1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: We got.

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: So how do you feel all about the draft class.

3
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: As a whole?

4
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 3: Oh, you know, jack to be at the finish line,

5
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 3: so to speak, but you know, the work doesn't stop, obviously,

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 3: Like I just articulated with our UDFA process coming to

7
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 3: a close, where at eighty eight on the roster, obviously

8
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 3: got a couple of spots open that we'll look to

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 3: fill here in the near future, but certainly appreciate such

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 3: a collaborative effort from so many different people, so many

11
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,959
Speaker 3: different departments to bring this all the life, to make

12
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 3: it so that we felt like we were making the

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 3: best decisions for the organization moving forward and really looking

14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 3: forward to what comes next and seeing the group of

15
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 3: rookies get out on the grass with their teammates and

16
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 3: began making an impact here in Jacksonville.

17
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: As one was, one of the guys who wanted to

18
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: be a priority came in during the interview process. I

19
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 2: mentioned him the listen, how many of those guys that

20
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: you maybe mentioned as priority Day three guys during the

21
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 2: interview process that you end up landing.

22
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 3: It's a good question. I don't know, memory serves me correct.

23
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 3: Maybe two, but none of that.

24
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:10,199
Speaker 4: Maybe three.

25
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, So with that I mean, those are things that

26
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 3: you're projecting and aren't always accurate.

27
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 4: That's pre combine, which.

28
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 3: Typically testing is going to play a major part and

29
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 3: where a player ends up getting selected. So I must

30
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 3: say once Tuton ran that forty, I don't know that

31
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 3: I would have guessed that he'd be available on day three,

32
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 3: but nonetheless he found himself there taking off pretty quickly

33
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 3: at one o four, and so we were jacked to

34
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 3: be able to be in that position to prioritize him

35
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 3: because you know, at the end of the day, we

36
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 3: want to level up the competition across the entirety of

37
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 3: the roster and running backs the spot that we're going

38
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 3: to lean on, and you know, as Liam can probably

39
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 3: allude to, it's so rarely just a one person spot, right.

40
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 3: It's going to take a collective effort, just like the

41
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 3: draft did, and we look forward to the group as

42
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 3: a whole in addition to quin, you know, come into

43
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 3: making this thing as rounded as it possibly can be.

44
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 4: That's a good questions Kaiser. We got Jack Kaiser there

45
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 4: in Mannheim Center.

46
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 5: J H.

47
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 6: Most NFL teams, UH AT GMS would probably say that

48
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 6: as much as you'd like to, you can't get to everything.

49
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: I know where you're going.

50
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 6: Why why why was that area not able to uh

51
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 6: be addressed?

52
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 5: And will it be in the when you announce whoever

53
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 5: you're un drafted free agent?

54
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think, UH, short answer to that is

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 3: the board always fallows certain ways, and UH you're not

56
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 3: gonna reach because of what might be a pros uh

57
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 3: perceived need.

58
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 4: Uh.

59
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 3: So you're always gonna take the players that you feel like,

60
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 3: uh are gonna put the the team in the best

61
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 3: interest uh moving forward, and UH you don't want ever

62
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 3: sort of lean heavily into just one idea of best

63
00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: best player available and need. It's some version of balance,

64
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 3: it's dynamic that comes with that. So I I do

65
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 3: think you'll see us make some moves here in the

66
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 3: near future that will in fact address that. Obviously, our

67
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: our undrafted college free agents haven't been announced, but those

68
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 3: those positions were certainly close to filled there, and we'll look.

69
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 4: Towards the propree agent landscape as well.

70
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 5: As One quick follow up, and I know you said

71
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 5: you have announced that the Benefits announced on Twitter that

72
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 5: you were exciting quarterback. Can you at least talk about

73
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 5: him because.

74
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: Lay, yeah, we've agreed to terms and Liam can probably

75
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 3: speak to it a little bit more than I can. Uh,

76
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: he poured into that stuff rather recently, and obviously yea,

77
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: with us making that move, it's certainly somebody that we

78
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 3: would like to develop.

