Speaker 1: Bill Schmid of Packers OT and the Huddle on Fox
1:15
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Wisconsin, alongside the voice of the Green Bay Packers,
1:18
Speaker 1: Wayne lair Vie Wayne U. Practice and training camp none
1:23
Speaker 1: bigger for the play by play broadcasters of a ninety
1:25
Speaker 1: man roster and preseason game number one. We saw a
1:29
Speaker 1: lot of good things. We'll see a lot here today,
1:31
Speaker 1: but getting to see the Packers starters. We mentioned it
1:34
Speaker 1: a lot last week while we were here for a
1:36
Speaker 1: couple of shows before the team went out to Pittsburgh
1:38
Speaker 1: the go and take on the Broncos coming up on Friday. Today,
1:41
Speaker 1: a very long practice should be a real grinder. The
1:45
Speaker 1: term dog days was built for right now in the
1:48
Speaker 1: midst of August in camp.
1:49
Speaker 3: Really it was.
1:50
Speaker 2: And again they'll as you mentioned, they're in pads today.
1:54
Speaker 2: They'll probably go a good couple of hours and then
1:56
Speaker 2: they'll start tapering down. Lighter practice tomorrow and not open
1:59
Speaker 2: to the public, and then we get on the plane
2:02
Speaker 2: and go to Denver on Thursday. Game is Friday night,
2:05
Speaker 2: and then you get in that final week of practice
2:07
Speaker 2: and that's the joint practice they're looking forward to against
2:10
Speaker 2: Arizona when the Cardinals come to town.
2:12
Speaker 1: And should be a ton of fun when that transpires
2:14
Speaker 1: a week from tomorrow. And when you're looking at in camp,
2:19
Speaker 1: getting people healthy, getting as many looks as possible, Packers
2:22
Speaker 1: are getting a little bit healthier here today. Josh Jacobs
2:25
Speaker 1: on the field, might be going through some of the
2:27
Speaker 1: team drills. They lost Lucas Vanus for a couple of
2:30
Speaker 1: practices with a little bit of a shoulder. Ding should
2:34
Speaker 1: be ready and able to go. And we're getting some
2:37
Speaker 1: one on one pass rush drill off to the far side.
2:40
Speaker 1: But generally speaking, Carrington Valentine back at practice, they're slowly
2:45
Speaker 1: seemingly getting a little bit healthier as we get into camp.
2:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's good to see, Billy.
2:49
Speaker 2: You know, injuries can linger at camp and sometimes they
2:52
Speaker 2: can come pound, but the Packers appear to be getting
2:56
Speaker 2: healthier and that certainly is going to help in getting
2:58
Speaker 2: this team ready for the opener.
3:00
Speaker 1: And we saw just the offense for a very limited
3:03
Speaker 1: amount on Thursday night, But to see Jordan Love throwing
3:07
Speaker 1: the ball across the middle to Jayden Reid, Yeah, one
3:09
Speaker 1: of the best signs to see for an offense that
3:12
Speaker 1: God needs some explosiveness and You almost forget Jayden Reid
3:15
Speaker 1: in the middle of it, with how much we've talked
3:17
Speaker 1: about Matthew Golden, a huge contract for Christian Watson well
3:21
Speaker 1: compensated in his own right now.
3:22
Speaker 5: Is Jayden Reid?
3:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely and rightfully so. He had an injury plague
3:27
Speaker 2: year last year. But as as that game ensued, the
3:30
Speaker 2: thing I like most about the Pittsburgh game was the
3:32
Speaker 2: offense got a ten play drive under its belt and
3:35
Speaker 2: got a couple of points on a few points on
3:36
Speaker 2: the board, and.
3:38
Speaker 5: We got to see Tray smack a little bit.
3:39
Speaker 1: We'll definitely talk some smack later on here today as
3:43
Speaker 1: we assume there will be some kicking rolling through, but
3:46
Speaker 1: he has been the talk of it.
3:47
Speaker 5: Wayne.
3:48
Speaker 1: I hate being forced to talk solely about kickers. But
3:52
Speaker 1: he quieted some of the talk with how well he
3:54
Speaker 1: performed on Thursday night.
3:55
Speaker 3: Yeah.
3:55
Speaker 2: I think the two areas the two exposures that he had,
4:00
Speaker 2: you know, the family night practice. I mean people say, well,
4:02
Speaker 2: it's just practice, yeah, but it was in lambeau Field.
4:04
Speaker 2: It was under the lights, and the brightest spotlight was
4:07
Speaker 2: on him. Everybody's wondering, is this kid, you know, for real?
4:10
Speaker 2: Can he kick? And so under that circumstance. He kicked
4:13
Speaker 2: pretty well that night, missed a long fifty some yarder,
4:16
Speaker 2: but beyond that kick pretty well. And then I thought
4:18
Speaker 2: what he did in Pittsburgh. You know, Pittsburgh's not the
4:21
Speaker 2: easiest place to kick matter thatack might be the toughest
4:24
Speaker 2: place on the shores of the Monongahela and the Alleghany,
4:28
Speaker 2: so with the wind currents there, and he went out
4:31
Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, and you know, I thought his warm up
4:33
Speaker 2: was really good. I watched it closely, and then in
4:35
Speaker 2: the game he delivered on every kick he had, and
4:37
Speaker 2: so I think that shirt certainly helps his confidence.
4:41
Speaker 3: You know, he has the talent. We know that he
4:43
Speaker 3: wouldn't be here.
4:44
Speaker 2: They don't trade two seventh round draft choices to move
4:46
Speaker 2: up into the sixth round to get a guy who
4:49
Speaker 2: can't doesn't have the light strength.
4:50
Speaker 3: Okay, so he's.
4:51
Speaker 2: Got the physical aspect of it, but like a golfer,
4:54
Speaker 2: what is paramount for a kicker is the mental toughness.
4:59
Speaker 2: And they feel this it has that, and you know,
5:01
Speaker 2: but at any rate, he's got to be in a
5:03
Speaker 2: good place right now based on the way he's been
5:05
Speaker 2: kicking of late.
5:06
Speaker 1: Totally and hearing you know, Brian Goodacun spoke earlier on today.
5:09
Speaker 1: He spoke last week after that showing at Family Night
5:12
Speaker 1: the way Trey performed, and it does appear that he's
5:15
Speaker 1: got a little bit more of that mental makeup. That's
5:17
Speaker 1: exactly what you need to be able to see out
5:19
Speaker 1: of the kicking spot. We'll probably see him kick a
5:21
Speaker 1: little bit later on here. Today we're seeing one on
5:23
Speaker 1: one pass rush to the far side. Jordan Morgan just
5:26
Speaker 1: went up against Baron Surrell and won cleanly around the edge.
5:30
Speaker 1: We're seeing a lot of work for Anthony Belton over
5:32
Speaker 1: at right tackle, who has apparently just taken that spot
5:36
Speaker 1: as the swing tackle, and jay Von Hargrave taking a
5:39
Speaker 1: pass rush one on one rep for maybe the first
5:42
Speaker 1: time in camp. Beautiful to see the free agent signing
5:45
Speaker 1: with a little welcome to the NFL moment for one
5:47
Speaker 1: Jagger Burt.
5:48
Speaker 2: Jager Burton got beat right away by Javon Hartgrave.
5:51
Speaker 3: Billy.
5:51
Speaker 2: When I saw ninety eight out there, I said, wait
5:53
Speaker 2: a minute, who's that. Check the roster quickly because he's
5:56
Speaker 2: been out for so long. But it's good to see
5:58
Speaker 2: ninety eight out there. He's going to be a contributor
6:01
Speaker 2: There's no doubt Burton fared a little bit better on
6:03
Speaker 2: that rep there, holding off Javon Hargrave.
