1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: J. P. Shaddwick in the draft room with GM James Gladstone,

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: first draft as a general manager. What are your feelings?

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: Is there anxiety, nerves? How you're feeling just with only

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: a couple hours to go.

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 2: You know, I got to say, with all the work

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 2: that's been done to date, all the collaboration across our

7
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,479
Speaker 2: coaching staff and scouting staff, feel firm in our plan

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 2: heading into tonight, and I got to say it hasn't felt,

9
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: in terms of sensation, all that much different than any

10
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 2: draft previously. You know, you got everything sort of in

11
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: the hopper and feel like you just fall back on

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 2: what you had planned for and go from there. So

13
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 2: we're looking forward to what unfold. But obviously it won't

14
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: take long for us to be on the clock and

15
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 2: we're looking forward to press and send there and making

16
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 2: the call.

17
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: Take us through your day so far, from the wake

18
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: up to the morning prep to get to this.

19
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: Point, you know, it's been low key, It hasn't It

20
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: hasn't been all that different from my normal routine. Woke

21
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: up at the same time, I got here at the

22
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 2: facility fairly early and headed out to thee for a

23
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 2: few laps before taking some calls to just tie up

24
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,919
Speaker 2: a few loose ends and have since been just chewing

25
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: on the same thoughts that seemingly been circling for quite

26
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 2: a few few weeks.

27
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: Now, what's on your final checklist? Now? What do you

28
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: lean on when the clock starts? And take us a

29
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: little bit if you can through your process when time

30
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: is of the essence.

31
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, this first pick is going to be

32
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: a little different than the next nine. Obviously we have

33
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: some version of a controlled environment, knowing that there's only

34
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 2: four selections ahead of us, and beyond that, I think

35
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 2: what we'll lean into is a lot of the same

36
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 2: things that I think we've preached over the last eight weeks.

37
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 2: And really that's about focusing on players who are intangibly rich,

38
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 2: and so that'll be top of mind at each pickpoint,

39
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 2: and really the decisions that we'll make with each of

40
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: the nine picks that lie beyond tonight, we'll be sure

41
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: to lean into that and keep that as our north star.

42
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: We all see rumors. Do you follow the TV coverage

43
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: of draft and all the rumors draft day things that

44
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: may or may not happen, And how busy has it

45
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: been on the phones with the Jaguars.

46
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I think I've got a pulse for what

47
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 2: has seemingly been pushed out, which seems like every single

48
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,399
Speaker 2: scenario on planet Earth, which is exciting, entertaining. I mean,

49
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 2: that's the business that we're in, and I think at

50
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 2: pick number five we'll see some fireworks one way or another.

51
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: James, you luck to appreciate the time.

52
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: I appreciate it as well. Game on,
