Transcript
- 0:09Speaker 1: Inside the Birds back, what's going on everybody? Jeff Mosher
- 0:16Adam kaplan for another inside the Birds and training camp
- 0:21enters officially for the Eagles in week two. But Adam,
- 0:24this we know will be a very significant week because
- 0:28at some point we'll talk about it. The pads should
- 0:31come out and we can really start to get a
- 0:34full evaluation. The coaches will be able to get evaluation,
- 0:37we'll be able to get our intel. And that's to
- 0:40me when the competition at camp really starts to ratchet up.
- 0:44As Brian Dawkins used to say, everybody looks good in
- 0:47shirts and shorts, but how do you look when the
- 0:49pads come out? Because I think you've seen this too, sir.
- 0:52Are certain guys who speed their play speed changes once
- 0:56they get these bulky pads. And then there are certain
- 0:59guys who are just like j Brown, doesn't matter pads
- 1:01come out. He's a Corvette, you know, no matter what.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Yeah, the the urgency ratchets up a little bit when
- 1:08the pads come on. So yeah, there's no no, I
- 1:10know they're not hitting, but we got the thud, you know,
- 1:12which means get.
- 1:14Speaker 3: A little bit of an elbow forearm. But you can't
- 1:17take in one of the ground.
- 1:18Speaker 2: That's the thing is, you don't know the Ravens will
- 1:21tackle a little bit out of the Lions. The Raiders
- 1:23under Antonio Pierce is no longer their head coach. But
- 1:26they shocked me tackling for like forty five minutes.
- 1:29Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:29Speaker 2: In fact, when when there was a lot of tackling
- 1:32going on the early two thousands, I never saw it
- 1:34for more than like five or seven minutes at a time.
- 1:36Speaker 3: That was something special. Last year. We'll never see that again, right.
- 1:39Speaker 2: But yeah, So, uh, Tuesday, Wednesday seems to be the
- 1:44target day from which make the most sense because you're
- 1:48you got to get through the five day acclamation period
- 1:50and by then that's that's when the earliest they can
- 1:52do it. But bottom line is were expected sometime this week.
- 1:55Land free practices last week, so Wednesday, Thursday Day, and Saturday.
- 2:01I was at the Saturday practice, which was good. They
- 2:03had one walkthrough. They didn't practice on Sunday, so again
- 2:06they've only had three practices. But we got intel on
- 2:09some interesting situations shot something we actually have not talked
- 2:12about yet. One you had brought up at running back
- 2:14potentially and you might you know, I might be on
- 2:17a subthing, but we'll talk about.
- 2:18Speaker 4: It all right.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Good stuff, good stuff. I want to remind everybody. We
- 2:23had an unbelievable talk talk with John D. Philippa two
- 2:27parter for our Patreon folks. He broke down OTAs and
- 2:31then also from a quarterbacks and an offensive coordinator perspective,
- 2:35quarterbacks coach and an OC perspective, how it structured training camp,
- 2:39how you structure it, why you how you work with
- 2:41young quarterbacks compared to veterans. You asked a great question
- 2:44about that and got a great answer. He also had
- 2:47experience with Scott Loffler, who's the new quarterbacks coach for
- 2:51the Eagles.
- 2:51Speaker 4: He talked about that.
- 2:52Speaker 1: So you can watch that all on our Patreon channel
- 2:55Patreon dot com slash Inside the Birds and of course
- 2:58everything we do from inside the Bird standpoint is put
- 3:01on Patreon first and without ads. So that is the
- 3:05one of the biggest perks of being a Patreon member
- 3:08is you can get everything early before the mainstream gets it,
- 3:11and with no ads. Sometimes people just be like, man,
- 3:14you guys have so many commercials. Well, we don't insert
- 3:16the commercials. Those are automatically inserted, So we apologize for that.
- 3:21But that's how we you know, we're at the mercy
- 3:23of the people who insert the commercials. But the best
- 3:25part is on Patreon for a pretty relatively inexpensive fee.
- 3:29If you ask me, you get it all up front
- 3:31and all ad free. Not to mention that, right, all
- 3:34the great bonus content like chalk Talk.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Yeah, chalk Talk and ask an Eagle. We are coming
- 3:39up for August, which will look for We had Vinnie
- 3:40Curry last month. He was absolutely phenomenal, one of the best,
- 3:43one of our favorite.
- 3:44Speaker 3: We got to get back.
- 3:45Speaker 2: We'll probably have my quick on in the falls things
- 3:49because quick Quickie, we want to see here because he's
- 3:51at every practice. I want him to see everything then
- 3:54pick his brain on it. You know, I love doing that.
- 3:56And you know what, you know what we're also going
- 3:58to do. I'm going to ask my friend Marlurice, who
- 4:01I had a great talk with him his memory, Like, God,
- 4:05I can't remember the running back. See and you do
- 4:08the same thing, like when you're at practice you see
- 4:10a number, you go, oh, thirty six, Brian Westbrook, Mike
- 4:13Shortage for those of you a little bit older, go
- 4:15for Penn State six.
- 4:17Speaker 3: What's that?
- 4:17Speaker 4: I said? We are Penn State.
- 4:18Speaker 3: You said, Mike, Yeah, right, Mike Shortige, That's right.
- 4:20Speaker 2: It was the safety and and uh also played for
- 4:23the Jets, rich Coe type guy, and you can go
- 4:26and then uh Zion McCollum, h Tristan mccuma, I think
- 4:30is now thirty six.
- 4:31Speaker 4: Yep.
- 4:31Speaker 2: So it was just funny. We were going through some
- 4:33of the running backs and you know, then Merrill brought
- 4:36up a guy. He goes, it's before your time. I go,
- 4:39I remember some of the seventy goes. No, it was
- 4:40in the sixties. Is he something?
- 4:42Speaker 3: Oh viewer? I know?
- 4:44Speaker 2: And I was like, I should have texted him because
- 4:46I want to remember the name because I want to
- 4:47look the guy up. So when I see him, if
- 4:49I see him today, today's Monday, I'll I'll ask him again.
- 4:53Then I'll then I'll then I'll have to search for
- 4:54it because I it's it's sometimes hard when you're trying
- 4:57to watch practice, but I'll remember it was for those
- 5:00of the old timers.
- 5:01Speaker 3: I can't remember the last name.
- 5:02Speaker 4: But did this guy play with did he play with
- 5:05Pete peahosse.
- 5:06Speaker 3: Pea hosts right, could have been or Pete Retz laugh.
- 5:09I don't know, but it was.
- 5:11Speaker 2: It was great seeing him and also welcome our new
- 5:14member John who recently joined and get with those Wednesday
- 5:18live streams. Man, it's something else. Sometimes we do an hour.
- 5:23This one was a little bit over thirty thirty thirty
- 5:25five minutes, but sometimes we do an hour. I remember
- 5:27when we did during through the holidays and a bunch
- 5:30of us didn't go away, so I think wind up
- 5:32doing an hour and a half.
- 5:33Speaker 3: So you know, you know.
- 5:34Speaker 4: Nice, good stuff, good stuff.
- 5:36Speaker 1: That's all patreon dot com slash inside the Birds. Let's
- 5:40talk about the first week of training camp Andrew to
- 5:42check goes out every practice.
- 5:43Speaker 4: I was at one.
- 5:44Speaker 1: You were at one separately, so that's good. A lot
- 5:46of different eyes.
- 5:47Speaker 4: I know.
- 5:48Speaker 1: First of all, you you someone you ran into somebody
- 5:50on Military Appreciation Day, which I think was Saturday, correct.
- 5:54Speaker 3: Yeah, this is super cool.
- 5:55Speaker 2: So a guy kind of said, kind of tap me
- 5:58on my shoulder, and it was, uh, you know in
- 6:02military in Air Force. It was Dan Napp, super nice guy,
- 6:07big fan of our show. You got to say. I
- 6:11think he said hello to Andrew. But the cool thing
- 6:14about what Dan saw and Dan's Air Force veteran, is
- 6:18that you know they for military day, which is Eagles
- 6:21do a great job with that. Parry Nickerson talked to him,
- 6:24He got to talk to shake Serry on his hand.
