Thank goodness, let's just get 13 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 1: this thing going. Man. It's so excited, just so excited 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: to see how everything turns out. Obviously, we're assuming that 15 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is going to be the number one, but 16 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: it's the rest, the red of the squad, just making 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: sure we get enough blue chip players because j P. 18 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: John it it takes tendteel blue chip players for you 19 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 1: to feel the Super Bowl continuing team. So we've got 20 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: to make sure that we stocked probably kind of up 21 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: to Andy when it comes to those stars, Yeah, better 22 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: have one. I mean, this Trevor kid better be the 23 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: real deal. If not, here's the thing. I get it 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: for the good of the franchise, but I will feel 25 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: if you're talking about it for four months to build up, 26 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: I'd almost feel personally cheated if he's not good and 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: it's all about John it's I know, I know, I'm 28 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,279 Speaker 1: learning the situations like this before. I mean, I guess 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: every number one overall quarterback is talked like this and assumed. 30 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: But I mean, this is one of the surest bets 31 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: that you've had come into the league in a long time. 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: So the draft is a percentage games. So the percentage 33 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: you're with the Jags. That's the good news.

Let's continue the conversation here on the Huddle 39 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: Up Podcast about Trevor Lawrence. He well, if there was 40 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: any speculation, which there really wasn't. Well, he kind of 41 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 1: ended it on Sunday with a tweet of his own. 42 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: There was a Sports Illustrated article that came out and 43 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: a couple of his comments in there. You know, some 44 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: pundits went the wrong way with them, and he quickly 45 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: came back out and reaffirmed what he said and was 46 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: fine with it. And then he thanked the Jaguars fans 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: and a tweet on Sunday he said, we really appreciate 48 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: the wedding gifts and donations for the charities of our choice. 49 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: In addition to the donations, Marissa and I will also 50 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: be donating twenty dollars to charities in Jacksonville. Thanks again. 51 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: We hope to be a part of your community soon. 52 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: And that was the end of the tweet. I think 53 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: they are excited to be here, Bucky, which national a 54 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: lot of national media types won't even believe. I think 55 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: this is the perfect marriage in terms of not only 56 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: Trevor being who he is in terms of what we 57 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: think he will be as the player, but I think 58 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: his demeanor and how he embraces being the franchise quarterback. 59 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,679 Speaker 1: He embraced it when he was at high school in Clarksville, Cartersville. 60 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: He embraced it when he was at Clemson, and he's 61 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,399 Speaker 1: certainly already embracing it down in Jacksonville. And a lot 62 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: of what it is to be the franchise quarterback has 63 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: little to do with on the field and more to 64 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: do with what you represent in terms of being QB one. 65 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: I think we already see that he has a level 66 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: of maturity that will enable him to handle all the 67 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: responsibilities to come along with being the face of the franchise. Bucky. 68 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: I think it was you a couple of weeks ago 69 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: talked about it, and you know, we kicked around on 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: this show. Some guys were born to be QB one, 71 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: so to speak. It's amazing to me, and it's telling 72 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: the me that Trevor Lawrence has been QB one not 73 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: only on his own team but in the country for 74 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: what four or five years now, which which a couple 75 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: of things you're encouraging for Jaguars fans. I think it's different. 76 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: I never played, but I've talked to enough players to 77 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: know it's different. When you have that on you all 78 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: the time for five or six seven years, you come 79 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: out of that different than if you were saying Mac Jones, 80 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not criticizing Mac Jones, but anybody else, 81 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 1: because everybody else could argue that they've got some something 82 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: to prove, or maybe somebody was overlooking them. He's been 83 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: the target, not only a target, but expected to be 84 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: a leader by teammates and setting the example within his building. 85 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: Probably since he can remember that won't be a new 86 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: thing when he comes in here. That won't be something 87 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's dealing with. That's something he's 88 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: very well prepared for. And he's always been the leader 89 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: of the team, always been QB one. Furthermore, and I 90 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: know you and JP have heard me say, it's before 91 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: the world of football has had four years to pick 92 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: this kid apart and still can't do it. That's unbelievable 93 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: to me. I mean it, it really only compares with 94 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: maybe luck. Even when Peyton was coming out three years ago, 95 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: there were questions. There were people saying, well, he's not this, 96 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: he's not that, or you know, so he turned out 97 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: to be the perfect prospect, But it was a Ryan 98 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: Lee Peyton manning debate. Very few have ever been the guy, unquestioned, 99 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: the guy like this kid is. It's fascinating, but he 100 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: couldn't be more prepared for it. No, he couldn't be. 101 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: And I think you touched on something, John, that's kind 102 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: of like one of the underlying things. And I can't 103 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: wait to see how this plays out. I don't believe 104 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: that Trevor could walk around and operate with a chip 105 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: because I don't think he's ever seen himself as the underdog. 106 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: He has never had an opportunity to be the underdog. 