79
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, coaches kid, right, he's got a ton of production,

80
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 7: does have, you know, a natural stroke and seems like

81
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 7: he's a great kid. He's just trying to get better

82
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 7: and better. So I felt like it was a good

83
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 7: ad for us at the time.

84
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 5: Name I think it the h you're opening Prescott, you said,

85
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 5: how do we make this offense in travel rollance, a

86
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 5: dynamic and.

87
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: As explosive as possible?

88
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I taking in free agency and out through

89
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 5: the draft, do you feel you've got there or gotten

90
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 5: there or in how much further do you think maybe

91
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 5: you need to go?

92
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: Yeah?

93
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 7: I mean I think we've definitely addressed the ability to

94
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 7: strike from a distance, you know. I think that that's

95
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 7: something that uh, you know, we just we struggled to

96
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 7: do a little bit last year in Tampa where you

97
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 7: ended up having to go ten twelve play drives a

98
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 7: lot and it was efficient, right, But ultimately you're looking

99
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 7: to be as ex as explosive as you can and

100
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 7: both the run and the pass, and I think that

101
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 7: was definitely addressed in both pro free agency and in

102
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 7: the college or AFT landscape. So don't think we have

103
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 7: to to add any more at this point.

104
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 8: James, I, it seemed like a lot of these players

105
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 8: are actually all of 'em except for Tracks went to

106
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 8: the Senior Bowl. Just how much did that play a

107
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 8: role wide? Why did it seem like that sort of

108
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 8: acored in was just coincidence? And uh, could you talk

109
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 8: about the experience all these guys.

110
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know that added exposure from the All Star circus.

111
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 4: It's certainly something we leverage.

112
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 3: I mean getting to see him throughout the week of

113
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 3: practices and then in the game setting. So many of

114
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 3: the guys that you know are willing to do more

115
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 3: than what the norm might be, right, many are tapping

116
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 3: out before they ever get to the game. And to

117
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: see somebody like Jack Kaiser, you know, opt into playing

118
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 3: a position like safety when he has in fact an

119
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: inside linebacker, when that could make him look worse than

120
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 3: he would like, but was productive in that setting. I

121
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 3: think back to you know, Brayden Fisk. One of the

122
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 3: things that really resonated for us was when during the

123
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 3: game the Senior Bowl. He said, you know what, I'm

124
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 3: gonna go ahead and play defense on both sides, right,

125
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 3: I'm gonna fill the gap because there have been too

126
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 3: many opt outs. These are guys that love the game.

127
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 4: Of football, regardless.

128
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 3: Of if it might put them in a compromising position

129
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 3: in the eyes of evaluators and decision makers by playing

130
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 3: too many snaps or playing out a position.

131
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 4: Et cetera. These guys love ball and that's what we're

132
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 4: hunting up.

133
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 8: And so you like, a lot of these guys have

134
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 8: a lot of experience. Obviously they've played a lot of

135
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 8: snaps And was that something you guys wanted? Did did

136
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 8: you need then to have play a good football?

137
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 4: I think it's something we lean into. I don't know that.

138
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 3: It's exactly what we're prioritizing, but the fact that you

139
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: can look back to some of the recent drafts that

140
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 3: I've been a part of, and that's typically been the

141
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 3: case because those guys walk in the door and they're

142
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 3: fairly close to ready, right, I think, uh, because of

143
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 3: the nuances that come with this game. Uh, you know,

144
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 3: reps are something that are important, and uh, obviously with

145
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 3: the guys that have done it for a little bit longer,

146
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 3: uh of a runway.

147
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 4: It it it caters to that right, building.

148
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 2: Off the senior goal point, I don't think you were

149
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 2: a senior Bowl Lee, I don't think you were hired

150
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,679
Speaker 2: like the week that had started.

151
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: So as far as leaning on.

