Speaker 1: It is Thursday, April one. This is Jaguars Happy Hour.
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hours brought to you by Duval Motor Group
Speaker 1: and now People Magazines Sexiest Man Alive. Jd um what
Speaker 1: an accolade. Welcome in. It's Jaguars Happy Hour. I'm J P. Shadrick,
Speaker 1: Jeff Blagovan coming up. Here's what's on the program today,
Speaker 1: and we'll review the Urban Meyer comments of Peter King.
Speaker 1: We'll hear from Peter King coming up, talking about Trevor Lawrence. Finally,
Speaker 1: the seventeenth game voted on by league owners and we'll
Speaker 1: get to some proposed rule changes that will be voted
Speaker 1: upon in the coming weeks by the league ownership offseason workouts.
Speaker 1: The dates for those have been a now outs, but
Speaker 1: not much further beyond that will go around the National
Speaker 1: Football League as well, including an ownership dispute in Southern California.
Speaker 1: Jeff Logerman, good afternoon. What's up man? It's all good JP.
Speaker 1: And by the way, is that People's magazine? I don't know,
Speaker 1: but People Magazine? Uh, last time I checked, you weren't
Speaker 1: the sexiest man in that magazine. Probably probably that might
Speaker 1: have been the cover of the like you know, when
Speaker 1: you go to the fair and they superimpose your face
Speaker 1: on the magazine cover. Right, Yeah, that might have been.
Speaker 1: I'll take whatever I can get. I'll put it that way.
Speaker 1: That's fine with me. Look like, here's the deal though,
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I don't want anybody getting confused thinking
Speaker 1: that that's a real deal story. I mean it's why
Speaker 1: not because some people might actually think that that's the truth. Remember,
Speaker 1: it's just exactly. Remember when we did the oh it
Speaker 1: was the the Jeff Lockman behind Football thing that we
Speaker 1: did for the television Pro show some years ago. We
Speaker 1: did a parody of the NFL network um behind the
Speaker 1: Chains or whatever. It's good and we did the Jeff
Speaker 1: Logaman when and it was so well done by Patrick Kavanaugh,
Speaker 1: David Canis and the crew. I think I did the
Speaker 1: voicing of it, all this stuff, and they ran it
Speaker 1: on the TV show and there are people that called
Speaker 1: the TV station saying, hey, when is when is the
Speaker 1: when does it actually air? Like they were looking for
Speaker 1: this thing, but they didn't know it wasn't real. It
Speaker 1: was pretty good. Excuse me, it was very well done.
Speaker 1: And by the way, Happy April Fool's Day, Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: happy Happy April Fools. Is that is there such a thing?
Speaker 1: I don't know. You just brought it up. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna get a little later. We got a guy in
Speaker 1: the league who's you know, included the Jaguars on his
Speaker 1: April Fools, but we'll get to that a little bit
Speaker 1: later though. Well, I got the old Teacher, their Ultimate teach.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see that and hear that. But
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. A lot going on, so here,
Speaker 1: here's the one thing that we will say, Okay Wettle disclaimer.
Speaker 1: We will not give anybody false information on this show today.
Speaker 1: Even though we don't do a Fool's Day, we don't
Speaker 1: do it. Ever. We're always pretty straightforward here we are.
Speaker 1: We're very straight up and on especially today, because anything
Speaker 1: today could be taken. You gotta double check on a
Speaker 1: day like today. A tweet today, right, So Roy Williams.
Speaker 1: I was talking to Urban Meyer earlier today and he said,
Speaker 1: they're not taking Trevor Roy right. You know. Then imagine
Speaker 1: Action puts out the tweet today that Roy Williams is retiring,
Speaker 1: and everybody's like, wait a minute, Oh, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: he is retiring, you know, like they had to really
Speaker 1: kind of double check and make sure. Now see if
Speaker 1: if you was coming it is real, If that's real,
Speaker 1: you don't put that out on April one, you think
Speaker 1: everybody celebrates Tapril fools. You hold it or you do
Speaker 1: you do it the day before. I mean, if you
Speaker 1: if you release it on April one, you had the
Speaker 1: information on the last day in March. I mean, have
Speaker 1: a little awareness there, just saying but it's true. I mean,
Speaker 1: what do what you gotta do? Like waited other day
Speaker 1: so all the jokes can get out. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: what if you want to die hard? Would you not?
Speaker 1: I mean you would be like, that's that's come on,
Speaker 1: pulling our leg. It's April fir come on. So uh nothing,
Speaker 1: We're gonna shoot it straight here today. So there's a
Speaker 1: lot going on. We'll hear from Peter King coming up.
Speaker 1: He was on the ozone podcast. Of course, Peter had
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer on his podcast earlier in the week and
Speaker 1: had some news come out of that. But around the league,
Speaker 1: and we had last week on the show, we had
Speaker 1: Judy Batista on from NFL Network. It was going into
Speaker 1: the owners meetings. Well, the owners have met and voted
Speaker 1: seven team games down in the regular season, three preseason games.
