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: bargained that six games. That's the punishment. There it is, 76 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: and now we don't know what it's going to be. 77 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: The NFL, right to your point, they wanted indefinitely. So 78 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: here's what I don't understand. If the NFL actually gives 79 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: it to somebody who is outside of the NFL, which 80 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: is what is what you're hearing from, which I don't understand. 81 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: It's already been done. That's happened. Yeah, so it's like 82 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: we didn't like what you said, so now we're gonna 83 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: let somebody else do it. Who we're picking, who is 84 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: going to have marching orders? Of course, what this is 85 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: the outcome is supposed to be. I saw I was 86 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: talking to someone this morning and they said, you know, 87 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: a a second independent set of eyes. I'm thinking to myself, well, no, 88 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: it's not because the first set of eyes were picked 89 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: by both truly independent collectively bargained as a truly independent 90 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: set of eyes. That was Suell Robinson. That's been done. 91 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: So now this is going to be done by the NFL. 92 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: So that's that's not what this is. And to your point, 93 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: marching orders, yeah, I don't And I don't know, guys, 94 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: and I don't know if you have any insight on 95 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: this either. I've been, you know, talking about this for 96 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: much of the morning. I the a timeline. I don't 97 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: understand in terms of what I think. What we do 98 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: know about this process is is the state of facts 99 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: that Sue L. Robinson, her findings are binding. What is 100 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: going to be appealed is the punishment of those findings. 101 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: It's important as we talk about the way that she 102 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: filed um in favor of the NFL in terms of 103 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: breaking the Code of Conduct rules, she also admonished the 104 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: NFL and said, look, you can't rewrite the You can't 105 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: move the goalposts on this without telling the other side. 106 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: You guys collectively bargained this without everybody agreeing to what 107 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: the penalties are this going to be. You can't move 108 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: the gold posts on punishment or how things are viewed 109 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: based on your whims um. So she had that in 110 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: the ruling. That's in the ruling, and that that's something 111 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 1: I think the NFL p A will well what could 112 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: potentially leon, but who in the heck knows in terms 113 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: of a timeline, so you know, in terms of like 114 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 1: is this four five days? Is my understanding is that 115 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: this should all be wrapped up in terms of the 116 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: NFL's decision in this appeal should all be wrapped up 117 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: by within the next ten days, is what was recounted 118 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: to me. So that point, what would be if the 119 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: nfl PA were then too launch a lawsuit and bring 120 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: this into federal court. My understanding from and I've talked 121 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: to a few people about what my understanding is that 122 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: the NFL p A because they did not appeal the 123 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: decision by Sue Robinson that those six games are not 124 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: up for debate at this time, that if the NFL 125 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: increased the suspense in the nflp A then files the 126 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: suit and tries to take it into federal court, that 127 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: any temporary restraining order and you know that would allow 128 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: him to play would still begin with week seven. The 129 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: six games are like, that's locked. That's they're trying to 130 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: stop what would be over and above those six games 131 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: that are handed down by the NFL. And I talked 132 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: to a couple of guys this morning who's feeling on 133 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: this was that if there was the potentially the NFL 134 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: p A should have appealed that initial ruling before the 135 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: deadline at nine o'clock this morning. Now they said Sunday 136 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: that they weren't going to that potentially that was putting 137 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: the cart before the horse a little bit, and they 138 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: should have left that option open so that they could 139 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: have appealed the original findings because now none of that 140 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: can be relitigated and that will be difficult to prove 141 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: now on an appeal in the federal court. I feel 142 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: like the guys, and it's always in sunny in Philadelphia, 143 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: Like I feel like I'm in bird law. We need 144 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: strings and push pins. It's a lot and I'm not 145 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: a lawyer. You're not a lawyer. We've spoken with lawyers. Um, 146 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's wild. And you know, the NFL 147 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: is obviously going to get ultimately what it wants. Will 148 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: that stand up? Now, there's another school of thought some 149 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: other people that I've talked to that the NFL is 150 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: doing this to force a settlement with Deshaun Watson. So 151 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: I've heard this as well, and maybe bump the games 152 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: up to eight games, maybe twelve, whatever it is, with 153 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: a hefty fine, with forced counseling, and then it will 154 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: never have gotten to the you know, the second independent arbitrator, 155 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 1: if there is such a thing, and we will will 156 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: just that's that'll be. It will come to a resolution 157 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: that keeps us out of court. And everybody, you know, 158 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: is unhappy, because not everybody would be happy obviously. So 159 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: this is we're back kind of in the a very 160 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: difficult position obviously, as Cleveland Browns is the Cleveland Browns show, 161 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: this is an independent news shows, Cleven brown show, the 162 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: Browns find themselves I think in a very difficult position. 163 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: As we now, it is unlikely if you take that 164 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: ten day time frame, perhaps you know, perhaps you don't 165 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: know by the time you even go play in Jacksonville. 166 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: Oh what's happening and what does that look like? Because 167 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: I really have to think that if look at six games, 168 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: I feel very confident that the Browns are very confident 169 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: with Jacoby Brissette here. If this down becomes twelve, if 170 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: it becomes the full season, I don't know if that's 171 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: the case, if they're comfortable going the season with just 172 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette, Josh Dobbs and Josh Rosen, I don't know 173 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: the answer to that. My guess is after being out 174 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: there that that you're gonna need somebody else in here. 175 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: I am, Um, this goes to the point you're making, 176 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: because you know, we do the best we can on 177 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: the legalities of all of this and the processes of 178 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: all this and try to paint you the pictures we 179 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: understand it. The football side of it is the other 180 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: thing that's incredibly muddy, Um, because it is. It's pretty 181 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: wild to me. I mean, this wasn't a you were out. 182 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: This was late June when this hearing happened between Watson 183 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: and Suell Robinson like last week of June or second 184 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: to last week of June, I think you're out west 185 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: and and we were like getting bits and pieces of 186 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: how this chestimony was going on the show. It's like 187 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: six weeks ago, man, Like, it's a lot of time 188 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: that was wasted. It seems to get right back to 189 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: where we are, which is, oh, now we're going to 190 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: negotiate again. And so because now they're going to say 191 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: you're because before there was a negotiation where both sides 192 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: had some leverage, Deshaun Watson was saying, Sue Robinson told 193 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: you at the very beginning of this hearing that a 194 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: year is absurd and it's not gonna happen, and so 195 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: he had leverage. Now there isn't leverage on the side 196 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: of Shaun Watson at all. So I don't know why 197 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: they would negotiate. What's the point because there is still 198 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: in court. This has the potential to get ugly in 199 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: a variety of ways, But it's a isn't that even 200 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: a tough needle to thread? For the conversations I had 201 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: this morning with with a couple of different people familiar 202 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: with this stuff, So I even I know, you get 203 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: discovery you could do and it depends where it's tried 204 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: and where you file and all of these things. So 205 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: you know, there was this notion of all, you don't 206 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: want to get one of these NFL owners on the stand. Well, 207 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: it's unlikely that that happens, so which is so Here's 208 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: the thing to me that I have a hard time 209 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: getting my head around is that. And I wonder if 210 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: they felt like it was a trial bloon Ian Rappaport, 211 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: who works for the NFL, was on NFL Network yesterday 212 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: outlining the reasons why they wouldn't appeal, that it would 213 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: keep this Watson story in the news. You've got the 214 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: kick off to the season tonight, the Hall of Fame 215 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: this weekend, and that there was a concern that the 216 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: dirty laundry of owners was going to get aired as 217 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: a result of this going into federal court, that this 218 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: would right. That's that, but that was coming Miam mc 219 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: guests was from the NFL, And I can tell you 220 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: for a fact, and when we were on the area 221 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: yesterday that there were people who are very close to 222 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: the NFL that for a time yesterday were convinced that 223 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: they were not appealing. So party wonders if they said 224 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 1: we're going to float that out there, what's the reaction 225 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: to this? People are outraged, We're appealing. Yeah, I don't know, 226 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, it's it's a fantastic point. I mean, 227 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: it's hard to be It is hard the people who 228 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: are going to lose the most in this right now. 229 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: As we said, there are the Browns fans and Browns fans, 230 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 1: and people are coming after Browns fans. How can you 231 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 1: like they're fans of the team, Like they just want 232 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: a distraction on a Sunday man and they would like 233 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: this team to be good, as we all would, and 234 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: you could feel it is palpable at this seem had 235 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: a great chance to be very good. So this is 236 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: obviously a setback. And we'll see, We'll see how this 237 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: plays out. That's the thing. We're just waiting and waiting 238 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,439 Speaker 1: and waiting and waiting, and now we'll see what happens. Yeah, 239 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: it's um. You are at the you are at the 240 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: whims of the NFL here now and there there's not 241 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: a whole lot of recourse. The thing that like I 242 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: would be the most upset about if I was an 243 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: NFL player or just as a Browns fan, right now, 244 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: how did the NFL p A get itself into this position? 245 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: Why would it not be We're going to use an 246 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: independent arbitrator who is a federal judge that both sides 247 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: agree on and their ruling is binding and final. And 248 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: what world did it make sense to have an appeal 249 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: to the NFL, Like maybe if it would go through 250 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: the actual court, you go to an appellate court. I 251 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: don't even know how that would work, but the fact 252 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: that the final authority, regardless of the outcome. So if 253 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: the NFL gets the outcome it wants from Sue Robinson, 254 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: it's saying cool. If the NFL doesn't get the outcome 255 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: it wants from Sue Robinson, it then says we're gonna 256 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: appeal to ourselves and get the outcome we want. Who 257 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: signed that? And then from the NFL p A side, 258 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: it's if we get the outcome we want from Sue Robinson, 259 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: we're like, cool, we're not gonna appeal. But if we don't, 260 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 1: that means she sided with the NFL, and or p 261 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: our only ability to appeal is to the NFL. To 262 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: the NFL. I don't know, I don't know. I'm just 263 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: curious who he appoints. It doesn't matter, though I don't. 264 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it matters either. I mean, just you 265 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: and I speaking frankly here, I don't think it matters 266 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: that the NFL can do whatever they want. The NFL 267 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: who do whatever it wants. Here, Roger Gondel can do 268 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: whatever it wants, whatever he wants. If he wants you 269 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: to be indefinite, then done. That's yesterday. When all that's Oh, 270 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: the sources say that they wanted to be, then make 271 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: it indefinite. Yeah, that's right there, you're seeking what do 272 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: you mean you are the one who are gonna levy it. 273 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: If you wanted to be indefinite, to make it indefinite. 274 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: That's it. It's done. It's back to ned Stark if 275 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: you get a passons so you seeking it like ned 276 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: Stark in winter Fell was not. You know, ned starts 277 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: seeking the death penalty for so and so we'll see 278 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: what happens when he when he appoints a council to 279 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: decide whether or not that. But ned Stark wants it 280 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: well and winter Fell if that start says you're gaining 281 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: that's that's what you're getting off the head. That's it 282 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: right the end. Yeah, so there you go. That's what 283 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: it is. You look Look, you look great in that sweatshirt. 284 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: It's a great looking hoodie. Awards because I was sad 285 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: and this makes me happy, makes me happy, to makes 286 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: me happy. You have win for both of us. Mind's 287 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: under the mine, under here, somewhere listen under a desk. 288 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: You are held in high regard by Mr Howard. So 289 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: we could we can we when next time we get 290 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: him in here, we'll get let's get him on, get 291 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: you on the program, see if we can work that out. Um. 292 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: In terms of and again, we're you're doing, we are 293 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: doing two shows. And as as someone covering the team, 294 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: you're doing, you're doing, you're on two beats as a 295 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: fan of this team. It's like there are two different 296 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: things that you're doing. You are rooting for your team, 297 00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: and you're seeing the incredible things that we're seeing out 298 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: on the practice field. I mean, and then and you 299 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: you're also handling you know this very very heavy lifting 300 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to the legalities of stuff. Um, so, 301 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: so you're doing both of those things. So just from 302 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: a practical purpose of where we are, the schedule, from 303 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: the reason that we're here in in Barria is because 304 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: there is no practice today. They're off. They'll practice Friday, 305 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: they'll practice Saturday, they'll practice Sunday, they'll be off on Monday, 306 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: and then they'll be back in front of fans next Tuesday, 307 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: which is the final open practice before you guys leave 308 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: for Jacksonville on Wednesday. By the way, when did we 309 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: move to South Florida with all this humidity? You should 310 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: have saw the football practice last night with the fifth 311 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: graders in the seat. It's probably not a lot of happiness, 312 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of complaining, fogging advisors. There was an advisors. 313 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: There was one kid an advisor and it felt like 314 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: he was going to suffocate. I'm like, dude, I know 315 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: they look cool, but this ain't it. Brother. I was 316 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: driving through our neighborhood and like everybody's got nice good windows, 317 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: like it's it's a it's a solid neighborhood. Everything's fo 318 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: like it looks like cor and like it's a weird 319 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: bizarre what's going on it? Oh? It really is. It's 320 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: so humid, so so humid. Um. All right there. There 321 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: has been some stuff to to talk about on the field. 322 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: We will get into that as we go along.

