Transcript
- 0:05[SPEAKER_02]: with Nick Kendall and Scott Kennedy.
- 0:08[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome, and welcome in good morning, good morning.
- 0:10[SPEAKER_00]: It is Monday, July, twenty-first, seven, forty.
- 0:14[SPEAKER_00]: Mountain time.
- 0:15[SPEAKER_00]: I am Nick Kendall joined by Dylan.
- 0:17[SPEAKER_00]: Dylan, good to see you.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_00]: How was your weekend?
- 0:19[SPEAKER_00]: Did you do anything fun?
- 0:20[SPEAKER_00]: Did you get outside?
- 0:21[SPEAKER_00]: Did you have some adult beverages?
- 0:23[SPEAKER_00]: What was going on?
- 0:25[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it was pretty lazy.
- 0:26[SPEAKER_01]: I went and saw Superman for the second time because my girlfriend had seen it and I was very excited to go see the second time.
- 0:34[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a big fan of it.
- 0:35[SPEAKER_01]: But other than that, just kicking my feet up and getting some relaxation time.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_00]: Nice.
- 0:42[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that's good.
- 0:42[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I went up the visit at some friends parents house up in a belly in him, Washington, which is really, really beautiful, a really beautiful spot up there, about an hour and a half north of Seattle.
- 0:53[SPEAKER_00]: And then yesterday, visited some friends, I had a rooftop barbecue downtown Seattle, took a little guy, he's flying around.
- 0:59[SPEAKER_00]: Unfortunately, he's touching everything.
- 1:02[SPEAKER_00]: So he thought the drain spout was a blast and kept trying to put his hands in there, which is not conducive to a hygienic
- 1:10[SPEAKER_00]: eating environment, but you know, it's okay.
- 1:13[SPEAKER_00]: He's he's obsessed with cars right now.
- 1:15[SPEAKER_00]: So he really loves sitting and looking down and pointing at every single car that drove by, which in a busy city is many.
- 1:22[SPEAKER_00]: So it's like, yeah, still still a car.
- 1:23[SPEAKER_00]: Good job, buddy.
- 1:24[SPEAKER_00]: But now we're doing okay.
- 1:26[SPEAKER_00]: We're having fun.
- 1:26[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, it's camp week coming up.
- 1:29[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be a lot of fun.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_00]: The Broncos since we talked last on
- 1:33[SPEAKER_00]: Wednesday, immediately the Broncos after signing a Jada Barron and RJ Harvey.
- 1:38[SPEAKER_00]: So I think it was David Kermello comes in the show as a lot of good questions for us.
- 1:43[SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate that with super chats.
- 1:45[SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate that as well.
- 1:47[SPEAKER_00]: I asked like what do you expect from the Broncos?
- 1:49[SPEAKER_00]: What's your biggest priority?
- 1:49[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like.
- 1:51[SPEAKER_00]: The bookies getting in, getting signed and getting them integrated in the system and I expect it soon.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_00]: I think you asked a follow up question about should we worry about them?
- 1:58[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not worried about it.
- 1:59[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to get it done and almost immediately afterwards.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_00]: They signed both those guys.
- 2:02[SPEAKER_00]: So happy to have the rookie class officially locked and loaded.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_00]: Congrats to Argey Harvey, getting some guaranteed money in the third year of his contract, which I think is
- 2:11[SPEAKER_00]: Not typical, uh, something Brock was haven't done.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_00]: It hasn't been the case for a lot of teams.
- 2:14[SPEAKER_00]: So he did get a little bit more guarantees than baseline, but not a fully guaranteed contract.
- 2:19[SPEAKER_00]: So good to have Baron and Harvey locked up.
- 2:21[SPEAKER_00]: Now we shift our focus to obviously training camp, but the onslaught of free agents.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_00]: for the Broncos in twenty twenty six.
- 2:29[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, we talked a lot about them, Zach Allen, Portland Sutton, John Franklin Myers, Malcolm Roach, a lot of big names for the Broncos important pieces that make up a lot of the identity on both sides of the ball specifically and Nick Benito, of course, specifically the defensive front.
- 2:48[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and that's going to be key is a defensive front.
- 2:51[SPEAKER_01]: Hopefully the Broncos do want to keep them around because that will be the lifeblood of this defense.
- 2:55[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you have Patrick Sutan securing the secondary.
- 2:59[SPEAKER_01]: You got a bunch of other pieces in the second area.
- 3:02[SPEAKER_01]: They're great, but you'd love to pair that with a pass rush with a stifling run defense.
- 3:07[SPEAKER_01]: So if they can keep some continuity, much like the offensive line where we've seen continuity, that's just going to make this defense even better over time.
- 3:18[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 3:19[SPEAKER_00]: It should, to end us some extent.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_00]: I think the defense, the vines, a little different because
- 3:24[SPEAKER_00]: It's such a rotational position that you have to constantly feed it.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't think you can sign everybody constantly, retain everybody like what would be great if we could bring back all of Roch, Benito, John Franklin, Myers, Zach Allen.
- 3:37[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, does it make sense to sign them all to a big second and third contracts and continue to get older, more worn down, rather than pouring more resources, letting some young guys, you know, save me on Jones, Hugh Robinson, Jonah Ellis.
- 3:51[SPEAKER_00]: starts to work their way up through the system, especially if they take a starting spot and run with it.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_00]: They're both trenches, obviously, but just how many usable bodies you require across the defensive line, it is
- 4:05[SPEAKER_00]: probably the most like meat grinder turn position in the NFL because there's so many snaps available and you just have to continuously feed the beast.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_00]: That is a defensive line in the past rush.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_00]: So we'll see.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to hurt to lose any of those guys, but it's better than the situation the Broncos have found themselves in where it's been.
- 4:22[SPEAKER_00]: Wow, we don't have anybody worth paying.
