1 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: Taking a live look at OTA number four here on 2 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: the field outside the Miller Electric Center in Jacksonville. Will 3 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: be checking in throughout the day as organized team activities 4 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: get started. We're going to do our own version of 5 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: OTAs here on jag VAM. I'm Kadannie Stevens, Brian Sexton 6 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: and John Oser are with me. Let's start up with 7 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: the owen. 8 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 2: OTA's offense is. 9 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: What we're going to be talking about. We've discussed the 10 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: offense of all off season and how important it is 11 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,160 Speaker 1: for them to come out to a strong start. 12 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 2: Head coach Doug. 13 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: Peterson talked this morning about the importance of Trevor Lawrence 14 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: becoming more of a leader. 15 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 3: It's kind of all of it. Decision making, balls coming 16 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 3: out of his hand, faster, quicker decisions, you know, all 17 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 3: that part of it, Accuracy, the timing things that you know, 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 3: and again, just the dialogue we're having out there as 19 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 3: maybe CJ and Mack are taking their ute. You know, 20 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 3: he's back there talking to myself, oppressed Mike and just 21 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 3: always engaging, you know, and that's that's what you want 22 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 3: to see out out the young quarterback. 23 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 2: John. 24 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: That was your question to Doug. We talked about you know, 25 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: Trevor making that jump last year. This year, Doug talked 26 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: about him being a more vocal leader. What did you 27 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: make of of Doug Peterson's answer and what he's seen 28 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: from Trevor so far in OTAs well. 29 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: I think the biggest thing was, you know, he talked 30 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: about what every NFL coach and most NFL quarterbacks learn 31 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 2: then that fans don't really want to hear, and that 32 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,559 Speaker 2: is it's not an overnight process. This thing. It takes 33 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: three or four years, and you can want the quarterback 34 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 2: to develop into that guy, into that all seeing, all 35 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: knowing coach in the field. Guy you wanted to happen 36 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 2: year one, you wanted to happen a year two. You 37 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 2: can take steps toward it, but it's hard to get 38 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 2: there without the time on task. Everything that Press Taylor 39 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: and Doug Peterson were talking about this morning, Bryan sounded 40 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: like they are seeing what they want to see out 41 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 2: of Trevor and then you'll see more growth. Again. I 42 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: don't think it's going to be he was here and 43 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: now he's here, but I think over time you're seeing 44 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 2: growth and they like what they're seeing. 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 4: Chelovy play Devil's Advocate and just ask you this, because 46 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 4: I know you get this question all the time in 47 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 4: your email inbox. How does CJ. Stroud come in and 48 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 4: light it up his first year and look like he 49 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 4: owns the NFL? And how's a guy like Pat Mahomes 50 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 4: not really need any startup time and step writing and go? 51 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 4: Why why be patient? When there are quarterbacks who were 52 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 4: out there achieving? 53 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: Well, I think they got those guys are going to 54 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: get better. I mean meaning Mahomes was at a high 55 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 2: level when he came in at a higher level now. 56 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: You know, as much as Jaguars fans doing here, Stroud 57 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: may have been at one level last year, and he's 58 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: going to get better at those things we're talking about. 59 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: Trevor's led to teams, to any records, he hasn't been bad. 60 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 2: I think they seem more coming. 61 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 4: And I do think it's important to remember that everyone's different, right, 62 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 4: I mean, this quarterback has a different way of playing 63 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 4: the game than C. J. Stroud and Pat Mahomes, and 64 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 4: the Jaguars have to work with him to get him 65 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: to the highest level of performance, and the offensive line 66 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 4: is a big part of that, getting him in a 67 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 4: position where he is comfortable standing back there to throw 68 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 4: the ball down the field. So I get it. I 69 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 4: just know that's an argument I get all the time 70 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 4: as well. Why are some guys successful immediately and why 71 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 4: do some guys need more time? I mean, I think 72 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 4: you can apply that Kui in almost any application of life. 73 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: I think that's fair to say. We're all just looking 74 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: for a better version of Trevor this season, and from 75 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: all intents and purposes, we've seen that so far. Doug 76 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: seems to think we'll see a lot of that progress 77 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: as well. Our second big thing today is going to 78 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: be the t and rokas, which is teaching. We talked 79 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: a lot about the new defensive coordinator coming in and 80 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: teaching his news game, but we also have to talk 81 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: about the new players and how the coaching ath needs 82 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: to adjust their teaching to those players. 