- 6:47Speaker 4: Dog was always like hit or miss with the straps.
- 6:49Speaker 4: Moffitt liked them.
- 6:51Speaker 7: But also like I feel like if you use the straps,
- 6:54Speaker 7: it doesn't help with your grip strength.
- 6:56Speaker 4: I don't like now do love some chalk. Did a
- 7:00Speaker 4: little crazy with the chalk.
- 7:01Speaker 8: I feel like the shraps it helped you from not
- 7:05Speaker 8: dropping it, so you could you could hold it up
- 7:08Speaker 8: a little bit longer, but the grip wasn't there because
- 7:11Speaker 8: it's like this cloth, right, you know, it's it's a
- 7:12Speaker 8: little bit slipperier.
- 7:13Speaker 6: So yeah, so I feel great.
- 7:15Speaker 8: It's a little meathead talking in the morning. Okay, all right,
- 7:18Speaker 8: Uh Taylor, what'd you do? That was meathead last night?

- 14:19Speaker 4: you know.
- 14:19Speaker 8: Nobody's gonna be on base, so don't have to worry
- 14:21Speaker 8: about a ball or taking too long to get to
- 14:24Speaker 8: the plate. Yeah, hadn't decided if I'm gonna pick off
- 14:28Speaker 8: to the third base, dug out and throwing at Selly
- 14:30Speaker 8: yet just to make sure he's watching.

- 16:00Speaker 6: Couldn't like kind of cool girl a middle name.
- 16:05Speaker 8: Name all the boys pretty much and so like, you know, yeah,
- 16:13Speaker 8: but no, I came in like halfway here in the show.
- 16:16Speaker 8: I think I just stormed in, really didn't even tell
- 16:18Speaker 8: anybody was coming. And I think that was like probably
- 16:21Speaker 8: like a Friday or so maybe, and that just showed
- 16:24Speaker 8: up Monday.
- 16:24Speaker 4: Yeah, I think maybe I missed the day. I don't
- 16:29Speaker 4: really know.
- 16:32Speaker 6: That was a long time ago.
- 16:35Speaker 8: I think hard was supposed to be three. It makes
- 16:38Speaker 8: me sad. And so on that note, we will take
- 16:39Speaker 8: our first break of the show. We'll get this show

- 19:37Speaker 8: College Game Day is headed to Baton Rouge for the
- 19:42Speaker 8: Week one matchup against the Clemson Tigers. And this is
- 19:47Speaker 8: going to be I think, personally would love to get
- 19:52Speaker 8: y'all thoughts. I think this is going to be one
- 19:56Speaker 8: of the best college game Day experiences we've ever had
- 19:58Speaker 8: here at LSU. And that is saying something because we
- 20:01Speaker 8: have done it as well as anybody. It feels like
- 20:04Speaker 8: we've been on air more than anybody in the last
- 20:06Speaker 8: twenty six years. Certainly been one of the top teams.
- 20:10Speaker 8: But you have two marquee programs. You've got obviously two
- 20:15Speaker 8: coaches that are in the headlines with Lane Kiffin and
- 20:18Speaker 8: Dabo Sweeney. You've got the entire death Valley here, Death
- 20:24Speaker 8: Valley there situation. You beat Clemson a year ago on
- 20:28Speaker 8: their field, there's a lot of eyeball surrounding both programs,
- 20:32Speaker 8: you know, for different reasons. I think for LSU it's
- 20:36Speaker 8: like the expectation of Lane Kiffin and what he's going
- 20:38Speaker 8: to be able to do with his staff here, and
- 20:40Speaker 8: is LSU going to be able to turn it around
- 20:42Speaker 8: and become a national contender again. And then for the
- 20:45Speaker 8: Clemson Tigers, their fan base is Dabo still the guy
- 20:49Speaker 8: that has the juice and what it takes to be
- 20:51Speaker 8: a national relevant head coach.
- 20:54Speaker 4: So you've got a lot of storylines, and.