Speaker 1: The Jags have picked up the Atlanta Falcons. The seventeenth
Speaker 1: game will feature teams from opposing conferences that finished in
Speaker 1: the same place within their division the previous season. This year,
Speaker 1: the a f C gets the home game and the
Speaker 1: FC South just happened to match up with the NFC
Speaker 1: South this year, so the Jags get the Falcons. Both
Speaker 1: teams were in last place last season, and it moves
Speaker 1: back to the Super Bowl another week as always, and
Speaker 1: it also adds logs, which was in this story. In
Speaker 1: the release, it adds a rotation of international games. Beginning
Speaker 1: in two every team in the league will play internationally
Speaker 1: at least once every eight years, up to four neutral
Speaker 1: site games per year. Scheduled initially focused on listen to
Speaker 1: This focused on Canada, Europe, Mexico, South America, and the
Speaker 1: United Kingdom. So I'll look to expand the international Let
Speaker 1: me just say one thing, because you said it's gonna
Speaker 1: add it's really not adding games, because it's using games
Speaker 1: that are going to be on the schedule and then
Speaker 1: they're gonna be played overseas. So I want I want
Speaker 1: to make sure because when you say they're adding them,
Speaker 1: some people might get the impression that, Okay, these are
Speaker 1: gonna be on top of the stunt. I just wanted
Speaker 1: that we that, you know. But uh, I like the
Speaker 1: idea of how they're they're coming up with the formula
Speaker 1: for the seventeenth game. Here's what it's gonna do. It's
Speaker 1: gonna create some amazing matchups, right, I mean, because you're
Speaker 1: taking essential equal finishers and opposite conferences and matching them
Speaker 1: up in whatever division you don't play already in the
Speaker 1: sixteen there's so so now you're gonna get a division
Speaker 1: champion versus division champion. I mean, you're talking about marquee
Speaker 1: games here, now, some fantastic games. Uh. The Atlanta Jacksonville
Speaker 1: game is not exactly a marquee game if you were
Speaker 1: looking at it from a national perspective at all. Uh,
Speaker 1: other than you could end up having two rookie passers
Speaker 1: or future quarterbacks on both teams. I mean, the Falcons
Speaker 1: could conceivably draft. Uh. But you know, here, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: The owners voted on the seventeenth game. It was a
Speaker 1: foregone conclusion, and we knew that it was gonna happen.
Speaker 1: Everybody knew that it was. It was just a formality
Speaker 1: for the owners to go ahead and improve that. And
Speaker 1: jud pats To actually said the same thing to us
Speaker 1: last week, that it's a done deal because that was
Speaker 1: negotiated with the players union, and that was the whole
Speaker 1: thing about the extent of the current deal. And and
Speaker 1: I was jokingly talking to Judy and pose the question about, well,
Speaker 1: if you end up adding one game, you should subtract
Speaker 1: two preseason games, because one regular season game is equal
Speaker 1: to two preseason games. But the reality is is that
Speaker 1: ownership will never give up that preseason game because that's
Speaker 1: a bargaining ship for the future. Because if they in
Speaker 1: fact do want to go to a teen games, which
Speaker 1: you know what, a lot of people say, Oh, that's
Speaker 1: not gonna happen. It was very hard getting a seventeen.
Speaker 1: The reality is is that at some point in the future,
Speaker 1: eighteen games lies in the NFL's future. And whether they
Speaker 1: get to that with expanded rosters or however they do it,
Speaker 1: that means more money for the league. That means more
Speaker 1: players out of the rosters. And uh and with the
Speaker 1: union having a lot of change of membership at a
Speaker 1: pretty constant rate, I can tell you right now that
Speaker 1: eighteen games is gonna happen. I don't know how far
Speaker 1: out it's going to be, but at some point in
Speaker 1: the future it's gonna be. That's why the ownership won't go, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna play seventeen games and we're just gonna go
Speaker 1: to two preseason games. They're losing the game. At some
Speaker 1: point in the future, they're gonna say, okay, okay, well,
Speaker 1: you know what the agreement says, we're gonna have twenty games.
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna go to eighteen and two. You know.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, Like I said, I don't know
Speaker 1: when that's gonna happen, but at some point in the
Speaker 1: future that will happen. And to my I don't know this,
Speaker 1: but I guarantee you that it will. And number two
Speaker 1: is that is that safe for the players both? I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's you know, that's the one thing I think.
Speaker 1: I'm all for seventeen games because it provides more entertainment
Speaker 1: for me. I'm okay with that. Sure, Okay, But if
Speaker 1: I was still playing and the player membership and the
Speaker 1: league is talking about player safety, player safety, player safety,
Speaker 1: when you add games, is that adding the player safety,
Speaker 1: is that making the game safer or players if you
Speaker 1: don't put in some other kind of measures to protect players.
Speaker 1: I just think that there's no doubt that the league
Speaker 1: has has made leaps and bounds progress with trying to
Speaker 1: protect the players from the concussions and the protocols that
Speaker 1: they all have to go through and everything of that nature.
Speaker 1: They have. They have improved it dramatically. But they still
Speaker 1: need to to to not stop in the progress that
Speaker 1: they have made to make the game safer for players.
Speaker 1: And the one thing that I hope that happens is
Speaker 1: that this past year, with the roster expanded like it
Speaker 1: did with COVID, I hope that going forward that they
Speaker 1: continue to have some type of roster expansion on a
Speaker 1: more permanent basis and not make it something that was
Speaker 1: just unique because of the COVID issue that we all
Speaker 1: were faced with. So going back to the preseason games,
Speaker 1: three of them this year, you know there's some football
Speaker 1: types across the hall, I'm sure that would argue, Hey,
Speaker 1: we need all these preseason games to evaluate these guys
Speaker 1: and and see who we really want on this roster. Right,
Speaker 1: they didn't get a chance to do that last year.
Speaker 1: You can do that in three games. It will just
Speaker 1: will just change the way those three games looks. Getting three.
Speaker 1: What was game three in the past where it was
Speaker 1: kind of the dress rehearsal, Probably game two now, right,
Speaker 1: and then game three will be all the guys who
Speaker 1: are on the bubble. Any coach that will tell you
Speaker 1: that they need to have three presect preseason games to
Speaker 1: determine whether a guy can play is is it's hogwash.
Speaker 1: You can find out in a couple because you're you're
Speaker 1: looking at players constantly on a daily basis, practice, through
Speaker 1: out training camp, etcetera. I mean, but if you have
Speaker 1: the opportunity to, wouldn't you rather have it? Okay, we've
Speaker 1: got the still, yeah, you'd like to have twenty to
Speaker 1: evaluate your roster. I mean in a perfect world, right,
Speaker 1: I mean because you know, hey, well let's make sure
Speaker 1: let's add twenty games, you know, the preseason, because you know,
Speaker 1: then we really know, you know, we know that once
Speaker 1: he gets into the grind, how's he going to react?
Speaker 1: You know. I don't know if there is a magic number,
Speaker 1: but I think two is plenty. And here's the reality.