83 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 5: You see that show up from the way he handled 84 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 5: himself in the huddle. It's also the meeting room, and 85 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 5: that's one of the things that he's not afraid to 86 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 5: speak up and ask a question. Where some young guys 87 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 5: that are new to a system are you know, they're 88 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 5: probably gonna wait till a meeting ends, go grab a 89 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 5: coach on the side. Hey, you said this what do 90 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 5: you mean by that? Mitchell? Stop a meeting. Make sure 91 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,679 Speaker 5: he's on the same page of what the coach is expecting, 92 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 5: because sometimes you go quickly through these things because you 93 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 5: look around. There's a lot of familiar faces in a room. 94 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 5: Guys have heard this, or guys know, Okay, he's talking 95 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 5: about twenty twenty two Week three, this happened, blah blah blah. 96 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 5: We kind of gloss over some things where Mitchell, Hey, 97 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 5: what do you mean by this? Will pull up clip, 98 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 5: we'll all watch together. Make sure we're all speaking the 99 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 5: same language. 100 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: Mitch Morse is one of those new players, expects to 101 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: be the starter at center this year. Of course, he's 102 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: a veteran of the league, coming from the Buffalo Bills. Brian, 103 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: how much of this is, you know, get everybody on 104 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 1: the same page. We talk about this time, you're getting 105 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: the offensive line all on that one heartbeat rhythm, if 106 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: you want to put it that way. But teaching those 107 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: new guys and incorporating maybe things he has from his 108 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: old team he can bring here as well. 109 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 4: Well. It's about streamlining the entire program, how you teach it, 110 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 4: what you're teaching, the verbiage you use, you know, when 111 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 4: you listen to Press Taylor and last week when we 112 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 4: heard Ryan Nielsen, these guys are excellent communicators, which means 113 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 4: that they don't leave any gray area for their players 114 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 4: to wonder about. It's about guys being able to play 115 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 4: fast because they know what's expected of them on any 116 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 4: given play. So the teaching part of it is really important. 117 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 4: And then I'll just speak to the defensive side, because 118 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 4: last week I was so impressed with the clarity with 119 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 4: which Ryan Nielsen spoke. Now, I mean, they did talk 120 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 4: about putting guys in different positions and seeing what they've 121 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 4: got before they get to camp and ask guys to 122 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 4: do very specific things, but it's pretty clear that the 123 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: communication side of this thing is very important, especially at 124 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 4: Center with Mitch Morse. 125 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think it was Doug he talked 126 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 2: about this morning. It may have impressed the communication with 127 00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 2: Mitch Morse and him going back over quest Hey, I 128 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 2: want to see this, I want to make sure about this. 129 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: It was Doug who was talking about it. It showed 130 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 2: me exactly what everybody sort of knows about OTAs. This 131 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 2: is about that sort of communication. It's about making sure 132 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 2: these offensive linemen know what they need to do during 133 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 2: training camp in terms of finding out how they're going 134 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 2: to mesh together. We'll find that. We'll find that out 135 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 2: when the pads go on. It's all about communication right now. 136 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: It's always about communication, of course, staying healthy, especially on 137 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: the offensive line. Our final big thing for our version 138 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: of OTAs is going to be athleticism. That's something we've 139 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 1: heard from the GM. We've heard that from the coach, 140 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: and of course we've heard that from the players themselves 141 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: wanting to improve from year to year. Of course, we've 142 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: seen a ton of athleticism out of the rookie Brian 143 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: Thomas Junior. But Brian, when you're looking at maybe some 144 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: players that have been on the scene, we'll talk about, 145 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: you know, players we expect to make the jump, but 146 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: otherwise just athleticism. What are you hoping to see from 147 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: the team this year. 148 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 4: Well, we talked about bigger, stronger, faster for most of 149 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 4: the off season after Trent you know, made those comments 150 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 4: in late January. Well, you know you're watching Brian Thomas 151 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,799 Speaker 4: right there. I mean, this is a game of size 152 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 4: and speed, and you're hopeful that you are bigger and 153 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 4: you are faster at key positions. Wide receiver is one 154 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 4: of them. I'm not sure that they got bigger, although 155 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: they got faster at quarterback. With the speed that they 156 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,239 Speaker 4: were able to add, this is a game of speed. 