- 20:59Speaker 8: Being where the game's being played, it really could be
- 21:03Speaker 8: a host of teams, but it being Clemson makes a
- 21:06Speaker 8: lot of sense. Again, so many different storylines that you
- 21:09Speaker 8: can have during the show. But with the anticipation of
- 21:15Speaker 8: LSU football, how excited people are for some new and
- 21:19Speaker 8: to have what they believe is a really good opportunity
- 21:24Speaker 8: to make a run and try to get into the playoff.
- 21:28Speaker 8: And you haven't been in the playoff in a while
- 21:31Speaker 8: to your standard right twenty nineteen, as we all know,
- 21:34Speaker 8: So I understand fully why they are going to pick
- 21:36Speaker 8: this game.
- 21:37Speaker 4: It makes all the sense in the world.
- 21:39Speaker 8: Campus is going to be a movie scene that day
- 21:41Speaker 8: it's going to be incredible, and I'm glad they picked
- 21:44Speaker 8: this game and.
- 21:47Speaker 4: LS you better win.
- 21:49Speaker 7: I actually do think that college game. They made the
- 21:51Speaker 7: right decision here coming to LSU versus Clemson, and I
- 21:54Speaker 7: agree that the hype for the game is going to
- 21:56Speaker 7: be unreal, just because, like what you just said, we're
- 22:01Speaker 7: excited that Lane Kiffin is now the head coach. You
- 22:05Speaker 7: want to see what that new offense looks like. You
- 22:06Speaker 7: have a new quarterback in Sam Levitt, basically a whole
- 22:10Speaker 7: new offense. The defense that you have, like, we're always
- 22:13Speaker 7: excited to see the defense because it's been pretty solid
- 22:16Speaker 7: under Blake Baker, and then last season was so awful
- 22:22Speaker 7: that everybody's just like wanting a good season and they're wanting.
- 22:26Speaker 6: To get back out there to actually have some hope.
- 22:29Speaker 7: And I hate to like for baseball to catch it
- 22:33Speaker 7: straight here, but baseball hasn't been great.
- 22:35Speaker 6: So I think people are just kind of like.
- 22:38Speaker 7: Really wanting something good and football season is going to
- 22:43Speaker 7: be This is going to be great.
- 22:45Speaker 6: I think I think you're right that the hype is
- 22:47Speaker 6: going to be unreal.
- 22:48Speaker 5: Well, since you hired Lane Kiffin in late November, I mean,
- 22:53Speaker 5: Lager wants to throw straight at baseball. Let's throw one
- 22:55Speaker 5: a basketball. Yeah, they a this year. Basically since you
- 22:59Speaker 5: hired Lane Kiff, this is the only thing you've had
- 23:01Speaker 5: to look forward to as far as on field sports,
- 23:04Speaker 5: for met sports. That's it.
- 23:06Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 23:06Speaker 8: Yeah, the ladies have been carrying us true right, higher
- 23:09Speaker 8: run gymnastics and basketball and softball right.
- 23:12Speaker 5: And even softball. Like at that point you were like, Okay,
- 23:15Speaker 5: what are they going to be? They didn't pick it
- 23:17Speaker 5: up till till a little bit later. And no, it's
- 23:20Speaker 5: Lane Kiffin. I mean that's what it is. Like. This
- 23:23Speaker 5: game probably should have been gamed a year ago if
- 23:25Speaker 5: Ohio State in Texas don't exist. But you got Lane
- 23:28Speaker 5: on one side the you know, box office. Everybody loves him,
- 23:32Speaker 5: everybody hates him, doesn't matter, people are going to tune in.
- 23:34Speaker 5: And then on the other side of the field, you
- 23:36Speaker 5: got Dabo Sweeney, who for a while was considered one
- 23:40Speaker 5: of the premier coaches in college football. Now the last
- 23:42Speaker 5: two or three years people say he want adapt to
- 23:44Speaker 5: the transfer portal. Dabos made certain comments like you're looking
- 23:48Speaker 5: at okay, Kiffin comes in on one side, can he
- 23:51Speaker 5: revitalize the LSU program? And then can Dabo Sweeney keep
- 23:55Speaker 5: his job essentially this year? Like, there's so many storylines
- 23:58Speaker 5: going in this game. I think it's perfect.