6:06
Speaker 1: But the vet was still back there forcing a p
6:09
Speaker 1: He's a little I don't mean this in any derogatory fan,
6:13
Speaker 1: a little smaller than I had anticipate. Tight, shorter cat,
6:16
Speaker 1: but really really quick off the football.
6:19
Speaker 5: Him and DeVante Wyatt.
6:20
Speaker 1: Excited to see that pairing because ultimately instantly off the football.
6:24
Speaker 2: And Chris McClellan seems to be a guy who shows
6:27
Speaker 2: a lot as well out there. And you know, we
6:30
Speaker 2: just saw Jayden Crummity make it around the end. He's
6:34
Speaker 2: one of their rookie free agent defensive ends that they're
6:38
Speaker 2: trying out here in this camp. But this pass rush drill,
6:41
Speaker 2: and again it's one on one and I believe that
6:46
Speaker 2: was Cannard who is battling Krummedy there at tackle. This
6:51
Speaker 2: iskewed to favor the defensive player because he doesn't have
6:55
Speaker 2: to think about run. I mean, this is a pass
6:57
Speaker 2: rush drill, so the offensive players at a bit of
6:59
Speaker 2: a disadvantage, and that's where you get a good test.
7:02
Speaker 1: And you get such a good test of your ability
7:05
Speaker 1: to anchor down against a bull rush against the speed
7:07
Speaker 1: to power move, work some counter moves if you're a
7:10
Speaker 1: defensive end, and right there a good runoff to the
7:13
Speaker 1: right side by Cooper to just force Moseby up the field.
7:17
Speaker 1: And as the offensive tackle, Wayne, when you can get
7:19
Speaker 1: your hand into that hip pocket and just run somebody
7:21
Speaker 1: around to merry go around. There are good feelings in
7:23
Speaker 1: the world that one about as good as any or
7:27
Speaker 1: what we just saw right there, being able to force
7:29
Speaker 1: somebody onto the ground against their own willpower Cooper going
7:33
Speaker 1: up against Moseby, a good battle back and forth. And
7:36
Speaker 1: now we get into the twos and threes, A couple
7:38
Speaker 1: of the questions will be about main players consistently when
7:42
Speaker 1: you start talking to people after one preseason game, three
7:45
Speaker 1: plays for the starters on defense, but Lucas van Nes
7:49
Speaker 1: showed out. I thought Zayer Franklin confirmed what we've been
7:52
Speaker 1: telling people a lot about so far. Wayne at training
7:55
Speaker 1: camp he was a factor early. But I thought van
7:59
Speaker 1: Ness really he popped with the explosiveness and the speed
8:03
Speaker 1: that he was able to get to the quarterback off
8:05
Speaker 1: of a counter on that second rush. He was sublime
8:07
Speaker 1: in those three snaps that he got.
8:09
Speaker 2: Oh I tell you what that sack he made that
8:12
Speaker 2: was relentlessness. He just kept coming and you're right, initially
8:16
Speaker 2: he seemed like he was blocked and then he made
8:18
Speaker 2: a quick move he got around the defender of the
8:20
Speaker 2: blocker and got to the quarterback. Lucas has had a
8:23
Speaker 2: terrific camp folks, by any measure, and that was good
8:27
Speaker 2: to see he show something in that game. He was
8:32
Speaker 2: in for three plays, had a run stop in a sack. Boy,
8:35
Speaker 2: that's pretty good production.
8:36
Speaker 5: That's a good day.
8:37
Speaker 1: And then he can with a baseball happ cap on
8:39
Speaker 1: and feel better about it. He's working his way back
8:41
Speaker 1: in with a little bit of a shoulder thing. You
8:44
Speaker 1: realize that this is the drill of campaign. When you
8:47
Speaker 1: get the running backs, both Marshawn Lloyd and Josh Jacobs
8:50
Speaker 1: front and center. They don't want to miss a minute
8:51
Speaker 1: of this because it becomes the most entertaining time of
8:55
Speaker 1: the practice and be able to see the big boys
8:58
Speaker 1: get get a little bit of scrap and a little
9:00
Speaker 1: but a scuffle. Matt Lafleur addressed the couple of little
9:02
Speaker 1: scuffles that they may have seen on Sunday. We're getting
9:06
Speaker 1: to the point whene where we're all getting sick and
9:08
Speaker 1: tired of each other, right, Like, this is the point
9:10
Speaker 1: where you're really starting to get frustrated with each other.
9:14
Speaker 1: Back in the day, this would be fight season. However,
9:18
Speaker 1: coach mentioned it today that if you can't do it
9:21
Speaker 1: in the midst of the season and in a real game,
9:23
Speaker 1: it doesn't make much sense to scrap that way in practice.
9:26
Speaker 1: They've had a very very fight free camp at Spellway.
9:29
Speaker 3: Yeah they have.
9:30
Speaker 2: So you know, I don't know about you, but I
9:33
Speaker 2: didn't mind hearing about scuffles.
9:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm never gonna be against it.
9:37
Speaker 3: It's go best.
9:38
Speaker 2: It goes back to what we've talked about, Billy, especially
9:41
Speaker 2: last week. When does the team come together? Is the
9:44
Speaker 2: team coming together? Now? They're trying to make the team.
9:47
Speaker 2: Everybody's trying to make the team. And I know there's
9:49
Speaker 2: some veterans who aren't being challenged because they're starters and
9:53
Speaker 2: et cetera. Gain I get that, but most of this
9:55
Speaker 2: roster folks up here, they're trying to make this football team.
9:58
Speaker 2: So when does the team come together? I think it
10:01
Speaker 2: comes together once they established the fifty three man roster.
10:03
Speaker 2: Then you start saying, Okay, this is the guy I'm
10:06
Speaker 2: gonna be dressing next to for the entire season.
10:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, you start getting a little bit more confidence in
10:10
Speaker 1: the group because you know that the group is gonna
10:12
Speaker 1: be together and some good DAPs off to our right
10:14
Speaker 1: for Javon Hargrave as he welcomes his presidence in Hey,
10:18
Speaker 1: we've seen him across the NFL. Right, Hargrave was with
10:21
Speaker 1: Jonathan Gannon in Philadelphia for a defensive line that was
10:26
Speaker 1: you go back and look at the names. It might
10:29
Speaker 1: not have jumped off the page at the moment, Josh
10:31
Speaker 1: what was an eighteen SAT guy. Javon Hargrave is a
10:33
Speaker 1: multiple time Pro bowler, Fletcher Cox's potential future Hall of Famer,
10:37
Speaker 1: Like they had real guys there. Hargrave might be a
10:40
Speaker 1: little longer in the tooth, but if he's able to
10:43
Speaker 1: do just that, that was a factor for this defense
10:46
Speaker 1: a year ago when Parsons was on the field and
10:49
Speaker 1: then when he was off, their inability waying to consistently
10:53
Speaker 1: pressure up the middle. It seems like Hargrave and McClellan
10:56
Speaker 1: are both guys that can help Wyatt in that exact.
10:59
Speaker 2: Caddag and why it went down that became a real problem.
11:02
Speaker 2: He went down Thanksgiving Day and that was the first
11:06
Speaker 2: real chink in the armor, I thought, defensively, and that's
11:09
Speaker 2: where you started to see some slippage, and a lot
11:11
Speaker 2: of it had to do with that pressure they were
11:13
Speaker 2: getting from the interior earlier in the year with Devonte Whatt.
