Speaker 1: It's Thursday, March eleventh day. This is Jaguars Happy Hour.
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour is presented by du Balm owner Company.
Speaker 1: And now a guy who shot up Bertie too, he
Speaker 1: goes and a duck this afternoon. J P. Shadrick, Who
Speaker 1: did that? Jo? Who that one? George Carlin? Of course,
Speaker 1: welcome in jack Uars Happy Hour. My name's j. P.
Speaker 1: Shadrick and we have a programmed for you today. Here's
Speaker 1: what's coming up on said program. Urban Meyer and Trent
Speaker 1: Vaulky reaction. The head coach and the gm both spoke
Speaker 1: with the media this week, and out of those availabilities,
Speaker 1: we found out that the offensive line could remain intact
Speaker 1: this year. The defense is a bit of a rebuild though,
Speaker 1: starting up front the back end as well. They're looking
Speaker 1: for playmakers on offense, aren't we all? And we'll go
Speaker 1: around the National Football League with us in person today
Speaker 1: is Jaguars analyst Jeff Logerman and logs it is good
Speaker 1: to see a man. What's sounds good to be seen.
Speaker 1: That's like the best time. I mean, you're you're above ground.
Speaker 1: It's good. It's all good, no doubt. A lot going on.
Speaker 1: I mean, we're a week away, inside a week away
Speaker 1: from the start of the league year and free agency.
Speaker 1: They finally figured out what the salary cap is gonna be,
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of moving parts. So we called
Speaker 1: it the the hot stove of the off season. That's
Speaker 1: a baseball term, but it's the same idea in the NFL.
Speaker 1: This is the time of year or everybody's either getting
Speaker 1: cut or resigned or free agency is about to begin,
Speaker 1: and finally big offseason news is here. Finally, locks. I mean, look,
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's about time we get there, you know,
Speaker 1: because sometimes it seems like you're never gonna get the
Speaker 1: free agency. I'm glad that the league came out and
Speaker 1: find only stopped messing around and trying to figure out
Speaker 1: exactly what the salary cap is gonna be, and now
Speaker 1: teams can start making decisions. And now you're starting to
Speaker 1: see movement. And the reason I say that is because
Speaker 1: this team doesn't need to do the movement, but the
Speaker 1: movement affects them and what their ability as far as
Speaker 1: bringing the movement in. So uh so, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: that's good. And I think that there's been a lot
Speaker 1: of evaluation on some players that maybe they were hoping
Speaker 1: to get and then with the tags that have been
Speaker 1: announced so far, there's probably a little bit of disappointment
Speaker 1: on some guys that are not going to be available,
Speaker 1: and that's part of it. Leonard Williams, I'm sure would
Speaker 1: I'd like they have had him. It would have been nice.
Speaker 1: So so that's good. I mean, it's a good time
Speaker 1: of year. It's the fun time of the year because
Speaker 1: you know what here here, here's I was just talking
Speaker 1: to James coming in, you know James, and James, James
Speaker 1: works the front desk, and and uh, it's always good
Speaker 1: to talk to James, and and he was asking me,
Speaker 1: you know, what do you think about this team and
Speaker 1: what what's the first thing that they're going to be doing.
Speaker 1: And my opinion is is that this is such a
Speaker 1: young roster that you're gonna get better in the next
Speaker 1: couple of weeks in free agency, and you need to
Speaker 1: you need to address your roster to get some some
Speaker 1: proven playmaking ability because the draft is great, no doubt,
Speaker 1: but this is gonna be a buyer's market for people
Speaker 1: that do have money to spend, which this team is
Speaker 1: going to be one of them, and this team needs
Speaker 1: proven playmakers to go along with this young roster to
Speaker 1: help this young roster grow. So busy week here in Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: Of course, urban Meyer spoke with the media on Tuesday
Speaker 1: and then actually on Wednesday sat down with the Jack's
Speaker 1: business staff in the stadium for a discussion about his
Speaker 1: history his family coaching tendants. Is really a cool thing
Speaker 1: for the business side to be able to interact a
Speaker 1: lot with with urban Meyer yesterday, and then the Trent
Speaker 1: Balky spoken a video conference yesterday as well. Let's start
Speaker 1: though from Rban Myers press conference on Tuesday. It is
Speaker 1: a different feeling set up this year between personnel and
Speaker 1: the coaching staff. So you have great respect for the
Speaker 1: ones that dive deep. You know, it's it's not recruiting,
Speaker 1: and I understand the difference, but um free agency to
Speaker 1: me is a labor intensive m proposition that means that
Speaker 1: the hardest working, the deepest digging stabs a lot like recruiting,
Speaker 1: they get the best players. Ultimately, the tight end coach
Speaker 1: is response for who walks in that room, and he's
Speaker 1: going to utilize every resource. And that's called scouts, that's
Speaker 1: called scouting directors, that's called a general managers, called a
Speaker 1: head coach and coordinator and they're gonna do a deep dive.
Speaker 1: It's also called zoom calls and finding out as much
Speaker 1: as he can about that person walking in his his
Speaker 1: unit room. So that's the way we go about a business. Ultimately,
Speaker 1: it's a position. Position coach is going to have a
Speaker 1: heavy hand and who comes in there. Yet Trent and
Speaker 1: his staff obviously are the number one resource we use.
Speaker 1: So it's a different feeling set up than what a
Speaker 1: lot of times happens in the NFL. That LOGS feels
Speaker 1: like a college recruiting set up where the position coach
Speaker 1: really leads the way. I wouldn't say it's like a
Speaker 1: so much like a college set up, but it's different
Speaker 1: and it's certainly different than what has been around the
Speaker 1: stadium for many years. And what I mean by that
Speaker 1: is that urban's talking about the tight ends coach will
Speaker 1: determine who is in that room, and that the scouts
Speaker 1: are gonna be resources, and that they're gonna be doing
Speaker 1: a deep dive into obviously the decision making process and
Speaker 1: in the personnel to be able to come to that conclusion.
