- 0:01[SPEAKER_00]: The box just wrapped up their first day of many camp of 2026 and there were a handful plays made today including multiple touchdowns from multiple rookies.
- 0:10[SPEAKER_00]: We also found out who was here, who's not Vita Vaya was in attendance.
- 0:15[SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk about him a little bit.
- 0:17[SPEAKER_00]: later as well.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_00]: We also saw Bucky Irving out here.
- 0:21[SPEAKER_00]: He was spotted and we had a play from a veteran on the defensive side of the ball with a takeaway, but with me as River Wells, our lead editor at buckstandbeta.com.
- 0:29[SPEAKER_00]: Day one of mini camp is wrapped up, River.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_00]: Just your first thoughts of what you saw today on your end.
- 0:35[SPEAKER_01]: It's hot.
- 0:39[SPEAKER_00]: Today was a little hot, but as you can tell right now, we're in some shade.
- 0:43[SPEAKER_01]: We got some clouds over right now, so let's go.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_01]: It also might be about to rain those, so we'll see how that goes.
- 0:47[SPEAKER_01]: But no, it was a good practice.
- 0:50[SPEAKER_01]: We had a referees there today as well, and some players that we didn't have during OTA's were here.
- 0:57[SPEAKER_01]: We'll talk about those.
- 1:00[SPEAKER_01]: Many mostly an extension of training care of OTAs and and what's going to happen leading up the training camp.
- 1:06[SPEAKER_01]: I should say some install getting use of some team chemistry right that's right Caleb it's hot out here man.
- 1:13[SPEAKER_01]: Caleb's in Boston for you guys so you know I isn't that's a point about this heat anymore so he has no room to say anything about this subject or anything qualified about Florida and that's okay um
- 1:23[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, it's it's going well.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_01]: We'll see what happens these next two days If there's any significant developments or changes or big plays, but for now, solid first set
- 1:34[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
- 1:35[SPEAKER_00]: So let's get right to it ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:36[SPEAKER_00]: So let's start off with Vita Vaya.
- 1:38[SPEAKER_00]: He was one of those that we were keeping a close eye on along with too.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, to Mohammed, who is a newcomer coming from the Detroit Lions.
- 1:46[SPEAKER_00]: He was not in the ten and stirring the OTAs, but he was here at mandatory mini camp and that dude is Jack.
- 1:53[SPEAKER_00]: That is a big boy to look at.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_00]: Close up in person, but Mohammed looked good out there actually asked Todd Bolsa about him.
- 2:00[SPEAKER_00]: He said,
- 2:04[SPEAKER_00]: was doing film study author out of TAs so they, you know, not shocked once he got out here he knew where he needed to be in Todd Bowles' defense.
- 2:11[SPEAKER_00]: So things are going well there and then beat a veil was the one of course he's hard to miss out there but he was here he was in shorts, sneakers and was in his jersey and it was pretty clear that right off the bat that beat a veil was not going to be participating river but what did Todd Bowles say because I know he was asked about it earlier during his interview.
- 2:31[SPEAKER_01]: Well, this is a fun one top also.
- 2:33[SPEAKER_01]: He's healthy.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_01]: He's just not practicing.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_01]: So suppose they just want to rest him until training camp.
- 2:41[SPEAKER_01]: He said, oh, he told me like, training camp.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_01]: He is healthy.
- 2:44[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, he said they didn't need to see him at many camp.
- 2:47[SPEAKER_01]: So he's just not participating.
- 2:49[SPEAKER_01]: He's just out there in shorts and sneakers.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's just hanging out.
- 2:54[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's like you said Todd's like, don't need them.
- 2:58[SPEAKER_00]: Don't need them out there.
- 2:59[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, of course, I think you want to have everybody out there.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_00]: But like we always say, it is shorts and t-shirts and definitely in the trenches, these guys don't get going until we get into what that third day of training camp whenever we're able to have shells on and actually guys can hit each other for real.
- 3:18[SPEAKER_00]: So Vito Veya is what it is and he's to kind of probably kind of get back into the motion as well because he is always going and doing his workouts all throughout the off season and so he does that and I always, how am I always freaking the name, River, that he's with.
