Latest / Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast / The DiCecco Daily: Detailing Birds Personnel Moves On First Day Of Bye Week, Usage Of Dallas Goedert
Transcript
- 0:10Speaker 1: Hey, what's going on everybody? Welcome into this edition of
- 0:12Speaker 1: the check Odaily. It's Andrew Dechecko from Inside the Birds
- 0:16Speaker 1: dot Com. The bye week started today Monday, but I
- 0:21Speaker 1: am going to continue to put out a handful of
- 0:23Speaker 1: podcast this week, and I guess we'll start with the
- 0:28Speaker 1: news from Monday where the Eagles announced they've released cornerback
- 0:32Speaker 1: Parry Nickerson from the active roster. He is he's not
- 0:37Speaker 1: subjected to waivers, he's a vested veteran. And also released
- 0:42Speaker 1: is defensive end Titus Leo from the practice squad. So
- 0:45Speaker 1: that seems to be a corresponding move to get Parry
- 0:49Speaker 1: Nickerson back on the practice squad. So let's think about
- 0:52Speaker 1: this for a second. Parry Nickerson appeared in five games
- 0:55Speaker 1: for the Eagles, twelve snaps on defense, sixty on special teams.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Made a nice play late in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game.
- 1:03Speaker 1: But the Eagles have some decisions to make here at
- 1:06Speaker 1: the back end of the roster, because you have to
- 1:09Speaker 1: think in the coming week or weeks, you'll have Noan Smith,
- 1:13Speaker 1: Jacoreyan Bennett, and Brandon Graham that need to be activated
- 1:17Speaker 1: and placed on the active roster. So places are slots
- 1:21Speaker 1: are going to be at a premium here. So the
- 1:25Speaker 1: way that I look at it is Parry Nickerson is
- 1:29Speaker 1: sort of a casualty, if you will, due to the
- 1:33Speaker 1: cornerback room getting healthy, and they're going to get Dori
- 1:37Speaker 1: Jackson back from the concussion that he sustained. They're going
- 1:41Speaker 1: to get Jacoreyan Bennett back, and they're going to be
- 1:44Speaker 1: a little bit more at full strength. Mac McWilliams hasn't
- 1:47Speaker 1: played a ton, but he's a rookie fifth round pick
- 1:49Speaker 1: who they're going to want to keep developing. So he's
- 1:52Speaker 1: going to be stashed and be a part of that group.
- 1:55Speaker 1: But I'm curious to see which direction the Eagles go
- 1:58Speaker 1: with the other two spots to create room for Nolan
- 2:02Speaker 1: Smith and Brandon Graham. Just some of my Monday musings here.
- 2:07Speaker 1: I also wanted to talk a second about the usage
- 2:09Speaker 1: of Dallas Goddard because the Eagles have found sort of
- 2:14Speaker 1: a weapon that's been underutilized under Nick Sirianni in my estimation,
- 2:18Speaker 1: because Dallas Goddard at whatever he is, six', five he's
- 2:23Speaker 1: the eagles best blocker at the. Position but he AND
- 2:26Speaker 1: i guess a lot of it has to do with,
- 2:28Speaker 1: health but he hasn't necessarily been featured as prominently as
- 2:32Speaker 1: one might think for someone of his. Caliber and right
- 2:36Speaker 1: now what you're seeing from The Philadelphia eagles is that
- 2:38Speaker 1: they're finding ways to get him incorporated into the, offense
- 2:43Speaker 1: especially in the red. Zone but this is something that
- 2:46Speaker 1: if you go back to training camp any of my
- 2:47Speaker 1: observations or reporting on, that it aligns with the connection
- 2:52Speaker 1: That jaywen And Dallas goddard. Had he probably received more
- 2:57Speaker 1: targets than any. Player you could Put Johan dotson up
- 2:59Speaker 1: there with that as. Well and The eagles And Kevin
- 3:03Speaker 1: patullo are maximizing Godter it's ability to create space over
- 3:09Speaker 1: the middle of the, field pick up yards after they
- 3:11Speaker 1: catch in the red, zone running plays off the push,
- 3:13Speaker 1: play where he's been the beneficiary of a couple shovel
- 3:16Speaker 1: type of. Plays he has seven touchdowns right now and
- 3:20Speaker 1: just seven.
- 3:21Speaker 2: Games, HEY i still like a good night, out But

- 4:50Speaker 1: Off SO i mean he's already at a career. High
- 4:54Speaker 1: he hasn't had more than five in any, season AND
- 4:56Speaker 1: i think when he had five that goes back to twenty.
