and Oh, Well, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, Matthew Collar here and joining me on the show as we kick off training camp positional

0:36.9

previews, Andrew Kramer of the Star Tribune.

0:40.1

And I said yesterday on the show, Andrew, that I had no idea even what position we were going to talk about because I was leaving it up to you. But you being a polite mid-Westerner were like, no, you pick. And I was like, no, you pick. And I was like, no, you have the have the last donut no let's cut it in half so we

0:55.8

have decided on a position though man how are you are you excited for training

1:00.0

camp we're just a couple days away here I I'm incredibly excited. I'm very decisive on how excited I am and it's incredibly.

1:06.7

There's no four-way stop, Minnesota four-way stop we're going to make on this one.

1:11.2

I have to say, I do want to thank the people in Minnesota who decided on

1:15.2

roundabouts but I also think that they should come with instructions like

1:19.1

every car that you buy should have like in the car you'll open up the instructions here's how to go through a

1:26.7

1:56.7

2:00.8

of the four stop four way stops because Minnesnesotans could wave stop waving people by.

2:04.8

Anyway, I like the society and actually this is...

2:08.8

Roundabouts were the position group we chose to talk about today.

2:12.0

Yes, that's right.

2:14.0

I don't even know how we got there, but just last night I almost got hit in a roundabout

2:19.0

and it's on my mind.

2:21.0

So actually, safety's and lineb linebackers and I pair them together because

2:25.9

linebackers essentially are slightly beefier safeties. Although I

2:30.3

remember when we walked out to I think it was rookie mini camp and saw Brian Asamola and I was just like I don't think that my

2:37.3

LaVon Kirkland's are ever coming back. I mean even think about even like Chad Greenway would be a monster sized linebacker at this point.
