00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 1: and that's the talk online and on social media is

18
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: that maybe the Jags could be in consideration. We'll go

19
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: around the National Football League as well, and we'll hear

20

00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: into la Visca Chenault, his former wide receiver slash offensive

00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,279
Speaker 1: great job as the anchor leg of the show bringing

00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna you're gonna get on base for us. We're

34
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: gonna get your over and get you in. How about that? Now?

35
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: It's good. And I know there's there's plenty to talk about,

36
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: but the draft having just been completed, and and also

37
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: many underrafted rookies agree to terms with the Jaguar, So yeah,

38
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be there's gonna be a lot of new

39
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 1: faces that are gonna be wearing teal and black when

40
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: in camp eventually opened. I hope you know that's a lot.

41
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: That's thirty rookies, eighteen signees after the draft, twelve draft picks,

42
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: and then who knows in free agency. There's a couple

43
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: of churning spots as this goes on here, before we

44
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: get to the draft and the new guys and all that,

45
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: Let's start off with a big name of the day

46
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: around the NFL. And it's Andy Dalton, who was cut

47
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 1: by the Cincinnati Bengals, and it's on social media. Everybody's

48
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: like a lot of people are, hey, the Jaggs could

49
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: be in consideration. Would you dare Jeff signing Andy Dalton? Yeah,

50
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean I would. I mean for a couple of reasons. One,

51
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: he has been a uh, a decent starter in the

52
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: National Football League. He's familiar with your offensive coordinator Gruden

53
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: and uh and he needs a job. And to be

54
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: perfectly honest with you, I don't think the Jaguars backup

55
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: quarterback situation. This is assuming obviously that Minshu is your starter.

56
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: I don't. I think that dobbs Is is a highly

57
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 1: uh you know, bought a backup quarterback in the National

58
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: Football league. In fact, there are some reports last year

59
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: when Dobbs was in practice that it wasn't very good.

60
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: So you know, yeah, I mean, I'm I'm all for

61
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: the Jaguars going it now. If you asked me this

62
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: a week ago, I would have said, no, go out

63
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: and draft you one, because I thought that there was

64
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: an opportunity to do that early on this draft, and

65
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: the Jaguars decided not to do that. And I do

66
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: understand that the Jaguars ended up getting a quarterback late

67
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: in the draft, but they expect him to be a

68
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: backup quarterback at some point for the Jaguars this year.

69
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: For Jake Luton. Is that pronounced correctly, Yeah, Jake Luton Luton?

70
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: You know? So yeah, I expect him to be more

71
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: of a developmental type product project anyway, So yeah, I ain't.

72
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: Dalton should absolutely be on the Jars radar. You got

73
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: to get through a couple of things before that happened.

74
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 1: Number one, Andy Dalton has to realize that there's not

75
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: another starting opportunity in this league. Number one. And he's

76
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: also got to realize that the money is not gonna

77
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: be at seventeen eighteen million a year, you know, so, uh,

78
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: he's got to realize he's gonna be a backup. And

79
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: number two, he's got to realize that the pay is

80
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 1: not gonna be what it would have been if he

81
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: had remained under contract with the Cincinnati Bengal. We'll see

82
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: what happens to Dave Coldwell has up his sleeve with

83
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 1: the next couple of days. With that, now that's all

84
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: said and done, let's go to the results of the

85
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: NFL Draft. Let's start in the first round. Two picks

86
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: in the first round, ninth overall, twenty overall. Uh C J.

87
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: Henderson is the pick at nine, the corner from Florida

88
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: and defensive end line backer Caleb and chased on from

89
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 1: l S. You two defensive players early, and now you

90
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: have the ability on defense to have potential playmaking types

91
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: at every level of the defense. Locks. Oh, you hope,

92
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: you know. And and I really like Jason. I think

93
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: he's got a great motor and uh, you know, good

94
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: for him to have the year that he had last year,

95
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: which was a good, really good year. I don't want

96
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: to say that a great year, but a really good

97
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: year coming off of a knee that's impressive. Love his motor,

98
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: love his intensity, He plays hard, he's got some some

99
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: pass rush ability, and with the situation within got Way

100
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 1: kind of unknown and what's going to happen with that,