- 3:35[SPEAKER_01]: Are you talking about?
- 3:36[SPEAKER_00]: who beat a van works out with.
- 3:38[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and down the count, too.
- 3:39[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, if you're looking for some cool champion, yeah, that's a better answer.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's that big of a deal.
- 3:44[SPEAKER_00]: You forgot that you just really had.
- 3:46[SPEAKER_00]: That's a free time now.
- 3:48[SPEAKER_00]: That's really two times now.
- 3:49[SPEAKER_00]: It's like always, you know, one of those names again, you're heading, you just can't figure it out.
- 3:52[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that's the one.
- 3:53[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, he works out with Sue all throughout the Aussie.
- 3:55[SPEAKER_00]: He's been doing that for a few years now in Todd.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_00]: actually talked about Viva Viva.
- 3:59[SPEAKER_00]: I think at the first minute can we ask about, you know, where's Viva Viva at?
- 4:04[SPEAKER_00]: He said, you know, he's doing his regular workouts with Sue.
- 4:06[SPEAKER_00]: So he looks good.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_00]: He looks trimmed up as he's had, I would say the last two years since he's really worked on his bodies.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_00]: So yes, Viva Viva is here, but not participating.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_00]: We did see Bucky Irving participating, though.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_00]: He's going a little bit more work in with Baker Mayfield on air.
- 4:19[SPEAKER_00]: He's not doing team drills right now.
- 4:21[SPEAKER_00]: That will likely happen once we get into training camp, but a good sign for Bucky.
- 4:25[SPEAKER_00]: Todd Bowles kept it short and simple.
- 4:27[SPEAKER_00]: Today, when asked about Bucky and said he looks good, he's looking fast, looking forward to seeing what more he can do throughout mid-Ecamp, but yeah, I think we'll see more of Bucky Irving.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_00]: River, once we get into trying to give it now to another comment that you were talking to me about the cornerback situation today.
- 4:43[SPEAKER_00]: And why promise we are going to get to some of these plays by the rookies and some of these touchdowns, but it's worth noting the cornerback situation.
- 4:51[SPEAKER_00]: What kind of stood out to you there on that end?
- 4:55[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so it was not great.
- 4:57[SPEAKER_01]: There's a few cornerbacks injured.
- 5:00[SPEAKER_01]: We had bedroom morsons still out top bulls that he was suffering a leg injury last week that he'd be ready for mandatory mini camp.
- 5:07[SPEAKER_01]: Not the case so far in day one.
- 5:09[SPEAKER_01]: On top of that, the two cornerbacks at the bucks brought in, mainly the special team, the people there that goes.
- 5:15[SPEAKER_01]: Mainly the special team's people, but as well as some cornerbacks, that's Chase Lucas from the 49ers came in all of the Dallas campus.
- 5:22[SPEAKER_01]: Neither of them participated either.
- 5:24[SPEAKER_01]: And that means that for the most part on the outside, quarterback to Josh Hayes and the Marion Williams to take a run of the reps today.
- 5:31[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Jacob Parrish out there, taking some outside reps, and at Nickle and he has I'm a column taking outside reps and at Nickle's bell, right?
- 5:38[SPEAKER_01]: So those two players took the crunch of snaps the first scene, but then there's not a lot of quarterback depth on side of that, guys.
- 5:45[SPEAKER_01]: So they got to see if they can get some guys healthy.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_01]: by training camp, but for right now, it's slim thickens and they've got Josh Hayes and the Marion Williams who have both the word.
- 5:55[SPEAKER_00]: I think you're just glad to give up on the hat there over at least.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_00]: No, I'm not.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_00]: No, not.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_01]: Watch this.
- 5:59[SPEAKER_01]: Watch this.
- 5:59[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to tighten it.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to tighten it.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_00]: If you're not going to give it up, okay, okay, we're definitely getting some coming in.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_00]: There we go.
- 6:06[SPEAKER_01]: I can keep you running coming up after this.
- 6:08[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, the safari rides up here and I'll be heading over to Bush Garden.
- 6:11[SPEAKER_00]: So, okay.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I could see Rayne over to Raymond James Stadium over there on that end.
