Podcast appearances and mentions of dani sureck

Have questions before training camp? The Cardinals Underground crew has answers. Paul Calvisi, Dani Sureck, and Zach Gershman (filling in for the vacationing Darren Urban) discuss key topics like cornerback depth, the inside linebacker battle, Isaiah Adams' chances at right guard, Kyler Murray's prime, expectations for edge rusher Josh Sweat, Calais Campbell's return and Trey McBride's involvement in Tight End University. Plus, we save time for Getting Cultured with Dani, Paul's Power Poll of Ineptitude, and a few examples of winning—and not-so-winning—behavior.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let the information flow from Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck as the offseason program ends and the consideration of Kyler Murray in his prime continues. Also up for discussion, how many rushing yards Murray might have, the chemistry he will have with Marvin Harrison Jr. and others, Trey Benson as the other RB1, Trey McBride possibly leading the team in catches again, a probable increase in kickoff returns, what the numbers of the 53-man rosters might be. Dani also gets the guys cultured, and before Paul forgets, there's some Winning Behavior too.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Crabs in a bucket? Not for lunch, and not in the defensive line room either. That's something Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck chat about in this week's minicamp-has-begun podcast, which lends itself to asking just what kind of role Walter Nolen III will have by season's beginning. Also among the topics: Kyler Murray's abilities when he finds space on the field and broken plays, additional motion to the offense, Kelvin Beachum's message to a team in win-now mode, Getting Cultured with a newly-wed NFL QB, Myles Garrett's potential addition to his “graveyard,” a QB room with Kyler and Jacoby, third downs with Marvin, Winning Behavior and Paul's flex reaction at the gym, Wolf and his cottage cheese, and a farewell to Gardeck the Barbarian.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 891 - More points. Less turnovers. Of course, that's the easy answer. But what else might ‘efficient' look like, and, by the way, that's the word Jonathan Gannon used when talking about the offense going into this upcoming season. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck have their own thoughts on what to expect from an offense that is running it back from a year ago, at least in terms of personnel. Also, on the eve of mandatory minicamp, what, and maybe better said, who do Craig and Dani want to see on the field? Will there be anything shown over the next three days that give hints as to what the 2025 Arizona Cardinals might look like both offensively and defensively? This is the final week of work before the start of training camp.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Arizona Cardinals have a dynamic rushing attack with the likes of James Conner, Trey Benson and even quarterback Kyler Murray. How much will the offense rely on the running game this season? Dani Sureck, Paul Calvisi and Rob Fredrickson discuss the potential of a full season with the one-two punch of Conner and Benson; week two of OTAs starting and what can be gained from these practices; what Darius Robinson needs to do to take the next step in his career; Plus, the trio take a look at some players who we haven't seen a lot of on the field and whom of those may make an impact this season.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the Cardinals go through their second week of OTAs, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck might have a couple of zingers for each other, but that's to be expected in this highly competitive environment. It's the launching point to discuss the meaning of attendance in voluntary work, a visit by Kenny Dillingham, the foolish idea that J.G. is under pressure, allowing defensive backs to challenge pass catchers in camp, the idea the offense will level up with more motion, a new Out Of Context, what Gannon seeks in guys being in shape; Walter Nolen III's progress, Nick Rallis' options with his new defensive line, how other teams are running Cardinals' schemes, a new Winning Behavior and the “QB mentor,” and Saquon and the Madden Cur… er, cover.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 889 - The Cardinals will be back out on the practice field this week as Week Two of OTA's are set to begin. What do we want to see? What are we expecting to see? Dani Sureck and Zach Gershman give their thoughts. Plus, the two discuss the depth at offensive line and how the starting line might look come Week 1; what offensive coordinator Drew Petzing had to say about Kyler Murray's unscheduled runs; and how the Cardinals offense is poised to take the next step in 2025.