Speaker 1: In years past, for the most part, around here, it's
Speaker 1: been personnel going here's your guys, coaches, and go ahead
Speaker 1: and coach them up. And uh, you know, even though
Speaker 1: if you're making chicken salad what we just gave you pork,
Speaker 1: make it work work. I mean, so I think this
Speaker 1: is kind of it's it's interesting and it's a little
Speaker 1: bit different to hear that the coaches tell saying basically
Speaker 1: that the position coaches are gonna have a lot of
Speaker 1: say so as far as the decision making and who
Speaker 1: comes in. And I kind of interpreted it from free
Speaker 1: agency and also from the draft and that the resources
Speaker 1: the quote number one resources Trent balky and his staff.
Speaker 1: So uh, this clearly a lot of people were kind
Speaker 1: of speculating is urban Meyer holding the power? And obviously
Speaker 1: this tells you that the coaching staff and Trent Balky
Speaker 1: is is a resource and and that's there's nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with that. Trent Balky is gonna be a valuable person
Speaker 1: to this organization because he's the one that's got the
Speaker 1: knowledge and and the time and the commitment, uh more
Speaker 1: so than coaches, because coaches are gonna be coaching when
Speaker 1: it comes to the fall. But Trent Balky is gonna
Speaker 1: give that information to the coaches. Then they're all gonna
Speaker 1: work together, but the coach is gonna be the one
Speaker 1: that's going to be making that final determination on who's
Speaker 1: in that room. And I just find that it's different.
Speaker 1: You know, it's different. And Trent Balky is a is
Speaker 1: a proven commodity and uh and and here's the thing. Uh,
Speaker 1: if you're a resource, you've gotta be spot on. And
Speaker 1: so even though you sit there and you say, okay,
Speaker 1: well the coaches one that's making the decision, But if
Speaker 1: you're getting the information from Trent Balking his staff, you know, well,
Speaker 1: who's really making the decision. It's kind of it's kind
Speaker 1: of both, but ultimately the position coaches the guy who
Speaker 1: has the ultimate say. So that's different than it's been
Speaker 1: here in the past. And you know, actually Urban said
Speaker 1: the other day that a new higher, a fairly new higher,
Speaker 1: Ryan Stamford will have a voice on draft night in
Speaker 1: the draft room as well. I thought that was a
Speaker 1: really interesting some of the quotes he had on that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, Stanford is from here in Jacksonville. What's
Speaker 1: the first coach? High school um and then went to
Speaker 1: the University of Florida, played linebacker on two national championship
Speaker 1: teams and was at Ohio State with Urban as player development.
Speaker 1: It was assistant athletic director or associate athletic director towards
Speaker 1: the end of his time in Columbus. So he's here
Speaker 1: director of player Assessment to make sure that title, you
Speaker 1: know the way, have you ever heard that title? I
Speaker 1: have not, not in the NFL. No, No. I mean,
Speaker 1: and and essentially, what Ryan Stamper is from what Urban
Speaker 1: said is that Ryan Stamper is gonna make sure that
Speaker 1: the players that we acquire are a fit and uh
Speaker 1: a culture fit. So, I mean, I think there's a
Speaker 1: lot of different ways to describe it. I mean there's culturally,
Speaker 1: there's physically, I mean, all all of the above. JP
Speaker 1: I think is is what that falls underneath. So Ryan
Speaker 1: Stamper is gonna have a tremendous amount of sway as
Speaker 1: far as how this roster is shaped and the opinions
Speaker 1: that will get shaped, as far as the information that
Speaker 1: gets brought to the coaches. So Ryan's gonna make sure
Speaker 1: that these are the guys that we need to have
Speaker 1: that are good for our program. They're gonna have a
Speaker 1: positive impact, They're gonna make those around him better. Uh So.
Speaker 1: Uh but it's unique. I've just I've never heard that title,
Speaker 1: and I'm not I'm not saying that in a in
Speaker 1: a derogatory way. I'm saying and that I'm it's it's difference.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's just different, and and it could be
Speaker 1: really positive if, uh, if Ryan Stamper has a great
Speaker 1: feel for for those character traits that you always look for,
Speaker 1: because I'm just telling you, look, if you can find
Speaker 1: the Klaiss Campbell type guys, the Josh Alan type of
Speaker 1: guys that are committed, that are professional, that are good people,
Speaker 1: that do things the right way, that are coachable, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's what you want for your program. And also the
Speaker 1: great leaders to go along with him, no doubt about that.
Speaker 1: And we've heard nothing but great things about Ryan Stamper.
Speaker 1: I haven't had a chance to meet him in person yet,
Speaker 1: but he's from here, know people that know him, and
Speaker 1: and it's uh, it should be a really good higher
Speaker 1: for the Jaguars organization. Now, let's hear from general as
Speaker 1: you're Trent Balky, he spoke on Wednesday. Two and a
Speaker 1: half million dollars is the cap this year, down eight
Speaker 1: percent from a year ago, and lungs as you said
Speaker 1: a second ago. That can help the Jaguars cause with
Speaker 1: players that might not be on the market normally now
Speaker 1: starting to flood the market. But the question for Balky
Speaker 1: the other day yesterday was do you gonna do you
Speaker 1: have to spend all the money this year or are
Speaker 1: you gonna plan to spread it out for the future.
Speaker 1: But we figured it would be somewhere between one eight
Speaker 1: one five, and that's what we planned on as far
Speaker 1: as spending. Uh, you know, we're we're always gonna look
Speaker 1: to push the envelope and spend spend to the cap
Speaker 1: on a three year rolling cycle, whether you're above or below,
Speaker 1: but on over a three year period, hoping to spend
Speaker 1: to the camp. And we have an ownership that's willing
Speaker 1: to do that, and and and we want to do that,
Speaker 1: so uh, we're gonna we're gonna use the dollars. I
Speaker 1: spoke earlier about value. I think value is critical. You know,
Speaker 1: you have to get the value of the players right.