107 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: And so when you take Trevor Lawrence who has that attitude, 108 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: and then you also take Urban Meyer, who I don't 109 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: think he fancies himself as being an underdog. I think 110 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: for us in Jacksonville, I think this is a new 111 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: way of thinking, right because for for so many of us, 112 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: like when it comes to Jacksonville, like, hey, we don't 113 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: get enough attention, we don't do this, look at us 114 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: like we're just scratching in clawe. And I think what 115 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna see is from a cultural standpoint, it will 116 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: be a different approach that when the Jags walk out, 117 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: particularly under the leadership of those two guys, they are 118 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: going to puff out their chest a little bit and 119 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: feel like no, no, no no, this is not an upset, 120 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: This is not a surprise. This is what we're supposed 121 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: to do. We're supposed to win games. And that changes 122 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: because when that begins to happen, that becomes contagious and 123 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: infectious and you begin to this is saying like a 124 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: winner's win. Guys just kind of figure it out. And 125 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: those guys have always won. And so I think a 126 00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: lot of the hope and a lot of the come 127 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: in pairing Trevor Lawrence up with Erban mart Is because 128 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: they always want and they'll just figure it out. Yeah, 129 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: not everybody needs a chip, John, Like, I mean, it's 130 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: okay to be good at what you do, right, I mean, 131 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: and have been good at what you do for a 132 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: long time. And that's the case certainly with Trevor, is 133 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: certainly the case with Urban. And that's a great point, Bucky, 134 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: about just changing the mindset around here. Now. There will 135 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: be adversity. That's just how it's going to go in 136 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: the NFL. At times. There'll be some losses and some 137 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: things maybe not go as well as everybody plan. How 138 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: do they work out of that is something I think 139 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: a lot of people will see. But the general mindset, 140 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: John uh it seems like it's going to change. As 141 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: Bucky said, it's it's fascinating this sense. I'm not sure 142 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: there's ever in and I've done the research. Certainly in 143 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: the modern era, there's never been a head coach quarterback 144 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: combination come into the league as unused to losing. Is 145 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: these two because you know, you think about it. Andrew 146 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: Lucton come in like that, he was he played Stanford, 147 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: he won, but he certainly had a taste of not 148 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: winning national championships there we're not competing for them. And 149 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: then he was playing for Pagano and Bruce Arians and 150 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: there wasn't really that dynamic. When Peyton came in, he 151 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: had had success of tennessee all the dynamics. It's absolutely fascinating. 152 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: I agree with Bucky. It's going to be interesting to 153 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: see how they handle that. And I'm not going for 154 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: the cliche here, well, how is Urban Mey are going 155 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: to handle losing? He's never done it? But can that 156 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: translate to the NFL and will that sort of rub 157 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: off on their teammates of we're not expected to lose 158 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: it JP. I felt like there was an element of 159 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: that in two thousand seventeen around here when Klaus came 160 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: in and when those guys started to win, it wasn't 161 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: exactly like this, but I remember talking to Doug Marone 162 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: during that He was a little fascinated by the team's 163 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: mindset because he said a couple of times, Yeah, they're good, 164 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 1: even though maybe the nobody expects them to be. The 165 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: confidence of that team sort of transcended anything they had 166 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: ever done, and I remember Jack said, I don't want 167 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: to tell them they're not supposed to do that, because 168 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: it's working. And there was a little bit of an 169 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: element of that. If you remember, why are these guys 170 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: so confident? And they were brash and went to well, 171 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: I think Trevor and Urbans sort of earned that and 172 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: it will be fascinating to see if if they can 173 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: come in and sort of carry that forward with people 174 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville and the Jaguars teams and thanks, you know, 175 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: why shouldn't we be good? It's an interesting dynamic and um, 176 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: we'll find out as the spring and summer moves along, 177 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: and obviously on into training camp and the preseason and beyond. 178 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: This is the Huddle Up Podcast, JP Shadrick, John Osier, 179 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks. Glad you're along with us some big news 180 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: over the weekend. Late last week, over the weekend, a 181 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: few teams, well most teams in the NFL now have 182 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: issued statements from the NFL p A opting out saying 183 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: they're not coming to voluntary workout. Well, some teams are saying, okay, well, 184 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: there's some guys that need the bonus money there, they 185 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: can go, they can do their thing. Um. The Jaguars, 186 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: by the way, I think have the third highest offseason 187 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: workout bonus money in the NFL. Uh. There has not 188 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: been an announcement via the p A for the Jaguars 189 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: as of yet, but over twenty teams Bucky have done 190 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: this so far. It's uh status quo here in Jacksonville, though, Yeah, 191 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 1: it's status quotes. So here here's the thing, because it's 192 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 1: really interesting how how this goes, Right. So, the NFL 193 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 1: p A has certainly been pushing for a virtual offseason 194 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: where you don't have guys come in, you kind of 195 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: minimize the contact and the work and those things. And 196 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: for some teams like that's great, right, It's it's great 197 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: because you have veteran players and all the continuity and 198 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,599 Speaker 1: all the other stuff. Jacksonville is a little bit of 199 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: a different situation for a couple of different reasons. One, 200 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: the team hasn't really been good, You've got a new 201 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: head coach coming in, the team is going to skew 202 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: younger than most other teams. And then you bring up 203 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: something that is really an under discussed part of it, 204 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: the workout bonus program. So the end run around that 205 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: stuff is okay, look, it's voluntary, but guess what if 206 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: you come to of your workouts, you get X amount 207 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: of dollars. And so you will see more teams begin 208 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: to do that. It reminds me of when I first 209 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: in the league in the mid nineties. That was kind 210 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: of the end, right, if you want participation, you have 211 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: to pay the guys to show up to do it, 212 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: because at the time in Green Bay or other places like, 213 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to be there, spend my entire offseason there. 