11:17
Speaker 2: Now you put hard Grave in there and McClellan and
11:20
Speaker 2: I think you've got it covered. I mean, there's you know,
11:23
Speaker 2: those guys can push the pocket from within.
11:25
Speaker 1: Slowly working his way back into full team drills, but
11:28
Speaker 1: he was in eleven on eleven contact yesterday.
11:31
Speaker 5: Tucker Kraft.
11:32
Speaker 1: Now we've seen him working his way back off the
11:33
Speaker 1: ACL all of camp. Great to see him in team
11:37
Speaker 1: drills and be able to work together with the.
11:39
Speaker 5: Number one offense.
11:40
Speaker 1: He's off by the quarterbacks at the moment, poised for
11:43
Speaker 1: such a massive year. But Wayne, when you hear players
11:47
Speaker 1: discuss how much the game means to them the way
11:50
Speaker 1: Tucker did at his locker on Sunday, rightfully so and understandably.
11:55
Speaker 1: So that's probably going to be somebody that has to
11:57
Speaker 1: see on his jersey for a long standing time here
12:00
Speaker 1: in Green Bay. And that was an impressive thing to
12:02
Speaker 1: hear from somebody who's got a lot on the line.
12:04
Speaker 1: But the only thing he wanted to lay out on
12:06
Speaker 1: the line was playing a little bit of regular full
12:10
Speaker 1: eleven on eleven full contact a month away from from
12:13
Speaker 1: an actual game here, Kay.
12:14
Speaker 2: I can't agree with you more, Billy, And he will
12:16
Speaker 2: have that see on his chest probably for as long
12:19
Speaker 2: as he wants to wear it on this team, because
12:22
Speaker 2: he is one of the leaders, there's no doubt about that.
12:25
Speaker 3: And it's good to.
12:25
Speaker 2: See him back and good to see him get involved
12:28
Speaker 2: here because you know he wants to hit the he
12:31
Speaker 2: wants to hit the track running when the season begins
12:34
Speaker 2: in Minneapolis, and I think he'll be ready to do that.
12:37
Speaker 2: He doesn't want any limitations, he doesn't want any questions.
12:40
Speaker 2: He wants those questions answered. I wouldn't be surprised.
12:43
Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe they'll hold him out of preseason.
12:46
Speaker 2: But if I, you know, if he's ready to go,
12:47
Speaker 2: if he's capable of going, I'd get him a few
12:50
Speaker 2: licks in a preseason game and then get him out
12:52
Speaker 2: of there. But just so that the first hits he's
12:54
Speaker 2: taken aren't in Minneapolis, but they're earlier than that, and
12:58
Speaker 2: he's gotten past that hurdle.
13:00
Speaker 1: And be able to be into the controlled practices here
13:03
Speaker 1: next week will be great, a bit great work for
13:07
Speaker 1: all of the first teamers and brings up a real
13:10
Speaker 1: conversation of will the Packers starters end up going coming
13:13
Speaker 1: up on Friday night. We shall see as they go
13:16
Speaker 1: into the altitude and take on the Denver Broncos.
13:18
Speaker 3: Wayne.
13:18
Speaker 1: Most importantly, I'm just glad you guys aren't in Denver
13:21
Speaker 1: for what seemed like a week now.
13:22
Speaker 5: I like the joint.
13:23
Speaker 1: Practice on the road. I think there's something to taking
13:26
Speaker 1: your operation on the road. And I'm a guy that
13:29
Speaker 1: firmly believes teams bond a lot more around a keg
13:32
Speaker 1: than they do kale. When you go out on the road,
13:34
Speaker 1: you're forced to be around the team, forced to be
13:37
Speaker 1: around your your teammates, and that can be where some
13:39
Speaker 1: of it can come together. But that was a long
13:42
Speaker 1: time and felt like it really interrupted some of the
13:45
Speaker 1: flow of what the Packers were doing there.
13:47
Speaker 2: And that's why Matt Lafleur decided not to do a
13:50
Speaker 2: joint practice on the road. And here's the problem, folks.
13:53
Speaker 2: What happened last We went out two days before, three
13:58
Speaker 2: days before, we went out like an Wednesday, practiced against
14:01
Speaker 2: the Broncos on a Thursday day off on Friday sort
14:06
Speaker 2: of and you know, some walkthroughs and that type of thing,
14:08
Speaker 2: and then the game on Saturday, and the game was
14:10
Speaker 2: Saturday night, and you know, Matt just felt that was
14:13
Speaker 2: just too much time on the road, that was just
14:15
Speaker 2: too long a thing. So instead of doing that, he
14:18
Speaker 2: decided not to do that this year and to spend
14:21
Speaker 2: the time here at training camp.
14:23
Speaker 1: And you're starting to see across the NFL, as special
14:26
Speaker 1: teams work and individual practice rolls through, some different vets
14:29
Speaker 1: end up getting signed. Yesterday, we saw Keenan Allen get
14:32
Speaker 1: signed by the Indianapolis Colts. Earlier on today, former Packers
14:38
Speaker 1: Zadaria Smith one year deal with the Atlanta Falcons. Just
14:41
Speaker 1: now somebody that I know a lot of people have
14:43
Speaker 1: had their eyes on in the running back room. Josh
14:46
Speaker 1: Jacobs back at practice today as he returns from his
14:49
Speaker 1: groin injury. A good sign Matt Lafloor talking about and
14:52
Speaker 1: people mentioning it across. But Naji Harris goes to the
14:55
Speaker 1: New York Giants on a one year deal. There's still
14:59
Speaker 1: a couple of vets that are floating out there in
15:01
Speaker 1: the sphere. Wayne, and I know on the offensive line,
15:04
Speaker 1: people in Wisconsin love the name Kevin Zeidler, rightfully so
15:07
Speaker 1: for the incredibly incredible career he had at Wisconsin and
15:10
Speaker 1: has in the NFL. But there does seem to be
15:13
Speaker 1: a couple of spots on the football team that if
15:16
Speaker 1: they can't get healthier, I'm thinking as our conversation with
15:20
Speaker 1: Tucker Craft evolved, still no real word on when you
15:25
Speaker 1: might be able to see Luke Musgrave. I think Josh
15:27
Speaker 1: Wiley has looked good so far in camp. There's a
15:30
Speaker 1: couple of names like a JOHNA Smith out there. Are
15:32
Speaker 1: we in that time frame where you think the Packers
15:35
Speaker 1: start looking at those or are we still a couple
15:37
Speaker 1: of weeks away they still want to get a better
15:39
Speaker 1: look at some of their young players that we've had
15:40
Speaker 1: in Ken.
15:41
Speaker 3: There is no question there.
15:42
Speaker 2: On top of that, the personnel department pro personnel department
15:45
Speaker 2: for the Packers very much aware of all that, and
15:49
Speaker 2: Billy and you know they do exactly what you said. Okay,
15:54
Speaker 2: got a couple of question marks. Let's sake question marks
15:56
Speaker 2: at guard. Okay, is there a guard out there? Or
15:59
Speaker 2: we need a second tight end? You know, we got
16:02
Speaker 2: our inline guy, but maybe another guy who can get
16:04
Speaker 2: into the passing lanes a little bit more. Maybe that's
16:07
Speaker 2: John O's Smith. You know, a veteran out there like that.
16:10
Speaker 2: You got to be careful with who you bring in
16:12
Speaker 2: and what they how they impact their locker room and
16:15
Speaker 2: the roster, and what they do with the people in
16:17
Speaker 2: that tight end room or offensive line room or whatever
16:22
Speaker 2: physician you address with one of these late camp veteran acquisitions.