101
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: that makes that a position of need. So I think

102
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: it's a good fit. Uh supposedly a high character guy,

103
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: he's got some real nice hips. He can bend it

104
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: around the edge, and you don't if the Jaguars end

105
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: up having issues within Gothway or if he's even back

106
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: in the fold now, Jason gives him I think, an

107
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: opportunity to be really flexible as a defense to where

108
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: they can play therefore three principles, but then also what

109
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: they really wanted to do last year but with the

110
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: hold out of a Gookway they didn't end up doing it,

111
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: is to get some of the three four principles on

112
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: the field and make it more prevalent. Because we saw

113
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: a little pieces of it last year as a defense,

114
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: but we never really saw it to where it became

115
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: a bulk of a game plan. And I think if

116
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: you have time to prepare, which now we're looking at

117
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: no all season stuff, you know, but if you can

118
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: get into camp and have a camp to where you

119
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: can prepare for that flexibility, I sure would be nice

120
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: and create a lot of headaches for offensive coordinators. Loves

121
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: the nuances of the differences of four three, three four.

122
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: It can be I mean, obviously a linebacker would maybe

123
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: come up on the ball, but it's really the spacing

124
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: upfront has a lot to do with it too. It's

125
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: not just hate JP, to be honest with you, Sometimes

126
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: when I watched someone sitting there, going is this the

127
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: three four or is this a four or three? Because

128
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: so many principles where the three four are used in

129
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: a four three and vice versa. So, uh, there's not

130
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: a lot of difference, but uh, it just makes it

131
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: a little bit more unpredictable, you know, the where you

132
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: I think your blitz package has become a little bit

133
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: more varied when you're running a three four and you

134
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: have that personnel on the field where you've got some

135
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: guys that can cover, uh that also can rush or cover.

136
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think I think it's nice to have

137
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: that flexibility. And I like to pick U C. J.

138
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: Henderson of what I would like to be able to

139
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: get a little bit farther down in the first round

140
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: to get him. Yeah, but I mean I probably say

141
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: that about every guy, and he's fast uh, you know,

142
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: so I'm looking forward to seeing him in person. When

143
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: I watched the film, I will tell you I didn't

144
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: see a whole lot of difference between him, and I

145
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: said this before the draft, I didn't see a whole

146
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: lot of difference between him and the quarterback from Ohio

147
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: State name escaped me Kuda, you know, and people had Okuda.

148
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: It's like a top five and I'm going, well, and

149
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: my my saying this, I'm not saying that that Okuda

150
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: should have been where he is and that Henderson should

151
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: have been higher. I think Occuda should have been down

152
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: a little bit because I didn't think there was a

153
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: that big of a difference between Okuda and Henderson. So

154
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: I'm I'm glad that the Jaguars got one of the

155
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: top two corners. That was pretty much the consensus of

156
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: all the different personnel people around because it's obviously it's

157
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: a huge position of need for the Jaguars, and uh boy,

158
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: you've you've had a couple of big subtractions, so adding

159
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: a little bit to that equation certainly helps. Jeff logging

160
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 1: with this Jaguars analyst on Jaguars Happy Hour on this

161
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon, the final day of April. Let's go on

162
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: to the second round. Leavisco should at junior wide receiver

163
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: from Colorado, and he was injured a couple of years ago.

164
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: And you heard Dave called well after the draft say,

165
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: you know, if this was a year ago, and you know,

166
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: he might be a first round consideration, high first round,

167
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: one of the top, if not the top receiver coming out. Um.

168
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: The question now is can he get back to that form?

169
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: And the Jaguars took his second round pick on him,

170
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: so they feel like he can. And it's not just

171
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 1: a wide receiver here logs. I caught up with Mel

172
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 1: tuckler Mel Tucker earlier today. We'll hear that interview coming

173
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: up early next week. But the way you can move

174
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: him around, play him left, play him right, play him

175
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: in the slot, line him up in the backfield. That

176
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: was what Colorado did and it worked out pretty well.

177
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: That's a good weapon to have on offense. Well, he's

178
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: tough as nails. You know that. That's what I like.

