Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome you into hour two at a gusty ray Nichki Field.
- 0:04Speaker 1: It is Packers' training Camp twenty twenty six and it's
- 0:07Speaker 1: Training Camp Lie presented by the Potawatamie sportsbook Bet Big,
- 0:10Speaker 1: Bet Bold and Bet above the rest. You can better
- 0:13Speaker 1: believe that we're back for team portion and well timed.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Wayne Larravy turning the commercial break gave me one of
- 0:19Speaker 1: the best ideas ever maybe on Earth. And Wayne, we
- 0:23Speaker 1: gotta line up some hydration breaks with the commercial breaks
- 0:27Speaker 1: then we don't miss a thing here at the perch.
- 0:29Speaker 2: We had to talk to Matt Lafleur about that. I'm
- 0:31Speaker 2: sure he'll be very acceptable to the idea.
- 0:33Speaker 3: I think he'll probably like that.
- 0:34Speaker 1: He might like that one, maybe more than he liked
- 0:36Speaker 1: the comment on the Guardian caps.
- 0:38Speaker 3: I think it.
- 0:40Speaker 4: Might be in that category.
- 0:41Speaker 3: Oh, it was one of my favorites.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Sweep around the left end. That's something you could see
- 0:47Speaker 2: from him. There's no doubt about that. Jayden reed to
- 0:50Speaker 2: run some of those as well. But they've got some speed.
- 0:53Speaker 2: They've got some perimeter speed on this football team, on
- 0:56Speaker 2: this offense.
- 0:57Speaker 1: And save yond Williams trotting off at the same vein
- 0:59Speaker 1: Hey he did a lot of the Jets sweeps a
- 1:01Speaker 1: year ago, and to have sky Moore another weapon of
- 1:06Speaker 1: that ILK, I'm excited to see how the Packers are
- 1:08Speaker 1: are able to utilize that one. And j Michael Sturvan,
- 1:11Speaker 1: They're gonna see a ton of him and we haven't
- 1:13Speaker 1: seen a ton of him in the pass gotching variety today,
- 1:16Speaker 1: but a lot in the run game.
- 1:17Speaker 3: And that one was.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Pierre Strong right into a big, large group of bodies,
- 1:24Speaker 1: right into the middle, into the teeth of that Packers
- 1:26Speaker 1: defense led by Jonathan Ford to stuff him up and McClellan,
- 1:31Speaker 1: the law firm of McClellan and Campbell back in at
- 1:34Speaker 1: the defensive tackle. So just a young defensive line here
- 1:37Speaker 1: with Cox, Campbell, McClellan and Deny Dennis Sutton, a couple
- 1:41Speaker 1: of draft picks off to the right, and somebody that
- 1:44Speaker 1: I don't think a lot of people were anticipating, wanting
- 1:46Speaker 1: in extended to look at of Anthony Campbell as they
- 1:49Speaker 1: get to shift the defensive line working against Tyrod Taylor.
- 1:52Speaker 3: Out of the shotgun.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Here's Brenton Cox on the left, ended defensively. Benjamin Saint
- 2:00Speaker 2: just was right there to deny that short completion.
- 2:04Speaker 1: There's been a lot made of that signing Wayne, that
- 2:07Speaker 1: if he's any more than a depth piece, you're in trouble.
- 2:10Speaker 3: But I don't know. The first two days he's looked
- 2:12Speaker 3: like a pretty dang good depth piece that Oh.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's going to be a really good
- 2:15Speaker 2: depth piece to have and may have to start at
- 2:18Speaker 2: some point. You know, injuries that could happen. We know
- 2:20Speaker 2: that firsthand, and so this is an upgrade. I think
- 2:24Speaker 2: in that third quarterback, fourth cornerback.
- 2:27Speaker 1: One guy that they've still been lean working in and
- 2:31Speaker 1: slow playing in is uh the fifth round draft choice
- 2:34Speaker 1: Demanni Jackson, and he played at Modern Day High School,
- 2:38Speaker 1: one of the most competitive high schools in in in
- 2:42Speaker 1: the nation, then went and played college football at Alabama
- 2:45Speaker 1: in the SEC. He's had top competition. I'm excited to
- 2:48Speaker 1: see once he can get into some game action Wayne,
- 2:51Speaker 1: because he very much looks the part well. He didn't
- 2:54Speaker 1: wasn't able to do much of anything during the OTA practices.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Yeah he didn't, and you know, was rehabbing an injury.
- 3:00Speaker 2: But we're starting going to start getting a look at
- 3:02Speaker 2: him probably next week here in camp. He's working on
- 3:05Speaker 2: the side for the most part, now did some individual
- 3:08Speaker 2: drills as well.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Packer's still waiting anxiously awaiting the return of Carrington Valentine.
- 3:13Speaker 1: That one just out of the hands, outstretched arms of
- 3:16Speaker 1: Marshaw Lloyd on a scene.
- 3:18Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was kyroon Drones on the past, just
- 3:21Speaker 2: a seam route down the left side numbers and boy
- 3:24Speaker 2: very nearly hooked up on that completion.
- 3:26Speaker 1: But man, was he open? Wide open? Was Marshaon Lloyd
- 3:30Speaker 1: on that one? An exciting guy to be able to
- 3:33Speaker 1: see into the pass game too. We only think more
- 3:36Speaker 1: about him into the run game. But I think it
- 3:37Speaker 1: was a pass play against Indianapolis that drew a lot
- 3:41Speaker 1: of eyeballs right out.
- 3:42Speaker 3: Of the gates.
- 3:42Speaker 1: And that one will get a lot of ooz and
- 3:44Speaker 1: eyes and love from Tyron Hopper filling a gap quickly
- 3:46Speaker 1: and stuffing him up for.
- 3:47Speaker 4: A Now we're wondering where it was Tyron Hopper. There
- 3:49Speaker 4: he is right in the middle.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Of it and getting the hole and getting some good
- 3:53Speaker 1: celebration by the rest of the defense. That swaps through
- 3:57Speaker 1: and now the Ones will we'll take the field here
- 3:59Speaker 1: for their set of live reps.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Here into team. It'll be an offensive line that consists of.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Jordan Morgan alongside Jacob Monk, Sean Ryan and Anthony Belton.
- 4:12Speaker 1: Darien Kinnard gonna get the five of the five up
- 4:15Speaker 1: front in front of Jordan Love who calls the play
- 4:18Speaker 1: from the huddle, and they're into the defensive side. A
- 4:22Speaker 1: little bit of a mix and match unit. But Jordan
- 4:25Speaker 1: Morgan up against Lucas van Ness has been one of
- 4:27Speaker 1: the highlights of camp to be able to watch.
- 4:31Speaker 2: They moved the tight end wiley right from right to
- 4:34Speaker 2: left to pick off the aforementioned Lucas van Ness, and
- 4:39Speaker 2: that running player went right behind.
- 4:41Speaker 1: That block right behind him, a good one, and then
- 4:44Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs went right into the the awaiting arms of
- 4:47Speaker 1: Edrian Cooper. That would have been a fun one to
- 4:48Speaker 1: be able to see if if we were live Wade,
- 4:51Speaker 1: because both of those guys were lined up for a
- 4:54Speaker 1: good old tackle Alley or the Oklahoma drill that was
- 4:56Speaker 1: already mentioned.
- 4:57Speaker 4: There yet today's probably yeah, a little bit. Yeah.
- 4:59Speaker 1: Mcclell and Campbell on the interior there again, Chris McClellan
- 5:03Speaker 1: gonna be playing for this team. Excited to see him
- 5:05Speaker 1: against more ones, the more and more ones you can
- 5:08Speaker 1: get him looks against the better.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Jordan Love in that shotgun a long count, quick, nice
- 5:15Speaker 2: draw and it opened up like the Red Sea for Moses,
- 5:18Speaker 2: for Josh Jacobs.
