00:00Okay, Andrew Booth. Yeah, the trade that the Cowboys made. Yeah, this is this is really
00:21kind of a this is just of course, a shot right for him, right? Yeah, just as player for player
00:25and this is this Andrew Booth was the second round pick at a Clemson. And when you watched
00:30him play at Clemson, he played a ton of zone coverage at Clemson. He wasn't always really
00:35challenged much as a player. But I just remember him having really, really good quickness with
00:40the ability to drive on that football, that the plant the come forward, I think he's a
00:455050 tackler at times. He runs he moves. Well, there is a burst there when he has to carry
00:52the receiver inside. That's always something really, really big with me. Can you carry
00:56receivers inside? Can you run them? I just didn't think in college they got many opportunities.
01:00And then you watch him with the with the with the Vikings. He is a good size corner. He
01:05plays on the outside. I know people on Twitter all saying oh, he's a good inside player.
01:10I did not see him play one snap inside. And I've watched I watched him play with the Vikings
01:15and they had him primarily playing as a right corner is what they had. But he's good with
01:22his hands. He can jam the receivers along the line of scrimmage. I liked his reactions.
01:26I liked how aware he was as a player, especially when stuff was coming in front of him. Like
01:31I say, he'd be in a zone drop and then something would happen. And then he'd have the ability
01:35to react. He was not afraid to fill on the run when it's coming his direction. But I
01:41feel like though that again, he's going to be a 50-50 tackler when it comes because he
01:46makes a tackle. And then in the in the Tennessee game, he missed a tackle in space. The two
01:51really opportunities he had. And then the Seahawks caught him on a double move for a
01:56touchdown in a game. So that's something we need to kind of keep an eye on. How aggressive
02:01is he going to play? I think for the most part, though, like I said, you got Nashawn
02:06Wright, who really wasn't going anywhere with the Cowboys. And probably the same thing with
02:10Andrew Booth with the Minnesota Vikings. They probably felt like he wasn't going anywhere
02:15with them. So you just get two players. It's like, hey, change the scenery. Here we go. You
02:20take our guy. We'll take your guy. And then we'll move on forward from here.