- 4:25[SPEAKER_00]: So we better retain these mediocre players.
- 4:27[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to lose some useful pieces here.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully that means compensatory picks for the Broncos down the line, thinking big picture here.
- 4:35[SPEAKER_00]: That's next.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_00]: And I'll be curious to see if we get any contracts at this point.
- 4:38[SPEAKER_00]: It was a year ago.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_00]: We got shorthands contract extension announced an coin miners.
- 4:43[SPEAKER_00]: So could we have one as soon as heck Wednesday?
- 4:47[SPEAKER_00]: Very possible.
- 4:48[SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't be shocked at all if we're talking about somebody a week from now signing a new contract with the Broncos.
- 4:53[SPEAKER_00]: If not multiple players.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.
- 4:56[SPEAKER_01]: Like you mentioned, it is kind of meat grinder.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_01]: You're going to need a lot of bodies there on the defensive line, but that's why you draft a key robin and why you draft a saving on Jones and some people thought, especially Robinson was a weird kind of pig.
- 5:10[SPEAKER_01]: Why do we need another linebacker?
- 5:11[SPEAKER_01]: Well,
- 5:12[SPEAKER_01]: He's still got a Papinina.
- 5:13[SPEAKER_01]: We'll see how he looks this year.
- 5:15[SPEAKER_01]: Jonathan Cooper obviously has been signed already, but does he still play to the level that he's last year?
- 5:20[SPEAKER_01]: And obviously he's got special teams of abilities.
- 5:24[SPEAKER_01]: Well, but save you on Jones.
- 5:25[SPEAKER_01]: You got John Franklin Myers.
- 5:26[SPEAKER_01]: He is still on sign.
- 5:29[SPEAKER_01]: Reop, I should say, and Malcolm roaches well.
- 5:33[SPEAKER_01]: got to keep that position strong, especially the interior defensive line because someone's got to eat into those snaps for Zack Allen.
- 5:41[SPEAKER_01]: He can't be playing a million snaps every year.
- 5:44[SPEAKER_01]: That's just going to break him down and he'll be less effective.
- 5:47[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, outside of quarterback defensive lines, probably the second most important positional group.
- 5:52[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe the offensive line you can go either way, but I
- 5:56[SPEAKER_00]: born and bred college football, I guess, and a lot of times, the team with the most superstars across the defense of one of the ones who are holding hardware at the end of the season.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_00]: So, gotta keep him strong.
- 6:06[SPEAKER_00]: Four deep at edge, five deep on the interior, rotate, rotate, rotate, shirelow coming, and there's no rotation for shirelow.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_00]: He's starting all snaps.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_00]: Good morning, everyone.
- 6:14[SPEAKER_00]: I'd love to see, know, a faint in back as a redemption story, but logically he's not playing special teams.
- 6:19[SPEAKER_00]: We need honor to get snaps here with the potential is there.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_00]: And we're going to talk a little bit about former Denver Broncos first round pick number twenty over all in that twenty nineteen class in no offense we'll get into it here uh... we got uh... kind of saying there's a single in my yard with its wings practically torn off oh kanga uh... they may be called animal control i don't know that seems like a humanitarian uh... the humane thing to do would be the good night uh... mr. seagull some uh... jason bonding good morning broncos country good to see uh...
- 6:52[SPEAKER_00]: If it's wings torn off, I don't know if there's any nursing at back to health, but I'm, you know, country to some extent for that one.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_00]: It's quality of life.
- 6:59[SPEAKER_00]: Chase Wellner, how do you all good to see a Brian Dunn?
- 7:01[SPEAKER_00]: Good morning, Nick Eric, and all of Broncos country.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_00]: Really great to see you.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_00]: I hope you're doing well.
- 7:06[SPEAKER_00]: Brian Dunn's, I would pass on fan, didn't know about the special teams.
- 7:09[SPEAKER_00]: We don't need another third string tight end.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_00]: We'll get into it here in just a second.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_00]: First, we got to say hello to Ralph.
- 7:14[SPEAKER_00]: It says, good morning, guys.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_00]: I hardly ever make a live show anymore.
- 7:17[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it's great to have you, Ralph.
- 7:18[SPEAKER_00]: Love the big, sixty-nine jersey.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if that's a joke.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_00]: Jersey or if that's a McGlinchie, but either way, I am here for it.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_00]: So they've been busy lately and was curious if anything interesting happened in rookie camp.
- 7:30[SPEAKER_00]: Hadn't heard too much of it, then you get Baron and Harvey signing in and also again, they be the base sign from where we're sitting is like no injuries.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_00]: No arrests.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_00]: If you can come out of camp or the offseason leading up to the year with none of that going on, then flat success.
- 7:46[SPEAKER_00]: All the other stuff, you know, cure Robinson's killing the backup undrafted probably never going to make the team, uh, offensive tackles every snap.
- 7:53[SPEAKER_00]: Well, okay.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_00]: What does it look like when he's playing starting caliber guys.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_00]: It's nice.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_00]: It's better.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_00]: He's doing that than he's not.
- 7:59[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not putting too much weight on it other than
- 8:03[SPEAKER_00]: I'd like it rather than not have it, but right now, no injuries and guys signed and it's a good thing.
- 8:09[SPEAKER_00]: Trust the process, trust the system.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like we're all pulling in the same direction in Broncos facilities for I feel like that for sure for the first time.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_00]: in a long time.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_00]: I felt a little bit like that last season, but it's like with a brick and quarter back stuff and like moving out for us, Wilson and the dead cap it.
- 8:29[SPEAKER_00]: Not a lot of investments on the defense.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, ah, are we really all pulling the same direction?
- 8:33[SPEAKER_00]: Is it we're getting some momentum underneath there?
- 8:36[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely feel like that this season.
