1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,279 Speaker 1: I saw the report last week about how the Jaguars 2 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: aren't getting a lot of calls right now for the 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: number one overall pick. I'm not sure why that's news breaking. 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: We still have two weeks ago. I wouldn't imagine you're 5 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: getting called at this moment.

The 14 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: off season program is upon US players arrived today for 15 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: Phase one weightlifting and meetings. Brian, I think we should 16 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: should highlight the fact that it's a voluntary workout, very 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: much so, right um, And it would be interesting to 18 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: see how many people volunteer to come work out. Um, 19 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: you know, last year there was everyone was here as 20 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: quite the headline U and everyone was, you know, on 21 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: the football side of the former staff, we're beating their 22 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: chest about it. Um. I get the sense that you're 23 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: going to have a good turnout because people are gonna 24 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: like to work for Doug, But I don't know that. Yeah, 25 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: and you would think they want to come in and 26 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: end me and be here for the first team meeting. 27 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: I saw Josh Allen was walking in traps E T 28 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: and you know, the guys you would expect to be here. 29 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: But it's something we talked about every single year, and 30 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: that was a huge headline last year that everyone was 31 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: here and look how it turned out. So I think 32 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: it's a little bit overplayed the attendance in this time 33 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 1: of year. I always go back to my favorite Edgrein 34 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: James quote. He said, I didn't graduate from Miami, that 35 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: was there long enough to know volunteering and h I 36 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: think in the spirit of that, my impression, my understanding 37 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: is that Doug Peterson very much understands that and that 38 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: is another sign of a couple of things that he played. 39 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: And usually ex coaches who have played typically view the 40 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: off season very uh maturely, if you will, and they 41 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: don't put quite as much emphasize on it. They know 42 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: what it is and isn't. Uh. My impression strongly is 43 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: that Doug Peterson really considers this voluntary. If you're here, fine, 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: If you're not here, no pressure. You gotta be ready 45 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: for training camp when it comes around. But I think 46 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: he knows most players are gonna be here. These are 47 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: grown men, and they're gonna be here as much as 48 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: they need to be here to prepare or they won't 49 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: be here. And I think you're always going to see 50 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: the Draguars numbers be higher than maybe the league average 51 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: because guys live here, right. I mean, it's not like 52 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: you're in Green Bay or Minneapolis where you're leaving in 53 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: the off season and want to work out at home 54 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: in Texas. When you live in North Florida, it's just 55 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: as easy to come work here with these coaches and 56 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: get the added benefit if there is an of being 57 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: around the building and around your teammates. Um, so you're 58 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: always going to see the Jaguars numbers be good. I'm 59 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: with John. I mean, I can barely remember last offseason. 60 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: You know profile what you saw on the field and 61 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: where you know where the storylines were. It just doesn't 62 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: matter at this time of the year. What matters is 63 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: if the veterans understand what it takes to be ready 64 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: to play and show up ready to play. They got 65 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: from A to B, which was big so that sometimes 66 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: they did get I don't think it's insignificant either, And 67 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. As we talked to players, I think 68 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: we'll get this vibe um of the professionalism and the 69 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: calmness of Doug Peterson and the the overall sense. And 70 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm don't told. I don't try to putting it into words. 71 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: I've been there, I know what I'm doing. Utability, the 72 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: fact that it's starting today and not last Monday. I 73 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: don't know if he was trying to send a message 74 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: with that, but I think it's very symbolic of I 75 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: know how long we need to prepare to get ready, 76 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: how long we're allowed to get ready, and maximizing every 77 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: minute is not really his thing. It's this is how 78 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: long we need, this is what we need to get done. 79 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: And I do think if players don't sense it already, 80 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna sense that very quickly. Quick story. Last night, 81 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: I was at a speaking engagement and a guy who 82 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: is around this franchise on the Periphery came out to 83 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: me to tell me that he had been at a 84 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: golf club where Doug was was a guest for lunch 85 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: and how many people walked away. I mean, there's people 86 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: who are around this franchise. This is not foreign to them. Said, 87 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: I've