Speaker 1: And uh, you just like building a stock portfolio. If
Speaker 1: you if you get a bunch of overpay you know
Speaker 1: overprais stocks, you buy high and sell low. Eventually that
Speaker 1: catches up with you. So get the checkbook ready lugs.
Speaker 1: It feels like they're gonna spend some money next year.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that, but I would say that I
Speaker 1: think the impression is first. The most important information piece
Speaker 1: of information there is that ownership has quote just kind
Speaker 1: of I guess you could say, this is uh, summarizing
Speaker 1: from what Trent Bulky said, that ownership has given them
Speaker 1: the ability to spend the cap, and so they're totally
Speaker 1: okay with doing whatever it takes to build a winner.
Speaker 1: But you don't spend of the cap just to spend
Speaker 1: of the cap. Look, I mean, JP, I'd love to
Speaker 1: pay you to start left tackle and give you twenty millions.
Speaker 1: You're not uh you know, you you're not even worth minimum.
Speaker 1: So we're not gonna give you a franchise twenty million
Speaker 1: because you're you stink, you're not very good at left tackle.
Speaker 1: So my point is is that you you want to
Speaker 1: spend to the cap, but you have to have justification
Speaker 1: to spend of the cap, which is where Trent Balky's
Speaker 1: talking about value, which means you need to find the
Speaker 1: players that that tell you you're getting what the value is. So,
Speaker 1: in other words, if you're paying somebody fifteen million a year.
Speaker 1: You're getting fifteen million a year and performed on that investment.
Speaker 1: And if you're spending five million on another guy, and
Speaker 1: if you can get ten million in performance, there's your value.
Speaker 1: So you've got to be able to make sure that
Speaker 1: you're getting a return on investment or r o I.
Speaker 1: It's a term jp that you might understand. If you
Speaker 1: get r o I as a general manager, you're doing
Speaker 1: your job and you're doing it very well, and so
Speaker 1: you may not be spending the cap in year one,
Speaker 1: and essentially it may take a number of years for
Speaker 1: you to spend to the cap because you're rolling dollars
Speaker 1: over and you also have a young quarterback expected to
Speaker 1: be in so that obviously impacts the team. But yeah,
Speaker 1: if you if you have the permission from ownership to
Speaker 1: spend the cap. I mean, you're talking about a franchise
Speaker 1: that can compete. You just need to make sure you
Speaker 1: find the guys that are valued at that dollar amount
Speaker 1: to make you compete. We have plenty ahead and it
Speaker 1: includes the offensive line. We'll get into the Cam Robinson
Speaker 1: franchise tag Andrew Norwell. Sounds like those guys could be around.

Speaker 1: for free agency. You can't find access like that anywhere
Speaker 1: else in coverage of the Jacksonville Jaguars, so check it
Speaker 1: out tonight. It will be archive. But at they've used
Speaker 1: seven o'clock this evening. That's gonna be fun. Logs can't
Speaker 1: which it's it's gonna be really good, And um I
Speaker 1: think I think it helps because I really believe that
Speaker 1: the building a fan base is all about building an interest,
Speaker 1: and interest is by providing good product, which is a
Speaker 1: good team on the field and on also great access
Speaker 1: in Irban Meyer having I'll spend some time the media
Speaker 1: business is not shy about participating with some of these things.
Speaker 1: And obviously he's not going to be uh letting you
Speaker 1: look at their their draft ranking board and saying, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: they got Trevor Lawrence right there at number one. Look
Speaker 1: at that. You know you're not gonna see that, but look, uh,
Speaker 1: it's it's pretty cool stuff. And uh and uh, I
Speaker 1: really don't know if you're gonna be able to get
Speaker 1: that from any other team in the National Football League
Speaker 1: like this. I mean, that's that's pretty impressive. There are
Speaker 1: a few doings similar, but this is, uh, this is
Speaker 1: next level stuff and and it'll be every and I
Speaker 1: will say that, look at it takes a lot of
Speaker 1: trust to to uh to do something like this and
Speaker 1: uh and the Jaguars have uh not to give him
Speaker 1: a big head or anything, but the Jaguars have some
Speaker 1: great people and some great people that can be trusted
Speaker 1: and uh and given the access and be trusted with
Speaker 1: the content and the information that's being put out and
Speaker 1: and I think it's it's gonna be amazing for this
Speaker 1: organization and for the fan base to be able to
Speaker 1: have that kind of access. I think it's gonna be tremendous.
Speaker 1: Let's get to the offensive line. I'm gonna watch it.
Speaker 1: It sounds like you are and you know what, I
Speaker 1: will too, and all of you should as well. It's
Speaker 1: tonight at seven o'clock on the Jags YouTube channel. Offensive
Speaker 1: Line big part of the media conferences. The other day,
Speaker 1: Cam Robinson this franchise tagged and after the salary cap
Speaker 1: number was finalized, it's just under fourteen million dollars the
Speaker 1: tag number. Let's hear from Urban Meyer and he likes
Speaker 1: what Cam Robinson has to offer. He has a great future.
Speaker 1: His ceiling is very high. I've studied him very much.
Speaker 1: I spent some time with him. Uh. We feel that
Speaker 1: the way this free agency, these free agency is moving
Speaker 1: is that left tackle position as always, but even more
Speaker 1: now this year from hearing from the guys who have
Speaker 1: been in an NFL, this is a tough year for
Speaker 1: that left tackle position. And we feel just what's out
Speaker 1: there and with coaching, culture and development. Cam Cam has
Speaker 1: a lot of talent. So that's Herban Meyer on the
Speaker 1: Jags left tackle. It is a lot of money, just
Speaker 1: under fourteen million for a year, and it sounds like
Speaker 1: Urban said otherwise in that press conference that they want
Speaker 1: him around here for a while too, not just the
Speaker 1: one year. Well, I think also you you also can
Speaker 1: and for some other things there and he says, look,
Speaker 1: you know the way that the market is now, our
Speaker 1: way the position is now, because look, your decision making
Speaker 1: is always based upon can you do better elsewhere? Right? Sure?