- 5:19Speaker 1: That's a tough play to be able to truly invite
- 5:23Speaker 1: pressure while knowing you gotta get sticky and quickly into
- 5:28Speaker 1: a run fit. That's not the easiest thing for the
- 5:30Speaker 1: offensive line to be able to do. Did a good
- 5:32Speaker 1: job of it there all right. Before the next nap,
- 5:34Speaker 1: Let's take quick time out ten seconds for an identification.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Allow our local stations to identify themselves ten for an ID.
- 5:41Speaker 1: This is Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin's Training Camp Live. H
- 6:00Speaker 1: Welcome back to Rayinichki Field. It's Training Camp Live twenty
- 6:02Speaker 1: twenty six. Baron Serell coming off a looping stunt up
- 6:07Speaker 1: the middle caused him maybe a just a tick quick
- 6:10Speaker 1: re release of the ball from Jordan Love there as
- 6:13Speaker 1: we get into team one on one move the ball
- 6:15Speaker 1: here towards the tail end.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Of practice number six.
- 6:18Speaker 1: But Wayne, the most important practice number two in full pads,
- 6:21Speaker 1: real football being played here and some physical defense being
- 6:24Speaker 1: played by this Packers.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Defense, absolutely no question about it, and you save you
- 6:29Speaker 2: On Williams split it wide to the right side and
- 6:32Speaker 2: they get motioned that way from sky Moore.
- 6:34Speaker 3: Another fun varied look on the defense there and.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Underneath all of that motion they throw it to the
- 6:39Speaker 2: big tight end. Josh Wiley and Xavier McKinney wasn't fooled
- 6:42Speaker 2: at all, denied him, locked him up.
- 6:45Speaker 3: There on the first down.
- 6:46Speaker 1: And here on to the right side, the pairing of
- 6:49Speaker 1: Sorel and van Ness lining up alongside each other.
- 6:53Speaker 4: That's an interesting look.
- 6:54Speaker 3: With Vanessa's hand into the ground, a little bit different
- 6:56Speaker 3: of an appearance.
- 6:58Speaker 4: Yeah, he did a lot of that in Iowa.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Ton of it, no doubt, and lined up a lot
- 7:01Speaker 1: over guards and Warren Brinson lines up over the guard.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Who's had a good day here and day number two
- 7:07Speaker 1: and Pads won a couple of different one on ones.
- 7:09Speaker 1: That one bounced off to the right side by Marshawn Lloyd.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Tries to get skinny and sneak around, but not a
- 7:15Speaker 1: ton to do because Edrin Cooper was quickly on the scene.
- 7:19Speaker 2: Peddrick Cooper came up through the gap in that play
- 7:23Speaker 2: like a rocket. He just and give credit to Marshawn Lloyd,
- 7:28Speaker 2: he dipped and got lower than low and Coop went.
- 7:31Speaker 3: Right right over the top of him. It is one
- 7:34Speaker 3: I'd love to know, and I'm glad you you said it. Wayne.
- 7:36Speaker 1: You got a chance to catch up with Eddrin Cooper
- 7:38Speaker 1: a little bit later into camp. I wonder how much
- 7:41Speaker 1: he'd talk to and admit, of uh, the the better spots,
- 7:45Speaker 1: he maybe feels like he's getting put into playing alongside.
- 7:48Speaker 2: So he's just looking forward to playing in this defense
- 7:50Speaker 2: for that reason, because he's going to think be doing
- 7:52Speaker 2: a little bit more at the line of scrimmage, and
- 7:55Speaker 2: that's something that he knows he can bring impact. Matthew
- 7:59Speaker 2: Golden with a night catch altern on se say the
- 8:02Speaker 2: corner back on the near left sidelines here, nice completion
- 8:06Speaker 2: from Jordan Love pass was a timing pass right on
- 8:08Speaker 2: the money.
- 8:09Speaker 3: Right on. And they have been in sync and in
- 8:12Speaker 3: rhythm all camp, so.
- 8:14Speaker 2: I agree they Jordan is working that and there's no
- 8:18Speaker 2: secret as to why he really never got into a
- 8:22Speaker 2: rhythm until maybe that last game in Chicago. No doubt
- 8:25Speaker 2: with Matthew Golden for various reasons, not blaming anybody, but
- 8:30Speaker 2: you know, this camp, you could see they are working
- 8:33Speaker 2: it out and working on it.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Quick shuffling of the offensive line as Jacob Burton goes
- 8:37Speaker 1: over to left guard and comes in. They bounce out
- 8:40Speaker 1: Darien Kannar. Jacobal goes over to right guard and then
- 8:44Speaker 1: right tackles Anthony Belton as marsh On Lloyd runs one
- 8:47Speaker 1: a nice cutback off.
- 8:48Speaker 3: To the right side as well.
- 8:50Speaker 1: And again we missed a lot of the same jokes,
- 8:53Speaker 1: and I know the common theme is all right, well,
- 8:55Speaker 1: when is he bouncing right back up? He's continued to
- 8:58Speaker 1: be able to string a couple of here together. And
- 9:01Speaker 1: the health is the first and foremost important for every single.
- 9:05Speaker 3: One of these guys.
- 9:06Speaker 1: But the talent evident with Marshawn Lloyd, and I think
- 9:08Speaker 1: he's seemingly gaining more confidence, especially running in the interior
- 9:12Speaker 1: when we didn't see a front of that billy.
- 9:13Speaker 2: It's been a couple of years since he's had regular
- 9:15Speaker 2: duty at running back due to the injury, so uh yeah,
- 9:19Speaker 2: these these reps in camp are very important for him.
- 9:22Speaker 4: And I dare say, oh, there's an.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Interception and Baron, oh my goodness, little misdirection love rolling
- 9:31Speaker 2: right through it back the other ways we've seen so
- 9:34Speaker 2: often Baron Cerel read it and took it to the house.
- 9:37Speaker 3: And went right back to the well.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Won too many times Sorell takes it back to the
- 9:41Speaker 1: house and Evan Williams hits the deck in the celebration
- 9:45Speaker 1: as Baron Cerell enjoyed that one as he should read
- 9:48Speaker 1: that one perfectly. He was working a rush against Jordan
- 9:51Speaker 1: Morrian who stood up and you could tell was trying
- 9:54Speaker 1: to invite some pressure and Sarrell just was not playing it.
- 9:57Speaker 3: Good luck by by number ninety nine.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Second year players, folks keep an eye on them because
- 10:03Speaker 2: that's when a player makes his greatest improvement in his career.
- 10:06Speaker 2: From year one to year two. They should keep getting better,
- 10:10Speaker 2: but not in as big an increment as you do. Yeah,
- 10:12Speaker 2: from year one to year two.
- 10:14Speaker 1: And for him when it's a little bit different with
- 10:16Speaker 1: the new defense, a lot of it is just familiarity
- 10:19Speaker 1: with the scheme, but everybody around here kind of has
- 10:23Speaker 1: more of an understanding as to what he can do
- 10:24Speaker 1: and understanding how you need to get better to be
- 10:27Speaker 1: able to have your game translate to the NFL.
- 10:29Speaker 4: Absolutely, it's a huge difference.
- 10:32Speaker 3: You know.
