1
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Oneko to the insiders on NFL Network.

Speaker 2: Judy Batista, Ian Rappaford joining me, Mike Garrofalo, Brian Baldinger is.

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: Along for the riot.

4

Speaker 2: He'll be with us shortly, as is our Jeffrey Jedia.

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: We've got two guests tonight.

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 2: Gerald McCoy, also one of our coworkers here at NFL Network.

7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 2: He will be joining us later in the program, as

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 2: well as Jaguars linebacker Trayvon Walker, the former number one

9
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 2: overall pick, stops by to talk expectations for this upcoming season,

10
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 2: talk about some of the big deals his teammates have

11
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 2: gotten and maybe one coming for him in the future.

12
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: He'll be with us later in the show, but for now,

13
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 2: let's talk rams. Let's talk Sean McVay, the coach of

14
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: that team right there that won the Super Bowl just

15
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, went through a reset. He

16
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: recently told the team's official website. You know what's cool,

17
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: this is a quote. Being around this group and especially

18
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: even last year, feels like year one again.

19
00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: And I really mean that.

20
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 2: See it's nice, nice to know that he really does

21
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 2: mean what he is saying. But this is a rejuvenated

22
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: Sean McVay. This is a guy that clearly feels better

23
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 2: about his position, his situation that he did coming off

24
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 2: of that Super Bowl and toyed with the idea of

25
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: heading into broadcasting. Now rejuvenated as the head coach of

26
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: the Rams, he is I want to throw it to

27
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: you here to start, because this is a Rams team

28
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: that's got a bunch of things going on.

29
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of confidence there.

30
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: They had some money that they spent in free agency

31
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 2: to help fortify that offensive line, did so in the

32
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: draft as well. But they've got that quarterback situation that

33
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 2: needs to be resolved, with Matthew Stafford wanting a little

34
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: tweak to his deal.

35
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 3: You got to think that one of the reasons Sean

36
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 3: McVay feels rejuvenated is because they had such a good year,

37
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 3: such a promising year last year, with such a young team,

38
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 3: except for their thirty six year old quarterback Matthew Stafford,

39
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 3: who really was playing like he was twenty six. I mean,

40
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 3: his arm, the wade, bounced back, the Plazus Megan last

41
00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: year looked like a quarterback in his prime, which Stafford

42
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: he does sound like he wants to believe he is,

43
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 3: even though he is thirty six years old. So the

44
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 3: breakdown essentially here is that Stafford, my understanding is wants

45
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: more guaranteed money. Then sound like you would mind the

46
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 3: raise either wants. His contract adjusted makes thirty one million dollars,

47
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 3: thirty two million dollars and thirty one in the final

48
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 3: three years there was deal. Nothing guaranteed after this year,

49
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 3: we have seen the quarterback market. Of course, most recent

50
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence took a major, major leap. Stafford did his

51
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 3: deal several years ago. Probably feels like he needs a

52
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 3: little bit of a catchup, a little bit of a

53
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 3: band aid. He is going to show up to trading

54
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 3: camp by Sean McVay said he was a mini camp,

55
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 3: so no hold out expected, but certainly someone who does

56
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 3: feel like he wants the kind of guaranteed money. Maybe

57
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 3: when he's thirty seven to thirty eight. They're seeing other

58
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 3: quarterbacks who want to play into their forties get well.

59
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,839
Speaker 4: You can understand why Sean McVay would feel rejuvenated and

60
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 4: energized because the most arduous part of their rebuild or transition,

61
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 4: if you want to call it that, it is over right.

62
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: They came through it.

63
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 4: The year started a little bit rough, last year, but

64
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 4: then they really went on a long upswing and made

65
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 4: the playoffs. And so now he gets to look forward

66
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 4: to not just having Matthew Stafford and a whole lot

67
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 4: of young talent, but he can also be energized by

68
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: the challenge of the transition on defense. Right Raheem Morris

69
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 4: has gone off to be the head coach of the

70
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 4: Atlanta Falcons, incomes Chrishula as the defensive coordinator. There are

71
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 4: a lot of new faces there. Obviously Aaron Donald is

72
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 4: now retired. They brought in three new guys veterans for

73
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 4: the defensive secondary. They drafted two guys for the defensive

74
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 4: line with their top picks. So there's also the challenge. Yes,

75
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 4: they've gone through what was probably the worst part of

76
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 4: the rebuild, but now there is the challenge of putting

77
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 4: that defense together with all those new faces. I think

78
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 4: that re energizes most coaches to have a new challenge

79
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 4: in front of them when they're also in a very

80
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 4: good spot going forward.

81
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: And when you hear from Rams players as staffers.

82
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 2: They talked about McVeigh and his energy on the field

83
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: in OTA's this spring. They said you could notice that

84
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: he's got that passion back for what he is doing.

85
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: He's running around there, he's throwing the football, He's doing everything.

86
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 2: He wants to be a part of what's happening. More so,

87
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 2: it seems like than he ever has. So we will

88
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: look for the rams once we get the training camp

89
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 2: to see if that passion, that energy translates to then

90
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 2: and then into the regular season. Kalais Campbell, speaking of

91
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 2: regular seasons, this is going to be his seventeen in

92
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: the NFL.

93
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: Seventeenth. This one's official.

94
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 2: Campbell's signing with the Dolphins, the former University of Miami.

95
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: A defensive lineman returning to Miami, and he is looking

96
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: forward to potentially getting his first Super Bowl trophy. Here's

97
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 2: Kalais on joining Miami.

98
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 5: Is like, I can't control with the end of the year

99
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 5: if I will be a champion or not. But I

100
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 5: can prepare like a champion. You know, I can work

101
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 5: like a champion. I can you know, lead like a champion.