157 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 4: Andy Reid said that right after the draft where they 158 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 4: talked about you know why they took Xavier Worthy in 159 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 4: Kansas City and the draft they said, hey, look, you 160 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 4: know we knew we needed different positions, but this game 161 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 4: is about speed. John, That's the way this game has 162 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 4: evolved in recent years. And I think the thing I'm 163 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 4: looking for is to see guys who are faster. 164 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: You know, they look faster. I mean, now, Brian Thomas 165 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: the fast, and we can trust that Gabe Davis will 166 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: be fast. You know. I think the thing with Gabe 167 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: Davis Brian Thomas when you watch them, just like you 168 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 2: watched them on that clip there. He and now the 169 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: coaches talked about it. He makes everything look easy. It 170 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: seems like football comes easy to him. He does things naturally. 171 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 2: That's all you can tell from a guy. Right now, 172 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 2: there's time to see how he does with the ball 173 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: in the air with defenders on him in game situations. 174 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 2: So far, he looks like a first round draft pick. 175 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: People watching this when they see him move. That's what 176 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 2: they want to see, and people will be pleased with 177 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 2: what they see from Brian Thomas as the first round. 178 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 4: And since we were talking about communication just a moment ago, 179 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 4: it's important to point out that Press Taylor said that 180 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 4: this is a guy who's very easy to communicate with. 181 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 4: He's got a high football IQ. The game itself just 182 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 4: comes naturally to him. So in terms of making it 183 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 4: clear what and he's a rookie receiver, what his role 184 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 4: is on any specific play in any specific situation, to 185 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 4: let him play that fast, Press seems to believe that 186 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 4: his communication level of his IQ will go a long 187 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 4: way towards his success as a rookie. 188 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: Always alert incur, but we're hopeful we'll be able to 189 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: pick up the offense pretty quickly, especially with OTAs and 190 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: training camp around the corner. 191 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 2: Stay with us here on Jagsam. 192 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: We'll have more live looks at o TA number four 193 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about players we expect to make a 194 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: big jump this season. 195 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 2: Move the Freight, Move the Freight. 196 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: Magellan Transportation voted the coolest office space in Jacksonville.

Dot Magellanlogistics dot com. 198 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 2: Welcome back, to jags am here. 199 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: That's a live look of OTAs underway number four. We're 200 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: gonna have ten of them and then mini camp after that. 201 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: I know we talked a lot about you know, they're 202 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: not physical, but this is a really important time to 203 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: kind of get everybody on the same page, get everyone, 204 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, speaking the same language so beat, especially when 205 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: you have a new defensive coordinator coming in. We are 206 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: going to talk specifically now a little bit about players 207 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: we think are going. 208 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: To make a big jump. 209 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: Obviously, we talked a ton about Josh Allen last year. 210 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: He was playing on that contract year, trying to get 211 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: himself a deal. He got himself a long term deal, 212 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: so he did exactly what he needed to do. But 213 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: I think fair to say he's probably the Jaguar that 214 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: made the biggest jump last season, and now we're going 215 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit about who we think will 216 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: make a big jump this season. Brian, when you're looking 217 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,079 Speaker 1: at this roster expecting a player to make a big difference, who's. 218 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: Someone you're looking at. 219 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,599 Speaker 4: I think trigon Walker is the guy who's going to 220 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 4: make the biggest difference, this biggest jump this year. You know, 221 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 4: in the last four games he had five sacks. Not coincidence, 222 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 4: Josh Allen had four sacks in those last four games 223 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 4: and set the franchise record. Look, he's been since the 224 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 4: day he arrived, a really good player on the line 225 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 4: of scrimmage, but he hadn't been that pass rusher. He 226 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: wasn't a finisher, and that was really the word on 227 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 4: him coming out of Georgia was that he was not 228 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 4: used as a pure pass rusher and didn't have the 229 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 4: skill set the combination of moves coming out of college. 