Speaker 1: Because if you can do better elsewhere, and I don't
Speaker 1: care if you're TB twelve, if you can do better
Speaker 1: than Tom Brady, you're gonna go get better than Tom Brady.
Speaker 1: And there's not much better than Tom Brady. I know
Speaker 1: what you mean, but my point being is that if
Speaker 1: you and do better, you're gonna do better. And with
Speaker 1: the market, when he said they look at it, you
Speaker 1: know they evaluated it. And Trent Williams is probably gonna
Speaker 1: get tagged in San Francisco. There's not a lot out there.
Speaker 1: The draft may not have a lot of the high
Speaker 1: level left tackle prospects that that they think or that
Speaker 1: they believe that they can get. And here's the other thing,
Speaker 1: Cam Robinson. I love a lot of things about Cam Robinson. Tough,
Speaker 1: he's physical, he finishes. He's got some things that he
Speaker 1: needs to fix that have been well talked about, some
Speaker 1: of the footwork issues. But but he's got the things
Speaker 1: that are the most important, which is the commitment to
Speaker 1: drive and the toughness to be able to continue to
Speaker 1: get better. And those are the things that I think
Speaker 1: that that coach probably likes about Cam Robinson, and obviously
Speaker 1: George Warhop likes about Cam Robinson. So and here's the
Speaker 1: other thing. The when you franchise tag him, it's not
Speaker 1: like you're paying him twenty million dollars, is okay, We're
Speaker 1: not paying JP twenty million dollars to replace Cam Robinson. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're paying him what is it thirteen just under fourteen? Okay,
Speaker 1: thirteen and change or blow un fourteen. And that's not
Speaker 1: a lot of money for a left tackle. Because if
Speaker 1: you had to go and pay in free agency for
Speaker 1: a guy, you're gonna pay a lot more than that.
Speaker 1: And and so it gives you the opportunity if you
Speaker 1: do not extend him for the long term to at
Speaker 1: least to see where he ends up after another year
Speaker 1: of developing to then make a determination. And at that point,
Speaker 1: the determination that you make at that point will be
Speaker 1: where is he at? And then assess where is he
Speaker 1: at compared to what's gonna be available in free agency
Speaker 1: and what's gonna be available in the draft next year.
Speaker 1: And it gives an opportunity for him to play in
Speaker 1: a most likely new offense with a new quarterback and
Speaker 1: maybe a new situation in games they're not trailing, maybe
Speaker 1: as much, hopefully, and he's getting pass Russians all game
Speaker 1: long a lot of times when you're behind the circumstance
Speaker 1: of the game might help the tackle Asian too. Well,
Speaker 1: you hope, I mean, you hope. I mean the reality
Speaker 1: is to so you gotta You're gonna have a very
Speaker 1: different team this year with the first year NFL coach,
Speaker 1: with a more than likely rookie quarterback who hasn't played
Speaker 1: down in the National Football League. And that's a that's
Speaker 1: a lot to sit there and to to expect them
Speaker 1: to all of a sudden change the way that the
Speaker 1: games go. Let me look at this past year was
Speaker 1: horrendous as far as how the games went you should
Speaker 1: be better, you should be more competitive, And I think
Speaker 1: that's the point you're talking about. You want them to
Speaker 1: be in a better situation where the team is more
Speaker 1: competitive in every game, which takes a little bit of
Speaker 1: that pressure off of your tackles having a past protect
Speaker 1: because that's where they did not perform very well, was
Speaker 1: in they were when they were in obvious past protecting situations.
Speaker 1: That's where your tackles did not perform where you needed
Speaker 1: them to perform. Urban also on Tuesday, said that he
Speaker 1: loves Andrew Norwell, and if you ask all to the
Speaker 1: fan base, they may not agree with that, but Norwell
Speaker 1: was at Ohio State. Urban Meyer inherited him when he
Speaker 1: showed up in Columbus and said that Norwell was the
Speaker 1: really a big piece of turning that offensive line at
Speaker 1: Ohio State into what was one of the worst in
Speaker 1: the Big Ten to the best in the Big Ten
Speaker 1: in his final few years in Columbus. He's gone on
Speaker 1: now we know. Uh. He said some of the reasons
Speaker 1: why he thought he got that the big free agent
Speaker 1: contract here to come from Carolina when he did, and uh,
Speaker 1: he wants him a piece of the Jaguars organization. There
Speaker 1: was a report earlier in the week that the Jaguars
Speaker 1: had asked him to take a pay cut and then
Speaker 1: maybe they could deal him. But here and Herbert Meyer
Speaker 1: talk about it, logs, it feels like much more Well
Speaker 1: is gonna be around here, and especially the core of
Speaker 1: the interior, that offensive line, the middle three guys that
Speaker 1: he was really speaking highly of the interior guys that
Speaker 1: really formed the core. When I saw the report that
Speaker 1: they were gonna maybe ask him to take a pay
Speaker 1: cut or that he could be released, I was going,
Speaker 1: wait a minute. He he is, He's tough, he's physical,
Speaker 1: he's dependable. The majority of the of the cap pit
Speaker 1: has passed in his contract. He's not an expensive guy
Speaker 1: at this point. Uh, would you like him to be
Speaker 1: able to take a pay You liked everybody to take
Speaker 1: a pay cut to minimize their their effect on the cap.
Speaker 1: But the reality is is that Andrew Norwell's is a
Speaker 1: good football player, is a really good football player, and
Speaker 1: he's much like Cam Robinson and that he's been available,
Speaker 1: he's been tough, and Uh, in the last two years
Speaker 1: he played exceptionally well. Now, a few years ago, in
Speaker 1: the first year of his free agent contract, did he
Speaker 1: perform at the level that you expected him to perform at. No,
Speaker 1: he did not. But the last two years there's absolutely
Speaker 1: nothing to complain about when it comes to the production
Speaker 1: or to use Trent Baalky's termed the value of his play.
