| 0:00.0 | Inside the Birds is back. What's going on, everybody, Jeff Mosher, Adam Kaplan. And Adam, today is the night or this morning is the morning, whatever you're listening to, that you and I are going to wrap up the positional primary that we've been doing |
| 0:24.4 | for the last two weeks. We're going to go over the entire secondary, the defensive backs, |
| 0:29.8 | both corners, safeties, and that's a really big area of development or lack thereof that we're going to talk about |
| 0:39.1 | over the past few years. |