- 8:37[SPEAKER_00]: I'm as, I mean, I've said it on the show Dylan.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_00]: I'm as optimistic about the direction of this Broncos team on the whole as I was.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_00]: entering the twenty-fourteen season.
- 8:47[SPEAKER_00]: Because if you remember the end of twenty-fourteen went out with the whimper, people leaving, what's the offense going to look like, Peyton Manning?
- 8:54[SPEAKER_00]: Are they going to marry the concept of the under-center, his own stuff with Kubiak, with the shotgun stuff with Peyton Manning?
- 8:59[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to see pistol.
- 9:01[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously didn't work out very well for the offense.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_00]: Well enough with the great defense, but I feel super optimistic about just do the overall piece as the direction.
- 9:09[SPEAKER_00]: We don't just have an adult in the room.
- 9:10[SPEAKER_00]: We have somebody who knows what the heck they're doing, and they are empowered to make the right decisions.
- 9:16[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely, and you just look at the the holy Trinity of GM head coaching quarterback and things are looking up obviously.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_01]: Let's make it up.
- 9:24[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see in the fourth one.
- 9:26[SPEAKER_01]: Cortette, maybe.
- 9:32[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you still have a small sample side of bone X, but the signs are encouraging.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_01]: There's still some room to grow, and especially with some new weapons in this offense, whether it be through free agency with Evan Ingraham.
- 9:44[SPEAKER_01]: or the draft RJ Harvey and Pav Ryan.
- 9:46[SPEAKER_01]: So things are looking up there.
- 9:50[SPEAKER_01]: But it, like you mentioned, pretty great to not hear anything out of training camp because as we know, Sean Payton kind of likes to keep things under wraps.
- 9:57[SPEAKER_01]: So if you do hear something, it would be an injury or an arrest.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_01]: So thankfully none of that's happening in this team in the culture is being cultivated and you love to see that especially heading into year three with Sean Payton.
- 10:11[SPEAKER_00]: And just as content creators, I'd be great if we're getting a little bit of clips here or there, a little bit of information.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_00]: But I'll tell you what, I would much rather have the tight lips, nothing getting in, nothing getting out, paired with good football and teams that are competent in many ways versus the open access jokes around and live streaming essentially that we had with the Tango Hackett paired with just an unbearably inept product on the field.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_00]: I'll take it.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_00]: That's the trade, then I will definitely take it.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_00]: Gatorade gaming, morning Nick and Dylan, what's good Broncos country, we're good, we're hanging out, it's almost already the end of July.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_00]: We're doing okay, we're kicking we're alive, good to see Brian Dunzen here, great to have you here Peter Middleton, where are you out of?
- 10:59[SPEAKER_00]: Are you in Turkey right now, Peter, what's going on?
- 11:01[SPEAKER_00]: Always appreciate you coming in.
- 11:02[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it's a stink jersey.
- 11:03[SPEAKER_00]: I think you talked about this before.
- 11:04[SPEAKER_00]: That is even better.
- 11:06[SPEAKER_00]: I appreciate that.
- 11:07[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully you don't have some of the,
- 11:10[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully it's not too authentic if you catch my drift on the the Stink Jersey there because that would be a a problem.
- 11:17[SPEAKER_00]: Um, Michael Rankio with the stars great to see.
- 11:20[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much Michael.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_00]: I truly really do thank you so much.
- 11:23[SPEAKER_00]: He says good morning.
- 11:23[SPEAKER_00]: Making Dylan and Broncos for breakfast.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_00]: Go Bob Broncos.
- 11:27[SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate Jen Chase.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_00]: This is not bullish on Noah Fant.
- 11:30[SPEAKER_00]: Tighten room behind Ingram is rather poor.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_00]: I can see the argument.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_00]: So top of the show today Noah Fant is released leading up to training camp, which is kind of interesting.
- 11:41[SPEAKER_00]: From the Seattle Seahawks he signed a pretty good contract two three seasons ago.
- 11:45[SPEAKER_00]: He's typically been around the top
- 11:47[SPEAKER_00]: twelve in statistical output four tight ends.
- 11:51[SPEAKER_00]: That might be as we talk a lot about tight end on here that might be more of an indictment on just overall passing yardage output or receiving yardage output from the tight end position as opposed to, you know, not a fan being great.
- 12:04[SPEAKER_00]: Kind of feels like again, I've talked about on here a lot.
- 12:07[SPEAKER_00]: The linebacker position where it's like there's like
- 12:10[SPEAKER_00]: three to eight good ones.
- 12:11[SPEAKER_00]: And then after that, it's like generic like war zero kind of player.
- 12:16[SPEAKER_00]: That's just how it is with tight end.
- 12:18[SPEAKER_00]: That's how it is with linebacker as well.
- 12:21[SPEAKER_00]: And he was released.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_00]: They drafted AJ Barner two years ago from Michigan.
- 12:26[SPEAKER_00]: He was their second tight end to Colston, Loveland out there who was obviously a top
- 12:32[SPEAKER_00]: ten pick this season.
- 12:35[SPEAKER_00]: And then you had a top ten pick and then you had them draft Elijah Royo who a lot of people compared to Noah fans coming out of the draft out of the university of Miami.
- 12:42[SPEAKER_00]: He's had a lot of health issues.
- 12:43[SPEAKER_00]: So Noah fans gone.
- 12:44[SPEAKER_00]: They cleared a little bit off the books and Royo must be looking good out here in my neck of the woods with Seattle.
- 12:49[SPEAKER_00]: So fans a free agent.
- 12:52[SPEAKER_00]: still a useful player.
- 12:53[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, definitely erratic hit or miss kind of player, but an athletic profile and somebody to wherever he goes, he's going to, I think he's going to be a useful tight end to for them.
- 13:04[SPEAKER_00]: I would imagine.