- 10:32Speaker 2: I understand what we all see on Saturday afternoons, we're
- 10:35Speaker 2: sitting on the couch watching TV. Right it looks like
- 10:38Speaker 2: football on the Big ten or the SEC. But and
- 10:42Speaker 2: then the next day Sunday looks like more football, right. Yeah,
- 10:45Speaker 2: Television homogenizes this game, folks, and you don't see the
- 10:48Speaker 2: difference unless you're in person at a stadium up close
- 10:51Speaker 2: like we are here. It's a big gap between college
- 10:54Speaker 2: football and pro football.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Huge gap, and especially in between the tackles, that's I
- 10:59Speaker 1: think where the difference is made even more prominent because
- 11:04Speaker 1: of the physicality that you have to play with and
- 11:07Speaker 1: what's going to be demanded for you to be able
- 11:09Speaker 1: to make the most of it. And that one off
- 11:12Speaker 1: to the left side, a quick run, look like Jayden
- 11:15Speaker 1: Nixon on the carrys as he tries to get outside
- 11:18Speaker 1: of Aaron Mosby and the anchor onto the left side
- 11:21Speaker 1: of that offensive line. This one, this drive being coordinated
- 11:26Speaker 1: by Kyle McCord. I don't know way and again it's early,
- 11:29Speaker 1: it's hard to make too many judgments. Feels like McCord
- 11:32Speaker 1: is fighting a little bit of an uphill battle with drones.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Who's looked really athletic.
- 11:36Speaker 2: Hard to tell, Bill, I mean, I think the verdict
- 11:39Speaker 2: is out on both of these quarterbacks. They're just trying
- 11:41Speaker 2: to see who's going to be worth developing going forward.
- 11:46Speaker 1: And Nixon with a good cutback right into the uh
- 11:49Speaker 1: awaiting arms that look like of Colin Oliver who accidentally
- 11:52Speaker 1: took them took him to the ground. Pardon me, that
- 11:54Speaker 1: was Shamar Bartholomew who ended up on to the deck.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Rules of engagement. Matt Lafour might not of it, but
- 12:00Speaker 1: he likes some good physicality on this team period. That's
- 12:04Speaker 1: gone up and down the field, moving the ball for
- 12:06Speaker 1: the offense. Third team offense going up against a somewhat
- 12:10Speaker 1: combined third team defense. But again, another look at one
- 12:14Speaker 1: of our guys then identis Sutton on the inside as
- 12:17Speaker 1: he lined up alongside Kelly off to the right.
- 12:20Speaker 3: Good pass off to the right for Isaiah Nayer.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Who mayor made a nice play.
- 12:27Speaker 2: Down and bounds. I believe he did. Their move looks
- 12:29Speaker 2: like they're moving it. Yeah, yeah, this happened away on
- 12:33Speaker 2: the other side of the field from us. But Nayor's
- 12:36Speaker 2: a guy we've talked about him, along with j Michael Sturdivant,
- 12:40Speaker 2: Will Sheppard. Three guys that you can kind of look
- 12:44Speaker 2: at it. Do they fit Maybe not on the fifty.
- 12:48Speaker 3: Three man roster, but right maybe not right away on.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Specially on not special teams, but on practice squad.
- 12:55Speaker 1: And hard to think that there's gonna be six or
- 12:56Speaker 1: seven guys at that position better than better than them,
- 12:59Speaker 1: and we'll see how long did they stick. And when
- 13:03Speaker 1: you're on that practice squad with the new elevation rules, Wayne,
- 13:05Speaker 1: most likely you're gonna see some game action. Yeah, that's
- 13:08Speaker 1: just the nature of the beast in the.
- 13:11Speaker 3: NFL these days.
- 13:12Speaker 1: Is most likely you're gonna find your way onto a
- 13:15Speaker 1: game field if you're one of the players that they
- 13:17Speaker 1: select into that spot. Nick Neeman's another player who we
- 13:20Speaker 1: haven't talked a ton about. He ends up onto the
- 13:24Speaker 1: field in the playoff game number thirty one, and he
- 13:26Speaker 1: gets ISO against Coleston Lovelin, who's having one of the
- 13:30Speaker 1: best rookie years a tight end could have. He's not
- 13:32Speaker 1: expected Wayne probably to do a ton defensively. He's a
- 13:36Speaker 1: special team's ace. But then's a balancing act of how
- 13:40Speaker 1: many different players can we have that are just mostly
- 13:43Speaker 1: doing special teams. Got to be able to be somewhat
- 13:45Speaker 1: serviceable on this.
- 13:46Speaker 3: Side, Yeah, you do.
- 13:47Speaker 2: And you know Ted Thompson always wanted those special teams
- 13:51Speaker 2: guys to be able to come in and if they
- 13:54Speaker 2: had to hold up at a position on the field
- 13:56Speaker 2: with offense or defense. Most teams have guys who make
- 14:01Speaker 2: the club first and foremost for special teams, and in
- 14:05Speaker 2: recent years, in the last four years or so, that's
- 14:08Speaker 2: become the case here in Green Bank, Goody has done that.
- 14:10Speaker 4: He's put four or.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Five guys in that fifty three man roster that are
- 14:13Speaker 2: there for special teams.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Mark Perry one of the safeties that has not been mentioned.
- 14:19Speaker 1: A ton one guy that we enjoyed being able to
- 14:22Speaker 1: say his name on day number one. Lined up on
- 14:24Speaker 1: the outside, Marlon Jones the corner, had a big would
- 14:28Speaker 1: have been picked six on day number one. Been a
- 14:31Speaker 1: little bit quieter on the outside yet since, but Kyron
- 14:34Speaker 1: Jones had a miss exchange with Martinez on one of
- 14:39Speaker 1: the previous plays. Some guys that are gonna get a
- 14:41Speaker 1: lot of looks into the preseason, a lot of opportunities
- 14:45Speaker 1: to make some splash plays. But you hear play a
- 14:48Speaker 1: day and when you're one of these guys that's probably
- 14:51Speaker 1: eighty on the cut line way, you do have to
- 14:53Speaker 1: be able to make some splash plays to continue to
- 14:56Speaker 1: have your name.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Huh, There is no question about it. You have to
- 14:58Speaker 2: show them you can make the big play and.
- 15:01Speaker 3: That j Michael Sturman just out in front of him.
- 15:03Speaker 2: Yeah, he had the step on the coverage across the way,
- 15:06Speaker 2: but the past just a bit off the march.
- 15:08Speaker 3: Had Keaton Oldappo beat.
- 15:09Speaker 1: That's how we end day number six, said Packers practice
- 15:13Speaker 1: day number two in full pads, and we'll take quick
- 15:15Speaker 1: time out here on Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin and a
- 15:18Speaker 1: esteemed guest.

- 16:26Speaker 5: always like ninety five degrees and people.
- 16:28Speaker 3: Are melting on the one hundred percent.
- 16:29Speaker 6: Yeah, it wasn't that bad today.
- 16:30Speaker 5: But I got to see some football, and I gotta
- 16:32Speaker 5: it's there's just so much to watch, Like your eyes
- 16:35Speaker 5: just shoot around. You try to focus on a couple
- 16:37Speaker 5: of things. First, blush, my man crushed on Evan Williams continues,
- 16:40Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and uh, I just like I'd like watching
- 16:44Speaker 5: him develop and like he's just he's on point.
- 16:46Speaker 6: He's when they're handing out.
- 16:48Speaker 5: When they get done with the Tucker Craft extension, they
- 16:49Speaker 5: can start working on the Evan Williams Extension.
- 16:51Speaker 6: At least in my humble well.
- 16:52Speaker 1: And you know what that that safety room is is
- 16:55Speaker 1: somebody's gonna get extended.
- 16:56Speaker 3: You would assume it's gonna be him first.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Yesterday he had one of the best plays along side
- 17:00Speaker 1: Brandon Sisa, breaking up a deep post to Christian Watson
- 17:04Speaker 1: where he's writing the perfect spot and the understanding and
- 17:07Speaker 1: the InSync nature back there. You're hoping you can have
- 17:10Speaker 1: the same thing with Franklin and Cooper at the linebacker spot.
- 17:13Speaker 1: But they do feel like they've blended really well together.
- 17:15Speaker 1: And McKinney getting his hands on the football here early
- 17:18Speaker 1: in Campa. One thing you missed all out on a
- 17:20Speaker 1: lot of last year.
- 17:21Speaker 5: Talked about that a little bit during our weekly show,
- 17:24Speaker 5: how the interceptions like went from seventeen to nine last
- 17:27Speaker 5: year and they had their hands on something that they couldn't.