- 6:28Speaker 3: Nice.
- 6:28Speaker 2: He just had a great time. Dan, I'm so glad
- 6:31that you you said hello. It's such a great thing
- 6:33that they do. I know my nephew Brian, who's in
- 6:36the Navy, grew up a big Eagles fan.
- 6:39Speaker 3: Uh. Shout out to everyone who's who served.
- 6:42Speaker 2: Man, we we we we we salute you and we
- 6:44appreciate your service.
- 6:45Speaker 3: So it was it was a.
- 6:46Speaker 2: Great Dan say hello, maybe my dad. Man, it was
- 6:48super cool just to see people in military. I get
- 6:52all choked up from my father was a naval officer,
- 6:54my nephew Brian, and anyone who's watching who's.
- 6:57Speaker 3: In services, we we appreciate.
- 7:00Speaker 4: Absolutely.
- 7:01Speaker 1: We always thank our veterans and first in our active
- 7:04military for their service on this show, no doubt about it.
- 7:08Speaker 4: So let's also recap camp in general.
- 7:12Speaker 1: I want to get just some of your own perspective
- 7:15from because the last time we did a podcast, I
- 7:17had been to a practice, Andrew had been to all
- 7:19of them, and now you've been to one.
- 7:21Speaker 4: What caught your attention?
- 7:22Speaker 3: I mean I'd heard some you know. I always gathered
- 7:24information from people and you know, getting and I make
- 7:27my own judgments or evaluations when I'm there and then
- 7:30follow up with other people.
- 7:31Speaker 2: But he and I know people, Oh, Hurts had a
- 7:35bad day. He didn't have a bad day on Saturday.
- 7:36That First of all, you have to have context. This
- 7:40is the problem when some media go to practices. A
- 7:43guy missed his forethroats, so he's had a bad practice.
- 7:45He didn't have bad practice. He had a couple that
- 7:47were deflected.
- 7:48Speaker 3: He had won.
- 7:48Speaker 2: And I again, they didn't drop that. I would argue
- 7:51because it happened right in front of me. There was
- 7:54a there was a there was a nine route from
- 7:56Hurts to aj Brown. Brown had leverage on Ringo, but
- 8:02it was sort of a moon ball. It was a
- 8:04high arching ball. I thought Ringo ran in a Brown.
- 8:07No flag was called. The rest are there or at
- 8:09every practice, I think just about they hadn't call it.
- 8:12I would have called it, because again I saw it,
- 8:14they didn't call it. I thought Ringo got away with something,
- 8:16now did he? He had a couple inaccurate throws. That's
- 8:19going to happen. Here's what I did. Like this is important.
- 8:24There are and we saw this also, if you saw
- 8:26Tanner McKee there, he did this as well. There were
- 8:29a number of inside the numbers throws. Because we know
- 8:32that it's true. Is the fact is the tape shows it.
- 8:35Hurts is not. He's not inside the numbers thrower. And
- 8:38this is this offense to me is it's not. They're
- 8:42running a lot of the same stuff in last year,
- 8:44but Patullo's offenses. Someone to work with him told me
- 8:48might be a little bit more West Coast based. And
- 8:50again this is only one practice, but I like the
- 8:53timing routes got. It was very active.
- 8:56Speaker 3: I liked seeing that and running after the catch which
- 8:58he's he's standing at.
- 9:00Speaker 2: I just I like what I saw. Hurts also had
- 9:03some big time tight winterer FROs. It's kind of stuff
- 9:05that I look for. Are you willing to.
- 9:07Speaker 3: Make tough thros?
- 9:07Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 9:08Speaker 3: He had.
- 9:08Speaker 2: He had some inside He did miss some, like comparably
- 9:11to the first two practices where it was like ball out,
- 9:14ball out, accurate, accurate.
- 9:16Speaker 3: This practice he missed a couple. Was that bad practice?
- 9:19Speaker 2: I think people were like, oh my god, he missed
- 9:20them first, all of a sudden, he's not doing well.
- 9:22You gotta be careful with what you see and who's
- 9:25who's evaluating.
- 9:26Speaker 1: Yeah, if this is an intentional thing, because this was
- 9:29the same observation I made in the practice I went
- 9:31to he threw he threw a ball to Dallas Goddard
- 9:34along the left scene between three people that if it
- 9:38was not put where it was at the time that
- 9:40it was, it would have been either deflected or intercepted
- 9:43or maybe.
- 9:43Speaker 4: Even hit the ground.
- 9:44Speaker 1: So if this is intentional on his part too, because
- 9:47it's a it's a part of the game he wants
- 9:49to improve on or work on, I think that that's fantastic.
- 9:52And the fact that I wasn't there for the next
- 9:54one and you were and you saw that too, makes
- 9:56me think that maybe it is a part of his game.
- 9:58He's trying to do more starting at training camp. Andrew
- 10:01de Cheko brought up a great point. We've seen things
- 10:03at training camp. We've seen things repetitively happen at training
- 10:07camp and then just completely disappear in the regular season.
- 10:10So I also don't want to put too much stock
- 10:12into it, but it's it's been a pretty good development
- 10:15to see and something that we can continue to follow throughout.
- 10:18Speaker 2: Yeah, and remember as we talked about a couple of
- 10:21years ago. We were all there, me, you and Andrew
- 10:23were at training camp and Swift was catching. It's seemingly
- 10:27like ten passes at practice. We're got all right, it's
- 10:31definitely happening. Yeah, this is why they trade for Gandre
- 10:34Swift and then doanndree Swift as a cure high in
- 10:36carriage and yards as a rusher and not as a
- 10:38pass country.
- 10:39Speaker 3: But it's barely used.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Right, Like you said, like you can only go by
- 10:44what you see, and it's only three practices. But as
- 10:49we we'll finish out a quarterback in a second.
- 10:51Speaker 3: But I don't like to make a lot of broad statements.
- 10:54We just go by what we see. And we got
- 10:56full two years ago and met it. We you could
- 10:58say we missed on.
- 10:59Speaker 2: It, but we weren't like the only ones who saw it. It
- 11:01was just it seemed like to be every practice Swift
- 11:04was catching. In fact, he caught some downfield passes. I
- 11:07can remember the one you caught a bob. Now, I
- 11:09know what you're thinking the right side. Yeah, we were
- 11:12because I saw you and I go, okay, this is
- 11:15what this is it.
- 11:16Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what happened I don't know.
- 11:18Speaker 2: I don't have any access to what the hell happened
- 11:22with the passing game and why Swift didn't get it
- 11:24like we thought. I mean, he looked good as a runner,
- 11:26but uh, it just he didn't get it. So now, now,
- 11:29as far as the Backs getting the ball in the
- 11:31pass game, Shipley man, they ran a route with him.
- 11:36They line him up outside of any motion to the slot.
- 11:39You could just see you're not doing that.
- 11:41Speaker 4: Sorry A J.
- 11:42Speaker 3: Dillon, that's not something you're doing.
- 11:44Speaker 1: I think you would be okay with not being motioned
- 11:46to the slot, but he doesn't want we could move.
- 11:49Speaker 4: Yeah, what did.
- 11:51Speaker 1: You think of I know you said you were going
- 11:53to talk about Dylan in general, that you thought maybe
- 11:56I was onto something.
- 11:56Speaker 4: What did you observe?
- 11:58Speaker 3: Well, you know, I know you said the Star train camp.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Or maybe we have the first practice because and he
- 12:03was talking about how much we did that little roundtable
- 12:06with him, how much work Dylan was getting. He's clearly
- 12:08been the two so far. That's not really up to debate.
- 12:11M But again, Shipley's got more juice. Yeah, there's clearly
- 12:16a role for him, particularly on third down.
