Rob Bradford

because now I'm really anxious to see like this version of you.

Your version is awesome.

Yeah, thank you.

But it's, you know, I was just talking to Steven Matz about this.

The two words which everyone mentions, but nobody wants to mention, the secret sauce of the Tampa Bay Raiders.

But anyway, can you take me through your off-season?

Because obviously the year before, you kind of got it out of the way with a qualifying offer.

Take me through how your mindset was.

I always find it interesting, like patience is easier said than done, but then you're working out.

You are showing up every day, you're trying to put the best version of yourself out there.

I don't know if you're able to separate that when you're working out or you're just like, when I get home, I'll worry about it.

Let's go back to the year before, which is when you did get the different off-season because of the qualifying offer.

We talked after that and there's the security of it, but I don't know if there's the pressure of it too.

I don't know.

And you felt good about the fact that when you win...

you know like why you're figuring it out whatever and you had some big moments right it's good like yeah it's all good it's a good experience it's like and also it ups your game you know it's up yeah what a what a great experience it is for you to say i did this and now i'm going to do this now i you know i'm in it through an off season of free agency i've landed in a good spot i'm here to build you up right yeah thank you thank you yeah yeah so again uh you know with with the raise a

But what is the thing since you've been here, or even when they were sort of recruiting you, talking to you, that they're like, okay, we see this and we want you to do this, right?

Is there anything?

you know again throwing strike one is is no real secret right yeah but here's the thing i don't mean to interrupt you i've talked to the guy i always default to in this conversation is jake dean like when i talked to when he came over and he was very honest he's like i've heard that a lot but when you're here it hits different yeah because obviously there's success and everything right right yeah i'm looking forward to it yeah yeah i'm looking forward to working with these guys yeah yeah um and so you still have the same change

Unless they start tinkering with it, which, which I never, anytime anyone talks about the role can change.