- 17:29Speaker 6: Couldn't hold on to. But that is such a big thing.
- 17:32Speaker 5: Like and you know, Billy turnovers and football is like
- 17:36Speaker 5: you love to have them, but it's a lot.
- 17:37Speaker 6: Of it is luck.
- 17:38Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's a you can say, like good
- 17:41Speaker 5: teams make turnovers happen, okay, but a lot of it
- 17:44Speaker 5: is luck. With the way the oblong ball bounces are
- 17:46Speaker 5: the way guys catch balls, and that's gonna be key.
- 17:50Speaker 5: And that's why I was Watchings and Evan Williams together
- 17:53Speaker 5: watching CS a lot today.
- 17:54Speaker 6: He didn't look like a rookie, you know.
- 17:56Speaker 3: It looks like a pro dudd. He looks pretty.
- 17:58Speaker 5: Polished, he looks like and he on stride for stride
- 18:01Speaker 5: with some of the faster receivers than Packers have.
- 18:03Speaker 6: So it's like, Okay, I see what they liked him,
- 18:06Speaker 6: and that's you know.
- 18:07Speaker 5: I think he'll surprise people as a second round pick nationally,
- 18:09Speaker 5: maybe not here.
- 18:10Speaker 1: Yeah, And I also think Drew he's gonna be We
- 18:12Speaker 1: anticipated that he would play kind of early and often
- 18:15Speaker 1: just out of necessity. The injuries have given them a
- 18:18Speaker 1: great opportunity to put him into the lineup as much
- 18:21Speaker 1: as possible, have him hammer as many reps as you
- 18:24Speaker 1: can early, and then see what you got. I mean,
- 18:26Speaker 1: forged by Fire has been him early in this camp,
- 18:30Speaker 1: and admittedly so you never want to see injuries. But
- 18:33Speaker 1: I think the Packers kind of like how it's worked
- 18:34Speaker 1: out to be able to get the reps against their
- 18:36Speaker 1: top guys, so long as he's.
- 18:38Speaker 5: Getting the one reps because Keishawn Nixon and kring To
- 18:40Speaker 5: Valentine have minor hamstring tweaks that they want to rest.
- 18:43Speaker 5: That's good opportunity, and you're seeing that up and down
- 18:45Speaker 5: the roster. It's they're so thin at tight end. I
- 18:47Speaker 5: thought maybe you and Wayne would have to go in
- 18:49Speaker 5: there and suit.
- 18:49Speaker 6: Up to play.
- 18:50Speaker 3: Wayne before me definitely, Yeah.
- 18:52Speaker 6: Well he's still in good Shapeyeah, he could probably do it.
- 18:54Speaker 5: But you see the Josh Wiley's and Drake Dabney's making
- 18:56Speaker 5: plays and everybody's gotting their chance, and that's what you
- 18:59Speaker 5: like to see. But in that that the dB area, man,
- 19:02Speaker 5: I was, I'm impressed. Like Sai looks like to me,
- 19:05Speaker 5: he's polished, real smooth and very athletic. Just yeah, he
- 19:09Speaker 5: has this kind of like he does things and you're
- 19:11Speaker 5: seeing how fast he is and he's stayed keeping up
- 19:13Speaker 5: with those receivers and the hip turner stuff.
- 19:14Speaker 6: It looks effortless. He just flows.
- 19:16Speaker 5: He's some athletes you just see, Oh that guy's an
- 19:18Speaker 5: ad like yes, so there's not a stiff in a
- 19:21Speaker 5: mechanical he's.
- 19:22Speaker 6: Stiff and he's just flowing around out there and it's
- 19:24Speaker 6: like I like.
- 19:24Speaker 3: To see also aggressive.
- 19:25Speaker 1: I mean, that was one that we saw we've seen
- 19:28Speaker 1: so far, but even when a completion has come up,
- 19:31Speaker 1: he's been in the hip pocket and uh, I'm excited
- 19:33Speaker 1: to see how he translates there. Obviously, my eyes eyes
- 19:36Speaker 1: always go to the offensive line and uh, Jordan Morgan
- 19:39Speaker 1: work in progress. We know that that one is what
- 19:42Speaker 1: they're They're hoping for him to take multiple leaps and jumps.
- 19:46Speaker 1: But this man over here, a number fifty two, Jagger Burton,
- 19:49Speaker 1: he picked a good time to get healthy right as
- 19:51Speaker 1: the pads came on come back for his little tweak
- 19:53Speaker 1: Drew U and man, they were utilizing him in all
- 19:56Speaker 1: the chest piece ways. Our friend Aaron Nagler I think
- 19:58Speaker 1: was praying they will yes up and down the offensive
- 20:02Speaker 1: line left guard, center, right guard and pushing all of
- 20:05Speaker 1: those spots where they now actually feel like they have
- 20:08Speaker 1: some competition other than just here's the five that we're
- 20:10Speaker 1: gonna go with.
- 20:11Speaker 5: They they do value positional versatility and for a rookie
- 20:14Speaker 5: like who's gonna be ready to be plug and play
- 20:16Speaker 5: because Billy, you don't know when the injuries are where
- 20:17Speaker 5: they're gonna happens. Fair haven't a guy and that's one
- 20:20Speaker 5: of the things maybe the Packers have gotten away from
- 20:22Speaker 5: a little bit is having those utility guys that can
- 20:24Speaker 5: plug in.
- 20:25Speaker 6: And I mean go back to when Zach tom was
- 20:27Speaker 6: a young player. Yeah, into the jar.
- 20:35Speaker 5: When he was a rookie, Like it was that kind
- 20:37Speaker 5: of like moving around in camp and like in their
- 20:39Speaker 5: preseason debut, they're gonna play different positions.
- 20:41Speaker 6: That gets a little taste here and there, and I
- 20:43Speaker 6: like that, Dave's what this is a time of years about.
- 20:46Speaker 5: But to your point, everywhere they put Jagerferton looks like
- 20:48Speaker 5: he's pretty solid.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Looks like he's played well.
- 20:50Speaker 1: And the baseball version of the football version of spring training,
- 20:54Speaker 1: we're working on things, working on a lot of different looks.
- 20:56Speaker 3: They're working on a lot of.
- 20:57Speaker 1: Different stuff up and down the defensive side, throwing a
- 21:01Speaker 1: ton of stuff at these guys. Uh you got you
- 21:03Speaker 1: got your look at Eddrian Cooper lining up on the
- 21:06Speaker 1: defensive line, probably more than we've seen him in his
- 21:08Speaker 1: first two and a half years.
- 21:09Speaker 3: That was that stood out to me.
- 21:11Speaker 1: And a couple of great catch right there the YouTube
- 21:15Speaker 1: comes missed the spectacular grab that drewels And just had
- 21:18Speaker 1: of an open water bottle right before it hit hit
- 21:21Speaker 1: our friends right and to the equipment.
- 21:24Speaker 6: About to hit some video equipment. That's very expensive stuff.
- 21:27Speaker 6: Our stuff.
- 21:28Speaker 3: We there be totally fine, Yeah, no doubt, but uh.
- 21:32Speaker 6: I'm seeing like, you know, corner blitz.
- 21:34Speaker 5: There was a play earlier today believe that Evan Williams
- 21:37Speaker 5: would have lam based at Jordan Love. He would have
- 21:40Speaker 5: time yes here and that would have been like, oh
- 21:41Speaker 5: that one, that one's sicken.
- 21:44Speaker 3: Yeah, And he did pull.
- 21:45Speaker 5: Up and it was it was not in the danger
- 21:47Speaker 5: zone right of the rules of engagement he pulled up,
- 21:50Speaker 5: But I was standing next to Aaron Egler on that play.
- 21:52Speaker 6: It's like, oh, the quarterback would have.
- 21:54Speaker 3: Been out on that one.