- 24:01Speaker 8: Now Clemson has finally started to take some transfers. They
- 24:07Speaker 8: bring in a running back through the transfer portal. They
- 24:10Speaker 8: bring in I believe it was nine guys on defense
- 24:13Speaker 8: through the transfer portal, So that is brand new. Remember,
- 24:16Speaker 8: for a long time, Clemson only had, you know, a
- 24:21Speaker 8: guy that started his career at Clemson left and came
- 24:23Speaker 8: back in the portal. And then they had what was
- 24:25Speaker 8: a Bear Bryant's grandson who also obviously played at Alabama,
- 24:29Speaker 8: so there was a tie there as well.
- 24:31Speaker 4: And then they finally started to get some last year.
- 24:33Speaker 8: They get an edge rusher a year ago and now
- 24:38Speaker 8: not fully by you know, not fully you know, cannonball
- 24:41Speaker 8: style like LSU has and others have, but they at
- 24:44Speaker 8: least brought in guys through the transfer portal. But for
- 24:47Speaker 8: the most part, there's gonna be a lot of guys
- 24:50Speaker 8: that you played a year ago when you played Clemson,
- 24:52Speaker 8: and you know, the guys that are missing were the
- 24:54Speaker 8: guys who were probably most worried about when you played Clemson. Right,
- 24:58Speaker 8: They're gonna be without their top receiver from game, their
- 25:00Speaker 8: quarterback from that game, the leading rusher from that game.
- 25:03Speaker 4: And so this is gonna be a big year.
- 25:05Speaker 8: Like I'm not gonna sit here and break down Clemson
- 25:07Speaker 8: football on let's see May the thirteenth. But for them,
- 25:14Speaker 8: this is as must win as a Week one game
- 25:17Speaker 8: can possibly be. That is a program that needs some juice.
- 25:23Speaker 8: They need some positive momentum going in the right direction.
- 25:27Speaker 8: So you know what version of Clemson are we getting?
- 25:30Speaker 8: I don't think we know. There's gonna be a lot
- 25:32Speaker 8: of new now. There's gonna be some names. There's gonna
- 25:35Speaker 8: be some guys that you remember from a year ago.
- 25:37Speaker 8: But again, the biggest names are not there anymore. They're
- 25:40Speaker 8: in the National Football League. So this is as make
- 25:43Speaker 8: or break for Dabo Sweeney as he's ever ever had before,
- 25:48Speaker 8: maybe even more than when he was the interim coach
- 25:51Speaker 8: trying to get the job.
- 25:52Speaker 5: Well, think about how many guys he had drafted to
- 25:55Speaker 5: Jake and they were awful last year. Yeah, it's so
- 25:58Speaker 5: much different than than last year's game. Like last year
- 26:00Speaker 5: you had Nelson Myyer versus Kate club Nick. Everybody was like,
- 26:03Speaker 5: these are the two of the top five quarterbacks in
- 26:05Speaker 5: the country now for different reasons, it didn't work out
- 26:08Speaker 5: that way, but doable lost a lot of talent. Antonio
- 26:10Speaker 5: Williams club Nick. We talked about Parker.
- 26:13Speaker 4: Adam Randall at running back, Adam Randall.
- 26:15Speaker 5: A running back, Parker Peter Woods, like there was a
- 26:18Speaker 5: lot of good players on that team and they drastically underperformed. Like, yeah,
- 26:21Speaker 5: that was absolutely coaching for his job.
- 26:24Speaker 6: Hey, but he got that five star with the.
- 26:29Speaker 4: Christian Football six star, seven star, your ten star, I
- 26:37Speaker 4: don't know your name.
- 26:38Speaker 6: He does.
- 26:41Speaker 5: A card.