102
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 5: I can definitely be a guy his championship worthy. So

103
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 5: my mom said, has come to work every day, prepare

104
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 5: every day as a guy that's worthy enough to be

105
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 5: a champion. So if I do that and I can

106
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 5: live with myself you know, whatever happens happens, but you know,

107
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 5: I definitely think that the opportunity is here.

108
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: Play like a champion today. Now that wasn't Miami.

109
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: That was actually one of Miami's rivals that had that sign.

110
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 2: Who was that again, Brian Baldinger, you are with us,

111
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: Let's talk some football, Baldie, as you're down there speaking

112
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 2: and speaking of Florida, you're down there enjoying the warm

113
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 2: weather there. I want to talk about the Bosa brothers,

114
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 2: Nick and Joey. You've spent some time with them, and

115
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: you could tell that they are juiced for the start

116
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: of the season here.

117
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 6: I think.

118
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 7: So, you know, the family business, the Bosa family business

119
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 7: is pretty good hunting quarterbacks, starting with the father and then.

120
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 6: Joey and Nick.

121
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 7: And you know he the big bear and the little

122
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 7: bear worked out together, you know, every morning down here,

123
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 7: and they, I mean, they really get after Now.

124
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 6: Look they're not alone.

125
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,239
Speaker 7: There's a lot of players out there, got their trainers there,

126
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 7: you know, in some other kind of kill his conditions

127
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 7: of humidity, doing similar things. But one thing I'll say

128
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 7: about both, I mean, Joey obviously he's had some injuries

129
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 7: the last two years, went healthy.

130
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 6: He's a difference maker.

131
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 7: Ian Khulio Mack both have taken you know, pay cuts,

132
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 7: but he's really more. He's healthy right now, really healthy,

133
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 7: really well conditioned, and really looking forward to a good start.

134
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 6: He's like a lot.

135
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 7: Of guys that have been in organizations Mike that just

136
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 7: haven't had a lot of winning. You know, he's interested

137
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 7: in winning. I mean, it's not about the money and

138
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 7: all that. It's about staying healthy and helping his team

139
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 7: win games. And for Nick, he's just you know, re

140
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 7: emphasized Mike how important the off season and training camp

141
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 7: is because last year he didn't have me the one

142
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 7: last year he was signed two days before the opener

143
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 7: against the Steelers, made the trip to Pittsburgh and played

144
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 7: in that first game. Now, I think he had three

145
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 7: sacks in that first game. He didn't look like he

146
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 7: lost anything, but he said it's really important the off

147
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 7: season to work with his new teammates like Leonard Floyd

148
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 7: and getting some timing down with guys, getting some pass

149
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 7: rush with them, you know, new defensive coordinator.

150
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 6: He's been able to do that this whole offseason.

151
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 7: Through eight OTA's mini camps and now training really really hard.

152
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 7: I think both of them are looking forward to having

153
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 7: great seasons, respectively, and I think it starts with this

154
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 7: six week period here down here and working out every day.

155
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: It's kind of scary to hear Nick Bosa tell you

156
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: that the best is yet to come. Scary if you're

157
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 2: an opposing quarterback, that's for sure. And look, it's about

158
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 2: more than just sacks. But you see the sack number

159
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: last year, it was eighteen and a half. The year

160
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: before it comes down to ten and a half. So

161
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 2: you know, in his mind, he's thinking, I got to

162
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: get into those mid teens, perhaps the upper teens, potentially

163
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 2: chase the sack record. You know that that's something that's

164
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 2: a point of pride for these guys and always on

165
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: their mind. So yeah, kind of scary to think that

166
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: Nick Bosa is motivated for this upcoming season. We shall

167
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: see what kind of havoc he reeks on quarterbacks and

168
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 2: opposing offensive lines in the twenty twenty four season. Thank you,

169
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 2: Brian Baldie here very much. Gerald McCoy, he used to

170
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 2: hunt quarterbacks. Now he's one of us, and you know what,

171
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 2: we're happy about that because he gets to share his

172
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: knowledge about the NFL, what it takes to play defensive line,

173
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 2: and he'll even talk to you about the importance of

174
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: his youth football Campy, that's all coming up after this

175
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: with Gerald McCoy.

176
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: You a little too small over there.

177
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 8: I do a lot of working out in the off season,

178
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 8: but nothing makes me look like this.

179
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: I thought he threw the ball. That's why I let

180
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: him go. I knew he had the ball to mighty flaming.

181
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: He's so entertaining during his playing career. We said, you

182
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 2: know what, We're gonna give him a second career in television.

183
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 2: It is a former NFL defensive lineman, Gerald McCoy, one

184
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: of our colleagues here at NFL Network, taking some time

185
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: to right us here on the inside of Gerald. What's up, man,

00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,079
Speaker 6: I'm actually in the hotel. I had to take a second.

Speaker 8: But yes, man, my camp is coming up June twenty second,

208
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 8: which is this Saturday. I'm from the South side of

209
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 8: Oklahoma City, and anybody who knows me knows I will say.

210
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 6: That over and over and over again.

211
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 8: Anytime I get in our because I'm extremely proud of

212
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 8: my city. It's not one of those cities where you

213
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 8: could name ten fifteen athletes that come from that city,

214
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 8: especially the South side of Oklahoma City, the inner city,

215
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 8: and there's a lot of kids that don't have the

216
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 8: opportunities to be seen or the opportunities to make it out. Well,

217
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 8: I'm just a living example of that you can make

218
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 8: it out. So when I have any opportunity to go

219
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 8: back to let.

220
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 6: Them see it. In the flesh.

221
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 8: We didn't have a protein growing up. Our protein was

222
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 8: the University of Oklahoma. So people like the Cowboys. So

223
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 8: people hated the Cowboys, but there wasn't pro athletes coming

224
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 8: back talking to us letting us know, hey, you.