Speaker 1: College football has never had any problem getting ready for
Speaker 1: their regular season with how many preseason games they play. Huh,
Speaker 1: isn't that amazing. There's some teams that sleepwalk a little
Speaker 1: bit that first week though. Oh yeah, sure. But here's
Speaker 1: the here's the reality. It's still good football. I mean
Speaker 1: last year, no off season, no preseason, was it pretty
Speaker 1: darn good football right out of the game. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: lot out here was the same way. Everybody's worried about that.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden they come back and and and
Speaker 1: here and here's the thing. I get it, I understand it.
Speaker 1: It's about money, and that's what the preseason game is.
Speaker 1: You still get gay, you still get concessions, you still
Speaker 1: get parking and uh, and you still have a card
Speaker 1: in your vest, so to speak. If your ownership in
Speaker 1: the future, with the current agreement that you have with
Speaker 1: the players, that maybe you could expand eighteen games in
Speaker 1: the future, because the agreement currently says twenty and it's
Speaker 1: all about negotiations and uh. And also about who holds
Speaker 1: the power and if your ownership, you're not giving up
Speaker 1: that power to have twenty games and and utilize every
Speaker 1: one of them right now, So that's a bargaining chip
Speaker 1: in the future. If you're looking for a way to

Speaker 1: The guy who, for the last three years everyone has
Speaker 1: said when he comes out, he's going to be the
Speaker 1: first pick in the draft. He is the closest thing
Speaker 1: to Andrew Luck since Andrew Luck. I think in this case, John,
Speaker 1: you shouldn't overthink it. You ought to just take the
Speaker 1: guy who's far and away been the best candidate. And look,
Speaker 1: it could be that Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, one of
Speaker 1: these guys has a better NFL career. You just can't tell.
Speaker 1: But I think it would be I don't want to
Speaker 1: say irresponsible, that's that's the wrong word, but I think
Speaker 1: it would be very strange if they if they wouldn't
Speaker 1: have taken Trevor Lawrence. That's Peter King from the NBC
Speaker 1: Sports Group, Now on the Ozone podcast available in the
Speaker 1: official Jaguars podcast network. It went up this morning. Check
Speaker 1: it out free subscription. You can catch all our shows
Speaker 1: from Jaguars Broadcasting. There but a nice long conversation between
Speaker 1: Oshan and Peter King. I welcome back to Jaguars Happy
Speaker 1: r J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagerman, Glad you're along with
Speaker 1: us today. And that has been really the big talking
Speaker 1: point of the week logs is Urban Meyer's comments to
Speaker 1: Peter King on his podcast earlier in the week. You know,
Speaker 1: the question came up about can you really hear the
Speaker 1: football come out of a quarterback's hands, and he basically
Speaker 1: invited Peter to, hey, come listen to him the guy
Speaker 1: who's not you'll eat and then him and you'll hear
Speaker 1: the difference. And then the next question was, so, was
Speaker 1: there really any question you're taking Trevor Lawrence. He said, well,
Speaker 1: it feels like we're gonna go in that direction. Let
Speaker 1: the owner officially make that decision a little later, but
Speaker 1: we're headed in that direction. That's the most definitive statement
Speaker 1: any decision maker has had around here publicly. Is it
Speaker 1: uh shocking, No, not at all. It's not. It's not
Speaker 1: shocking because he finally said something. Well, he says something
Speaker 1: and uh, and that kind of goes a little bit
Speaker 1: against the grain as far as what the league actually
Speaker 1: wants from teams that have the first overall pick, because
Speaker 1: the league would surely like to have a little bit
Speaker 1: of suspense involved with the draft. But is there you know,
Speaker 1: there's no, there's not any suspense. But I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's a you go back a few years ago, and
Speaker 1: the contracts in some cases were already being negotiating at
Speaker 1: this point. You don't need to have that. And some
Speaker 1: people may ask, well, you know, why don't why doesn't
Speaker 1: the team go ahead and start the contract negotiations with
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Well, the the draft now is slotted. You
Speaker 1: know what the amount is going to be. It's not
Speaker 1: like it's a negotiation process where you can negotiate above
Speaker 1: and beyond a certain number. It's it's a fixed number.
Speaker 1: You know. So in the first round pick gets a
Speaker 1: percentage of your rookie pool, and then the second round
Speaker 1: pick gets another percentage of it. And some of the
Speaker 1: structure of the contract is negotiable, but for the most part,
Speaker 1: all of that stuff has been determined by the previous
Speaker 1: draft picks of previous classes and the percentages and such.
Speaker 1: We'll following suit. So there's not a whole lot to
Speaker 1: be done there. So I don't think it's any kind
Speaker 1: of earth shattering news, but it's I think it was
Speaker 1: pretty neat that Urban actually said that, just because it
Speaker 1: kind of goes against the grain of what the NFL
Speaker 1: typically has done. Well, you know, we're not sure. You know,
Speaker 1: we're we're still looking at the fields. And you know,
Speaker 1: the kid in North Dakota, Now that's a bunch of hogwash,
Speaker 1: you know, And that's what it was has been in
Speaker 1: the past. And look, Trevor Lawrence is um widely viewed
Speaker 1: as a a generational prospect and and everybody's looking forward
Speaker 1: to having him in Jacksonville. You know, he announced that
Speaker 1: he's not going to go to Cleveland for the draft.
Speaker 1: He'll be at Clemson watching the draft with family. Some
Speaker 1: some top prospects will go. The league has opened that up,
Speaker 1: but it sounds like Trevor is gonna do his own thing. Well,
Speaker 1: there's there's a couple I think opinions on that. One
Speaker 1: of them is it players should be grateful for the
Speaker 1: opportunity and thankful to the league because they're gonna be
Speaker 1: able to make millions of dollars and some fans believe that.
Speaker 1: And then the flip side of that is the players
Speaker 1: are that are being asked to go to the draft
Speaker 1: in Cleveland. They're not being compensated by the NFL. They
Speaker 1: would be compensated as far as whatever travel expenses that
Speaker 1: they would incur, but they're not being paid. And should
Speaker 1: the league pay prospects to participate in the draft. My
Speaker 1: opinion is yes, I mean why not? Does it not
Speaker 1: sell a product? Are they not selling the NFL Draft?
Speaker 1: And does the NFL not make money? And the networks
Speaker 1: don't they make money off of the broadcast of the draft.
