Speaker 1

Hello, and welcome back to Camping Out with Zach Shelby. It's the podcast where you get all the coverage you would ever want about your commanders and as they go through training camp. I'm back once again to grace your ears and bless your screens with all the content you could ever dream to have. And today I talked to two reporters, Pete Haley from NBC Sports Washington and Kyle Stackpole from CBS Sports. Let's go check out what they

had to say. All right, I think some of y'all know this guy is Kyle Stackpoll who is out working with CBS Forrest mccollins. It's great to see you. First of all, man, I'm very excited when you when you text me, I was like, oh man, we gotta we gotta reunite somehow, some way, because we we bring the best content all the time. Every that's right. That's right. For those who wanted to see two year old content,

go go check out the rundown. But anyway, so you're here for training camp and you know you specialize in the draft. Now, and first of all, what do you think of this draft class of walking had overall? Yeah, I think they had a really good draft class. I was at first maybe a little surprised with the Johan Dotson pick, you know, the middle of the first round some people, most people had him going you know, mid

to late twenties. But I think what he's done in OTAs and coming out here in training camp, he looks really smooth, He's got great hands, and he can just be that guy opposite Terry mclauren. You know, in addition to Curtis Samuel and all of a sudden, Carson Wentz has three pretty great weapons. So I think starting with him is great. I also like Brian Robinson at running back, and with Antonio Gibson nursing a little bit of an

injury right now, he's getting a lot of reps. And it's not he only started for one year at Alabama, but he has so much experience sitting behind Nagy Harris and a lot of those other guys. So I think he comes in here more well equipped to take on these first team reps and really make a name for himself and really create a three headed backfield with j D. McKissick and Gibson. Yeah, I was, you know, I was saying, like Brian Robinson is probably my most favorite draft picks

this entire class. But you bring up Johan Dawson. He looks really really good. Obviously, you know when you were watching you know, grind Alton and some college take you know, you know, editing some things like did you see a lot of those Terry McLaurin s qualities that that's that's something that bring people bring up a lot. Yeah, yeah, definitely. I think he has the like Terry two, he has the combination of you. He's got an elite speed and

he makes a lot of contested catches. But it doesn't seem like it seems like he glides, it doesn't seem like he's he's working real hard when he runs down the field. And I think the fact that they are similar receivers, and now Dotson is going to get a chance to learn from Terry McLaurin, who is just a pros pro. You know, he came in here his rookie year and hit the ground running and now he's what you know, a top six paid receiver in the NFL.

So he can show dots and this is what you have to do day in and day out to get to where I am and to get to being a number one receiver in the NFL. What do you think? You know, you brought up Ryan Robinson, you know, but what about him is so different about AG and JD, who are a lot of pass getcher. This seems like he's a really pure runner in this backfield. Yeah, I mean without mister third and two this year, Peyton Barber, you got he But I think he's going to provide

more than that. He's really going to be someone who he's a downhill runner. I think Rivera for to him as you know, powerful and looking to go downhill. And with the combination of him running between the tackles, then you don't have to put as much wear and tear on AG. You can get him on pitches, get him outside the tackles, get him in the screen game, and then you mix in. There we go. Someone's it's dB Harris getting hype again. But it's just a perfect combination.

It's something Barber couldn't really provide that because he was more of a short short yardist back, whereas I think if Robinson needs to to be a three don back, he can be, but he doesn't have to be. So I think Scott Turner has a lot of weapons to work with and in his third year, I think it's

gonna be big for him. So let's talk about, you know, some players that have been around there on the roster for a little bit longer, and Kim the Fuller has been all over the field today, Specifically, he's had a couple of pvus, he's you know, kind of knocked the balls for a couple of interceptions there for other players to get. What has Ki the Floor been doing so far?