225
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 6: Can make it out. I did.

226
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 8: So I'm taking it for myself to be that guy

227
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 8: for this generation and moving forward.

228
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 6: This is my second annual of this version.

229
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 8: I've done it before, but this style of doing it,

230
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 8: this is my second one, and I want this to

231
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 8: be something that continues long after Gerald. I just want

232
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 8: it to just be an annual thing to get these guys,

233
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 8: these kids, boys and girls. Look, you don't think you

234
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 8: can make it out, here's the example I did, so

235
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 8: you can do it too.

236
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: I love to hear that. And you know there are

237
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 3: a ton of Bucks fans in that group. And if

238
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 3: there's one thing that Bucks fans love it to root

239
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 3: against the Atlanta Falcons. I want to go through kind

240
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 3: of get your views on this. You I think you

241
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 3: probably know where I'm going with this. So your old

242
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 3: buddy Matt Ryan, it was announced today is going to

243
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 3: be inducted into the Atlanta Falcons Ring of Honor. Doesn't

244
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 3: that just make you so happy for your good friend,

245
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 3: Matt Ryan.

246
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 6: Yeah. I love Maddy Ice.

247
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: Man.

248
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 8: I'm one of the only competitors who calls him Matty Ice.

249
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 8: You know, Atlanta Falcons fans, Atlanta Falcons faithful, the former players,

250
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 8: they call him Matty Ice. I'm one of the only

251
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 8: opponents that call him Matty Ice because I truly believe that.

252
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 8: I always said when I played against him that Matt

253
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 8: Ryan was flammable. He's one of the quarterbacks that once

254
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 8: he gets started, you give him any type of spark,

255
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 8: there's no stopping man.

256
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 6: He shows that it is envy pre season.

257
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 8: Obviously a lot of people are gonna remember what happened

258
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 8: in the Super Bowl, but his legacy is so much.

259
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 6: Bigger than that.

260
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 8: If you go look at his numbers, is where he

261
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 8: got drafted, what he's done for this city, and all

262
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 8: the numbers and records that he put up, Man Matt

263
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 8: Ryan is one of the best of all time. Definitely

264
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 8: in my eyes, him and Julio.

265
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the team that you're looking at that

266
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 2: you're most excited to see. You'll be part of our

267
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: training camp coverage. Maybe you're excited to see him in training.

268
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 8: Camp, So Chicago Bears. The reason I'm excited to see

269
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 8: Chicago Bears because coaching and situation matters when you have

270
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 8: a young quarterback and Kayler Williams, who everybody thinks is

271
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 8: a generational talent, is walking into the perfect situation. You know,

272
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 8: he has Dj Moore, pro bo Wi receiver, Keenan all On,

273
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 8: a Pro Bow wide receiver, Swills the.

274
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 6: Pro Bowl running back.

275
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 8: He's walking into the perfect situation, an opportunity to thrive

276
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 8: early in his career. So I'm excited to see what

277
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 8: they can do. They have a really good defense, and

278
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 8: you know a lot of people are saying they have

279
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 8: an opportunity to win that division.

280
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 6: I know. I know you have the.

281
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 8: Detroit Lions, you have the Green Bay Packers, who are

282
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 8: both coming off stellar seasons. Whereas the Lions were a

283
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 8: couple of players away from being in the Super Bowl,

284
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 8: but the Bears were also a quarterback and a couple

285
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 8: pieces away, which I think they got those pieces. So

286
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 8: I'm extremely excited to see what the Bears can do,

287
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 8: good or bad. I'm a big Kayler Williams guy because

288
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 8: he's an old you guy. Even when he went to

289
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 8: U to see he always showed love to the University

290
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 8: of Oklahoma, so I'm.

291
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 3: Always I'm going to talk about your former team. He

292
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 3: had a couple of former teams, but Sidney former.

293
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 6: G former team.

294
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, Tampa Bay Buckets. This offseason has actually been

295
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: kind of fascinating. Basically, what they've done is just reboot.

296
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 3: I mean they signed all their stars from Vonte David Winfield,

297
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 3: Baker came back, Mike Evans came back on the un

298
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 3: basically the same White had another one that was a

299
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 3: good signing sign Yes, what do you think of what

300
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 3: the bunksh of that Have they done enough to be

301
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 3: where they should be this year?

302
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 6: Yeah? I think they have.

303
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 8: You know, when you got momentum, you just build on that.

304
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 8: Bringing Baker back, you know, I said before last season,

305
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 8: Baker told us that he was injured. He was dealing

306
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 8: with a lot, but a big portion of it was injuries.

307
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 8: And he said, I'm fully healthy. I've had an off

308
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 8: season to train and not rehab. People they don't understand

309
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 8: the difference in rehabing and training and when you train,

310
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 8: it's a different mindset. You don't have to worry about Okay,

311
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 8: let me take it easy here, let me work on

312
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 8: take some time to work on this, get my motion

313
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 8: and my mobility back and all that. He had an

314
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 8: off season to train. Now you're come into a season

315
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 8: of unknown, and we got what we got. Now, these

316
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 8: guys are more comfortable with each other. Mike Evans is Mike.

317
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 8: Chris Godwin is Chris Godwin. Baker is feeling great. I

318
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 8: was down there when I film the schedule release and

319
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 8: I talked to Baker Mayfield. I'm telling you guys right now,

320
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 8: Baker Mayfield is the wrong guy to get the confidence

321
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 8: that he's down there with. He is so relaxed and

322
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 8: comfortable with where he's at, but he still got that

323
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 8: chip on his shoulder because people are thinking maybe it

324
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 8: was a fluke, maybe it was this, Maybe it was

325
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 8: that he's out to prove everybody wrong or right. And

326
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 8: I believe that the Buccaneers will go on year four

327
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 8: of winning the NFC South. Sorry NFC South. I said

328
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 8: it and I'm standing on it. Oh, this is just

329
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 8: the beginning on Wait till these big cameras come on.