230 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 4: It would take some time. Well, end of the second year, 231 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 4: we started to see that, particularly in the game against 232 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 4: the Ravens here where he would use the bull rush 233 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 4: and drive the right tackle back and he just reached 234 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 4: into the pocket and pulled the quarterback to the ground. 235 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 4: We saw pass rush against the against the Panthers too, 236 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 4: So I think he has a huge jump coming in 237 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 4: his second year, I'm sorry, third year, and in particular 238 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 4: I think it because you've got Eric Armstead, who's there, 239 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 4: healthy Devon Hamilton, you have a new defensive scheme. I 240 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 4: think that will work to his advantage. I'm excited for 241 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 4: what I think he's going to be in his third season. 242 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, that he's gonna take a jump. I 243 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 2: would counter that also by saying that even if he 244 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 2: plays as he did last year, he's living up to it. 245 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: To me and I know fans, there's always talk about 246 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: Trayvon one to two pick and all that. If you 247 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: get ten sacks a year out of Trayvon Walker with 248 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 2: everything else he brings. He to me, people ask me 249 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: all the time, who are the best players in this defense? 250 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 2: It's Josh Allen Trayvon Walker. 251 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: But let me be more specific. In training camp in 252 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 4: Detroit last year, at a TV pre production meeting, Josh 253 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 4: Allen said, my goal was to finish. That was what 254 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 4: we didn't see early on from Trayvon Walker last year. 255 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 4: He was always around the quarterback. He was pushing his 256 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 4: way into the pocket, but he wasn't a finisher until 257 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 4: the end of the season. A couple of things again, 258 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 4: if you have a healthy Devon Hamilton and how they 259 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 4: use Eric Armstead pushing the pocket and forcing the quarterback 260 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 4: to get outside, my guess is he's going to run 261 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 4: towards forty four as opposed to forty one. Just think, 262 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 4: and I don't know that a big jump means he's 263 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 4: going to go from ten sacks to seventeen and a half. 264 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 4: But in terms of big I mean consistent finishing over 265 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 4: the course of an entire season as opposed to all 266 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 4: concentrated in one area of the. 267 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: Season, John, when you were looking at players that you 268 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: felt like might make that jump, I know you were 269 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: kind of talking about something similar to what the coaches 270 00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: were talking about and what they're expecting in the return 271 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 1: of Cleveland. 272 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I inserted Ezra Cleveland into this segment. I 273 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 2: don't know that it's even fair to him to say 274 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 2: that he's gonna take a huge jump, because I don't 275 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 2: think he played bad last year. He came in seven games, 276 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 2: he was injured much of that, so he really didn't 277 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 2: get a chance to see what he was. But I 278 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 2: think I wanted to talk about him in terms of 279 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 2: a guy who can raise the position more than the 280 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 2: individual player. I think the coaches believe that he is 281 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 2: an upgrade over what they had. When you talk about 282 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: you know, they've got a lot of questions this year, 283 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 2: you didn't do enough to improve the offensive line. I 284 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 2: think the presence of Cleveland is a guy that they 285 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 2: think will be an upgrade in terms of being there 286 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 2: the entire season, and if he makes that side of 287 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 2: the line better along with Mitch Morse. To me, Brian, 288 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 2: if that the line is better, if the interior part 289 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 2: of the line is better, by definition, it raises the 290 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 2: entire offense. 291 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 4: Well, we talked about bigger, right and stronger. Although Tyler 292 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 4: Shatley's one of the strongest players in the locker room, 293 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 4: he's bigger Cleveland then, and you can see it right there. 294 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 4: He is a big guy. He's got a lot more 295 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 4: length in terms of the ability to keep defensive linemen 296 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 4: from getting into his body and bull rushing him. A 297 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 4: bigger yeah. I mean you look at him and Walker 298 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 4: Little standing side by side. There's a tackle in a guard. 299 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: So I think he's a guy that will significantly upgrade. 