16:27
Speaker 1: And ye also, I mean, let's be honest about you
16:29
Speaker 1: got to make sure you have the glue right, Like
16:31
Speaker 1: some of those guys probably aren't getting off the couch
16:33
Speaker 1: if it's not for a certain amount of cash. Yeah,
16:36
Speaker 1: at this point, you got to be able to make
16:37
Speaker 1: it worth their while. Apparently he's various smith almost six
16:40
Speaker 1: and a half million bucks. It's a good, good gig
16:41
Speaker 1: if you can still get it.
16:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think you can get that working as
16:44
Speaker 2: an executive in a for two five hunter companies.
16:47
Speaker 3: No, not six points some million.
16:49
Speaker 5: No, I don't think that one's gonna happen.
16:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, might be, might be a little while before you
16:53
Speaker 1: can put that one on me. Bill Hubert did match
16:55
Speaker 1: you because we were a little blocked from the one
16:57
Speaker 1: on one past. Catching We're rush is hard to take
17:01
Speaker 1: your eyes off of when three hundred pound behemoths are
17:04
Speaker 1: battling right in front of you. One of the main highlights,
17:06
Speaker 1: as Bill Huber mentioned, was sky Moore beating Xavier McKinney
17:10
Speaker 1: badly for a touchdown, then McKinny coming back for an
17:13
Speaker 1: interception while covering sky Moore more as a fascinating cat.
17:17
Speaker 1: We saw him a little bit on the offensive side
17:19
Speaker 1: on Thursday night, when I think we see a lot
17:21
Speaker 1: more of.
17:21
Speaker 5: Him coming up on Friday and beyond.
17:24
Speaker 1: Because Matt Viflor mentioned it earlier on today, or maybe
17:26
Speaker 1: it was Brian Goodekunz, they kind of blend together of
17:29
Speaker 1: wanting to the possibility of keeping seven wide receivers. We've
17:33
Speaker 1: seen j Michael Sturdivan Isaiah and they are both looking
17:36
Speaker 1: very very good, but it's difficult to keep them any
17:38
Speaker 1: guys unless you have core special teamers like a Bowt
17:42
Speaker 1: Melton or sky Moore are gonna be on the team
17:45
Speaker 1: for that. But anything you can get from sky more
17:47
Speaker 1: offensively gonna be a bonus.
17:49
Speaker 5: And they're trying desperately to find some more rules for it.
17:52
Speaker 2: And not just throwing the ball to him, handing it
17:54
Speaker 2: to him, you know what I mean. The jet, sweep motion,
17:56
Speaker 2: the orbit motion around the offensive backfield, different ways of
18:01
Speaker 2: getting him the ball, and he's probably best when you
18:04
Speaker 2: get him the ball in space, you know what I mean.
18:06
Speaker 2: He may not be the great route runner you're looking
18:08
Speaker 2: for that kind of thing, but if he can give
18:10
Speaker 2: them a return game both kicks and punts, if he
18:13
Speaker 2: can provide them a gadget on offense, man, he can.
18:17
Speaker 3: Be valuable to this football team.
18:20
Speaker 1: Very excited to see his practice continues on. Some more
18:23
Speaker 1: of those guys get some work and we'll get into
18:25
Speaker 1: a team period coming up here shortly, working on some
18:28
Speaker 1: punts and some live Daniel Whalen punts is he pins
18:31
Speaker 1: one right inside the twelve yard line, caught by Will
18:33
Speaker 1: Sheppard right there.
18:34
Speaker 2: And Bill, I know we're going to go to a
18:35
Speaker 2: break here pretty soon. But Daniel Wheeling's I guess work
18:41
Speaker 2: this summer has involved a lot of placement punting, a
18:44
Speaker 2: lot of directional kicking this year, and maybe that's something
18:48
Speaker 2: that he's he can boom it. He led the league
18:51
Speaker 2: in gross punting. But I think what they'd also like
18:54
Speaker 2: to see a man a little bit more of is
18:56
Speaker 2: that placement, you know, along the sidelines inside the ten
19:00
Speaker 2: yard line type of thing, you know, corner coffin types
19:03
Speaker 2: of kicks, especially if you have a dangerous return man
19:06
Speaker 2: on the other side.
19:07
Speaker 1: And in Pittsburgh on Thursday night, he had one that
19:09
Speaker 1: was just a millimeter away from being a beautifully placed
19:14
Speaker 1: one right inside the inside the five yard line. Coverage
19:17
Speaker 1: teams getting down there and gonna be a factor of it.
19:19
Speaker 1: But closely watching some more of the maybe best punter
19:23
Speaker 1: in football working off to our left side as he
19:26
Speaker 1: takes a beautiful waist ice snap, big swing of the
19:29
Speaker 1: right leg. That one's caught right there by Jean Ncknixon
19:32
Speaker 1: at the nine yard line, and a lot of room
19:34
Speaker 1: out in front, a lot of room for you to
19:36
Speaker 1: join us, not in the stands here in rayn Ishki Field,
19:39
Speaker 1: but on YouTube x Facebook as well as the free
19:42
Speaker 1: iHeart radio app.
19:42
Speaker 5: But it is one of the letdowns of all sports.
19:45
Speaker 1: You want to have a better batting average at the
19:47
Speaker 1: Potawatami Sports book than Cal Rowley does for the Seattle Mariners.
19:51
Speaker 5: So go in today, go and place a minimum.
19:53
Speaker 1: Sports bet or a maximum sports bet, whatever you feel
19:57
Speaker 1: comfortable and confident investing in, and if you're going to
20:00
Speaker 1: the game, you'll get a ride to and from the game.
20:02
Speaker 1: A same day sportsbook bet or a sportsbook dining purchase
20:04
Speaker 1: gets you a ride to and from American Family Field.
20:07
Speaker 5: You're along with us for the ride.
20:09
Speaker 1: As the Packers number one offense meets the number one defense,
20:13
Speaker 1: we see Aaron Banks, Wayne larvie In is about as
20:17
Speaker 1: clue close to the number one offense as you'll see
20:20
Speaker 1: Bacco Zach Baco Buela still working his way back into
20:24
Speaker 1: team portions, as Anthony Belton is working right now with
20:27
Speaker 1: the number one offensive line at right tackle. Saw some
20:31
Speaker 1: as that one goes quickly to Matthew Golden and right
20:34
Speaker 1: now speed right up to seam.
20:35
Speaker 5: Didn't even blink and you missed it.
20:37
Speaker 1: We're seeing a good long look Josh Jacobs back in practice.
20:41
Speaker 1: First day for him, but a lot of run for
20:44
Speaker 1: marsha On Lloyd in preseason game number one, you'd expect
20:48
Speaker 1: the longer one. He's been out there with the first
20:50
Speaker 1: team as well. Here Wayne, I felt like you could
20:54
Speaker 1: tell there was a little bit of indecision but wanting
20:58
Speaker 1: to do something kind of like me when I get
21:00
Speaker 1: to the candy store or the candy aisle. Marshawn Lloyd
21:03
Speaker 1: was jumping at any and every gap, like he's been
21:06
Speaker 1: waiting to be able to get into a football game
21:08
Speaker 1: for the first time in a while.
21:09
Speaker 5: I thought the burst was there.
21:11
Speaker 1: But maybe just a little bit cleaner looks and reading
21:14
Speaker 1: of the holes will be what you hope to see
21:16
Speaker 1: from him going on.
21:17
Speaker 3: I thought he was shaking off rust.
