got a big mother effer here. Okay. We got a big tight end,
Jalen wide. Am I right? Am I saying that right? First?
I just want to make sure I didn't mess that up, Texas, A & M tight
end. Okay. Tremendous spot sighs. What do you 6565
265
about 2257?
257 scissors, cut a few pounds so you can be a little faster
in the morning. Yeah, right. No, not about went to Texas
A & M, you know, set other school in Texas, not cover some yellow
section.
But no phenomenal career. Really. Thank you.
And really, you're a specimen. So, the first I've just talked
about, you know, the experience so far being here at
the combine what it's been. Like,
I loved it
so far. When I first before I came here, I was a little
nervous about interviewing stuff like that. But as I've
gone grown to know, some of the scouts and
talk to him and just
get my feet in the water. It's been amazing. Amazing
experience, good. They're good people here for the most part.
That's for sure. You've always been a huge NFL fan. I mean
growing up. Who's your who's your squad? Oh,
Just Patriots and Squad. Okay,
and then so your favorite tight end
Gronk.
Well, yeah, that's that's fitting. I mean, I literally
was just showing the highlights of some of your game to one of
our producers here and I was like, yeah, this guy's big is
gotta, you know, some of this Gronk issue.
Certainly. So that's the guy. You kind of model your game
after mmm. Yeah. All right, blocking you like, blocking as
much as you like, catching the ball. I do. I do. And it's
something that's needed right at this point that my position,
right? Anything like about your game, you know, tight end
wise where you just go. Okay. I know you've been
in Jimbo Fisher, you learned a lot there. It's a good system.
But what about your game to you? Look at you, just go.
I gotta get better at this than the NFL.
I would say finishing blocks. I'm good at the point of attack,
but I when I'm driving, I get I get a little bit too high.
I'll get a little bit too hard. My feet would come together. So
I just got to work on staying low, finishing blocks and just
keep your legs. Moving the Catholic. Keep your keep
everything. Moving you, get, you get into that little. Like,
all right, I'm big. I just keep my move. You little now. Just
lean on. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I want to, I want to
I want to demolish guys in the league. I don't want.
Cover em up that allows. That's the that's the way to say.
That's right. All right. So like you got like guys, I'm
first up. We hit grunk. Alright, so now give me a d end
or outside linebacker that you just go. You got respect for
course that you just go. Man. I can't wait to
line up across that guy
and see what he's got.
Miles, of course,
of, on Von Miller. Yeah. So I'm just saying every Cherry. Did
guys kiss? Asses guy is already. Put those guys in
the league, you know? Yeah, they're pretty damn good. All right.
Yvonne I like your chances
drop blocking. He's pretty good. The Run game. Yeah.
Miles. I don't know, man. I gotta see it first. I gotta see
it. Sure. Have you got a chance to hang out with Miles Garrett
at all? No, I haven't. And hopefully, I will in the league
when I get there. Yeah,
I've seen Von before I talk to bond on a few occasions
at Spring Game, stuff like that. So he's a really good
guy. Yeah, they're both really good, guys. They certainly seem
like it,
you know, as far as this goes, the combine, you know, big guy
all that you're working out fully tomorrow, right? You
doing everything should be doing everything. I'm so sorry.
On it. You still decide not some of it.
All right? And like, you know,
like number 40s, like what kind of number would, please you not
that I want you to put yourself out there. I know what you
really want. But like, you know, what's a number that
you're
with your size. I mean, for sevenish, we're looking where
you're being a good time, right? I'd be a good time.
You'd be good with that. I'll be good. I'll be good with 47.
What was all? Of course? I want to push for 46, but we're
seven. We wouldn't be bad. No. No, you're certainly nobody
a quest you with how big you are. If we're seven and you, you
look
like you run faster than 47 video here that The most
important thing exactly. What's, what's like the combine
preparation? What's been, the biggest pain in the ass about
it?
What's that one drill or just the
day-to-day? You know, I would say I would say like going to
I never went to Camp when I was a high school. So I never really
run. I never really learned how to run the
40. I just was played football, you know, and
40 something. I really had to focus on this
this process and coming to the combine. So, dark there, starts
and finishes. You need a number one things that were really
focused on.
We'll see how I do. You know, like, tell them like people
that are listen to my podcast and stuff. Like what about
this?
The start? What is it? That makes it so difficult to. I was
there, I've been there with you. It was mine. You know, my
kryptonite as well.