Speaker 1: I think that they should pay the prospects to come.
Speaker 1: And would that change the mind of a young man
Speaker 1: like travel Lawrence. Maybe not, maybe not. Maybe he wants
Speaker 1: to spend that day showing the appreciation for the people
Speaker 1: that got them there. And I totally get that, totally
Speaker 1: get that, because if you can spend time at such
Speaker 1: a special moment with your family and friends and the
Speaker 1: people that got you there, why would you want to
Speaker 1: do something different and spend it with a bunch of
Speaker 1: people that you don't know, just so that maybe you
Speaker 1: could hug Roger Goodell. You have the photo op on stage. Look,
Speaker 1: I don't want a man hug Roger Goodell that dad.
Speaker 1: I mean for me, I'd rather spend it with family,
Speaker 1: and uh so good for Trevor. And another benefit of
Speaker 1: that too is that if he is in at Clemson
Speaker 1: for the draft spending it with family, then it's a
Speaker 1: very short plane ride from Jacksonville, Okay, to Clemson and
Speaker 1: then obviously my guess is the jet will be on
Speaker 1: the tarmac and Clemson and then after the pig has
Speaker 1: made hugs kisses, load up, some family come to Jacksonville,
Speaker 1: you know, so we'll see, we'll see. You know, it's
Speaker 1: one of those two who is was taglub with the
Speaker 1: commissioner when you were uh still Rose, I can't remember.
Speaker 1: I believe it was was Roselle, So that was it
Speaker 1: was rosel Yeah, so you know that because it was
Speaker 1: Jeff Lackman. Would you have gone though, like you select Jeff.
Speaker 1: This is before players even were a thing, and I
Speaker 1: probably would have gone just to go, just because I
Speaker 1: don't think that everybody was aware of where and what
Speaker 1: the draft has become. And I'm glad that I didn't
Speaker 1: get the opportunity because uh, they might have had to
Speaker 1: have security to protect me in New York, right, You know,
Speaker 1: I wasn't a very popular selection JP in New York
Speaker 1: to say the least. Absolutely love it, but I was
Speaker 1: you know at the time, I would have done it
Speaker 1: because I would have thought it would have been a rare,
Speaker 1: cool opportunity. And uh, like I said, I'm glad I
Speaker 1: didn't go, but at the same token, it would have
Speaker 1: been a pretty neat opportunity. Something different. Yeah, But today,
Speaker 1: I mean, look to get everything's changed. You know. Even
Speaker 1: there's a there's a class action lawsuit that's going on
Speaker 1: right now that is taking the n c A and
Speaker 1: the lead attorney is Jeffrey Custler, who actually lead the
Speaker 1: NFL Players Association in the ntry trust lawsuit, and and
Speaker 1: he is leading a group of players to go against
Speaker 1: the n c A. That that is actually I think
Speaker 1: gonna end up He's gonna win, and that's going to
Speaker 1: open the door for college players to be paid. So
Speaker 1: hang on because I think that's coming next and that
Speaker 1: that's that's the difference in awareness nowadays from what it was.
Speaker 1: And the other reality is JP, the the NFL Draft
Speaker 1: now is big business, big broadcast revenues, making a lot
Speaker 1: of money, and it's on multiple networks. And if something's
Speaker 1: on multiple networks, it's making pretty good money. You know,
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence will be the first pick, and you know
Speaker 1: he'll be sitting wherever he is in Clemson, whether it's
Speaker 1: the team facility or at his house or with his
Speaker 1: fiancee or whatever. Right, but there'll be a camera wherever
Speaker 1: he is. His people, I'm sure are already working on
Speaker 1: marketing deals for him in general, but for that night
Speaker 1: in particular, he better be drinking out of a dunkin
Speaker 1: Donuts coffee cup with the Nike shirt on or whatever
Speaker 1: like the NASCAR driver. Right, let's have everything sponsored and
Speaker 1: start getting some money flowing it. Why not? I mean,
Speaker 1: if you're the first overall pick in the draft, it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter where you're gonna land, whether it's Jacksonville, New
Speaker 1: York or whatever, You're gonna be a marketing figure. And
Speaker 1: if I'm working in Trevor Lawrence's camp, I'm getting all
Speaker 1: the money that I can for whatever sponsorship that I
Speaker 1: could for because is I guarantee there's gonna be cameras
Speaker 1: in Trevor Lawrence's house or wherever that he's gonna be
Speaker 1: at a Clemson and so it's a great opportunity to
Speaker 1: generate revenue off of that. Also, if you're in that camp,
Speaker 1: you're looking right now at copyrighting and and uh making
Speaker 1: sure that a lot of things in the future are
Speaker 1: taking care of. In other words, brought into the camp
Speaker 1: of Trevor Lawrence, whether it be Trevor Town, Trevorville, all
Speaker 1: these names, QB. Jack's, you know, whatever, anything that is
Speaker 1: attached with his name, Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville, any association.
Speaker 1: You're gonna try to go ahead and garner all of
Speaker 1: those entities and take them now, because at some point
Speaker 1: in the future you don't want somebody else capitalizing and
Speaker 1: making money off of your name because they were the
Speaker 1: ones that filed for the copyright and got it so
Speaker 1: or they can just go buy it from you. Because
Speaker 1: it sounds like you're already ahead of the game, Lugs,
Speaker 1: you probably already have all those done. The copy I've
Speaker 1: got all well, no, I mean, if I should have,
Speaker 1: I would not be surprised one bit if there has
Speaker 1: been some people that are not associated with Trevor Lawrence
Speaker 1: that have already tried to capitalize on his name and
Speaker 1: the association with Jacksonville, and I hope that Trevor Lawrence's
Speaker 1: camp has been aggressive and making sure that those things
Speaker 1: are going to be owned by them. There you haven't,
Speaker 1: so yeah. Catch the full Ozon podcast available in the

Speaker 1: Hour continues on this Thursday afternoon. We've got plenty to
Speaker 1: discuss around owners meetings and now you know there's proposed
Speaker 1: rule changes. We'll get to those in just a few minutes.