21:19
Speaker 2: You know. The vision aspect of it, I think is
21:22
Speaker 2: what you're talking about, Bill, and the timing. You know,
21:25
Speaker 2: vision and timing, it's so key. We never talk about
21:28
Speaker 2: that with running backs. We talk about other things, but
21:30
Speaker 2: that's really the key. You've got to read your blocks
21:32
Speaker 2: and you've got to nowhere to go if this hole
21:35
Speaker 2: isn't open to where to bounce it. That kind of thing,
21:37
Speaker 2: and that's you know, that comes from almost two years
21:40
Speaker 2: of not playing football, Yeah, and.
21:42
Speaker 1: Just a waiting and jones and to be able to
21:45
Speaker 1: get in and if it's been like you said, so
21:48
Speaker 1: long since, he's got an extended run and we're seeing
21:51
Speaker 1: some good runs so far from Marshawn Lloyd in campus,
21:54
Speaker 1: Jaydeen Reid comes around the orbit zone and or orbit
21:58
Speaker 1: motion and now inside is Marshawn Lloyd. He hits the
22:01
Speaker 1: deck and a couple of bodies hit the ground and
22:04
Speaker 1: now the ball pops out and the defense letting you
22:07
Speaker 1: know that it's their football. Zaire Franklin the first one,
22:10
Speaker 1: Zaire Franklin was probably five or six yards away from
22:13
Speaker 1: where the ball went out, but he was the first
22:15
Speaker 1: one to let you know, ball's out and it's going
22:17
Speaker 1: our way. Packers first team offense getting a long run
22:20
Speaker 1: here at the first team defense. Devonte Wyatt getting some
22:23
Speaker 1: reps already in this portion of team mentioned Aaron Banks.
22:28
Speaker 1: He came in for Jagger Burton, who started at left guard.
22:31
Speaker 1: At right guard, it's been Jacob munk pretty much this
22:34
Speaker 1: entire time, and and.
22:36
Speaker 2: I wonder if that's going to be what we see
22:38
Speaker 2: in Minneapolis, Jacob munkett right guard.
22:40
Speaker 3: It's very possible.
22:42
Speaker 1: It really is, Wayne, especially when he is giving you
22:45
Speaker 1: no reason to take him out of the spot. And
22:48
Speaker 1: you had a beautiful rep right there working against Devonte
22:51
Speaker 1: Wyatt in a great catch by Joshua.
22:53
Speaker 2: Josh Wiley spinning around for that catch the ball, throwing
22:56
Speaker 2: more back shoulder. I think Jordan Love had to do
22:59
Speaker 2: that because the cover was out front, and Wiley made
23:02
Speaker 2: a great adjustment.
23:03
Speaker 3: You know, he shows me.
23:04
Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but in this camp I've
23:06
Speaker 2: seen more of him as a receiver than I in
23:09
Speaker 2: more ability as a receiver than I thought.
23:11
Speaker 1: A ton and you have it. We got just a
23:13
Speaker 1: glimpse of what he could be a receiving wise last year.
23:17
Speaker 1: And was it the New York game that he went
23:19
Speaker 1: out with the concussion?
23:21
Speaker 3: I think so.
23:22
Speaker 1: And it felt like he was starting to have a
23:24
Speaker 1: little bit a breakout in his role.
23:26
Speaker 2: Right And yeah, he played well that day and went
23:28
Speaker 2: out with a concussion, and you know it wasn't quite
23:31
Speaker 2: he did through off his season, no doubt about that.
23:34
Speaker 5: They definitely have something with him though.
23:36
Speaker 1: And Jacob Munk pulling around to the left side misses
23:39
Speaker 1: the intended target on the poll, however, the run gets
23:42
Speaker 1: stuffed up as Chris Brooks. Nice to see him back
23:44
Speaker 1: into team practices. It's been a little bit of a
23:47
Speaker 1: slow grind to get Chris Brooks up to speed.
23:49
Speaker 5: As he walked in on the NFI list.
23:52
Speaker 1: Packer's first team offense comes off, second team offense will
23:57
Speaker 1: join the party and will join Anthony.
24:00
Speaker 5: Calton is the only guy that stays out there.
24:01
Speaker 1: A lot of run over at right tackle and Wahene
24:05
Speaker 1: A lot's been talked about Belton felt like he was
24:07
Speaker 1: going to be maybe the incumbent, the leader in the
24:09
Speaker 1: clubhouse for that right guard spot.
24:11
Speaker 5: It's got a ton of reps at right tackle.
24:13
Speaker 1: And whether or not that was how you anticipated camp
24:17
Speaker 1: going for him for his career, probably not a bad
24:20
Speaker 1: thing to play somewhere that is won as well compensated
24:24
Speaker 1: as the right tackle position is in the NFL. But
24:27
Speaker 1: also they need somebody to be able to lock down
24:31
Speaker 1: that swing tackle because you saw Darien Canard a lot
24:34
Speaker 1: not for a Ton at left tackle, but a lot
24:36
Speaker 1: in for Zach Bacabela and that six offensive line format.
24:41
Speaker 1: Belton's going to be a part of it, if what
24:44
Speaker 1: we've seen indications wise out here would be he's going
24:47
Speaker 1: to be over at that right side kind of locking
24:50
Speaker 1: up a lot of that physically because of just his
24:52
Speaker 1: stature in size.
24:54
Speaker 2: Matt Lafleura mentioned to us last week that it seems
24:57
Speaker 2: like to him anyway, Belton is more comfortable attack.
25:00
Speaker 3: It's what he was in college.
25:02
Speaker 2: You know, in the NFL, they'll sometimes move a tackle
25:04
Speaker 2: into guard and sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't.
25:08
Speaker 2: And I got the impression from what Matt was saying
25:10
Speaker 2: in the way he said it that maybe it's not
25:12
Speaker 2: so much working out a card, but they still feel
25:15
Speaker 2: that his kid can be a very good tackle.
25:17
Speaker 3: He certainly has the dimension for it.
25:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's certainly had plenty of opportunity to show
25:23
Speaker 1: in camp right now that he can hold it down.
25:25
Speaker 1: And he had a quick rush off to the right
25:28
Speaker 1: side by Aaron Mosby against him on this one as
25:31
Speaker 1: the second team offense roles against a lot of the
25:34
Speaker 1: second team defense, and apart that's.
25:35
Speaker 3: Got a better angle than I do.
25:36
Speaker 2: I'm being blocked back camera guy who just blocks out
25:40
Speaker 2: that happens in front of me. I can't see a
25:42
Speaker 2: damn thing.
25:43
Speaker 5: Well, luckily you didn't miss much.
25:44
Speaker 1: The one thing you missed right there is Carrington Valentine
25:47
Speaker 1: running with the two.
25:48
Speaker 5: Is him back at practice?
25:49
Speaker 1: Wayne will add to the competition that is now flared
25:54
Speaker 1: up over at corner. Keishawn Nixon Lightning rod as always
25:59
Speaker 1: was speaking at his locker on Sunday. Admittedly, so I
26:03
Speaker 1: didn't think he said anything that was super out of bounds.
26:06
Speaker 1: At no point did he straight up you know, trash
26:08
Speaker 1: anybody who said, yeah, it seems like I'm being punished
26:10
Speaker 1: right now. I did make the Pro Bowl a year ago.
26:13
Speaker 1: But I'm going to be in a competition. Everybody is
26:15
Speaker 1: going to be in competition on the football team, and
26:19
Speaker 1: as long as you are confident what you're going to
26:21
Speaker 1: be able to do, which I believe he firmly is.
26:24
Speaker 1: I think he believes he's going to win the job.
26:26
Speaker 1: And right now the twos are Carrington Valentine and Benjamin Saints.