152
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 2: That as a tool, as well as working with scouts

153
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: that neither of you have worked with until four months ago,

154
00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: described that process.

155
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so much of it is rooted in

156
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 4: the film.

157
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 3: At the same time, there's boots on the ground so

158
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 3: to speak, who do in fact interact with the players,

159
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 3: interact with the coaches who are there, and sources who

160
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 3: were there. So that is a well from a background

161
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 3: and character and touch point with the player. But the

162
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 3: film is really where I'm talking about that evaluation being

163
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 3: meaningful for us. And it's certainly something because it's best

164
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 3: against best, right, some of the top prospects against the

165
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: other top prospects. It's certainly you know has a place

166
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 3: and it's one that we prioritize.

167
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 4: That's for sure.

168
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 2: More for me, Jalen A Cloud, there were a lot

169
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 2: of drushers still on the board at the point that

170
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: you've stayed and w I received the one that you.

171
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 5: Guys were hunting.

172
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 3: I think the you guys can probably see this across

173
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 3: a lot of the players that we selected, in particular

174
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 3: on the defensive side of the ball. But the versatility, right,

175
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 3: that's something that really stands out for us. And obviously

176
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 3: you know we speak about being intangibly rich. Right, His competitiveness,

177
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 3: his play, demeanor, his urgency is phenomenal. And you take

178
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 3: him another who was deployed across the defensive front at

179
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 3: Auburn stood up off the ball.

180
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 4: When he went to the Senior Bowl.

181
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 3: All he did was stand up off the ball when

182
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 3: one of the best elements of who he is is

183
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 3: being moved from one spot to the next and providing

184
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 3: a spark, being able to gain an edge, a change

185
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 3: of pace, rushing off the edge. That was one thing

186
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 3: that you know he signed up to do at the

187
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 3: Senior Bowl and wasn't batting and eye at the fact that, hey,

188
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 3: I don't get to showcase what so many would call

189
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 3: my superpower. But I'm going to do this anyway because

190
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 3: I love this sport and I love getting out on

191
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,719
Speaker 3: the grass. Another thing here is, when you think about it, right,

192
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 3: one of the things I really value.

193
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 4: I know Liam does the same, but when a guy goes.

194
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 3: From a small school to a big school and you

195
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 3: see production continue to pop. That is a meaningful element

196
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 3: and that's something you can think back to guys that

197
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: I've been a part of drafting in the past, right adverse,

198
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 3: Braden Fisk, Kobe Turner.

199
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 4: Think about the guys today who have gone from a

200
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 4: small school to a.

201
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 3: Big school that we just walked away with who were

202
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 3: productive across both.

203
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 1: You back here. Sorry this is either for bolth of

204
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: you or one of you, but you guys.

205
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 7: Really built this identity of building a roster of intangibly rich,

206
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 7: mentally and physically tough players.

207
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 5: Do you guys feel like you did that with this

208
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 5: rookie draft.

209
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: Boss Junior?

210
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 7: Absolutely, Yeah. That was very clear with every pick that

211
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 7: that was the priority. I mean, you look across the

212
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 7: board at these guys and you talk to the people

213
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 7: that were in touch with them, whether it be the coaches,

214
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 7: the personnel, their college coaches, their high school coaches. Tough

215
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 7: resonates with all these guys and guys that love football,

216
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 7: that love the process that drives the results. And you

217
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 7: know so many captains out of this group and leaders

218
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 7: and guys that have played a lot of snaps, so

219
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 7: so much of that was you know.

220
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 3: Part of this whole process and the way that people

221
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 3: talk about each of these players, it is inspiring. I mean,

222
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 3: it's something that has really caught our attention along the way.

223
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 3: And you know, it definitely jumps out when you got

224
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 3: people willing to stand on the table for them, who

225
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 3: have for all intensive purposes lived with them. And then

226
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 3: also people who in our own building are standing on

227
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 3: the table for them. And you know, there were a

228
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 3: couple of.