Speaker 1: But the league has sent a memo to clubs outlining
Speaker 1: the early part of the off season program. Just the
Speaker 1: start date correct now. The Jaguars were among the teams
Speaker 1: with a new coaching staff that were supposed to start
Speaker 1: in about a week's time from now next week. Basically
Speaker 1: that's no longer. Every team will start on the same date,
Speaker 1: April nineteenth, Phase one of the off season program can begin.
Speaker 1: That means players can work out of the team facility
Speaker 1: in small groups. Teams should also prepare to conduct meetings
Speaker 1: virtually when the off season program begins, all virtual and
Speaker 1: and and all virtual workout program is not expected, so
Speaker 1: they're expecting players on the field for organized team activities.
Speaker 1: There's no schedule for the start of those yet. The
Speaker 1: only Phase one has been scheduled. At least there's a
Speaker 1: date on the calendar. Froll and the reason why none
Speaker 1: of that has been scheduled is that that has to
Speaker 1: go through the negotiation process with ownership in the union.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty simple, and so the league just
Speaker 1: can't say, well, you know what, we're gonna start and
Speaker 1: do virtually for a week and then once we get
Speaker 1: into May, Okay, we're in person and we're good to go.
Speaker 1: That's all part of the process that's just got to
Speaker 1: take place. It's so volunteery though off season program, well,
Speaker 1: I mean it is, but I mean JP, I mean
Speaker 1: when it's when it's virtual, I mean it's it's the
Speaker 1: old rule of thunk, I'm busy doing things. Okay, you
Speaker 1: can choose to be a volunteer and have a job
Speaker 1: if you're a decent player. If you're an elite player,
Speaker 1: then yeah, you can choose not to volunteer and still
Speaker 1: have a job. But the reality is you're gonna get
Speaker 1: paid more even if you're an elite player if you're
Speaker 1: happy to volunteer. And so you know, and look, uh,
Speaker 1: you want to do the right thing, and so players
Speaker 1: that choose to volunteer and do the right thing are
Speaker 1: the ones that typically are the ones that end up
Speaker 1: making more money the long run anyway. So I just
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a question anymore with that JP.
Speaker 1: The one question I think that UH will be interesting
Speaker 1: is if you are a volunteer and you're doing everything virtually,
Speaker 1: do you get paid you're all season workout stuff, if
Speaker 1: you're doing things virtually, and I believe that they are.
Speaker 1: I thought last year, I think that they got paid
Speaker 1: for doing the virtual stuff that they should. I mean,
Speaker 1: they're putting the time in and it's not like it's
Speaker 1: a big money it's a standard amount that the players get.
Speaker 1: But at some point in the future I see the
Speaker 1: league and the players coming into an agreement. And I
Speaker 1: said this before to where instead of having because in
Speaker 1: the past, and to go back to your point real
Speaker 1: quick about how urban Meyer's new coach and new coaching
Speaker 1: staff could have an extra time that's not really neat anymore.
Speaker 1: And then back in the day when you had a
Speaker 1: new coach, you actually used to have the ability to
Speaker 1: start early and you could have up to three mini camps,
Speaker 1: two additional ones if you had a new staff. Okay,
Speaker 1: not not anymore. That they're just saying, okay, no, we're
Speaker 1: just gonna start everything and have it be the same
Speaker 1: and I think and I've said this earlier. Now. When
Speaker 1: I said earlier, I'm not talking earlier in the show.
Speaker 1: I'm talking to a couple of months ago. Is that
Speaker 1: I've pictured in the future this year that they would
Speaker 1: try to combine a lot of the all season into
Speaker 1: one gathering. And when I say into one gathering, you
Speaker 1: are you are allowed or have been allowed in the past,
Speaker 1: you would have fourteen o t A days and then
Speaker 1: you would have a mandatory mini camps. There's essentially seventeen
Speaker 1: days of on the field activity. My guess is is
Speaker 1: that at some point they will agree that, hey, look,
Speaker 1: let's just get the players and the coaches together to
Speaker 1: be on the grass for a week and let's bring
Speaker 1: them in. And at that point we may not all
Speaker 1: have the players tested, and they're not all gonna be
Speaker 1: not to test evact, they're not gonna have their their
Speaker 1: vaccination shots and everything, but at least we can kind
Speaker 1: of control it a little bit more. So they will
Speaker 1: bring in an actively test and try and maybe even
Speaker 1: try to vaccinate some of the players while they're there,
Speaker 1: and uh, and it makes it a little bit easier
Speaker 1: if you can kind of condense it down instead of
Speaker 1: trying to say, okay, let's let's just get back to
Speaker 1: normal and half our fourteen days and then our mandatory
Speaker 1: minicamp condense it down to where you have a short
Speaker 1: gathering for a short period of time and then do
Speaker 1: everything else virtually, and then I think it will work
Speaker 1: out a lot better that way for the league as
Speaker 1: a whole, that where you're not trying to coordinate a
Speaker 1: bunch of different gatherings. Because I mean, right now, JP,
Speaker 1: where do the NFL players fall when it comes the
Speaker 1: priority of being vaccinated? There? Yeah, most places, they're not
Speaker 1: twenty somethings. I mean twenty somethings. I mean, what are
Speaker 1: they going to get a vaccine? I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think fairly in Florida it's eighteen and up at
Speaker 1: some point very soon. So I mean, look, it's coming up.
Speaker 1: It hasn't happened yet. And if and if I understand correctly,
Speaker 1: right now in our area, the people that are in
Speaker 1: their fifties have have been eligible. Now the people that
Speaker 1: are in the forties now are now eligible. Okay, so
Speaker 1: you know how much time is it gonna take to
Speaker 1: where we get down into the NFL players, which is
Speaker 1: in their twenties. I don't know. In another instant conversation
Speaker 1: to you, you can't. The league is not going to
Speaker 1: impose this on the players. Still, you can't do that.