- 13:07[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 13:07[SPEAKER_01]: And listen, you look at this tight end room for the Broncos outside of Evan Ingraham, not very inspiring.
- 13:14[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, out of trauma is, uh, mid, what we'll call it mid.
- 13:19[SPEAKER_01]: And after that,
- 13:21[SPEAKER_01]: You got guys, like Nate Adkins, whatever, kind of fine, not early.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_01]: I popping Lucas Crowley, OTA's darling that everyone was up in arms about last year, but, and then Caleb Loner was mentioned earlier, I believe by Shylo and while I'm very intrigued by what he could bring potentially a couple of years down the line.
- 13:46[SPEAKER_01]: Right now, I don't think you're necessarily stealing snaps from him.
- 13:50[SPEAKER_01]: So adding in a guy like Noah Faelic, you mentioned athletic, obviously not an amazing blocker similar to Aaron, but another weapon in this tight end room.
- 13:59[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think you can really pass on him necessarily, just because anything's an upgrade at this point for the tight end room and any other weapons that the Broncos think would help Bonix in his development, making that jump in year two.
- 14:14[SPEAKER_01]: I'm certainly not opposed to bringing Faelic back for reunion.
- 14:19[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_00]: No, he's one of the top twenty tight ends in football, but you're by your breakdown.
- 14:27[SPEAKER_00]: Typically gets around fifty receptions.
- 14:30[SPEAKER_00]: Had his best statistical seasons with Denver on twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, one, three touchdowns, four touchdowns, six hundred and seventy yards, sixty receptions.
- 14:42[SPEAKER_00]: So again, he's somebody that he can be a useful piece for the Broncos and on paper.
- 14:49[SPEAKER_00]: If you could bring him in, I think it wouldn't be something that I wouldn't be against necessarily.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_00]: I think it helps further detach Evan Ingraham from the line of scrimmage, sounded like in OTAs.
- 14:59[SPEAKER_00]: He was playing as much, if not more, slot usage as it was compared to inline.
- 15:05[SPEAKER_00]: So not having to have him be somebody who is your F-Tide End or having to play twelve personnel with him attached all the time, just giving him a little bit more movement.
- 15:16[SPEAKER_00]: The real question for me on this is, what does the contract look like to bring him in?
- 15:21[SPEAKER_00]: Because right now you have a bunch of guys that like, what I rather bring in no a fant, or line up and sign Nick Biedo Zach Allen, John Flank and Myers, uh, court on sign to a new contract.
- 15:33[SPEAKER_00]: No event would be nice.
- 15:34[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, if you guys watch back two, three weeks ago, and Eric and I graded the rooms, I think Eric gave the Titan room a D minus.
- 15:42[SPEAKER_00]: I gave them a D D plus and it was the worst room on the offense, because we're not really excited about a lot of the pieces.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_00]: Excited about an ingram.
- 15:49[SPEAKER_00]: But again, as he tied in, as he wide receiver, where does he actually fall in this?
- 15:54[SPEAKER_00]: I just think he'll probably cost more on the open market than Denver should be willing to pay because he is still just twenty seven years old and there's not a lot of even serviceable by the other serviceable tight ends but he's young still potential still athletic all of that tight ends can take a little bit so.
- 16:12[SPEAKER_00]: I guess what I'm most shocked about is they didn't find a way to trade him even for a late pick.
- 16:19[SPEAKER_00]: Like it was a twenty twenty seven six get to get the contracts off the books.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a little bit something smells funny with that.
- 16:26[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that is quite interesting, especially Seattle's been known to move around and get picks for players like this, but like you mentioned,
- 16:35[SPEAKER_01]: The price is what it's going to come down to because you do have a handful of players at least five or six that you're looking to resign.
- 16:41[SPEAKER_01]: So if you can bring them on the cheap that's great.
- 16:43[SPEAKER_01]: If not, hey, we'll stick with what we got at Titan.
- 16:46[SPEAKER_01]: See what we can squeeze out of that dish rag as it were within the level of talent behind ever in anger.
- 16:54[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 16:56[SPEAKER_00]: So again, I'm not necessarily against it.
- 16:58[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that there should be any real bad.
- 17:02[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I don't know if ant personally, we all both at Iowa at the same time.
- 17:05[SPEAKER_00]: I love watching him in Hawkinson on those Iowa teams together.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_00]: That was pretty awesome.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't think necessarily there should be bad blood.
- 17:14[SPEAKER_00]: It's a new coaching regime here, completely new offensive staff.
- 17:17[SPEAKER_00]: You did have George Peyton, be the one who traded him a way, but
- 17:22[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that whoever's offering him the money makes sense.
- 17:25[SPEAKER_00]: The one kicker I have here is that from where we sit, definitely from where Eric sits, we're not very in on Adam Troutman as a piece.
- 17:34[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't think there is anybody higher on Adam Troutman than
- 17:39[SPEAKER_00]: This coaching staff and Sean Payton.
- 17:41[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they, they love Adam trauma.
- 17:44[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's the other reason that I mean, I would be interested, you know, again, still really young athletic.
- 17:48[SPEAKER_00]: What is the contract look like?
- 17:50[SPEAKER_00]: I think he would be an upgrade over a trauma and it definitely as far as like making things.
- 17:54[SPEAKER_00]: Let's say he's just, you know, a block and detach kind of tight end on someplace.
- 17:59[SPEAKER_00]: infinite more potential to do stuff after the catch than Adam Troutman with the ball in space.
- 18:05[SPEAKER_00]: Granted, you wish faint played a little bigger sometimes in space, a little bit more nuanced versus I always called in the the old school controller where A is sprint and then office.
- 18:16[SPEAKER_00]: That's that's all he does.
- 18:16[SPEAKER_00]: There's no wiggle.
- 18:17[SPEAKER_00]: It's just downhill throttle.
- 18:19[SPEAKER_00]: It's a faster not.