330
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 8: I'm gonna talk crazy to all y'all. Y'all gave the

331
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 8: wrong one the camera, y'alla gave the wrong one to Mike. Buccaneers.

332
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 6: Hey, all right, here we come, baby.

333
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,160

Speaker 2: get your rep and get in that get out early

335
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 2: when we come back for training camp.

336
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: Helmet on pads on.

337
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: Joe Joy inside training camp into the season for NFL Network.

338
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 2: We're so glad to have you as a part of

Speaker 1: That's right.

342
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: When we get the training camp, we're gonna see if

343
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: we can answer some of those questions that we still

344
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 2: have about a few teams matter.

345
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 3: Bac.

00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: Jeffrey tod is gonna be.

00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: With us next to talk about some questions he has

348
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 2: still about the Ravens and some other teams.

349
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: Here's the snap blitz coming.

350
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 9: Allen steps up with the pocket, gonna take off and

351
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,400

00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: You just scrolled them with their.

355
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 9: Bat turn for a huge touchdown run of fifty three yards.

356
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 9: He was on his own side of the field faster.

357
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: Than a speeding bullet. Holy oh, it's like ninety something.

358
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 2: De grease Jeffrey Chidia on the East coast, he said,

359
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 2: snow on the ground and you're just hinting for the

360
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 2: days of playoff football would be back there eventually, but

361
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 2: in the meantime, we're getting ready for training camp. We're

362
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 2: coming out of mini camp. I don't know what hein said,

363
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 2: don't care. Uh So we're coming out of miny camp.

364
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: But we still have questions coming out of mini camps

365
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: that you put up on your first read it sel

366
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 2: dot Com backslash first read for Jeffrey Gidia is eight

367
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 2: burning questions coming out of mini camp. This one's burning

368
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 2: right here. Ken Josh Allen, who we just saw on

369
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 2: that run do it all by himself? Can he thrived

370
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,120
Speaker 2: with his revamped receiving corps.

371
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: You gonna need some help.

372
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think you can, because if you look at

373
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 10: Kansas City, and I know Patrick Mahomes is a different animal.

374
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 10: You saw the way here responding when he lost Tyreek

375
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 10: Hill and was dealing.

376
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 1: With new weapons.

377
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 10: Josh Allen has a similar skill set, a similar potential.

378
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 6: To his game.

379
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 10: You look at the way he played at the end

380
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 10: of last season when Joe Bray, he really had a

381
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 10: hole of that offense where he really unleashed James Cook

382
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 10: and Dalton Kincaid.

383
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: The weapons are there.

384
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 10: I like Kean Coleman as well, and so I see

385
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 10: a lot of versatility. I like the way Josh Allen

386
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 10: played controlled that offense with Joe Brady. Now he has

387
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 10: a whole offseason to work with him. And keep in mind,

388
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 10: Joe Brady said earlier this offseason that everybody's going to

389
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 10: eat this offense.

390
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: I really believe that.

391
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 2: Mike Yeah, Well, there's a lot of guys there that

392
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 2: maybe didn't have as much success elsewhere at the receiver

393
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 2: position now joining Josh Allen in Buffalo and needing to

394
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 2: be maybe more integral pieces than they have been in

395
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 2: the past. Curtis Samuel being one of them, Matt Collins,

396
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 2: Chase Claypool, kJ Hamler with the Broncos, there's more of

397
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,680
Speaker 2: a medical thing that he had a falling out there,

398
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 2: so somebody's going to have to step up. I know

399
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 2: that they're really pleased with what they saw from a

400
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 2: lot of these guys in the spring, particularly Matt Collins.

401
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,959
Speaker 2: They feel like he could be a solid role player

402
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 2: plus for them. So let's see what's going to happen

403
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 2: with the Buffalo Bills as we get into camp and

404
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 2: into the season with this supporting cast. We're talking about

405
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 2: number two on your burning questions that we're going to

406
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: get into here, a question that.

407
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 1: We've been asking for quite some time.

408
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 2: There it is, will DeShawn Watson live up to that

409
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 2: contract that you're seeing right on the screen. And the

410
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 2: last two words are the most important part yet fully guaranteed.

411
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 10: Yeah, and more expensive. You know, the first years of

412
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 10: his contract was the bargain part of it. Right now he's.

413
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: Becoming a lot more expensive.

414
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 10: He's going to be a sixty three million dollar cap

415
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 10: hit this year and moving forward the next two years.

416
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 10: So he's got to start playing at a higher level,

417
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 10: and I'm not certain he's going to be able to

418
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 10: do that. You know, he's played in twelve games the

419
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 10: last two years, obviously missed the suspension was a big

420
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 10: part of the first one. But that shoulder injury last

421
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,439
Speaker 10: year knocked him out. He's got to be healthy. I

422
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 10: know they're taking their time with the rehab and he

423
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 10: didn't throw until March and didn't only through in seven

424
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 10: on seven in mini camps.

425
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 6: But he's got to bring it on.

426
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: He's got to definitely deliver this time.

427
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 3: Ian, Well, let me bring up a couple of caveats here. Yes,

428
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: it is an expensive contract, obviously, anytime you have a

429
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 3: fully guaranteed deal, it is notworthy.

430
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 1: It is important.