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As we hit all the graduation days around the Valley, sure, you'd think Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck will be friends forever. First, they podcast this week to discuss the arrival of OTAs, Sean Murphy-Bunting's absence and how the cornerback situation looks without him, Will Johnson's chances at starting, the underrated and the underappreciated on the Cardinals roster, Dani gets everyone cultured, Darius Robinson's importance (and BJ Ojulari too), the authenticity of upcoming position battles, the meaninglessness of Kyler's rankings, MHJ's needs, zombies in Winning Behavior, and how international games impact all fans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's heating up outside and that means that the Cardinals are getting ready for Voluntary OTAs to begin. Dani Sureck, Paul Calvisi and Drew Stanton discuss how important this time of year can actually be for a team and what both sides of the ball can accomplish out on the practice field. Plus, the trio talk about expectations for Kyler Murray, Marvin Harrison Jr. and the rest of the offense as well as the competition at cornerback and which of the young players will need to step up in 2025.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 886 - It's called Phase 3, when teams can line up offense against defense. Still no contact but practice looks more like football. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck preview the start of organized team activities, better known as OTAs for short. How much do we see of the newcomers, whether that's Josh Sweat or Walter Nolen III and Will Johnson? What about those players who we didn't see a lot of in 2024 like BJ Ojulari, Justin Jones and Bilal Nichols? Do we get an idea of who the team likes at right guard? Is there a wide receiver who emerges? Also, Craig and Dani discuss the Cardinals and Broncos holding a single joint practice ahead of their preseason game in Denver and the latest from the Spring League Meeting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Darren Urban acerbic and caustic? Never. (Or maybe never a doubt.) But that's what Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck deal with as our trio discuss Marvin Harrison's new physique and how that (and other things) can help him improve in his second NFL season, the consequences of a back-loaded schedule, a preseason practice in Denver, if Jonathan Gannon might adjust his preseason playtime philosophy, the Niners paying their guys and Brock Purdy in particular, the NFC West early handicapping, Getting Cultured about schedule release content, flag football in the Olympics, more Winning (and non-winning) behavior, Budda Baker and the Cardinals growing closer, and a touching story about Paul's early days as a gym guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 884 - And now we know the when. The Arizona Cardinals schedule is out. It was released with much fanfare – more on that later. The who and the where have been known for months and on Wednesday, we got the when. Craig Grialou, Dani Sureck and Paul Calvisi dive into the 18-week, 17-game schedule. What do they like? What do they not like? How many primetime games did the Cardinals get? When is the bye week? And how many ‘revenge' games are there? (Yes, Paul is keeping track.) Now, about the fanfare. “Rocketship,” aka inside linebacker Mack Wilson Sr., rapped the schedule. That's right, rapped.

Schedule release is upon us, and while there will be a 5 p.m. Wednesday surprise along with your dates and times, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are here to tackle the big picture topics – like how did the Vikings get two international games and another team (say, the Cardinals) didn't get one? Also in the discussion: potential Thanksgiving games, the greeting card industry, the importance of when you play an opponent, Mack Wilson Sr.'s charity hoops game, a new Getting Cultured, the “perfection” of rookies this time of year, the best camp battles to come (hint, a lot on defense), this week's Winning Behavior, and a highest speed limits around.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 882 - It's been a busy two days for Jordan Burch. He, and the other rookies, arrived Thursday. Then Friday the seven-player draft class and six undrafted free agents gathered on the practice field for the start of rookie minicamp. In addition, Burch added a stop in the radio studio to speak with Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck about his time at Oregon, expectations for Year 1 with the Cardinals, learning the playbook, first impressions of the coaching staff, reuniting with high school teammate Xavier Thomas and the differences he sees between putting his hand in the dirt versus standing up on the edge.