300 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 4: Remember he gets here from Minnesota, they plug him right 301 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 4: into the starting lineup, then he gets hurt, then they 302 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 4: move him outside to tackle, and John mentioned he played 303 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 4: hurt the rest of the season. So you see a big, 304 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 4: strong guy like that who's had the offseason to get 305 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 4: ready for playing left guard, and you have to feel 306 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 4: better about it, especially with the addition of Mitch Morse, 307 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 4: who brings that veteran presence in the middle, who makes 308 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 4: everyone's job easier's. I think you're right. I think he's 309 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 4: a guy who can take a a big step forward 310 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 4: in terms of the production of third down and short Yeah. 311 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: And it just seems like when people talk about the line, 312 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: it's almost like they gloss over that and they feel like, well, 313 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: he was here last year, so he was quote part 314 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: of the problem, right, Well, the reason I wanted to 315 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 2: discuss him. I don't think that's necessarily fair to him, 316 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 2: and I think it may be something that people come 317 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 2: back at the end of this season say, oh, well, 318 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: he was consistent, he was there the entire year. What 319 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: a difference it is for that position from the coaching 320 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 2: SaaS point of view. If he's there for seventeen games, 321 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 2: yea and a veteran, a fifty year guy as opposed 322 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: to a revolving door there. I think that is an 323 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: area where you could see the offense as a whole. 324 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 4: In four starting guards on the left side last year, 325 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 4: if he plays seventeen games, that's a massive win. 326 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 327 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: Consistency and staying healthier two things they're definitely focusing on, 328 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: particularly with the offensive line. I'm talking about staying healthy 329 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: for my person. I'm picking Tyson Campbell because I think 330 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: that's someone we had our eye on last year. He 331 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: was going up against Calvin Ridley in practice every week, 332 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: taking on the number one ride receiver of the opposite team, 333 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: and he dealt with a lot of injuries. Right It's 334 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: a hamstring, you know, and that kind of caters and 335 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: then you know you're trying to compensate. It was something 336 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: that nagged with him all year and that really limited him. 337 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: With six games he missed last season. There wasn't a 338 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: lot of consistency he was able to get. And you know, 339 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: there's a lot of talk in the off season they 340 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: need a corner, they need a corner. If they can 341 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: get Tyson Campbell to play it up to what they 342 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: think he's capable of, you know, re sign him after 343 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: this season, that's the corner you need, right So obviously 344 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: there'll be a lot of focus on that group as 345 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: a whole, what they're able to do. 346 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: I think Tyson has the. 347 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: Ability to really make a statement this season, and I'm 348 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: hopeful that he'll be able to stay. 349 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 2: Healthy and do that. 350 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 4: When you have one corner you can anchor on one side, 351 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 4: it allows you to do so many different things with 352 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 4: your coverage. Packages, whether it's nickel or dime or however 353 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 4: you want to roll the coverage. But if you can 354 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 4: count on Tyson Campbell to take the other teams number 355 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 4: one receiver and be able to play with him most 356 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 4: of the time, it gives you a world of flexibility. 357 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 4: And they missed that last year when he popped the 358 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 4: hamstring against the Colts. He really I don't think he 359 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 4: was ever the same the rest of the year. 360 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, the graphic says missed six games. I think he 361 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 2: missed missed them. It felt like he missed the rest 362 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: of the season. I mean, it's and he is a 363 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 2: lynchpin guy to me. The way that it played out 364 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 2: last year, they didn't have a shut down corner in 365 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: the secondary. They had Darius Williams, who had some picks, 366 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 2: also got beat in some plays that he'd liked to 367 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 2: have had back. Tyson was probably, you know what a thirty. 368 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 2: You know, it didn't feel like they had an elite 369 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 2: corner last year. If he plays to what he did 370 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: last year, and there are people who think he'll fit 371 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 2: better in this scheme than what he was trying to 372 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 2: play before. If that's the case, that's a huge upgrade 373 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 2: because I said earlier, Trayvon and Josh Allen may of 374 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 2: the two best players in this defense. Tyson's a guy 375 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 2: who has flirted with being in that group. If he 376 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 2: does more than flirt this year, all of a sudden, 377 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: they got three big down players. 