431
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 3: That was a great contract for Deshaun Watson, but as

432
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 3: time has kind of moved on, he's gone down, down

433
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 3: down the quarterback ranking for highest paid now the eighth

434
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 3: highest paid quarterback. So not a bargain by any means,

435
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 3: certainly not as crazy expensive as it was. As far

436
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 3: as he fully guaranteed deal. Quarterbacks almost never get cut,

437
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: they actually get traded. It's just like that if something

438
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 3: terrible happened, the contract was standing the way. But here's

439
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 3: the other caveat. Before he got hurt last year, before

440
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 3: he had that very strange shoulder injury that actually played through,

441
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 3: let it come back during and then had surgery ending

442
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: his season. Afterward, he was playing really well. He was

443
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 3: showing signs of being that quarterback that they traded for

444
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 3: being that franchise superstar guy. Desligus. Rehab has gone well.

445
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 3: It sounds like, if anything, they've had to pull him back.

446
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 3: I expect him to be like his old self in

447
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 3: training camp and finally finally pay off that big time

448
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 3: contract at the Browns game.

449
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, that game against the Ravens that he had, that

450
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 2: was something that was the oldest Shaun Watson that we

451
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 2: saw in that game. See Ian, I listened to all that.

452
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 2: I do care what you have to say. It's just

453
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 2: when we were coming in, I couldn't hear you and

454
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 2: we had to move on, kind of like we have

455
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 2: to move on right now. Speaking of the Ravens, their

456
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 2: offensive line, Jeffrey jedia another burning question, will it be

457
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 2: reliable for Baltimore?

458
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 10: Yeah, so much excitement about Derek Henry showing up and

459
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 10: Lamar Jackson coming off as second MVP, but they lost

460
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 10: three linemen, only Tyler Linderbaum and Ronnie Stanley the only

461
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 10: two guys left in that line, And so a lot

462
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 10: of positional battle is going on here. And I know

463
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 10: their head coach John Harbat talked about he'd like to

464
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 10: have this thing settled by the second week of training camp,

465
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 10: but it might take a little bit longer than that

466
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 10: because you're talking about players moving positions and being juggled

467
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 10: around trying to see who fits where the good thing

468
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 10: is here. The Ravens has done a great job in

469
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 10: the past trying to add new players. They developed, draft picks,

470
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 10: they found veteran so I imagine, Judy, they will work

471
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 10: this out again.

472
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 4: The other good news is that Tyler Linderbaum is a

473
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 4: premiere center, and that's good news because the guards on

474
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 4: either side of him are going to be new.

475
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: They lost both of them.

476
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 4: The other thing, as you pointed out, is they have

477
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 4: a track record of doing this, of developing young offensive linemen,

478
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 4: putting them in there.

479
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 6: It works out.

480
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 4: Joe Dallas Andris their offensive line coach, longtime offensive line coach.

481
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 4: He's done a really good job at sort of cycling

482
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 4: guys in and developing and they come together and it works. Certainly,

483
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,239
Speaker 4: the onus is going to be on them getting the

484
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 4: five set as early as they can in training camp,

485
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 4: because certainly you do not want this offensive line to

486
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 4: be a problem. It's been one of the consistently best

487
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 4: offensive lines in the NFL for the last few years,

488
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,199
Speaker 4: and that is what has powered a running attack that

489
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson has been leading. And now, of course you

490
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 4: have Derrick Henry to come in to lower the boom.

491
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 4: So certainly you want to get this offensive line set

492
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:54,959
Speaker 4: as early as they can this summer.

493
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 2: Sometimes you see a team that's had as much sustained

494
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 2: success as the Ravens have had in the ability to

495
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 2: compile talent you got to do with jeff Dida does say, Hey,

496
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 2: I don't know on paper, it doesn't look like it

497
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 2: to me, but you just have the trust that in

498
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 2: the end they're going to be able to figure it out.

499
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 2: What are the other five burning questions from Jeffer j

500
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 2: d You're gonna have to visit NFL dot com backslash.

501
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: First read to find out what those are.

502
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 2: He's even got some answers for you, Jeffrey Jada, Thank

503
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 2: you very much, my man. We're gonna stick with the

504
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 2: Ravens here. There's Baldy Baldi everywhere. I mean, he's in Florida.

505
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 2: He's a Jets Mini camp, He's a giantsman in the camp.

506
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 2: He's at Ravens Mini Camp shooting Zave flowers, telling us

507
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: how excited he is.

508
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: Giving us breakdowns right there.

509
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 2: He's going to join us right now to give us

510
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 2: his breakdown of everything he saw there at Ravens Camp. Particularly,

511
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 2: let's talk Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. You know a

512
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 2: little lightning and thunder. I mean we've heard that reference before.

513
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 2: When you got the speed and the power and that

514
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 2: these two provide, I mean, how effective and dangerous can

515
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 2: this ob Well.

516
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 6: I mean it could be unbelievably effective.

517
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 7: And I also share Jeff Toda's you know, burning questions.

518
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 7: That's why I went down there last Thursday to look

519
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 7: at the offensive line of what Joe Dallas Andrews is doing.

520
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 7: But Lamar has certainly slimmed down anybody that has watched

521
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 7: Lamarrow over the years, this is the leanest he has

522
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,400
Speaker 7: ever been. That's his number one target, Zave Flowers from

523
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 7: a year ago. And let's face it, I mean, Derek

524
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 7: Henry looks like a superhero right now.

525
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 6: I mean he is just there's nobody else like him.

526
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 7: And then if you look at the rebuilt offensive line

527
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 7: that included Daniel Flelay at right guard, who just happens

528
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 7: to be a human eclipse at three hundred and eighty

529
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 7: two pounds playing right guard, you might not even see

530
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 7: Dereck Henry back there. He might actually acclude you know what,

531
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 7: he is number twenty two back there. So I think

532
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 7: there's a lot of optimism there. I say this, Mike

533
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 7: and I have been saying this. The Ravens Restock offensive

534
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,640
Speaker 7: line in the way Walmart restock shelves, that's what they do.