26:31
Speaker 1: It feels like he will still be a leader in
26:34
Speaker 1: the clubhouse. But I think it almost speaks more to
26:36
Speaker 1: how Brandon Ceesay Wayne has seemingly locked up one of
26:39
Speaker 1: the spots and everybody else is going to have to
26:41
Speaker 1: battle for another.
26:42
Speaker 2: Carrington Valentine went out very early in camp with an injury,
26:46
Speaker 2: and Brandon Seesay, who'd been knocking on that door and
26:49
Speaker 2: was going to be in a competition with Valentine, he
26:52
Speaker 2: took over that position, and they seem very comfortable with
26:54
Speaker 2: him and willing to grow with the ups and downs
26:59
Speaker 2: that are rookie provides at that position.
27:01
Speaker 1: And there's obviously going to be pluses and minuses to
27:04
Speaker 1: having somebody that young in the position, But baptism by
27:09
Speaker 1: fire when you look at the first five weeks that
27:11
Speaker 1: the Packers have. I mean, they go up against some
27:13
Speaker 1: of the best pass catchers in football in that first week.
27:17
Speaker 1: Keep forgetting that Mike Evans is no longer a Tampa
27:19
Speaker 1: Bay buccaneer now he's a.
27:20
Speaker 5: San Francisco forty nine er.
27:22
Speaker 1: But Chris Godwins made multiple Pro Bowls, and Mecca Abuco
27:26
Speaker 1: was a phenomenal rookie a year ago. And those guys
27:30
Speaker 1: that doesn't mention Jordan Maddison and Justin Jefferson who are
27:32
Speaker 1: looking their chops with a rookie un opening Daywayne Drake London.
27:37
Speaker 2: Drake London in Atlanta with the Falcons, and so all
27:40
Speaker 2: of that will be happening early on. We're going to
27:42
Speaker 2: get a quick look at this defense of the secondary
27:44
Speaker 2: and how they can cover the best in the league.
27:47
Speaker 1: And Garrett Wilson there in week number two is no
27:50
Speaker 1: slouch either. Beautiful play right there made by Tyrod Taylor.
27:54
Speaker 1: He was the backup quarterback that didn't get a lot
27:57
Speaker 1: of conversation off of preseason game number one.
28:00
Speaker 5: Because I think one of the moments of the.
28:02
Speaker 1: First preseason game was the drive that Kyle McCord led
28:06
Speaker 1: in the two minute drill to set up trace back
28:08
Speaker 1: for the fifty eight yarder. That was big time, and
28:11
Speaker 1: you really saw a lot of poise from the young man.
28:14
Speaker 2: If that kid makes the team maybe as the third quarterback,
28:17
Speaker 2: that drive you can point back to that moment.
28:19
Speaker 1: Totally and whether or not it's this team or another.
28:24
Speaker 1: I think that gives you a lot of confidence and
28:26
Speaker 1: belief and he's going to be able to succeed if
28:29
Speaker 1: thrown in and you have to have some baptism by fire.
28:32
Speaker 1: They then also cut Kyron Drones the next day and
28:35
Speaker 1: he had four dropbacks Wayne resulted in three sacks and
28:39
Speaker 1: an incompletion. Yeah, that would be what we consider a
28:41
Speaker 1: bad day at the office. But I also thought the
28:44
Speaker 1: release was speaking to what they saw out of.
28:47
Speaker 2: Kyle mccle I agree, And you know, Drones, we knew
28:51
Speaker 2: development Okay, we talked about it early in camp. He
28:54
Speaker 2: was a developmental athlete at quarterback and a guy that
28:57
Speaker 2: has a lot of promise.
28:59
Speaker 3: But he was pretty fun behind. I think the other
29:01
Speaker 3: three guys.
29:02
Speaker 5: Much much better.
29:04
Speaker 1: Positioning here for the next cross the season, for the
29:08
Speaker 1: next run of team. As the Packers offense starts up
29:11
Speaker 1: with tight wide receivers off to the right, stacked up
29:15
Speaker 1: read and golden ball across medal golden and wide open. Yeah,
29:19
Speaker 1: not wide open, looks wide open because of the heater
29:22
Speaker 1: that he hauls in from Jordan Lone.
29:23
Speaker 2: Now I think Jordan Love is I wouldn't say forcing
29:27
Speaker 2: the ball to golden maybe too much of a statement,
29:29
Speaker 2: but looking for and getting golden because he needs to
29:33
Speaker 2: develop that chemistry with this wide receiver. This is an
29:37
Speaker 2: important wide receiver. Love and Christian Watson on the same page,
29:41
Speaker 2: Jayden Reid as well, but they need to get golden
29:44
Speaker 2: involved in this thing, and they are doing that in
29:47
Speaker 2: this camp.
29:48
Speaker 1: I think if I look at it as you know,
29:53
Speaker 1: simplistically as you can, I think the two biggest wild
29:56
Speaker 1: cards for the Packers in twenty twenty six will be
29:59
Speaker 1: Matthew and on the defensive side, I think it's Adrian Cooper.
30:02
Speaker 1: Probably two guys that were felt like the wild cards
30:05
Speaker 1: as Tucker Craft right across the middle. That's easy money
30:08
Speaker 1: on a fifteen yard crosser right up the middle. But
30:11
Speaker 1: it feels like those two players their developments or potential
30:16
Speaker 1: massive swings upward Wayne as real contributors and potentially really
30:22
Speaker 1: good NFL players, is where they kind of hang in
30:25
Speaker 1: the balance of how much they're counting and believing in
30:28
Speaker 1: trusting in those times.
30:29
Speaker 2: You look at the people around the quarterback in the
30:31
Speaker 2: receiving department, Watson Whye to the right here, Golden and
30:34
Speaker 2: Reeds slot to the left, the tight end, Tucker Craft.
30:38
Speaker 2: Those are really good players around this quarterback. They should
30:42
Speaker 2: if they can protect and run the football a little bit,
30:46
Speaker 2: they should have a very good offensive season. This is
30:50
Speaker 2: a top ten caliber offense if the offensive line can
30:53
Speaker 2: hold up its end of the bargain. And that's a
30:55
Speaker 2: huge question mark in this camp today.
30:58
Speaker 1: It's a big one and it's gonna be one of
30:59
Speaker 1: the questions all year long. As many have said that
31:04
Speaker 1: it was probably the worst performing offensive line that the
31:07
Speaker 1: Packers have had under Matt Lafleur, and I think it
31:10
Speaker 1: was potentially by a decent margin last year, the lowest
31:14
Speaker 1: performing offensive line that he's had. He's had some really
31:16
Speaker 1: really good ones with some really great players. Right now,
31:18
Speaker 1: that five up front features Zach baccobel over at right
31:22
Speaker 1: tackle next to Tucker Craft, and that is a beautiful
31:26
Speaker 1: thing for Packers fans to see as Jordan Love play
31:28
Speaker 1: action rips one across the middle.
31:31
Speaker 2: So Matthew Golden's open. It just seems like he only
31:35
Speaker 2: gets open.
31:36
Speaker 1: And now Matthew Golden chirp and big time at Carrington
31:40
Speaker 1: who's in there with the first team defense and Carrington Valentine.
31:44
Speaker 1: Let's Matthew Golden hear about it as he celebrates that
31:47
Speaker 1: grab right in front of him.
31:48
Speaker 3: Oh. Absolutely, competition. Yeah, well in.
31:51
Speaker 2: The cup.
