The DiCecco Daily: An Early Preview Of What To Watch For In Preseason Opener · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome into another episode of The check Odaily.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: It's Andrew de Checo, Eagles beat reporter for Inside the
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Birds dot com, and today is an off day for us.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: We were not at practice, but we will return to
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: practice Thursday for the final one of the week, as
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: we are now days away from the Eagles preseason opener
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: at MT.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: And T.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Banks Stadium that's in Baltimore, when they take on the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Ravens Saturday night. And I understand that preseason football isn't
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: top of mind.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It's not something that.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: You're gonna be overly enthused about, at least the vast majority.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Some will simply be intrigued and excited to see the
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: first glimpse of the twenty twenty six Eagles. And I'm
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: here to tell you certain things that I'll be keeping
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: an eye on. We'll get into players that I'll be
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: watching later in the week.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about some.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Of the roster decisions and all of that later on,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: but I want to talk about certain areas that I
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: will be keeping an eye on on Saturday night, and
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: maybe that will give you some viewing interest as you
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: watch this game. And I can tell you this from
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: watching ten practices that these are positions and areas that
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: warrant some an extra set of eyes or some close attention,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: I should say, And we'll start with the reserve offensive line.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: There's already eight spots that are determined, right you have
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Jordan Mylotta, Landon, Dickerson, Cam Jurgens, Tyler Steen, Lane Johnson,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Mark Kelbell, Drew Kendall, and more than.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Likely Fred Johnson.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: But there's probably two or maybe even three spots that
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: have yet to be determined. There's been some positive moments
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: from a lot of young players in camp. Now it's
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: about carrying that over into the preseason. I think, for example,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: someone like a Willie Lampkin, who for those of you
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: who don't know where it's number sixty one, it's five
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: eleven two and ninety pounds. He's a spark plug. He's
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: incredibly strong and technical. So don't necessarily judge a book
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: by its cover, because he does. You have to look
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: about the you have to look at the results and
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: what he's able to do when he's out there, and
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: he plays with a really good, strong anchor really technically
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: sound and whether it's you name it, a defensive lineman,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: an offensive lineman, they've they've sort of sung the praises
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: of Willie Lampkin in training camp, and he gives really
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: good effort. He has been cross trained at guard. He's
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: a center by trade. For to back things up a
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: little bit, the Eagles claim boy Lampkin last summer after
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: cutdowns that he was with the Rams. He had a
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: good training camp with the Rams. He had good tape
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: last preseason, but he suffered an injury. He was waived,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: the Eagles claimed him, then he was placed on IR
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: didn't participate in.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: A single game last season.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: So there's not a lot that's known from an Eagles
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: perspective about Willy Lampkin. But I'm here to tell you
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: that in practices he has shown signs of promise. I
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: think he's gotten better as training camp has gone on,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: and he's drawn a lot of praise from teammates, like
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: most recently Byron Young, who has called him a pest
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: in the run game and the pass game. So he's
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: someone that I'll be keeping an eye on, probably mostly
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: as a center, but if they cross train him at
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: guard in this game, I'll be really interested to see
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: how he handles himself. Most recently, he spent the last
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: two practices at left guard. Prior to that, he had
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: two practices at right guard, and it seems like the
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Eagles are really going to give him a big opportunity
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to earn a roster spot. Then there's the two day
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: three draftees from last year who I've been a little
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: bit down on this summer, and that's Miles Hinton and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Cameron Williams. Both players have really worked exclusively with the
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: third team in camp, but they're going to get a
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: lot of opportunities, a lot of snaps and a lot
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of opportunities to build, you know, to get some things
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: on tape this time around. And Cameron Williams is more
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: of a he's a raw player, but you can see
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: signs of growth this year. That was pretty apparent to me.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Miles Hinton I haven't quite seen as much with. I
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: think Cameron Williams offers a little bit more upside.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: But both players, to.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Be clear, are on the third team and I want
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: to see how the Eagles use them. Because Miles Hinton
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: has cross trained at guard and tackle, he's a tackle
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: by trade.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Both players have.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I think a little bit of a little bit of
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: a ceiling. But Cameron Williams play in one game last season.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I thought he did a nice job, but for whatever reason,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: he hasn't been able to leap to.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: The second team.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: That's where you've mostly seen some combination of markl Bellfred Johnson,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: John Adjuquo.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: And that's another player that I'll be keeping an eye on.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: But I want to see what the twenty twenty five
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Day three picks and Cameron Williams and Miles Sentton are
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: able to do out there. And the preseasons another part
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: of this equation. Practices count for an awful lot in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: terms of the evaluation process, but so does the preseason,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: maybe to a lesser degree, but you want to see
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: how these guys go out there and to quit themselves
