Finally, he’s also a true competitor. That’s something that I consider myself as well. I love to compete in everything that I do. So DeMarco and I are constantly competing with one another. I mean, every time we lift, we see who can do more weight or more reps. Every time we’re out there on the on the field running, we see who can run a faster time. So it’s just constant competition between the two of us.

Sam Bradford also joined us this offseason, and he’s been practicing with us for the past few weeks. He and our former quarterback, Nick Foles, are pretty similar kinds of players. They both want to win at all costs. I don’t think I’ve played with a quarterback with a stronger arm than Sam. It’s so effortless every time he throws it. Sam’s kind of a reserved guy, but I think you can tell that he’s going to hold guys to a higher standard as well. If you’re not in the place he wants you to be, he’s going to let you know that you need to get there, and be there when you’re supposed to be there. I think he’s going to hold guys accountable in that regard. If he can lead us, I think could be a really fun year.

On the defensive side of the ball, Byron Maxwell is going to help us a lot. He’s a guy that can come in and lock down a number one receiver. That’s kind of what you need in the NFL right now — someone who you can trust each and every play to go against a team’s top playmaker. That signing is going to help us a lot in our division in the NFC, with all the great receivers that we have to play each and every week.

I love how everyone on the team is loving the training process right now. We don’t want to be great just on Sundays. Everyone wants to be great each every single day. I think that’s something that is going to take us over the next step. Because if you want to get better, that’s the mentality you have to have. And we want to be the best.