- 12:18Speaker 3: He by the way, he might be their hurry up back,
- 12:20which was game was their hurry up back.
- 12:22Speaker 2: So let's not just assume that under normal conditions that
- 12:27Dylan will be the guy who'll come in and Shipley won't.
- 12:30Speaker 3: I'm not there yet. I'm not that that not that
- 12:32we will be right, but I'm not. I get they gotta.
- 12:36Speaker 2: They gotta evaluate Dylan, which is what you were talking about,
- 12:38that he's getting a lot of work.
- 12:40Speaker 3: I think there's I think you were onto something a
- 12:41little bit.
- 12:42Speaker 4: Did you did you not?
- 12:43Speaker 1: Did they run the ball like more than usual when
- 12:45you were there for a for a note for an
- 12:47early camp practice?
- 12:48Speaker 2: They were, they were, Well, it's funny because you know what,
- 12:50O Ta sad. They're all passing camp. So he can't
- 12:52really evaluate a running back and running back slow, I
- 12:54cannot get touched in.
- 12:55Speaker 3: O t as here. You're not it's you're not. It's
- 13:00not thought.
- 13:00Speaker 2: It's not gonna be what we're gonna see this coming week.
- 13:03But you might see a little bit of you might
- 13:04see a push or something.
- 13:06Speaker 1: Yeah, but as a running back, like that's good that
- 13:09you have to get skinny through a hole. You have
- 13:11to make a running back move, so you have to
- 13:12like test your body, your wiggle like in all of
- 13:15that as a running back and then see how that responds.
- 13:19Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and and the thing it You know, we
- 13:23saw some checkdowns. Colin McCord has a pretty good feel
- 13:28for what I mean. I know he's a third string quarterback.
- 13:31It's way too early to call it's way too early
- 13:35to call that that that battle McCord versus DTR, way
- 13:38too early. We only have three practices. I know some
- 13:41people are like, could they really keep four quarterbacks? Well,
- 13:44they kept seven friends of tackles to start. Uh, this
- 13:47was it seven two years ago?
- 13:50Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I tell you the practice I went to,
- 13:52I almost thought it's it's unfair, not unfair.
- 13:55Speaker 4: Listen, the coach wants to.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Put a player in position to succeed, but they ran
- 13:59a whole lot of I don't know if it's RPO
- 14:02or his zone read, but he ran the ball quite
- 14:04a bit and look in a design manner, which is fine.
- 14:06Speaker 4: That's if you if you're using DTR, you want to
- 14:09do that.
- 14:09Speaker 1: But how do you then compare him, Like when do
- 14:12you when you want to keep a quarterback over a
- 14:13guy that you're throwing the ball with one hundred percent
- 14:16of the time. Eventually, you have to let dtr throw
- 14:19the ball too. But again, he may it might be
- 14:21an RPO, maybe there may be the opportunities there, but
- 14:23he's dialing his own number.
- 14:25Speaker 4: Nobody can know that other than the coach.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Sure, And I would I would say this for anyone
- 14:29who gets to go to the training camp practice, which
- 14:31you're generally season ticket holders or business clients, or if
- 14:35you go to the night practice, the one practice the link,
- 14:39watch Tanner McKee get the ball of his hands quickly
- 14:41and you'll see the run after the cash yardage because
- 14:47he processes quickly. And for the second straight off season,
- 14:53he's moving pretty well. He moves better than you think
- 14:55because he looked like a statue in his first training
- 14:58camp two years ago. But not he starts seeing him
- 15:01move better and more mobile, and he can move better,
- 15:03and you think, and he's a big dude with an
- 15:06absolute cannon for an arm, and that it's funny because
- 15:10you see hurts, hurts could hurts could wellin twenty yards
- 15:14that ball comes out like he comes out really powerful
- 15:16right in front of you. But obviously McKay Keane McKee
- 15:21is a giant. I mean, he's a really tall dude.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, tall, big strong arm, and you can see
- 15:27the mobility gets sort of get better by the year
- 15:29as he gets more comfortable with the offense.
- 15:31Speaker 4: He's not a statue, as we know.
- 15:33Speaker 1: He's also not you know, uh, Steve Young, but he
- 15:36can get around the pocket a little bit there.
- 15:38Speaker 4: Yep, let's talk about the receivers.
- 15:41Speaker 1: I you know, the day I went, there was a
- 15:44lot of dink and dunk there there. I think the
- 15:47one person who kind of caught a pass and got able.
- 15:49Speaker 4: To turn up field was Danny Gray. And we've talked
- 15:51about him a little bit.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Andrew has been writing and I think you also observed
- 15:57when you were there Terrist Marshall sort of starting to
- 15:59find a nice little rhythm with Hurts.
- 16:03Speaker 3: Yeah, Terres Marshall, he's getting past his twenty yards downfield.
- 16:09You're seeing his size. He's in his six three range.
- 16:12He's well built, he stands out.
- 16:14Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Again, it's early. He had a good offseason too. We
- 16:20talked about on the last show we did. We gave
- 16:22our intel from what happened with him with the Panthers,
- 16:24and it's applying himself. It's a brout, I'm told, bringing
- 16:27energy every practice throughout the practice, not for half of
- 16:31it so far. He's got good energy, he's bringing it
- 16:35so far. He's on his third team, he's been cut before,
- 16:38so he knows at some point you're gonna run out
- 16:40of chances. So he's definitely his urgency and there's a
- 16:43real chance here to make this football team. There's no
- 16:45question about it.
- 16:47Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 16:47Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, the one thing I gleaned while just
- 16:50watching him at training camp was you can see why
- 16:53he was a top I think fifty pick right or
- 16:56fifty five pick to be six y three over two
- 16:59hundred in the row. The way he runs, I mean,
- 17:01he's he's got a lot of natural abilities, you know,
- 17:04like the old Greg co.
- 17:05Speaker 4: Celism of there's something in there.
- 17:07Speaker 1: He Yeah, so if he can, I'm I almost want
- 17:10caught myself wondering, man, like, what is his what is
- 17:14his ceiling? If he really does maintain focus all camp
- 17:18long and puts it all together because he's the type
- 17:21of guy you can see Jalen Hurts trusting because he's big,
- 17:24strong end can run.
- 17:26Speaker 4: So obviously we got weeks to go, but I was
- 17:29pretty impressed.
- 17:30Speaker 2: Backup X Now they're one negative and ties go to
- 17:34the runner. As they say, he doesn't really play on
- 17:36special teams. That's a problem. Yeah, Now if it's he's
- 17:40also if he's if it's if he takes what he
- 17:43did the off season and first through these first three practices,
- 17:46it's kicking Asswort's obvious he's gonna make the team. They're
- 17:48not gonn worry about that he plays on special teams
- 17:49because he's gonna earn it because he can wind up
- 17:51in the backup X.
- 17:53Speaker 3: With Brown's injury history, it's pretty important.
- 17:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 17:56Speaker 1: I was gonna say, if he makes it as the
- 17:57number three receiver and top back up X, which is
- 18:00what they.
- 18:01Speaker 4: Wanted from.
- 18:03Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I mean like not, but well, Dootson's
- 18:07the three, right, But let's say he impresses more than
- 18:10Dotson and he makes the team as the backup X,
- 18:12which would sort of be like the number three because
- 18:14you're the first guy off if the X gets hurt. Right,
- 18:17Because that was the role they had in mind for
- 18:19Devonte Parker last year. If Parker was gonna do well,
- 18:22it didn't happen. If he makes the team in that way,
- 18:25special teams isn't as important. But if he has an
- 18:29adequate camp and they like him, one hold on.
- 18:31Speaker 4: It's hard.
- 18:31Speaker 1: You're right for him to be like the fifth or
- 18:33sixth guy if he's not going to give special teams value.
- 18:37Speaker 2: So that yeah, he's actually now been on fourteenth. I
- 18:40forgot about the Niners. He's actually yeah, totally forgot about that. Panthers, Niners, Raiders,
- 18:47and now the Eagles here. But he's I mean, he's
- 18:50just turned twenty five in June. He's a relatively young guy.