- 6:17[SPEAKER_00]: So it's end coming, but it kind of feels good.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: But let's keep going.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_00]: Here, let's go over to some 11 on 11, the best time of practice.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_00]: Really goal line, but 11 on 11 is great.
- 6:27[SPEAKER_00]: We got brit.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_00]: Chris Brasswell actually got back there.
- 6:30[SPEAKER_00]: He caused a tipball early on in that team period.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_00]: Ruben Bane also, I see a comment in here about him, Tampa Bane.
- 6:37[SPEAKER_00]: He sure did make a play today.
- 6:39[SPEAKER_00]: Todd Bols talked about him after practice just says,
- 6:42[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think Scott from the computer report had to ask Todd what is impressed him the most about Throughout the OTA's rookie minicam, but now I'm a minicam mandatory minicam not a minicam's happening
- 6:56[SPEAKER_00]: he said intelligence said ruin bane's intelligence is what is standing out early sent his arrival and to Tampa and I can kind of see when we're watching ruin bane him off to the side he's listening well he's just a guy that it's kind of taken it all in he has I haven't even seen him really say a word yet since
- 7:14[SPEAKER_00]: Coming out to some of these practices, he's just literally learning from some of these veterans that are over there to his coaching staff as well.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_00]: They're very hands-on with him, but he's obviously an explosive player.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_00]: He's one that's got some fast twitchiness as well.
- 7:26[SPEAKER_00]: We just want to be able to see all of that come into fruition until we get the pads on.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_00]: We did have a couple of dropped interceptions today.
- 7:35[SPEAKER_00]: Now there was an interception later on, which we'll get to.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_00]: Nate Jackson had an opportunity there for an interception that came just right to his hands and just did not It's not able to bring it in and then also to Zion McCullum, which I thought who was having a really good day and he's still a yes He had that chance and you know Todd balls is not gonna like that now we're getting ran.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_00]: I'm getting a little sprinkled on over here
- 7:58[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Zyne McCullum, I thought had a solid day overall, but did have a drop of that interception, and there was some strong potential for him to come away with it, but could not bring it down river, could not bring it down.
- 8:12[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Zyne and Nick Jackson, Mrs. Interceptions, and also, Mike Millen had a chance to get a screen pass, and in 177 work, and it came off his hands too.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_01]: So, bad day, guys, for sure hands at Tampa Bay.
- 8:28[SPEAKER_01]: book in here's known for many camp they got to work on that but it's it's meant for many camp nothing to be concerned about too big but uh at the moment but definitely some of the keep watch on they've trusted they want to get these guys catching footballs and dinner in turnovers at a hard time but that last time they want to make sure that's not the case this year so keep an eye on that
- 8:48[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, 100% so let's go over to the goal line session where we saw a handful of touchdowns being made out right in front of us over here and this end zone we had first team Baker may field first play was on air.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_00]: and it gets picked off by Antoine Wynfield Junior, and I'll say something.
- 9:08[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was Garrett Green, who was on her practice squad last year.
- 9:14[SPEAKER_00]: He made a nice play on Antoine Wynfield earlier in the practice, but when we got him to go online,
- 9:19[SPEAKER_00]: Baker may feel it gets picked off by Antoine Winfield, but then he responds.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_00]: Baker may feel it responds and is able to find pain drum easily for a touch on off the left side of the end zone.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_00]: Baker may feel it is taking care of the ball firm and Jordi all throughout OTAs since we've seen him.
- 9:34[SPEAKER_00]: This was just one of those interceptions where Antoine Winfield went up.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he was flying in the air to come down with the river.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_01]: He was a great play, he read it perfectly.
- 9:45[SPEAKER_01]: He kind of stayed in the middle of the zone and just kind of was patient.
- 9:49[SPEAKER_01]: And when Mayfield's the ball up, he jumped in there and grabbed it really good and stings to a play from Antoineville, Jr. over here to see him.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_01]: And once he's close to the ball, but he wasn't as much last year to have both of the day at a baby sit in some players.
- 10:00[SPEAKER_01]: But now he is.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_01]: So that was a great play.