214 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: But I mean, if you're gonna direct the positi a 215 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: couple of coins, I mean, you know, I can, I can, 216 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: I can find my way there a few. So I 217 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: think that's what you will begin to see. You'll see 218 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: teams do it. And so the fact that you haven't 219 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: heard of major statement from Jacksonville and some of those 220 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: guys like, I'm not losing any because of that. So 221 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: that's what it is. So before John can get mad 222 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: at the players and stuff for not coming up, Hey, 223 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: now show up, you just have to ensue no, I'm 224 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: actually not. I mean, I don't misrepresented. I'm not mad 225 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: at players for not showing up because I absolutely believe 226 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: when it's voluntary. And JP has heard me say this 227 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: over the years. If guys don't want to show up, 228 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: that's fine. I just as a union in mass it 229 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: strikes me as interesting that older veteran players are saying 230 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: that it's not necessary, when I wonder if it's really 231 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: not necessary for younger players. And the other side of 232 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: that is, from a football standpoint, you can't tell me 233 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: that the level of play for a young team with 234 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: a first year head coach and a first year coordinator 235 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: won't be affected if you don't have on field work 236 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: for those ten those ten O t A s in 237 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: the mini camps. It just defies reason that you wouldn't 238 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: be able to get something out of that. So I 239 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: just wonder, guys Bucky and JP if at some point, 240 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: if there's any way to collectively bargain in the future 241 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: some sort of happy medium where you can meet in 242 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: the middle on this, because I don't care what the 243 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: NFL p A says. I don't believe that it benefits 244 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: the quality of play. That just doesn't make sense to 245 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: me that you wouldn't get some sort of benefit out 246 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: of having guys here. And I do wonder if there's 247 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: a way to collectively bargain into it to where you 248 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: could have people here who it would benefit maybe not. 249 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: And JP, by the way, Bucky can't really relate to 250 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 1: this because he was making so much when he was 251 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: playing right pointult workout. Oh my god, man, I would 252 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: I would love to have a little, a little, a 253 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: little workout bonus. I would. I never when you're playing 254 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: on the minimal celle, you don't get workout bonuses laced 255 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: in the thing. You show up voluntarily for all things. 256 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: I think I think this is something to think about 257 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: because this happened back when Jim Harbaugh took over for 258 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: the Niners. I think they were coming out of the 259 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: lockout deal and the Niners hit the ground running. Urban 260 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: Miners experience in college might be beneficial now with all 261 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: of this stuff, because in college you might have spring practice, 262 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: but you don't have all these O t s and 263 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: doing it like you just kind of come to training 264 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: camp and you get ready to play your first game. 265 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: With the days and stuff that you have, you don't 266 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: have the ability to really have these summer workouts in 267 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: those things. I do want to if you'll be able 268 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: to pull out some of those old kind of get 269 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: ready plans and utilize them with the Jaguars. Because Jim 270 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: Harbaugh was able to go from Stanford to have immediate 271 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: success with the Niners without offseason workouts and those things. 272 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: They hit the ground running or whatever. So I do 273 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: wonder if coach Meyer will have a plan in place 274 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: and be like, Okay, this isn't that different. I've never 275 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: experienced it any other way. Let's get it going, and 276 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: let's find a way to to kind of make it 277 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: happen regardless of the circumstances. What if urban you know, 278 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: when it actually happened though, he was like, you know what, 279 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: we don't need them anyway. Well, just everybody gets O 280 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: t AF we used to do it this other way. 281 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna happen, No, don't. I don't 282 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: think it's I don't think it's gonna happen but I 283 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: do wonder. I mean, John, you bring up a good point, 284 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: because football is a developmental game. It's one that requires 285 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: a ton of reps and in those things. So how 286 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: do you get guys ready to play, particularly when you 287 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: have such a young team. We watched this young team 288 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: falter in the fourth quarter of a bunch of games, 289 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: and some of us like, man, we just gotta wait 290 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: for him to grow up. Well, how can we help 291 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: them grow up quicker? Without having O T A s 292 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: or practices or mini camps? What can be created to 293 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: allow these guys to work on their skills, to give 294 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: them a chance to be better when they do show up. 295 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: I think what's interesting to JP is I think when 296 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: Urban talks about Hope not putting words in his mouth here, 297 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: but I think when he talks about growing the culture 298 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: and the importance of this offseason, I'm sure he'd like 299 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: to have him on the field practicing. I mean, I 300 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: don't doubt that football coaches want to practice, So that's 301 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: you know, it's in there and a sure. But when 302 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: he's talked about it, he hasn't emphasized the losing practice 303 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: as much as just losing the time spent around each other. 304 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: And around the coaches and you know, so I get 305 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: that the practice is important, but it seems to me 306 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: like he's equally concerned about just not being able to 307 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: sit there on February eight and if you want to 308 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: have an assistant coach sit there and talk ball with 309 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: a backup in sidelinebacker and on those sorts of things, 310 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: eat lunch together, having a meeting where you're talking culture, indoctrinating. 