- 18:54He's got a wonerf opportunity here to play for the
- 18:56World champs.
- 18:57Speaker 3: The Super Bowl champs. Excuse me, so we'll see what happens.
- 19:00Speaker 2: But he he stood out and then man and Nayah
- 19:03Smith is all over the place. Take a slot screen,
- 19:07wait the thing that he did well, and and again
- 19:09you you get there's always an advantage when it happens
- 19:12run in front of you. And there were a number
- 19:14of plays for the offense in front of me, and
- 19:16he took a slot screen, he waited, he set up
- 19:18his blockers, and he got downfield. He did a really
- 19:20good job. So he's been very active in Camfoy I understand.
- 19:23So he's healthy, by the way, he wasn't last summer.
- 19:26Speaker 1: Right, did you did you say you must have said
- 19:30this wrong. I'm going to give you a chance to
- 19:31edit this.
- 19:33Speaker 3: A slot what receiver?
- 19:35Speaker 1: Yeah, a slot screen is.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Yeah, they actually executed it. Yeah, it's a miracle.
- 19:40Speaker 1: They ran a screen, yeah, to a receiver and it works.
- 19:45Oh my god, hold on, write this down. You know
- 19:50why I believe it because it's training camp. That's why
- 19:54he's wearing my Quick's number eighty two.
- 19:56Speaker 4: Yeah no, all right, right, that's right and LJ.
- 19:59Speaker 3: Swith's number.
- 20:00Speaker 4: Excuse me, no, man, oh man, that's that hurts. Shout
- 20:04out to Highland Park, New Jersey, where where l J.
- 20:06Smith is from.
- 20:09Speaker 1: Wow, okay, so screens, that's I didn't see any screens
- 20:12on my practice.
- 20:12Speaker 4: I you know how.
- 20:13Speaker 1: Excited I get, whether it's a tunnel screen or maybe
- 20:16even a tight end screen. I like it when I
- 20:18hear screens being run, and I hope the Eagles add
- 20:20that can add that element to their offense.
- 20:23Speaker 2: This year was it Syrianni's first year twenty one where
- 20:25the screens were embarrassingly bad?
- 20:26Speaker 3: Like? Really?
- 20:27Speaker 2: I remember I used to go off and get really angry,
- 20:29really bothered me, Like I kind of.
- 20:30Speaker 4: Think they've been embarrassingly bad for three years now.
- 20:33Speaker 2: Yes, I don't know, but I just remember one year
- 20:35it was literally in pain watching it.
- 20:37Speaker 4: Yeah, so bad.
- 20:38Speaker 1: Now occasionally they've run a good bubble, like the packers
- 20:41touchdown that that Goddard caught was a screen, right they
- 20:46it was. It was of like a swing screen, right,
- 20:48he checked into it. He just that's a little bit
- 20:51different because well a Goddard broke the same tackler three
- 20:55times on the way, So I feel like Goddard did
- 20:57all the work himself and be it's not like, well,
- 21:00when I think of screen, like a good bubble or
- 21:02an inside jail break screen they used to call him,
- 21:05or a tunnel screen, yeah, something where you get offensive
- 21:08linemen out there blocking and a little guy behind it,
- 21:11you know, weaving.
- 21:11Speaker 4: His way through.
- 21:12Speaker 1: I don't I don't necessarily think these bubbles where you
- 21:15just quickly throw it to the left or quickly throw
- 21:17it to the right with two guys in front. Is
- 21:19uh some great screen, But you know that is the
- 21:21way most of them are these days.
- 21:23Speaker 2: I've mentioned the Tyle Higbee high screen where it's a
- 21:26tunnel screen. But he literally gets so low that's like six'.
- 21:29Five he gets so low you can't see him, right
- 21:31and he, explodes you. Know, so, yeah look got a
- 21:35phenomenal running after the. Catch you got a Butt cockotera could,
- 21:38Run granson could.
- 21:39Speaker 3: Run E.
- 21:40Speaker 2: J Jenkins HE i mean he looks the. Part we'll
- 21:44see if he could push see so folks would know
- 21:48what's going on tight. End it is way too early
- 21:49to know who's gonna win the two. Job Cocker terre
- 21:52still is in the, lead but we need to wait
- 21:55a couple weeks before we have a general. Idea right,
- 21:57now it's it's way too early to call that.
- 21:59Speaker 4: One which one's eighty?
- 22:01Speaker 1: Three SOMETIMES i go With, Bryan, yeah so eighty. THREE
- 22:05i made a note that. PRACTICE i was at he
- 22:07he's got.
- 22:08Speaker 4: A little he's got some juice and shake to, him
- 22:10which we already.
- 22:11Speaker 1: Know mkooma did a good job actually of smothering him
- 22:14on a rollout that hurts was looking for him on
- 22:17or it might have been. McKee i forget at the,
- 22:19time but either WAY i could. Sell he just moves.
- 22:22Pretty he moves a little bit differently than.
- 22:24Speaker 4: The rest eighty three. Does that's. Good That's klan, grantsome
- 22:27but that's not. Breaking we've been.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Saying he's the one of all the three receivers or
- 22:31the backup receivers that they signed that has that you know,
- 22:34juice that that wiggle that you would expect to. See
- 22:37he's more of a downfield guy if you're going to
- 22:38get the ball to him there, Right, yeah, yeah run
- 22:43after the catch yep yeah, yeah and not surprising us
- 22:47a little smaller If i'm not. Mistaken number six two yeah,
- 22:50yeah offensive, line you, KNOW i Know tote is still
- 22:54the backup. CENTER i wonder if this week we'll see
- 22:57a little bit more Of Drew kendall in that.
- 23:00Speaker 4: Spot and right.
- 23:01Speaker 1: Now it WAS i think it was just one practice
- 23:05On saturday That Kenyan green got back to so he's,
- 23:08yeah he's only got one practice under his belt and
- 23:10he was WITH i believe the third.
- 23:11Speaker 4: Team he.
- 23:12Speaker 3: WAS i Think Trevor, keagan by the, way took the third. Teams,
- 23:15uh he. Took he took some steps at. Center, yeah it's.
- 23:20Speaker 2: There they're the The Cody white here is by far
- 23:23the best freecent. Center And i'm not saying they're looking
- 23:26at it right, now but we got to See Trent
- 23:29Brett toth number sixty four get through this training camp
- 23:32before we say he's going to be the number two,
- 23:34center the backup center To jergons and dragons very, limited
- 23:38like he he watches most of, practice takes a little
- 23:40bit of, work but really not. Much you, know they're
- 23:43easy then back you're coming back from the back, surgery
- 23:45so you gotta be.
- 23:46Speaker 4: Careful, yeah you, Know keegan's.
- 23:48Speaker 1: INTERESTING i don't think we would have been talking about
- 23:51this like at this time last year or at the
- 23:53end of the year when we were doing this year's,
- 23:55preview But milatta and Both lynn And dickerson kind of
- 24:00of the way they just mentioned how oh, yeah And
- 24:02Trevor Keen keegan has taken some snaps and looks pretty good.
- 24:05Too was noteworthy to be LIKE i wrote it down
- 24:08because it was more than one, person and because right
- 24:11now the backup center has no clear, option and because
- 24:14it shows That keegan has stepped out of the for
- 24:18now you're only a left guard shadow, here and he's
- 24:22getting a little bit of an expanded role on in.
- 24:24Camp so he's somebody that we got to monitor as
- 24:27this thing, goes because if he's doing a pretty decent,
- 24:29job all of a sudden you're looking at him differently
- 24:32because he's more than just left. Guard got like The Sua,
- 24:34opetta you can only play left. Guard it wasn't Until
- 24:37sue was able to transition over to right guard that
- 24:40the team felt like we can rely on this guy
- 24:42a little bit more and he would get on the
- 24:43fifty three or get elevated and start to play a little.