- 10:04[SPEAKER_01]: And then that's not what happened afterward though, the next three of us.
- 10:08[SPEAKER_00]: We have to move into our cars and do this show live from inside the car because as you can tell right now.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_00]: We're getting rain, definitely, some good rain.
- 10:17[SPEAKER_00]: And it's only gonna get worse.
- 10:19[SPEAKER_00]: So we're gonna keep moving here.
- 10:21[SPEAKER_00]: There were a couple other touchdowns as well and as you can see in the title, it was made by some rookies that were involved.
- 10:29[SPEAKER_00]: One of those being Bauer Sharpe, who caught a touchdown there, I think it was, I don't know if it was from Jalen Daniels or if it was also from, or if it was from Bayslack.
- 10:38[SPEAKER_00]: Do you remember that river?
- 10:39[SPEAKER_00]: Who?
- 10:40[SPEAKER_00]: Bauer Sharpe.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_01]: It was probably, it was it probably the browning or dangles.
- 10:47[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think I saw a base like, don't know if you're there.
- 10:49[SPEAKER_00]: So I guess through it, well, I'm getting in the car.
- 10:52[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I do like me man, I'm already out of the way.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, it was a side arm throw.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_01]: I want to say it was maybe browning.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_01]: I was a side arm throw that kind of carved the defense and found Bauer Sharpen.
- 11:04[SPEAKER_01]: He called it in pretty good amount of space.
- 11:07[SPEAKER_01]: So that was Bauer Sharpen touchdown right there.
- 11:10[SPEAKER_01]: You had a nice one from Ted first to the back of the end zone.
- 11:14[SPEAKER_01]: uh... he caught right at the goal post area and then there was one from pain there on the finish of the red zone area there he caught one other one short close to the goal on so that's a little kind of a stippler uh... uh... uh... that we're doing a close-to-go line is a close-to-go line stop and i remember i'm re-verbing there you go yeah i think i'm back now can you hear me fine yes
- 11:43[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, that's very good.
- 11:44[SPEAKER_00]: That's very good because we're over here on the blue tooth.
- 11:46[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of things happening right now, but I think the big one though that I thought impressed me the most River was Ted Hearst with his touchdown there in the back of the end zone.
- 11:56[SPEAKER_00]: That was super impressive there
- 11:58[SPEAKER_00]: he's been a guy that I feel like is slowly starting to get catch some rhythm here, certainly with some of the quarterbacks and they're finding their rhythm also too with the guy like Tedhurst because he's a different bill and when you look at the widers see her room, he's a way different bill than anyone else in that room and so
- 12:14[SPEAKER_00]: It's also on the job of the quarterback to find their rhythm with Ted Hearst, but they did get him in the back of the end zone.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_00]: He comes down with it and that was in traffic as well.
- 12:25[SPEAKER_00]: A DB was almost about to pick it off, but Ted Hearst grabs it and that's exactly what, you know, as bucks fans, when you saw him get in drafted, you know, can he be a guy that can be a threat for you in the end zone?
- 12:36[SPEAKER_00]: So seeing signs of that starting to go early right now just to mandatory mini camp, and I think it's going to
- 12:45[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, big time, and we'll see how those guys kind of progress going into training camp, but mentally many can't have the time to kind of get the chemistry going to get install going to be your bearings, learn a few things.
- 12:57[SPEAKER_01]: And so far, it looks like rookie is like 10 hertz and bar sharp or doing exactly that.
- 13:02[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll see how big of a part they play in the offense going into training camp.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_01]: That would be the big tell.
- 13:07[SPEAKER_01]: But for now, hard to argue that they haven't been doing pretty well.
- 13:12[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Bauer Sharpe is someone that I think has been one of the kind of flashy, underrated players that we didn't expect to kind of have their names be talked about as much.
- 13:23[SPEAKER_00]: Certainly when you're kind of drafted later on, you don't expect to talk about them a whole lot, but Bauer Sharpe since Devon Cult has been sidelines since the beginning of OTAs to loud for Sharpe to get it in there.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_00]: and get into the rotation a little bit earlier and you know a lot of these quarterbacks are liking going to him right now.