never been around a football coach who was so relaxed, 88 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: who was so down to earth, who was so normal. Uh. 89 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: And that's the that's that's the vibe he gives off 90 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: to everyone he goes. And I can't stress enough. These 91 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: are people who have been around here, they understand it, 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: and for them to say it stuck out to me. Yeah. 93 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: I was talking to someone in the break room just now. 94 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: I was getting my coffee on this audio only podcast 95 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: where you can't see my coffee. Yes, And they were saying, okay, well, 96 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: how was the first team meeting? It was, well, it 97 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: was about twenty minutes and it was pretty sure. And 98 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: he said, yeah, let's get to work. I got it. 99 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: No hooplah, no hurrah, just yep, you're here, thanks for 100 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: being here, let's go. He's a professional football coach. And 101 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: that was my big takeaway JP from the from the 102 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: podcast that I did with Dan Pompey who wrote his book. UM, 103 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: I can't tell you how I'm glad I was to 104 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: hear this quote from Dan POMPEII, and it was basically 105 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: that he thought Doug was high, high and e Q. 106 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: And I'm sure Brian knows what e Q is that 107 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: I know it's it's extra quotient. It's not that, but um, 108 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: it's emotional quot and it's about can you please explain 109 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: what that means? The way Dan explained it, who wrote 110 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: the book was it's very much about how you deal 111 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: with people, how you handle people, and how you bring 112 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: along a group, and how you lead. And I think 113 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: I've gone on and on for five or six years 114 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: now about how I think that's the most important thing 115 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: about NFL coaching. If players look at the front of 116 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: the room and believe in this guy, no matter what 117 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: he's saying. Technically, if they believe in the head coach 118 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: and the leader and they trust this guy and he 119 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: can create an environment to succeed, then you're in good shape. 120 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: And I just can't believe that. It appears to me 121 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: like Doug Peterson is gonna be the best we've had 122 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: around here a long time at that they're getting good 123 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: Friday off this Friday Friday. Imagine that. So this is Friday, Yeah, 124 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: no doubt. This is the Jaguar's Reporters podcast. Now, of course, 125 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: the meeting portion of this phase one is vital because 126 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: you're it's the first time you're being able to talk 127 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: football with the players and install a new offense and 128 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: a new look defense. Now, there'll be some changes once 129 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: they actually get on the field and see what guys 130 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: can do. Mike Colbo was in with us on Thursday 131 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: on Happy Hour, the defensive coordinator, and he basically said that, 132 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: you know, well, we'll see what they can and can't do, 133 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: and then we'll adjust the scheme around that once we 134 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: get on the field. But these two weeks ahead, Ashton 135 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,559 Speaker 1: are big to at least get something on the screen 136 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: in front of these guys. Yeah, and I think we 137 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: we overplay at times. You know, we'll see on Twitter 138 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: the weightlifting and all of them together and that makes 139 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: you excited. But we've said it before. I mean, what's 140 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: crucial right now is them being together in a film. Well, 141 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: and I'd be surprised if you didn't see a hundred 142 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: percent of the guys come through here at least once 143 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: in the next two weeks. Right, It might not all 144 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: be a hundred percent Monday through Thursday, but over the 145 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: course the next couple of weeks, you will see everybody 146 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: work their way through here because JP, as you mentioned, 147 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: you can interact with the coaches, and they're all going 148 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: to want the advantage of having face time with whoever 149 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: their position coaching coordinator is. Quarterback, I would not be 150 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: against at some point. Most quarterbacks do it anyway, quarterbacks 151 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: it being mandatory in the off season, like most of 152 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: the great ones do it anyway, and until you get 153 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: it beyond that, voluntary, very much voluntary as long as 154 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: you as long as you know it, as long as 155 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: you get it, that's fine. When you're eating up ten 156 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: percent of the salary cap, that doesn't seem unreasonable. Yeah, 157 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: And I wonder like someone like a Shack Griffin, you 158 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: know you qush okay, I know he lives in Miami. 159 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: Is he gonna come up here every single day? He's 160 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: gonna stay here for two weeks? I get, you know, 161 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: the voluntariness of it. Come for a couple of days, 162 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: go back type of deal. It's voluntary. You know. I 163 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: went four years to Alabama, and I know the voluntary 164 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: as well.

