again based board cardboard create depth draft drafting fill filled name next options pick piece players putting soon spot start taking truly year
You can?t create players. You have to draft the board based on what your options are. As soon as you start taking players truly based on need, if they can?t fill that need, then you have to come back the next year or the next pick and you?re drafting again for the same spot and you haven?t filled anything other than putting a name on a piece of cardboard and putting it up on the depth chart.
best game
We'll have to play our best game on Sunday.
bit either moves normal practice somewhere start
We'll have to either make the roster moves and then start the preparations, or start the preparations and then have the roster moves somewhere intermingled in there a little bit with what would be our normal practice week.
ball hard plays win
We didn't make the plays we need to win. There's not much more to say. It's hard to win when you give the ball away.
ability ben good guy obviously reach receiver tall target throw tight type
Ben can run. He's not a (wide) receiver, but he's got that receiver type of ability for a tight end. He's obviously a big target. That's always something that the quarterback likes, is a tall guy that has a good reach and is just a big target to throw to.

agency developing fifteen free interest opportunity player sooner sure system
Fifteen years ago, it wouldn't have been the case. When you don't have free agency and all of that, then you can keep the player in your system and keep developing him and keep him as long as you want. Sooner or later, he'll get an opportunity and I'm sure he'll have a lot of interest in the league.
bit ongoing team
(Finding a team's identity) is probably an ongoing process. We're a little bit of a team in transition.
behind everybody front guys leverage lose penalties side trying
Everybody that is covering, once they get behind the blocker, then they lose leverage on the guys that they're trying to block. The penalties aren't when they're in front of them. The penalties are when they're behind them or they're on the side of them.
dresses minutes player ready
Every player that dresses for the game, I've told them to be ready to go for 60 minutes just like it's a regular-season game.
nfl season seems single turned year
Every season undergoes changes. I've been in the NFL over 30 years and it has been like that every single year in one way or another. Sometimes when it seems like we've had the most changes, those have turned out to be some of the better years.
situation takes three
Every situation is independent. It takes two parties, or three to a point, to make a deal, and when that happens, we have one, and if it doesn't, we don't.
beat leverage outside
As the defender, if I have outside leverage on you and then I get beat outside, then that's really a problem.
ball caught extremely good nice pass team tom
Tom did a nice job. He did an outstanding job. I thought it was good team play, pass protection, (the) receivers. I thought that the receivers caught the ball extremely well (Sunday).