Speaker 1: You can't you can't make it mandatory. You can't make
Speaker 1: gives to organizations JP. The reality is is that the
Speaker 1: players are gonna want to be vaccinated because the restrictions
Speaker 1: if you're not are gonna be much different for the
Speaker 1: player that is unvaccinated. And uh, the amount of and
Speaker 1: and here's the thing. Okay, I can choose not and
Speaker 1: this is my guess how it would go. Okay, you
Speaker 1: can choose not to get a vaccine. Okay, but since
Speaker 1: you're choosing not to have a vaccine, you still now
Speaker 1: or you now have to undergo daily testing and you
Speaker 1: have different rules for um, if you have been exposed
Speaker 1: to somebody who is positive, you're gonna have to quarantine
Speaker 1: for X amount of time. And okay, well you can't discriminate.
Speaker 1: And it's a player who chooses not to have a vaccine.
Speaker 1: But I mean, if you're a general manager of coach
Speaker 1: and you're making decisions about roster and you've got a
Speaker 1: guy who you've got two players of the exact same
Speaker 1: type of player. One's vaccinated, one is not. Who are
Speaker 1: you gonna choose? Yeah, I mean, that's a vaccinated got
Speaker 1: to be in there, you know. So as a player,
Speaker 1: you know that you could fall into this category of
Speaker 1: that guy over there has got the same ability as me,
Speaker 1: and he's vaccinated. I don't want to be vaccinated. Well,
Speaker 1: but guess what he's gonna take my job if I
Speaker 1: don't get a vaccine. A strange time, it really is.
Speaker 1: Who never Who would have thought we would have been
Speaker 1: talking about this two years? I don't know, But here
Speaker 1: we are in the league, and the and the players
Speaker 1: and all that can sit there and say that, you know,
Speaker 1: the players that choose not to get a vaccine will
Speaker 1: not be discriminated against, and they're not gonna it's not
Speaker 1: gonna be held against them. They can say that all
Speaker 1: they want, but the reality is is that, I mean,
Speaker 1: NFELT is a business, and if you want to make
Speaker 1: good business decisions, you gotta make business decisions based on
Speaker 1: what the resources are that are available to you and
Speaker 1: how reliable and available they are. And if you have
Speaker 1: one players is unavailable because he doesn't have a vaccine,
Speaker 1: and if you can find the same type of player
Speaker 1: that has a vaccine. That's an easy decision to make.
Speaker 1: Let's go through some of these proposed rules changes. I
Speaker 1: feel like we do this every year around this time
Speaker 1: on this show. Let's start with there's eleven proposals from
Speaker 1: either the Competition Committee or teams around the league. And
Speaker 1: if you're watching on video on Jake Social, you're seeing
Speaker 1: on your screen. So number one is eliminate overtime and
Speaker 1: preseason games. That's from the Competition Committee. I feel like
Speaker 1: that will probably pass. Logs nobody likes over the dog's easy.
Speaker 1: That's an easy yes, we'll take the ties. That's fine.
Speaker 1: Number two, maximum number of players in the setup zone.
Speaker 1: It's a one year trial if it passes. This is
Speaker 1: a competition committee. This is on kickoffs. There's an area
Speaker 1: between restraining line and a fifteen yard window where they're
Speaker 1: trying to have a maximum number of guys close. Um,
Speaker 1: the current rules are just fine. Don't try to overcomplicate
Speaker 1: it by adding another rule there. Okay. Number three expand
Speaker 1: the prohibition on blocking below the waist by the offensive
Speaker 1: end defensive players beyond five yards on either side of
Speaker 1: the line and two yards outside the tackles. So basically
Speaker 1: expanding the anywhere outside, and and and and it's a
Speaker 1: small window. Now they're just that's a yes. But for me,
Speaker 1: and I can hear Basselly yelling in my ear gone,
Speaker 1: it's a bunch of hog washes. Part of the game football,
Speaker 1: it's part of player safety. You don't need cut blocks. Uh.
Speaker 1: I'm a yes on three. Number four permit replay officially
Speaker 1: and designated members of the officiating department to provide certain
Speaker 1: objective information to on field officials that we don't have
Speaker 1: the full detail on that just from the competition many
Speaker 1: there's another one later that would that's essentially adding a
Speaker 1: sky judge. So there's another one later that is that
Speaker 1: as well. So let's get to the club playing rule
Speaker 1: proposals now Number five from the Chicago Bears, ensuring enforcement
Speaker 1: of all accepted penalties committed by either team during successive
Speaker 1: try attempts. We're getting the weeds there a little bit.
Speaker 1: Number six at a Losso down for a second forward
Speaker 1: passion behind the line and for a beast thrown after
Speaker 1: the ball returns behind the line. That's from the l
Speaker 1: A Rams and there. This is the one that's been
Speaker 1: controversial in social media today. And I know you're a
Speaker 1: big Twitter guyalogs, but uh seven, expand jersey number options
Speaker 1: for certain positions. The Kansas City Chiefs have brought this
Speaker 1: to the table. They want defensive backs, linebackers, running backs
Speaker 1: to where to be allowed to wear single digit numbers. Um,
Speaker 1: I don't understand why that's an issue. The only numbers
Speaker 1: that they need to kind of make sure that there
Speaker 1: are restrictions on on the offensive linemen. Everybody else should
Speaker 1: be able to well wear whatever the hell they want.
Speaker 1: That's basically what this is proposing. She's the way it
Speaker 1: should be. I don't what's the problem with social media?
Speaker 1: I don't. Well, no, I don't. I'm not. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of people for that. There's a lot of people
Speaker 1: for single digit defensive linemen and all that stuff, right,
Speaker 1: So what's wrong with the system now? Because because it limits,
Speaker 1: it limits and it restricts the number of jersey numbers.
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got a bunch of numbers that aren't
Speaker 1: being utilized and in single digits, and you have rosters
Speaker 1: that are gonna be expanded. We're now you have guys
Speaker 1: in training camp that are wearing well, you know what,
Speaker 1: he's defensive forty three, and we have an offensive forty three. Well,
Speaker 1: if we would make a single digit available, we wouldn't
Speaker 1: have two forty three's and JP it might make Joe
Speaker 1: fort Sinado's job as a spot or easier. You know,
Speaker 1: Joe's a spot or in the booth. He's got old eyes.
Speaker 1: Now you know he's gets two numbers. He can't tell
Speaker 1: the difference between one guy that's on offense or defense.