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: when they're able to go out there and perform against
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: the team you know, you know someone with a different
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: jersey on. There's also Jake Majors. Jake Majors is a
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: second year player. He was on the Eagles practice squad
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: for all but one week last season. Undrafted free agent
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, suffered an injury at the
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: end of camp, waived, then he joins the Eagles after
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Week one. Shorter arms for that position. But he is
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: a tech, technically sound player, highly intelligent. Started fifty six
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: games at the University of Texas, which is a program record,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: and there's been moments in camp that he stands out
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: to me.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: I can see the potential.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: And he was on the practice squad last year, so
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: he had a chance to learn from players like Bret
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: tove Like. He was growing alongside Drew Kendall. They were
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: both rookies last season. Willie Lampkin was a rookie last season,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: so they all sort of are coming up through the
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: ranks together. But I do know from experience from being
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: there that Brett Toad that has mentored all of the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: players that I just mentioned and helped him develop, you know,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: add some more seasoning to his game. But this is
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: someone that coming out of the University of Texas I
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: had a day three grade on. I understood that maybe
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: he didn't have the prototypical measure that you'd like, but
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: there's something to be said for the toughness, the durability,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the experience at a premiere program in college football, and
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I just think that this is a very very intelligent,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: very intelligent person. And Jake majors he's able to diagnose things,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: and I think that that could reveal itself in the preseason.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: He's also cross trained at guard as well. He's the
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Eagles second team right guard on the first and unofficial
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: depth chart, so that's something that I'll.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Certainly be keeping an eye on. Look.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: He has an uphill battle to make the roster, to
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: be clear, but he has had some moments in camp
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that to me suggests that the Eagles might.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Have something there.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: I have a hard time finding a place for him
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: on the fifty three right now, but that's another young player.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Michael Morris at the University of Georgia is another young
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: player that I am very curious to see how he
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: handles himself in his first NFL game. Because he has
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: mostly repped with the third team, He's had some moments
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: where he's been on.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: The second team.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Injuries and things like that have factored into that, but
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: we'll see what he can do. He's a six round
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: pick and the Eagles need interior depth, so perhaps Michael
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Morris can put together a strong preseason and help his
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: chances of making the roster. I'm also going to be
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: looking at the safety position beyond Drew mccoob. I'm looking
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: at Marcus Epps and Michael Carter because both players I
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: think have held up well in training camp. Michael Carter,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: to me, is coming on a little bit. I think
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: he's had the better summer. He's around the football a
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: little bit more. He covers more ground than Marcus Epps,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Whereas Marcus Epps has played the position, He's played in
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: a number of games then started a number of games
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: in the NFL, and there's clearly a trust factor there
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: with Epps and from the perspective of Vic Vangio, and
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: there's something to be for that. If you're looking for
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: someone with more upside who can provide a little bit
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: more of a spark on the back end and maybe
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: generate some turnovers, Michael Carter is going to be your guy.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: He also has a lot of versatility to his game,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: which allows you to do some different things defensively in
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: terms of being multiple and you can deploy certain players
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: in different places because of that gives you more flexibility.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: I want to see how he can do in another
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: opportunity to play some safety. He played safety in the
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: season finale. He played at over sixty snaps and I
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: believe it that had to give the Eagles some sort
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: of confidence or at least pique their interest enough to
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: give him this long look.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: This summer, and we'll see what he's able to do.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: But I can tell you that he's come on a
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: little bit, and Marcus SEPs has had a quieter summer.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: That's not always a bad thing for a safety, and
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I would also argue that to be an effective safety
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: in a pic Fangio defense, I don't believe that you
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: need to be a superstar. There are certain things that you.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Have to have.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: You have to have high level football intelligence, you have
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: to be disciplined, and you have to be someone that
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: is as Sigmon sound, and so he checks off all
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: of those boxes. He's not a flashy player, but neither
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: really was Red Blanket Ship.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: I know how I feel when I wake up in
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: the morning. I have so many things on my mind.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: I can't get any of this done until I have
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: my first cup of coffee. I know a lot of
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: you feel the same way. You either need that coffee,
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: that nicotine pouch, maybe even energy drink to get yourself

  Speaker 3: through the day. We go to these great lengths to
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: stay healthy, whether it's going to the gym or trying
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: to get the right amount of sleep, eating better, then
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: we'll put these chemicals in our body just to make
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: it through the day. But I've been using ultrapouches for

• 14:25
  Speaker 1: And other players that you can look at that have
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: played that position for Fangio at different points in his