Speaker 1: So all five could be back on the offensive line.
Speaker 1: I said this before. I'm a big fan of not
Speaker 1: taking a jar off the shelf until you find a
Speaker 1: jar this better. So you bring all of the ones
Speaker 1: that you got back and then you don't take them
Speaker 1: out of your roster until you find somebody better. That's
Speaker 1: the only way you get better. You don't get better
Speaker 1: by just cutting a guy and saying, well, we'll get
Speaker 1: somebody better, or thinking you may get somebody better. It's
Speaker 1: always better to have it proven that somebody's better, and
Speaker 1: then you make the subtraction. And on Wednesday on the
Speaker 1: Huddle Up Podcast, Bucky Brooks joins us each week each
Speaker 1: week their logs, and he made the point, you know,
Speaker 1: especially the interior of the line at center, Lenda and
Speaker 1: those guys, especially Lender with a rookie quarterback, let the
Speaker 1: line take care of the calls and the checks. Let
Speaker 1: Linda do that and let the quarterback just be the
Speaker 1: quarterback at least early until he's more comfortable to do that.
Speaker 1: So having continuity up front in that checks that was
Speaker 1: that was the point he was making, and he's right,
Speaker 1: and he's right. But here's the other thing that you'd
Speaker 1: like to have happen. It's for Lenda to stay healthy. Well,
Speaker 1: that would be a positive for all the games as
Speaker 1: your rookie quarterback play. It's been tough for him to
Speaker 1: do that because it's, uh, it hasn't happened very often,
Speaker 1: and so, uh, you know, there's there's gonna be also
Speaker 1: a very important decision of Lender's back, which you expect
Speaker 1: Brandon Lendard to be back. In the last couple of years,
Speaker 1: you've had a really really strong backup that you felt
Speaker 1: really good about. And Tyler Shatley, who, by the way,
Speaker 1: he's going to be a free agent. What do you
Speaker 1: do at that position? Do you know, can you can
Speaker 1: can you bring him back to do you bring him back?
Speaker 1: Do you look to the future, do you find somebody
Speaker 1: in the draft? Do you continue to to work with
Speaker 1: a j Can as a backup center and to continue
Speaker 1: to develop his ability to move in and play center. So,
Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of things to think about it,
Speaker 1: and look, you never like to make decisions based on well,
Speaker 1: you know, we've got a guy and we really like him,
Speaker 1: but you know he's got a history of not being available,
Speaker 1: so we really got to get a good backup. That's
Speaker 1: not where you want to be, but I mean that's
Speaker 1: kind of the reality of where you are with Lender
Speaker 1: and that you have to be ready for his lack
Speaker 1: of availability when he's out there. Though he's he's a good,
Speaker 1: really good player, he's not. He hasn't. He's been a
Speaker 1: borderline Pro Bowl caliber caliber center, okay, and uh to
Speaker 1: be though at that level, the consistency has to be there.
Speaker 1: The availability has to be there, and that's not what
Speaker 1: has been for for Brandon Linder. And love him though,
Speaker 1: I mean, when he's been playing, he's been really good,
Speaker 1: but you've got to be out there consistently. Let's come
Speaker 1: back in a moment. We'll hear from the Jaguars head
Speaker 1: coach Irvian Meyer. He and a lot of other of
Speaker 1: people want pure blazing speed on offense. We'll get his
Speaker 1: thoughts on the wide receiver position, and a little later

Speaker 1: you know, I think we have some really good receivers.
Speaker 1: We're not done with that room. However, just thinking if
Speaker 1: you've covered our teams over the years, I just the
Speaker 1: need for speed, the big play opportunity was not with
Speaker 1: the Jaguars last year, and we're gonna we're searching for
Speaker 1: the big play kit at the receiver position. It's that
Speaker 1: coch urban Meyer on Tuesday as media video conference and
Speaker 1: welcome back, it's Jaguar's Happy Hour. J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lockerman, Well,
Speaker 1: he was going through he was asked on Tuesday, you know,
Speaker 1: you've had time to evaluate the team. What do you have,
Speaker 1: what do you need? And he started with, of course
Speaker 1: you want to get the quarterback room, right, that's number one.
Speaker 1: Then it's defensive line. Start there on defense, then go
Speaker 1: to secondary. There's a lot of work to do. It
Speaker 1: sounds like in the secondary here at least from his perspective.
Speaker 1: And then playmakers at wide receivers, speed and a big
Speaker 1: playability down the field. That goes hand in hand though
Speaker 1: the quarterback position to it all kind of works together.
Speaker 1: But those are at least the first four things. Let's
Speaker 1: start at quarterback, and obviously everybody's talking about the kid
Speaker 1: from Clemson. Um. But you know, the other question is
Speaker 1: what will that room look like. That's the thing he said,
Speaker 1: we want to get the quarterback room how we want it.
Speaker 1: Not just one guy this is this is a multiple
Speaker 1: different players that will be in that room together. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be interesting to see, you know
Speaker 1: what that room does look like. You know, do you
Speaker 1: retain the guys that you currently have? Do you look
Speaker 1: at bringing in a veteran who can quote unquote mentor
Speaker 1: a young Trevor Lawrence in that room. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know what the answer is. If if you
Speaker 1: feel like that you have a great quarterback coach, which
Speaker 1: you do, you've got somebody who's very well respected in
Speaker 1: league circles, then you can get away with having that
Speaker 1: that veteran presence in the room. But you know, I
Speaker 1: will say this, sometimes it's even it's it's even better
Speaker 1: that even if you have a great coach, to add
Speaker 1: that veteran mentor, because sometimes it means more coming from
Speaker 1: a teammate than it does from a coach. It's just
Speaker 1: it's no different than growing up as a kid and
Speaker 1: your mom and dad used to tell you don't touch
Speaker 1: that son, don't tell just don't touch that, and you
Speaker 1: sit there and you go, yeah, mom and dad, you know,
Speaker 1: just being parents, and then your buddy would tell you, hey, man,
Speaker 1: don't touch that, you know, and you'd be like, he's
Speaker 1: probably right, what do you what were you trying to touch? Blogs?