- 13:41[SPEAKER_00]: He's been reliable.
- 13:42[SPEAKER_00]: He's been out there making some grabs.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_00]: He's made leaping grabs off to the sideline he did during OTAs.
- 13:47[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the name to watch ladies and gentlemen once we get into training canvas could be some guy that could take away Dev and Colbs position at or take his roster spot that you know River you had been playing out since the very beginning.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_00]: This is going to be a heavy competition between both but
- 14:05[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 14:06[SPEAKER_01]: Bower is going to try and be that moved tight, Amber Tampa Bay that Devon Pope is right now and Colts not practicing still injured himself, nicknames up a little bit at OTAs, so still not out there.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_01]: So Bower Sharp gets a part of the reps, that's a big part of that competition, so hard to argue that he's not
- 14:22[SPEAKER_01]: handily winning that competition right now.
- 14:25[SPEAKER_01]: I want to address a few comments while I'm here.
- 14:27[SPEAKER_01]: Someone asked why Ted Hers has number 17, but this certainly shepherds numbers certainly shepherds not currently on the team at the moment.
- 14:34[SPEAKER_01]: And it's hard to, and I can talk to you back.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_01]: I can hear you.
- 14:40[SPEAKER_01]: I can hear myself.
- 14:41[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:41[SPEAKER_01]: There you go.
- 14:44[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_01]: Hard to actually back right now, but as of right now, Ted Hers has his number.
- 14:49[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, I thought someone else asked was Bedroom Morrison practicing.
- 14:52[SPEAKER_01]: No, he was not.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_01]: He was there, not practicing.
- 14:55[SPEAKER_01]: Tom Bowles said that he would be back by the mandatory mini camp, not yet.
- 15:00[SPEAKER_01]: So whether or not that it does happen or whether or not that will happen in training camp and said we have yet to see But he was not practicing chase Lucas was not practicing came in all was not practicing miles kill brew out as well It's a piece of it in the injury so the secondary depth really thin right now For the book and he hears him in try, but he can
- 15:20[SPEAKER_00]: I was going to say I know that Todd Bowles was asked about this and it wasn't specifically at Benjamin Morrison, but just because of how limited they were at Cornerback.
- 15:29[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if it was just me, but you could tell Todd was like, I just want these guys to stay healthy and right now that is not happening and I think that's irritating him a little bit and he was asked so you need to get a veteran corner back and he said, yeah, if that happens to be the case, if I got to bring someone in,
- 15:45[SPEAKER_00]: I will, but you know, that's the, I thought that was pretty interesting coming from Todd today, you could just tell that he's little not so happy that these guys aren't staying healthy because that's been an issue and that was an issue last year and now it's starting to kind of replicate and then we're still a little bit of ways away, of course, from the season beginning, absolutely, but still he needs these cornerbacks healthy or they're going to have to go look for someone else.
- 16:11[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we'll see what they end up doing, but it's true.
- 16:13[SPEAKER_01]: You can't have this many cornerbacks and defensive back of down, and excited to be able to run your practices at an early level.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_01]: So eventually they might have to do that.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: But we'll see if Benjamin Morrison comes back or training camp.
- 16:24[SPEAKER_01]: That's what Todd Bull said today.
- 16:26[SPEAKER_01]: And anybody who's injured should be ready for training camp, that's about a month away, guys.
- 16:30[SPEAKER_01]: So a lot of time in between through all that.
- 16:33[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll see what happens.
- 16:35[SPEAKER_01]: But for right now, they're a little thin.
- 16:36[SPEAKER_01]: Like I mentioned before, Josh Hay is taking a lot of the reps at corner.
- 16:40[SPEAKER_01]: Damarian Williams ain't a lot of reps of corner stuff like that.
- 16:48[SPEAKER_00]: There's a question on here how does Josiah Trotter look as coming Eric Rodgers here on YouTube?
- 16:55[SPEAKER_00]: I was actually given a very close eye on him today with health because Trotter was brought closer to us in our viewing area because they were doing some linebacker drills with man.
- 17:04[SPEAKER_00]: I thought too today and some of the team Joe's, you know, they don't have any pads on there.