31:54
Speaker 1: And there will be because we got the kicking that
31:56
Speaker 1: right off to our right. I imagine we're potentially seeing
31:59
Speaker 1: some of that and Valentine in four keyshott Nixon here
32:04
Speaker 1: as we start up this second run of team. But
32:07
Speaker 1: about five minutes ago we had said Brandon Sties seems
32:10
Speaker 1: like the incumbent. He's over there on the right side
32:12
Speaker 1: and has not moved. Jordan Morgan next to Jagger Burton
32:16
Speaker 1: on the left side of the Packers offensive line as
32:18
Speaker 1: a quick hitter finds Jayden Reid who is alone off
32:21
Speaker 1: the left and quickly right in front of Carrington Valentine.
32:25
Speaker 5: That one for Jayden Reid.
32:27
Speaker 1: His explosiveness is going to be important for how they
32:30
Speaker 1: can play offensively. And sky Moore rotating in and out,
32:33
Speaker 1: and so is Aaron Banks rotating in on the offensive line,
32:37
Speaker 1: but Jagger Burton getting the first touches in the first
32:40
Speaker 1: reps for team. In both of these two team periods there,
32:44
Speaker 1: left guard.
32:44
Speaker 2: Cowan Oliver is out there at edge rusher on this
32:48
Speaker 2: particular defensive look, so he's a guy to kind of
32:51
Speaker 2: look for. I think he's shown up a little bit
32:53
Speaker 2: of camp this year.
32:54
Speaker 1: And I thought he performed very well in his time
32:56
Speaker 1: during the preseason game.
32:57
Speaker 5: He had that one third down stop Wayne.
32:59
Speaker 1: That was one of the bigger defensive plays that the
33:02
Speaker 1: backers had, especially one of the only things to talk
33:04
Speaker 1: about in the second half.
33:05
Speaker 5: Defensively, second half wasn't all that fun.
33:08
Speaker 1: Josh Wiley gets a quick, quick route off to the
33:11
Speaker 1: right side, and this defense lined up as you mentioned,
33:16
Speaker 1: Colin Oliver stacked up right next to Lucas van As right.
33:19
Speaker 1: And we've wondered how much you can see players rushing
33:24
Speaker 1: one through five. Micah Parsons stopped by the NFL Network
33:27
Speaker 1: when they were here a couple of weeks ago and
33:30
Speaker 1: was talking with Brian Baldinger, former NFL offensive line means,
33:32
Speaker 1: like I think in the NFL, I'm the best at
33:35
Speaker 1: rushing one through five, up and down. The defensive line
33:39
Speaker 1: feels like they're gonna ask a lot of.
33:40
Speaker 5: Guys to be able to do that coming off this year.
33:43
Speaker 2: They're gonna move people around in the element of surprise
33:46
Speaker 2: and the skies, as they say, is a big factor
33:49
Speaker 2: for this defense under Jonathan Gannon.
33:51
Speaker 1: A couple of good reps early on this team, portion
33:55
Speaker 1: for Zach Pacoboela who gets himself back in here. And
33:59
Speaker 1: this is one of the unger runs for the first
34:01
Speaker 1: team offense as Adam Stenovich, offensive coordinator comes in and
34:05
Speaker 1: calls the play Matt lafore mentioned earlier today as he's
34:08
Speaker 1: done for I mean the last two or three preseasons,
34:10
Speaker 1: called the plays on Thursday Night been kind of a
34:13
Speaker 1: common theme for the Packers and how they've operated as
34:16
Speaker 1: they mug up just about everybody on the defensive line.
34:19
Speaker 1: Only player not within five yards of the football for
34:23
Speaker 1: the defense Xavior McKinney, who is right near the back end,
34:26
Speaker 1: would have been a tough ball to get off because
34:28
Speaker 1: Lucas van s was closing the gap quickly off to
34:32
Speaker 1: the right.
34:32
Speaker 2: Side, and that was a bomb down the sideline that
34:36
Speaker 2: Jayden Reidy could not come up with it. Keishawn Nixon
34:39
Speaker 2: with the Savior over the top X over the top
34:43
Speaker 2: on the coverage.
34:44
Speaker 3: From the safety positioning Xavier McKinney.
34:48
Speaker 1: Packers get another look at some of their younger defensive
34:52
Speaker 1: lineman here as Chris McClellan enters with or Nazer stackhouse
34:57
Speaker 1: By and Jonathan Ford and Kyle mccorr takes the set.
35:00
Speaker 1: Team reps hit Savian Williams across the middle and Savian
35:04
Speaker 1: flashed a little bit on Thursday night. Anticipate a lot
35:07
Speaker 1: more coming up for him on Friday.
35:09
Speaker 2: I think you're going to see him more exposure with him.
35:12
Speaker 2: We see it in the camp, folks. I know that
35:14
Speaker 2: you're not here obviously, if you're listening to this broadcast,
35:17
Speaker 2: probably not here. But we see a lot of Savion
35:22
Speaker 2: Williams in practice here. We know they have plans for him.
35:25
Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that.
35:26
Speaker 1: Stall rev hitting us up on the YouTube comments, you
35:29
Speaker 1: guys talking about Jordan Love to Matthew Golden over the
35:31
Speaker 1: Middle sounds like the days of Jordan Nelson over the
35:33
Speaker 1: Middle makes me smile hearing that. Take a deep breath.
35:37
Speaker 1: We're not guaranteeing any of that, but it does seem
35:39
Speaker 1: very very easy to be wondering and excited about the
35:44
Speaker 1: possibility of Matthew Golden catching up a bunch of balls
35:46
Speaker 1: this year because you're gonna get a lot of opportunities.
35:48
Speaker 1: They're throwing him in as the ex receiver and he's
35:51
Speaker 1: counted upon to be one of the leaders of this offense,
35:54
Speaker 1: which they trimmed a lot of you can say they
35:57
Speaker 1: trimmed the fat. They cut out a lot of the
36:01
Speaker 1: reps and the targets that were spread across.
36:03
Speaker 5: It's going to be concentrated.
36:05
Speaker 1: More on their number one guys, and clearly they've signaled
36:09
Speaker 1: that Golden is one of them.
36:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna be one of them, there's no doubt
36:12
Speaker 2: as a first round draft choice. Getting a look at
36:14
Speaker 2: Kyle McCord working here in the training camp. A little
36:17
Speaker 2: swing pass out to Messiah Swinson, the tight end chase
36:20
Speaker 2: down out of bounds by Jalen Simpson near a first down.
36:24
Speaker 2: The tight ends the thing you notice about in this camp.
36:27
Speaker 2: Drake Dabney another one who I think has had a
36:30
Speaker 2: terrific camp. Again, a free agent guy. Nobody knows him,
36:33
Speaker 2: but he looks like a guy who can play in
36:35
Speaker 2: line and maybe give you a little something in the flat.
36:38
Speaker 3: But the tight end's good size. These are big people
36:41
Speaker 3: at tight end.
36:42
Speaker 5: Now for the Packers, Yeah, they definitely have.
36:45
Speaker 1: As Brian Gudokunz mentioned after the twenty twenty one playoff
36:50
Speaker 1: game against the forty nine ers, we need to get
36:51
Speaker 1: bigger and we need to be as physical as possible.
36:53
Speaker 1: They have loaded up, especially at that position as McCord
36:58
Speaker 1: has to just get rid of that one quickly. As
37:00
Speaker 1: the rush was closing in and Tyron Hopper comes off.
37:04
Speaker 5: Wayne I thought, as a not a lot of young.
37:06
Speaker 1: Players, there wasn't a lot of defensive splashes that happened
37:09
Speaker 1: on Thursday night into the second half.
37:11
Speaker 5: Tyron Hopper I thought.
37:12
Speaker 1: Developed and looked very good in his game reps on Friday.