Today's really impressed you. Yeah, I think just the one uh yep PBu we had, I think it was Dammy Brown tipped right into the hands off cal Holcombe, and I just think it's gonna be a big year for him and the secondary, especially with you know, two years ago them having a top three defense and then last year not being able to get off the field on third down and so it was a lot of the same players, so it was kind of you're asking what

was going on? And I think he's he's one of those leaders on the defense, especially in the secondary along with Cam Curl and I think the way they play is really going to impact how the linebackers play, how the how the line plays, and he's going to be a big piece of them getting back to average or above average on the defensive side of the ball. All right, Colin Man, I appreciate you know, always appreciate seeing you. Man.

It's great to see you. All right. So next we have behind our wonderful background of foliage, we have Pete Haley from NBC Sports Washington and Pete, you know, the second day of practice. Even though the defense has really been been coming on strong today, I've been impressed by the defense. I think it's a little bit the the offense is still working out those early camp jitters, the rust,

the chemistry issues. But I mean every corner from William Jackson down to Christian Holmes have been batting balls down. Defensive line is having a great time. I've never heard Montes sweat talk so much. He is loving life out there. So it's definitely been the Defensi's day to day. Yeah, I was gonna talk to you about that because he seemed like he is just he's been really vote. He was a little bit like that last year, but seems

like this year he's like just amping it up even more. Yeah, I'd say maybe with Chase Young out out there, he feels the need to take on the leadership role. I mean, John Allen's relatively quiet. Durn Payne seems to just want to put his head down and get to the quarterback and do it again. But Montes will do that and then let you know about it. I certainly would enjoy playing against him the way he chats, but it's fun

to cover. And I mean he's backing it up by getting into the you know, the quarterback's face, batting balls down too. I mean he's been all over the place early on in a room full of stoic. Can we like, we just got another interception over there during tendro It looks like that is hey, William Bradley King, Yeah, Nobe b K getting an only action. But you know, you know, you bring up sweat again and remember Stoic, you know,

deep the deep of the lineman. He is the one energetic guy, and you think that he's like, you know, you know, take this opportunity, like you said, with Chase not being out there to really like exert himself a little bit more. I do. I think it's a big year for him in his career with the contract option next year, Like he's approaching payday time and he has all the ability in the world. His arms go down to the ground. I mean, the guys is physically blessed

and has games where he just completely takes over. So you want a little bit better health, a little bit better luck in terms of just getting you know, finishing rushes with sacks. But if he's there for seventeen games, fifteen sixteen, seventeen games, I think double sacks should be the expectation. It should be his breakthrough year this year. We can You mentioned Christian Halls and William Jackson, but you mentioned kim To Fuller, who has been just all

over He's been the clear standout for me. I mean he's had you know that PBu for with cole Hold and getting the interception. What have you seen out of him? I think Fuller is one of those guys that you feel so good about that maybe there's some overlooking at times, sort of like a Terry McLaurin, a JD. McKissick, but you need to remind yourself like, this is a very good football player who does exceptional things. And what stands out about Fuller is his anticipation. He's great on those screens.

He can read it as it's happening. Basically beat the receiver to the spot and then the Diami Brown tip that you're talking about, that ended with the holcomb pick. Brown turned around and Fuller was just right there with them, got in his chest and that's all she wrote. So Kendall and William. William needs to build off what he did in his first year with Washington. But Kendall keep doing his thing and maybe get a few more picks and he'll be he'll be really happy with this year.

We'll ask you one question about the office where we get you out of here. And you know we've seen Wins kind of aired out a little bit more. You know, this this this practice, you know, one to Jahan, one to Terry. I mean, we don't know really what we're gonna get out of Wins, but like that's one of the the things we do know for certain, right yes, And

I think that's gonna make Scott Turner quite happy. There's gonna be some pages of the playbook he can access after maybe having to keep them, you know, shut the past couple of seasons. So you want to see him, of course, connect more. But I think we'll see that as camp progresses. And regardless at least challenging the defense, making them think that they have to defend that area

will help open up shorter stuff, help run games. So just more aggressiveness from this offense overall, it's only going to benefit guys. Look, so we just wrap, So let's go ahead and head on over the press conference. A man, that's all we have for you today, but be sure to check out your daily Command Center Camp coverage every weekday on the Commander's YouTube channel. I'm gonna go back to my tent because I basically live here like everybody else, and I will see you tomorrow.