Some of the really insightful information from 333 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: our good buddy chat O'Shea or Wide Receivers Coach. We've 334 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: talked a lot about this position room. There's been some 335 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: breakout stars in this room. Here's coach on some of 336 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: those issues. It looks like a couple of young guys 337 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 1: have taken advantage of extra reps your injury situation. Yeah, 338 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: would any Grant, Jack Grant I can. I mean, we've 339 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: had some guys take advantage of the opportunities that they've 340 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: had here recently, and they've made the most of their opportunities. 341 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: And that's what we told them. On day one is 342 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a time where you're gonna have an 343 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: opportunity to go out there and show this team that 344 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: we can trust it and you'll be dependable as an 345 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: offensive player. And we've had a couple of guys in 346 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: Jachem Grant and Mike Woods who have made the most 347 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: of their opportunities, um, And I think they made the 348 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: most out there of their opportunities because they work hard 349 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 1: and they go out there and they perform and try 350 00:18:58,480 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: to do the things that we asked them to do. 351 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 1: So certainly that's been a very positive thing for our 352 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 1: offense that they've done that. You know what happened in 353 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: the shorts last year when his rookie camp started slowly 354 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: because I'm not being able to deal with David Bell 355 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: get a catch up to a couple couple how much 356 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: of a set there because just not being out there beforegem. Yeah, 357 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 1: I think any any time you're not on the field, UM, 358 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: it presents a different type of challenge, but no different 359 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: challenge and we have when you're presented with other things. 360 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: So I think that we do enough with him from 361 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: a walk through standpoint, but we're very uh intense in 362 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,959 Speaker 1: the meeting room setting with him, So we spend as 363 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: much time as we can to make sure we kind 364 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: of close that gap to where he when he does 365 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: get on the field, that he's in a position to 366 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: know the information and go out there and try to 367 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: execute it. Obviously, we want as many players on the 368 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: field as we can. If you're available to us, you 369 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: have a chance to improve. But he certainly can improve, 370 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: although not being out there and Michael Woods wouldn't. What 371 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: have you seen him in you like wol you see 372 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: here coming out of Yeah, I start with the non 373 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: physical traits with him. His his character traits are very strong. 374 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 1: He's got tremendous work ethic. Uh, he's very smart, he's mature, 375 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: he's taken the coaching uh. Certainly for a rookie. I 376 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: think he's been very professional in his development and then 377 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: his skill set. It's been great to see him go 378 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 1: out there with the opportunities that he's had here recently 379 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: make up most of those opportunities because of his ability 380 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: to play different positions. You know, we ask our players 381 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: if you can play in multiple roles, you increase our 382 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: role for the team and you increase your chances of 383 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: going out there and having individual success, and certainly he's 384 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: done that because he has the position flexibility mentally to 385 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: play multiple positions. He's made the most of his opportunities. 386 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: And it's been very positive with Mike Woods so far, 387 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: really taking a big step, you know, nope, o'dellia to 388 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: be that second. Well, what's been that key from? Yeah? 389 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,880 Speaker 1: I think Donovan. And I've said this over the last 390 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: couple of years working with Donovan. He is such a 391 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: a great guy and he brings so much to the 392 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: table as far as his work ethic and his his 393 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: leadership within the group. Um. He takes coaching very well. 394 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: He tries to be detail oriented. He had a great 395 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: off season this year working with our strength and conditioning staff, 396 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: which I think does a tremendous job with our players 397 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: in general. But they did a great job with Donovan 398 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: of making sure that he was in ideal shape and strength, 399 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: in a physical condition to go out there and you know, 400 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: do the things that he can do force and he's 401 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: also a guy that can play in multiple spots. And 402 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: been very pleased with Donovan this year so far. Such 403 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: a good runner, and he specifically mentioned having success. Yeah, 404 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: I think uh Mari, he has had success over his career, 405 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: and he's an accomplished route runner and and I think 406 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 1: his success on double move type routes is because he 407 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: runs the first route really well. So if you're a 408 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: great speed out runner, and they have to honor and 409 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: respect that, if you're good at that, then you should 410 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: be able to compliment that and what I say as 411 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: a punch and CounterPunch. So I think that's what's given 412 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: him the ability to be a double route runner, is 413 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: that he can run that first route really well. What 414 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: impact is he had within that room and you know, 415 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: on that appreciating group, he just he doesn't seem to 416 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: be a flashy type of personality or flashy guy, just 417 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: kind of goes about his business. But just three to perspective, 418 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: what impact is he hadn't? Yeah, Mary Cooper has had 419 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: an impact without saying a word. And that's how I 420 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: think it really to sum it up best. He goes 421 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: about his business every day, He uh works extremely hard. 422 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: He's a great example to not only our young players 423 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: in the receiver room, but to our team and and 424 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: I really respect and admire the way he works every day. Certainly, 425 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: I have watched him from AFAR for several years and 426 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: always uh loved him as a receiver and now that 427 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: I had a chance to work with the individual, it's 428 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 1: been awesome And can't again say enough great things about 429 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: Amory Cooper and what he's brought not only to our 430 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: receiver group but to the team jacking you address the 431 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: all of the challenges that we faced at the position. 432 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: It seems like everything can look out there. You're losing 433 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: another guy and you see about Marie the other day 434 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: and even Donovan when you've got an a little strum 435 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: win with Barton who troping me probably like when you've 436 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: brought them that, But can you just address what you've 437 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: gone through this samyament. Yeah. And when I when I 438 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: step in front of the group and we have our meetings, 439 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: when I talk about challenges, we kind of talk about opportunities. 440 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: We flipped flip that word and truly it is an 441 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: opportunity for some of these other guys to show us 442 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 1: what they have and uh, although it might be a 443 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: setback for the individual that suffers the injury, for whether 444 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: it's short term or long term, what a great opportunity 445 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: that is for guys like Mike Woods, Um, Mike Harley, 446 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: some of these young rookies to get an opportunity to 447 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: go out there and show us that all the work 448 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: we've done in the meetings and we've had on the 449 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: field individually now can go into a huddle and they 450 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: can again show us that they deserve to be here 451 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: as Cleveland Brown. The thing for Meal going into the 452 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 1: all of wame, I think you can go to kind 453 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: of getters. Yeah, yeah, I'm glad you brought him up. 454 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I I'm not standing in front of you 455 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: guys right now. This is my twentieth year in the NFL. 456 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: If it wasn't for Dick Vermeal, and I'm so proud 457 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: of him and his accomplishment that he's going into the 458 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame. And there's so many lessons 459 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: I learned as a coach. I would say the foundation 460 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: of what I am as a coach is probably a 461 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: lot of what he was and what he taught me. 462 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: And the one thing that that I'll always cherished that 463 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,919 Speaker 1: I learned from him is the importance of the relationships 464 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: of the players and the coaches and how important that 465 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: is and how special that is. And he's somebody I 466 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: learned a great deal from. I've learned loyalty, I learned 467 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: how to operate about your business and work very extremely hard. 468 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: There's a great story. I was a special team's assistant 469 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: when I was working for him and working with the linebackers, 470 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: and it's when we were still on the paper photo copies. 471 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 1: We weren't on the iPads like we are now, and 472 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 1: we had a copy jam. And he was a very 473 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 1: hard worker. He'd be there all hours of the night 474 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: and him and I were the only two in the building. 475 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: It was one o'clock in the morning and I was 476 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 1: trying to fix a paper jam. I was on my knees. 477 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: He walked past me, said, what's going on here? I 478 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: was actually kicking the machine. He told me to calm 479 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: down and have some poise. He got down on his 480 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: knees and he fixed that copy jam with me. And 481 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 1: to me, that's always something that is stuck with me 482 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 1: of how humble of a leader he was. Uh, what 483 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: a great worker, and what a great mentor he's been. 484 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: I still stay in communication with him quite often, and 485 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: I mean I get goose bumps thinking about his honor 486 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,959 Speaker 1: that he's going to receive this weekend in the Hall 487 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: of Fame. I could stuff from Coach there. His room 488 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: is it's it's a room that needs to get healthy 489 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: for starters. Uh, that's the first part of it. You 490 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: need to start seeing Anthony Schwartz on the football field. 491 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: You need to start seeing Dave Bell in football field. Yeah, 492 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: Mike Woods, who had been the guy that had capitalized 493 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: on their absences, wasn't unable to finish practice yesterday. And 494 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: we do not have an update. I missed that the 495 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: rest of it, So I didn't even see that at 496 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: the end that that happened. There was things, other things. 497 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: Yet there was other stuff about the surreal nature of 498 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: the fact, not that because I know that we don't 499 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: want to go back to the surreal nature of the 500 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: fact that he found out on our practice field on 501 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 1: camera with the NFL network, Like in in the middle 502 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: of a Steve White hit. Wait a second, he heard 503 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: from Steve White. Now he didn't hear from while see 504 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: why she is doing a hit here? Remember he was here? