Bucky Brooks Response to Josh Allen Signing a Long-Term Deal | Huddle Up · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Welcome into the Huddle Up Podcast. Today is Wednesday, April tenth, JP, Shadrick,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: don Ozer, and Jacksonville from the Miller Electric Center in
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: the Hundai Studios. Bucky Brooks is out in Los Angeles
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: and we've got a lot to get to today. First
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: of all, it's Josh Allen and that's the big news
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: coming out of Wednesday. Officially, the Taguars have agreed to
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: a multi year deal with Josh Allen, the Jaguars outside linebacker,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: reportedly five years, one hundred and fifty million dollars, including
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: eighty eight million dollars guaranteed. Bucky. That bill came to
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: when he put up the big numbers last year, and
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: thirty million a year for Josh Allen.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Wow, the bag is big and kind of good for
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: He was forced to better himself.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: He had to play on approved situation and he absolutely
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: proved it seventeen and a half sacks.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: He is a great player.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: But he's even more impressive in terms of how he
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: is in and around the locker room. Great person, great character,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: great leadership abilities, has the work ethic that you want,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: and then you put the performance into production. This had
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: to get done. I think it's a great sign that
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: the Jaguars were able to get it done, so it's
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: not a distraction as we head into the off season program.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Kudos to him, he made it happen. Kudos to management
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: for being able to get it done.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And my thought on these, Bucky is always, you know,
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: you can't guarantee numbers moving.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: Forward, right, like especially sacks.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: Sometimes they can be circumstantials, and he's doing he has
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: many sacks because maybe a quarterback didn't run out of
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: bounds when he ran out of bounds the year before.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: But to me, Josh is a safe signing, as safe
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: as you can be when you're essentially risking eighty eight
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: million guaranteed, you know. And I'm wondering if as next
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: personnel guy, he's been around GMS more than I have.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: I think GM's always liked a signing where they can
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: put their head on the pillow the next night and
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: not worry about the guy's work ethic, not worried about approach,
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: not worried about what kind of player the guy is
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: going to want to be, just because he got paid.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: And to me, Josh feels like I don't think Trent
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: Balky's gonna worry that Josh Allen is going to lose
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: his edge.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: No, I think that's a safe assessment because he's been
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: worried the right way. He hasn't shown any signs of
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: being a guy that would take time off, that he
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: will be a slacker or he.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Would get complacent.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Now that he has the money, I think, if anything,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: it would push him to set bigger and better goals
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: and dreams for himself and for the team.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: He understands what he has to do.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: He understands what the expectations would be, not only with
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: him being a first former first round pick, but now
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: being one of the top pay players in the National
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Football League. The expectation is that he's going to be
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: able to dominate, and whether that comes up in the numbers,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: it needs to show up each and every week in
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: terms of just his presence. He has to be impactful
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: in terms of creating opportunities for himself or for others
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: to make plays.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: But that's what he's always done since he's been in Jacksonville.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: But it's a new kind of pressure, Buck.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's before you're start of going after it,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: betting on yourself now, you know, sacks can come in bunches.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Even Josh just came in bunches last year. But I
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: think he had three or four, three or four different
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: games where he had two or three sacks. There can
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: be droughts, and fans are going to be bothered by
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: the droughts more so there's definitely that element to me
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: that you definitely want to go ahead and sign the
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: deal because it's good to have an eighty eight million,
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: but it's it's a new kind of expectation. Now every
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: game without a sack is what happened to Josh Allen,
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: you know, even though football people sort of know what happened.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: But I think Josh can deal with that sort of thing.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: Bucky, Yeah, No, it is a different it's a different deal.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: It's a different set of you know, expectations, different level
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: of pressure. But he just came through probably the most
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: pressurized environment that he could be in, having to play
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: last year under approved deal, approved situation where he had
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: to get his money based on how he performed. He
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: proved it, and so I think you increased and become
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: more comfortable in those situations when that happens. But you're right, John,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: each and every week, everyone is gonna go right to
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: the box score.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: They're gonna look and see what.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: He did in terms of what numbers did he put up,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: How many sacks did you have? How many tackles for
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: lost force, fumbles, big plays? How he has to deliver.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: But that's okay. I think in a perfect world, when
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: you have a team that has not only playoff aspirations
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: but title hopes, you have to have a handful of