- 26:42Speaker 8: It was like this that was we might even need
- 26:45Speaker 8: to play that now visit it. Yeah, I got a
- 26:48Speaker 8: couple of videos. I want to play an hour three.
- 26:50Speaker 7: So also, like I think all like we're obviously super
- 26:53Speaker 7: hyped up for the season, right but right now, especially
- 26:58Speaker 7: after the Vanity Fair article came out, people hate Lane Kiffin.
- 27:02Speaker 8: Oh yeah, so I think they already did.
- 27:06Speaker 7: Yeah, And he's always been a troll and so people
- 27:09Speaker 7: like he always had, whether you loved or hate him,
- 27:12Speaker 7: always had a really big draw and had the attention
- 27:16Speaker 7: on him at all times, which he loves. And I
- 27:20Speaker 7: just think that the clamor one way or another around
- 27:24Speaker 7: Lane Kiffin, it's just it's gonna be a hype football
- 27:27Speaker 7: season no matter what, and.
- 27:29Speaker 4: LSU fans are buying right into it. Well, I don't know.
- 27:32Speaker 6: I'm on the fence, but like.
- 27:33Speaker 8: Mince, Mince did actually put out that his l s
- 27:36Speaker 8: U contact was a little perturbed by how things are
- 27:40Speaker 8: playing out, right, So he said, you know anybody that
- 27:43Speaker 8: one LSU fan they talked to. So he's like, hey,
- 27:46Speaker 8: I don't think they're buying what he's selling down there.
- 27:48Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, that's not true. You even have a name
- 27:50Speaker 5: at the top. He made that text.
- 27:52Speaker 7: I'll say that, like, I'm just not gonna be like
- 27:57Speaker 7: number one Lane Kiffin upon just lover everything, Like I'm
- 28:01Speaker 7: not gonna he's not free of criticism for me, Like.
- 28:04Speaker 4: I think this show showed last year.
- 28:07Speaker 9: Yeah right, And if you don't do what you're supposed
- 28:10Speaker 9: to do, not only were we gonna call it out,
- 28:13Speaker 9: we're gonna give film examples of what we're talking about,
- 28:17Speaker 9: still shots and video.
- 28:19Speaker 5: You're ready for them. Yeah, you're ready for the media
- 28:22Speaker 5: pup because they're going to Old Miss Week three college

- 30:59Speaker 3: me on. Glad to be here with you.
- 31:00Speaker 8: Absolutely like excited to talk about the Saints, even though
- 31:04Speaker 8: we are here in May, because I think there's going
- 31:06Speaker 8: to be some new personnel, there's going to be some
- 31:09Speaker 8: new ways of doing things, I think for the Saints.
- 31:11Speaker 8: We had a chance to see the rookies for a
- 31:13Speaker 8: couple of days as well, So maybe just start with
- 31:17Speaker 8: some of your biggest takeaways from rookie mini camp.
- 31:21Speaker 3: Yeah, I think a couple of different things that stood out.
- 31:23Speaker 3: First of all, I'll start off with you know, he's
- 31:25Speaker 3: number zero in New Jersey, but he's number one in
- 31:27Speaker 3: everything's fan's heart right now. And of course first round
- 31:30Speaker 3: pick Jordan Tyson. The dude is just different. I always
- 31:34Speaker 3: kind of park in it to There were a couple
- 31:36Speaker 3: of years ago, or it was a couple of years ago.