- 24:46Speaker 4: Bit so that would be a good feather in the.
- 24:48Cap If keegan can, snap it is.
- 24:50Speaker 2: Very rare, though to have a center six, four it,
- 24:52taller it's extremely. Rare, yeah And keegan IS i, mean
- 24:58first of, all remember O to was the left. Tackle
- 25:01army You go signed to be a back up left.
- 25:03Tackle we, al he's played every position, now but he's
- 25:05six six mm. Hmm it's just like you, know you
- 25:08gotta crouch. Down it's a little, harder.
- 25:11Speaker 3: Right so we'll see. IT i Think keggan's in the
- 25:13sixty five.
- 25:14Speaker 4: Range, Yeah jamal was six, four But andy Before andy
- 25:19Hired Howard, Mudd andy loved the big road grading interior offensive.
- 25:24Lineman So Jamal jackson was sixty. FOUR i don't. REMEMBER
- 25:29i don't Think.
- 25:30Speaker 3: Bubble was what five to eleven.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Six nicole was five nine on a good, day but.
- 25:36Wasn't Fre freiley was was probably in that six.
- 25:40Speaker 3: ONE i can honey buns six something like.
- 25:44Speaker 2: That.
- 25:44Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah so but it depends on what you kind
- 25:47of like out of your. Alignment but you're right that
- 25:49normally centers aren't aren't that. Big but But jamal. Was
- 25:52jamal was sixty. Four he was a big dude was six. Four,
- 25:55Yeah freiley was six, Three jamal six. Four so But
- 25:58andy liked. That remember when When doug got re When
- 26:01doug got hired.
- 26:02Speaker 4: As the, coach people we were talking About Jason.
- 26:06Speaker 1: Kelsey it's, LIKE i don't know if he's gonna fit
- 26:08Because doug comes from The Andy road grad And kelsey's
- 26:13twenty fifteen wasn't the greatest. One Even kelsey has talked
- 26:15about he thought that they were going to get rid
- 26:17of him When Doug peterson became head.
- 26:19Speaker 2: Coach but he oh, yeah that's that's a thirty for.
- 26:23Thirty sure one who was available to be traded That
- 26:27and you Heard jason talk about.
- 26:29Speaker 3: IT i was it.
- 26:30Speaker 2: Prior to The Super bowl that the first, one the seventeen,
- 26:33one like because they have the videos out, there like
- 26:37when he was, like, hey you know and then, yep
- 26:39to trade.
- 26:40Speaker 3: Me you. Know they they were they were looking to.
- 26:41Speaker 2: Trade me at whatever the heck he, SAID i paraphrase
- 26:44exactly the, language but, anyway.
- 26:45Speaker 1: WELL i would sink If Jeff stealtlin is willing to
- 26:48play a six, six three hundred and fifty pound right
- 26:51forty pound whatever right, guard which is ordinarily tackle the,
- 26:55Size if if a guy who's six four can snap
- 26:58really well and block really, WELL i have a feeling
- 27:01he'll get an opportunity to at least compete. There and,
- 27:03see you, know you.
- 27:04Speaker 2: Gotta trust The Makai beckton called By statlin's one of
- 27:08the all time. DECISIONS i, mean if you're gonna move
- 27:12a guy never played that position for no one in
- 27:14the league saw, that by the, way and it got laughed.
- 27:15AT i could tell you it was fact around the.
- 27:17Speaker 4: League, yeah the.
- 27:18Speaker 2: Fact that it, worked and it worked pretty. Well got
- 27:20a nice free agent deal with The. CHARGERS i.

- 28:37to know you seeing it with your own. Eyes Of
- 28:40Jordan davis minus twenty six. Pounds, certainly, YEAH i would.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Say because you have to look at he lost weight last, year,
- 28:46right and people, forget he actually lost weight last. Year
- 28:48AND i have no idea what his original weight. Was
- 28:50we know it was over three fifty at one point
- 28:52three sixty three. Seven don't have no. Idea, yeah but
- 28:55the thing where he lost, it, folks is he lost
- 28:58it in his. Chest i'm not going to say he looks,
- 29:01thin don't misunderstand, me but when you lose a massive
- 29:05amount of weight over nine months, now and obviously he
- 29:09has access to The egos weight room to build his body,
- 29:12up but he's not as broad if you're watching me
- 29:15one on. YouTube that's the thing THAT i. Noticed his
- 29:18chest is like, gone it's just Not.
- 29:21Speaker 1: YEAH i actually would say even like last year when
- 29:24he lost the, weight he was still like he still
- 29:25had that nose tackle, neck you, know that neck that
- 29:29kind of sticks out and the roundish puffed. Head and
- 29:32this TIME i, thought, wow he kind of looks like
- 29:34one of those dudes who when they finished playing their
- 29:36career like five months, later you see they're a little
- 29:40bit different of. Shape and he looked like in A
- 29:43i'm using shape as like the you, know like a rectangle.
- 29:46Square he looked in a different shape than, normal like more,
- 29:49slender more, upright you know than then sort of, inflamed
- 29:53if you, WILL i don't, know or.
- 29:55Speaker 2: Oversized, yeah, YES i don't want to look for his
- 30:00combine weight Because i'm very curious what he.
- 30:03Speaker 3: Weighed Jordan davis.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Was wasn't it three sixty or?
- 30:08Speaker 3: Three actually he was he was three forty one at the.
- 30:12Speaker 1: Combine oh that's, RIGHT i remember he had lost weight
- 30:14for the, combine right, right, Right.
- 30:17Speaker 3: But as a rookie he looked three fifty three fifty
- 30:20five and three. Sixty but, yeah the thing, is, man.
- 30:25Speaker 2: And, uh you look at the combine numbers and you,
- 30:28go my, god nobody moves like.
- 30:30Speaker 3: THIS i mean He i'm looking at. Them i'm like.
- 30:35Speaker 2: WOW i mean even as broad jump for his weight was.
- 30:38Good it's over, ten which actually is impressive for.
- 30:40Speaker 3: A guy his. Size, Yeah and and the and.
- 30:43Speaker 2: The, length the thirty four inch, arms tackle, length hand
- 30:48size enormous ten or three quarters sixty six and three.
- 30:52ACE i mean you just you, KNOW i he may,
- 30:56look he may never be what the egles drafting b
- 30:59that's three. Reality but, man you can't teach. Size and
- 31:02the fact THAT i know it's your fortune should have
- 31:04taken him this.
- 31:05Speaker 3: Long we'll.
- 31:05Speaker 2: See but he's, saying he's saying all the right. Things
- 31:09now he's just gotta do. It not gonna have for.
- 31:11Speaker 1: Me, yeah maybe you get like A Brandon graham Took
- 31:14brandon four or five years before it really all sunk.
- 31:16In so maybe you'll get that.
- 31:18Speaker 3: He had to grow.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Up he had the the the, injury he had the
- 31:21a C. L he had to grow. Up stop blocking
- 31:23people On, twitter.
- 31:25Speaker 3: Yeah stop?
- 31:25Speaker 4: Worrying yeah, yeah how about more O jomo his.
- 31:31Speaker 3: First step now HE'S i would never call him. Thin
- 31:34he is. Long you hit his arm over move and
- 31:38he gets he gets in, there, Man yeah you. Could
- 31:41you could see.
- 31:42Speaker 2: It the thing we're not going to know IS a
- 31:45is a full time player whatever that looks. Like it's
- 31:48seventy percent time.
- 31:49Speaker 3: Fifty we don't know, yet but you can bet it
- 31:53was hard to Move Milt williams because of his physical
- 31:54strength and his technique is so. Good, Right, Oh, joe
- 31:58you might be able to. Move don't. KNOW i don't.
- 32:01KNOW i, mean because now you know he's gonna be
- 32:03able to feel a. Lot you're gonna play against.
- 32:04Speaker 4: Him, yeah you, know yeah that's.