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 505 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: they're like doing a hit. And that's when de Sean. 506 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: You could see Sean being told on the field what 507 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 1: was what had what it had that they had appealed, 508 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: and then it just so happened. There was a very 509 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: high ranking person from the NFL p A here, I 510 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: don't know because of the hall of fame, because of 511 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: the hall of fame, and so and then as why 512 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 1: she's just doing the hit, They're like showing that guy 513 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,479 Speaker 1: go talk to Watson as he's going in the locker room, 514 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: and Deshaun Watson, to his credit, when you would be 515 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: obviously in I'm sure he was not pleased, got the news, 516 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: processed it for a second, and then when and it 517 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: was military appreciation, and spent his time going everybody in 518 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: that line with the military to thank them for their 519 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: service and for being there, and then and then made 520 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: his way in which it would have been easy to 521 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: be like, you know, a like I'm out, I'm gonna 522 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: go in. Yeah, that's what I was saying when we 523 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: were in the first saying we were talking about it, 524 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: like the whole timing of this feels like this could 525 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: have been done much so, much long ago. Yes, it 526 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: should have been wrapped up at the end of ship, 527 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: been wrapped up, honestly, goodness, it should have been wrapped 528 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: up before he was traded. Correct, as soon as the 529 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: grand jury information was had that once that happens, then 530 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: here's the picked up and where you go. Here's the thing, 531 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: and this is not to be you know, obviously we're 532 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: with the Browns. We are pro I'm a Brown's employee, 533 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 1: pro Browns in this situation. And the Browns traded for 534 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: Shaun Watson after doing their own their own investigation, which 535 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 1: they felt very comfortable that a he could work here 536 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: and right now, what we're really talking about as an 537 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: individual's right to work in their chosen profession his current employer, 538 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: even though it's one of the umbrella of the national 539 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: football leage, but his current employers a clearing rounds. They've 540 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: investigated him and they felt comfortable with him playing, which 541 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: is again neither here nor there. But the fact is 542 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: all of these things that are alleged to have happened 543 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: happened while he was a Houston Texans. On some level, 544 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: the Texans were implicated in it, as there were civil 545 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: suits brought against the Texans, all by the same lawyer, 546 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: Tony Buzby that they settled. As of now, it does 547 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: there has not been any type of a punishment met 548 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: it out to the Houston Texans who now got the 549 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: trade to Shaun Watson, have all of our first round 550 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: picks and in some ways you would say, given the 551 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: scope of what it feels like it's happening right now, Jehan, 552 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: their smell like roses, and all of this happened while 553 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: he was under their employee and not the Browns employee, 554 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: which I don't feel right, no, no, but I yeah, 555 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: I don't know that they I don't think that Roger 556 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: Goodell cares clearly about any of that. You know, it's 557 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: been it's a fantastic point. It's a fantastic point. And 558 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: who knows, but it seems like any time that that. 559 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: That's the hard part about this right now is you know, 560 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: you hear from coach and we watched practice this week, 561 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: and we'll watch practice tomorrow, will be out there in 562 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: tomorrow and there are noteworthy things, but it's all tabled 563 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: or couched by But what about this and it's all 564 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: you all view it in the context of this receiving core. 565 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: For example, let's have a football conversation for a second. 566 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: We had this conversation yesterday on the show. This receiving 567 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: corps is plenty good with the Shawn Watson as the quarterback. 568 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: It's a very different receiving core if Deshaun Watson is 569 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: not the quarterback. R. Cooper remains a one. We were 570 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: like a lot of the guys in the room, sure, 571 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: but they really need to get healthy. And much of 572 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: it was bet on the idea that they would be 573 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: elevating by having Deshaun Watson throw them the football. We're 574 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:13,959 Speaker 1: talking about what look what he did with Kiki Kurray 575 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: and all of the things. And now you've got a 576 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: situation where in camp two days ago you didn't have 577 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: three of your top four. But Amory Cooper came right 578 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: back in a nice day yesterday. So you've got a Marie. 579 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: Who's your one. You've done in people's other two. So 580 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you're two most important 581 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: guys have been here the whole time. That's good. Three 582 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: and four, depending on how you wanted to order them, 583 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: would be balance Schwarts. You haven't seen either one of 584 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: them in camp. We saw Swarts for a hot second. 585 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: That's it. The guy who really was your next best 586 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: receiver thus far, and really it has been your third 587 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: best receiver in camp is Mike Woods, and now we 588 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: know that he was unable to finish practice, and you 589 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: fear that it could be something more significant. Right, if 590 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: it's a muscle, if it's you know whatever, because remember 591 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: he was battling muscle soft tissue injuries which kept him 592 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: out of pretty much although t as then he was 593 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: in the mini camp, so he's already had limited time. 594 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: But he's flashed, there's no doubt about. But now I 595 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: we don't know when we'll see. Hopefully it's tomorrow. Hopefully 596 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't. Hopefully this isn't scores, but we'll find out. 597 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: Then You've got Felton and Grant to our have had 598 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: nice camp since you came. Grants, you know, got over 599 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: a thousand years receiving in his career, you know, five 600 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: over five hudd the last two seasons with three touchdowns. 601 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: But he's not an ever down wide receiver for you. 602 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: He's your return guy, and he's gonna be a guy 603 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: that you're gonna put a package of plays in for. 604 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: And that's kind of how Demetric Felton feels. You go 605 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: and you look at who's out there who can still 606 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: come in and produce for this football team. There's Will Fuller. 607 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: But again the issue is right now, health in our 608 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: root in our wide receiver, and he has never stayed healthy. 609 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: DeShawn Jackson, does he still have anything left. There's clearly 610 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: some debate as to whether t Y Hilton has anything 611 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: left or if even wants to play in the NFL, 612 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: And you're just making connected that's the guy who at 613 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: least played with Kobe were said Imanuel Sanders might actually 614 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: be the most complete receiver available to you. But are 615 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: you trying to bring somebody else in at this point 616 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: because in early camp you're not healthy when the expectation 617 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: is both mel and Schwartz are gonna be fine for 618 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: a week one, But do you need to if you're 619 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: not gonna have Watson for at least six games, do 620 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: you need do you feel the need to elevate overall 621 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: your receiving corps? And I don't know the answer to that, 622 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: that's not that's not something you know for me to decide. 623 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: But what I will say is the Browns are fortunate 624 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: to have Chad O'shay that we just heard, because Chad 625 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: O'shay has everywhere he's gone consistently gotten the best out 626 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: of the talent that is in his room. Because he is, 627 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: if not the best, one of the best wide receiver 628 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: coaches in the NFL, and we're very lucky to have 629 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: him here. So he that he helps the situation. Again, 630 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: he can't go out and play, not that you would 631 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: want him do you want to coach, but there's only 632 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: so much that can be done. And this becomes now 633 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: a concerned Now on the flip side, the Browns in 634 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: a situation where they are going to if without Watson, 635 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: imagine we're gonna run an offense. It's more will alert 636 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: to the offense that we have seen in the past. 637 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: So there will be the twelve personnel where you've got 638 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: your two tight ends. You've got Harrison Bryan, You've got 639 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: David and Jokus who are going to help. You've got 640 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: you still got Nick Chubb, you still have Kareem Hunt 641 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: Deerness Johnson to carry the load running the football. You've 642 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: got a quarterback into cover set who can operate that 643 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: play action, that boot game. We just probably won't be 644 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: that slinging around the yard type of a team. And 645 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: that would be the case too, by the way, regardless 646 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: of who's playing quarterback for this team, of the available 647 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: potential options, even getting like way out there and talking 648 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: to the Jimmy GE's the world, Jim and she's not 649 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: a no stand back there and throw it fifty times 650 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 1: a game, shotgun quarterback at all. So that's you have 651 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: that with Watson, you don't have that without Watson, and 652 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: that's fine. We can be a very successful offense, and 653 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: I think we're a team that is going to be 654 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: carried in large part by our ground game and our defense. Anyway, 655 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: our defense is elite. I'm gonna tell you right now. 656 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: I think we have the best secondary in the NFL. 657 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: I think we may have the fastest linebacking core in 658 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: the NFL. And we've got the best edge rush or 659 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: close to in the conversation tandem in the NFL. So 660 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: we there's still a lot to be excited about with 661 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: this football team, regardless of what the outcomes are here 662 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: with Deshaun Watson. But obviously getting to be out there 663 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: and see it, you realize that this is he is 664 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: unlike everything else and anybody else we've had played the 665 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: position here otto you know, Brian's type was an m 666 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: v P and he's obviously Bernie was tremendous, but he's 667 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: on a he's he is a guy that is going 668 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: to be considered in the top quarterbacks in the league period. 669 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: So that's that all of it is kind of tabled 670 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: by that, So you have to give view things to 671 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: two different spectrums all the time.