But yeah, what about it? Well, it's
the through the twenty Twenty Yards and 30-yard splits, like,
all days. You're going to be in your running form.
Starts. Got to be explosive, got to gain a lot of God. When
he went to get his long stride, has gained a lot of ground and
you automatically go into your running form.
And then the Last 30 and 40 yards. You that's that's all
strength. You have, you have to power through that and you've
got to stay relaxed but also power through it.
You know, what? You want to tense up too much. Yeah, right.
You wanna be able to say keep those muscles? Still relaxed
and rubberband dish. The exact year exploding. They're
all right. So like
give me some light exercise, like what are you? What are you
doing to train to do those things? But I know you're
practicing the actual starts but
like, what are some like lifting exercise you've been
doing like heavy power, cleans squats, things like that, look
like that. But a lot of know, definitely it would help to do
a lot of little things.
Glue ham raises.
A lot of hamstring workouts to build up that hamstring. So
the 30 40 yards would be, you know, you power through it easier.
Yeah. No I'm saying, yeah, right. All right. So you're
going to do 225 you're going to do that
whole thing to their
I most likely won't do the 225 only way to approach a to do
that. Okay. Yeah, buy yourself some more time. You got some
long damn arms, dude.
Easy for you. Yeah, definitely. All right, favorite quarterback
and football, like, who's the one guy? You just met Dan?
I could go play for that team and I'm Gonna Catch. I know you
like a lot of them. Well, my favorite quarterback ever. He
just left, which was depressed.
Seeing Tom Brady, but
of course the great ones Pat Mahomes their car. Yeah,
Stafford.
Just great quarterbacks in the league. Lamar Jackson stuff
like that. Do you go deep enough in this time of the year
to view like the team? And I know you're gonna be happy with
whoever you get drafted by the NFL. It's awesome. Right? But
like, do you go
at this point? And look at teams and go? Oh, wait. Like
they could use me
something sometimes. Yeah.
I've really got gone down to a teenager. Like a little they
can use me. I know sometimes some teams in the league.
Neither tied in, right? Need, or need some help outside in
and
that's what I play. So,
you're aware of the teams that know how to utilize the tight
end to act. Leave you alone. That's where you. So, you,
that's what you look at. Just go, they know how to use that
gun out of use that side and they know how to. Yeah,
exactly. Yeah, no doubt about it. All right. So, you know,
for like numbers, we're going to wearing in the
NFL, you to stick with the college College. You were 85 85,
you're going 85 all the way. I want to go. 85 all the way if
I can, but like why not be 87 like grunk?
Because I'm I want to be belittled, every I want to be
me, you know,
you know,
I just I specially still watch as growing up. Yeah, you know
and
he always says something like like there's three things
certain in life death taxes and 85 is always gonna get open.
And ever since then I was, I wanted number eight. If that's
what you wanted, you any five. Okay? All right. All right. So,
you know, I would
first off, let's have a little fun with our College because
I used to whoop your school's at
the regular. All right, just so you know.
I won my last three against you guys, right? You guys are
certainly in a different class. But like you grew up in Texas.
Yeah, aren't you like a little disappointed that like you guys
don't fight? We don't pay each other anymore. I wish we would.
I wish we could play each other every year. Yeah, which would
be like a rivalry game that just used
to be that. Oh, it would be so good. Be crazy. I mean, that's,
it is Thanksgiving the day after Thanksgiving. When I grew
up, it was Texas, Texas A & M and we're those the games I played
in. Yeah,
so it was really cool to be a part of but yeah, it's a Texas
kid. You got to be like, what the hell? Yeah, and especially
right now because you guys are better than us here. Exactly
Kumari. Yeah,
I feel like I feel like, yeah, we're
going to play the great game and I thought, I could be
a great game against us and everybody from every part of
Texas will come to watch the game. Yeah. Amazing game.
Did you ever think about going there? Where you close what you
think? Yeah. Yeah,
they didn't they didn't really were they recruited me but they
didn't offer me a scholarship. What's? Yeah, I know so
it is what it is, honestly. Oh, yeah, it's stupid. Is
that utilize the tide in that much as well, especially in
the spread bullcrap and directly so that pisses me off.
I gotta lie Dan we're Texas and we can't run the ball or
top-end running back.
I'll be rooting for you though, man. Yes, sir. Thank you. Good
luck with everything, kick some ass. All right, big tight end,
Texas A & M not Texas, Texas A & M. Jalen wide, Meyer is here. Good
luck to you because I thank you.
Thank you so much.