- 31:38Speaker 3: Rather we were in Irvine, California for the full stretch
- 31:42Speaker 3: of training camp and it was Alvin Kamara and then
- 31:47Speaker 3: the first day at the running back position, Kendre Miller
- 31:51Speaker 3: ended up getting hurt so he was out for what
- 31:53Speaker 3: ended up being the rest of training camp. And it
- 31:56Speaker 3: was so the running back position was kind of like
- 31:58Speaker 3: Alvin Kamearira and and like some guys faceically, and you
- 32:02Speaker 3: could see the way that Alvin moved and how different
- 32:05Speaker 3: it was from the rest of that position group, and
- 32:07Speaker 3: it stood out like a sore thumb. That was similar
- 32:11Speaker 3: to what it felt like watching Jordan Tyson. Obviously, still
- 32:15Speaker 3: some good and talented running backs there, barry On Brown
- 32:17Speaker 3: who was drafted in the sixth round, Bryce Lance who
- 32:20Speaker 3: was drafted in the fourth, So still some good talent
- 32:23Speaker 3: there too, but even with that, Jordan Tyson was just
- 32:27Speaker 3: that much different. And so for me that was a
- 32:29Speaker 3: big standout for sure. I really liked the pace and
- 32:33Speaker 3: approach that the Saints took to rookie Minicamp. A lot
- 32:36Speaker 3: of teams either have completely just moved on from the
- 32:41Speaker 3: idea of rookie Minicamp, some of them have even not
- 32:45Speaker 3: had their drafted rookie class present for rookie Minicamp. The
- 32:50Speaker 3: Saints instead went kind of full pace as much as
- 32:54Speaker 3: you can in a rookie minicamp setting, but everything coming
- 32:57Speaker 3: out of the huddle, getting to the line was kind
- 33:00Speaker 3: of up tempo. The there was motion, they used shifts,
- 33:05Speaker 3: They did a lot of things kind of like they
- 33:07Speaker 3: did last year where they threw a lot of these
- 33:09Speaker 3: guys coming in to try to kind of even up
- 33:11Speaker 3: the gap of bit between where rookies and veterans are
- 33:14Speaker 3: when they finally got together on Monday, and so I
- 33:17Speaker 3: enjoyed that approach. I thought that was another big takeaway
- 33:20Speaker 3: for me.
- 33:22Speaker 8: Now, Ross, one of the things that we were talking about,
- 33:24Speaker 8: based off some of the rookie mini camp conversation was
- 33:27Speaker 8: you have Oscar delt Now, who you drafted in the
- 33:29Speaker 8: third round no offense was somebody that was signed as
- 33:32Speaker 8: a free agent in the offseason. And then you've got
- 33:34Speaker 8: Juwan Johnson obviously, who's your starting tight end. And the
- 33:37Speaker 8: Saints last year only used twelve personnel about seventeen percent
- 33:42Speaker 8: of the time. Now, if you go back in Kellen
- 33:44Speaker 8: Moore's history when he was in Philly, he certainly used
- 33:47Speaker 8: it more about double almost what they used a year
- 33:49Speaker 8: ago in New Orleans. Do you expect that to change
- 33:52Speaker 8: with signing a tight end and drafting one early in the.
- 33:55Speaker 3: Draft, Yeah, I absolutely do. I think both with those
- 33:59Speaker 3: two signifiers, but also just like it's what's next in
- 34:04Speaker 3: the league right now, right the league is trending towards
- 34:08Speaker 3: kind of heavier sets, So that's two running backs or
- 34:10Speaker 3: two tight ends, Well, right now it's a lot more
- 34:13Speaker 3: kind of two or three tight end sets as usual.
- 34:16Speaker 3: It's Sean McVay kind of paving the way for the
- 34:18Speaker 3: rest of the NFL over at Los Angeles, who really
- 34:21Speaker 3: kicked that usage up in his offense last year. And
- 34:25Speaker 3: it makes sense we've kind of been waiting for this.
- 34:27Speaker 3: The NFL sort of goes through its ebbs and flows
- 34:29Speaker 3: for many years. Offenses we're getting lighter, a lot of
- 34:33Speaker 3: eleven personnel, a lot of three wide receiver sets that
- 34:36Speaker 3: forced the defenses to go much lighter. Now that those
- 34:39Speaker 3: defenses are built to be lighter, more athletic linebackers, safeties
- 34:43Speaker 3: that can do a little bit more and all that.