In the three days that we've done 709 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: the show Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, every single day there has 710 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: been a Nick Chubb run that has literally taken my 711 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: breath away while we're on the air, because he's moving 712 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 1: at a different speed than other human beings. Right, Al, 713 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 1: it's a blur. I mean I can I'll put it 714 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: on right now while we're talking and watch the tape 715 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:55,800 Speaker 1: of it. But that's what the thing that goes makes me. 716 00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: It's insane to watch he's faster than the tape refresh 717 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: rate because and he is. It's just it's a it's absurd. 718 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: And he's not the only one. Jerome Ford had one 719 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 1: yesterday where he was cooking. But Nick Chubb looks if 720 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,919 Speaker 1: he needs to, he looks ready to carry the load 721 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: if that is what is required for this football team 722 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: to get it done. Nick Chubb looks ready and up 723 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: to the task to do just that. We got we 724 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 1: have mused little traveling music. Yeah, exciting, it's very very exciting. 725 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 1: So you got, good Lord, you got you got Nick 726 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: Chubb as a blur. UM in terms of some of 727 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 1: the other people who have jumped out to you, Um, 728 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 1: and well, let's do position battles first. Let's circle back 729 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: to defensive tackle. You mentioned Jordan Elliott on the show yesterday, UM, 730 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: and they seemed to be raving about George Elliott and 731 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 1: making a bit of a jump. Who else in that 732 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: room has made an impression early. Well, Tavin Bryant's a 733 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: guy that he flashes. And I think the hope is 734 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 1: that if Taven Bryan can get more consistent, that the 735 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: Browns really have gotten themselves free agent gem. Uh he is. 736 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: He has had some dominant plays yesterday to close out practice. Uh, 737 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: they were down in the goal line area and the 738 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 1: first team offense was on there on on two consecutive plays. 739 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: He was in the backfield and was was a was 740 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 1: a play wrecker. And so the that's what they're looking 741 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 1: for out of Taven Brian, that's what they think he 742 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: could do. Remember, this guy's a first round talent. I've 743 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,280 Speaker 1: I've been doing my research getting ready for the season. 744 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 1: One of the things that I found, which is always 745 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: a lot of fun as you get into ah, you 746 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: know college nicknames, and and he was nickname while he 747 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: was at the University of Florida was the Wyoming wild Man, 748 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: as he hails from Wyoming, the great state of Wyoming. 749 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: And uh there, yeah, exactly, And there's one right there 750 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 1: where he I'm watching right now, and that was actually 751 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: him working on Wyatt Teller, who was a pro bowler, 752 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 1: all pro right guard and was able to get into 753 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 1: the backfield. And so that's a guy that they're counting on. 754 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: Perion I'm told has been you know, he is unbelievably talent, 755 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: did unbelievably athletic, unbelievably strong. It's a matter for him 756 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 1: of mastering the defense's responsibilities within that defense and and 757 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: bringing that to the field. And if he can do that, 758 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: they're very excited about period. But I think the two 759 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: guys we thought we were gonna start are gonna start. 760 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: Tommy Toby has put some good weight back on. He's 761 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: been able to get his hands on the ball a 762 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: few times, so he's had He's had a good camp. 763 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: But really it's it's Elliott and Brian and what we 764 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 1: have not really seen yet. And it's early because there's 765 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 1: still in the kind of the initial installs of the 766 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: defenses Alex right inside him. I talked to him about 767 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: that yesterday right interview. But that is something that I 768 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: know is in the works at some point here for 769 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 1: the Browns. And I think the Browns are also looking 770 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: into some some different packages where at times you'll see 771 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Miles and Clowney that's it. And then 772 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,960 Speaker 1: you can go Miles Clowney with let's call it j 773 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 1: Ok Phillips and TOCKI and a blitz as I'll stand 774 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 1: up blitzers, and then behind that you can have your 775 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 1: three corners, three safeties and just have kind of this 776 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 1: vast unit where you're gonna be pressures from a lot 777 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: of different spots they have and that's when you watch it. 778 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,800 Speaker 1: I mean, you have the ability to do that. You 779 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 1: have so many supreme athletes on the defensive side of 780 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: the ball in the back seven that yeah, and then 781 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: the other thing about it is Miles and Jadavion are 782 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 1: such havoc reakers that that's how that that's how you 783 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: do that. You can do that with this type of personnel, 784 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: And that jumps out, how's Nick Carris doing at center? 785 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: Carris has been great? And that's why it's one of 786 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: those things. When we signed Ethan Postic, who has you know, 787 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: made numerous starts in the NFL for the Seattle Seahawks, 788 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people initially thought that that 789 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,399 Speaker 1: was going to be a competition, like, yeah, we liken 790 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: the Carriss, but you know, Ethan Postics started forty games. 791 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: He's you know, second around pick back in two thousand 792 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: seventeen for the Seahawks, and it is not a competition. 793 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: He is the starter and the returns have been very 794 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: good on him, which is what they expected. They expected 795 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 1: him to be good, and he is good. So that 796 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: I feel great about our offensive line. I think everybody 797 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 1: feels great about our offensive line. Never mind me, was 798 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: it the line in old school? I think everybody knows. 799 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 1: You had a great time, Frank, So it's awesome. It's awesome. 800 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: Ricky Bobby was one of you. Pick it on. I 801 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: picked it up where he was the dad just threw 802 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 1: him in the car with the live cougar. I don't 803 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 1: even made sure this is safe. Yes, so great. I 804 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 1: hadn't seen that the very very no not safe. Look, folks, 805 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: really really talented football team. There really aren't any questions 806 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,240 Speaker 1: outside of really truly, the only questions are at receiver, 807 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: and that's just health. That's health related right now, and 808 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: then depth and how it's gonna play out of defense. 809 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: Everything else is locked in, the right linebackers are locked 810 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: in in terms of you got what you four starters 811 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: is what we were talking about yesterday. Four starters there, Uh, 812 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 1: your secondary is loaded. I mean it might be you 813 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: walk around that with a lot pride coach, that's you're 814 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: walking around maybe in the league. I think it's in. 815 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: It's in. It's in play. I mean when you talk 816 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: about when I was looking at at the safety situation 817 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: with Johnson, Ronnie looks good and then Delpot looks like 818 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: he's gonna take a leap like that's just that's crazy. 819 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 1: That's yeah, you are loaded there. And the guy that 820 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,319 Speaker 1: has been really exciting and I did a two minute 821 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,439 Speaker 1: drill with him yesterday as he walked off the field, 822 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 1: I'd recommend checking out his His Brown's breakdown is m 823 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 1: J Emerson and you know you go, and there's a 824 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: rep yesterday from yesterday's practice where he is one on 825 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: one with a Marie Cooper at the bottom of of 826 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: of the field the bottom of the screen if you're 827 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: watching it on TV. And he is just absolutely in 828 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: the hip pocket of a MARII Cooper for the entirety 829 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,800 Speaker 1: of the route. And his confidence is big. He a 830 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 1: desire to compete is I'm told, you know huge. And 831 00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: this is a fourth down drill and he's got one 832 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: on with Marie Cooper and that's the direction Watson wants 833 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 1: to go and m j Emerson is just right there. 834 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 1: He is writing that hip pocket. He is sticky in 835 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: coverage and and he's he's made an impression. And and 836 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 1: at this point right now, is he ready to push 837 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: Greedy Williams? I don't know. Greedy was excellent last year. 838 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: As we said, he give up only one play of 839 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: more than forty yards all season long. He gave one 840 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: touchdown all year long. Greedy Williams played very very well 841 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: and is healthy and and the Browns are excited about him. 842 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,399 Speaker 1: A J. Green's had a good camp as well. Were 843 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,760 Speaker 1: it is a loaded cornerback room. But the Browns field 844 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 1: now that they got him here, they're very pleased and 845 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 1: obviously want to get into games and you want to 846 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 1: see little more. But they have been very pleased with 847 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: m j Emerson and what he has been able to do. 848 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 1: By the way, I was wrong about that Greed did 849 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: not allow a forty yard pass last year, and there 850 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: it was one. One thing was one touchdown. No forty 851 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,239 Speaker 1: yard passes on the season was really good. I go 852 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 1: back to this stat first of all, the guy six 853 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 1: to talk about m j Emerson's got long arms thirty 854 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 1: three and Charms. He was targeted just thirt cent of 855 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: his coverage snaps in the SEC. Like in the SEC, 856 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: you're playing people who are going to be playing in 857 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: the NFL for the most part, right, And I don't 858 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 1: imagine unless there's a healthy dose of just straight up 859 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 1: known respect for your ability to play the position, you're 860 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: not given somebody the Dion Sanders treatment. Well, no, and 861 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 1: he you also would he Let's remember he played at 862 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: Mississippi State, which continues to be in the SEC West. 863 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: So you've been doing so against Alabama, which had the 864 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy winner and one of the most people locking up, 865 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,800 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams. Yeah, so you had you had that, you 866 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: had Old miss who had Matt Corrall, who threw it 867 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 1: around a ton was in that uh, Texas A and 868 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 1: m whichever quarterback they had, especially as the season went along. 869 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't remember when Missisippi State State played them, but 870 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 1: they but as a season went along, they were very 871 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 1: comfortable throwing it. L s U has always been. They 872 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: weren't good last year, but they'll they'll throw the ball around. 873 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: So No, your point is well made that he played 874 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: in the toughest division in college football, with some of 875 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: the most prolific offenses in the sport, and to not 876 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 1: be challenged just pretty wild. It is wild. He stands 877 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: out though. You look at you see him in that 878 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: twenty three, and he just looks the part like a 879 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 1: good number. Yeah, yeah, you good look at him. Yeah 880 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: it is. It's a good look at number. And he's 881 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 1: a he's a bigger, lanky I mean again, he looks 882 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: a lot like a lot of the rest of those guys. 883 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: We have a lot of guys six two, six three, 884 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,440 Speaker 1: eighteen thirty two eight, like, we have a lot of 885 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: guys that are kind of in that body type and 886 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 1: they all kind of look the same. One of the 887 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: things that they like about him the most, and this 888 00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: is a guy when he was do a little Chris 889 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 1: Collinsworth here and now here's a guy. Here's a guy. 890 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,760 Speaker 1: So his dB coach in Mississippi State was Darryl McBeth. 891 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 1: One of the other dB another assistant dB coach at 892 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: Mississippiate while he was there was Terrell Buckley, Oh Florida State, 893 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: former first round pick cornerback. And so he's got obviously 894 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 1: he's been taught by some very very good players in 895 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 1: Tarle Buckley, who was a first round pick, and they 896 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: just said he is a sponge like he just wants 897 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 1: to be good. He wants to compete and is don't 898 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: doing everything. And I'm told he has taken so quickly 899 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: to the changes in the technique that Brandon Lynch and 900 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,399 Speaker 1: Jeff Howard are asking him to play. That is making 901 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 1: him more effective. And he's playing doing that with confidence. 902 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 1: And it was funny. I asked him after practice and 903 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: you can get the two minute roll on our YouTube 904 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 1: page YouTube dot com slash Browns.

Um, And 978 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,280 Speaker 1: you think about the way you're taught to play those positions, 979 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 1: and then the way that Joe took those little bricks 980 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 1: and then just every year kept adding another layer to 981 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 1: the point of playing it to the level of you know, 982 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,320 Speaker 1: the Picasso of the offensive line is what he was. 983 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,840 Speaker 1: I mean, he's on a list Tim and Munos and 984 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 1: a couple of others. Is the greatest offensive lineman in 985 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 1: the history of the lake. Yeah, it's it's he is, 986 00:50:57,680 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 1: It's wild and it was funny. At the end of 987 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 1: our work out today, he's like, you know, like he's like, 988 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: thanks for pushing me big Ze. I'm like, and I 989 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,279 Speaker 1: think he meant I think he actually meant it. I 990 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 1: think it's probably just like here's look you everything you do, 991 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,279 Speaker 1: you do it at the best level that you can 992 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 1: do it at. There's no That's something that I appreciate 993 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: a great deal, Um, is that when you go into something, 994 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: you go into it all in. And so I'm sure 995 00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:28,280 Speaker 1: that you being there with him it's comforting. It certainly 996 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 1: helped me because this is the first time, like a 997 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:32,359 Speaker 1: part of the program we were doing on day three 998 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:37,800 Speaker 1: features bench and you go ten get some music for it. 999 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 1: Why not, it's exciting. He goes ten and then every 1000 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: minute on the minute. So first set is ten, that's 1001 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 1: just the one, then five, then three, then two, then 1002 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 1: one than one. Benching your max without a spot or 1003 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 1: is hard because you can only you can only really 1004 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 1: do what you know you can handle right, otherwise there 1005 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 1: could be big problems. And so it was cool having 1006 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 1: him there today and I was able to do something 1007 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 1: that was exciting, and like I said, look, I try 1008 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: to stay and I was pretty close to it, but 1009 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: I tried to stay it about six of him and 1010 00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: that makes me feel really good. And so I was. 1011 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,719 Speaker 1: I was in that realm. But I mean three five, 1012 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 1: it's just a it's a monster number. Just watch him 1013 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 1: throw up. And then we did a really cool thing 1014 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 1: which I don't get to do without him, which is 1015 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: you put really heavy weight on, like your max heavy 1016 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: weight on, and you do a three second negative, so 1017 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: you're just trying to bring it all the way down 1018 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 1: for three seconds hold and then you need somebody to 1019 00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:32,879 Speaker 1: pull them hard back up because you're gas Three sets 1020 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: of three of that and that was my chest. Tomorrow 1021 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 1: is gonna be on fire. But it's a blast man. 1022 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,800 Speaker 1: The best man's tomorrow. Yeah, here's the crazy thing.