179
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: And yeah, one of the I think the themes of

180
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: this draft for the Jaguars as a whole, I think

181
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: character mattered. I think in in past here sometimes it

182
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: might have been pushed the side at times for certain

183
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: guys where there was you know, you could see maybe

184
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: great value in a guy, but I think characters at

185
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: a premium. And I think that this is also one

186
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: of the Biscus strengths is that he's a hier guy.

187
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you had a chance to read the

188
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: letter that he wrote to the general managers around the

189
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: National Football League, and when a player does essentially it

190
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: was a letter that he wrote and talked about the

191
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: injuries that he fought through, talked about where he came from,

192
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: talked about his upbringing, talked about his parents, the death

193
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: of his father. I mean, there were all these different

194
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: things that he wrote in this letter to the NFL

195
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: general managers and you sit there and you read it

196
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 1: and you go wow. I mean, what a powerful thing

197
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: to have done. And I think it really good. It

198
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: shows I thought it showed great courage to be able

199
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: to do something like that, but also showed that he's

200
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: an accountable person and that's the type of players that

201
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: you want to have on your football team. And he's

202
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: a physical presence Jap. I mean, he's big, you know,

203
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: he's a wide receiver. It's a done there. Two hundred

204
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: and thirty pounds and he's physical. You know, He's not

205
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: one of these wide receivers that once he catches it

206
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: like Marvin Harrison or Reggie Wayne used to when we

207
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: saw with the Indian that was called the many times

208
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 1: that he that he's gonna look for a place to

209
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: go down. I mean, holy cow, he's different now. He

210
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: likes to bang and he likes to finish plays. So, uh,

211
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: from from that standpoint as a defensive player, I like

212
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: those kind of guys. Lo As you mentioned the character

213
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 1: aspect of this thing, and that's been a storyline at

214
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: the end of the draft that basically all the guys picked,

215
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: twelve of them have clean backgrounds, are great off the

216
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: field according to their former coaches and teammates and everything.

217
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: How quickly and two questions here, I guess we logs

218
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: how much did this Jaguars locker room need that kind

219
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: of influx of character guys? And how quickly can you

220
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: change a locker room in the NFL? You can change

221
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: it quick now, I mean just cut a few guys,

222
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: trade a few guys, uh, you know, and then you

223
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: bring in higher character type of guys. But I mean,

224
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: holy cow, you go back j T to the So

225
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: some of the incidents that this team had, you know,

226
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 1: in twenty from off the field stuff to some of

227
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: the stuff that was on the field, it wasn't good,

228
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: you know, and it's hard to win that way. And

229
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: and I think if you look at the most successful

230
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: team in the National Football League, the Patriot, they never

231
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: really had any of those issues. I mean there were

232
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: some issues, but I mean they didn't have any distractions

233
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:33,239
Speaker 1: during the season out of their players, whereas the Jaguars

234
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: and there seemed to be many. So I like that fact.

235
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: And yes, you can change your culture in a hurry,

236
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: and I think it has to start at the top

237
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: and then but when you bring in certain players, they

238
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: gotta have you gotta have guidelines, and then when you

239
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: bring them in here, there has to be an understanding.

240
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: And I'm sure that Doug Morone is gonna stress that out,

241
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: stress that to the highest point, because that's something that

242
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: I know that he feels very strongly about. And I

243
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: think that that was I don't want to say that

244
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: was all his doing. I think it was a little

245
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: bit of a combination of Dave called well and on

246
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: run both thinking, look, we need to do this right

247
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: and here's an opportunity for us to do it right

248
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: with all these picks that we have. Let's change the culture.

249
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: And that's what they talked about, and I think that

250
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: that's part of of of being a winner, and that's

251
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: what has to change certainly with this football team. The

252
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: culture has to change. Accountability has to come up, and

253
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 1: the character needs to be there in order for a

254
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 1: lot of those things to happen, and certainly a lot

255
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: of those things need to have happen for this team

256
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: to win. Loves last couple of minutes with you here

257
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: going through the last day's worth of picks. So that

258
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: was eight picks on Saturday, busy day at the draft

259
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: room for Dave Caldwell and the and the crew uh

260
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: picking players for this team. So I'm gonna ask you

261
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: who you know maybe you might be your favorite right

262
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: out of the gate of the later round picks, I'm

263
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: picking a couple of different guys here, quarterman, the linebacker,

264
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: I think he has a chance downhill type of linebacker. Um.