- 32:06Speaker 1: TRUE I i so WHEN i go to, camp you
- 32:10probably do the same thing LIKE I i tried to
- 32:12write down last names What i'm, SAYING i just write
- 32:14down numbers because it's easier to see what Numbers i'm repetitively,
- 32:18writing as far as this guy off the edge or
- 32:21this guy in the middle or this guy nice. Block
- 32:23AND i did write, down, Uh, OJELI i think he's
- 32:27wearing thirteen.
- 32:27Speaker 4: Correct, YEAH i know it's.
- 32:29Speaker 3: Annoying, YEAH i know it's so.
- 32:31Speaker 4: Weird i'm still adjusting to these strange. Numbers BUT i
- 32:34did write down.
- 32:35Speaker 1: THIRTEEN i think because, again you can't hit the quarterback
- 32:38and everything is dink and, dunk so you're not even
- 32:40getting a great pass. Rush BUT i thought the athleticism
- 32:43looking spry was there From. Ojeli did you see anything from?
- 32:47Ouch because he didn't stand out to, me BUT i
- 32:49know others thought.
- 32:50Speaker 2: HE i did watch the edges, now oji. HE i
- 32:54remember we talked about this like three years. Ago mm
- 32:57hm when started come, On we're, like, wow he's only,
- 33:00two but his arms are thirty four and a three
- 33:01ace or. Something, yea why the way do you? Know
- 33:04Moroo jomoa's arms are bigger and longer Than Jordan. Davis,
- 33:08wow three quarters of an? Inch, yeah thirty. THIRTY i
- 33:10think he's let me just double. CHECK i think it's
- 33:12thirty four and three.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Quarters, wow Then Moro jomo next To, ojulari that would
- 33:17be like the human, gait, like how do you if
- 33:19they just put their hands?
- 33:20Speaker 3: Up, yeah thirty? Four, well, okay thirty four and a.
- 33:23Speaker 2: Half Jordan davis is thirty four wingspan For jomo's thirty
- 33:28is eighty three in an eighth For Jordan davis it
- 33:35is eighty.
- 33:37Speaker 3: One and a.
- 33:37Speaker 2: Quarter, yeah So moros really. Long and, look he's been
- 33:43a great story so.
- 33:44Speaker 4: Far what the?
- 33:46Speaker 3: Hell WHAT i? Know we talked about why he wasn't
- 33:49a higher than the seventh.
- 33:50Speaker 1: Round i'm trying to think because did he get overshadowed
- 33:53by somebody on his own?
- 33:55Speaker 3: Team there were some maturity stuff BECAUSE i remember.
- 33:57Speaker 1: That but usually like to get knocked all the way
- 33:59in the seventh, round you gotta, have, like you, know
- 34:01really been done something poor hit.
- 34:05Speaker 3: That, yeah should have been a fourth or fifth round.
- 34:08Speaker 1: Pick, Yeah i'm not VERY i wonder if he tested well,
- 34:12athletically not as well As Milton, williams but he still
- 34:15tested well enough that you would have thought he kind
- 34:18of been just one.
- 34:18Speaker 4: Of those guys who stepped through the.
- 34:20Speaker 1: Cracks and if that's the case and The eagles got,
- 34:21him you, Know god. Blessed they did a great. Job
- 34:24and you know the rest of the league will be,
- 34:25like how do we let that?
- 34:26Speaker 4: Happen but that.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Happens you see guys, five, six seven round all of
- 34:29a sudden they come into their own or they do really. Well,
- 34:32yeah but there are so many teams that are obsessed
- 34:36with length and athleticism and he has good WHAT i,
- 34:39mean it's surprising that he fell that.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Low, yeah his first step has always been on a
- 34:44scouting and then being able to see it in practices
- 34:47the last couple of, years.
- 34:48Speaker 3: You, see you just don't know if he's strong.
- 34:50Speaker 2: Enough you, know the initial first step he had an
- 34:55arm over move WHICH i liked In saturday's, practice which was.
- 34:57Impressive but It i'll be interested to see on Ty
- 35:01robinson did see him enough to really have you, know
- 35:05he's he's definitely a.
- 35:06Speaker 3: Backup it's just a matter of.
- 35:09Speaker 2: Are they gonna playhim in FOUR i three Tech, like
- 35:11we have to sit and watch and see how they use.
- 35:14Speaker 3: Him but he most likely it's going to be the
- 35:16backup to A. Jomo now is that For? Jomo is?
- 35:21Speaker 2: It he's getting sixty, Percent Ty robinson, Thirty Thomas burker ten,
- 35:25Right Byron. Young by the, Way Byron young is is smaller.
- 35:28Now Byron young is not the longest. Guy he's just
- 35:32kind of. Smaller jomo looks longer to me Than Byron.
- 35:35Young i'll look up at the, left but he looks
- 35:37a little.
- 35:37Speaker 3: Longer. Ojum.
- 35:38Speaker 1: Yeah we also when the pads come out this, week
- 35:41we really got to focus in On Gabe hole Because
- 35:43Vic fangio kind of shouted him, out, like, hey don't
- 35:47forget this guy mentioning he's in the. Mix you, know
- 35:49the kid From baylor who last year was On. Gabel, yeah, yeah,
- 35:52yeah they'll practice.
- 35:53Speaker 4: Squad and uh. Listen that's another sort of.
- 35:56Speaker 1: MORE i don't want to say it's a moral a joemo,
- 35:58story but when you AND i did the homework on,
- 35:59it there were teams that had grades on, him draftable
- 36:03grades on, him and he went. Undrafted uh so, again
- 36:06maybe it was this or that and the, other but
- 36:08the bottom line is, here he's been in the program
- 36:10for a, year he's learning Under Clint, hurt and he's
- 36:13the kind of guy that if he's got his head
- 36:15on straight and everything's.
- 36:16Speaker 4: Good he certainly has the talent to be in that.
- 36:18Mix all.
- 36:19Speaker 2: Right, technically before we get back To, gabe hole is
- 36:22really long his incredible. Measurables, yeah, So Barron young is
- 36:27actually taller Than Moro. Jomo his arm length is technically,
- 36:33longer But ojomo has a longer wing. Span it's don't
- 36:37ask me how they came up with.
- 36:38Speaker 1: This does that mean one's chest is broader to because
- 36:44is your wingspan include your?
- 36:46Speaker 3: Chest?
- 36:46Speaker 1: Right they don't just take your arm lengths and add.
- 36:49Them they they do from, top from one tip of your.
- 36:52Speaker 4: Hands.
- 36:53Speaker 2: Ask, yeah So Moro jomo's eighty three and in a swing,
- 36:56Span Barron young is eighty one in a swing. Span
- 36:59butN young's arm left is longer thirty four in a
- 37:02aighth where With Joe moss barn youngs is, yeah thirty
- 37:09four and three ace excuse, me that's longer than thirty
- 37:10four and a.
- 37:11Speaker 3: Half so, yeah it's it's it's, weird he.
- 37:14Speaker 2: Does BUT i think what it is Is Barron young's
- 37:16body is more. Compact he looks a little. Smaller it's
- 37:19he's more.
- 37:19Speaker 1: Compact, okay, okay interesting stuff, there And Gabe. Hall you
- 37:24you sensed also with the Way vick kind of pointed
- 37:28him out that there's some opportunity for.
- 37:30Speaker 3: Him.
- 37:31Speaker 2: Yeah, look he's GOT i, mean he's got elite. Length
- 37:35it's just he was one of these guys that needed
- 37:38to be. Challenged it didn't apply himself in college When
- 37:42scott And reports are pretty much the. Same ber in
- 37:43THE nfl that plays with low energy needs to be.
- 37:48MOTIVATED i don't care how tall you, Are you're probably
- 37:50not gonna get drafted when teams know that you need
- 37:53to be challenged At Gabe hall six six thirty four
- 37:59and a half inch, arms wingspan eighty three and five.