- 18:21[SPEAKER_00]: But I think you'd offer a lot more as a pass catcher after the catch than Adam Troutman.
- 18:27[SPEAKER_00]: But Sean Payton loves that.
- 18:28[SPEAKER_00]: I'm traveling.
- 18:28[SPEAKER_00]: This offensive staff loves out.
- 18:30[SPEAKER_00]: I'm traveling.
- 18:31[SPEAKER_00]: Bring in a no a faint to displace.
- 18:32[SPEAKER_00]: Charotman.
- 18:33[SPEAKER_00]: I'd be fine with it.
- 18:34[SPEAKER_00]: Trotman's just whatever to me, but they like him in house and there must be something to that because again, trust the offensive staff, trust the coaching staff and they love traveling.
- 18:44[SPEAKER_00]: So it's not going to.
- 18:46[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think it's going to happen.
- 18:47[SPEAKER_00]: I'd be pretty shocked.
- 18:48[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like you mentioned, there's a lot of love for trauma and from Sean Peyton and he's got loyalty to his guys, maybe to a fault in this case, but like you mentioned, there's not really much else that the Broncos have.
- 19:02[SPEAKER_01]: You know, they're just going to be loyal to the guys that they have now.
- 19:04[SPEAKER_01]: Hopefully, we can see some more development.
- 19:08[SPEAKER_01]: From some of these guys, although I'm not really too inspired by the room, like I mentioned, Lucas Crowle, don't really care for Adam Trimman, whatever any icons, at least has some somewhat HPEC type ability, but.
- 19:23[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, and then there's a loaner.
- 19:24[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, I'm very intrigued by that, but that's like a couple of years down the line, the proposition, unless he miraculously takes some big steps.
- 19:32[SPEAKER_01]: I've heard some good things.
- 19:33[SPEAKER_01]: I remember back when they had, uh, uh, uh, it was a rookie OTAs or whatever.
- 19:38[SPEAKER_01]: And at least mentally, he was seeming to grasp things, but, you know, getting on the field and putting that onto the field is a totally different beast.
- 19:47[SPEAKER_01]: So going to have to wait on that.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no, we got Samantha and coming in here, love to shout out to our mouth, how to ladies.
- 19:54[SPEAKER_00]: Hope you're doing well.
- 19:55[SPEAKER_00]: Samantha will be at a good weekend and we appreciate the comment says does Ingram even line up as a true tight end.
- 20:00[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to play a little bit of slot.
- 20:02[SPEAKER_00]: I think they might even isolate him sometimes as an X. You're going to see him as an H back probably sometimes.
- 20:09[SPEAKER_00]: I'm really curious to see if you almost ever see him line up as your stand alone tight end as the why if you will an eleven personnel what is that even look like at that point you might as well just go ten with no two tight end on the field and detached I guess but they're going to move him around.
- 20:28[SPEAKER_00]: I'm really curious to see what his usage looks like.
- 20:30[SPEAKER_00]: That's one of my number one questions entering the season is just what the alignment looks like and how does the personnel shake out with Ingram.
- 20:37[SPEAKER_00]: We know that Sean Peyton loves, loves to rotate his offensive skill position.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_00]: So there's going to be snaps to be to be had.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think there's going to be just a primary, like when the Broncos had, you know, Walker, Julius Thomas.
- 20:50[SPEAKER_00]: Sanders and D.T.
- 20:53[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, well, I'm a person all day.
- 20:55[SPEAKER_00]: Like we, we know what we're doing here.
- 20:57[SPEAKER_00]: No Sean Marine or whatever.
- 20:58[SPEAKER_00]: That's, I'm expecting to see a lot more rotation with those guys, especially because you don't have known starters at a lot of those spots other than Coral and Sutton, but yeah, right now, is it going to be more slot?
- 21:10[SPEAKER_00]: Is it going to be more F?
- 21:11[SPEAKER_00]: It's, it will be curious to see how Sean Peyton utilizes him line up wise, but as a true tight end,
- 21:18[SPEAKER_00]: Inside outside, I think it's going to be probably fifty fifty split.
- 21:22[SPEAKER_00]: Troy coming in here says just supporting.
- 21:24[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much.
- 21:25[SPEAKER_00]: We're just we're just reading.
- 21:26[SPEAKER_00]: This is glad the potstrain ranking dead period is over looking forward to Camp News have a great show.
- 21:32[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, Troy, I think that maybe this is just me.
- 21:36[SPEAKER_00]: believe in the best in some people here.
- 21:38[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think it is pot stirring.
- 21:39[SPEAKER_00]: I just think it's the natural reaction from fan bases.
- 21:44[SPEAKER_00]: When you have the NFL at large, a lot of people and they're not always going to be right.
- 21:47[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they're going to be imperfect.
- 21:50[SPEAKER_00]: If you took like an average across all the things, you'd probably get the best accurate list.
- 21:54[SPEAKER_00]: But every team is going to have every team's fan base is going to have people on both extremes of it.
- 22:01[SPEAKER_00]: You know,
- 22:03[SPEAKER_00]: They have most of the time, but it'll probably be their ranking in way too low, but everyone's only have the pure haters in the fan base.
- 22:09[SPEAKER_00]: We were like, oh, that's way too high.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_00]: What are they talking about?
- 22:11[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't think it's personally a pot stirring or a pot stirring necessarily, but it's just the natural reaction when we get into these silo groups talking about these things.
- 22:23[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely, and you think about just what is that dead period that true dead period of the offseason year.
- 22:30[SPEAKER_01]: You're going to hyper focus on whatever's put out there.
- 22:32[SPEAKER_01]: And obviously, you know, PFF has had to quite a few rankings that we've all disagreed with.
- 22:39[SPEAKER_01]: But at the end of the day, I think we know Patrick Chutan, best corner in the league, call me bias.