- 21:55Speaker 1: We have seen one to two corner blitzer or safety
- 21:59Speaker 1: blitzer a day that have jumped off the page.
- 22:01Speaker 6: I'm here for it.
- 22:02Speaker 5: I excited about that absolutely because getting pressure on the
- 22:05Speaker 5: quarterback from any and just being kind of.
- 22:08Speaker 6: Just doing things that are unexpected. Yeah, I'm unpredictable.
- 22:12Speaker 5: That helps him because I think at times in recent
- 22:14Speaker 5: years and I'm no defense corner. But if you've fallen
- 22:16Speaker 5: into like the predictability and people kind of expect how
- 22:19Speaker 5: many times have we seen the Packers give up big games.
- 22:22Speaker 6: On third and long?
- 22:23Speaker 7: Sure?
- 22:23Speaker 6: Right, in the last couple of years.
- 22:25Speaker 5: It's been a bugaboo for them, and maybe that's a
- 22:27Speaker 5: way to combat it, is to show him something like
- 22:28Speaker 5: that and put that in their heads and execute it.
- 22:31Speaker 3: And be able to execute it.
- 22:33Speaker 1: And you know, Zaier Franklin has been one of the
- 22:36Speaker 1: last to leave the practice field every single day. We're
- 22:40Speaker 1: not gonna be able to see it until they actually
- 22:42Speaker 1: start playing games and we see the communication with live
- 22:44Speaker 1: bullets rolling in the process once they go on the road.
- 22:48Speaker 1: But seems like a confidence in getting everybody lined up
- 22:50Speaker 1: that not to take a shot at kway Walker. But
- 22:53Speaker 1: I don't think it was his best trait, and like
- 22:55Speaker 1: him being the green dot guy, I don't know was
- 22:57Speaker 1: his best athletic trait, And for it feels like that's
- 23:01Speaker 1: something that he thrives in.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Might be a little layer that they didn't have a
- 23:05Speaker 3: year ago.
- 23:06Speaker 5: Absolutely it could be, And you forget now because we're
- 23:11Speaker 5: watching all even the guys who were here last year.
- 23:13Speaker 3: There are new things for them, Yeah, one hundred percent.
- 23:15Speaker 5: Terminology, new kind of guidelines that they have they have
- 23:18Speaker 5: to that they're implementing, and everybody's on a bit of
- 23:21Speaker 5: a learning curve, right Amen, So there will be stuff.
- 23:24Speaker 5: And Wayne has always told us it takes the first
- 23:28Speaker 5: like four games to know kind of what you have,
- 23:30Speaker 5: and when you have a new coordinator might even be
- 23:32Speaker 5: longer than that.
- 23:33Speaker 3: People always want to know.
- 23:34Speaker 1: As we're up here for training camp live in the
- 23:36Speaker 1: wind tunnel of rayn Chki Field, here is Drew Olsen
- 23:39Speaker 1: pin hits for Wayne Larvie. For the final couple of minutes,
- 23:43Speaker 1: we're gonna hear from Matt Lafleur coming up about fifteen
- 23:45Speaker 1: minutes from right now. Everybody, when you say you were
- 23:48Speaker 1: at Packers practice, the first person they ask about is
- 23:51Speaker 1: Jordan Love. I've now made it ten minutes without asking
- 23:53Speaker 1: you about what you thought of Jordan Love here today,
- 23:55Speaker 1: because it feels like it's kind of just business as usual,
- 23:58Speaker 1: doesn't it.
- 23:58Speaker 5: He just he always looks in control, old, calm, cool, collected.
- 24:01Speaker 5: He looks the same to me. Yeah, right, and he's
- 24:04Speaker 5: uh he puts dropping balls and buckets. He's doing what
- 24:07Speaker 5: Jordan Love does. He's making good decisions delivering the ball.
- 24:10Speaker 5: You know, even on that play, when I think Evan
- 24:12Speaker 5: Williams would have sacked him, I think it was ended
- 24:14Speaker 5: up being a completion, right, It would have been a second.
- 24:16Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it might have been a little different.
- 24:17Speaker 5: So that was that was coming from the blind side.
- 24:19Speaker 5: It was that was the definition of unabated to the quarterback.
- 24:22Speaker 5: But Billy, he it's not a worry. You watch him
- 24:26Speaker 5: and you know what you're gonna get, and you expect it,
- 24:28Speaker 5: and you're almost when they when he does missfire and
- 24:31Speaker 5: he it like I throw it an interception or a
- 24:34Speaker 5: pick six.
- 24:34Speaker 6: Years shocked by it.
- 24:35Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's.
- 24:36Speaker 6: Like it's something was there had to be a breakdown
- 24:38Speaker 6: somewhere else.
- 24:39Speaker 1: So he comes in here today one day that UH
- 24:42Speaker 1: football fans enjoy when Mike Sando of the Athletic does
- 24:45Speaker 1: his super special Quarterback Tiers list. Jordan Love came in
- 24:48Speaker 1: here today at ten into tier number two, right behind
- 24:52Speaker 1: the tie for the eighth spot between Drake May of
- 24:55Speaker 1: the Patriots UH and Jared Goff, who ended up being
- 24:58Speaker 1: the highest rated guy UH in the division. A couple
- 25:00Speaker 1: of things that they ended up saying about Jordan Love.
- 25:03Speaker 1: One offensive coach said, quote, He's always getting away with it,
- 25:07Speaker 1: so at some point I just have to tip my cap.
- 25:10Speaker 3: I don't know exactly getting away with it.
- 25:11Speaker 1: If that's just the back throw shoulder nature the backfoot
- 25:15Speaker 1: throws that comes through. But another defensive coordinator said he's
- 25:18Speaker 1: still coming into his own as a player. Early on,
- 25:21Speaker 1: he was trying to be Aaron Rodgers. You could tell
- 25:23Speaker 1: from his mannerisms, too cool for school. I think he's
- 25:26Speaker 1: starting to settle into who he is. He has the size,
- 25:28Speaker 1: the length, and all of the tools.
- 25:31Speaker 6: The arm strength makes up for the footwork in some cases.
- 25:34Speaker 5: Sure Rodgers has done it for twenty two years, right amen, Jordan.
- 25:39Speaker 6: Love has the arm strength to make those throws. He's
- 25:40Speaker 6: got a cannon.
- 25:41Speaker 5: And that's another thing you notice watching him and the
- 25:44Speaker 5: drop off to the other, you know, the other guys.
- 25:45Speaker 6: You just see it.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Yeah, And that expanded quote from one offensive coach said,
- 25:51Speaker 1: I used to think Josh Allen was a tier two quarterback.
- 25:54Speaker 3: He just does way too much where you.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Think, Okay, that's not by the book, it doesn't look
- 25:58Speaker 1: that way, it's not supposed to be that way, but god,
- 26:00Speaker 1: it's productive. Jordan Love is the tier two version of that.
- 26:03Speaker 1: At times, he's careless and overly aggressive, but it looks
- 26:06Speaker 1: like you should it shouldn't be working, and he keeps
- 26:09Speaker 1: getting away with things. At some point you got to
- 26:11Speaker 1: tip your cap at some point you're the player that
- 26:13Speaker 1: you are.
- 26:14Speaker 5: And that's interesting that someone would say that, because the
- 26:17Speaker 5: local perception seems to be that he needs to be more.
- 26:20Speaker 3: Caro reckless, or a little bit more.
- 26:24Speaker 6: And a little less reserved.
- 26:25Speaker 5: It's it's it's funny the narratives because when you watch him,
- 26:27Speaker 5: a lot of people think, oh, he could do more.
- 26:29Speaker 5: He needs to open up a little bit, he needs
- 26:30Speaker 5: to try to throw into tighter windows or take chances.
- 26:33Speaker 6: He does it, but.