311 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: So I almost think it's half and half. I think 312 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: he's he's just concerned about losing that and teaching these 313 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: guys the quote unquote Jaguar's way as actually being on 314 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: the field and JP, I'm wondering if you sort of 315 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: sense the same thing when you listen to Urban about that. 316 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: It feels like it, right, I mean, because that's a 317 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: big piece of getting this organization going the it way, 318 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: especially for him standing in front of a team, standing 319 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 1: in a weight room, standing you know, off to the 320 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: side of the hallway with a guy getting to know 321 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: his players because he doesn't know half the guys, right, 322 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: he hasn't been around them, and the other half or 323 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: more will bring in this offseason. So how do you 324 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: get everybody on the same page. I think is is 325 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: vital for that And it's a great point. John, Yeah, 326 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: I'm I'm with you on that. That's probably the big 327 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: piece of what he misses. I think the big piece 328 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: is what he's missing, and I think we're here this 329 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: right and it's Look, it's the buzzword that everyone utilizes 330 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: in business and a sport as you talk about culture. 331 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: Culture has little to do with like how many times 332 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: did Jaguars practice in those things, and more how to 333 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: do with the connectivity between players and players, coaches and 334 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 1: players and coach to coach. And the only time you 335 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: can foster that chemistry and the connectivity is to be 336 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 1: around each other. And so I'm sure that he had 337 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: probably a bunch or he has a bunch of team 338 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: building activities that don't include getting on the grass and 339 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: and and practicing whatever that might be bowling, doing other things. 340 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: But they have to get together because as much as 341 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: we talked about it being professional sports, it's a team 342 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: and you have to be able to think about something 343 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: bigger than yourself for the team to actually function. Even 344 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: though we talk about it is like hocus pocus is 345 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: kind of whatever, But that's part of that's part of 346 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: the deal. Like it's not something that we should really 347 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: think about in pro sports, but there's still that level 348 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: of connectivity and chemistry that you have to have to 349 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: be a very very successful team. Alright, so we'll say this. 350 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: I think we're a pretty good team on this podcast. 351 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: You know, we really haven't done this in person ever, right, 352 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: so this is only a virtual conversation we've had over 353 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: a year and a half. Right, But so the next 354 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: time we're all together, let's just let's go play paintball 355 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: or something, shot pool or something escape room, um, one 356 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: of those things I don't want. Yeah, I don't want 357 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: you to be too scared about that. John is like, 358 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: we have to find a maze and kind of get 359 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: our way out. But it'll help us be on a 360 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: tighter team, you know. Yeah, with my luck, I would 361 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: just just give up to completely lose this huddle up podcast. 362 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,719 Speaker 1: And season ticket renewals are here. You better lock in 363 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: your seats now if you haven't already.

So finally fun to talk about 381 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: events at Daily's Place. J P. Shadrick, Bucky Brooks, John Osher, 382 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: Trent Bawky, Jaguars general manager, spoke with the media this week. 383 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 1: They have plans for Urban Wire and Trin Bawkey to 384 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: speak with the full beat for the Jaguars on Wednesday, 385 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 1: but we had an early bird conversation or two I 386 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: got in for television. You'll see our conversation on the 387 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: Draft Special and Action Sports April twenty nine in the 388 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: in the UK as well on sky Sports NFL. That'll 389 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: be next week. But Johnny O you caught up with 390 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: him on Tuesday on the ozone podcast. And starting with 391 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: building culture with urban and finding players to fit that mold, 392 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,959 Speaker 1: you know you have to be on the same page. 393 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 1: You have to know culturally what you're looking for, you 394 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: have to know schematically what you're looking for. Not every 395 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: player in this draft is a cultural fit for every team. 396 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: Uh not every player in this draft is a schematic 397 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: fit for for every team. And that's why everybody's boards 398 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: look so so much different on draft day. So what 399 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: you're trying to do is build your board for you, 400 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: and you specifically forget where the noise a where a 401 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: guy is going to go in the draft, because where 402 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: they go doesn't doesn't really make a difference. When you 403 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: figure that fifty or roughly fifty of the first round 404 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: picks don't play to that first round status, that should 405 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: give you an indication how difficult this is to get 406 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: it right. So I think as long as you're looking 407 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: at guys culturally and uh schematically physically, do they fit 408 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: what you're looking for. That's your best chance to build 409 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: a board specific to you and your best chance to 410 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: execute it properly undrafting. Okay, John, it's a team affair. Obviously, 411 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: they've had a few months to kind of get things together, 412 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: get the board going, figure out what player can fit 413 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: the culture, what player can play first of all and 414 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: fit that culture altogether. Yeah, And I thought it was 415 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: interesting in speaking with Trent. He made a point when 416 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: I asked him about Urban to talk about what a 417 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: contribution he had made from the standpoint of his knowledge 418 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: of the college players, which I think people expected. I 419 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: think that was something people throughout there in January when 420 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: Urban was hired. But as they say, Trent went there immediately. 