- 22:45[SPEAKER_01]: I am who cares.
- 22:47[SPEAKER_01]: We're Broncos fans at the end of the day.
- 22:49[SPEAKER_01]: But
- 22:50[SPEAKER_01]: It's all going to come out of the lodge.
- 22:51[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to see what happens on the field.
- 22:53[SPEAKER_01]: And that's really what's going to be the true determining factor.
- 22:57[SPEAKER_01]: And we know these guys are good, right?
- 22:59[SPEAKER_01]: And at times we do overvalue them.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_01]: I know.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_01]: And maybe I'll catch a little trace for this.
- 23:05[SPEAKER_01]: But there's
- 23:07[SPEAKER_01]: I can't remember who put out the poll, but it was Bonyx in the quarterbacks that fans believe that he's better than it was, and they were saying he's better than Dak Prescott right now.
- 23:17[SPEAKER_01]: He's better than this, and that, and it's like, that's a little bit projecting, right?
- 23:20[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, that's more thing about where you think he could be, rather than where he is at.
- 23:26[SPEAKER_01]: So, fandom does play a big part in these rankings, and some justifiably so, but gotta remember to temper our expectations here a little bit, because
- 23:36[SPEAKER_01]: We're we're fans and at the end of the day that it's an attic.
- 23:39[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to be a little crazy about the players that we love.
- 23:42[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Peter asked what contract would you expect for fans?
- 23:46[SPEAKER_00]: I'd expect him to get somewhere.
- 23:48[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he might take a one.
- 23:49[SPEAKER_00]: He's still only twenty seven right and tight ends and played a thirty five and he's got athletic potential hasn't been marked with injuries.
- 23:55[SPEAKER_00]: So.
- 23:56[SPEAKER_00]: I think you maybe see a one year contract, but I'm thinking probably it's more five million, six million, and then he looks to up later on.
- 24:05[SPEAKER_00]: But what do you think?
- 24:07[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to look up just the average tight end rank.
- 24:08[SPEAKER_00]: He should get paid somewhere like twenty, twenty-fifth, but maybe he wants just a one year contract to give him some options.
- 24:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I could see when your contract like you mentioned, he's still very young.
- 24:19[SPEAKER_01]: So hey, maybe a approved deal, whether it's in Denver or somewhere else in terms of range anywhere between maybe three to eight million depending on what teams willing to pay him.
- 24:33[SPEAKER_01]: Because obviously, they weren't willing to trade for him unless Seattle didn't explore those options, which I highly doubt.
- 24:40[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I guess somewhere in that range would be, would make sense.
- 24:46[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you get like Colby Parkinson's making seven point five million.
- 24:49[SPEAKER_00]: That's probably a little bit on the high end.
- 24:51[SPEAKER_00]: Zachard's six point two five, but he's thirty five years old.
- 24:54[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's almost a decade older than Fant.
- 24:57[SPEAKER_00]: You get Tommy Trimble coming at five point two five million.
- 25:00[SPEAKER_00]: I'm guessing it's probably somewhere about four point five to six.
- 25:04[SPEAKER_00]: One year contract would be my assumption right now.
- 25:07[SPEAKER_00]: And that's not a lot compared to the cap, but that could be the difference for a contract for the guys that the Broncos have in house that they need to resign.
- 25:14[SPEAKER_00]: So I think that's probably where I'd rather allocate the money right now.
- 25:20[SPEAKER_00]: We just have too many guys that would be nice to have long-term stability and retention from versus fan.
- 25:27[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I'll knock on wood here.
- 25:29[SPEAKER_00]: This isn't wood, but this is.
- 25:30[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm not gonna wood here.
- 25:31[SPEAKER_00]: That's why I always do that part.
- 25:33[SPEAKER_00]: Plastic folding table here.
- 25:34[SPEAKER_00]: Be good for some flippy cup or something.
- 25:36[SPEAKER_00]: A little too short for beer pong, I think.
- 25:38[SPEAKER_00]: But no, I probably unless there's an injury.
- 25:43[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, no.
- 25:43[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to get.
- 25:45[SPEAKER_00]: Then maybe that changes the perspective.
- 25:47[SPEAKER_00]: But right now, even the tight end rooms week, it's more set up for a long-term investment in the position as opposed to no affant floor raising kind of guy.
- 25:57[SPEAKER_00]: But again, twenty seven.
- 25:59[SPEAKER_00]: athletic maybe it would work out for him.
- 26:02[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not cheering against him.
- 26:03[SPEAKER_00]: He got boss man Jay with two super chats here.
- 26:06[SPEAKER_00]: One dollar, but then he hits us up with the question here as well.
- 26:09[SPEAKER_00]: And he says everyone, please tune in Wednesday night at six p.m.
- 26:12[SPEAKER_00]: for the new Broncos on chain.
- 26:13[SPEAKER_00]: Well, thank you so much.
- 26:14[SPEAKER_00]: Boss man, Jay for the super chat.
- 26:15[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, support everyone.
- 26:17[SPEAKER_00]: We appreciate you.
- 26:18[SPEAKER_00]: Hope you're doing well.
- 26:19[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, Wednesday night six p.m.
- 26:21[SPEAKER_00]: You're giving central to them.
- 26:22[SPEAKER_00]: And this is Broncos podcast.
- 26:23[SPEAKER_00]: You got to say five p.m.
- 26:26[SPEAKER_00]: mountain time.
- 26:27[SPEAKER_00]: I'm out here Pacific.
- 26:28[SPEAKER_00]: So we got to make sure we do translate it.
- 26:30[SPEAKER_00]: And it also spans not the greatest blocker, but much more explosive than Chapman and Atkins.
- 26:35[SPEAKER_00]: Somebody made a point earlier in here.
- 26:37[SPEAKER_00]: It was a good one about the special teams ability of Atkins providing value.