Speaker 1: Just okay, you never don't know if there's a lot
Speaker 1: of things, right, Okay, you don't touch you don't. You
Speaker 1: don't do that in the world we're talking about here, dude,
Speaker 1: don't touch it though, whatever it is, your hands off,
Speaker 1: don't go there please. Anyways, same idea, I know what
Speaker 1: you're talking about. That makes sense. It makes a lot
Speaker 1: of sense. You need to that's one idea, or you know,
Speaker 1: the status quo, right, I mean, Luton was here, Gardner
Speaker 1: was here, he has some starting time. Do they fit
Speaker 1: into the mold of what they want? I think I
Speaker 1: think it's I think it's gonna be wildly interesting to
Speaker 1: see if they feel like Gardener Mincio is a fit
Speaker 1: for that room. And I mean, let's talk about the
Speaker 1: elephant in the room. You know, he's a guy that
Speaker 1: felt like he should have been the starter last year,
Speaker 1: made it known that that he was disappointed. Then when
Speaker 1: he wasn't and uh uh at times last year didn't
Speaker 1: want to throw the football in pregame warm ups if
Speaker 1: he wasn't gonna be the guy. Uh for me. Uh,
Speaker 1: that doesn't make for somebody that's gonna make a room
Speaker 1: very strong for me. So so I don't know. I
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be interesting to see where that
Speaker 1: ends up. But uh, because you want to mean not
Speaker 1: just a quarterback room. You want to make every room
Speaker 1: that you have as strong as possible because the stronger
Speaker 1: the room is, the better the performance of the room is.
Speaker 1: And I don't care if there's only one guy playing
Speaker 1: out of that room, like the quarterback position. If it's
Speaker 1: a stronger room, you're gonna get a better performance out
Speaker 1: of the individual that's playing if it's a strong room.
Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna be interesting to see where
Speaker 1: they end up with a lot of rooms. I mean,
Speaker 1: the other one that that I look at JP is
Speaker 1: running back room and and reading Trent Balky's press conference
Speaker 1: and and reading what he said, I think he's dead
Speaker 1: on the money. Look, look he said, I we appreciate
Speaker 1: what James Robinson did and he's a great workhorse back.
Speaker 1: He was consistent, he was great, especially where he came
Speaker 1: from being an undrafted guy. But then he added, we
Speaker 1: need to add some explosiveness to that room. Damn race,
Speaker 1: you do, you know? And so when Urbans talking about
Speaker 1: the need for speed, I don't think he's just talking
Speaker 1: about just a wide receiver position. You get. What you
Speaker 1: want is whoever touches the ball that you hold your
Speaker 1: breath and that they could legitimately score any time that
Speaker 1: they touched the ball. That's not just limited to being
Speaker 1: somebody who wears an eighties number or a teen's number.
Speaker 1: That person can wear a forties number. That person can
Speaker 1: wear a twenties number, a thirties number. Could be a
Speaker 1: running back, it could be a tight end. It could
Speaker 1: be uh a hybrid type guy that plays special teams
Speaker 1: defense and then every game down again he plays on offense.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many different ways that you can
Speaker 1: be explosive or to gain that that quote need for speed.
Speaker 1: So I mean, you gotta you gotta get playmakers anywhere
Speaker 1: you can get them. It's not just the wide receiver
Speaker 1: position for the quarterback. It can be any position. You know,
Speaker 1: just touching on the receiver position a little bit though
Speaker 1: a little bit deeper here. You know it's gonna be
Speaker 1: chart right, He's going into a contract year, Chant and
Speaker 1: charts got to improve. We did not have a good
Speaker 1: year last year. He was beat up, um. Body language
Speaker 1: wasn't great, the quarterback play wasn't great, and obviously that
Speaker 1: impacted it a lot. And uh, you hope culture change
Speaker 1: strong culture urban Meyer. Given the players the best of
Speaker 1: the best, expecting the best of the best makes it
Speaker 1: better for DJ because he needs be better. And then
Speaker 1: you got Colin Johnson, young guy was his rookie year
Speaker 1: last season, and we'll see what he can do. Ways
Speaker 1: to go, but I mean JP looks did some impressive
Speaker 1: things last year, and he's got the range he's got.
Speaker 1: I think he does a really good job of gaining
Speaker 1: separation for a quarterback. I think, you know, he got
Speaker 1: a big wide receiver. It can be of quarterbacks best friend.
Speaker 1: And with the amount of separation that Colin Johnson gets,
Speaker 1: it's been impressive. So uh, I mean, so there there
Speaker 1: there's some guys that are gonna, I think, going to
Speaker 1: get better and give a young quarterback some some opportunities.
Speaker 1: The other guys that contributed a lot at wide receiver
Speaker 1: last year, Keeling Cole and Chris Conley are both pending
Speaker 1: free agents, and he got well, they're pending free agents.
Speaker 1: Keelan Cole you'd like to be able to bring back,
Speaker 1: and he's made it known that he would like to
Speaker 1: be back. And then you have Laviska Chennault, who is
Speaker 1: tough as nails, bit was beat up a little bit
Speaker 1: last year, played through it. Give him credit for that,
Speaker 1: but he's got to find a way to get healthy
Speaker 1: because if he can get healthy, then he can get better.