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: coaching career.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: So that is something that I will be looking at.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Keep in mind that Cooper Degen will be the Eagle
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: safety when they were in base defense alongside Drew mccouba,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: and the Eagles could be in base.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: A little bit more this year.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: I think that that's actually going to be something that
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: could come the fruition, and it's not out of certainly
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: not out of the realm of possibility. Vic Vanjo has
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: sort of intimated that that could be the case. But
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: when the Eagles are in Nickel, it's going to be
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: at this point either Marcus EPs or Michael Carter, and
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: I want to see which player sort of rises to
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: the occasion and who has the better summer Because in
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: camp right now, I'm gonna tell you that I think
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Michael Carter has had the better training camp.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Then you have to look at the depth at.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: The cornerback position, because beyond Quinnon, Mitchell, rieq Wohen Cooper
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: dejen is a nickelback, but there's Jonathan Jones, there's Mac McWilliams,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: there's Jacoryan Bennett, Keeley Ringo andbry Thomas.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: But really, no one's stepped up to the plate.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: No one has had a camp that to me says
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: they're putting their stamp on this spot and rounding out
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: this cornerback room. There's still a lot that has yet
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: to be determined in the in the preseason. If you're
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: asking me right now, going into week one of the preseason,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you that Mac McWilliams, the second
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: year cornerback out of UCF, has the best chance. Vic
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Vangio mentioned the difference that he's seen in McWilliams from
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: year one to year two, and he specified the maturity
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: that he's noted and said that there are certain things
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: that he can't.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Say, but he's so you could tell that he really.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Was able to reach Mac and find different ways to
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: motivate him and light a fire under him. He only
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: played in five games last year, very minimally on defense,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: very minimally on special teams. But he's added weight this summer.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: He's playing faster and with more confidence. That to me
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: is very apparent. And when Quinja Mitchell left practice on
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: what day is it, I have no idea Tuesday, it
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: was Mac McWilliams who got the nod to replace him
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: opposite Riek Wollen. Keep in mind, Jonathan Jones wasn't there,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: he was injured and not practicing. But it is interesting
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: because you have other players like Jacoryan Bennett and keiey
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Ringo who have started games and in the case of
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Jacoryan Bennett, at one point or another, offered upside and
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: intrigue here in Philadelphia.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: The Eagles traded for him just last summer, but the.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Eagles instead turned to Mac McWilliams, And I think that
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: that right there is a nod to the second year
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: cornerback and a testament to the work that he's put
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: in behind the scenes. He's added muscle, he's gotten stronger,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: but he's also someone that to me looks like a
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: player that has much more confidence and a firmer grasp
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: on his assignments.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: And his role within this defense.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: And that speaks volumes when it comes to Vic Vangil
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: and what he looks for. So that backup cornerback spot,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: to me, is something that I will be really keying
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: in on the preseason games. Might be what separates one
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: player from the next. There's sort of a log jam there,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: but no one has separated themselves to this point, and
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: I would say that that's probably a position that I
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: have highlighted.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: Hey, Philly fans, game day is stressful enough. Parking, traffic,
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: long line, We've all been there, But when it comes
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: to your cannabis, Camden Apothecary makes it easy. This is
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: the dispensary for sports fans, just minutes outside of Philly,
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: with plenty of free parking.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: You'll be in and out.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: Fast, no hassle, no waiting, and they don't just care
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: about convenience. Camedn Apothecary is all about the guest experience.

• 18:40
  Speaker 4: They even show love to the community with specials for fans, students,
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: service members, and healthcare pros camedn Apothecary, top quality cannabis,
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: great prices, and an experience made for Philly fans twenty
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: one and up.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Because of that, because of the lack of depth, and
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: you don't know what the end. It's a shoulder injury
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: to Jonathan Jones, but you don't know the extent of it.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: You don't know if that's going to keep him out.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I don't think Jonathan Jones has had a particularly eye
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: opening training camp.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: You know what he is.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: He's going to be thirty three years old in September,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: and he can play in multiple positions. You like the
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: toughness in leadership, and he's been in multiple defenses, so
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: that right there gives you a comfortability. But really, I
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: don't know that you can sort of write his name
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: in penn on the fifty three either.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: So we'll see what happens there.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: But I just gave you three different position groups to
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: keen on, and I can't wait to see how this
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: all unfolds and what happens when the Eagles now get
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: to play a different team. They'll be in New England
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: next week for joint practices. I can't wait for that.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Adam Kaplan and myself will be there, and there's a
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: lot more to unpack the rest of this week as well.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: They have another practice on Thursday and the game will
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: be Saturday, as I mentioned, But for now, that's going
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: to do it for this episode of The check Odaily.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I'm Andrew de Checo, and I'll catch you all on
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: the next one.