- 26:42[SPEAKER_00]: And I think Chapman's a little bit our blocker than fan, but again, younger.
- 26:47[SPEAKER_00]: more athletic, more perceived upside, not always necessarily, but I just, because troutman's such a Sean Peyton guy, I don't imagine them making a move to this place.
- 26:58[SPEAKER_00]: Let's say they lose out an avenue grim.
- 26:59[SPEAKER_00]: They don't end up taking one of the top three tight ends in the draft, and we're sitting here with their, you know what's in our, you know what, at the tight end position this year.
- 27:07[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, oh my god, troutman and Akins and Crowl, then there'd be a little bit more urgency, but you have some options right now, no doubt.
- 27:17[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and it's always good to have those options.
- 27:19[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, like you mentioned earlier, there could be an injury knock on wood, but you don't, you don't help for that.
- 27:25[SPEAKER_01]: But it could just be insurance as well.
- 27:28[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe you just bring him in and see what he can do and training him unless he does find it at more money or more opportunity on another team.
- 27:37[SPEAKER_01]: But it's always good to have those options.
- 27:39[SPEAKER_01]: So something to keep in the back of your mind for sure, and especially with how the tight end room is.
- 27:46[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 27:47[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 27:48[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
- 27:49[SPEAKER_00]: We got Ernie Mays coming and Ernie's got a new profile picture.
- 27:52[SPEAKER_00]: Looking good, earned dog.
- 27:53[SPEAKER_00]: Hope you're doing well, says Go Broncos Country only.
- 27:57[SPEAKER_00]: Great to see you.
- 27:58[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he said, there we go.
- 27:59[SPEAKER_00]: Correcting the time there.
- 28:00[SPEAKER_00]: Marco Rankio coming in here saying Nick Benito did mention during football camp that he said the Broncos in a himave had talks about new contracts.
- 28:07[SPEAKER_00]: He'll probably save this for Wednesday to some extent because just kind of what we've heard anything going on there, but
- 28:15[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the Broncos are in a really interesting position, specifically across the defensive line in the address room.
- 28:21[SPEAKER_00]: You're set to lose three of your top four into your defensive linemen after the season.
- 28:28[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, Roach is down the list, but he's a useful player.
- 28:30[SPEAKER_00]: And we talk about people loving him.
- 28:32[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Roach might be one of the more beloved players in that Broncos locker room.
- 28:36[SPEAKER_00]: They adore that guy.
- 28:38[SPEAKER_00]: So I got a lot of the big man with personality.
- 28:40[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, man, DJ Jones, both beloved players out there, but then to the edge room.
- 28:46[SPEAKER_00]: Nick Manito is your best edge.
- 28:48[SPEAKER_00]: He's not the best edge setter, but man, what he does?
- 28:50[SPEAKER_00]: He's closer, fireball, ninety nine hundred plus come out of the pen and can close games when you got the ability to get our end drives with the ability to add in that.
- 28:59[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's the most valuable skill you can have on the outside of turnovers.
- 29:03[SPEAKER_00]: The most valuable skill you can have on the defensive side of the ball.
- 29:05[SPEAKER_00]: So he's going to get paid.
- 29:07[SPEAKER_00]: But the Broncos on paper right now are just so deep with options and potential at the edge restroom.
- 29:14[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, five deep for sure right now.
- 29:19[SPEAKER_00]: What does that mean for the position long term?
- 29:22[SPEAKER_00]: If we had Cooper and Benito lining up at the same time, I think it's probably an easier conversation of letting Cooper walk, even though he's another really good locker room, glue guy.
- 29:30[SPEAKER_00]: But you paid him, he's here, and then you have three cheap guys behind them.
- 29:35[SPEAKER_00]: So it might end up being an interesting conversation down the line, especially if you do wind up paying Benito.
- 29:42[SPEAKER_00]: Could you potentially float Cooper out there for somebody?
- 29:46[SPEAKER_00]: This is assuming all your young guys hit them right now.
- 29:49[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm excited about them.
- 29:50[SPEAKER_00]: Robinson, Ellis Tillman.
- 29:51[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's that's an quality depth.
- 29:53[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, nobody hounds on defensive depth more than we do on this show.
- 29:58[SPEAKER_00]: Defense of line depth.
- 30:00[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely, and you need that depth, especially on the defensive line and edgerusher, like you mentioned, I mean, Jonathan Cooper, Nick Benino, solid starters, like them a lot.
- 30:09[SPEAKER_01]: And he brought up turnovers, I mean, Nick Benino besides getting sacks.
- 30:13[SPEAKER_01]: He got a couple of picks, sixes this year, and obviously you're not expecting that all the time, but that's a nice little added bonus in there, especially with his decent coverage ability and speed.
- 30:25[SPEAKER_01]: You did mention.
- 30:26[SPEAKER_01]: You got Jonah Ellis.
- 30:27[SPEAKER_01]: You got Key Robinson waiting in the wings.
- 30:29[SPEAKER_01]: You got DeAndre Tillman who was a surprise last year.
- 30:33[SPEAKER_01]: So that rotation is strong.
- 30:35[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see who can take a step up and maybe like you said, maybe you float out Cooper there.
- 30:42[SPEAKER_01]: If someone is playing up to the level and you get save a little money there.
- 30:45[SPEAKER_01]: Save a little coin and possibly get some draft fix out of it.
- 30:47[SPEAKER_01]: But we don't want to worry about that right now.
- 30:50[SPEAKER_01]: We'll just we'll just hope that Cooper plays very well.
- 30:53[SPEAKER_01]: And the guys behind him develop as well.
- 30:56[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no doubt.
- 30:58[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll save it a little bit here as well.
- 31:00[SPEAKER_00]: But first, we're going to get to Ralph's saying, hope that the rookie Titan makes a splash this year.