- 34:46Speaker 3: Now that those defenses are lighter, you're going to see
- 34:49Speaker 3: the offenses start to change back to being heavier. And
- 34:52Speaker 3: we're just going to watch this kind of go back
- 34:54Speaker 3: and forth over and over again, as we often do
- 34:57Speaker 3: in the league. But I just think that's the trend
- 34:59Speaker 3: in terms of where things are headed. And I think
- 35:01Speaker 3: that the Saints don't have the roster ready to be
- 35:02Speaker 3: able to compete with them.
- 35:04Speaker 8: Guess you know, brother Guy Ross Jackson here on ot
- 35:06Speaker 8: B talking New Orleans Saints. Now over on the offensive line,
- 35:11Speaker 8: I think Jeremiah Wright with somebody in the fourth round
- 35:14Speaker 8: that if you didn't know who he was as a
- 35:16Speaker 8: Saints fan, you probably should because I do think Ross
- 35:19Speaker 8: there's a real opportunity if Caesar Ruiz doesn't come correct,
- 35:22Speaker 8: if he has steps into this season like Wright has
- 35:25Speaker 8: an opportunity to compete with him, and the Saints have
- 35:29Speaker 8: to solidify the offensive line in the interior. They did
- 35:32Speaker 8: so by signing David Edwards, and if Caesar Ruiz doesn't
- 35:35Speaker 8: have the type of year that they're looking for, it
- 35:38Speaker 8: does feel like Jeremiah Wright is somebody that has starter qualities.
- 35:42Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, they love Jeremiah Wright. They were big on
- 35:46Speaker 3: him at the Senior Bowl. He was a big time standout.
- 35:49Speaker 3: You know, we saw a lot of and they got
- 35:51Speaker 3: a lot of for the kind of up close and
- 35:53Speaker 3: personal looks with him with you know, coach Joel Thomas
- 35:55Speaker 3: us the thin head coach running backs coach, being the
- 35:58Speaker 3: head coach of the team at the Senior Bowl, that
- 36:03Speaker 3: Jeremiah Wright was on, and so they got a lot
- 36:06Speaker 3: of really good, strong homework done on this player who's
- 36:10Speaker 3: you know, six' five three twenty. One that Is Kellen
- 36:13Speaker 3: moore's style of offensive. Linemen he likes those, big tall.
- 36:17Speaker 3: Guards you, know we see that With David edwards as
- 36:21Speaker 3: well As dams at sixty, six and SO i think
- 36:24Speaker 3: you're right if there's any semblance of casually struggling or
- 36:30Speaker 3: even if he comes off the field for injury or
- 36:32Speaker 3: anything like, that WHICH i, mean look in THE, nfl
- 36:35Speaker 3: your offensive line is not playing seventeen games. Together it's
- 36:38Speaker 3: not going to. Happen and so there's a chance that you,
- 36:41Speaker 3: know he ends up having a missing snatch there or
- 36:43Speaker 3: somebody else, whatever That Jeremia wright steps into a role
- 36:46Speaker 3: and then doesn't give it. UP i think he's a
- 36:48Speaker 3: really talented. Player he's a little Bit i'm going to
- 36:52Speaker 3: use the word, underdeveloped even though it's really less about,
- 36:55Speaker 3: that and it's more, that you, Know auburn just kind
- 36:57Speaker 3: of kept moving him around a. Bunch you, know he
- 36:59Speaker 3: came in as a, tackle the defensive, tackle then eventually
- 37:01Speaker 3: they moved him over to offensive. LINE i think that's
- 37:04Speaker 3: one of the reasons Why Saint cheneral Manager Mickey loomis
- 37:06Speaker 3: was saying, that, Yeah i'm going to just focus with
- 37:08Speaker 3: him at right guard because moving him around right now
- 37:10Speaker 3: would be a. DISSERVICE i think that that's kind of,
- 37:13Speaker 3: what you, know a commentary of what have, not not
- 37:15Speaker 3: directly From, loomis but it is a commentary on you,
- 37:18Speaker 3: know what happened to him over At. Auburn and SO
- 37:20Speaker 3: i think, that combined with the fact That, loomis you,
- 37:23Speaker 3: know kind of unsolicited Called Caesar uise's, name you, know
- 37:28Speaker 3: during The in To Be your press conference last, year
- 37:30Speaker 3: saying that's the guy that we need more from was his.