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: people that carry that kind of pressure. And so Josh
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Allen would be the one player on defense who has that,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: and Trevor Lawrence would be the one player on offense.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Who has to carry those expectations.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Speaking of bags, maybe that'll come at some point down
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the line for the quarterback as well. This is a
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: lettle up podcast. Well, think about the road that Josh
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Allen has taken to get to this point from You know,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: he was down in Alabama in high school for three
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: years as a receiver, went back to New Jersey, finished
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: his high school career there and wasn't really recruited highly
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: star Yeah, I think, yeah, he was gonna go to Monmouth,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: like an FCS school, and then Kentucky had some decommitments
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: and they got a sniff about him and decided to
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: bring him to Lexington. Of course, he developed and grew
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: into one of the great Kentucky defensive players of all
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: time and a first round pick, but not that long ago,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: he was just a lanky wide receiver as a sophomore
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: and junior in high school. And just to see that
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: road to now John for a guy that we all
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: like in a door, he's great in the building. To
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: see this actually come through to fruition is something special.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and I thank you.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Guys have both been around him, and probably a lot
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: of people listening to this have been around him because
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: he's a guy who doesn't mind making himself accessible to
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: fans when the opportunity is correct. Look, you don't pay
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: a guy to be a good guy, but it certainly
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: helps when you like guys in your franchise who when
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: you've paid them this kind of money, they walk in
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: the building and you just sort of instinctively know, Hey,
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: that's one of the core guys, and you not only
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: like him, you respect him. He's he's the kind of
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: person you want to represent your franchise for many many reasons.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: So look, it's a good day, It's a happy day
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: happy or if you're Josh, then for the rest of us.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: But you know Josh is buying JP.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure he is. I'm sure he's happy about that.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Bucky is what it is, and you need those. We've
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: had a over the history of this team, actually not
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: just recent history, first round draft picks have not signed
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: second deals. Well, this is a trend going the wrong
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: way in that regard this kind of bucks that all right,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen was drafted here, different general manager got him in,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: but he is a cornerstone piece of a franchise and
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: for years, decades around here, the Jags have not been
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: able to have those pillars of their franchise stick around.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think it's maybe maybe the Josh Allen
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: signing will finally get rid of that quote unquote stigma.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: They didn't draft Evan Ingram, but they paid Evan Ingram.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: It's not really and I'm just thinking from the regime
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: right now, which I would say Trent Doug and sort
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: of the decision makers around him, it's not their fault.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: They didn't draft Evan Ingram and then once they got
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: him here, they paid him. They franchised Cam sort of
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: on a prove it type and then paid him. So
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: they've sort of gotten away from or I shouldn't say
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: away from that, but I have more of a track record.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna pay Trevor at some point. So
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: as much as this regime has been able to control that,
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: I think they've put their money where their mouth is
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: and said we're gonna pay guys that merit being paid.
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: For a long time.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: You know, with maybe the exception of Jalen Ramsey, there
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: weren't that many guys who left where he said, oh
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: they should have paid him. They just really weren't very
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: many guys. So now that they've gotten guys they should pay,
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: they're doing it. And I would anticipate, you know, Trayvon
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: Walker stays on the course that he's on last year
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: a SNDS, there's gonna be more guys to pay, and
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: I don't think they're gonna have have that stigma for
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: much longer, if they even still have it.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Bucky, Yeah, No, I think this goes there's a really
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: good step in the right direction in terms of showing
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: that they will retain their own guys.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: And Devon Hamilton, by the way, got paid. So there's
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: guys that they have paid.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is not a thing where they won't
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: open up the check book.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: It's about making sure that they're paying the right guys.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: And the next guy that we will talk about being
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: in line to be paid will be Trevor Lawrence.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: In some way, shape or form.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: They're gonna have to take care of the franchise quarterback
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: in as we're seeing with the Josh Allen thing. You
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: can prolong it, but the only thing that happens when
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: you prolonged paying your your top guys is it only
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: becomes a bigger price tag. So it may frustrate some
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Jacks fans, but they probably need to be on the
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: front end of paying Trevor Lawrence, then on the back end,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: because the number could be astronomical if you continue to
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: wait on him.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: Be pretty astronomical anyway.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Yes, relatives too, Yeah, but they're all astronomical.