- 17:07[SPEAKER_00]: I can't tackle anyone.
- 17:08[SPEAKER_00]: Now they definitely don't want to go on the ground after they got penalized.
- 17:11[SPEAKER_00]: For going to the ground of Tundra and OTAs, but your side trotter is big, but the way that he flies to the ball, he came right at Kenny Gainwell and punched right into the hole.
- 17:21[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was off, I forget which play it was, but it was very early on and, you know, Josiah's starting to get into some first team reps as well.
- 17:29[SPEAKER_00]: Next to Alex and Saloni as he should.
- 17:32[SPEAKER_00]: and Todd Bowles has seen what he's going to give.
- 17:35[SPEAKER_00]: I'll talk about Jelindianos in a minute because there's a question here as well, but Josiah Trotter, getting a lot of opportunities, he flies, he's a big dude, and I think him, his listening, and it's just like Rubin Bane.
- 17:48[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, those two have been just kind of glued into listening to the vets.
- 17:52[SPEAKER_00]: It's luckily, you know, Andrew Lone is right next to Trotter, so those guys have been communicating very well.
- 17:57[SPEAKER_00]: Trotter's been impressive so far and he's a guy that stands out.
- 18:00[SPEAKER_00]: I just want to see the pads come on.
- 18:01[SPEAKER_00]: That's when you find out a lot more like we did when we saw, you know, Swassey Dennis early on in training camp, whenever he was starting to show out now, do you wish the, you know, the career could be a little bit higher, higher end, yeah, of course.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_00]: But we'll see if Trotter is the real deal or not once we get into training camp on that end.
- 18:21[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we saw him doing some produce of Anzoloni.
- 18:24[SPEAKER_01]: He was hitting the pads pretty hard.
- 18:25[SPEAKER_01]: It's hard to tell at this stage, like I mentioned, how good is a player?
- 18:28[SPEAKER_01]: What do they look like?
- 18:30[SPEAKER_01]: It's all installed.
- 18:31[SPEAKER_01]: There's no hitting pads on, but August 3rd, American founders.
- 18:37[SPEAKER_01]: that's the first practice with pads on.
- 18:39[SPEAKER_01]: So that's when we'll get to know a few things we've been wondering about and we'll see how good the more physical players like Josiah Trotter and we're being look at that point.
- 18:50[SPEAKER_01]: But for right now, part of tell, but they're doing the right things they need to be doing.
- 18:54[SPEAKER_01]: They look in sync shortly, they're getting out of the ball and don't tell you you can ask for.
- 19:00[SPEAKER_00]: So now their question on here is Jalen Daniels the future of only been here in good things about him and if you're speaking future, are you saying after the baker may field?
- 19:12[SPEAKER_00]: era and Tampa.
- 19:13[SPEAKER_00]: I mean the one thing that we could tell you those Todd Bowls like him absolutely.
- 19:16[SPEAKER_00]: I mean he kind of gushes about him and we had a chance to speak with Daniels for the first time really not the first time but like after rookie mini camp in OTAs we spoke with him last Thursday for a little bit and he's a guy with a ton of energy.
- 19:31[SPEAKER_00]: big smile energetic he's one that you know whenever a baker may feel or browning or doing their team drills he's in the background and doing doing the handoffs dropping back and then doing his reads like he takes a very very seriously if he's on the end of player not in the play.
- 19:49[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but, you know, that's the one thing that we're going to keep an eye on.
- 19:52[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see more of this once we get into training camp.
- 19:55[SPEAKER_00]: He's gotten some opportunity.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, you know, it's pretty funny today.
- 19:58[SPEAKER_00]: I noted on that I had a my notes river was that Todd Bowles had the first team defense going against Jalen Daniels on one of his reps today and team.
- 20:06[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, that.
- 20:08[SPEAKER_00]: wasn't that great wasn't the prettiest of all note no interception or anything but obviously it is a rookie quarterback coming into a defense that Todd Bulls likes to kind of toy around with you definitely for your younger quarterback so he's testing them a little bit but the staff certainly likes him and you can also you know I think we'll get the Baker here in a minute to as well but Chandler Wimmer is a really good quarterback scoach and got to see Chandler Wimmer actually today really hands on with Baker and I believe
- 20:39[SPEAKER_01]: Baker didn't make a comment on on Whitmer your new bucks quarterback scoach Yeah, he did On Daniels, I would remind people that Daniels is an undrafted free agent.