- 38:03Ahs do you notice a trend?
- 38:04Speaker 3: Here?
- 38:05Speaker 1: Yeah, YEAH i think The eagles like Some Vic fangio
- 38:09And Clinton hurt like guys with LONG i Think Clint
- 38:12hurt just Wants Clinton hurt And vic just want guys
- 38:15that look Like Clint.
- 38:16Speaker 2: Hurt just like, here right, Yeah, clint, yeah, Yeah but
- 38:21these guys can get off field really.
- 38:23Speaker 1: Well and so, yeah when the pads come, OUT i
- 38:26think it's gonna be. Fun and because the and you
- 38:28see this, too, right you get a better viewpoint of
- 38:31the defense and the offense because the offense always coming at,
- 38:33you and the defense's backs are to us when we,
- 38:35watch so we kind of get. It it's much easier
- 38:38to see the, alignments who's lining, up, where the pass,
- 38:41rush everything from the defensive side than it is the offensive.
- 38:44Speaker 4: Side.
- 38:46Speaker 1: Yep and you want to go To, Edges, well we
- 38:49talked About Ojelaian, hunt but what?
- 38:50Speaker 3: Else?
- 38:51Speaker 2: Yeah, No WHAT i want to add With hunt is
- 38:54is that he may just, be not just, be but
- 38:57he may see more time on for the second And
- 39:00o'jelari might wint up being the sub package rusher Over.
- 39:04Speaker 3: Hunt it could.
- 39:05Speaker 2: Happen it's you, know it's, early or Maybe ogelars is
- 39:10a majority of him Over hunt in passing. Situations His
- 39:14hunt has not developed as a pass rusher. Yet he's he's.
- 39:17Got he needs a lot more time to develop as a past.
- 39:19Rusher ojelari's, there he just has a bad injury.
- 39:21Speaker 3: History. Right it still might be and one of.
- 39:24Speaker 2: Them, yeah it might be sixty, five thirty five or
- 39:27sixty forty play, time but the majority of it to
- 39:31me for number, thirteen as you mentioned, Earlier, jeli BECAUSE
- 39:34i saw it in practice and it's been a lot
- 39:36like it form one understand it's been a lot.
- 39:37Speaker 3: Like this so.
- 39:38Speaker 2: Far you're Seeing olari a lot in passing in past
- 39:42rush situations where you're not Seeing hunt as, much not
- 39:44like he isn't doing, it but you're Seeing ojelari. More
- 39:47so it's something to just keep an eye.
- 39:48Speaker 5: On.
- 39:49Speaker 1: Yeah so for people who remembered our show With Greg
- 39:51oseel last, year the weekly tape breakdown show Called inside
- 39:55The tape With greg o cell one of the first
- 39:57things we started to notice About hunt as he played,
- 40:00more you, know they started to play more on defense
- 40:02less on special.
- 40:03Speaker 4: Teams is that for a guy who did not play
- 40:06the position.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Very much in, college nor play it at a high.
- 40:09Level his run defense is what kind of jumped. Out
- 40:12his ability to shed a tackle and make a, stop
- 40:15especially on an outside zone, RUN i thought was pretty
- 40:19advanced for a guy who doesn't have a whole lot
- 40:21of experience at. That so what you're saying when't surprise,
- 40:24me because when we talked about his development last, year
- 40:26we weren't just talking about as a pass.
- 40:28Speaker 4: Rusher we saw that in The Super bowl and THE
- 40:30Nfc Championship.
- 40:30Speaker 1: Game he certainly has great pass rush talent, traits BUT
- 40:35i was really impressed more so overall with how quickly
- 40:38he was able to assert himself in run. Defense so
- 40:40while he still comes, along it would make sense to
- 40:42play him on first and second and if you're just
- 40:44getting more natural pass rush, moves technique experience from your
- 40:48edges and one of them is as he's O julari
- 40:50and the other Is Nolan smith or.
- 40:52Speaker 4: Whatever however they do, IT i could see.
- 40:53Speaker 1: THAT i could also see them maybe Kicking hunt inside
- 40:56a little bit because he's a little bit. BIGGER i
- 40:57think to play that kind Of brandon him interior rusher
- 41:01role from two.
- 41:02Speaker 2: Seventeen, YEAH i ACTUALLY i THINK i gotta watch. THIS
- 41:07i could have SWORN i Saw hunter as a stack.
- 41:08Linebacker oh oh.
- 41:10Speaker 3: My good. PLAY i GOTTA i gotta look for. That
- 41:13see if they keep doing.
- 41:14Speaker 1: It it looks he might have been dropping back in
- 41:16a sim like he's the. Out he would have been
- 41:18started on the edge and dropped. Back, yeah, yeah it
- 41:20could have. Been could he seemed like he was in
- 41:22a stack.
- 41:23Speaker 2: Position but, anyway it's just something to keep an eye
- 41:25on because we're you're always looking to see what coaches
- 41:28see and see the.
- 41:29Speaker 3: Development but that was. Interesting other than, that on the. Edge.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Nothing Nolan smith is out. There he's, healthy so you
- 41:35don't have to worry about. That other than, that oucha
- 41:39is there a conqueror is out? There That obo's?
- 41:43Speaker 3: There you.
- 41:43Speaker 2: Know so In Power, ISLAND i mean he's running with,
- 41:46threes but he got a. LOT i MEAN i saw
- 41:48him run a little. Bit And Patrick johnson's back is you,
- 41:50know number forty.
- 41:51Speaker 3: Eight. Nice.
- 41:52Speaker 1: Nice so this week or, RECENTLY i Mean Jahad campbell
- 41:58had a press conference and said that when the pad come, out.
- 42:00Speaker 4: He's expected to be good to.
- 42:03Speaker 1: Go, so, uh you, know because he started off limited
- 42:06and we weren't Sure, HOPPY i, mean we weren't even
- 42:08certain he was gonna be practicing at this point in
- 42:11camp two weeks.
- 42:12Speaker 4: Ago so this is a great.
- 42:13Speaker 1: Development and the fact that when the pads come out at,
- 42:16him it seems like he's gonna be out there with
- 42:18the pads on and playing and practicing with the team
- 42:20is really good.
- 42:21Speaker 4: Development And i'm excited to see what that looks.
- 42:23Speaker 2: Like, well and then you gotta that that if if
- 42:26he gets through, it, well he maybe he may be
- 42:30working in preseason. Games so they have two practices With.
- 42:32Cleveland maybe they don't think he needs to be.
- 42:35Speaker 3: We'll, say but it's.
- 42:37Speaker 2: Everything AS i said after the first, practice once we learned, that,
- 42:40uh we were surprised And fanto was surprised At campbell's
- 42:42going to be out. There But vick was hilarious what he,
- 42:44said all the training staff they like to uh unarrest
- 42:49whatever the heck he, said unrested when it got come.
- 42:51Speaker 4: Back that was really. Funny, yeah but.
- 42:53Speaker 2: Look the fact that he's out there and he's almost
- 42:57all inside back are a little bit of edge he's.
- 42:59There they're doing some some some metal work with him
- 43:02as an edge, rusher but it's it's he's almost doing
- 43:04everything inside back. Er he's he's in the works to be,
- 43:07there starting inside back er next To bond to start week.
- 43:10Speaker 3: One we'll see man in the conversation.
- 43:12Speaker 1: Now, yeah definitely incredible and then if they can get
- 43:15him working in and learning his role in THE sim,
- 43:17Package i'm excited all the different types of pass rushers
- 43:22that The eagles, have Even Zach bond throw him in
- 43:24there because he lines up on the edge occasionally and
- 43:27he'll rush from a sim uh in A sim.
- 43:30Speaker 4: Pressure or a creeper pressure as. Well so it's it's
- 43:32fun they got a lot of different.
- 43:33Speaker 1: Guys all, right let's let's go to the, corners and
- 43:36The ringo And jackson thing is still going on.
- 43:39Speaker 4: Here the, competition it's.