Speaker 1: And you know you're calling, okay, the guy on put team. Okay,
Speaker 1: Well is that offensive forty three or defensive? And I
Speaker 1: like single digits, man, Single digits are cool. Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: just right right now. It's punters, kickers, and quarterbacks to
Speaker 1: the only places. Just don't don't bring the number zero
Speaker 1: in the NFL. They did that in college football last year.
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan. That's just me. That's personal preference.
Speaker 1: But leave that in college. If you don't number you're
Speaker 1: making an issue out of that. I'm not a fan
Speaker 1: of anyway. Alright, Number eight, change options for a winner
Speaker 1: of an overtime coin toss and create a true sudden
Speaker 1: death format. Baltimore and Philadelphia brought that one. There's another one,
Speaker 1: number nine coming up as well. That's another overtime option,
Speaker 1: change possibility, change the options for the winner of the
Speaker 1: coin toss, Eliminate sudden death format, eliminate overtime in the preseason.
Speaker 1: That's all from Baltimore. And then number ten, excuse me,
Speaker 1: number ten permitted team to maintain possession of the ball
Speaker 1: after a score. This is the onside kick rule, by
Speaker 1: substituting one offensive play a fourth and fifth team from
Speaker 1: the kicking teams twenty five in place of an on
Speaker 1: side kick attempt. The Eagles are bringing that. What do
Speaker 1: you don't like that? No, it's not traditional football, but
Speaker 1: there's no run up anymore. There's no run up on kickoffs,
Speaker 1: so it's made on side kicks. Really tough? Okay, well,
Speaker 1: that's fine. Stop him earlier in the game where you
Speaker 1: don't have to depend on an onside kick. I mean
Speaker 1: it's I mean on side kick is an onside kick?
Speaker 1: Are currently in in in in use? Make an onside
Speaker 1: kick harder, well, play better earlier in the game and
Speaker 1: you won't have to onside kick. Seriously, I mean, uh,
Speaker 1: get into the situation. Yeah, but you want you know,
Speaker 1: Judge number eleven an eighth official positions somewhere other than
Speaker 1: the field with full communication on field officials and access
Speaker 1: to a monitor, yeah, which is if you're trying to
Speaker 1: make the game right, okay, And and the view of
Speaker 1: the game because everybody at home gets to see what's
Speaker 1: on TV. So why shouldn't you have the ability to
Speaker 1: have somebody that can see in the TV monitors what
Speaker 1: should or should not be on their couches, Like look
Speaker 1: right there, now, I think I think that's a sky
Speaker 1: judge should have parameters about what he can and cannot
Speaker 1: provide input on what judgment calls. Leave that to the
Speaker 1: guys on the field that are in the action. Yes, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: he like he could have a voice, and he doesn't
Speaker 1: make he doesn't make the call, but he can't come
Speaker 1: in and say, oh, that was past interference. No no, no, no, yeah,
Speaker 1: but but he should be able to say that that
Speaker 1: ball hit the ground before the catch, his foot was
Speaker 1: out of bounds and then not have to go to
Speaker 1: replay and then have you know, challenges and all this
Speaker 1: other stuff. We'll see a couple of weeks away from
Speaker 1: the league owners voting on some of those proposed and
Speaker 1: we'll come back at a moment we'll go around speaking
Speaker 1: of the league, the National Football there was a big
Speaker 1: trade in the last week. Yes, yes, the big train,
Speaker 1: a couple of big trades, raft picks flying out the door,
Speaker 1: and we're just kicked back with our legs up, not
Speaker 1: worried about the carnage and the rear view. Well, there's
Speaker 1: there's one thing though, the Jaguars I think better be
Speaker 1: aware of, and that they need to be thinking about
Speaker 1: trading some picks themselves. We'll get to that coming up

Speaker 1: J Be Shadrick, Jeff Lachman coming down the home stretch
Speaker 1: here on Jaguars Happy Hour. And as we started the
Speaker 1: show logs we were, we referenced April Fools Day well
Speaker 1: around the league. As we start our look around the
Speaker 1: National Football League, a couple of NFL players are getting
Speaker 1: in on the act, including George Kittle, the forty Niners
Speaker 1: tight end. He put out a tweet earlier today. It
Speaker 1: says next chapter, thanks to the faithful for all the
Speaker 1: support hashtag do all, And there's a photoshopped image of
Speaker 1: him in a Jaguars jersey on it. Uh, wouldn't that
Speaker 1: be nice? I'm gonna I'm guessing it's an April Fools jo.
Speaker 1: I haven't heard anything otherwise. I haven't got an email
Speaker 1: on that. That would be pretty awesome. Make you think, right,
Speaker 1: what do you old? You have to give up for that?
Speaker 1: A lot? A lot? But the forty Niners might be
Speaker 1: interested in finding some future draft picks to be able
Speaker 1: to replace all that they gave up to move up
Speaker 1: to the third overall pick, and the draft. There was
Speaker 1: a lot going on this never last week. So yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the first time we've had a chance to discuss
Speaker 1: all that. The Niners moved from twelve to three, Dolphins
Speaker 1: down to twelve, didn't they move five minutes later back
Speaker 1: up to six. The Eagles go down to twelve, and
Speaker 1: all hell is breaking loose behind the Jags in the
Speaker 1: top ten. The Jags I ought to worry about it,
Speaker 1: which is great, Well, I mean it's it's great, but uh,
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna make the top of the draft
Speaker 1: extremely intriguing because nobody knows for sure exactly what the
Speaker 1: Jets are gonna do it. Too. Many people have an
Speaker 1: expectation they're going to take a quarterback from b y U.
Speaker 1: But now, what are the forty Niners gonna do it? Three?
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a quarterback, because you don't give up
Speaker 1: that much equity to move up to three overall unless
Speaker 1: it's going to be a quarterback. But who And so
Speaker 1: that provides a little bit of intrigue, a little less
Speaker 1: intrigue with number two but still it's intrigue and uh,
Speaker 1: if I'm the Jaguars JP, to be perfectly honest with you,
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about packaging some of my picks that I
Speaker 1: have this year because you have obviously the multiple number
Speaker 1: ones and you've got the multiple number two. I'm thinking
Speaker 1: about trading them away for more or higher future picks.
