Get some questions for later on in the week as pads come on.

Monday pads are coming on.

Crock, are you excited?

I think like this is when there's only been what four or five practices to ramp up

period they're installing some things working on RPOs you know I think it's too

We got to see the pads come on first before you can decide anything, right?

I think you see pre-season before you can kind of decide that, right?

for you know especially like young players it is one thing to kind of do it in a

watching you know people on TV are, your family back home is watching,

that's a whole different ballgame there.

And you're a 6-2 corner, and I'm not trying to say you're slow or anything, but there's probably some

wide receivers that might have had a ton of speed maybe little guys right but

then you put pads on and then you start getting your hands on them you make life a lot more difficult

for them right yeah definitely is able to it's easier to kind of get underneath the pads in your in your press. Now you can't hold them, but if you can get under there and control you can control them a little bit more and bring your offhand. So it's always tough, you know, especially for the quicker guys,