378 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,239 Speaker 4: Well, it's a big year for him too, because it's 379 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 4: a contract. Yeah right, I mean, so he's got a 380 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 4: chance to prove it and to make it if he 381 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 4: gets it done this year. And anybody who knows him, 382 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 4: you guys included, No, he's one of those strong minded guys. 383 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 4: I mean, he really understands what it takes in terms 384 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 4: of time on the field, time in the weight room, 385 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 4: time in the film room. He puts in the work 386 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 4: last year. The Jaguars should have been focused on getting 387 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 4: a deal done for him this offseason, but they didn't 388 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 4: have to be because of the injury. This should have 389 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 4: been one of those things that Trent was trying to 390 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 4: squeeze in and make it happen because of the injury. 391 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 4: It didn't happen that way. I think this is a 392 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 4: really I expect a lot from him this year. 393 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 2: They're real positive for Tyson is that if he's healthy, 394 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 2: the floor is very hot. Oh He's not going to 395 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 2: be bad. It is a matter of how good he 396 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: can be. 397 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: Definitely an X factor for this team. Andre Cisco also 398 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: in that contract year, so two of the defenders that 399 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: will have our eyes on this year. Coming up with 400 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: more of OTA practice. Doug Peterson got his eyes on everybody, 401 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: and we'll go over some ozone mailbag questions as well. 402 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: After the break, Jaguars fans eure up at fanatics dot 403 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: com with all the latest drag styles.

We took a brief week away 408 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: because we had Bucky once. We asked Bucky a couple 409 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: of questions, but now we're going back to John to 410 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: get his infinite finite. 411 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 4: We appreciate it. 412 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 2: Always is finite infinite ten all knowing. 413 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 1: Anyway, John is going to answer some of our questions. 414 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: Our first question is about the International Pathway program, So 415 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: how long can a team keep an International Pathway player 416 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: on their roster. The Jags were awarded aa OOLA in 417 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Patrick Murtau this year, do teams eventually 418 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: have to sign them to the fifty three or the 419 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: practice squad at some point. 420 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 2: Well, if they make the team, they can be on 421 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: the team, and definitely they can be like real live 422 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 2: NFL players. They had a player and I always mess 423 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 2: up his name, I owe Oyola, he was here for 424 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 2: two years. You can have one under that, under that program, 425 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 2: as I understand it. And they signed Murtaw this year, 426 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 2: so there's actually. 427 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 4: A practice squad player. 428 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 2: Well, it's a roster, right, and they can extend the 429 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 2: number on your practice squad from sixteen to seventeen if 430 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 2: they are on the practice squad. So if they make 431 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: the team, they can be on the team indefinitely. And 432 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 2: then you can go side another one and you can 433 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 2: have one on the practice squad and definitely as well. 434 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 2: And there is something this year where they've expanded it 435 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 2: where all teams can sort of automatically have won the 436 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 2: entire season on the practice squad. Before there was it 437 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 2: wasn't as wide open and I haven't researched it much 438 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 2: more than that. Best Min's Dame. 439 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 4: Look, the NFL's goal is to expand internationally. They're playing 440 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 4: in South Hollow, Brazil, they're talking Madrid in Paris, and 441 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 4: in order really to expand, they need to have some 442 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 4: players from some of these countries. They need to have 443 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 4: the game played in some of these countries to a 444 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 4: greater level. So they're really they're pushing this program. 445 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 2: And Myrta, by the way, I don't have developed his 446 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 2: as an NFL player, but he looks the part and 447 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 2: you can ease see how a team could say, hey, 448 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 2: it's worth our time investing in this to see where 449 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: it goes because he's impressed. 