I'm actually having fun talking 1103 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:26,880 Speaker 1: nonsense with the music playing, Like I kind of need 1104 00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 1: a little nonsense to be honest, it's do, it's do. 1105 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: It's definitely do. Um are there when you when you 1106 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 1: talk about the end bottom of the roster, give me 1107 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 1: a five? I mean the music is playing. I feel 1108 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,839 Speaker 1: like we should justify the music being played. We didn't 1109 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: ask for the music. No, I know, we've it's been 1110 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 1: on for like forty five minutes. I kind of think 1111 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 1: it's so like the last half of the second hour 1112 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 1: two like I kind of saying it. I think it's 1113 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: kind of a funny bit that we're just just a 1114 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:53,400 Speaker 1: bit we're just ignoring it or ignoring the music. All right, 1115 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:55,399 Speaker 1: here's what here's what I'll saying. Just give me, give 1116 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:59,879 Speaker 1: me roster break roster breakdown. So quarterback quarterback, you're gonna 1117 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,760 Speaker 1: Harry two into the season, and obviously you it's probably 1118 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:06,880 Speaker 1: gonna be Brisset and someone else. I don't know if 1119 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 1: it ends up being Josh Jobs or Josh Rosen. Josh. 1120 00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:10,880 Speaker 1: They've they've got to pick up their level of performance 1121 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 1: at camp right now. Although as I talked to one 1122 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:20,120 Speaker 1: personnel executive and they said, well, third and fourth quarter Like, 1123 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: where are the good third and fourth quarterbacks at? Because 1124 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:30,880 Speaker 1: that's in reality what they are. They don't exist, so um, 1125 00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 1: I mean that's why, that's why I like, if you 1126 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 1: think about Chase, Daniel and McCoy, like, these guys can 1127 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 1: hang around forever because they're like competent, competent right exactly 1128 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 1: the word they're competent. So that's Corbett running back. I 1129 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 1: think you're set your four year four now. Could somebody 1130 00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 1: come calling and say, hey, a devastating injury to a 1131 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:51,520 Speaker 1: guy who was going to be a star or something 1132 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 1: like that. Could somebody kind of calling and try to 1133 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 1: get into our depth. Possibly, But provided there is no 1134 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:59,919 Speaker 1: move of that nature, you're gonna have. You're you're gonna 1135 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 1: Chub Hunt Johnson and Jerome Ford wide receiver. Our top 1136 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 1: four are our top four, and that's a Mari Cooper, Donovan, 1137 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 1: People's Jones, David Bell, Anthony Schwartz, Jachim Grant counts in 1138 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 1: this room. So that's five. The question then becomes Mike Woods, 1139 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 1: Dimitric Felton. I don't see us going to seven, but 1140 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: that's that's how it feels right now. So there's a 1141 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: battle for that sixth spot. Tight end room. I think 1142 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:33,440 Speaker 1: you're top four right now. Are your top four? Because 1143 00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 1: of Stantons versatility, to play fullback as well. But could 1144 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,600 Speaker 1: they only go with three tight ends? Possible? Possible? Forest 1145 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 1: All right now is in. I would put him in third, 1146 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 1: but stands having a very good camp. And we're gonna 1147 00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 1: hear from TC McCart and you talk about the Titans 1148 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 1: in just a little bit, so maybe even next after 1149 00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:52,960 Speaker 1: this fun music. Now we got around the league next, okay, um, 1150 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: So that's where there's some there's some pressure there. You've 1151 00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 1: got Nikeya Griffin Stewart who has been in the league 1152 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 1: for one year. He liked t. C'll hear him talking 1153 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 1: about him. Move tight end, has good hands working on 1154 00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 1: the run blocking part of it. Zaire Mitchell Payden is 1155 00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 1: he's a very hard worker. And then Marcus Santa Silva 1156 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:12,680 Speaker 1: is the project to his basketball player. I think he 1157 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 1: has a future here, but I don't know that. We're 1158 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 1: talking about fifty three man as a rookie. So you 1159 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: go to the offensive line. Here's where I think it 1160 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:22,880 Speaker 1: actually is getting interesting. Here's who I think is on 1161 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 1: the roster today. You're five starters, Hubbard, Hudson, Post, that's eight. 1162 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 1: There is a battle and we are seeing different combinations 1163 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 1: with that second team at the guard positions I have 1164 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:43,919 Speaker 1: seen for a while. It was Blake Hants and yelled 1165 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 1: the froe Holt we're getting the first like were they 1166 00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:49,520 Speaker 1: were the guards for the second team. And then on 1167 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:51,600 Speaker 1: this past one, as I'm watching the tape right now, 1168 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:55,120 Speaker 1: on this past one, the guards were Drew Forbes on 1169 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 1: the left, Blake Hants on the right. I've seen Drew 1170 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 1: Forbes in my we done, so I think you've got 1171 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 1: a competition between Forbes Done, fro Holt Enhance. Four guys 1172 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 1: for one or two spots because Postics played guard as 1173 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:16,680 Speaker 1: well in the league, so there's four guys for one 1174 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:19,439 Speaker 1: or two spots there, and I think that's interesting. Dawson Deeton, 1175 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 1: who they drafted, of course, you know you drafted the guy, 1176 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 1: maybe's in the mix. But at least as of now, 1177 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 1: Dawson Deaton has been working with the third team exclusively. 1178 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,160 Speaker 1: I have not seen him yet get any second team reps, 1179 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 1: so that would make it feel like it's gonna be 1180 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 1: a little bit harder for him. So that's a pressure point. 1181 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 1: In terms of roster d line, we haven't seen Sheldon 1182 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,040 Speaker 1: Day yet, but Sheldon Day to ye, I are probably 1183 01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:44,360 Speaker 1: going for one spot defensive end Chase Winovitch, Stephen Weatherly, 1184 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 1: you know, Isaac Rochelle. They're probably going for one spot 1185 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 1: right now. Winovich would be the favorite there, but that's 1186 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:56,280 Speaker 1: probably going for one spot. Linebacker. You've got Tony fields 1187 01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 1: Um that you would think is probably your linebacker five. 1188 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,480 Speaker 1: And then the question is do we keep six linebackers. 1189 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 1: I don't know that we would keep six linebackers. You 1190 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 1: have four starters and you really only have, you know, 1191 01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 1: the five guys on the roster. They would be there 1192 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,880 Speaker 1: to play special teams. Now, Dakota Allen is a special 1193 01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 1: team's guy. Willie Harvey's had a couple of nice days 1194 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:15,960 Speaker 1: of camp, and they love Silas Kelly, the undrafted free 1195 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,479 Speaker 1: agent with the great hair hair. So that's that's that's 1196 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 1: a little tough. But we're talking about bottom of the roster. 1197 01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 1: I think we might only keep the five corners. If 1198 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 1: you do keep six, her Miller, Uh, Parnell Motley, those 1199 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,040 Speaker 1: guys are kind of maybe in the mix. Reggie Robinson, 1200 01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 1: Sean Jolly, that's the four, but I would probably say 1201 01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:33,760 Speaker 1: Miller and Motley right now of a little bit of 1202 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 1: an advantage. And then it's safety rich LeCount Javante Moffatt 1203 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: d Anthony Bell for maybe one spot. That becomes a 1204 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 1: pretty interesting mix right there. So that's but this is 1205 01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:48,560 Speaker 1: what we're talking about. And then Charlton and bjork is 1206 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 1: one and Punter will make the football team. But nothing 1207 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:54,200 Speaker 1: of consequence here. And I don't know that there's you know, 1208 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 1: sometimes who's gonna be the big name surprise. I don't 1209 01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 1: know if there's a big name surprise on this team 1210 01:01:57,720 --> 01:01:59,560 Speaker 1: that would get cut. I don't know that that's even 1211 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 1: no in the rerum of possibility. It's this roster has 1212 01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 1: been expertly put together. Yeah, what is known is very 1213 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:12,320 Speaker 1: well known, and and it's there's there's not a whole 1214 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: lot of room to it. I know that it's something 1215 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 1: we do around here a lot. It's so who's who's 1216 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 1: who's gonna win this start? And a lot of it's 1217 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,800 Speaker 1: sorted out. It's not real exciting, but it means you 1218 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 1: have a good football team. That's what that means. In 1219 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 1: the old days, you're saying, well, who's gonna win this job, 1220 01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 1: who's gonna who's gonna be the starting this this because 1221 01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 1: you're not a very good football team. We have a 1222 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,960 Speaker 1: really good football, very football team. So that's that's why 1223 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 1: it is the way that it is. Um all right, 1224 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 1: Coming up next, we'll go around the League Hall of 1225 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 1: Fame Game Tonight.

Pro Football Hall of Fame Game Tonight. 1238 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 1: Um said it earlier this week. It's a shame that 1239 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 1: that's the way that this game is played, that you're 1240 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: not gonna see anybody or anything. And I'm surprised that 1241 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:52,480 Speaker 1: NBC puts up with it. I'm surprised. I think there's 1242 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 1: a million ways you could sort it out. You can 1243 01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 1: go thud. That would do it. You could say, look, 1244 01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:58,560 Speaker 1: everyone's got to play their starters for one series and 1245 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 1: just have the understanding that nobody to anybody below the 1246 01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:04,320 Speaker 1: waist or near the head. I mean, that's there's a 1247 01:04:04,360 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 1: million ways we're gonna have the Eagles in here in 1248 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,320 Speaker 1: two weeks and we're gonna have no one's gonna get 1249 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: hurt and it's all gonna be fine. So like the 1250 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:14,680 Speaker 1: notion that you can't see Trevor Lawrence night very at 1251 01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 1: least have the quarterbacks and the skill guys go out there. Yeah, 1252 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 1: that's all anybody cares about. Anyway you want to protect 1253 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 1: the offensive line, I'd rather watch if they were doing 1254 01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 1: one on ones Lawrence throw it. Not interested. And it's 1255 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 1: gotten so much worse there. This was this is always 1256 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:33,720 Speaker 1: the worst game, which I think it always sucks for 1257 01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 1: Can It sucks for Hall of Fame weekend that they 1258 01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:38,120 Speaker 1: do it this way. But it's gotten worse. It's really 1259 01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 1: gotten worse. There. Used to at least they'd get you 1260 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,480 Speaker 1: a series of the starters. They give you a series, 1261 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, but it's been a long time since you've 1262 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,560 Speaker 1: even gotten that. Um. It does kick off the marquee 1263 01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 1: weekend for the league, and it's obviously a ton of 1264 01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:53,760 Speaker 1: headlines for the whole league this weekend with with the 1265 01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 1: Shawan and then I'll tell you we spent so much. 1266 01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 1: We had Charles on, he's just the best, and we 1267 01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 1: were talking about obviously the Watson stuff, and at the 1268 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,960 Speaker 1: end of it, I asked him the question about Miami 1269 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:09,560 Speaker 1: and are you are you surprised ee that there has 1270 01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:15,840 Speaker 1: been no punishment for Brady in this No, I mean, 1271 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 1: I mean he faked a retirement, colluded with an NFL 1272 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:24,040 Speaker 1: team to become a player owner of the NFL team 1273 01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 1: while under contract with a current team. That's what happened. Yeah, 1274 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:30,360 Speaker 1: that you would think that there would be some type 1275 01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 1: of a punishment, But my guess is there again, and 1276 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 1: this is the point I was making with Charles Estate. 1277 01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 1: There's something to it that in a situation where an 1278 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,959 Speaker 1: owner and a player both committed a wrongdoing, the owner 1279 01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 1: was held to a higher standard of punishment, which has 1280 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,600 Speaker 1: been the crux of the argument on one side for 1281 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:49,920 Speaker 1: the n f L p A and the Deshaun Watson 1282 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:54,480 Speaker 1: that owners have not been punished for sexual misconduct, and 1283 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:57,520 Speaker 1: so they're saying, well, hell, look over here, Yeah, play. 1284 01:05:57,600 --> 01:05:59,960 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's fine, we got the owner. We got the owner. 1285 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,360 Speaker 1: By the way, what does the suspension even mean for 1286 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 1: an owner? What does it mean the listen? Dan Snyder's 1287 01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 1: even trying. I I'm in the south of France. I'm 1288 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 1: fine not to see here. What do I need to 1289 01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:14,720 Speaker 1: go from International waters? That's it? Oh, there's Gibby. Gibby's here. 1290 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 1: I thought maybe you need a little help out of 1291 01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 1: the bullpen here. Enjoy yourself music.