- 4:59Speaker 1: Nineteen but if you can remember back to the offseason
- 5:03Speaker 1: where there were questions about The eagles and whether or
- 5:05Speaker 1: not they would Keep Dallas. Goddard BUT i was of
- 5:08Speaker 1: the belief that it was almost a necessity one because
- 5:12Speaker 1: there were no obvious answers to replace him on the
- 5:14Speaker 1: fifty three In Grant Kyl. Kata at the, Time harris
- 5:17Speaker 1: And bryant And Kylon grantson were nice depth, pieces at
- 5:21Speaker 1: least on the, surface but never really suggested that they
- 5:25Speaker 1: could be starters at this, level certainly not replicate What
- 5:30Speaker 1: Dallas godder can. Do and so it felt to me
- 5:33Speaker 1: that it was almost a necessity that The eagles And
- 5:35Speaker 1: Dallas goddard were able to come to some sort of an.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Agreement they, Did they brought him. Back this felt like
- 5:40Speaker 1: it could be the final year and it very well,
- 5:42Speaker 1: maybe But Dallas goddters putting together his best, season most impressive,
- 5:47Speaker 1: season and he's really had to when the passing game
- 5:50Speaker 1: hasn't looked as it should given the talent that they.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Have Dallas goddard's normally been a player who's been unaffected
- 5:58Speaker 1: by this this, season always coming up with timely, catches
- 6:02Speaker 1: finding the end, zone being that security blanket For Jalen.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Hurts AND i do believe that he's a player that's
- 6:09Speaker 1: going to continue to fuel this offense moving. Forward, now
- 6:12Speaker 1: WHEN i say, FUEL i mean be one of those
- 6:14Speaker 1: Three Aj, Brown DeVante smith And Dallas goddard and fueling
- 6:19Speaker 1: the past attack because Whenever Nick sirianni says that that's
- 6:22Speaker 1: the direction that the passing attack goes, through obviously it.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Does But goddard's sort of been overshadowed by the other two.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Players but it seems like The eagles are finding ways
- 6:33Speaker 1: to get him involved throughout the game and consistently throughout
- 6:38Speaker 1: The you don't see a game where he goes radio,
- 6:40Speaker 1: silent or a period where he goes radio silent like
- 6:44Speaker 1: he's had like he has in the. Past you're seeing
- 6:46Speaker 1: him be more involved with consistency throughout the, season and
- 6:50Speaker 1: that's something THAT i think that they can build.
- 6:52Speaker 2: On, Hey philly, fans game day is, stressful enough, parking,
- 6:56Speaker 2: traffic long, Lines we've all been, There but when it
- 6:59Speaker 2: comes to your, Cannabis Camden apothecary makes it. Easy this

- 7:46Speaker 2: cannabis great, prices and an experience made For philly fans
- 7:50Speaker 2: twenty one and.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Up another element THAT i think The eagles can build
- 7:55Speaker 1: on offensively is the brushing, attack and they seem to
- 7:58Speaker 1: have found something there in running Back Tank bigsby and
- 8:03Speaker 1: Complementing Saquon barkley they may. Have they just may have
- 8:06Speaker 1: a two headed rushing. Attack they both are aggressive between
- 8:11Speaker 1: the tackle type of. Runners, obviously everyone knows What Saquon
- 8:14Speaker 1: barkley's capable. Of he's a dynamic. Talent they can do at.