- 31:04[SPEAKER_00]: It would be great if you got anything from Caleb Loner this season, but he was much more, I think, a stash and develop candidate and
- 31:13[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's probably, I mean, just late seventh round pick with the profile that he has, he's more likely to be somebody who's like, we look back five years from now on as he's a trivia question that never did anything.
- 31:26[SPEAKER_00]: First is somebody who's making an impact, especially his rookie season.
- 31:29[SPEAKER_00]: So, stash and hopefully you get something, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, maybe there's a small package there, but does he do enough where he's worth the active roster spot, even.
- 31:42[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
- 31:42[SPEAKER_00]: A lock and change, right?
- 31:44[SPEAKER_00]: And that I don't want to bet against the guy and the Broncos saw enough to try to get him and not, you know, risk him being an undrafted for you.
- 31:50[SPEAKER_00]: And so there's, you trust the staff and everything, but just statistically late, seventh round pick, you never know.
- 31:58[SPEAKER_00]: long shot to some extent, but it'd be great if you made a splash this year.
- 32:02[SPEAKER_00]: Let's say he even comes out of camp and he makes enough splash plays that it's like we can't subject him to waivers in the practice squad.
- 32:08[SPEAKER_00]: Some tougher decisions than, but that's a huge first step that we got to get to first.
- 32:14[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 32:15[SPEAKER_01]: And like you mentioned, it's going to be a couple of years.
- 32:18[SPEAKER_01]: And that's that's fine.
- 32:18[SPEAKER_01]: That's what those late late round picks are for and I know people were up in arms.
- 32:23[SPEAKER_01]: Why would we take a basketball player primarily that hasn't seen much action as a football player?
- 32:29[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Sean Payton sees something.
- 32:31[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, maybe I could mold this guy.
- 32:32[SPEAKER_01]: That's that's a true dart throw.
- 32:35[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 32:35[SPEAKER_01]: That's that's what those late picks are for.
- 32:37[SPEAKER_01]: And if he can develop that's great.
- 32:39[SPEAKER_01]: If not, it's it's a seventh run pick.
- 32:41[SPEAKER_01]: It was your last pick in the draft.
- 32:43[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going to lose sleep over it.
- 32:45[SPEAKER_01]: But the potential there is intriguing for sure, especially in a room like we've talked all pod that could use enough great.
- 32:54[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 32:55[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no doubt.
- 32:56[SPEAKER_00]: No doubt on that one at all.
- 32:57[SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to wrap it on up here.
- 32:59[SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate everyone hanging out with us today talking a little Broncos football on Monday morning talking about Noah fan.
- 33:06[SPEAKER_00]: We'll get into the contracts a little bit more later this week as well.
- 33:10[SPEAKER_00]: And camp start in here.
- 33:11[SPEAKER_00]: So Dylan, any final thoughts as we wrap it on up here and get on out of here and start our Monday morning.
- 33:17[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, Noah fan on paper if the contract was cheap.
- 33:20[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't think he hurts to bring in, raises the floor of the room a lot, in my opinion, if you can move on from Lucas Crowle, give a little bit of competition from Adam Trautman, maybe even further, detach, deploy, Evan Ingraham, I think it does help the room, but maybe not enough compared to what I would imagine the market will be for him and potentially limiting yourself in terms of contract negotiations with more important guys that you need to retain.
- 33:51[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, if the prices right, then so be it.
- 33:54[SPEAKER_01]: Let's bring him in.
- 33:54[SPEAKER_01]: Let's add some talent to this room.
- 33:56[SPEAKER_01]: We need more dynamic explosive plays.
- 33:59[SPEAKER_01]: And I think fan could bring that.
- 34:02[SPEAKER_01]: But you mentioned, you want to keep your own guys happy.
- 34:05[SPEAKER_01]: You want to pay the guys who have earned it and who have been here and keep that continuity that is so important.
- 34:11[SPEAKER_01]: So the prices right go for it.
- 34:13[SPEAKER_01]: But above all, I'm just ready for some rockers with all man.
- 34:17[SPEAKER_01]: We're right there.
- 34:18[SPEAKER_01]: We're getting real close now.
- 34:21[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, right around the corner again, didn't anybody hear anything from rookie camp?
- 34:25[SPEAKER_00]: Got your guys signed, no injuries, no arrests.
- 34:28[SPEAKER_00]: Let's continue that trend because I don't know exactly how much we're going to be getting exactly from the Broncos training camp here though.
- 34:35[SPEAKER_00]: We'll get some and we'll share it.
- 34:36[SPEAKER_00]: But once training camp in the combined practices, that's where we start to get a little bit more valuable information.
- 34:43[SPEAKER_00]: What we can get from camp though,
- 34:45[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully a depth chart, hopefully some rotations and what the pecking order seems to be early on for some of these spots.
- 34:53[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm happy to have it be a boring camp without the quarterback questions, without the Sean Peyton questions, without any, you know, Russell Wilson versus head coach, stuff competent, boring, consistent, leading the right direction, good football fan to the day, whatever formula leads to that, give me that.
- 35:15[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 35:15[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, the best part is, yeah, you're not worried about quarterback.
- 35:19[SPEAKER_01]: You know, thing you worried about is it was going to be a wider receiver too.
- 35:23[SPEAKER_01]: Who's is Riley mosque going to come back and be good.
- 35:25[SPEAKER_01]: There's there's plenty of things to look through in training camp, but nothing as dire as oh gosh, is our new head coach is he going to hit is our quarter young quarterback is he going to be any good.
- 35:34[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, a little little more boring.
- 35:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like you mentioned off season, but you know, consistency can be a little boring.
- 35:44[SPEAKER_00]: I will take boring as long as it's a competent product at the end of the day.
- 35:48[SPEAKER_00]: So, a lot of fun, good show.
