00:00but i have to admit that i was underwhelmed and i did admit that i was underwhelmed by free agency
00:05and they didn't go out and you know get themselves the kind of thing that a team in
00:09this position with a quarterback on a rookie contract might get how about a big time pass
00:15rusher to put you over the top uh things like that did not go out and do that did not
00:20really
00:21solve left tackle nope you are left trusting braxton jones and now having cut karan amagaji
00:28and jedrick wills you're moving on to the next thing so i was underwhelmed by free agency and i
00:34was a little underwhelmed by the draft in terms of filling the immediate perceived needs other than
00:40safety and i was able to coerce myself in terms of the draft and see what ben johnson's vision is
00:45and what he wants and what he needs and zavion thomas being good the other night helps and you
00:52know uh logan jones is going to be really important to this team and you got to go get a
00:56center when
00:56all that stuff so i'm okay but i don't think the roster is better than it was at the end
01:01of last
01:01year i have to sit here and admit that and that doesn't feel real good in a very very intense
01:06nfc
01:06north to have to admit to myself that no i don't think this roster is better i'll agree but i'm
01:11i'll
01:11pause and push back and say is is it worse like and if it is is this like how what's
01:17the step back
01:18like how how much worse is it than it was at the end of last year because i think i'm
01:24really
01:25intrigued by the white the white sex jesus the bears linebacking core i really like the devin bush
01:31is flying around all preseason ah love him i i go back and i i still wonder so devin bush
01:38and
01:39demarco jackson they're flying all over the place the speed to me i like that i that's the that's the
01:45one group on defense that i'm i i like a lot that feels better than tremaine edmonds and tj edwards
01:51and or demarco jackson filling in and whatever else they were doing tj still there and they just
01:57cut jack sanborn the other day that might be a procedural move as we find out but at that back
02:02four i liked a lot more last year like nashon right and here here's here's what makes it tough
02:08for me loved kevin byard inside and out on the field and in the room right that one feels like
02:15a miss to
02:15me it just does i is he going to lead the league in interceptions again this year the probability
02:20says no but the guy stayed healthy and flew all over the football field was a leader of that defense
02:26100 and it was a one-year deal nashon right one-year deal jaquan brisker one-year deal and i
02:33look at the
02:33back four right now we got thenaman kobe bryant you couldn't have you couldn't have planned for an
02:38injury i don't think it's quite as easy an answer for me if kobe bryant's healthy and if kyler
02:44gordon was available or interested