421 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: It was clear to me that that was not a 422 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: pat answer. That Urban's knowledge of the players, his knowledge 423 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 1: of the college game. I would think, Bucky that that 424 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: was helped by him being in Ohio State but also 425 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: being at Fox Sports. And you know, I don't think 426 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 1: that's something to underestimate in this equation. It's not something 427 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: to underestimate. But let's just follow the bird the crumbs, right, 428 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: So I would say the bird stuffs the crumbs. This 429 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 1: is what it probably means as I'm looking at it. 430 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 1: Big school players, brand name players, meaning guys that the 431 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: big schools that we talked about and celebrate, Alabama's Ohio 432 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: States to Clemson, those guys, because when you think about 433 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: what Urban was exposed to, he was exposed to those. 434 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: He he wasn't going to some of the Mountain West 435 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: schools and some of the Conference USA. School is not 436 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: saying that players can't come from there, but I think 437 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: it would be more of a warm buffet approach to 438 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: the draft. Brand names, things that you're familiar with, that 439 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: you know about um because he's an old coach, You're 440 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: gonna think about guys that are four and five stars 441 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: that were on his recruiting list that he saw those 442 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: recognizable names. Because when you're recruiting at Ohier State, you're 443 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: recruiting the best of the best. It's not like you're, 444 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: oh Ay, let me find a one or two star 445 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 1: and develop them. I want the best of the best. 446 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: Give me the best players. We're gonna take them, We're 447 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: gonna max them out and get them going. I would 448 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: think in his first draft when they're talking about guys, 449 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: he is really going to push brand name players that 450 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: we've seen and recognized from TV and those things, because 451 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: that's the world that he that he comes from, and 452 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 1: Bucky would he also be I would think very uh 453 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,880 Speaker 1: production conscious, meaning he saw it happen and as opposed 454 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: to looking for sleepers, which I guess that ties into 455 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: what you're saying, but uh yeah, I would think that 456 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: high production on the college level would perhaps dazzle him 457 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: more than not absolutely. And I think that's the thing. 458 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna see more because scouting and drafting 459 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: can be two categories projection versus production, and I think 460 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: for urban coming from the college thing, I think it's 461 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: going to be more production base. I need to see 462 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: it before I can believe it. I need to see 463 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: you dominate before I can say that you're going to 464 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: be a dominant player. I don't want to just see 465 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: your measurables and say, oh, you did this in the 466 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,719 Speaker 1: forty and three cone and you have these dimensions and 467 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: oh you're gonna go this way. He wants to see it, 468 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: and I think if we go back and it'll be 469 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: interesting to do, maybe I'll do it before we get 470 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: on the next But let's go back and look at 471 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: his recruiting list and see the kind of guys that 472 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: he took at Florida and Ohio State, and how many 473 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: of those guys were projected, Hey, I'm gonna take a 474 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: three star and then he's gonna play. Well, it was 475 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: Percy Harving a three star, four star, five star when 476 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,199 Speaker 1: he got him. When he took Ezekiel Elliott and all 477 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: those other guys in Ohio State. How did those guys 478 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: rank on those recruiting lists. Because I don't think we're 479 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: gonna find many of those quote unquote hidden gems that 480 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: he's trying to do. I think it's already hard enough 481 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: to build a team. It's really hard to build a 482 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: team where you're also trying to develop guys that you 483 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: just don't know if they even can play in the league. 484 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: Let's good to our next Trenton bunky Bike from the 485 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: ozone podcasts. You know there's five picks in the top 486 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: sixty five for the Jaguars this year. Is it a 487 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: good year for that? Was the question? Trip Baucky says, Well, yeah, 488 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: it's always good to be at the top of the draft. 489 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: You know, it's like every other draft. There's there's positions 490 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: that are top heavy. Uh, there's positions that are bottom heavy. 491 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: There's positions that have guys that all the way throughout 492 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: the draft that you feel good about where where they 493 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: are for the value. Uh. So I don't think it's 494 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: any different than any other drafts that we've been a 495 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: part of. But yet the positional value has has changed 496 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: a little bit in some respects. You know, you look 497 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: at the tight end position, for instance, you know there 498 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: aren't as many tight ends as there used to be, uh, 499 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: at least in this given year. So when you look 500 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: at each position, uh, we feel good about where we've 501 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: got players valued. We feel good that within the first 502 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: sixty five we can come out of this thing with 503 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: five starters. And that's what you hope to do. If 504 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: you get a chance to take a swing at the 505 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: top sixty five players in the draft AFT and you 506 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: got to get to have five of those guys, you 507 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: should hope you can come away with with with five starters. 