- 8:16Speaker 1: All But biggsby impressed me with his cutting, ability his
- 8:22Speaker 1: slashing style making creating a HOLE i Think brett's. Hoath
- 8:26Speaker 1: after the, game AS i was standing there when asked
- 8:29Speaker 1: about tank biggs we talked about a twelve yard run
- 8:31Speaker 1: that he had that The eagles didn't necessarily block up,
- 8:34Speaker 1: well But bigsby was able to kind of pick a
- 8:39Speaker 1: hole and hit and hit the hole and make his own,
- 8:42Speaker 1: block As brett, said and as an offensive lineman he said,
- 8:46Speaker 1: that you, know you say to, yourself that's a guy
- 8:48Speaker 1: we'll fight. For BUT i was impressed With. Bigsby nine
- 8:52Speaker 1: carries one hundred and four. Yards when he was, signed
- 8:55Speaker 1: he was billed as the kick. Returner that was something
- 8:58Speaker 1: THAT i was always a little skeptical. Of you don't
- 9:01Speaker 1: trade a fifth and a six round pick to acquire
- 9:04Speaker 1: someone that, young who with that kind of draft, pedigree
- 9:08Speaker 1: and solely have him return kicks and not have bigger
- 9:12Speaker 1: plans for. Him it was the appeal of having another
- 9:15Speaker 1: year on his rookie. Deal looking beyond, that he will
- 9:19Speaker 1: be a cost effective depth piece next season Behind Sakwon
- 9:23Speaker 1: barkley With Will. Shipley and it was very apparent early
- 9:27Speaker 1: on That Tank bigsby was not a natural kick. Returner
- 9:30Speaker 1: he had only returned eleven career kicks prior to joining The,
- 9:33Speaker 1: eagles and once that was apparent that that wasn't going
- 9:37Speaker 1: to be an ideal role for. Him you know that
- 9:41Speaker 1: he's proven that he can carry the football and be
- 9:44Speaker 1: an effective piece in a. Backfield AND i, mean this
- 9:47Speaker 1: is a guy who ran for seven hundred and sixty
- 9:49Speaker 1: plus yards last season for The, jaguars and it seems
- 9:54Speaker 1: like he's becoming more comfortable in the, system the blocking,
- 9:57Speaker 1: schemes what's being asked of him, offensively AND i think
- 10:00Speaker 1: that that all manifested really the last two, weeks but
- 10:03Speaker 1: Particularly sunday afternoon against The, giants where he was able
- 10:06Speaker 1: to kind of lighten the load For Saquon barkley and
- 10:09Speaker 1: offer a glimpse as to what that backfield might look.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Like i've had some really good conversations With tank over
- 10:15Speaker 1: the past. MONTH i think he's a really charismatic and
- 10:18Speaker 1: interesting guy who will do whatever it, takes whatever's asked of,
- 10:22Speaker 1: him and doesn't, complain and he just wants to help
- 10:25Speaker 1: contribute to a win at any. MOMENT i actually wrote
- 10:30Speaker 1: a story about. HIM i think it was maybe leading
- 10:36Speaker 1: up to The vikings, game WHERE i talked to him
- 10:37Speaker 1: about the kickoff returns and he was very, accountable talked
- 10:41Speaker 1: about what he needs to do and What Michael clay's
- 10:44Speaker 1: coaching points. Were off of, that the communication piece that
- 10:48Speaker 1: goes into. It i've just had a really, good insightful
- 10:52Speaker 1: conversation with him AND i learned a. Lot but now
- 10:54Speaker 1: you're seeing what he's more ideally suited, for and that
- 10:57Speaker 1: is to carry the football and be a much more
- 11:00Speaker 1: more prominent. Piece it was just one, game BUT i
- 11:02Speaker 1: certainly think that that's something that The eagles can build.
- 11:04Speaker 1: On so they have two pieces there that kind of
- 11:07Speaker 1: going into the. Season, Well bigsby wasn't even, here but,
- 11:10Speaker 1: maybe AS i, guess a better way to frame this
- 11:13Speaker 1: would be going into the bye, week you now have
- 11:16Speaker 1: two other pieces that have sort of made their mark
- 11:20Speaker 1: this season to add to the complement of players that
- 11:22Speaker 1: they already. Had And Dallas GODDARDS i, mean he's already
- 11:26Speaker 1: made his mark here In, philadelphia but you're seeing him
- 11:29Speaker 1: be a much more integral piece to the. Offense and
- 11:32Speaker 1: Then Tank bigsby now gives, you all of a, sudden
- 11:35Speaker 1: another formidable piece to that. Backfield that's going to be
- 11:40Speaker 1: that change. Up AND i know that going into the,
- 11:43Speaker 1: season some thought that that might be Aj. Dillon there
- 11:45Speaker 1: was a time in training camp where it looked like
- 11:47Speaker 1: it was going to be Will. SHIPLEY i think he
- 11:49Speaker 1: should be their third down to back there two minute
- 11:53Speaker 1: and four minute running, back AND i believe that will.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Remain but they now have someone In Tank bigsby who
- 11:59Speaker 1: can come On Saquon. Barkley And i'm curious to see
- 12:02Speaker 1: coming out of the bye week if they look at
- 12:04Speaker 1: That giants game as almost a blueprint or a recipe
- 12:07Speaker 1: for success to move forward with, that and you see
- 12:11Speaker 1: them maybe allocate five eight carries a game For Tank
- 12:16Speaker 1: bigsby Starting week ten against The Green Bay packers On november.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Tenth just some of my bye week thoughts here on A.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Monday this has been To czech, O'dally I'm Andrew toiceco
- 12:27Speaker 1: AND i will catch you on the next. One