- 37:32Speaker 3: Quote that was a pretty good signifier of where things
- 37:36Speaker 3: might be headed. There and SO i think that.
- 37:38Speaker 5: There's a real.
- 37:40Speaker 3: Fire Under Caesar uiz right now and being applied by the.
- 37:44Speaker 3: Organization he's feeling, that he feels the. Pressure he's got
- 37:47Speaker 3: a chip on the shoulder coming into the, season but
- 37:49Speaker 3: he's got to be good on that. Chip and so
- 37:51Speaker 3: if he, doesn't now he's got a young workie that's
- 37:53Speaker 3: going to be breathing out of text.
- 37:55Speaker 8: Now Ross one of the things that they did here
- 37:58Speaker 8: in the offseason to step away from the he's for a.
- 38:00Speaker 8: Bit they trade For Tyree wilson during the, draft a
- 38:04Speaker 8: former top ten pick they got for a fifth. Rounder
- 38:06Speaker 8: they Signed Anthony jennings as well on the outside to
- 38:10Speaker 8: give you, some you, know some depth at the edge rusher. Position,
- 38:14Speaker 8: now a lot Of saints fans are going to ask the, Question,
- 38:17Speaker 8: okay if you Sign, jennings you trade For, wilson why
- 38:19Speaker 8: not Sign Cam. Jordan he's played fifteen years for your.
- 38:22Speaker 8: Team his number is going to be at the top
- 38:24Speaker 8: of the stadium when he. Retires he has been a
- 38:27Speaker 8: top five player in the history of your, franchise and
- 38:30Speaker 8: he had ten and a half sacks last.
- 38:31Speaker 4: Year he was.
- 38:32Speaker 8: Productive so you're making these moves and not Signing. Cam
- 38:35Speaker 8: cam still. Available we know he made six million and
- 38:38Speaker 8: some change last. Year he probably want somewhere closer to.
- 38:42Speaker 8: TEN i don't know that you're willing to go. There
- 38:44Speaker 8: but a lot Of saints fans were also going to
- 38:46Speaker 8: ask the, question why not if you're still trying to
- 38:48Speaker 8: bring in players at the.
- 38:49Speaker 3: Position, YEAH i think it's what you just. Mentioned it's
- 38:53Speaker 3: the fiscal responsibility of, growth, RIGHT i, mean this is
- 38:56Speaker 3: an approach The saints are now taking now that they're
- 38:58Speaker 3: in some salary cap healthier to where they're not going
- 39:02Speaker 3: out there and you, know giving a bunch of money
- 39:04Speaker 3: to aging players like they once were and all. That
- 39:07Speaker 3: Now Cam jordan is much more than. That he's not
- 39:09Speaker 3: just a player who has an. Age he is a
- 39:12Speaker 3: player who at his age is remarkably, productive and so you,
- 39:16Speaker 3: know he deserves that. Credit BUT i do think that
- 39:18Speaker 3: there is a sense of having to make sure that
- 39:20Speaker 3: If Cam jordan does return To New, orleans that there's
- 39:23Speaker 3: a role that makes sense for him and for The.
- 39:26Speaker 3: Saints they have to make sure that it's at a
- 39:28Speaker 3: contract level and protection that makes sense to. Them and
- 39:31Speaker 3: so it is a little bit of work on both
- 39:34Speaker 3: sides in order to get. THERE i don't think that
- 39:37Speaker 3: the trade to Acquire Tyree wilson nor the signing Of
- 39:40Speaker 3: Amparty jennings precludes you from going after and bringing Back Cam.