37:16
Speaker 2: On Thursday night, Billy, I think he has all the
37:18
Speaker 2: athletic ability in the world. Can he convert it to
37:20
Speaker 2: playing on a regular basis in the linebacking corps. I
37:23
Speaker 2: know the Packers think he can, and they're giving him
37:25
Speaker 2: an opportunity to show that in this camp. But I
37:27
Speaker 2: think he's a terrific athlete. I liking him a lot
37:30
Speaker 2: to Edgeran Cooper, you know that kind of ability level.
37:34
Speaker 1: Sky Moore lines up a little bit into the backfield
37:36
Speaker 1: there as the ball across the middle on a drag
37:39
Speaker 1: goes to Savian Williams completed and wraps up, and that
37:42
Speaker 1: concludes this portion team portion of practice in front of
37:46
Speaker 1: us here at ray Nichki Field.
37:48
Speaker 2: You like team practice when we can see it. Great
37:51
Speaker 2: in the offense, driving deep into the red zone, they're
37:53
Speaker 2: letting Tray Smack try a field goal here of the
37:57
Speaker 2: forty four yards it looks like off the right hash
38:00
Speaker 2: and again everyone talks about the wind here being tricky.
38:05
Speaker 3: I couldn't tell I was gonna say he missed it
38:07
Speaker 3: to the right.
38:08
Speaker 5: I think he missed it.
38:09
Speaker 1: But we're not positive because once again there will be
38:12
Speaker 1: no signaling if that kick is good or not.
38:14
Speaker 5: Will be no signaling year.
38:17
Speaker 1: Just like how they said no fighting in the bleachers.
38:19
Speaker 1: That did not work very well at Wrigley Field, they
38:21
Speaker 1: say no fighting at Packers practice. There have only been
38:23
Speaker 1: very little, limited scuffles. Nothing here today. But now three
38:26
Speaker 1: team periods. We like a lot more team periods when
38:29
Speaker 1: we like them a lot more when they're right out
38:31
Speaker 1: in front of us. Love the two minutes. There's a
38:33
Speaker 1: clear winner and a loser. The defense was the winner
38:36
Speaker 1: on that one potentially MS field.
38:38
Speaker 2: Goal, and there were what eleven seconds ago when that
38:41
Speaker 2: pass was attempted over the middle when deflected away from
38:45
Speaker 2: Watson into the hands of Zaire Franklin and now Tyrod
38:49
Speaker 2: Taylor running the offense. And this is always good to
38:52
Speaker 2: see how the second unit comes together. And Taylor veteran
38:56
Speaker 2: quarterback sixteen years oh, no, leaping grafted down field, sensational catch.
39:01
Speaker 2: But saveon Williams if I'm not mistaken in that catch.
39:05
Speaker 2: A leaping grab across the forty yard line in ediby territory.
39:10
Speaker 1: And a beautiful ball thrown right into the hole of
39:14
Speaker 1: the covered two defense in between Jalen Simpson And is
39:18
Speaker 1: that Kamal Hadden over there on the far side.
39:20
Speaker 5: A perfectly placed ball, Yeah.
39:22
Speaker 3: It really was.
39:22
Speaker 2: The coverage was pretty good. Quick slant here to sky Moore.
39:26
Speaker 2: He gets up, limping in, jogs off under his own
39:28
Speaker 2: power to the sideline. Doesn't look like any kind of
39:31
Speaker 2: a major problem there.
39:32
Speaker 3: But you hate to see that.
39:34
Speaker 1: Do you like to see Anthony Campbell back in a practice? Wayne,
39:37
Speaker 1: He's been one of the one of the real bright
39:40
Speaker 1: spots of camp so far, and he went down in
39:43
Speaker 1: the preseason game. Looked like he could have been a
39:45
Speaker 1: scarier situation. Good to see him back in pads and
39:48
Speaker 1: back rolling here and Keisha Nixon alongside our opposite I
39:52
Speaker 1: should say, Jalen Simpson here with the number two's in
39:56
Speaker 1: the quarterback realm. A lot of people listening to us
39:59
Speaker 1: want to make sure that they know what the cornerback
40:01
Speaker 1: rotation is. Over the last couple of weeks, and we've
40:03
Speaker 1: seen Brandon Ceesay locked in with the ones and a
40:06
Speaker 1: full rotation of those three. Nixon, Valentine and now Saint
40:10
Speaker 1: Juice getting the first run with the number one defense
40:14
Speaker 1: there as the ball goes errantly off to the left
40:16
Speaker 1: side to Messiahs Swinson as they reach a third down
40:20
Speaker 1: here about a third and ten from the thirty five
40:24
Speaker 1: yard line is the Packers' second offense takes a rip
40:27
Speaker 1: here in the two minute drill, forty four seconds to go,
40:30
Speaker 1: plenty of time need a field goal to tie. Three
40:32
Speaker 1: receivers off to the right side and Taylor with Nixon
40:36
Speaker 1: to the left, and the shotgun pumps rolls off right time.
40:40
Speaker 1: Ye Hits finds Will Sheppard there near the first down,
40:45
Speaker 1: probably a couple of yards short, right down to about
40:47
Speaker 1: the twenty nine.
40:49
Speaker 2: These guys roll their shirts up and so you only
40:51
Speaker 2: see half the number half the time, and it's really
40:54
Speaker 2: hard to determine who has it or does it.
40:56
Speaker 1: I'm glad that the Hall of Fame voice of the
40:58
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers having that same strip, because I mean
41:01
Speaker 1: it is Wayne's.
41:02
Speaker 5: It is difficult when you see it.
41:04
Speaker 1: No full panel, that's what Jagger Burton, thank you for
41:07
Speaker 1: the young man wearing the jersey fully all the way down.
41:10
Speaker 1: You see him come in with the kick block you
41:13
Speaker 1: or the field goal protection unit as trace man gets
41:15
Speaker 1: another opportunity, this one forty.
41:17
Speaker 3: Eight, forty eight yards away, ye, forty eight.
41:20
Speaker 1: Right, Hash Wheeland gets the nod, gets the snap, good
41:24
Speaker 1: snap kick on the way, plenty of leg and off
41:28
Speaker 1: to the right. I believe again was that one believe
41:31
Speaker 1: that one was wide right? Still not a beautiful vantage
41:34
Speaker 1: point of it.
41:35
Speaker 3: But anybody's guess from this right.
41:37
Speaker 1: Anybody's guests now is what is the worst booth in
41:41
Speaker 1: the NFL for judging kicks?
41:44
Speaker 5: Because you have to someone go on the monitor. But
41:46
Speaker 5: there are some burutal locations they pin you.
41:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, when they put you in the corner of the
41:52
Speaker 2: end zone as we were in Pittsburgh, that's a hard
41:55
Speaker 2: view whether you've got a better chance on the kick
41:58
Speaker 2: that's away from you than you do on the one
42:01
Speaker 2: that's right in front of you half the time.
42:03
Speaker 1: Now there's some I know, Arizona, I feel like it is.
42:05
Speaker 1: There's a difficult spot too, because you're you're low, you're
42:10
Speaker 1: in the corner of the end zone, but as the
42:12
Speaker 1: stands are constructed, you're far away from the playing surface.
42:15
Speaker 1: Oh so you're basically pushed all the way back and
42:17
Speaker 1: the effort. Yeah, that's a tough, tough spot to be in.
42:19
Speaker 1: So now the Packers will roll into some special teams
42:22
Speaker 1: period in front of us and take a quick break,
42:26
Speaker 1: a quick breather from the full team portions. But that
42:29
Speaker 1: was a hot and heavy first hour.