Don't dummy, Like, if you're out on 1370 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,120 Speaker 1: the away and he's driving a car that's equipped, go 1371 01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 1: for it alight. By the way. One last piece of 1372 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:08,479 Speaker 1: NFL news, Deonte Johnson receives a two year extension where 1373 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:11,719 Speaker 1: thirty six point seven million dollars. He's a good player 1374 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:14,080 Speaker 1: and I was gonna throw the ball, but he's a 1375 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:16,519 Speaker 1: good player. He is. Doesn't seem like things are going 1376 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 1: swimmingly over there at the quarterback. Now it's been a 1377 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:21,639 Speaker 1: Mitchell headed of course, and why wouldn't it, Why would it? Yeah, 1378 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:25,559 Speaker 1: I go back to this. Mitch Trobinsky was on full 1379 01:11:25,600 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 1: display as a starter for the Bears. Obviously not maybe 1380 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,880 Speaker 1: three system for a couple of years after that, the 1381 01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: only team in the league that would give him a 1382 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 1: one year I think it was two and a half 1383 01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:36,040 Speaker 1: a million dollars, may have been three and a half, 1384 01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:37,040 Speaker 1: but two and a half to three and a half 1385 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:39,599 Speaker 1: million dollars for a quarterback is not much. Only one 1386 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:43,240 Speaker 1: team would give him a contract that was the Bills. 1387 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:46,680 Speaker 1: So he signs it one year, basically quarterback minimum. That's 1388 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:48,439 Speaker 1: kind of what it feels like to go back up 1389 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. He backs up Josh Allen, doesn't play, Josh 1390 01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:53,720 Speaker 1: Allen plays, and then gets a two year, fourteen million 1391 01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: dollar deal to be a starting quarterback. So when we 1392 01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:01,200 Speaker 1: saw him as a star her, we said this guy 1393 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 1: can't start. Then when we don't see him as a 1394 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:09,200 Speaker 1: starter and he's just a backup, we say, yeah, okay, yeah, 1395 01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: great job, good job out of you. Uh, we're gonna 1396 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,560 Speaker 1: talk some tight ends with coach TC McCartney. That is 1397 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:17,280 Speaker 1: coming up next.

We played in 1417 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 1: two national championships in one one when I was there. 1418 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:22,720 Speaker 1: UM ended up at Colorado for two years as a 1419 01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 1: g a UM and then I moved to UH Cleveland 1420 01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:30,559 Speaker 1: because of my first NFL job. I was here. UM 1421 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,720 Speaker 1: then I jumped to San Francisco for a year and 1422 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 1: then to Baton Rouge, back to L s U for 1423 01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 1: a year and back to San Francisco for two years.

This is the only thing I've ever 1431 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:58,880 Speaker 1: done or what. It's pretty good, right, it's not not 1432 01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:02,080 Speaker 1: a bad thing. And so you go back to when 1433 01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:04,479 Speaker 1: you're here with Kyle, right, and then in San Francisco 1434 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:06,439 Speaker 1: with Kyle, so you are familiar.

So I been in 1439 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 1: this system for a long time now, or some kind 1440 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:20,519 Speaker 1: of offshoot of this system for a while.

With real stakes as you very well, 1445 01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:30,840 Speaker 1: knowing a lot of pressure. But does that give you 1446 01:14:30,880 --> 01:14:33,519 Speaker 1: an appreciation is is this something that you get excited 1447 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 1: to do every single day? Oh? Absolutely, I mean I 1448 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,559 Speaker 1: don't again, I don't know much else, but I can't 1449 01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:44,240 Speaker 1: imagine myself doing anything else. So getting to come out here, um, 1450 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:47,639 Speaker 1: you know, coach the tight ends, get out on the field, 1451 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 1: me and the sun, and then every week, you know, 1452 01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:53,040 Speaker 1: when we get to the season, you get a test yourself. 1453 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,559 Speaker 1: So it's a lot of fun. Given that you were 1454 01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:59,040 Speaker 1: a quarterback yourself and that you have worked with quarterbacks 1455 01:14:59,120 --> 01:15:02,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL, how does that help you with tight ends? 1456 01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 1: And I think probably the natural thing is right, you're 1457 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:05,880 Speaker 1: helping them to be able to see the game through 1458 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:07,760 Speaker 1: the eyes of the quarterback, which is important when they 1459 01:15:07,760 --> 01:15:11,880 Speaker 1: want to get the football. Absolutely, So when you're in 1460 01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:14,560 Speaker 1: the quarterback room, there's a lot, there's a lot going on, 1461 01:15:15,240 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 1: But probably second most uh in the position wise, would 1462 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,240 Speaker 1: be tight ends were involved in every aspect of the 1463 01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:23,479 Speaker 1: game and so being able to see every part of 1464 01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:25,600 Speaker 1: the game, whether it's protection, whether it's run game, or 1465 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 1: whether it's a pass game. Um, in a similar vein 1466 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:31,200 Speaker 1: to the quarterback is it's it's very similar. Why do 1467 01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:33,000 Speaker 1: you love this system and why do you love it? 1468 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:37,160 Speaker 1: Four tight ends? I think this system is put together well. 1469 01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:41,200 Speaker 1: Things complement each other, um, but it has a lot 1470 01:15:41,240 --> 01:15:42,600 Speaker 1: of diversity, so it can look at a lot of 1471 01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:45,559 Speaker 1: different ways. And so with the tight end position, UM, 1472 01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:48,200 Speaker 1: we can use guys and a hold bunch of different ways. 1473 01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,800 Speaker 1: Whereas you watch other teams play, they might not be 1474 01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:53,519 Speaker 1: as a diverse in scheme, but we're able to take 1475 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,240 Speaker 1: an advantage of guys's strengths because we can put them 1476 01:15:56,280 --> 01:15:58,880 Speaker 1: in all sorts of different positions. So I think we can, um, 1477 01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:02,560 Speaker 1: it's the word I'm looking for, feature guys better in 1478 01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:05,439 Speaker 1: this system. So whether whatever position it is in the 1479 01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 1: tight end room, we can feature whatever you do well. 1480 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:08,640 Speaker 1: We can get you on the field and do that 1481 01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:11,559 Speaker 1: relative to San Francisco or maybe even in your time 1482 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,720 Speaker 1: in Denver with for example, having a Bill Callahan here, 1483 01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:16,679 Speaker 1: are there more concepts in the run game than maybe 1484 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:19,599 Speaker 1: in other places where say it's just that pure outside 1485 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 1: zone game. We do a lot of pulling, we do 1486 01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 1: a lot of pin poll, a lot of those kind 1487 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: of different you know, run techniques. Is that different here 1488 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:29,360 Speaker 1: or is that something that everybody does. Um, it's definitely 1489 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:30,960 Speaker 1: different here, and I think the other teams are starting 1490 01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:32,599 Speaker 1: to adopt it. The other teams that run this system 1491 01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:34,800 Speaker 1: are becoming more diverse in the run game. But when 1492 01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 1: I got here, I learned a ton from Coach Callahan 1493 01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:40,679 Speaker 1: and really everyone here about different schemes. So we pair 1494 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 1: the wide zone with a bunch of other schemes that 1495 01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 1: can complement it. So it's been obviously really good for 1496 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:47,800 Speaker 1: us the last two years, and we get we gotta 1497 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:50,360 Speaker 1: keep evolving. UM, but we've done some things well the 1498 01:16:50,439 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 1: last two years in the ron game. All right, let's 1499 01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:53,479 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about some of the guys in 1500 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:55,360 Speaker 1: your room. And I actually was talking to David and Joke, 1501 01:16:55,439 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 1: who obviously now he's the man, got paid to be 1502 01:16:57,360 --> 01:16:59,840 Speaker 1: the man. This is his year, former first round pick, 1503 01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:03,839 Speaker 1: incredible natural athletic gifts, hard worker, he's become a great blocker. 1504 01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:05,919 Speaker 1: But he said that you guys had a good relationship 1505 01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:08,639 Speaker 1: even before you became the tight end coach. You guys 1506 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:10,639 Speaker 1: would always kind of get along and joke around and stuff. 1507 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 1: So how did that relationship start with the chief? And 1508 01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:14,760 Speaker 1: then how is it now that your guys are in 1509 01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:17,439 Speaker 1: the same room together. Yeah. So me being in the 1510 01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:19,240 Speaker 1: quarterback room for two years, you know, we're kind of 1511 01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:22,000 Speaker 1: involved with with everyone, so I got to know, you know, 1512 01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 1: almost all the offensive guys are the last two years, Uh, 1513 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 1: me and Dave definitely had a good relationship. Again, it's 1514 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:30,920 Speaker 1: fun joking around with him, um and then just talking routs, 1515 01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,000 Speaker 1: talking football, talking life. So over those two years we 1516 01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:35,320 Speaker 1: developed a relationship and then now it's been an easy 1517 01:17:35,360 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 1: transition here. Um. Now that I'm in the room with him, 1518 01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:40,880 Speaker 1: we know each other, we trust each other. So when 1519 01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 1: I tell him something, he knows that I have the 1520 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:45,560 Speaker 1: best interested at heart. I like the fact that he 1521 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:47,280 Speaker 1: feels like some people, you know, they get paid and 1522 01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:48,800 Speaker 1: they're like all right, I've made it, and he feels 1523 01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,120 Speaker 1: like I need to justify this and he's ready to 1524 01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:54,599 Speaker 1: have a monster season. What are what's unique about his talent? 1525 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:56,120 Speaker 1: And why do you think he can have a great 1526 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,880 Speaker 1: year here in twenty two. I mean, he's super gifted. 