- 43:40Speaker 1: Not we keep saying the competition right at left, corner
- 43:43but at this point we have to say the competition
- 43:46at the corner Opposite Quinya mitchell Because quinnon himself has
- 43:50been working at left, corner and then the other two
- 43:52have been working at right Because Vic fangio himself SAID
- 43:55i may need to trail or shadow this guy against
- 43:58the number one, receiver so he's Had quinny And mitchell
- 44:00working on both sides of the field as.
- 44:02Speaker 2: Well, yeah it's, uh it's way too early to.
- 44:07Speaker 3: Know there's, no it's it's too.
- 44:09Speaker 2: Early like last, year we knew after a week That
- 44:14Isaiah rodgers was way ahead Of ringo was kind of,
- 44:16over which is very rare that you would see a
- 44:19competition like that be over so quickly for the b
- 44:20the third. Quarner but this one's completely Open. Jackson During jackson's,
- 44:24healthy he's smaller Than. Ringo ringo is. Long And i'll
- 44:27say this About, ringo and this is Something i'd heard
- 44:32around the league on. Him he'll he'll be. There like,
- 44:35downfield he'll be. There it's the ball, skills it's tracking the.
- 44:39Ball that's where it got kind of lost in the
- 44:42saw that that's where he struggled a bit last, summer
- 44:45Where Isaiah rodgers is way better than.
- 44:47Speaker 3: Him that's something we's just gonna to improve. Now AS i.
- 44:50Speaker 2: Mentioned On saturday, practice he was right With brown and
- 44:54he was. There brown could not catch, it but AGAIN
- 44:56i thought he ran into Aj but he's got length
- 45:00and he's got. Speed it's everything, Else so it's going
- 45:03to take a while to freg this one out all.
- 45:05Speaker 1: Right at, SAFETY i had the opportunity WHEN i was
- 45:08there to talk To, well we all talked to Reblanket
- 45:10chip AND i did ask him. PERSONALLY i, said, hey
- 45:13is it on your mind you know when you're out
- 45:14there that you know it's a contract year for?
- 45:16Speaker 4: You is that?
- 45:17Speaker 1: Tough and he looked at me and, said not even
- 45:19thinking about, it and then just completely looked away from.
- 45:21Me AND i could tell he did not want to
- 45:23entertain any of those kind of questions or talk about,
- 45:25that but it had to be. ASKED i do find
- 45:27it somewhat fascinating that he's going into the last year
- 45:29of a. Deal he's a, starter he's A Super bowl.
- 45:31Champion he's played fairly. WELL i think he has a
- 45:34decent number of interceptions compared to the those who are
- 45:38in the league at his position over the last two.
- 45:40Years and nothing has been done so. FAR i don't
- 45:44mean talks haven't been. Had i'm just saying an extension
- 45:47is not, there and you just wonder how long.
- 45:50Speaker 4: That's going to.
- 45:51Speaker 1: Be AND i have no, idea but it just at
- 45:55the same, Time, adam they've got these young safeties In
- 45:58andrew mccooba And Didney brown and of Course tristan McCollum
- 46:02also working and mixing in in the first, team and
- 46:05it's JUST i just wondered about the whole dynamics of
- 46:07the position at this.
- 46:08Speaker 3: Point, Yeah i'm a little surprised that he does not
- 46:10have a deal. Yet so here's his.
- 46:12Speaker 2: Contract one point four to seven, million one point four
- 46:15seven five million base one point one of it's fully.
- 46:19Speaker 3: Guaranteed that's. It there's nothing. Else he's vastly. Underpaid i'm.
- 46:23Speaker 2: SURPRISED i, mean his agent's Got terry, McLaurin SO i
- 46:27understand he's they're With Buddy baker's working through that.
- 46:30Speaker 3: Situation but, Yeah i'm a little. Surprised.
- 46:33Speaker 2: Now The eagles gave him a one year extension last
- 46:35year worth just under three, million but he got you,
- 46:41know he got a lot of that last. YEAR i don't, know,
- 46:44man it's it's a little. Surprising this IS i this
- 46:47is surprising that he has haven't deal.
- 46:48Speaker 3: YET i mean it could be a modest deal just to,
- 46:51yeah like.
- 46:52Speaker 1: Like Kim curll was the same kind of. Story undrafted
- 46:54guy Became washington's Like kim Car i'm, sorry not but,
- 46:59seven which is you, know, okay so he's a little bit.
- 47:02Higher but my point is kind of an afterthought guy
- 47:05makes a team emerge into a pretty good, player but
- 47:08sort of felt the stigma of being A day three
- 47:13low drafted guy because the free agent market wasn't. Great
- 47:16he still signed a two, year nine million dollar. Deal
- 47:18so that gives you about four four and a. HALF i,
- 47:20MEAN i don't know what the exact guarantees, were so
- 47:22maybe that's not. It but when you see what you just,
- 47:25said That, blankenship who's had a similar type of career
- 47:28here and if not, better right has he's making well
- 47:31how much in this year of his.
- 47:32Speaker 3: Last year one just under one point five, million, RIGHT.
- 47:35Speaker 1: I, mean he probably should be in the three to
- 47:37four neighborhood just based on a starting defense for a
- 47:41really a starting.
- 47:42Speaker 3: Safety way more than that right, now way more than.
- 47:44Speaker 2: That The eagles have leverage here because he's not a free, agent,
- 47:48right but this is this is. Criminal but what he's
- 47:51making this is just not.
- 47:52Speaker 1: RIGHT i, MEAN i KNOW i was being, modest like
- 47:54he could make five to six million years pretty if
- 47:57he was.
- 47:57Speaker 3: A, fregent he make way more than. That but he's.
- 47:59Not i'm saying if he got.
- 48:01Speaker 1: Because Well i'm asking like if maybe we think. That
- 48:04but then, Again curl who had a REALLY i, know
- 48:07he didn't win a Super, bowl but he was considered
- 48:09the best player In Washington secondary and he felt that
- 48:12weight of being a seventh or he only he made
- 48:13a modest, Deal SO i don't know that.
- 48:16Speaker 4: One that was be as coveted.
- 48:17Speaker 1: Either, uh he's not like the greatest, athlete you know
- 48:22What i'm.
- 48:22Speaker 2: SAYING i, KNOW i, know but but he He here's
- 48:25what we do know AND i, understand like it's, same
- 48:27like it's same In Major League. Baseball sometimes the player's
- 48:30greatest value to the team that he's, with rather than
- 48:32being on the free agent. Market that's kind of happened
- 48:34To Cam. Curl, yeah his tape was really. Good it's
- 48:37just not maybe it's because you're not a great. Athlete
- 48:40guys get, knocked you, know that's just the way it.
- 48:42Is is a really good player by the, Way.
- 48:44Speaker 1: Yeah he didn't have, Interceptions, curl so that hill was
- 48:46held against him.
- 48:47Speaker 4: And he's not a playing.
- 48:49Speaker 1: It it's not you, know teams think that they, can
- 48:52these teams think that these kind of guys are really.
- 48:54Speaker 4: Good But diamond doesn't also what it.
- 48:56Speaker 2: Is it's not just, interceptions which are individual. Place it's
- 48:59did you make the play when you're at deflect it?
- 49:01Right did they throw?
- 49:03Speaker 3: It? Like were you? Were? You was your?
- 49:05Speaker 2: Cut like when you go through the, Tape how great
- 49:07was this actual? Coverage there's a lot of metrics that
- 49:09the clubs. Use, yes but reads under. Pay but good
- 49:13luck to him. Anyway but here's the. Thing if it's
- 49:18if it if somehow he doesn't get a new, deal
- 49:21which Again i'd be, shocked but if he, doesn't if
- 49:23he plays it out and doesn't get a new, deal
- 49:26here's the.
- 49:26Speaker 3: Problem mccooba's going to be a, starter whether it's this
- 49:29season or next. Year he's going to.