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think, like I say, I think that's
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: next to me. The uh, you know, the rookies obviously
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: take care of themselves now with the rookie cap. The
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: Josh thing felt like they were going to get it
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: done this offseason because in order to get a deal
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: like Trevor Lawrence, has done. The decks sort of have
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: to be cleared, meaning you have to know a lot
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: of your parameters with the cap. My guess is that
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: may have been some of what it took Josh a
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: while to get done was they had to make sure
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: that what they were paying Josh and the years when
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: they were paying them made sense. The decks feel cleared now, Buck,
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm getting.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: I mean, and.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: You've been inside more than I have, which is none,
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: So maybe you can talk about that a little bit,
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: just sort of now it's about how to structure, and
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: you sort of needed a lot of other stuff to
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: be done and in the books, right.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So now that you have Josh Allen in the books.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: You know what the number is going to be. You
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: know what the number is going to look like over
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: the next few years. It makes it easier to kind
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: of fit in Trevor Lawrence's deal because what you have
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: to do is figure out when does the money go
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: to the big money for Trevor, because then you have
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: to do some salary reductions in other areas to make
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: sure that everyone is salar cap compliant and that you
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: have enough balance on the spreadsheet to be able to Okay,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: who else do we need to pay? Coming down the line?
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: What is going to happen? Though not only with Josh
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Allen's deal, but when Trevor Lawrence is deal in particular.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: The pressure then goes from the front office signing free
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: agents too. You have to start drafting well, because now
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: the bulk of your new talent has to come from
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: the draft. It can't come from outside sources because you
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: have homegrown players really commanding a ton of money, and
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: that makes it hard to then go out in free
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: agency and be major spenders. Your draft department, your scouting
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: department has to really step up their games because the
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: team has to get younger because younger is cheaper, and
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: that allows you to build a team that has some
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: balance with a handful of guys making top, top, top money.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: And you feel like maybe this is the last year
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: or two of being able to sort of get around that, right, Bucky,
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: I mean it's it's once Trevor signed, then you sort
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: of locked into Josh and Trevor's numbers and no balloon.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: I'm assuming they'll balloon.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, six, So that's sort of the last.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: After that, it's going to be three or four guys
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: getting paid and a lot of kids.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so what you probably can do is so with
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: with Trevor Lawrence, you're doing extension. He's entering into his
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: fourth year. Then there's the fifth year option, so you
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: can make whatever that number is compared to that. But
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: three years from now that third season, so you have
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: this year, next year, and then the following year that's
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: when the number goes up.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: So you have two.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Years to get done with it, going to get down
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: with the expensive players maybe on the perimeter, Christian Kirk
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: and those guys, and then you have to reset and
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: kind of recalibrate when Jo when not only Josh, he's
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: big money, gets on the book, and when Trelor Lawrence's
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: taking numb against the book.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: All right, we'll come back in a moment and look
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: ahead to the NFL Draft that players are in the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: building next week as well. This is the Huddle Up Podcast.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to Huddle Up Podcast. Jap Shadwick, John Osier
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: and Bucky Brooks and the twenty twenty four NFL Draft
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: is almost here, but Jaguars will be on the clock
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: at seventeen unless they make a move somewhere else. Unless
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: they're somewhere else join us at the bank, though they'd
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: say April twenty fifth. It's the official Two Bowl Draft Party,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: presented by Donovan Air, Electric and Plumbing. When the party
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: starts at seven o'clock. Tickets to free register today Jaguars
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: dot com slash Draft Party. So the players are back
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: of the building next week. Phase one offseason program, Bucky,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Monday the fifteenth, Strength and conditioning can begin a couple
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: of weeks of that, and then of course we get
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: on a little later into the on field workouts and
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: OTAs and things, but we'll begin having a little more
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: action around here. It feels like early next week and
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: we're only a couple of weeks out now from that draft.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: So what is your latest at number seventeen, Bucky, I don't.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know if there's an official new mockout this
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: week or not.