508 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: And what I meant by that, of course, before the 509 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: bite was it's it's nice to have a lot of 510 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: picks at the top of the draft. That doesn't mean 511 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: you've performed so well the year before most likely, but 512 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: there's they're in the position now John to get some 513 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: difference making players, guys that can really set a foundation 514 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: for the organization. A lot of starting football players can 515 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: come out of this. You no question, and he did 516 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: say that, uh, every draft is different and talked some 517 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: He didn't go into much detail on this because you 518 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: don't want to give away your hand, but it was 519 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: interesting tight end for example, said not as many great 520 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: tight ends in this draft as there are are in some drafts, 521 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: So you wonder where that's going to affect value on 522 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: that position. So it will be interesting maybe after the 523 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: draft to get his full insight into Okay, what positions 524 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: did you feel like you had to go after early 525 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: because you didn't feel like you were going to be 526 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: able to get him light He did not hint at 527 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: this at all, But you wonder with a position such 528 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: as wide receiver for example, where it's supposedly very very deep. Again, 529 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: if that doesn't force you to go after a different 530 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: position early knowing you could get a very good wide 531 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 1: receiver later. Certainly that's part of their pre draft planning, 532 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: you know, Bucky, I'm curious you followed GM's histories more 533 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: than a lot of people do because you study the 534 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: draft so much. Is that something that Trent does look 535 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,479 Speaker 1: at specific positions early, take them thinking that you can 536 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: get value somewhere else in the draft in another position. Yeah, John, 537 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: that's a good observation and point that you're bringing up. 538 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: It's one of those things that you have to assess 539 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: every year when you're dealing with the draft. You have 540 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: to be able to look at where is the draft 541 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: strong and deep and where is it very shallow? And 542 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: if we're thinking about impact players, that could lead you 543 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: to take a position that isn't as deep, take that 544 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: early so you can get the best of that and 545 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: then come back and circle around and get another position 546 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: that is maybe plentiful later on. And so if we 547 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: think about coming away with five impact players and those picks, 548 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: you have to assess, Okay, what what do we need 549 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: to get? And so if we talk about the tight 550 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: end position, that might mean taking a tight end before 551 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: others will say we need to take a tight end. Now. 552 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: The players talent and projection needs to match up with 553 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: where we're selecting him, meaning, hey, this guy is gonna 554 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: be an impact player worthy of being taken in the 555 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: second round. But a maybe with that first pick in 556 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: the second round, maybe we grab the tight end now 557 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: and come back and get We'll just throw this out 558 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: there are running back a little later in the second round. 559 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: Or maybe we go and attack the defensive tackle need 560 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: at the top of the second round, or maybe we 561 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,239 Speaker 1: attack it at the bottom of the first round. You know, 562 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and and thinking about the thing like mad 563 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: drafts or whatever. Everything has been about safety, but when 564 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: we think about it, the position to need has been 565 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: defensive tackle. So at some point we have to take 566 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: a defensive tackles so or bar More happens to be 567 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: there at twenty five, even though we could say, uh, 568 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: maybe he flashes hot of Coba. Hey, let's hey, let's 569 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: grab him now to get him. Or is there someone 570 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: else like Levi Andserick that might be somewhere at the 571 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: top of the second round. Let's make sure we get 572 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: that position field. And so as you're going through these scenarios, 573 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: a lot of the mocking that we're talking about those 574 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: sexy positions, the wide receivers and those things. There are 575 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: a million of those, but the big boys not as many, 576 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: and so you may have to make it a meat 577 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: and potatoes draft early and then go and get the 578 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: sprinkles for the cupcake later on. Yeah, it's kind of ironic. 579 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: JP people when they grade drafts, I think they look 580 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: at individual players. Okay, where did I have this guy, 581 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: this guy, this guy, this guy. To hear Bucky tell it, 582 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: you have to look at what the team was trying 583 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: to do overall, and may be assessing the draft more 584 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: so than trying to say, well, they took this guy 585 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: five or six positions too early. Well, maybe they were 586 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: trying to get something done and trying to build an 587 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: overall class as opposed to specifically looking at each player. 588 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: I kind of wonder, Bucky and JP, you know they're 589 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: going into this draft with ten players, how are ten selections? 590 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: Are they going to come out of this draft with 591 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: ten players selected? From what JP and I were talking about, 592 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: I kind of get the idea. Not I kind of 593 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: get the idea that they'll come out of this with 594 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: fewer than than ten selections. Yeah, and that leads us 595 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: to our final bite from Trent Balky about his history 596 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: of moving around in the draft. What prompts a trade 597 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: upward down and how difficult are those to execute? It's 598 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: usually an obligatory question. Would a GM be willing to 599 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: trade that first round pick. I'm gonna assume you're not 600 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: trading number one overall, but never never, never say never. 601 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: But overall your reputake is that you don't mind moving 602 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: around in the draft. What's your philosophy on that and 603 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: what prompts you to try to move? How do you 604 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: approach that? You gotta let the board speak. You know, 605 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: you you work for three d sixty four days out 606 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: of the year to get through that day one or 607 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: whatever number that is. And you've got a plan, and 608 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: you know you've got the players valued, and when the 609 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: board starts to fall, you can't predict how it's gonna fall, 610 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: so your your plan has to be very fluid. And 611 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: when the opportunity arises, when you're sitting there with the 612 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: pick and you still have three or four players that 613 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: you have twenty five value on, maybe you do move back. 614 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: But that's an organizational decision. That's something Coach and I 615 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: will work hard on during that day because you can't 616 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: plan for it. You can you can, uh, yeah, I 617 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: guess you can plan for it, but the reality is 618 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: draft day isn't predicted. You can plan all you want, right, 619 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: it has to be loud. So I asked him on 620 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: the TV interview, you know what was your is your 621 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: best draft moment, the one that's most memorable to you 622 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: in terms of trading or moving a selection. And the 623 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: first one that hit his head was in the UH 624 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: in the draft they got Carlos High and in San Francisco. 