229
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 4: Players today that.

230
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 3: You know, a scout or an executive made the phone

231
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 3: call because they were someone who was truly meaningful to them.

232
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 3: They were, you know, convicted on their thoughts around their players,

233
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 3: and we wanted to make sure that they had the

234
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 3: opportunity to be the first to welcome them to Jacksonville.

235
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 3: And I think those are some special moments and ones

236
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 3: that we'll hang on to. But again, I think it

237
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 3: points back to this being a collective effort and nothing

238
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,839
Speaker 3: short of that, and very appreciative of our coaching staff,

239
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 3: our scouting staff, and all the other departments from content

240
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 3: team to you know, our sports performance group, our operation

241
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 3: staff who are currently working to get things aligned for.

242
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 4: Their arrival and travel.

243
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 3: Uh, this was a very fulfilling three day window and

244
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 3: look forward to taking the next steps to uh bring

245
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 3: it all the life are you.

246
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: Able to share? But one of those players may have been.

247
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 6: Anecdotally uh on what front that the coach or an

248
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 6: executive or stout was.

249
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 3: Able to Oh, well, we ended up with a usc trojan. Yeah,

250
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 3: so you can probably guess who made that phone call

251
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 3: and then, uh, it's kind of cool. Uh so Josh Scoby,

252
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 3: who's u a former player in the NFL. Uh, he

253
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 3: had a lot of heat for Lane at a Navy

254
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 3: and uh, you know, he made it known early in

255
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: the process that he was someone he would like to

256
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: see become a Jaguar.

257
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 4: Now if you haven't already done.

258
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 3: So, Uh, I would advise anybody to take the time

259
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 3: to watch his special team snaps because they.

260
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 4: Are mighty enjoyable.

261
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 3: But uh, he was able to make that phone call

262
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 3: to him and uh and get that conversation started, Sean, Yeah,

263
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: I g I.

264
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: Got one for James or for James, one for the

265
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: James just.

266
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 7: With how things played out, the construction of the room

267
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 7: out dated leap and what are you guys expecting.

268
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 4: From Mason Smith this year?

269
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 9: Yeah?

270
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 4: I think that whole group is about to take a jump. Uh.

271
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 3: You know, they're working their their tails off right now,

272
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 3: and you can tell that there's a connective element that's

273
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 3: coming to life in a short period of time. Uh,

274
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 3: So we certainly look look forward to seeing that. I

275
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 3: think guys be in different positions than they've been in

276
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 3: the past, and that being an element that activates uh,

277
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 3: you know, different sides of them. And you know, their

278
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 3: whole approach has been great so far, So we're looking forward.

279
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 1: To ITAM just two to Allen. What do you think

280
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: they can bring to the offense. How can they kind

281
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: of maybe a compliment each other.

282
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think if you look at Tooting with the

283
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 7: ability to like strike from a distance, right, you can

284
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 7: you know, get to the second or third level and

285
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 7: and score from anywhere on the field.

286
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: Right.

287
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 7: I think behind the line of scrimmage forced missed tackles

288
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 7: was like through the roof for him, you know, in

289
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 7: terms of getting back at or at least getting yards

290
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 7: after that contact behind the line of scrimmage.

291
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: And then you look at Alan kind.

292
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 7: Of a interesting player, can play a little bit of slot,

293
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 7: move him into the backfield. Obviously he had a thousand

294
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 7: yards over the last two years, and then he can

295
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 7: catch the ball out of the backfield. Good in the

296
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 7: screen game competitor man. This guy loves to play, loves

297
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 7: to compete. Made some critical plays and some critical moments

298
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 7: for Syracuse this past year on a team that was

299
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 7: really good. Again, so excited about both those guys. I

300
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 7: think both from New Jersey as well.

301
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 4: Right, Oh is that right?

302
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,839
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think some of it, I believe.

303
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 7: So you're an offensive line with it hasn't played multiple

304
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 7: spots or roster.