265
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: And then the the one that I guess not surprised

266
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: but kind of made you going was the tight end

267
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: from Georgia Tech, Tyler Davis, and he was a transfer

268
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: in from yukon good numbers there went to Georgia Tech

269
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: and as a grand transfer last year. And this is

270
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: an offense in transition in Atlanta, remember because they played

271
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 1: the option, the triple option for ten years and then

272
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: fire Paul Johnson left. They bring in a new coach.

273
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: The offense is trying to figure out who's playing well.

274
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: They haven't had a tight end, a true tight end

275
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: on the roster really in a decade, so he didn't

276
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: get the ball a lot. If he can figure out

277
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: if he can manage the blocking in the league and

278
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: catch the ball when it's thrown to him, those kind

279
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: of guys logs can have a lengthy career if they

280
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: can get through those early years of maturation in the NFL.

281
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: Those are my two favorites. What about you, Well, I

282
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: want to see him first, but you know, because I

283
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: haven't watched the film on the later round picks yet.

284
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: But I will say this is that typically later round

285
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: picks or later round picks for a reason, And so

286
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: I usually get excited about some of your third in

287
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: your fourth round picks because I think that's where some

288
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: guys can really surprise you and all of a sudden

289
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: go wow, how did somebody not take a flyer on

290
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: him in the first round of the second round because

291
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: he's a player. So I think the third in the

292
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: fourth round is where you find more of those guys

293
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: where you get really excited about, like the quarterback from

294
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: Michigan State, Scott you know either him also quarterman as

295
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: you mentioned, the linebacker from Miami and Daniel Thomas all Burn,

296
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: the safety. I mean, those are guys that are right

297
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: there in that sweet spot of the draft where you're

298
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: looking at third, fourth and fifth round ers where they

299
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: may end up being certainly much better prospects than where

300
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: they were drafted at or their draft status, and and

301
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: you get a little bit tired of hearing all the personnel,

302
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: all guys talk about all their draft picks and oh,

303
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: we had a first round grade at autom we were

304
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: fortunate to get him in the third round. Sometimes when

305
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: you hear that, you sit there and you go, that's

306
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: a little ridiculous. But in some cases, look, that's the

307
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: belief that they have and guys, and sometimes that plays out,

308
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: and a lot of times it doesn't play out. You

309
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: end up seeing a guy who's drafted in the second round.

310
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: We shouldn't have been drafted in the fourth round, you know,

311
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: so uh so for me, in that sweet spot of

312
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: that third fourth round, that's where you really look to

313
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: find some guys. But look at it happens, but it's

314
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: happened before to where all of a sudden, JP in

315
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: the sixth round or seventh round pick all of a

316
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: sudden turns into a really good football player. But the

317
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: percentage is just don't there. It's funny. You've never heard

318
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: a college coach say, you know, we had a decent

319
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: recruiting class, it was okay this year. You've never heard

320
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: of GM or coach say, yeah, our draft classes, yeah

321
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: they're okay. You know, they're always great, and this one

322
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: has a chance to turn it around if you can

323
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: hit on some of these guys well. And I think

324
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: the one thing that became very apparent after the draft

325
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 1: was over that this football team and the organization as

326
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: a whole has gone all in on Gardner Minshew, I mean,

327
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's the that's probably one of

328
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: the biggest headlines that has come out of this draft

329
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: for this football team. And is that the right thing?

330
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: I don't know that I don't know the answer to that.

331
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: Only the future will tell that. But there was an

332
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: opportunity there in the first round for the Jaguars to

333
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: be able to select the quarterback. Whether it been early

334
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: on at nine or sometime later on, you know, they

335
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: had a chance to do that. So uh, it definitely

336
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 1: certainly tells people that, hey, Minshew is the mania, and

337
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: we got the mania here in the in the front office,

338
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: and we got the mania. The head coach's office loves

339
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: good stuff. You are a pretty good lead off hitter.