625 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: That would have he traded three times in like a 626 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: seven minute span, down, up, down, like either way, and 627 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: ended up with Carlos High. They executed all those trades 628 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: at one time. He does have a track record of 629 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: pulling the trigger and just going for it. Bucky. Yeah. 630 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: I think that's part of the deal, um. And I 631 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 1: think it's important to note, just for disclosure, Trainbaky work 632 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: for a long time with one of my mentor, Scott McCloy, 633 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: and we kind of come from the school that we 634 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: value players over picks. There's some some organizations that always 635 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 1: value picks. I want to have a bunch of picks, 636 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have all these guys and we're gonna 637 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: draft twelve guys or whatever. We got fifteen guys that 638 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: are taken into the six and seventh round, where some 639 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: people like I would rather have the really good player 640 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: and fewer picks. And so if I can get in 641 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: arranged to put myself to get what we call a 642 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: blue chip player, I will give up those later picks 643 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: to get a blue chip player. And so when you 644 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 1: think about two minds coming together, Trent, Balky and Urban Meyer, 645 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: I've already sitting in outline. Urban Meyer wants four and 646 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: five stars. He's not trying to get two star players. 647 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: He wants four and five stars. I want the Marquete name. 648 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: And then you have Balky, who is kind of training 649 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: around like crazy, is not afraid to trade to get 650 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: in range, that absolutely believes that the Jaguars may come 651 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: out of this with six players, with four of those 652 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: maybe up at the beginning of the draft, and they'd 653 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, okay, I'm fine with that. I got 654 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: four guys that I really really wanted. I'll give away 655 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: those rest of the picks because the four that I 656 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: want are better players than what potentially could be behind 657 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,399 Speaker 1: those other guys. And the other thing that we've seen 658 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: of late undrafted free agents, I think undrafted creatents are 659 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: making rosters more than the day three players. And so 660 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: if you have the ability to identify undrafted's and you 661 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: know how to develop those guys. You focus your effort 662 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: and energy on making sure you win day one and 663 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: day two, and then if you don't have as many 664 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: picks on day three, you focus on being able to 665 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: cultivate all those undrafted free agents. I think the numbers 666 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: day is they have five day one and day two 667 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: picks and five day three picks. Right, yes, the right 668 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:31,359 Speaker 1: trade every round four or five, six, seven to move 669 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: up if you can trade all the day two picks 670 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: to move up to get me out of there by Thursday? No, 671 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: are you, Mike dick it? That's what we're doing for me? 672 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 1: Is that what we're doing. Are you gonna put on 673 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: the the Ricky Williams dreads and go play golf the 674 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: rest of the day like we won't be Ricky Wheens dress. 675 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: You need that to move up three spots in the 676 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: first round. I'm fine with it. I'm fine with it. 677 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna have on the Trevor Lawrence wig. You're gonna 678 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: have the Trevor Lawrence We're gonna we're gonna do the podcast. 679 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: He's gonna have a blond wig on an eighty four. 680 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts Jersey on. He's gonna have all That's fine. 681 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: J C. Horne. Fine, one, do you have a do 682 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: you have a deadline on it?

I'm 689 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: still in favor of sixteen one o'clock home games many. 690 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's all about Johnny O's schedule.

This is the Huddle Up Podcast. 696 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: You can listen to the entire Trindbackey conversation with the 697 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,240 Speaker 1: Johnny oh on the ozone podcast available on the Official 698 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: Jaguars Podcast Network a free download, and you'll see the 699 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: television version in Jacksonville on Draft Night twenty nine and 700 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: in the UK if you're listening to this, you'll see 701 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,399 Speaker 1: it on Sky Sports in NFL coming up a little 702 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,840 Speaker 1: bit earlier next week. We have one social media question 703 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: today and we've gone over this topic, but let's get 704 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,479 Speaker 1: the question. There's this gentleman was nice enough to send 705 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: the question in so at Rich Edwin E. D w 706 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: N Who, in your opinion is the best tight end 707 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: and safety prospect for our Jags. We've gone through this 708 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 1: a few times, Okay, So best tight end prospects I 709 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: will say two guys. I would think Pat Freremouth from 710 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 1: Penn State because he's a traditional classic tight end. How 711 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: tall are you, Bucky? Is he? He's not Kyle Pitts tall? 712 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: Is he? No? I think he's like six four. It's 713 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: I think I think that's where he kind of comes in. 714 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,240 Speaker 1: And then Hunter Long from Boston College would be the second. 715 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: Because what the Jags need. I think they still need 716 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 1: a classic y like I I know, take Tyler Eifford 717 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: out of the mix, like he's there, but he's not there. 