450 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 4: Well, it's the left tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles. Jordan 451 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 4: Malita is a former rugby player, which is amazing how 452 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 4: big he is. Right, you can find these guys if 453 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 4: if you just are willing to take the time to 454 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 4: develop them. 455 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: And that's a lot of what it is obviously American 456 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: football and not huge in other countries necessarily. So if 457 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: you can take athletic players and teach them American football 458 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: a lot of talent that can be utilized. There our 459 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: second Ozone mill bag question about the Stadium of the future. 460 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: Ozone I rent the Stadium of the future, is gonna 461 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: have synthetic turf? 462 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 2: Please? 463 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: Saving so other than the whole growing grass and side deal, 464 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: why would you go away from grass? 465 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 2: Well, that's the report and Brian, you may know more 466 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 2: about this than I did. I haven't researched this a 467 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 2: whole lot. My understanding from the reports is that they're 468 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: going to go to terf. Synthetic inside may have something 469 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: to do with it. I'm gonna find out more, don't. 470 00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 4: I don't know that much more about it. I do 471 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 4: know so that there's a push around the league to 472 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: have a consistent surface, right, to have the same surface everywhere. 473 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 4: You obviously can't have natural grass everywhere. It doesn't grow 474 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 4: in certain places at certain times of the year, and 475 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 4: we can't play it indoors in certain times of the year. 476 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 4: I hadn't heard that they were going to the synthetic, 477 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 4: but I do know that there's a push in some 478 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 4: circles in the league to have everybody have the same turf. 479 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 4: And of course they want it to be the good stuff. 480 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 4: They want to have this thing scientifically engineered to be 481 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 4: better for players and their bodies. But I don't know 482 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 4: any more than that. 483 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: It's possibility for the hybrid stuff, I think as well. 484 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: I know Green Bay has that, you know, real grass 485 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: sewn in with the synthetic grass. 486 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 4: It doesn't get pulled up through a framework here. 487 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of the players are fans of that kind 488 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: of dynamic, So maybe something like that we'll see, Because 489 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: I know this stadium isn't fully closed. The new stadium 490 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: of the future, there will be some breezeway in there. 491 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 4: So you know, there's a tray in Phoenix and the 492 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 4: tray slides out with the entire field, And in Houston 493 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 4: they used to have a tray system where they just 494 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 4: lift trays out and take them outside, and maybe they 495 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 4: can do something like that. 496 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 2: We'll keep an eye on those things. Obviously. 497 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: That's all developing as the stadium pitch rolls along. Our 498 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: final ozone question of the day is about some of 499 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: those new defensive players on this roster gave from Washington, 500 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 1: DC says, haven't seen many people commenting on the. 501 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 2: New defensive free agents that were just added. 502 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: Are they camp bodies or do they have a decent 503 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: chance to make the final roster? What does that vote 504 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: poorly for guys like Monterrek Brown, Greg Junior, Christian braswell. 505 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 2: Well, I don't think it necessarily votes poorly. I think 506 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: when you're bringing in a new system, when you get 507 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: to this time of year, which is after the draft 508 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 2: and after collegiate free agency, you get into rookie camp, 509 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: you get into a tag, you take one final look 510 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 2: at your not a final, but you take a fresh 511 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 2: look at the roster and you say, Okay, we like 512 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 2: these young guys. We also want to have an option. 513 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: Coaches don't love often always just having a second year 514 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 2: guy of a so you want to make sure that 515 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: you have some fifty year, sixth year as an option 516 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 2: there and see how it works. So I'm not gonna 517 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 2: call anybody on these lists a can't body, but they're 518 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 2: creating competition. And you also go out and when you 519 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 2: bring in a new scheme, and you bring in a 520 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 2: new defensive back scheme or secondary scheme, you bring in 521 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 2: guys who fit that. You may not have that level 522 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 2: of guy on the roster. When I say level, I 523 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 2: mean veteran experience. You may not already have somebody who 524 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,360 Speaker 2: fits the scheme on your roster when you're changing schemes. 