535
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 7: They drafted Andrew Bore Ben Cleveland has been there for

536
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 7: a number of year. They brought in Josh Jones from Houston.

537
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 7: He's started twenty four games in this league. They've got

538
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 7: actually a lot of depth on this offensive line, and

539
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 7: so I think they will have a chance to get

540
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 7: the five best up there, including the Pro Bowl Tyler

541
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 7: Linderbaum at center. And one guy I would say looked

542
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 7: out for in this team is Rashad Bateman. He was

543
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 7: hurt and injured much of his first two years, got

544
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 7: much healthier last year and just watching him practice, like

545
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 7: this guy is a tremendous route runner. He's got size,

546
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 7: he hasn't lost any speed whatsoever. I expect him to

547
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 7: be a big focal point of his passing games.

548
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 6: Lamar this season got.

549
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 2: Himself a contract extension this offseason that has him in

550
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 2: Baltimore or under contract in Baltimore through the twenty twenty

551
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 2: six season. So again, this is a Ravens front office

552
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 2: that makes a lot of smart decisions. So when they

553
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 2: do that, that tells you what they think is coming

554
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 2: for Rashad Bateman. So that matches your assessment of him. Bald,

555
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 2: you look like you're ready to go out and hit

556
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 2: the town, or you know, grab yourself a nice dinner

557
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 2: or whatever.

558
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: I got bad news. You're coming back. So we just

559
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 1: a little bit.

560
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 2: Well, you know, that's that's what happens when you're this

561
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 2: good and you break it down the way you do.

562
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 2: We got to have more and more and more the Ravens.

563
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: They've got sweet uniforms. I mean they've got a bunch

564
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,239
Speaker 2: of different varieties and all this suf Well now they

565
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 2: got the alternate helmet that they revealed for the twenty

566
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 2: twenty four season.

567
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: It's purple. Eventually we're gonna get a clean shot of it.

568
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 1: You know, they do these uniform.

569
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 2: Reveals and it's like, can I just see the uniform?

570
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: You give me these little flashes.

571
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 2: Uh, it's got the bird looking directly at you from

572
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 2: the side of the helmet as opposed to the one

573
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 2: that's usually looking forward. So Raven there it is. Ravage

574
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 2: is adding more sweet Litz, sweet Litz. Trayvon Walker, Jaguars linebacker.

575
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 2: He is about to join us live and oh the

576
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,199
Speaker 2: effects is that on his end?

577
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 1: That is amazing. I love that Trayvon Walker coming up

578
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: after this.

579
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 2: There you see Trayvon Walker as well as a few

580
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 2: other Georgia football players at his youth football camp for

581
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 2: the meet and greet chance to sign autographs for these kids,

582
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 2: giving them memories that they will remember for their entire life.

583
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 2: Trayvon Walker now the Jaguars linebacker, the former number one

584
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 2: overall pick back in twenty twenty two. This is from

585
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 2: the Trayvon Walker Foundation free youth football camp that happened

586
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 2: this past weekend.

587
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: Tell us all about it.

588
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 2: I heard that there were hundreds of kids in attendance

589
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 2: in Thomas and Georgia.

590
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

591
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 11: Man, so we had a blast. It was a little

592
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 11: bit over four hundred kids that came out from a

593
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 11: lot of the surrounding counties, and I feel like a

594
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 11: lot of the kids had a lot of fun, a

595
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 11: lot of smiles on the kids' faces, and that's what

596
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 11: I do it for.

597
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: Well, great work by you there.

598
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 4: You actually did a lot of great work on the

599
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 4: fields last year too.

600
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: Let's talk about that.

601
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 4: You had ten sacks last season. Your new teammate Eric

602
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 4: Armstead said you could be the best edge in the league.

603
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 4: What do you feel clicked for you last year with

604
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 4: your game?

605
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 11: I feel like I was definitely a lot more comfortable

606
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:06,640
Speaker 11: in the scheme.

607
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 1: Within the scheme, it was just.

608
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 11: It was time for me to just go play freely

609
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 11: and not be thinking as much. So I feel like

610
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 11: that helped me take a major step into my second

611
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 11: year and now it's more of a mental game for

612
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 11: me than physical.

613
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 2: Doug Peterson, your head coach, said recently at your mini camp.

614
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: This is a quote from Peterson quote.

615
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 2: He's still He's a young player that will be counted

616
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 2: on even in a leadership role on defense and amongst

617
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 2: the team. Great kid, humble, hardworking, wants to improve, once

618
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: to learn, and he's still growing. When you hear that

619
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 2: from your head coach, what kind of feelings is that

620
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 2: engender inside of you?

621
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,479
Speaker 11: It's just one of those feelings that I have guys

622
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 11: counting on me, and I've throughout my time of playing football,

623
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 11: from collegiate level to now, I've had a lot of

624
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 11: guys looking up to me to go out there and

625
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 11: handle my business, and they looked at me in the

626
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 11: leadership role. They know the type person I am and

627
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 11: the type player that I am, so obviously I'm just

628
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 11: in this off season, I've been trying to get better

629
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 11: and hopefully it continues continuously elevate to be one of

630
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 11: the best players in the league.

631
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 6: One day.

632
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 4: I know during the spring you talked about the big

633
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 4: extensions that Josh Allen and Trevor Lawrence God have fueled

634
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 4: you in what ways if they fueled you, like, what

635
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 4: have you gotten from watching those two guys?

636
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 11: Just from watching those two guys alone, they show you

637
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 11: a lot of the things that they do inside the building,

638
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 11: on the field, and off the field, just from them

639
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 11: being one of the first people in the building to

640
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 11: one of the last peoples leaving out of the building,

641
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 11: and just a lot of the extra things that they

642
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 11: put into the game that that you're you probably won't

643
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 11: get from the game unless you put in that extra

644
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 11: So that's definitely fuel to the fire for me. And

645
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 11: just seeing those guys doing it the right way, I mean,

646
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 11: who wouldn't want to follow in those footsteps to obviously

647
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 11: be in that position one day as well.