718 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: Like I need a traditional Y tight end, like a 719 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: guy that can play and be an every down guy 720 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: attached to hip with the tackle, put his hand in 721 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,720 Speaker 1: the dirt. Run, rouse and do those things. And in fact, 722 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: if they were daring to feel the position, I would 723 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: like to see him double down at the position, get 724 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,319 Speaker 1: one to come back and get another one. I think 725 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: firemouth makes sense. What I wonder about is do you 726 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: have to go get him at five? And if you 727 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: go get him at five, are you overdrafting him when 728 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,399 Speaker 1: you could get one of the other guys? Is that 729 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: value worth it? Is he that much better than who 730 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 1: you could get in the third round for what else 731 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: you might get? And that's my only concern with it. 732 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: But but I mean, I think that's a question you're 733 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 1: asking about a bunch of guys, so is he that 734 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: much better? But I also think that that's an issue 735 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 1: that teams run into it. Tighten and a lot we're 736 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: talking to this podcast. Tight Ends fascinating to him. Every 737 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: team needs them, and yet on draft day it seems 738 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: like teams start talking themselves out of how much they 739 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,280 Speaker 1: need them because they're hard to find and because they're risky, 740 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: and because they're not perfect coming out there's always flaws 741 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: in them. So I guess I kind of agree with Bucky. 742 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: I think the approach maybe somewhere in these top seven 743 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: guys that you've got. You've got five in the top 744 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: sixty five and a couple more. Maybe you do have 745 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: to take two to get what you need and hope 746 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: that one of them works out because this team has 747 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: been so deficient at that spot for so long. And 748 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: I get the Urban and trent on thinking about the 749 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 1: long term deficiencies, but you've got to get that spot 750 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: field in this day and age. So you know, you know, 751 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: I'm talking abound myself a little bit because it's such 752 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: a difficult position. And maybe you pass on Fireman and 753 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: then take a combination of Brevin Jordan's Hunter Long somewhere 754 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: down there and get a combination that would work at 755 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 1: that spot because they gotta get it fixed. And then 756 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: the other position groups safety. You know, the Jags haven't 757 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: selected in the draft a true free safety since James 758 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: Sample that didn't work out. So sweet spot here, I mean, 759 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: they're there are a bunch of sages, and really, I 760 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: mean it's it's like going to the ice cream shop 761 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: and kind of figuring out what what is your flavor? 762 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 1: What do you like? Um, we've talked about Trevor Morray 763 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:57,479 Speaker 1: for forever. Javon Holland from Oregon is another playmaker ball hawk. 764 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: But then there are a ton of guys that have 765 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: impact potential, but they have to be played a certain way. 766 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: So you have Andre Cisco from Syracuse who was intriguing 767 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: because he's a ball He had thirteen interceptions in two years. Like, 768 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 1: he just gets his hands on the football. So do 769 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,919 Speaker 1: you want a playmaker that's back there, because he could 770 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 1: be that guy. Kaden Stern is a great athlete who 771 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: had an outstanding freshman year, hasn't played to that level. 772 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: But you talked about a highway speed sideline, the sideline 773 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: playmaker who was a really valued recruit when he went 774 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 1: to Texas, And so a lot of it depends on 775 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 1: how they decide to play, and without seeing them or 776 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: even hearing them talk about their style of playing the 777 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 1: back end, it's really hard to predict what they want 778 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 1: in which direction they'll go. Yeah, I think safety about 779 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: this on the podcast. I almost think the NFL game 780 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: and the rules have evolved to the point where it's 781 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 1: impossible or very close to impossible to find a great 782 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: safety along the lines of where people thought of it 783 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 1: years ago. Meaning if you really think you're gonna find 784 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: somebody who can hit who can play it at a 785 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 1: high level, be incredibly dynamic and cover you know, good luck, 786 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 1: because you're trying to find a cornerback in the linebacker's body. 787 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,280 Speaker 1: It's almost the same thing as the tight end position, 788 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: where you've almost got to find Okay, I've got a 789 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 1: guy who can do this and a guy who can 790 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 1: do this. But if I think I'm gonna find a 791 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: guy who can do both at a high level, they 792 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:24,959 Speaker 1: maybe once every seven or eight years that you're gonna 793 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 1: find that guy who can do it all. Kellen Winslow 794 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: is not walking through that door. Maybe Ronnie Lott in 795 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: his prime is not walking through that door anymore because 796 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: the game has changed where you can't expect that out 797 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: of that guy. So, you know, Mary, obviously I think 798 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: is the big time talent out of the class. Once 799 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,359 Speaker 1: you get beyond that, I think you're trying to find 800 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: a guy who can fill a specific role and not 801 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: be and it will be every down, but they're not 802 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: going to be the dynamic superstar that I think fans 803 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: are thinking of at that spot. You have a thanks 804 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: for the social media question this week, and that will 805 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: wrap it up for the Huddle Up podcast. This week, 806 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 1: we are one week away, over a week from the 807 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 1: NFL Draft.

I'm doing uh coast in the coverage on 812 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,240 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, UH doing the Draft live Jake Lazer, myself, 813 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: Kevin Brookhart or whatever, so I get a chance to 814 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 1: talk about it or whatever, and then hopefully we'll connect 815 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 1: and we'll do some some post draft pods and all 816 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: of that other stuff. So right now, it's just getting 817 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: ready for the big day. That's just kind of kind 818 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: of like a mini super Bowl for us. John, that 819 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: was some big league name dropping right there by Bucky, 820 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:38,360 Speaker 1: I must say there was a name.