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: You know, you haven't checked the Crawler.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: I can't remember what edition is the latest, But I
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: think Terry and Arnoll was the guy that I had
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: slotted to go through the Jaguars. And the reason why
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: he would fit is just because of the versatility that
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: he brings to the position. He's a guy that can
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: play outside, but he also can go inside. We talked
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: about the nickel position. We talked about that on last
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: week's pot. We're just talking about how different flavors of nickel,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: big nickel, little nickel, cover nickel, rundown nickel, all of
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: those things can come into play with Terry Arnold has
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: done that. He's done that comfortably at Alabama. He has
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: played some of the star position for Nick Saban while
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: also being outside great personality.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: High IQ just kind of gets it in a major way.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: He's a really good prospect.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: He would certainly be a good pick and good fit
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: if he's available at seventeen.
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: How surprised would you be at this point, Bucky, if
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: it's not corner there. I mean, I guess I've been
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: talking corner at that spot for so long that I've
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: talked myself into saying I'd be stunned. You know, I'd
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: be fine with offensive line because I think any you know,
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: anytime you add premier lineman, you're better in your team.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: I'd be fine with defensive line for the same reason.
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: But I just look at the depth chart. I would
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: just be stunned if it's not a corner at this point,
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: it feels like a need year. I don't know that
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: that's ideal philosophically, but that's what it feels like.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, even if we cast aside the knees, there'd be
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: players that line up to being available at that pick.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: When you look at the money that they've committed to
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: the d line, it's hard to say that he we
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: commit money to Eric Armstead. We just we did Josh Allen.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: We spended a first round pick on Trayvon Walker. Oh
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: guess what we need to go back in the draft
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: and get another one. That would be a hard sale
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: when you think about building the team.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: And you've got Devine and Roy make money too.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: I mean like there's a lot of money right there
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: in the trenches. So I can't imagine that you go there,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: you look at you know, people are talking about wide receiver,
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: But do you really need to spend the first round
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: pick on a wide receiver? Can you get one in
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: the second and third? To me, all signs point to
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: a cornerback, a defensive back being taken off the board there.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: I think there are options that are gonna be available.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: We can talk.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: We just talked about Terry Ouno. There'd be some conversation
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: about a guy like Cooper dejen if he's available. The
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: kid from Iowa who is also a multifaceted, multi dimensional
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: player who's played a bunch of different spots. He could
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: be a guy that can play outside and inside and
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: do a bunch of things. Nate Wiggins will get some consideration.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Little thinner than you, like one hundred and seventy three
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: hundred and seventy five pounds, but the skill set stands out.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: He can play press, he can play off, really versatile
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: in what he does. Kool Ai McKinstry obviously played at Alabama,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: played opposite tiron'no, he was really to cast me out.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Arnold emerged and kind of took some of his shine,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: but another really good player.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: So they're cornerbacks that are available for them.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: I can't wait to kind of pick the brain of
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: the defensive coaches to kind of see how they stacked
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: them and why they were stacked in a certain way.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: We'll know they're commitment to playing bump.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: And run and pressman by the direction in which they
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: go the first first night of draft.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: All right, so we're closing in two weeks away. I'm
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: sure we'll ask you again next week, Bucky.
• 17:50

• 17:55

• 18:27
  Speaker 2: in on the bet that he had to make on himself,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: worked out for him.

• 18:43
  Speaker 2: menu that I'd never let my eyes go towards.
• 18:46