1527 01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 1: So there's not a ton of guy us who are 1528 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 1: that big, who can run that fast, um, and are 1529 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:05,519 Speaker 1: is good at blockers him. So again, we can use 1530 01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:07,799 Speaker 1: him in so many different ways, whether it is past protection, 1531 01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 1: which he's had a lot to do a lot or 1532 01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:11,720 Speaker 1: whether it is gap schemes or wide zone, he can 1533 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 1: do all of those things. But he's also can struct 1534 01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:17,759 Speaker 1: the field. He can also, um, you know, he's developing 1535 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 1: as a route runner and he's got a chance to 1536 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,439 Speaker 1: be really really good. Um, he's really good with the 1537 01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 1: ball in his hands. So we have a lot of 1538 01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 1: ways to use him, and I'm excited to see all 1539 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:27,760 Speaker 1: the different ways we use him this year. Me too. 1540 01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:29,599 Speaker 1: And he's darn good in the red zone. Just throw 1541 01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:31,759 Speaker 1: it up and go get it. Play a little jump ball. Absolutely, 1542 01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 1: let's get him some touchdowns. Is that a quarterback's friend 1543 01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:35,280 Speaker 1: when you have a guy like that in the red 1544 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:36,640 Speaker 1: zone where you know, look if I just put it 1545 01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:38,120 Speaker 1: up or only he can get it, we have a 1546 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:40,439 Speaker 1: chance here be a touchdown and incompletion, which is that's 1547 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:42,720 Speaker 1: really what you want down there. Absolutely, when you guys 1548 01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:45,760 Speaker 1: have catch radius is the you know the term people use. 1549 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:47,600 Speaker 1: But he's got long arms and he can jump, so 1550 01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:49,760 Speaker 1: you can you can throw up pretty much anywhere. He 1551 01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:52,080 Speaker 1: can go get it. So that's always nice talking about 1552 01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:54,360 Speaker 1: Harrison Bryant, so three touchdowns in each of his first 1553 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:56,880 Speaker 1: two seasons, a guy who played some tackle in high 1554 01:18:56,920 --> 01:18:59,120 Speaker 1: school and then goes into college wins the Mackie Award. 1555 01:18:59,240 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 1: First guy ever to that from a nonpower five school 1556 01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:04,519 Speaker 1: natural route runner. How's he progressed? And now you know 1557 01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 1: you think Chiefs bumping up, he's bumping up to He's 1558 01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:08,760 Speaker 1: gonna be the guy in those two tight end sets 1559 01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 1: and the guy that probably can be a weapon in 1560 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:13,519 Speaker 1: the slot and is a move tight end. Yeah, absolutely so, Harrison. 1561 01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:16,160 Speaker 1: She got a lot more opportunities, um, you know, in 1562 01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:18,720 Speaker 1: the past game and and really doing everything this year 1563 01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:20,559 Speaker 1: than he has the past two years, which is gonna 1564 01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 1: be good. Um. You know, I don't think people have 1565 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:25,840 Speaker 1: seen the full arsenal he has, and we're really excited 1566 01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:28,000 Speaker 1: about him. There was a play I think it was 1567 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,439 Speaker 1: two days ago when you guys were doing Yeah, it 1568 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:32,639 Speaker 1: was two days ago. Was the first day back. We're 1569 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:35,240 Speaker 1: doing situations like it was fourth downs, third fourth downs, 1570 01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:40,000 Speaker 1: and he ran a jerk route that was nasty. Absolutely So, 1571 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,760 Speaker 1: we've been working a lot on you know, trying to 1572 01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:45,160 Speaker 1: gain separation using different techniques and he's one of the 1573 01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:46,519 Speaker 1: best that I've been around and being able to do 1574 01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 1: all these different things, especially for how big he is, 1575 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:50,880 Speaker 1: so it's gonna be a fun year watching him play. 1576 01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:52,920 Speaker 1: All Right, now we're in the guys that you probably 1577 01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:55,400 Speaker 1: have a little extra affinity for the quarterbacks who are 1578 01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 1: now tight ends Millar four style who obviously it was 1579 01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:01,360 Speaker 1: same high school as Trevor Lawrence and no shame, and 1580 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 1: I guess losing your quarterback job to Trevor Lawrence. Now 1581 01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:05,800 Speaker 1: here as a tight end with the Browns, how has 1582 01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:08,000 Speaker 1: he kind of developed? And it feels like he's had 1583 01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:10,400 Speaker 1: a nice start to his camp. Absolutely, he's had a 1584 01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 1: He's been really good for us. He's a really smart guy. 1585 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:14,559 Speaker 1: He knows what to do. So it feels like he's 1586 01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:16,960 Speaker 1: kind of an older player than he actually is. Um 1587 01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:19,200 Speaker 1: he's put on um, a lot of good weight, a 1588 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:22,679 Speaker 1: lot of good strength. UM. So he's had really good spring, 1589 01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:25,360 Speaker 1: really good start to camp. And uh, I'm excited to 1590 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:27,759 Speaker 1: see him in some preseason games. Let him play football 1591 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:29,800 Speaker 1: a little bit and on some teams. Right the third 1592 01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:31,760 Speaker 1: tight end, you're like, okay, yeah, you're the third tight end. 1593 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:33,400 Speaker 1: You're really not gonna play less, there's an injury. You're 1594 01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 1: probably gonna play nothing but special teams. But here and 1595 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:38,320 Speaker 1: I might imagine what the shawan at quarterback, it would 1596 01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:41,000 Speaker 1: be less, but we do run some of that thirteen personnel. 1597 01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:43,160 Speaker 1: We'll get the three tight ends on the field together, 1598 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 1: and so there is a role that Miller could play 1599 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:47,400 Speaker 1: if he can win that job. Absolutely, whoever the third 1600 01:20:47,439 --> 01:20:49,599 Speaker 1: tight end is, whether it's Miller or somebody else, they 1601 01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:51,280 Speaker 1: got a really good shot to be on the field 1602 01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:52,960 Speaker 1: to make an impact on our team and help us 1603 01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:56,120 Speaker 1: win games. Um, we probably put third tight down field 1604 01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:59,160 Speaker 1: as much as anybody the NFL. So, um, he's got 1605 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:00,599 Speaker 1: a chance and he's definite. I got the skill set 1606 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:02,559 Speaker 1: to do it. So I'm excited. I's talk about another 1607 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:04,920 Speaker 1: former quarterback, Johnny Stanton, who has been a quarterback, He's 1608 01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:06,800 Speaker 1: been a fullback, he's been a linebacker and and now 1609 01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:08,600 Speaker 1: working in your room as a tight end and a 1610 01:21:08,640 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 1: guy that has that diversity of skill set. He can 1611 01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:12,400 Speaker 1: line up in the backfield if you need him to. 1612 01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:14,519 Speaker 1: And yesterday I had a good day. I think out 1613 01:21:14,560 --> 01:21:17,040 Speaker 1: here caught a bunch of balls. What have you seen 1614 01:21:17,120 --> 01:21:19,160 Speaker 1: from him in his development go into a position that 1615 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:20,880 Speaker 1: he did a long time ago but is now trying 1616 01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:23,320 Speaker 1: to do again here in the NFL. Absolutely, you know, 1617 01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:25,360 Speaker 1: in the spring kind of transitioning to tight end a 1618 01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,800 Speaker 1: little bit. Um, you know, we're still gonna get him 1619 01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:31,800 Speaker 1: in spots familiar to him. Um, but he's got the 1620 01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:34,040 Speaker 1: skill set to do these things. He's been doing him 1621 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:36,519 Speaker 1: for a while now. Um, he knows this offense. So 1622 01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:38,960 Speaker 1: it's about putting him in a couple of different positions 1623 01:21:38,960 --> 01:21:40,920 Speaker 1: and then some familiar positions for him. But yeah, I 1624 01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 1: had a great day yesterday at you know, five or 1625 01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:45,360 Speaker 1: six ball, some really big plays. So I been doing 1626 01:21:45,439 --> 01:21:47,920 Speaker 1: really well. Has he kind of taken naturally more to 1627 01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:50,040 Speaker 1: the route running maybe faster than you might have expected 1628 01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:51,920 Speaker 1: because the blocking that's gonna come for him, right, that's 1629 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:53,760 Speaker 1: something that he's been doing his whole career. But it 1630 01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:55,720 Speaker 1: feels like he's has an act forget open and he 1631 01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,559 Speaker 1: catches the ball pretty naturally and cleanly. Absolutely, he's got 1632 01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:00,719 Speaker 1: really natural hands. We saw that even in the past 1633 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:03,200 Speaker 1: two camps. Um, he's had to spot play tight end 1634 01:22:03,240 --> 01:22:04,599 Speaker 1: a little bit and he made a lot of play. 1635 01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 1: So I think it was a natural transition for him 1636 01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 1: to get out in space and and do that a 1637 01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:10,640 Speaker 1: little bit more. If I'm not mistaken, I think it 1638 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 1: was preseason against the Giants last year he played tight 1639 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:14,680 Speaker 1: end because we were down, I think like everybody, and 1640 01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:15,920 Speaker 1: I had a couple of can I think thirty three 1641 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:17,679 Speaker 1: yards a couple of catches in that one. Yeah. Absolutely, 1642 01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:19,760 Speaker 1: he's flashed past couple of years the ability to run 1643 01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:21,840 Speaker 1: down the scene and make plays with his hands, run 1644 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:24,960 Speaker 1: after catch. So it's been good. All right. So we're 1645 01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:28,120 Speaker 1: through four. There's still more competition, and that's what's great 1646 01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:30,759 Speaker 1: about the National Football League. Let's start with Marcus Santos 1647 01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 1: Silva trying to follow mo Aali Cox his footsteps, his 1648 01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:36,680 Speaker 1: teammate at VCU basketball player. You can see he's just 1649 01:22:36,720 --> 01:22:38,720 Speaker 1: a natural athlete and it looks to me like he 1650 01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:40,519 Speaker 1: catches it pretty naturally, like he's been doing it for 1651 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:42,760 Speaker 1: a while. How is his development coming in and see 1652 01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 1: somebody that you could see having, you know, a bright 1653 01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:48,280 Speaker 1: future down the road. Absolutely. So it's always hard to 1654 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 1: transition to a completely new sport. I mean two months 1655 01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:54,439 Speaker 1: after he's hitting three throws ago the sweet sixteen, you 1656 01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,439 Speaker 1: know he's in an NFL tight end room. So, um, 1657 01:22:58,120 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 1: he's got a lot to learn, but he's been doing well. 1658 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:02,240 Speaker 1: He made tons of improvements from when he first got 1659 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:06,400 Speaker 1: here until now. Um, and you know, Brown's fans go 1660 01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:10,320 Speaker 1: watch his highlight his basketball highlights on YouTube. They're pretty cool. 1661 01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:12,519 Speaker 1: You can see how his footwork and how athletic he 1662 01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:14,760 Speaker 1: is and so a lot of work to do, but 1663 01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:17,599 Speaker 1: the talents definitely there. So a good piece of clay. 1664 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:20,000 Speaker 1: How's the blocking, i't imagine that would be. He's used 1665 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:22,000 Speaker 1: to blocking with his butt right, blocking people out to 1666 01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:23,719 Speaker 1: get rebounds, and now of a sudden you're blocking somebody 1667 01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:25,800 Speaker 1: that's in front of you with your leverage, your arms, 1668 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:28,200 Speaker 1: your legs getting low and all of that. Absolutely, it's 1669 01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 1: a it's a hard transition for anyone, but it's really 1670 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,280 Speaker 1: hard when you line up across from Miles Garrett and 1671 01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:35,080 Speaker 1: Clowning and these guys. So, uh, a lot of technique 1672 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:36,479 Speaker 1: work to do. We gotta learn what a lot of 1673 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,360 Speaker 1: work to do there. But he has really heavy hands 1674 01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:40,720 Speaker 1: and he's gained a lot of weight, and um, he's 1675 01:23:40,720 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 1: been doing really well. What can you tell us about Nikia? 