Speaker 1: If you if you can't get healthy, it's hard to
Speaker 1: get better. I look, I've proven that when when you're
Speaker 1: beat up, you're just trying. You're trying to tread water
Speaker 1: to keep your head afloat. When you're beat up, you
Speaker 1: don't get better when you're beat up, and when you're hurt.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, just it's it's physically impossible. And so for
Speaker 1: guys like Leavisca Chenal dj Chark, they gotta get healthy
Speaker 1: so that they can get better and so that they
Speaker 1: can get better for this offense and for this football team.
Speaker 1: For a young quarterback, curious to see what type of
Speaker 1: additions they have at wide receiver, whether they go with
Speaker 1: a veteran guy and free agency that will cost him
Speaker 1: a little bit of money. Though a guy like Samuel,
Speaker 1: who Urban knows well from the Ohio State days, he'll
Speaker 1: be twenty five and the season starts, by the way,
Speaker 1: coming out in free agency. I don't think Wattle will
Speaker 1: be there in the draft at he'll go earlier than that.
Speaker 1: Tondaris Tony has been mocked there a few different places.
Speaker 1: So what type of guy do you want? What type
Speaker 1: of receiver do you really somebody that has that ability
Speaker 1: to that would for me at least, you know, go
Speaker 1: in motion, line up in the backfield. That type of
Speaker 1: thing dolls all that does. But the one thing that
Speaker 1: Lavisca doesn't do is just flat out run by people. Right,
Speaker 1: He runs over people. He runs over people. He ran
Speaker 1: by on the one deep ball that he had to think.
Speaker 1: It's something that he does. Consist he can open it
Speaker 1: up straight line, I think, and run. But but it's
Speaker 1: not something that he does. Look, he's it doesn't look
Speaker 1: like he's Jimmy Smith. Which when Jimmy Smith went his
Speaker 1: in his heyday, and I think when Urban was talking
Speaker 1: about the need for speed, he said, look, we're not
Speaker 1: just looking for guys that are four three guys. The
Speaker 1: first person that came to my mind was Jimmy Smith.
Speaker 1: I mean Jimmy Smith when he was on the clock.
Speaker 1: You know, stop Watch, Jimmy wasn't running a four three,
Speaker 1: But when you turned on the film, Jimmy ran by
Speaker 1: all the defensive backs. How does he do that? He
Speaker 1: just he had this this extra gear that and I
Speaker 1: don't know if it was just because he put on
Speaker 1: this football gear all of a sudden, it gave him
Speaker 1: the energy, or it gave him the extra speed, or
Speaker 1: with the extra weight, he was able to not lose
Speaker 1: any speed and everybody else lost a little bit. All
Speaker 1: I know is that Jimmy on the clock was never
Speaker 1: the fastest guy on the field, but when he was
Speaker 1: on the field, he seemed like he was the fastest
Speaker 1: guy all the time. And when the ball was in
Speaker 1: the air, JP he was the fastest guy every time.
Speaker 1: And so if if you can find guys like that,
Speaker 1: you know, absolutely for a young quarterback that that can
Speaker 1: see and stand in the pocket and throw it along ways, man,
Speaker 1: if you can get a guy that can run away
Speaker 1: from people, take him every time. Welcome to a new

Speaker 1: On their offensive line. They've released their starting tackles Eric Fisher,
Speaker 1: Mitchell Shworts, and their center Austin Rider is going to
Speaker 1: go to free agency, So three fifths of the starting
Speaker 1: offensive line for the Chiefs will be different next year.
Speaker 1: I think they could bring back some of these guys
Speaker 1: that may be a reduced amount of pay. I think
Speaker 1: that may be part of it. Fisher, I thought, I
Speaker 1: thought Eric Fisher they gave him much, much, much, too
Speaker 1: big of a contract, and I thought the value wasn't
Speaker 1: there for the contract they gave him. Uh. Shorts, the
Speaker 1: right tackle has been her lot when he is healthy.
Speaker 1: Good football player, I mean really good football player. So
Speaker 1: somebody if if he gets back to being healthy, because
Speaker 1: that's a guy that has played nick before and he's tough,
Speaker 1: and he had a consecutive game streaks played that was
Speaker 1: a long amount of time before he ended up getting
Speaker 1: hurt this year, and he will provide great value for
Speaker 1: somebody at the right tackle spot. The look changes, UH,
Speaker 1: is always happening in the Ken said Chiefs. I'm sure
Speaker 1: we'll find some solutions to some of their change. The
Speaker 1: Saints have plenty of change as well. They were so
Speaker 1: far over the cat they're having to clear out guys
Speaker 1: to make the cap numbers. And ours Jenkins a cornerback
Speaker 1: at whack today, Kwan Alexander linebacker, wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders,
Speaker 1: a little bit of a little bit ago a couple
Speaker 1: of days ago, uh, And then they've moved salary money
Speaker 1: into bonus money for a bunch of different guys, and
Speaker 1: they're really kind of up against it here. So there's
Speaker 1: some names coming out of New Orleans that will be
Speaker 1: out and available in the market. Well, they got a reboot,
Speaker 1: I mean that essentially they don't have a choice with
Speaker 1: their salary cap situation. But you know, the crazy thing
Speaker 1: is the question is still out there who's gonna play quarterbacks?
Speaker 1: And Breeze has not announced anything. There was a report
Speaker 1: that there was an announcement pending, but that was a
Speaker 1: while ago. And I just get the feeling that that
Speaker 1: Drew Brees is not done. And I look, uh, it
Speaker 1: sure looked like he was done the way he walked
Speaker 1: off to the super Dome. Look when you when you
Speaker 1: walk off the field and you and he lost, I
Speaker 1: mean when who looks good with that? I mean he
Speaker 1: and he didn't play particularly well down the stretch at times.
Speaker 1: But will it be then for for Drew Brees or
Speaker 1: does Drew Bee breeze? Watch what Tom Brady did and go, man,
Speaker 1: you can still do that? You know, I'm I'm not
Speaker 1: as old as him. Why should I stop now? Right?