I heard it was 176 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: I liked the reality series back in the nineties. Osborne. 177 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: That's that's a different Osboard.

Hey, 181 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: we're just over two weeks until the NFL Draft, That's right, 182 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: around the corner as well. So the question today, how 183 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: are he's feeling at number one overall? If you're picking today, 184 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: Ashland will start with you, who are you picking at 185 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: number one? I'm staying with Hutchinson. I'm molding. I'm not 186 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: changing at all these past two weeks, two weeks going forward. 187 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna stay with it. I think it's the 188 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: obvious choice. And I saw the report last week about 189 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport saying how the Jaguars aren't getting a lot 190 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: of calls right now for the number one overall pick. 191 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: I'm not sure why that's newsbreaking when we still have 192 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: two weeks ago. I wouldn't imagine you're getting calls at 193 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: this moment. Maybe draft night, But that was a big 194 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: headline that the Jaguars are. Most people don't follow it 195 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 1: as closely as we do, obviously, and they don't realize 196 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: that you can't just trade out of number one because 197 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: you want a bevy of pigs. They don't. They don't, 198 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: they don't follow the circumstances. But this was clear from 199 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: the very beginning that this would not be a position 200 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: based on the players available at the top, where the 201 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: Jaguars would be able to move. Yeah, I'm gonna stick 202 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: with Hutchinson. Um, although I I feel like I'm sticking 203 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: with Hutchinson out of a familiarity, and I really don't 204 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: believe that they are absolutely locked in on him yet 205 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: UM reports are and senses they're doing their due due diligence. 206 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker would not surprise me at this point. Anything 207 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: outside defensive front would surprise me at this point. But 208 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: that said, in the mock drafts that I always put 209 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: together every Monday, there is more legitimate, what I would 210 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 1: call really respected analysts who still think Evan Neils in play. Um. 211 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: I still think offensive line and is in play because 212 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: there are people who think he's really, really really good. 213 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: So um, and you can play multiple positions. Going to 214 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: be careful and analyzing this of getting too caught up 215 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: in sort of the wave everybody's saying Aidan Hutchinson. Well, 216 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: what happens a lot of times is I say and Hutchinson, 217 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: or actually what happens is Ashton says Aidan Hutchinson. That 218 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: sounds good, and then all of a sudden, for three 219 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: weeks people don't know that much about it, are sort 220 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: of piggybacking off that and then it becomes well the 221 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: buzz is, well, I'm not the buzz. So the only 222 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: buzz that matters is that Trent Balky and not Doug 223 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: Peterson on this. And you know, my impression is that 224 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: I have heard nothing from them to make me think 225 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: they're locked in on anybody, So we don't know. I 226 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: am not going with Hutchinson. Um. I am a best 227 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: player available guy, and the best available player in this 228 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: draft is your boy, Ikey Aquanu. Um. I've spent a 229 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: lot of time watching and reading about this kid. You 230 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: realize not only was he a great football player, but 231 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: he was a state champion wrestler. He ran the fourth 232 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: leg of the four by one meter relay as a 233 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: two five pounder on a state qualifying team. Um is 234 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 1: as well rounded a person as he is a player. 235 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: And I read this in Dane Bruegler's analysis of him, 236 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: which forced me to dive in. He says, when he 237 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: blocks you, he doesn't just want to move you. He 238 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 1: wants to take your soul. Right. That's the way he plays. 239 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: Give me him. That's what I want at number one. 240 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: Whether it's a defensive end who destroys the end, or 241 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: whether it's the offensive tackle who is so nasty you 242 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: worry about penalties because he's going to finish every play. 243 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: I love watching Quentin Nelson when the Colts offensive line. 244 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna tell me there's a left tackle I can 245 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: have there, or I can get a really good pass 246 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: rusher who may physically be as good as he's ever 247 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: going to be the day he walks in, but will 248 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: always work hard. No, give me the guy with more upside, 249 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: and I don't care whether it's offensive or defensive line. 250 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: I don't care whether they're keeping Came or not. By 251 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 1: the way, he hasn't signed the tender as of this recording. 