- 39:46Speaker 3: JORDAN i don't think either of those guys brings to
- 39:48Speaker 3: you What Cam jordan brings to. You you, Know Tyrie,
- 39:52Speaker 3: wilson this is WHAT i was drafted number seven, Overall,
- 39:54Speaker 3: yes but is somebody that also could probably use a
- 39:57Speaker 3: little bit more. Fire he's somebody that needs to prove
- 40:00Speaker 3: something on the. Field all, that there's still question marks around.
- 40:02Speaker 3: Him there's still a question mark about where he even.
- 40:04Speaker 3: Plays do you play him at as a stand up bed,
- 40:06Speaker 3: rusher to use him as a five tech you, know
- 40:09Speaker 3: run stopper and all. That so there's still question marks around.
- 40:11Speaker 3: That and that's a good example of how you can
- 40:14Speaker 3: allow both him And Cam jordan maybe even coexists on
- 40:20Speaker 3: a football field. Together Anthony jennings again very good run,
- 40:23Speaker 3: stopper wants to prove he can be a pass. RUSHER
- 40:25Speaker 3: i think has the fire to be a little bit
- 40:27Speaker 3: more impactful, immediately but still not you know what you're
- 40:31Speaker 3: what you could have in A Cam jordan based on
- 40:33Speaker 3: what you saw from him last. Year SO i don't
- 40:35Speaker 3: think the book is closed. THERE i don't think that
- 40:37Speaker 3: Anything thinks has done so far precludes them from continuing
- 40:40Speaker 3: to turn those pages. Either and so we'll see exactly
- 40:43Speaker 3: how things. Go but it has to be a little
- 40:45Speaker 3: bit of a tight rope walk because The saints are
- 40:46Speaker 3: not going to be willing to commit too much money
- 40:49Speaker 3: to a player at a certain point in their, career
- 40:52Speaker 3: and of course they have to be able to provide
- 40:54Speaker 3: the role That cam is going to want at this
- 40:56Speaker 3: point in his career as.
- 40:57Speaker 4: Well all right there.
- 40:59Speaker 8: He is our Guy Raw jackson At Ross Jackson nola
- 41:02Speaker 8: is the handle game of follow on social. Media check
- 41:04Speaker 8: out his articles On Louisiana Sports Dot nett always doing big.
- 41:08Speaker 8: Things they're also host Of locked On. Saints he is.

- 41:18Speaker 4: Safe yeah you as.
- 41:19Speaker 8: Well great breakdown as, always and SOMETHING i do want
- 41:22Speaker 8: to talk about when we come. Back Like Cam jordan's
- 41:26Speaker 8: played fifteen years for The New Orleans. Saints he was
- 41:29Speaker 8: really good just a year. Ago you're trying to bring
- 41:33Speaker 8: in people and Like ross, said not to necessarily replace
- 41:37Speaker 8: him because these players Aren't Cam. Jordan but you're spending
- 41:40Speaker 8: resources and you're spending money on bringing people. In if
- 41:44Speaker 8: you don't want to Pay cam as, much you're paying
- 41:47Speaker 8: those two players as. Salary it just feels like if
- 41:51Speaker 8: you would have Brought cam, back then you wouldn't have
- 41:54Speaker 8: had to go get those. Players and it's a very
- 41:57Speaker 8: interesting conversation because of what he means the franchise in
- 42:01Speaker 8: the city in the locker room and between the white,
- 42:04Speaker 8: lines and we'll have it close out our number one

- 44:35Speaker 8: well then he comes back and he has ten and
- 44:37Speaker 8: a half just last, year and for, me just doesn't
- 44:40Speaker 8: make a lot of. Sense if we're going to Sign Anthony,
- 44:43Speaker 8: jennings if we're going to go out and make a,
- 44:46Speaker 8: trade and that was a fifth round, pick but you
- 44:47Speaker 8: gave up. Something you gave up an asset For Tyree,
- 44:50Speaker 8: wilson and, look you declined his fifth year, options so
- 44:52Speaker 8: you're not gonna give him that huge, money but you're
- 44:54Speaker 8: still paying him a first round. Salary SO i look