Speaker 1: And the reason why twofold one, you already had an
Speaker 1: extremely young roster. You're only gonna be able to fill
Speaker 1: so many holes. But by trading away picks from this
Speaker 1: year to future years, you're moving up. So if you
Speaker 1: trade a number two this year, typically you can get
Speaker 1: a number one next year. This football team needs one
Speaker 1: or just a it depends on you know how bad
Speaker 1: you're gonna be. But the reason why is that this
Speaker 1: year I think is extremely tough for personnel departments to
Speaker 1: make sound decisions. I don't want to say that they're unsound,
Speaker 1: but you're not gathering as much information or pieces of
Speaker 1: the polof you have had the opportunity to gather in
Speaker 1: years past. For examp ample, there's some players you're scouting
Speaker 1: that did not play football and they have taken a
Speaker 1: snap since the seasons. There's some that uh, you haven't
Speaker 1: been able to talk to in person. There's some that
Speaker 1: you're not having the combine to evaluate their medical So
Speaker 1: if you can trade current picks for future picks to
Speaker 1: get back to more normalcy, you're gonna be able to
Speaker 1: make more informed decisions in the future. And I think
Speaker 1: you have to consider trading current picks this year for
Speaker 1: future picks in two and in bye by having the
Speaker 1: full scouting process back and play, which is expected for
Speaker 1: there wouldn't that make the most sense though, in like
Speaker 1: mid rounds of the draft, Like you need first and
Speaker 1: second round draft picks on your roster now, like to
Speaker 1: to get those guys going, and you'll have a lot
Speaker 1: of information on those guys. But later in the draft, four,
Speaker 1: fifth round, sixth round, you know you're digging a little deeper. Yeah, no, no,
Speaker 1: I totally understand. But from this roster, you have to
Speaker 1: go play this year if if I can, if I
Speaker 1: can give up a late second round pick this year
Speaker 1: for a first round pick in twenty all day long,
Speaker 1: all day long. I'm not I mean, you can take
Speaker 1: a late second round and move up in the first
Speaker 1: round all I mean, why wouldn't you do that? I mean,
Speaker 1: if we're take a third round pick and move up
Speaker 1: into round two. I mean, I mean for me, because
Speaker 1: here's the reality. Even though you may have the best
Speaker 1: scouting department in the in the universe, it's still it's
Speaker 1: still a gamble. The draft is still a gamble. And
Speaker 1: if you evaluate the draft from a percentage of standpoint,
Speaker 1: if you're doing, if you're if you're hitting, you're one
Speaker 1: of the best in the league. I mean, And even
Speaker 1: first round picks are about a proposition. And then as
Speaker 1: you get further into the draft, in rounds two, three,
Speaker 1: the percentages dropped, and they drop dropped dramatically. So why
Speaker 1: wouldn't you increase and from a number standpoint, why wouldn't
Speaker 1: you increase your probability of having success by trading into
Speaker 1: into the future for more picks to increase your percentages
Speaker 1: of success? Just a thought. Okay, that is the Jeff
Speaker 1: Logoman soapbox for the day, And you would have more
Speaker 1: information to make those decisions on. That's a positive, Jeff Lockman,
Speaker 1: the soapbox of the day. Trade all the picks away
Speaker 1: for all of them, he said, I heard it, Not
Speaker 1: all of them they gave here for eleven draft picks,
Speaker 1: they get three. They traded eight of them away. I
Speaker 1: would I would love if you've got eleven right now
Speaker 1: and you end up with seven seven and you four.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm all for it for the next year. I'm
Speaker 1: all for it. Okay, let's continue our look around the league.
Speaker 1: There's some drama now in the Los Angeles Chargers ownership group.
Speaker 1: Apparently one of the sisters of the the Spano's family
Speaker 1: has They all have fifteen percent. There's four of them,
Speaker 1: and then there's the family trust that owns thirty of
Speaker 1: the team. Well, one of the sisters says the trust
Speaker 1: is deeply in debt and the only way to pay
Speaker 1: off the debt is to sell the team. Well, the
Speaker 1: three other siblings issued a statement today. Here's the quote. Blogs,
Speaker 1: you'll get a kick out of this quote. Our sister
Speaker 1: Dia seems to have a different and misguided personal agenda.
Speaker 1: If Da no longer wishes to be a part of
Speaker 1: this family legacy, the three of us stand ready to
Speaker 1: purchase her share of the franchise, as our agreements give
Speaker 1: us the right to do drama indeed for the Chargers.
Speaker 1: Are you sure it's Dia not d I don't know.
Speaker 1: D d e A and her brother's name is d Dean,
Speaker 1: so why wouldn't her name just be d. It's probably
Speaker 1: d um. She's claiming that the trust is about nearly
Speaker 1: four million dollars in debt and there's no way to
Speaker 1: recoup UH and UH to keep it afloat unless they
Speaker 1: sell the team. And the name Bezos has been bannied
Speaker 1: about about a potential buyer for the l A Charger.
Speaker 1: So that was kind of interesting to me just from
Speaker 1: an ownership standpoint. I didn't know the Dean span it
Speaker 1: was only a stakeholder in that team, and that a
Speaker 1: lot of family members had ownership. Interesting. His name is
Speaker 1: the one that always out there is the owner of
Speaker 1: the Chargers, but is a family affair. J P. I
Speaker 1: will I will say this, The l A Chargers are
Speaker 1: known around the league as being one of the cheapest
Speaker 1: franchises in the NFL. As far as far as spending
Speaker 1: UH money on resources to have success, from what many
Speaker 1: would view as resources to have success, scouting, coaching, UM
Speaker 1: scouting services, the Chargers UH skimp a little bit in
Speaker 1: all those areas. Very well known. We have reached the
Speaker 1: conclusion logs. We'll talk to you again next week. Look
Speaker 1: forward to it. Jeff Lockman all right, Joe Fortunado on
Speaker 1: the audio side as always, and today Blake Stewart steps
Speaker 1: in on video. I'm JP Shadrick will catch you next time.