Yes, we are opening with a mention of Valentin Senn, but Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck quickly turn their attention to the Cardinals' draft class and what it all entailed. The discussion included the thought process of the Cardinals during their trade in the fifth round, Denzel Burke and why they were OK with the opportunity cost; collecting all those cornerbacks and what the battle will be like in the secondary; the benefit of getting both Walter Nolen III and Will Johnson, two guys considered first-rounders pre-draft; what Johnson can be; a Belichickian episode of Getting Cultured; the Shedeur saga; Cody Simon's chances to start; Jalen Milroe's winning behavior; and Paul updates the power poll of incompetence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 877 - Four picks on Saturday. Seven picks overall. Nearly every pick, six, went towards the defensive side of the ball. Yes, the real winner of the 2025 NFL Draft is defensive coordinator Nick Rallis; so many new toys to play with, and don't forget about all the defensive additions in free agency. Craig Grialou, Dani Sureck and Paul Calvisi – it's another Cover 3 edition – talk about the most recent selections: Ohio State inside linebacker Cody Simon (fourth round, 115th overall), Ohio State cornerback Denzel Ward (fifth round, 174th overall), Texas offensive lineman Hayden Conner (sixth round, 211th overall), and Nevada safety Kitan Crawford (seventh round, 225th overall). Also, the three discuss what GM Monti Ossenfort and assistant GM Dave Sears had to say about the seven-player draft class.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 876 – On Friday, the Cardinals doubled down on defense in the 2025 NFL Draft. Again, are we surprised? OK, maybe a little, but defense has been the team's MO all offseason. Craig Grialou, Dani Sureck and Paul Calvisi – call it Cover 3 – talk about the selections of Michigan cornerback Will Johnson (second round, 47th overall pick) and Oregon Edge rusher Jordan Burch (third round, 78th overall pick). For those keeping track, that's three defensive players in the first three rounds. Also, what did GM Monti Ossenfort and head coach Jonathan Gannon have to say about Johnson and Burch, why they were the picks; why Monti didn't decide to trade down despite offers; and JG explains why Walter Nolen III is already off to a great start.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 874 – Why was Walter Nolen III the selection with the 16th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft? In a word, disruptive. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman are back to further discuss the defensive tackle out of Ole Miss. First, they are joined by former Cardinals linebacker Rob Fredrickson; why he likes the addition, what it means for the defense. Later, Craig and Zach are joined by Dani Sureck; call it Cover 3 for the rest of the show. Dani gives her thoughts on Nolen; why the pick made so much sense, how Nolen fits inside a crowded defensive line room. Also, Dani shares her conversations with GM Monti Ossenfort and head coach Jonathan Gannon; both of whom she spoke with immediately after Nolen was announced as the pick by the Commissioner.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The draft is upon us, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are open for business. Are the Cardinals? We will see if GM Monti Ossenfort is dealing on draft weekend again, but first Paul checks to see if our crew lights the lamp with good points. The trio talk about the power poll of draft needs (and how it impacts the first round), whether a middle linebacker could get into the mix of consideration, the latest episode of Out of Context, potential trading down for the Browns at 2 or the Giants at 3, who would be the one at 16 for each of our hosts, Roy Green's history as a Travis Hunter two-way player, Getting Cultured with Dani about the Boston Marathon, the draft party at State Farm Stadium, and NFL's week in Green Bay.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 870 – It's become an annual spring tradition: the pre-draft press conference. GMs, and often head coaches, meet with the media and answer questions ahead of the NFL Draft. A lot of words are spoken, but not a lot is said. To put it another way, no one is going to tip their hand or show their cards. Everything is kept very close to the vest. (Have we used enough idioms?!) Still, that doesn't stop people, including Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck, from trying to read between the lines. Will Monti Ossenfort stick-and-pick at 16? Trade down? Trade up? All options appear to be on the table. All positions, or most positions, seem to be on the table with that first-round selection regardless of what the team has done in free agency. In other words, stay tuned.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The splash zone? No, probably just balderdash, but Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have much to discuss as the draft draws near. With Patrick Peterson in town, it gets one to thinking – is a cornerback the first-round choice? Another defensive lineman? A wrecker on the interior offensive line? All possible. Meanwhile, Peterson's return to Arizona generates so many memories, brings in so many names to visit, and underscores the benefit of making up with family. There is a special edition of Wise Guy – including a buzzer-beater(?), as well as Cam Skattebo talk. Calais Campbell domination, the mixologists in front offices, going without a phone, Winning Behavior, and the mock tendencies of both Darren and K1.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 869 - Another day, another day closer to the NFL Draft. Many draft experts, including multiple on this show, have raved about the depth at defensive line in this year's class. But, with the additions of Dalvin Tomlinson and Calais Campbell, will the Cardinals target a different position in the first round? Dani Sureck and Zach Gershman discuss all the possibilities. Could it be an offensive lineman? Cornerback? Could it even be a wide receiver at pick 16? Plus, the two talk about what Trey McBride's contract extension says about the organization and how Monti Ossenfort and Jonathan Gannon value their own players.