648
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 2: Now, usually a guy signs a big deal, you make

649
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: them pick up a dinner tab or something like that,

650
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 2: make him take everybody out.

651
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: Josh Allen was courteous.

652
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 2: Enough to do it in April when you guys were around,

653
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 2: you had plenty of time left in the spring. Trevor

654
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 2: does it as soon as many camp's over and thinks

655
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 2: you're not going to remember by the.

656
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 1: Time you get back to training camp. You can't let

657
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: that happen.

658
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 2: There's got to be something he's got to pick up

659
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 2: the tab.

660
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 11: On, right, Yeah, we definitely gonna make sure that happens.

661
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 11: It's a lot to go around for everybody. I hope

662
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 11: he thinks the same as well.

663
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 2: So you are now contract eligible after this upcoming season.

664
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 2: You play three years, then you're eligible for an extension.

665
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 2: So when Judy's asking you about that that being a

666
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 2: motivating factor for you, you're saying, well, if I have

667
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 2: myself a monster year, I'm going to be the guys

668
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 2: able to pick up the tab the next offseason.

669
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 11: Right, Yes, sir, I'm always always been one of those guys,

670
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 11: even if without the contract or with the contract, I'll

671
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 11: still probably be one of those guys, just often willing

672
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 11: to do it on my own.

673
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 4: You got a new defensive coordinator down there. The defense

674
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 4: is going to look a little bit different. How do

675
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 4: you expect your role to change? Or maybe at balls

676
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 4: and also with Eric Armstead, they're like, how is everybody

677
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 4: working together on that defense?

678
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: Right now?

679
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 11: And right now the defense, I definitely can say the

680
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 11: defense is headed in a great direction for the type

681
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 11: of players that we have on the defense, and I

682
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 11: just feel like a less a lot of the guys

683
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 11: up front and then the box. This play a lot

684
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 11: more free, not a lot of thinking. So I really

685
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 11: feel like with the new defensive coordinatorro on this and

686
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 11: he's done a great job so far, coming in being

687
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 11: one of those guys that one of those coaches that's

688
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 11: just out he's actually out there coaching.

689
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 5: Man.

690
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: He wants this players to get better.

691
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 11: So I feel like the defense this year we should

692
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 11: take a major step from when we were last year.

693
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 2: You know, you look at the recent history of the

694
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: NFL draft and you go back to twenty eighteen quarterback,

695
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen quarterback, quarterback, quarterback, linebacker.

696
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: That's you, my man, pass.

697
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: Rusher Travon Walker, than twenty three and twenty four quarterback quarterback.

698
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: So of the last what is that eight drafts, only

699
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 2: one non quarterback, only one defensive player pick?

700
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 6: There?

701
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: It is you?

702
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 2: Is that a point of pride for you and something

703
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 2: that you're carrying with you.

704
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 11: Most definitely that's a point of pride and some that

705
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 11: I always cared with me for the simple fact of

706
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 11: just how the game is evolving. It shows how much

707
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 11: past rushers are looked upon with in today's game. Would

708
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,719
Speaker 11: it be in a more passing league. So that's definitely

709
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 11: something that I'll carry on with me forever.

710
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: All Right, you just got through the spring.

711
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 4: You obviously see the offense every day. Trevor is coming

712
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 4: back off what was an injury riddled season for him,

713
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 4: got some new faces there.

714
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: How did the offense look to you?

715
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 6: Man?

716
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 11: The offense looked like they haven't haven't missed a beat.

717
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 11: A lot of the guys that are still trying to

718
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 11: get some of that chemistry with some of the newer guys,

719
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 11: the younger Roe receivers and things. But so far, I

720
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 11: feel like the offense has been doing a pretty good

721
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 11: job on offense. A lot of the guys are a

722
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 11: lot more comfortable as well within the scheme of the

723
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 11: offense that they're running, and I feel like it's going

724
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 11: to be a pretty good year for.

725
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 2: Before we let you go, what was the best thing

726
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 2: you heard from a kid or a story or something

727
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 2: that maybe he said during your football camp this past

728
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 2: weekend there in Thomas and Jordan.

729
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 11: So one thing that actually just hit me right away

730
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 11: soon as you said that was a young kid's probably

731
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 11: all of nine years old, just hit him talk about

732
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 11: his faith, telling me to have faith in God and

733
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 11: continue continuously blessing the community.

734
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: He was just telling me to keep.

735
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 6: Doing what I'm doing.

736
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 11: This is a nine year old that I'm talking about too,

737
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 11: So that's obviously some motivational factor. I'm big on God,

738
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 11: and obviously that's something that he brought up and that

739
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 11: stuck with me. But there was definitely a lot of

740
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 11: practition outside of that.

741
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, four hundred kids getting the experience of being with

742
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: an NFL player, but that NFL player also getting something

743
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 2: back from the kids.

744
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: So that is a great story. We appreciate that.

745
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 2: If you give us a thumbs up on the way,

746
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 2: I want to see the fireworks come back up.

747
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: If you give us a thumbs up, yes there is.

748
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: He is going out with a literal bang. Trayvon Walker

749
00:33:58,280 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: enjoying the downtime.

750
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 2: Can't wait to see training camping into the twenty twenty

751
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 2: four season with the Jaguars.

752
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: Sarah, Thank you all, thank you, appreciate you.