305
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 4: I would like to think so.

306
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 3: I mean, as long as you're mentally and physically tough,

307
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 3: I think you got a chance.

308
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 7: You talked about obviously worrying about injuries and stuff.

309
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: But when you get guys who have played all with

310
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 2: multiple splices, it's hard to.

311
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: Find sponsor for those guys as it get a little tougher.

312
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 5: Do you know what I mean, Like when you're evaluating

313
00:13:58,920 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 5: each guy.

314
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I don't know if that's the case.

315
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 3: I mean again, I I can point back to, you know,

316
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 3: just the importance of the offensive line and when you

317
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 3: go through attrition that you know you typically do throughout

318
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 3: the course of a season. Uh, it can be debilitating

319
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 3: if it ends up striking it at that spot. And UH,

320
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 3: that's just something that I don't wanna sacrifice or put

321
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 3: ourselves in jeopardy for. And it's gonna be a spot

322
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 3: that will always look to pour more resources into. And

323
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 3: you know, it's a great group, and I look forward

324
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 3: to seeing those guys uh begin to form some version

325
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 3: of cohesiveness because uh, it's often more than any one

326
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 3: individual in particular at that position. And UH, I think

327
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 3: finding the best five that work in tandem is gonna

328
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 3: be a fun thing here over the course of the

329
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 3: off season and into the regular season.

330
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 5: Real quick, if you guys may have in mind on

331
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 5: the take your round shit.

332
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 4: Again, No, I don't think we have.

333
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: We've been focused on the draft here over these three day,

334
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 3: these last three days.

335
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 5: She and the uh change or or free to one

336
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 5: you when you look at this what what happened with

337
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 5: this team last year?

338
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 6: Four win season with a lot of key injuries, with

339
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 6: two offensive players, uh, very good on defense, not enough

340
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 6: takeaways a whole bit.

341
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: When you look at.

342
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 6: Where how this roster as uh not necessarily flip, but

343
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 6: certainly added to the last two us with free agency

344
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 6: and this draft, what are your.

345
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 5: Expectations, uh for this first year.

346
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 9: I mean obviously nobody's c proclaiming you were a Super

347
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 9: Bowl contender just yet, but I've been I I'm curious

348
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 9: just to ware how much better do you feel like

349
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 9: you've got between free agency and this draft.

350
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 7: I I honestly haven't even thought that far, you know,

351
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 7: Like I honestly it's really gotta be a completely one

352
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 7: day at a time approach, like a he Yeah, you're

353
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 7: always feeling like you're you're adding levels of competition in

354
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 7: depth to the to the roster is exactly what we did.

355
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: We do feel like we got, we got better and improved.

356
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 7: We will not have a clue until we do this

357
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 7: thing more than uh a week here, you know, in

358
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 7: terms of being on grass because we haven't even been

359
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 7: able to truly play football yet. So the focus is

360
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 7: so deeply rooted in the culture, the way that they're

361
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 7: going to play, our style of play, teaching those elements,

362
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 7: and now we have to go and get an entire

363
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 7: rookie class onboarded.

364
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a lot of work. So the focus

365
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: is so tight right now that probably haven't even thought

366
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: that far ahead.

367
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 5: James just talk about just upgrade of just the players

368
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 5: that you guys have taken.

369
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: Them in, you know, the nineteen guys.

370
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 6: Or whatever it was that you guys have taken here

371
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 6: in the last two months.

372
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 3: You know, I think bringing in competition is just a

373
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 3: healthy thing for any football team. And you know, I

374
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 3: look forward to this, this group integrating with what we

375
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 3: currently have on site, and you know, I think it's

376
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 3: going to be a beautiful process here over the offseason

377
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 3: window and look forward to finally getting the pads on

378
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 3: when we get the chance to do so, because you know,

379
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 3: there's nothing.

380
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 4: Better than tackle football.