252 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: Give me a quantu as the guy at the top 253 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: of the draft JP. That's how you do radio, right, people, 254 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: So every every podcast A yeah, I'm going to say 255 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: who's on the list, but hey, by the end, one 256 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: of us in trouble. Football is not a game for 257 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: well adjusted men, right. This kid had offers from Harvard, 258 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: a m i t. Academic, so he appears to be 259 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: that perfect blend of maladjusted football player and really well 260 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: adjusted human being. If that's the case, and he's a 261 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: great player, man, I'm not taking a second tier player 262 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: because it's a Neat, I'm taking the number one guy. 263 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: I'm kind of leaning towards Traybon Walker the more I 264 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: hear and see him about him, you know, as a 265 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: starter all last year, but flashed a lot earlier in 266 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: his career and you know, stood out on a really 267 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: good Georgia defensive lot. Of course, we're two and a 268 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: half weeks away. That could change three times, but it's 269 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: a fact. But that name has popped up more and 270 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: more and more over the last month and a half, 271 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: and there's reason behind it. The guy can play fascinating 272 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: draft and I think we started started feeling at the 273 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl and really felt that at the Combine that 274 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: this was his conversation was going to keep taking place 275 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: and it was going to be real until until draft week. 276 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: I don't know that we're going to see reports the 277 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: Friday before the draft. Hey, Jaguars are locked in on X. 278 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: I think the conversation and there are legitimate, the reason's 279 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: legitimate arguments for each guy, and it's close enough at 280 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: the top with the team there needing. You know, I 281 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: know we hate that word, but it's not unreasonable to 282 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: draft a left tackle. Still, it's not unreasonable to draft 283 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: and Edgdresher here. Um, if there was a you know, 284 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: a quarterback in the conversation, well you would know that 285 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: Jaggars weren't taking that point. So it is as wide 286 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: open at the top of the draft as I can remember. 287 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: Details about the Jaguars first round Draft party should be 288 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: coming this week as well. I think a little later 289 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: in the week. The announcement will come. No matter what. 290 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: The announcements will have coverage on Jaguars dot Com of 291 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: course from the event, and on our Jaguars social channels 292 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: as well, Twitter and Facebook and YouTube. And you'll be 293 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas headed that way two weeks from tomorrow. Um. 294 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: Now that is a place, Brian, you can lose your soul. Yeah, 295 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not. I'm not worried about not bring 296 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: it back. I'm not. I'm not a big Vegas guy. 297 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: I've been to be honest with you, I hope that. 298 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean, Nashville did the best job. I thought Nashville 299 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: was amazing. Uh, Vegas is just going to turn the 300 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: lights and you know they will do something that will 301 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: blow your eyes out. I guess they're doing something in 302 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: the fountain at Bilancio. Um okay um to me, they've 303 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: got to they got to really do something special to 304 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: equal what Nashville did. I thought it was the best 305 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: site I've been to. I've never been a vase. Really. 306 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: I assume at some point that Jaguars will play and 307 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: they'll make me here of the game. So it is 308 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: a stunning city. It's been about ten years for me 309 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: were it was. It was in the Pacific Coast League. Okay, 310 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: they were in the league, but that's a long time ago. 311 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: It's just so it really doesn't affect me. It just 312 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: it just never stops that. That thing is They're just 313 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: constant visual stimulation, you know, the just lights and people 314 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: and it's it's not just ye just at some point 315 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: it becomes overpower, which is why I suppose most people 316 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: just going for the weekend. Yes, my mother always says 317 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 1: only two days there, that's her rule. It's amazing. The 318 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: flight into Vegas. Everybody's excited, Oh yeah, Vegas. Like the 319 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: flight leaving Las Vegas is the most depressing flight you'll 320 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: ever fly on.