753
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,320
Speaker 2: This week at the NFL Media Studios in Los Angeles,

754
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 2: the league hosted a fourth annual Ozzie Knew some general

755
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 2: Manager Forum and the seventh Annual Quarterback Coaching Summit. NFL coaches, gms,

756
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 2: and front office executives addressed a diverse crowd of college

757
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 2: and NFL personnel looking to advance their careers through professional

758
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 2: development and networking opportunities. Here's Falcons General manager Terry Fontno

759
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 2: on why connecting with peers outside of your own organization

760
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 2: can be beneficial.

761
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 12: It's tough initially when you think about it, because all

762
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 12: you want to do is be the very best you

763
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 12: can be for your particular team. That's all you want

764
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 12: to worry about. But then you have to kind of

765
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 12: think about it, like if I have self improvement and

766
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 12: it's going to ultimately help our team, and all the

767
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:54,399
Speaker 12: having those conversations about the different areas and talking about

768
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 12: whether you're talking to other coaches or coordinators or whether

769
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 12: you're talking to personnel guys, you're going to learn a lot,

770
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 12: going to share with them as well, and that's going

771
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 12: to ultimately help yourself and that's going to help the organization.

772
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 12: So I got aggressive in twenty twenty. In twenty twenty,

773
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 12: before the year before, I went on interviews and every

774
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 12: Friday on the way home, I would have conversations with

775
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 12: different coaches, different people.

776
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 6: Around the league.

777
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 12: And it's not just to prepare yourself, but it's also

778
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 12: once you're in the seat, it's valuable. Look, I talked

779
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 12: to Andrew Berry over the last several weeks. I've talked

780
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 12: to him about a few different things that we're working,

781
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 12: some restructuring that we're doing, some personal things. I've talked

782
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 12: to him about some and he's helping me a lot.

783
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 12: This is one of the smartest guys I've ever been around.

784
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 12: So now I'm leaning on him in those areas and

785
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 12: he's been very open, sharing the job descriptions, sharing some

786
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 12: different people that can He's been very helpful in those areas,

787
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 12: and we do all want to help each other.

788
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 2: Andrew Berry joined the during this program on Monday in

789
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 2: between sets of curls. Apparently we saw Jackie Davidson with

790
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 2: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. She will be joining the program

791
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 2: later this week. As we discussed the importance of this

792
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 2: summit and the importance of helping to promote these diverse candidates, Judy,

793
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 2: I'm going to turn to you here. What's a name

794
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,760
Speaker 2: that you're looking at as a potential candidate to land

795
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 2: a general manager job a head coaching job moving forward.

796
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 4: This is on the GM side. Brandon Brown, who is

797
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 4: now the assistant GM for the New York Giants, but

798
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 4: has long been talked about in the League as a

799
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 4: rising star of the executive ranks. He interviewed with the

800
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 4: Chargers this year, obviously didn't get a job still with

801
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 4: the Giants, but really well regarded. Going back to his

802
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 4: days with the Eagles, he's been part of accelerator programs

803
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 4: that the league does for potential GM candidates, So certainly

804
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 4: a name a figure to watch as we go into

805
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 4: the next hiring cycle.

806
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:48,240
Speaker 1: You mentioned the Chargers.

807
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 3: The guy who did get the Charger's job was Joe

808
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,280
Speaker 3: hoort Ties, and the first thing he did was bringing

809
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 3: a top lieutenant, Chad Alexander, formerly of the Jets, formerly

810
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 3: of the Baltimore aven You figure out you look at

811
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 3: who Chad ali Janner has learned from.

812
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas ert Acosta.

813
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 3: Hard to be that Curly, an up and coming name,

814
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 3: might feel a little early for him to get a

815
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 3: general manager job, and this is certainly a name to watch,

816
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 3: especially as the Chargers appeared to be on the rise

817
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 3: with Bortiz and then of course with Jim Harvel.

818
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 6: Good choice.

819
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 7: I I'm want to go into the head coaching side

820
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 7: because the Raiders defense coordinator is Patrick Brand and anybody

821
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 7: who's been around Patrick brahanm knows that he's a brilliant

822
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 7: football mind.

823
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 6: The Raiders finished ninth in defense a year ago.

824
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 7: But he's been in the league for fifteen years and

825
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 7: a riot of positions, defense, line, linebackers, run game coordinator, assistant,

826
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 7: head coach.

827
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,280
Speaker 6: He's had all the titles.

828
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, by the way, he is a Yale educated

829
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,320
Speaker 7: man plays football there. But I think this is a

830
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 7: guy that knows how to build a staff, knows how

831
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 7: to have a vision that every team is looking for.

832
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 7: I think he's paying his duds. He's only forty five

833
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 7: years old. He's still very young, and I think he's

834
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 7: a guy that's deserving of a great deal of attention

835
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 7: in next year's hiring site.

836
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,720
Speaker 2: Antonio Piers a big believer in Patrick Graham and vice versa,

837
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 2: those guys out there in Las Vegas. So perhaps Graham

838
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 2: will get his crack at being a head coach sometime

839
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:14,760
Speaker 2: in the near future.

840
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: Thank you, Baldy.

841
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 2: I'm looking at back on the GM side. Ian Cunningham,

842
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 2: the assistant general manager with the Chicago Bears. Now the

843
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,959
Speaker 2: Bears potentially going to be a hot team. We talked

844
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 2: about how much they've built around Caleb Williams before he

845
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,720
Speaker 2: even arrived there. So you've got the potential for folks

846
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 2: around the league to look at the Bears and say, hey, how.

847
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: Did they do that, how did they build that?

848
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, I want to hire one of

849
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 2: those guys away, Ian Cunningham.

850
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: He has been in the mix.

851
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 2: He's been down to the final few for a few jobs,

852
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 2: including the Cardinals and the Titans in recent years. At

853
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 2: some point will be the guy that is tabbed to

854
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 2: be a general manager.

855
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,799