- 20:50[SPEAKER_01]: So check out him the future is maybe a little much at the moment But they like how he's developing like his first now.
- 20:56[SPEAKER_01]: I played Brace the Room and he could compete for Connor Bayes lack for their QB3 spot
- 21:01[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, Baker made me feel to talk about Chandler Whitmer.
- 21:03[SPEAKER_01]: I asked Baker Mayfield.
- 21:05[SPEAKER_01]: I said, what are the things that you're working on as a quarterback right now at this point?
- 21:09[SPEAKER_01]: Because if many camps mostly about yelling with your teammates about install, something bad, right?
- 21:15[SPEAKER_01]: And he said, footwork.
- 21:16[SPEAKER_01]: And he said, last year, I felt like I got the footwork away from me a little bit towards that back half of the stretch where he didn't play as well.
- 21:23[SPEAKER_01]: And he said, I love how annoying Chandler Whitmer is about driving that footwork in, right?
- 21:29[SPEAKER_01]: Making sure that, you know, I say discipline about it and then stuff like that.
- 21:33[SPEAKER_01]: So big emphasis from Chandler Whitmer on footwork for Bigger Mayfield.
- 21:37[SPEAKER_01]: It's always a hugely important part of any offense, but he's dressed up for this offense.
- 21:42[SPEAKER_01]: Timings pretty crucial.
- 21:43[SPEAKER_01]: So footwork is pretty crucial.
- 21:45[SPEAKER_01]: That's the number one thing he's working on this offseason.
- 21:47[SPEAKER_01]: Right now, during OTAs and during Manitrade Minicad, I'm sure he'll continue to work
- 21:56[SPEAKER_00]: you guys let us know the audio is fine enough it's just on my hand little zapping coming now it's not it's not it's not it's not it's not
- 22:06[SPEAKER_00]: Well, well, well, I go into a little bit more here.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_00]: I'll speak on Twitter first on the night end.
- 22:14[SPEAKER_00]: You know, like I said today, he did score a touchdown in the back of the end zone.
- 22:18[SPEAKER_00]: We're back to guy that was getting.
- 22:20[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, he had some flash there during OTA as well.
- 22:26[SPEAKER_00]: Is it zapy?
- 22:27[SPEAKER_00]: That's probably zapy for.
- 22:28[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 22:29[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 22:32[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, this is what we get whenever we're in now we went from outside into a car and then Bluetooth audio God knows what's happening But yes, we'll have more live a whole recap to a mandatory mini camp day to tomorrow as well We will see some more interviews to but I would say kind of you know up and down day from offense Even defense probably wishes they had made more plays what those balls being dropped for potential interceptions
- 23:00[SPEAKER_00]: And then we'll continue to modern to see if you'd have vague it's ramp up, but it seems like that's just going to happen once we get into training camp We'll see what we get more from Muhammad and get a good feel for how these cornbacks got to keep an eye and see if we'll see Benjamin Morrison out there See if he's fully healthy.
- 23:14[SPEAKER_00]: You can get back get back into the rotation But I think that's gonna do it for us.
- 23:18[SPEAKER_00]: We did is there anything is there anything else though river on Baker made field contracts that he speak any on that
- 23:28[SPEAKER_01]: he said the situations exactly the same he said I'm just here to play football, you know, that'll take care of us up when it does.
- 23:35[SPEAKER_01]: He was asked if the book in the years are perhaps looking for him to take better care of himself and his body perhaps and he's contact negotiations and he said very firmly I've started the last three years that should not be a question whatsoever.
- 23:52[SPEAKER_01]: So that's a pretty bold statement for him, but he did mention that pretty firmly, so maybe that's a point of contention of the conduct, or maybe not, we don't know, but he was pretty firm on that one.
- 24:08[SPEAKER_01]: Sweet deal.
- 24:09[SPEAKER_01]: Perfect.
