| 0:00.0 | A car crash causing nimble, pliable, explosive athlete that wants to knock the face mask off your helmet. |
| 0:07.7 | He's the son of Jeremiah Trotter and he plays like pops. |
| 0:10.7 | There's room to grow in his coverage processing. |
| 0:13.6 | But again, just 20 years old. |
| 0:15.4 | I am in love with this player. |

| 0:23.8 | What is up, Dolf fans, and welcome to the draft time podcast on today's show. |
| 0:29.3 | We are back to the capsules. Linebackers coming up here. We've got an all pro in-house. |