Speaker 1: And and hopefully Drew Brees has saved his money got
Speaker 1: some of that money back from all those diamonds that
Speaker 1: he bought four years ago. That was one of the
Speaker 1: one of the most bizarre stories maybe aver that a
Speaker 1: that an NFL quarterback is going to invest in diamonds
Speaker 1: and trust somebody on their word and yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: buy all these diamonds. I'm gonna make a lot of money.
Speaker 1: And then you find out that the diamonds that you
Speaker 1: paid for you were paying full freight. What are you doing.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We've all made mistakes. I don't know, yeah, JP,
Speaker 1: but I mean that was Yeah, it was a weird one.
Speaker 1: I'll say that. How many millions of mistake was that? Anyway?
Speaker 1: So a strange thing. But it'll be interesting to see
Speaker 1: what happens with Drew Brees in New Orleans and and
Speaker 1: what happens with the Saints if Drew Brees does not play.
Speaker 1: What are they gonna do at quarterbacks? A great question. Um,
Speaker 1: let's go speak in a quarterback. North Dakota State quarterback
Speaker 1: Trey Lance will not run the forty his pro daylogs.
Speaker 1: He said, look at the GPS the National title game
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. He ran for forty four
Speaker 1: yard touchdown in that game and GPS that he had
Speaker 1: on clocked him at twenty one and a half miles
Speaker 1: an hour. That would have ranked twelve in the NFL
Speaker 1: last season among ball carriers and tops among quarterbacks. So
Speaker 1: you talk about game speed, talking about Jimmy Smith game speed,
Speaker 1: you can actually see that statistically now on GPS, which
Speaker 1: I think it's amazing. I mean, you've got a quarterbacks
Speaker 1: you can run twenty one miles an hour and maybe it.
Speaker 1: That's a that's insane. I would love to know what
Speaker 1: some of the other quarterbacks in the National Football League,
Speaker 1: namely the one in Baltimore, how fast he has run
Speaker 1: before because he is electric right, according to this, it
Speaker 1: would have been most among quarterbacks, so it wouldn't have
Speaker 1: been this fast. But I still want a quarterback that
Speaker 1: can throw the ball instead of run fast. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: because the job description of the quarterback is to get
Speaker 1: the ball into the hands of multiple guys that run fast,
Speaker 1: and that those guys can also take the pain and
Speaker 1: an abuse a lot better than one person that plays quarterback.
Speaker 1: Speaking of that, guys who can get the ball in
Speaker 1: hands of other playmakers and guys that are making a
Speaker 1: lot of money doing that. Dak Prescott four years, hundred
Speaker 1: sixty million dollar deal Jerry Jones paid less for the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys franchise. In he paid a hundred and forty
Speaker 1: million dollars to buy the Cowboys and the franchise is
Speaker 1: now worth five and a half billion with a B
Speaker 1: dollars by the way, and he said in the Prescott fence,
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones said, if anyone has ever taken advantage of
Speaker 1: me financially, I'm proud it's the one next to me,
Speaker 1: and he pointed to Prescott right there. He's gonna get
Speaker 1: seventy five million paid out in the first year. Literally,
Speaker 1: the contract dwarfs any other quarter, any other contract in
Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. Patrick Mahomes is vastly underpaid.
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is grossly underpaid. Everybody else Now when you
Speaker 1: look at the Dak Prescott contract is under paid or
Speaker 1: do you say that Dak Prescott is overpaid because Dak
Speaker 1: Prescott held all the cards in the negotiations with the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, and the Dallas Cowboys have nobody to blame
Speaker 1: but themselves because they continued to use the franchise tag
Speaker 1: instead of striking the deal early on, which they could
Speaker 1: have done at a much cheaper rate. And so that's
Speaker 1: that's the part. You know that as a as a franchise,
Speaker 1: you you want players to prove their worth, but at
Speaker 1: the same token, you'd like to kind of be ahead
Speaker 1: of the game a little bit and pay them before
Speaker 1: they prove their worth, because then you get value when
Speaker 1: they prove their worth and you have to pay them
Speaker 1: and then multiple times franchise them. Guess what the player
Speaker 1: is getting paid more than their value, as in the
Speaker 1: case with Dak Prescott. What is the way to live
Speaker 1: up to that contract? Super Bowls? Yeah, I mean for
Speaker 1: that kind of money, you've got to win super Bowls,
Speaker 1: and if you don't win super Bowls, he will be
Speaker 1: judged off of that. It's no different than when Andrew
Speaker 1: Norwell came in here and did not play well his
Speaker 1: first year, monster contract, highest paid guard in the league,
Speaker 1: didn't play like the best guard in the league. Okay,
Speaker 1: then he got judged and many people viewed him as
Speaker 1: a disappointment. People still do. Some people still do because
Speaker 1: they never got over that year. The reality is that
Speaker 1: he's played to the level of the recent contract Dak Prescott.
Speaker 1: Though at that level you gotta win super Bowls. That's
Speaker 1: been tough for the Cowboys to find the postseason, and
Speaker 1: much less winning the postseason. If you compare Dak Prescott's
Speaker 1: contract in every way, shape or formed, from the payout
Speaker 1: in the first year to the payout in the first
Speaker 1: two years, the guaranteed money, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera,
Speaker 1: it is by far the richest contract that there is
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And you're talking about a
Speaker 1: quarterback who hasn't won a Super Bowl yet. Who oh,
Speaker 1: by the way, last year had a major injury, right right,
Speaker 1: So is that value? We'll find out. I guess what
Speaker 1: that value is. And it's one of those things, you know, what,
Speaker 1: what should you have done? Should you have just let
Speaker 1: him walk? Well they didn't. They didn't. Did it? Now
Speaker 1: if he walks, Now he's carrying a bag over his shoulder,
Speaker 1: and he's got to have a will barrel helpth Cary.
Speaker 1: There's a brinkstruck. Pull it up to his house. I
Speaker 1: a lot of money cornerback here. All right. That's done it.