525 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 4: In particular, Monterek Brown and Greg Junior sixth and seventh 526 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 4: round picks, those guys generally signed three year deals. They're 527 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 4: coming into the final year of their deal, and if 528 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 4: you're going to go forward with them, you need to 529 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 4: find out right now, whether they're the guy or not, 530 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 4: or you need to have other guys in the pipeline 531 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 4: that you're developing so that if you're not going to 532 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 4: pay these guys, these guys are ready to step in. 533 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 4: You're always going to have some of those developmental guys 534 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 4: at the bottom of your roster that you're trying to fix. 535 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 4: And especially if we're going to see a contract for 536 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence here, those guys become critical because they play 537 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 4: at a fixed number or they played a lower number 538 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 4: that you can manage on your roster. 539 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence contract is always something thing that we are 540 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: thinking about, whether it's you know, this week or the 541 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: coming weeks. 542 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 2: That's something that we imagine we'll get done very soon. 543 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: Stay with us here on jags am as we preview 544 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: what we're going to be looking at at OTAs today have. 545 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: To explosive state. 546 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 5: You know, it's tough enough being consistently efficient. We want 547 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 5: to be able to have that explosive element to us. 548 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 5: And Brian's length and speed is a big thing that 549 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 5: was obviously the strength of his throughout his college career 550 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 5: with the numbers and all that, and then something gave 551 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 5: has always brought and you're not going to be a 552 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 5: super high path completion percentage if you're pushing the ball 553 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 5: way down the field. And that's something we feel like 554 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 5: we've done a good job. When we've called the play 555 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 5: action stuff. We've been particularly explosive. When you look at 556 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 5: our numbers in terms of concepts that we've called and 557 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 5: opportunities push the ball, we've done a good job with that. 558 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 5: But we do feel like we have the people that 559 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 5: we're able to push the ball down the field. We 560 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 5: just got to be able to get the opportunities to 561 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 5: do that, and we've got to call those types of 562 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 5: ways throughout the course of games. 563 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: Offensive coordinator Press Taylor talking about this offense being more explosive, 564 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: more vertical, Does just Brian Thomas alone give them that 565 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: option or do you think as a whole everybody's staying 566 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: healthy will be a big part of that. 567 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 2: John Well, I think the biggest thing with that, and 568 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 2: he alluded to a little bit. I think they're fine 569 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 2: in terms of threats. If they get better on the 570 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 2: offensive front and run more consistently when they want to run, 571 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 2: they will a get more opportunities because to be on 572 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 2: the field more, you convert third downs all of a 573 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 2: sudden that starts drawing the defense up and you get 574 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,959 Speaker 2: more opportunities to go ankle last year. Honestly, in the 575 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 2: last eight or nine games the last year. If I'm 576 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 2: playing against this team, I'm not going to commit my 577 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 2: defense overly to stop short yards because I know they 578 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 2: can stop it, and therefore I'm not gonna give up 579 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 2: a whole lot over the top. So I think just 580 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 2: getting better on the interior offensive line will help everything, 581 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 2: including the d passing game. 582 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 4: I can't add anything to that other than you know, 583 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 4: I've been hammering on the offensive line in particularly the 584 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 4: interior all off season because third down and two was 585 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 4: such a weak spot for this team last year and 586 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 4: gave no threat of play action. When you've got a 587 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 4: quarterback like Trevor Lawrence, the play action that's everything to 588 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 4: get those one to one matchups down the field. So 589 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 4: they've got to be better there. And you know, my 590 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 4: sense is with Cleveland and Moorse and if Sheriff can 591 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 4: stay healthy, I think it's important to be fair to him. 592 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 4: You know, he injured his ankle last year an opening 593 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 4: day in Indianapolis and didn't miss time. He kept playing. 594 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 4: How many times did he go down with the ankle 595 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 4: during gameslast year because it was bothering him and he 596 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 4: kept playing. If he's healthy, if he can stay healthy, 597 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 4: he's as important as Morse or. 598 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: Cleveland complimentary football. There's a reason we always say it. 599 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: We'll keep an eye on things at OTA's this week, 600 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: and of course we'll check in again with you at 601 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: OTAs as they wrap up next week. Thank you as always, 602 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: we'll see you next week on Jags. I am