340
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 1: I'll say, hey, I try my best, dipty, I tried

341
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: my best. In the next week, well, I've had an

342
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: opportunity to watch some of film on some of these

343
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: these uh the fourth and later of the round, and

344
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: we can go in a little bit of detail. I

345
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: might give you a name of a guy. Watch out.

346
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,399

00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: on the Jags selected Daniel Thomas safety out of Auburn

438
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 1: in the fifth round, who's a strutter for the Tigers

439
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 1: the last two years. He's out of Lee High School

440
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: in Montgomery, and that was about to commit and sign

441
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: with Minnesota. You didn't have an offer from Auburn, UH,

442
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,360
Speaker 1: fifty miles away from Lee High School. And then one

443
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: of the corner one of the safeties they had in

444
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: that um that class that they thought at Auburn decided

445
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: to go elsewhere and signed with Tennessee. So it opened

446
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: up a spot late in the recruiting process, right before

447
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: signing day, they went and saw him, offered him a scholarship,

448
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: and that was the school he wanted to go to.

449
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: So he ended up at Auburn. We'll here coach males

450
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,000

00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: you know, when we get our guys back in the

463
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: summer and getting ready to play the season. Coach, sixteen

464
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 1: players from your program have been drafted over the last

465
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 1: three years. That's the best from Auburn's from since to

466
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,640
Speaker 1: ninety one. That's a long time ago now, but part

467
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 1: of programs success. I've he was winning football games, winning

468
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: with a vision and winning the SEC and and moving

469
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: on from there. But seeing players go pro. Six Auburn

470
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: players drafted this year, that tells you a lot about

471
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 1: where your program is right now. Yeah, it really does.

472
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: We're very excited, um, you know about the guys and

473
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: the thing about it, the guys have been drafted and

474
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: very well at the next level. We had six drafted

475
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: this year. We had eight free agents, which I think

476
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a handful of those guys are gonna

477
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: have a real chance to make a team. So real

478
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: good uh time right now to be an Auburn Tiger.

479
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: A coach Gus Malson with us from the Auburn Tigers.

480
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Daniel Thomas and I was reading about

481
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,400
Speaker 1: his recruitment stories. Pretty interesting. He was a late addition

482
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 1: to that signing class and was about to go to Minnesota,

483
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: of all places, a guy from Montgomery, Alabama Lee High

484
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: School was about to go to Minneapolis instead. You bring

485
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: him in late, take us through that process, and how

486
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 1: close of a call was that? Yeah, of course he's

487
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: right down the roads we knew about him, brought him

488
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: in an official bust the last week in and you

489
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: can just kind of tell his positive energy. Got a

490
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 1: chance to to meet his family that weekend too, and

491
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: so after he left, we wanted to make this thing work,

492
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: and luckily the numbers worked out and we were able

493
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: to make that call I think about seven seven thirty

494
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 1: Wednesday morning, and uh, you know, he was overjoyed. His

495
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: mom was on the phone crying. It was a real

496
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,360
Speaker 1: special moment for him to be drafted. Now, I mean,

497
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: it's just, uh, it's just a real special deal. From

498
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: that moment when he set foot on campus in Auburn

499
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: to now, how much did he grow? Let's start off

500
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: off the field as a person. What kind of person

501
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 1: did he become in those years? And I'll tell you

502
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: what you're getting. An unbelievable leader. Uh, such a positive person,

503
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 1: a very spiritual person. I mean he'll he'll send Bible

504
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: verses out every day, you know, to the team and

505
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: the staff. He's our f C a leader. Me and

506
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: my wife, we we take guys on mission trips in

507
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 1: the spring and he went back to back years and

508
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 1: just a wonderful human being. That's gonna bring a lot

509
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: of positivity to that locker room. Gus Mason with his

510
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: head coach of the Auburn Tigers now on the field,

511
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 1: he was paired up with Jeremiah Denson at the safety

512
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: position the last couple of years. It was a good

513
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: tag team combo in the back end of your defense. There.

514
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: He was second on the team and tackles the last

515
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: two years. What kind of player will the Jaguars get

516
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: at the safety position and on special teams as well. Yeah,

517
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: I call him the heat seeking messial. I mean, he

518
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,919
Speaker 1: just has nose for the ball and um, you know,

519
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: and he's a very good tackler, a good open field tackler,

520
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: a great competitor, and uh he's experienced. I mean, you're

521
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: talking about a guy that's been a lot of big games,

522
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: understands the game, understand situations, and you just said a

523
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: special things. He's one of our better special teams player.

