Hour 2, Elliot Shurbarks, James Seltzer with you.

0:37.1

I want to get to a bunch of calls this hour first.

0:39.3

Elliot, you had teased a little bit ago. Yeah. Something unexpected that you saw it down in practice today. Lay it on us.

0:47.4

So maybe after Thursday night, it shouldn't be unexpected, but I was shocked today when I saw Darius Cooper getting first team reps, not just once, not just twice, but like throughout practice. Wow. So there is, was he in the slot? Was he? He was lining up outside. He had one rep where he lined up against Quinyon. I think I did see him in the slot one time. Now, I will say, like, Cooks didn't practice. AJ's not practicing. Now, he's not definitely ahead of Elijah Cooks, but Elijah Cook's not being out there. Could have been part of the reason. Regardless, Darius Cooper coming off of that big game on Thursday night, was with the first team offense. They got targets in practice. There was one part of practice where they put all the backups on one field, all the starters on the other, and Darius was with the starters. So this is somebody that coming into camp, I thought was an extreme long shot to make the roster. He's been awesome almost every day in camp. We all saw on Thursday night what he can be. I'm all in on Darius Cooper. I think this guy has shown he is an NFL player. I think Degel should keep him. And the fact that he got first round reps today shows they're seriously considering doing it. So definitely stock up big time on Darius Cooper. Yeah, he was awesome on Thursday night. He definitely flashed. You had pointed him out prior to the game to me and on the morning show. And yeah, Darius Cooper, I really like him. We'll see what happens. And I will say too that today, where we were positioned on the practice field, we got to be closer to him than normal, I would say. He is bigger than I'm probably giving him credit for. Like, especially with the shoulder pads on and the cleats. I think of him as an undersized regger type guy. I don't know what the measurables are compared to rigor, but he looks bigger than regar to me. So I was impressed by him today. I thought he had a good day. 215-9-2-94-94. Darius Cooper, obviously one of the stars on Thursday night. Your observations from Thursday night, the Tanner McKee thing, what would you trade him for if you'd trade him at all?

2:37.2

And the defense, you'd all concerned after the performance Thursday night.

2:38.9

Elliot, a little concern.

2:41.3

They're over-reliant on stars like Jalen Carter.

2:43.9

I think that is the reason to believe.

2:45.7

215-9-29-494.

2:48.1