381
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 3: And obviously, like Liam just a little to, we have

382
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 3: yet to see this group do that as a whole,

383
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 3: and really that'll show us a lot about what we're

384
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 3: gonna be here in the twenty twenty five season.

385
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 2: Layam first draft as an NFL head coach. Was it

386
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 2: different than you expected about what you thought you were

387
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 2: gonna experience going in?

388
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of about what I what I thought in

389
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: a lot of ways.

390
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 7: You know, it was fortunate enough in LA right, like

391
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 7: you're you're in and out and so you do get

392
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 7: the workings of it and the feeling of it. But yeah,

393
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 7: when it's when it's ours and when it's this you're

394
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 7: a part of it in a different landscape.

395
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 9: It was.

396
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 7: It was really cool. It was really cool to see

397
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,640
Speaker 7: this guy work. I mean, that's this is his super

398
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 7: Bowl really in a lot of ways.

399
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 1: At first, I mean.

400
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 7: This is this is the first super Bowl that's happened

401
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 7: for us, you know. Really he was unbelievable. And the communication,

402
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 7: the resilience, the ability to move around this draft and

403
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 7: navigate it the way he did and the way these

404
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 7: guys communicated was really fun to watch. So the work

405
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 7: was done, and then he went and operated in this

406
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 7: staff went operated at a high level, and it was really.

407
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: Cool to see. It's really cool to see the guys.

408
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,479
Speaker 7: The player's response is to hear that, because that's what

409
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 7: it's all about. When you get them on the phone

410
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 7: and you actually get to hear the response and make

411
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 7: somebody's dream come true, that's what it's really all about.

412
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 4: Liquent, he tapped it at the end there. Well, it

413
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 4: was a special call. There's no doubt he brought the juice.

414
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: Ye and James, I know the undrafted free agent process.

415
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 2: He said, you wrapped it up without I guess sharing

416
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 2: too much into your process. What he give us a

417
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 2: peek int of what goes into that what looks like

418
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 2: for you.

419
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, once the bell rings and the draft has concluded,

420
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 3: our coaching staff and our scouting staff, who are paired

421
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 3: together by position, they.

422
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 4: Began making calls to agents to see if.

423
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 3: A player has interest in coming to Jacksonville and began

424
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 3: sort of walking through the idea of, hey.

425
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 4: Here's the current roster.

426
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 3: Here's a path that you can put yourself in to

427
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 3: be competitive, whether it's to make the fifty three man

428
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 3: roster the practice squad, and go from there to see

429
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 3: if we can come to some agreement contractually.

430
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 8: All right, last one, Sorry, all right, William, Sorry we

431
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 8: didn't get a chance to ask you about Why or

432
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 8: Kalo yesterday, just in terms of.

433
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: What they bring to the table.

434
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 8: How do you feel about the obviously why.

435
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: It's like everywhere?

436
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think like you said about why, it is

437
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 7: the ability to play multiple spots at a high level

438
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 7: and just the finish, the way the guy plays.

439
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: The toughness. Uh, he's rooted in.

440
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 7: That, right, Like that's kind of what he prides himself

441
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 7: on being and it's what he's kind of known for

442
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 7: around that building, is being a guy that finishes, that

443
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 7: plays the game the right way, that approaches it the

444
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 7: right way, and he's and he's a big du he's long.

445
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 7: So and then Caleb Man, this is somebody that you know,

446
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 7: we we've been really excited about for the last few

447
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 7: weeks here especially, And you know, I worked with John

448
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 7: sommerl at Tulane, actually bought his house and I was

449
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 7: leaving Lexington and so I you know, got a little

450
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 7: trust there. And but man, he's he's dynamic. You know,

451
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 7: he can run. One of the better tacklers in this draft.

452
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 7: And the leadership, the way that he communicates, the passion

453
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 7: for the game. Again, those are the things that really

454
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 7: stood out to me about those two guys.

455
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: Thanks, Thank you guys.

456
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 4: Thanks my coverage guys,