524
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: And he took special teams just as you know, serious

525
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 1: as he did defense. And he was one of our

526
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: special teams leaders. And uh, you know, I can't say

527
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 1: enough good things about him. He's got a chance of

528
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: playing in the league a long long time. What was

529
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: the best moment that you remember from him on the field.

530
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: Is it that Iron Bowl his first time out a

531
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: couple of picks again hurts Or is there something later

532
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: in his career that stands up for you. I tell

533
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 1: you what you just I mean, you just said it,

534
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 1: like start out as a true freshman in the Iron

535
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: Bowl on the road two interceptions. Uh. And he grew

536
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: up in the state and he understands how big that is.

537
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: And that really just laid the groundwork for him from

538
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 1: a confidence standpoint that hey, not only can I play

539
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: in this league, but I can play very high level.

540
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: And then after that, really the the next three years,

541
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: it was just like he turned into one of our leaders,

542
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 1: a guy that you can count on. Uh, that has

543
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: so much character. Uh. He loves practice and he loves

544
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 1: the game of football. I mean and uh, like I said,

545
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: I can't say enough good things coach mal Is it

546
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: is it the leadership part of his the way he

547
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: goes around and does his business. Is it more of

548
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: a vocal leadership? Is it by example a mixture? What's

549
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: that personality? Like? Well, really it's by example, uh, first

550
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: of all, but this year, being a senior, he was

551
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: on my leadership committee Uh, and then he started to

552
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: become more vocal. And he's the type you know, he's

553
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: not gonna say a whole lot, but when he does,

554
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: everybody listened. And I have so much respect for him

555
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: as a person as a player. Uh, you know everyone

556
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: is rooting for Daniel Thomas coach. A couple more minutes

557
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: with you here, and I've got to ask you while

558
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: we have you on here about a couple of other

559
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: SCC players that the Jaguars drafted on the defensive side

560
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: of the football. You're, of course noted for your offensive prowess.

561
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 1: There's the head coach of the Auburn Tigers. So let's

562
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 1: start with C. J. Henderson. You saw Florida last year.

563
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: I think he had three passes defense in that game.

564
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,719
Speaker 1: The cornerback out of Florida. What kind of corner and

565
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,479
Speaker 1: how how did you have to adjust when you when

566
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: you saw him on the outside. Yeah, he was a

567
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: guy that we definitely game played around and tried to

568
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: be very smart because we knew he had big play

569
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: of belvy. He just felt such a confident player and

570
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: so you know that was a big, big factor. We're

571
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,239
Speaker 1: trying to game playing around him. And there was one

572
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: one of the defensive linemen that uh that really were

573
00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 1: the two keys we felt like and being six ups,

574
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: but but a dynamic player. Caleb and chased on the

575
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: other Jaguars first round pick. As we sit here and

576
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: talk today, the guy is twenty years old and he's

577
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: a first round pick in the NFL. He'll be twenty one.

578
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: So now there's a lot of tread left on the

579
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: tires there for the Jaguars at least. But what kind

580
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: of impact did him make the last couple of years

581
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: in the SEC. You know, we were always concerned about

582
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: him rushing the pastor. Uh, you know, he's long, he's fast. Um,

583
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: you know, we're very explosive and this Pastor he got

584
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: a lot better against the run. So you're talking about

585
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: a really really good player that has a lot of upside.

586
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: Like I said, he's scared when you go against him,

587
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: you know, Russian the Pastor. And finally, Dontevis Russell is

588
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 1: here with the Jaguars as well, a draft pick late

589
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: last year. I gotta get him on the field a

590
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: little bit, but he's working his way up and we're

591
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: glad to have him around here for sure. Yeah, Dontaners

592
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: is one of all time favorites. So you're talking about

593
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: a guy that's just so steady, but he played really

594
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: good for us. He's one of the guys it's just steady, consistent.