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cardinals significantly upgraded their defensive line in free agency with the addition of players like Dalvin Tomlinson and Calais Campbell. Could they be eyeballing the NFL Draft to upgrade the offensive line? Dani Sureck is joined by Paul Calvisi and Rob Fredrickson to discuss the possibilities. Plus, a breakdown of the contract extension signed by Trey McBride and the excitement surrounding the return of the popular Calais Campbell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don't worry - the stock of Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck is up, even if no other stock is, as our trio dive into yet more (odd) draft speculation, the craziness of draftees being mocked all over the place from 5 to 50, a new Out of Context, Calais Campbell and the DL depth and whether it impacts the draft and/or development, picking wants vs. needs in the Cardinals draft, some of the players who have taken “30” visits to Tempe, Trey McBride's giant new contract, what McBride's role will be/continue to be, to hurdle or not to hurdle, Mike McDaniel's shine for JG and the Cardinals' defense, Winning Behavior and a 25-second anthem note, the possibility of a first-round trade, and Paul lights up a room.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 867 - Six picks. One in each of the first five rounds. The Cardinals don't have nearly the draft capital as they did a year ago. Still, GM Monti Ossenfort should be able to find some solid players, starters even despite the lack of a lot of star power in the 2025 NFL Draft. That's how Paige Dimakos of The Draft Network sized up the draft when she joined the show from the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. In addition to the conversation with Dimakos, Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck look at a couple of more mock drafts, ones that target the line of scrimmage but on the offensive side, and discuss why defensive tackle remains in play at pick 16 even after the addition of Calais Campbell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back from the NFL owners meetings - and from the breaking news that came out when he was 35,000 feet in the air on his return - Darren Urban joins Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck to talk about the return of Calais Campbell and what it means for this newly minted defensive line. But that's just the start of topics, which include the veteran leadership the team has collected, the Cardinals' chances in the NFC West, what might happen with the draft (and the D-line), wide receiver or corner early as a pick, a tush push update, your Getting Cultured with Dani, JG and BMI, getting a speed receiver, and Darren's totally ***not*** Winning Behavior.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 866 - It may be April Fools' Day but this is no joke. Defensive lineman Calais Campbell, one of the most popular players in modern Cardinals history, is returning to Arizona on a one-year deal. Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck gather for an impromptu pod to share memories of Calais and forecast what he can mean for the 2025 Cardinals both on and off the field. Entering his 18th NFL season, Campbell is a six-time Pro Bowl selection and has earned many off-field honors including the prestigious Walter Payton Man of the Year Award.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 864 - When you have a franchise quarterback, then you do everything in your power to surround him with talent; and not just on offense but on both sides of the ball. The Cardinals have their franchise quarterback in Kyler Murray, so build around him according to Cynthia Frelund and Marc Ross from the NFL Network. Frelund, an analytics expert, and Ross, a former front office executive, joined both Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck from the Scouting Combine last month in Indianapolis. In addition to QB1, the conversations with the two included what positions the Cardinals should focus on in the draft and just how “wide open” they believe the NFC West is in 2025.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's list season, or so Paul Calvisi tells us, so he asks Dani Sureck and Darren Urban to list off some things: How many QBs could go in the first round, how that could impact the team's first-round pick, the odds Monti Ossenfort might trade – back, or maybe up – in the first round, what that position might be, and what reasons might the Cardinals need (or not) another receiver. Plus there is an Out of Context segment, Getting Cultured, potential breakout players for the Cards this season, Winning Behavior (or not when it comes to gold-plated toilets) and Paul's cheese fatigue. It was cheese, right Paul?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Paul Calvisi seeks Josh Sweat quote clarity and Dani Sureck returns from a week's hiatus, the two jump in with Darren Urban as the trio get to the additions on the Cardinals' defensive line and the improvements made there, how Josh Sweat and Dalvin Tomlinson might impact the direction of the team's first-round pick, the quest for guards, Mack Wilson Sr.'s role-to-be, how Darius Robinson could find a way to echo Braden Fiske, a Getting Cultured segment, what the Cards would do if they had a high pick, a lack of first-round trades, Winning Behavior and workouts nobody in their right mind would want.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 861 - The regular season doesn't start for another six months. That said, GM Monti Ossenfort is big on being able to go into the draft without having to select a position of need; go with the best player available regardless of where they play. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck - after a week off, Dani is back - discuss whether that's what's been accomplished after the first week of free agency. Are there still positions where the Cardinals might want to address; what about guard, specifically right guard; is a veteran or speed wide receiver needed; and what are we to make of last week's visit by veteran cornerback Asante Samuel Jr.? Also, if you haven't heard, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s No. 18 jersey is now available.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