- 26:34Speaker 5: People want more of it. Yeah, I think what people
- 26:36Speaker 5: want is more explosive places. One more touchdown, maybe more
- 26:39Speaker 5: second down passes. They're looking from suchdowns.
- 26:41Speaker 1: But I think that's going to be a part of
- 26:43Speaker 1: it is the more confidence that you have of that
- 26:45Speaker 1: knowing when to be aggressive and be a little bit
- 26:48Speaker 1: more confident in what you got because.
- 26:49Speaker 3: He does have the arm to be able to make
- 26:51Speaker 3: a lot more throws.
- 26:52Speaker 5: So much of it is because last year we were
- 26:53Speaker 5: here and it was like the revolving door and it
- 26:56Speaker 5: was receiver by committee, and now you got guys slotted
- 26:58Speaker 5: it into the roles. And when Tucker Crabt just back
- 27:00Speaker 5: playing in these eleven on elevens and not just you know,
- 27:02Speaker 5: occupying himself doing other.
- 27:03Speaker 6: Things to keep from going crazy.
- 27:05Speaker 5: When he's back out there and Love has his full compliment,
- 27:09Speaker 5: his full arsenal. This is gonna be something to watch
- 27:11Speaker 5: because it's not mix and Match, and this guy's in
- 27:14Speaker 5: for this series and there's not.
- 27:16Speaker 3: Too many Moules defeat no where. It felt like they
- 27:19Speaker 3: got into that moment a couple.
- 27:20Speaker 6: Of times last year.
- 27:21Speaker 5: And Okay, so the Christian Watson clearly is kind of
- 27:24Speaker 5: like the primary target, but like Matthew Golden's Romeo Dobbs
- 27:27Speaker 5: led the team and targets from that position that Matthew
- 27:29Speaker 5: Golden's gonna be and he's gonna get fed. Everybody's gonna
- 27:31Speaker 5: get fed, but it's gonna be less distribution and a
- 27:34Speaker 5: little bit more consistency, and I think that's gonna help
- 27:36Speaker 5: the whole operation.
- 27:37Speaker 3: You got to see number zero.
- 27:39Speaker 1: What did you think of Matthew Golden over there at
- 27:40Speaker 1: the X because he finds a lot of green grass.
- 27:43Speaker 6: Mean, he definitely does. He gets open minds open.
- 27:46Speaker 5: We used to call Don Tavian Wick's seven eleven because
- 27:48Speaker 5: he always seemed like he always has his ride.
- 27:51Speaker 6: Matthew Golden has that same kind of quality. Yeah, you're right.
- 27:53Speaker 6: He and when he catches ball, he makes things happen.
- 27:55Speaker 3: Wayne said he might have the best hands on the team.
- 27:57Speaker 1: If you can combine that together, that's a that's a
- 28:01Speaker 1: unique player, one that you definitely take that early in
- 28:04Speaker 1: the draft.
- 28:05Speaker 3: And I think some.
- 28:05Speaker 1: People thought Drew because of the lack of production late
- 28:07Speaker 1: last year it was an indictment or a damnation of it,
- 28:10Speaker 1: you don't believe in the guy.
- 28:11Speaker 3: I think a lot of.
- 28:11Speaker 1: It was just getting caught into the washing. Well you
- 28:14Speaker 1: just said, there's so many miles to feed, and things
- 28:16Speaker 1: get away from me. You missed one week with an injury,
- 28:18Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you're playing catch up for
- 28:19Speaker 1: the rest of the season.
- 28:20Speaker 6: The absolutely there's that.
- 28:21Speaker 5: And I heard Wayne just say that the leap players
- 28:23Speaker 5: take from year one to year two, and he's like,
- 28:25Speaker 5: obviously candidate for that. But you started to see it
- 28:27Speaker 5: in the late Bears game. You know, he started to
- 28:30Speaker 5: feel himself a little bit, started to get a rhythm,
- 28:31Speaker 5: and he's from the get go this year, he's in
- 28:34Speaker 5: that mode and the confidence you get. People say that,
- 28:37Speaker 5: you know, performance for teams doesn't usually carry over because
- 28:40Speaker 5: every year's a new.
- 28:40Speaker 6: Shure and there's turnover.
- 28:42Speaker 5: But I think individually players, if they get a little
- 28:45Speaker 5: head of steam going in the last four or five
- 28:47Speaker 5: weeks of a season, the next season, I think they
- 28:49Speaker 5: enter with that, they go through the OTAs and the
- 28:51Speaker 5: offseason program, and I think there is like a trampoline effect. Yeah,
- 28:55Speaker 5: and it's it's a natural thing for a guys. You
- 28:57Speaker 5: know that was a rookie, because you're not a rookie anymore.
- 28:59Speaker 6: Yeah, Which you know what.
- 29:00Speaker 1: To expect and you're understanding what is going to be
- 29:03Speaker 1: required of you, right like you just said, you understand
- 29:05Speaker 1: the game, but how your body needs to be ready
- 29:08Speaker 1: to handle the riggers of the full season as you
- 29:12Speaker 1: were over onto the onto the side.
- 29:14Speaker 3: Uh, you gotta chancee.
- 29:15Speaker 6: Your is much better than the sidelines.
- 29:16Speaker 3: You doesn't suck, doesn't.
- 29:18Speaker 5: Yeah, you get blocked a lot of a lot of things.
- 29:20Speaker 5: I want to see it blocked by play.
- 29:21Speaker 1: And you got to talk to people, which I'm the
- 29:23Speaker 1: worst at because I'm instantly talking to everybody. That's the problem,
- 29:27Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden you're missing all the
- 29:28Speaker 1: good stuff that's happening. One question you asked me right away,
- 29:31Speaker 1: I'm the huddle five to eight right here, on Fox
- 29:32Speaker 1: Sports Radio Wisconsin Monday through Friday after day one. Uh
- 29:37Speaker 1: the look at Jonathan Gannon and cam a Cord uh
- 29:40Speaker 1: coordinating their first your first looks at them during a
- 29:43Speaker 1: Packers practice.
- 29:44Speaker 6: What you think?
- 29:44Speaker 5: I mean, you see a coach wearing cleats that I
- 29:50Speaker 5: was gonna say, Baseball managers, there's a lot of times
- 29:53Speaker 5: you're wearing pants.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Not a whole lot of them are putting the keats
- 29:55Speaker 1: out all right. I mean that that just jumps out
- 29:59Speaker 1: it right away. And his energy, he's he's he's vocal.
- 30:02Speaker 5: I mean, I I don't know, I think that is
- 30:04Speaker 5: that the most generally speaking, on a football staff, the
- 30:07Speaker 5: special teams guys the most caffeated gotta be. Yeah, roster
- 30:11Speaker 5: doing all the different you have all the different facets,
- 30:14Speaker 5: so I think they're the most caffeinated. But he's got
- 30:16Speaker 5: a presence, Billy cam Acord, big time, you got a presence.
- 30:20Speaker 5: And then Agannon you're watching him and uh more, he
- 30:24Speaker 5: looked more professorial a little bits at a bucket hat
- 30:28Speaker 5: perhaps or you know, if you can, yeah, you.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Know, as cool and as uh as professional as you
- 30:32Speaker 1: can in the bucket.
- 30:33Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a there was a moment where we
- 30:35Speaker 3: were enjoying it.
- 30:36Speaker 8: Uh.
- 30:36Speaker 1: And when Nags was sitting up here on Friday, he
- 30:39Speaker 1: pointed it out to me. Uh, you can always see
- 30:42Speaker 1: Bobby Babbage because he is running onto the field after
- 30:45Speaker 1: every play. One of his secondary guys is making and
- 30:48Speaker 1: being able to let everybody know, uh, and hear about it.
- 30:51Speaker 1: Jagger Burton just wrapping up some after practice work that
- 30:54Speaker 1: he had a good flip, a clean flip of the
- 30:56Speaker 1: towel over to a fan waiting down by our perch.