595
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: It gets overlooked. I think I think he was a

596
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: lot better than the attention that he got while he

597
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: was here, and probably even with you guys too. But

598
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: very good football player, very steady consistent. Um, you know,

599
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: so I can't say enough good things about Dontegas. There's

600
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: Gus Melson, head coach at the Auburn Tigers. The full

Speaker 1: NFL Draft, and maybe some of this Dalton business as well.

687
00:35:55,280 --> 00:36:01,400
Speaker 1: feat John Ocean, what was your last Mellow mushroom experience? Um, no,

688
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: it was been a while. I think Uh, White and

689
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: Son went there for some pick up a few weeks back.

690
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe right at the start of the pandemic, but uh,

691
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: I didn't miss it. We're downtown in Springfield now and

692
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 1: uh you know, uh the Avondale the routine stopped now, yeah,

693
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 1: that's yeah, that's where I was last night, curbside pick up.

694
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: Easiest could be the car barely stopped and then they

695
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: came out and threw the pizza in the car and

696
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: just kept on going. It's sure they appreciated that. And

697
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: I dove out of the way as you ran by,

698
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 1: It's right, And then I hustled, hustled back to to

699
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 1: scarf it down. John, What are you making this? Andy

700
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: Dalton buzz on social media. I guess we kind of

701
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: saw this coming when he was cut. But do you

702
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: think you know, log seems to think that it wouldn't

703
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 1: be a bad idea depending on the price. Yeah, it's

704
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,280
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. I mean, it's uh and ticularly

705
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: makes sense, not necessarily because the iford can extent so much,

706
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 1: but you know, clearly, Jake Gruden to spend time with Dalton.

707
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 1: It's probably a comfort level there. Uh, And I sent

708
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: throughout the IF the off season, we talked about it.

709
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: They have hope in Minshew and they have reason to hope.

710
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: But you know, as much as I like and as

711
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: much as I hope too, there were long stretches last

712
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: year where Minshew really struggled and even in some of

713
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: the winds, you know, there were long periods of half

714
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: that if if that would happen again, which I don't

715
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,959
Speaker 1: think it will, but if it would, do you want

716
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: your backups to be dobbed and a rookie and I

717
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: think it still feels like they would like there to

718
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: be some alternatives there, and uh, you know, to me,

719
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 1: Dalton for that reason makes sense. I don't know if

720
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: they need to go after other guys because they assume

721
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: that Dalton would come available this way. That seems like

722
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of a reach because you can't always

723
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: assume things like that. I don't know they would have

724
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 1: precluded from going after somebody else, but I can't help

725
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: but think that get the relationship with Gruden wouldn't help

726
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: on that front. I guess the other part of it

727
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,840
Speaker 1: as a cost like, what's what's he really expecting that

728
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: the market can't be crazy for him. Now, you wouldn't

729
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: think based on what Winston got in in New Orleans. Um,

730
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: I mean you know, and uh, but you never know

731
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: how that plays out. You know, you wouldn't have necessarily

732
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 1: thought the Jaguars would have they a would get a

733
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 1: fourth for Fold when other teams couldn't get anything for

734
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: New you know, so the quarterback market sometimes doesn't play

735
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: by the same rules as the rest of the market

736
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 1: because it's quarterback. But if you get him for reasonable um,

737
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: you know, no matter what people might think and say,

738
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: And this is not a rebuild, this is not a

739
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 1: tank for Trevor. There's none of that is reality to

740
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 1: people making decisions for this team. So if they think

741
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: that Dalton is a guy who can give them a

742
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 1: good chance, and if they want to and they think

743
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: he's the right fit, then absolutely I think it makes sense. Yeah,

744
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 1: the the whole tanking argument is ridiculous. I mean, you

745
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 1: don't tank because you get fired this year. If you

746
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 1: tank well and even you know, to me looks no

747
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 1: further than Miami last year to know that it it's ridiculous.

748
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: This is a team that. I mean, everybody in the

749
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 1: media who was close to that team was sure that

750
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 1: they were tanking. And it almost felt when you read

751
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: the report, and I know some of the reporters down

752
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: there have done in a long time, it felt like

753
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: they were hearing it from the inside. They were so confident.