1676 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 1: Griffin Swart one of the young men, and then it 1677 01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:47,160 Speaker 1: is also Zeyer and Mitchell paying two young undrafted free 1678 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:48,640 Speaker 1: agents who are coming in here trying to compete and 1679 01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:51,800 Speaker 1: make a make a role for themselves. So Nikia, he's 1680 01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:53,400 Speaker 1: been in the league a little bit. He's got, um 1681 01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:56,160 Speaker 1: some knowledge of what we're trying to do. He's been 1682 01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:58,000 Speaker 1: in this system a little bit, so he has good 1683 01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:02,160 Speaker 1: base of what we're doing. Um, he's really good in space, Okay, 1684 01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:06,920 Speaker 1: he's Uh, he's a really good route runner, hands, really 1685 01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:09,479 Speaker 1: good pass game. You know, he's done a lot of 1686 01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:13,439 Speaker 1: good things for us. Now we're transitioning. Um, getting him 1687 01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:15,160 Speaker 1: in the run game, get him doing some things. And 1688 01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:17,360 Speaker 1: he had a good day yesterday being physical. I don't 1689 01:24:17,400 --> 01:24:19,640 Speaker 1: even know how many past plays I had him in 1690 01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:21,360 Speaker 1: for Like, we're getting in the run game and he's 1691 01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:24,680 Speaker 1: done well. He's versatile, he can play some different spots. Uh, 1692 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:28,640 Speaker 1: the similar vein to Harrison, and so getting him just 1693 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:31,040 Speaker 1: more raps, letting him play. Uh in the spring, it's 1694 01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:33,080 Speaker 1: been a little different without you know, we don't get pads, 1695 01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:36,000 Speaker 1: so we gotta see him, you know, in preseason games 1696 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 1: playing hitting, running and catching. And I'm excited to do that. 1697 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:41,880 Speaker 1: And then Zaire and Mitchell Payton I've seen make a 1698 01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:43,479 Speaker 1: couple of grabs here so far and camp. But what 1699 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:45,720 Speaker 1: can he tell us about him in his game? Um, 1700 01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:49,360 Speaker 1: undrafted rookie came in here, and uh, he's a really 1701 01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:52,920 Speaker 1: hard worker. Um, he's come in. He's a big guy, 1702 01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:56,519 Speaker 1: a lot of length, a little raw, but he's got 1703 01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:58,840 Speaker 1: a lot of ability. Um, and it's definitely a name 1704 01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:01,880 Speaker 1: to watch. He's UM, he's gonna develop really fast because 1705 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 1: how hard, hard of a worker he is. He's gonna 1706 01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 1: contribute in both the run and the pass game. He's 1707 01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:07,680 Speaker 1: made a ton of improvements as he got here, So 1708 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm excited to watch him. You mentioned kind of in 1709 01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:12,600 Speaker 1: the spring you were in the pass game, but you 1710 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,840 Speaker 1: were in either the quick game the deep game. You 1711 01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:18,120 Speaker 1: were in, but you weren't in the play action game. 1712 01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:20,600 Speaker 1: And I imagine in your room that's something that is 1713 01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 1: a big part of what the tight Ends do, right. 1714 01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:23,960 Speaker 1: They get involved a lot in a lot of especially 1715 01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:25,680 Speaker 1: in the boots and the misdirections, getting kind of those 1716 01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 1: little crossers. You really can't do that in the mini 1717 01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:29,880 Speaker 1: CAIMP because everything that was done in the O T 1718 01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:32,240 Speaker 1: A S was quarter speed. When it was team it 1719 01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:34,000 Speaker 1: was basically seven on seven camp. You know you're passing 1720 01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:35,240 Speaker 1: the ball and there's really not gonna be a play 1721 01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:37,840 Speaker 1: action action off of that. How has that been for 1722 01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:40,960 Speaker 1: your guys? Finally getting that work now? Pads come on yesterday, 1723 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:43,880 Speaker 1: getting that actual play action game work. That's gonna be 1724 01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:46,439 Speaker 1: a big part of what they do this season. Yeah, 1725 01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:48,559 Speaker 1: it's been really good. So we've been talking about these concepts, 1726 01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:50,599 Speaker 1: we've been learning them schematically for a long time now, 1727 01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 1: but this is really the first time we get out 1728 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 1: there in full speed, make contact and work on these techniques. 1729 01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:58,560 Speaker 1: And so again, a ton of work, but it was 1730 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:00,720 Speaker 1: a good start. Yesterday. There was one play I wanted 1731 01:26:00,720 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 1: to ask you about where it looked like Miller's responsibility 1732 01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:05,720 Speaker 1: would have been to block Miles. Miles dropped kind of 1733 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:07,160 Speaker 1: into the center of the d and I don't know 1734 01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:08,679 Speaker 1: if he was spine, I don't know what he was doing, 1735 01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:11,280 Speaker 1: but did was it his job to block? And then 1736 01:26:11,320 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 1: if not, if he didn't rush, then he gets to release. 1737 01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:15,080 Speaker 1: End up making a nice little grab right across his 1738 01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:17,240 Speaker 1: face and making a pretty big play there. Yeah, it 1739 01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:19,080 Speaker 1: was gonna be he was gonna release no matter what. 1740 01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:20,840 Speaker 1: We might have chipped through Miles to help the tackle 1741 01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:23,280 Speaker 1: a little bit. Uh, Miles ended up dropping and we 1742 01:26:23,360 --> 01:26:25,439 Speaker 1: were running a shaller out and he made a nice play, 1743 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 1: ran right through the ball, called the ball away from 1744 01:26:27,360 --> 01:26:29,640 Speaker 1: his body with his hands, ran right through it. So 1745 01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:32,040 Speaker 1: it was a good play. Um, when the pads come on, 1746 01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:34,360 Speaker 1: that's a big day for your room. Did you feel 1747 01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:35,920 Speaker 1: were you happy because we keep talking about it, hims, Oh, 1748 01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:37,320 Speaker 1: he had nice day yesterday. He had a nice day, 1749 01:26:37,439 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 1: So a good day for your room overall. Absolutely. Uh. 1750 01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:43,160 Speaker 1: We challenged the whole offense really going into it. We 1751 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:44,800 Speaker 1: didn't have a great day of the day before, and 1752 01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:46,720 Speaker 1: then we put the pads on and we expected to see, 1753 01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:48,639 Speaker 1: you know, the biggest thing was finished, and I thought 1754 01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:51,160 Speaker 1: the whole offense, but especially there's tight ends as well. 1755 01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:53,320 Speaker 1: We're finishing yesterday, so it was good to see. Now, 1756 01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 1: as a former quarterback, do you enjoy the portion practice 1757 01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:56,680 Speaker 1: or you get to just sling the ball around to 1758 01:26:56,760 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 1: the tight ends? Oh? Absolutely, I love throwing it around. 1759 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:02,560 Speaker 1: But you know what, what I've learned in since my 1760 01:27:02,640 --> 01:27:04,120 Speaker 1: time in this system is the best way to throw 1761 01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:06,640 Speaker 1: it is to play action and and to do that 1762 01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:08,519 Speaker 1: you have to be able to run the ball. So, um, 1763 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:10,280 Speaker 1: if you want a bunch of catches, if you want 1764 01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:13,160 Speaker 1: easy uh, easy catches and big plays. And the best 1765 01:27:13,200 --> 01:27:15,040 Speaker 1: way we could do that has been really good at blocking. 1766 01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:17,080 Speaker 1: And we even saw a nice little tight end screen 1767 01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:18,479 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago to the chief that was 1768 01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:20,080 Speaker 1: a was a big one that was set up off 1769 01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:21,560 Speaker 1: of a little play. There's a lot going on on 1770 01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:22,920 Speaker 1: that play. We don't need to get in all that 1771 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:26,120 Speaker 1: for those trying to get information here, But for you personally, 1772 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:29,280 Speaker 1: what's it like having your own room like this with 1773 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:31,439 Speaker 1: the guys and think about now you've talked about in 1774 01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 1: the past, You've worked with some old lines, You've done 1775 01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:36,400 Speaker 1: with quarterbacks, now with tight ends, building your skill set 1776 01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:38,080 Speaker 1: and I know some Kevin Sefanci he wants you guys 1777 01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 1: to do kind of because at some point right you 1778 01:27:40,960 --> 01:27:42,560 Speaker 1: want to go be an offensive coordinator. You want to 1779 01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:45,200 Speaker 1: go then become a head coach, and so getting that diversity. 1780 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 1: Is this really fun for you? Absolutely? It's kind of 1781 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,800 Speaker 1: being able to put um all the different aspects you 1782 01:27:50,880 --> 01:27:53,760 Speaker 1: learn about a scheme together into one room. Whether it's 1783 01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 1: in the run game blocking, whether it's pass protection um scheme, 1784 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:01,360 Speaker 1: or whether it's pass protection technique, a route running, um 1785 01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:03,760 Speaker 1: catching the ball fundamentals, all those things come up in 1786 01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:05,600 Speaker 1: this room. So it's been a lot of fun. I 1787 01:28:05,640 --> 01:28:08,160 Speaker 1: feel like I've been trained really well by the guys 1788 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:10,800 Speaker 1: I gotta work under, including the guys here, and so 1789 01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 1: I felt really ready for this opportunity. Um, and you know, 1790 01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:16,600 Speaker 1: I really enjoy uh the guys that we have in 1791 01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 1: the room. I mean, that's the most important part about coaching. 1792 01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:21,439 Speaker 1: It's the reason that I you know, you deal with 1793 01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:23,519 Speaker 1: eighteen hour nineteen hour days because you really enjoy the 1794 01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:25,400 Speaker 1: people you work with. And so that's been you know, 1795 01:28:25,479 --> 01:28:27,640 Speaker 1: the most fun part. And it's in your blood. I mean, 1796 01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:29,400 Speaker 1: I think it was. It was almost destined that you 1797 01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:31,760 Speaker 1: would be sitting here, I think so probably. So again, 1798 01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,400 Speaker 1: I've never even thought about doing anything else.

We would do this. 1835 01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:34,600 Speaker 1: It's not like we were experts on anything, but I 1836 01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:36,640 Speaker 1: guess there's experts that some people can be. And we 1837 01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:40,519 Speaker 1: would do this thing, which just you have a thousand 1838 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:43,880 Speaker 1: calls as if we were some sort of authority. People 1839 01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:47,240 Speaker 1: want to be guided. It's like, what do I know, man, 1840 01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:49,880 Speaker 1: just a dude on the radio. So would you give 1841 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:51,679 Speaker 1: like a rationality you would just be Oh, I would 1842 01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:55,479 Speaker 1: make and made a mockery of it, like sometimes you 1843 01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:57,640 Speaker 1: know you had a business.

If 1846 01:31:02,960 --> 01:31:05,240 Speaker 1: I thought, whoever the guy I thought were a cooler number, 1847 01:31:05,400 --> 01:31:08,200 Speaker 1: like I would that's actually a good criteria. Yeah, I 1848 01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:10,360 Speaker 1: would make. I made a complete mockery of it. So 1849 01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:12,280 Speaker 1: because I wasn't an expert in it, and I made 1850 01:31:12,320 --> 01:31:14,000 Speaker 1: fun of the fact that I wasn't.