- 30:59Speaker 1: That's exactly what we like to see. Offensive lineman giving
- 31:02Speaker 1: out souvenirs.
- 31:03Speaker 3: That is a win.
- 31:04Speaker 1: What was some of the other good tea over on
- 31:06Speaker 1: the on the sidelines? Anybody anybody standing out? Any good
- 31:09Speaker 1: rumors are And it's like, uh, I saw Saint Juice
- 31:12Speaker 1: make a play or two.
- 31:13Speaker 5: And the thing is, and this is where I gotta
- 31:15Speaker 5: pump the breaks because you see guys make plays. And
- 31:18Speaker 5: then when they watched the film and the coaches will
- 31:20Speaker 5: tell you, yeah, but there were ten that he screwed up,
- 31:22Speaker 5: but one you saw that was a great play.
- 31:23Speaker 6: And then there were the.
- 31:24Speaker 5: Different he was turning the wrong direction that you're not
- 31:26Speaker 5: really paying attention to that we see and then, but
- 31:29Speaker 5: because I just I remember last year being excited watching
- 31:32Speaker 5: Nate Hobbs fly around, right, and then they gat to
- 31:35Speaker 5: the season and he.
- 31:36Speaker 6: Wasn't flying around.
- 31:37Speaker 5: Different story, it wasn't Yeah, he wasn't effective. So yeah,
- 31:40Speaker 5: you gotta pump the brakes. But it's what we have
- 31:42Speaker 5: to go on.
- 31:42Speaker 6: Yeah, the information that.
- 31:43Speaker 5: You're gathering now that guys that we're gonna be talking
- 31:46Speaker 5: about a packer's ot.
- 31:47Speaker 6: All year long.
- 31:48Speaker 5: And again, like Evan Williams, like we mean not that
- 31:51Speaker 5: I didn't think he was a player, but I watched
- 31:53Speaker 5: him today said.
- 31:53Speaker 6: And that guy can play. Yeah, validates it again.
- 31:56Speaker 5: That guy got so Yeah, and I liked what I
- 31:59Speaker 5: saw to season, and I saw a couple, like I said,
- 32:01Speaker 5: a couple of good plays from Saint Jus.
- 32:02Speaker 6: So it's.
- 32:05Speaker 5: Overall, I just get the feeling that this is a
- 32:07Speaker 5: pretty good athletic team with a lot of fast athletic guys.
- 32:11Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm excited to see that fast athletic build
- 32:14Speaker 1: on the defensive end. The edge rusher. We saw Baron
- 32:17Speaker 1: Surrell with the pick six us man ass. I mean,
- 32:20Speaker 1: we've known he's looked apart, right, He's always looked.
- 32:22Speaker 3: Apart in pads.
- 32:23Speaker 1: At least in pads you're getting to see again the
- 32:26Speaker 1: run defender is is there time and time again. How
- 32:30Speaker 1: much he's able to give you in the past game
- 32:32Speaker 1: might be a compliment to the guy on the other side.
- 32:34Speaker 1: And I thought Sorell had stood out again here today,
- 32:37Speaker 1: not only the interception.
- 32:38Speaker 3: He's in the backfield a lot.
- 32:40Speaker 5: And you know, we saw last year Rashaun Garry had
- 32:42Speaker 5: some snaps where he was off the field and there's
- 32:44Speaker 5: going to be a rotation and at least early good point, right,
- 32:47Speaker 5: and then that's opportunity.
- 32:49Speaker 6: So a guy like a Colin Oliver or something.
- 32:51Speaker 5: Like that, like Brenton Cox's guy you watch too, right,
- 32:54Speaker 5: We've been Brenton Cox fans big time, right, and didn't
- 32:57Speaker 5: have a stretch where he had like a handful of
- 32:59Speaker 5: sax in a short like.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Four and as acts in like seven games or something.
- 33:03Speaker 3: That's that's legit production.
- 33:04Speaker 5: Of those guys like he's more experienced, you know, and
- 33:07Speaker 5: like you tell me the value of guys that are
- 33:10Speaker 5: hurt for a while and watching that, some guys far
- 33:13Speaker 5: so clues up and they can.
- 33:14Speaker 6: Improve from that. Like the mental side.
- 33:16Speaker 5: Yeah, Now physically you gotta get back and you gotta
- 33:18Speaker 5: know re establish But you watch a guy like that
- 33:21Speaker 5: and I'm like, oh, Brent Cock could be a name
- 33:23Speaker 5: that we hear during the broad he could hear Wayne
- 33:25Speaker 5: and Larry.
- 33:25Speaker 6: Talking about him.
- 33:26Speaker 1: I think I think he's gonna be a player. I
- 33:28Speaker 1: think he's gonna It's put up a shot up time
- 33:29Speaker 1: into year three. But Colin Oliver, who you mentioned there,
- 33:32Speaker 1: Wayne had dropped it and it's a great tidbit and
- 33:34Speaker 1: one that you kind of forget about. He's like, this
- 33:36Speaker 1: is the first time that he's had a an offseason
- 33:39Speaker 1: in a number of years where he hasn't rehabbed a
- 33:41Speaker 1: single injury.
- 33:42Speaker 3: Just being able to work on your.
- 33:44Speaker 1: Game and come in maybe a differently a newly retooled player,
- 33:48Speaker 1: that's something you can't necessarily account for.
- 33:50Speaker 5: Yeah, you like that because then you know everybody's tired
- 33:54Speaker 5: and sore, and I've heard there's some talk that Matt
- 33:57Speaker 5: Lafleur's kind of getting them.
- 33:58Speaker 3: Off the field and they're not being shut down.
- 34:00Speaker 5: Yeah, but for a guy like that, when you're used
- 34:02Speaker 5: to rehabbing stuff, it's in your mind and you forget
- 34:05Speaker 5: what normal soreness is like, what it feels like. And
- 34:09Speaker 5: then after a game or two, you start to feel
- 34:11Speaker 5: it and then it becomes, you know, a muscle memory.
- 34:13Speaker 1: You remember the difference between being hurt, being injured, and
- 34:16Speaker 1: just being downright sore football tired. There's a lot of
- 34:21Speaker 1: ibuprofen and a lot of sore that's happening after day
- 34:23Speaker 1: two and bats. But the boys will take a day
- 34:26Speaker 1: off tomorrow and then we'll roll into a private practice
- 34:30Speaker 1: Thursday Friday night lights on for Family Night at lambeau Field,
- 34:34Speaker 1: and we'll talk a lot about that coming up.
- 34:36Speaker 3: On the other side. We're also gonna hear from Matt
- 34:38Speaker 3: Lafleur on the other side as we.
- 34:39Speaker 1: Wrap up day number two of the week, our final
- 34:42Speaker 1: day of this week for Training Camp Live, give you
- 34:45Speaker 1: the details of the next broadcast coming up on the
- 34:47Speaker 1: other side, Drew Olson, Billy Schmid, we make up Packers Ot.
- 34:51Speaker 1: You hear it on the Packers Radio network. Wayne Larvy
- 34:53Speaker 1: calls all the highlights. You hear him on Training Camp
- 34:56Speaker 1: Live as well, and you hear it from the man
- 34:57Speaker 1: calling the shots, the head coach.
- 34:59Speaker 3: Next Fox Words Radio Wisconsin.
- 35:01Speaker 9: Across the league about how they, you know, maximize the
- 35:05Speaker 9: communication over the headset. I just wonder what your methodology
- 35:08Speaker 9: is and and you know what you feel like is
- 35:10Speaker 9: most effective in how you talk to.
- 35:12Speaker 8: I want to give you a real boring answer.
- 35:15Speaker 10: I hit the button and I say the play, and
- 35:17Speaker 10: that's pretty much it. I mean, there's there's there's certain
- 35:20Speaker 10: times that you'll give him a reminder. Obviously in critical
- 35:24Speaker 10: situations two minutes. We've got some like code words that
- 35:30Speaker 10: can quickly articulate what what I guess we're thinking as
- 35:35Speaker 10: a staff. But for the most part, I just kind
- 35:41Speaker 10: of give him the play and let it.
