Ossai is impressive. He says if you could script what someone should say; he does it. Calling card is effort.

JB wants protection up the middle. That's why Cappa and Karass (Originally Bucs C) were such priorities. JB says he can "handle the pressure from the edges himself"

Culture is real. Talked about how amazing the culture is. If you didn't "buy in" you were gone. Effort, effort, effort..

Coaching stability is great. Stated it was very rare to have the same HC and 3 coordinators for 4 years.

Doesn't "know" anything about Bates situation. "Thinks" he'll report and sit out a lot of the physical stuff during Preseason, but just guessing.

JB was not comfortable until about the mid-point last year.  

Had Dax very high on draft board because of versatility . So happy he was there

CTB and Apple will compete for starting gig. He thinks if CTB doesn't win the job in Preseason, he will at some point during the season. Unless Apple "surprises".

Glad to hear Ossai has been impressive. Would be great to have another good pass rusher.
