With all due respect, I'm not following what you are saying. Why you feel "he didn't need to..."?
Sure, maybe "he didn't need to" start off his statement with y'all. But my guess is that it came natural to him. And as a Southerner, I can attest that starting a sentence with y'all is not overstating anything. It is very common for Southerners to do so naturally. It is our way of speech.