- 35:43Speaker 8: Let him go play.
- 35:45Speaker 9: Maybe maybe he's just going to produce the same answer.
- 35:48Speaker 9: But do you have a favorite memory as a play
- 35:50Speaker 9: caller of not necessarily the play, but communication that you
- 35:55Speaker 9: had with with one of your quarterbacks.
- 35:58Speaker 10: Favorite memory, Well, there's there's a few, least favorite I
- 36:05Speaker 10: remember because initially so everybody does it a little bit differently.
- 36:11Speaker 10: But like going back to LA when I was with Sean,
- 36:15Speaker 10: and you know, we had a young quarterback, Jerk Goff,
- 36:18Speaker 10: and Sean would be in his ear for a good
- 36:21Speaker 10: duration of that I guess twenty five seconds.
- 36:25Speaker 8: So you have to talk to the quarterback.
- 36:27Speaker 10: And so when I first got here, I would give
- 36:31Speaker 10: coaching points and reminders to Aaron and he would he
- 36:36Speaker 10: didn't like that, so I guess I was trained that way.
- 36:41Speaker 8: I thank you.
- 36:44Speaker 7: Man.
- 36:44Speaker 6: What have you thought of Brandon so far?
- 36:47Speaker 10: I think he's a really talented guy that I just
- 36:49Speaker 10: love what he's all about.
- 36:51Speaker 8: And I don't know how well you guys know.
- 36:52Speaker 10: Him from the locker room, but I mean he is
- 36:56Speaker 10: an A plus human and he loves football well. I
- 37:00Speaker 10: think he every time he gets he goes out there,
- 37:03Speaker 10: there's there's a lot of good things and then there's
- 37:05Speaker 10: a lot of teachable moments.
- 37:06Speaker 8: But I think he's a guy that.
- 37:10Speaker 10: The sky's the limit for him with with trade, what'd
- 37:13Speaker 10: you think the way take away he bounds back with
- 37:16Speaker 10: those two two menanchicks yesterday.
- 37:18Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that's that. That's what it's got to be.
- 37:20Speaker 10: I think whether you're for any young player, any player
- 37:24Speaker 10: in general, there's going to be some some trying times
- 37:27Speaker 10: and you you have to show the resiliency and that
- 37:31Speaker 10: that's one of the keys to being successful with.
- 37:34Speaker 11: It was Sunday he missed the kick left that you
- 37:36Speaker 11: want to go talk to the referees and then they
- 37:39Speaker 11: stop signaling. What's telling about.
- 37:41Speaker 10: I just want to make you guys work for your
- 37:43Speaker 10: your money. You guys, do you guys decipher It's.
- 37:47Speaker 8: It's hard from angle by design, we would prefer.
- 37:52Speaker 11: To be correct other than I thought you made four.
- 37:55Speaker 9: Let me trade conferment.
- 37:57Speaker 11: I thought you mad think made two.
- 37:59Speaker 8: I mean Ryan is wrong.
- 38:02Speaker 11: I mean it's just what's the big deal if we know?
- 38:06Speaker 8: I mean, you get what's a big deal? Anyways.
- 38:11Speaker 11: I think people care about how the kickers are important.
- 38:14Speaker 10: I know, but it's I mean, at the end of
- 38:16Speaker 10: the day, you're talking about practice situations. I think the
- 38:20Speaker 10: real tests will be will come in those preseason games
- 38:23Speaker 10: and then obviously into the regular season.
- 38:26Speaker 11: That he's missed some And it's it's honest. Fourth, Are
- 38:33Speaker 11: you feel comfortable?
- 38:34Speaker 8: I just love making you guys uncomfortable with this? You
- 38:39Speaker 8: are you?
- 38:39Speaker 4: I should say happy.
- 38:40Speaker 3: It's part of the wrong way to put it.
- 38:42Speaker 10: I just think it's going to be a work in progress.
- 38:44Speaker 10: I mean, we I understand what we're This is not
- 38:49Speaker 10: our first time with a rookie kicker, So I know
- 38:51Speaker 10: that there's going to be some some good and I
- 38:53Speaker 10: know there's going to be some that he's going to
- 38:55Speaker 10: want to have back. And I think that's just all
- 38:58Speaker 10: part of the learning process. You know, I think every
- 39:02Speaker 10: kicker wants the ball held a certain way, and I
- 39:06Speaker 10: think there's a little bit of an adjustment for how
- 39:09Speaker 10: he likes it versus how a guy like Brandon liked it,
- 39:12Speaker 10: and you know, Lucas when he was here, and so
- 39:17Speaker 10: it's just it's one of those things that the whole
- 39:20Speaker 10: operations going through we don't even have. I mean, mattter
- 39:24Speaker 10: Orsick's not even out there, so that that that throws
- 39:27Speaker 10: a wrinkle in it as well.
- 39:29Speaker 12: Okay, aside about us being uncomfortable, where is your comfort
- 39:34Speaker 12: level with the way you guys are going about this though,
- 39:36Speaker 12: Like you're right, you got cal in there. Now that's
- 39:38Speaker 12: an extraneous issue. But yeah, two guys on your team
- 39:42Speaker 12: last year that both made kicks and games that counted,
- 39:44Speaker 12: and neither of them are here competing with him. So
- 39:48Speaker 12: how do you balance the need to have him compete
- 39:50Speaker 12: and put some pressure on him that way?
- 39:52Speaker 3: How do you get a rookie kicker ready.
- 39:53Speaker 10: With I think I think he's got plenty of pressure
- 39:55Speaker 10: on you know, just on a day to day. I mean,
- 39:58Speaker 10: that's why we're talking about this for so long, right,
- 40:00Speaker 10: because there's a lot of interest and there's going to
- 40:03Speaker 10: be pressure no matter what position you play in this league.
- 40:05Speaker 10: It's just the nature of our league. So but I'm
- 40:10Speaker 10: confident that he will work his way through it.
- 40:13Speaker 3: What he thought of condom important sometime.
- 40:17Speaker 10: Again, young player a lot to learn. But I think
- 40:20Speaker 10: when he's gone out there, I think he's done a
- 40:22Speaker 10: good job of commanding the huddle and the operation. It'll
- 40:28Speaker 10: be interesting to see how he performs when we get
- 40:30Speaker 10: to the preseason games.
- 40:32Speaker 4: When when you're.
- 40:33Speaker 9: Dealing with injuries at a specific position group like tight end,
- 40:36Speaker 9: how does that impact how you put together in practice
- 40:38Speaker 9: for a lot.
- 40:39Speaker 8: I mean, it's just but it is. It is what
- 40:42Speaker 8: it is.
- 40:43Speaker 10: So like there's there's plenty of things that we can
- 40:46Speaker 10: work on and work to get better at. It's just,
- 40:49Speaker 10: you know, obviously it limits you in terms of some
- 40:51Speaker 10: of your personnel groupings regarding says.
- 40:55Speaker 7: So when you see a guy looped into U, you know,
- 41:00Speaker 7: situation where he's with the ones because of you know,
- 41:03Speaker 7: whatever circumstances, and you order to see how he acts
- 41:07Speaker 7: to that and you know whether he provides some knowledge
- 41:12Speaker 7: as to you know, whether he's.
- 41:13Speaker 10: Going Yeah, I think, I mean, what a great situation
- 41:17Speaker 10: for us to have him in going against our best,
- 41:20Speaker 10: you know, going against Jordan and the other receivers out there,
- 41:24Speaker 10: so he'll just get more and more reps.
- 41:27Speaker 1: That is Matt Lafleur before day number two in pads.
- 41:31Speaker 1: This has been Training Camp Live, presented by the Potawatomie Sportsbook,