754
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: You know, there's a different kind of reporting when you're

755
00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: hearing the stores. Well, guess what, once floor has got there,

756
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: And once those players started playing, they didn't want to

757
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: lose sixteen games? So why try when it's out of

758
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: your control? Are you gonna try to lose sixteen? What

759
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: a another team loses sixteen? So I just think it's uh,

760
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 1: especially with this roster right now. JP. If you look

761
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 1: at the roster on the Jaguars, you've got Minshoe and

762
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:30,799
Speaker 1: three really good young players Taylor uh Shark and uh

763
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: I'm Jonah and Josh Allen, plus Miles Jack plus now

764
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: five or six rookies who you think you're gonna make

765
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: huge impact and Brandon Linder and Norma. This is not

766
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: the two thousand and thirteen Jaguars where when I looked

767
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 1: at me, I thought, boy, where did they compete? Every

768
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: every roster spot has either a good player or a

769
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 1: potentially very good player prime pick. I just don't I

770
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 1: don't see the tanking thing beyond the fact they traded

771
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: some veterans who I think most of those veterans, people

772
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 1: who know football don't think they were close to being

773
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 1: in their prime anyway. So I don't know that they're

774
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 1: worse than last year. I just don't think they are.

775
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 1: It is a lot of youth coming in though, John

776
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: Osan with US Jaguars dot Com senior writer here on

777
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,439
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour on this Thursday afternoon. But yeah, twelve

778
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 1: draft picks, eighteen undrafted rookie free agents signed, So that's

779
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 1: dirty rookies on the roster right now for this football team. Now,

780
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,439
Speaker 1: there's a lot of youth, and as we know, John,

781
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: a lot of times a lot of youth means a

782
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 1: lot of els. But as you said, there there are

783
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,800
Speaker 1: some some of the early round draft picks especially, that

784
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,839
Speaker 1: are going to be expected to jump in and make

785
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 1: an impact. Whether they do or not, that's you know,

786
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: we'll see. But that's where they are right now. It's

787
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 1: a young, gonna be a young football team. Outside of

788
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 1: even this draft class and this rookie class, I mean,

789
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 1: there's still impact players that are very young on this team.

790
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 1: Oh when I say, I don't grasp the tanking thing,

791
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,880
Speaker 1: and I don't grasp why people think this team is

792
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: gonna go what one and fifteen? I'm not saying they're

793
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: a double digit win team yet. I just think there

794
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: is a place between two and fourteen and ten and

795
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: six that this team has a chance to settle. It

796
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: was six and ten last year. I think the run

797
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: defense is much better than it was last year, and

798
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 1: that to me was where everything split off the table

799
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 1: last year. Beyond that, they were a relatively competitive team.

800
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: So does in talking to him clearly like the idea,

801
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: and he's hit on this team. He's hit on this

802
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: team every time he talked publicly. He's excited about having

803
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys who were all pulling in the

804
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: same direction without a lot of outside stuff. And there

805
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: might be, you know, to say what you want about

806
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 1: Jan and Leonard and all the trade stuff. Might be

807
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: a few guys who have some lingering issues, But overall,

808
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: I think you would agree jp this locker room next year,

809
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: it if and when we're walking into it is going

810
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 1: to feel like it's pulling in a new direction. And

811
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 1: I don't know how you. I don't know what Pandel

812
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 1: we can say about that, but it feels like it's

813
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's one tailor, d J. Chart Gardner, Minshew's team

814
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be pulling in their direction. And I

815
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:32,439
Speaker 1: think the organization is excited about that. Uh. We talked

816
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,240
Speaker 1: a lot over the weekend on Zoom JP. It feels

817
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: like this draft is going to be looked back on

818
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: as a see change, new direction draft. We'll see if

819
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 1: the players can live up to that. John Osan with

820
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 1: the Jaguars dot Com senior writer here on Jaguars Happy.

821
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 1: Our last couple of minutes with you here, John, So,

822
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you of the twelve draft picks, what

823
00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:00,800
Speaker 1: was the Jaguar's best selection, maybe the best value, the

824
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 1: one that made the most sense, and then what was

825
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 1: a pick that made you go hmm? And then how

826
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,919
Speaker 1: do they get how do they prove that's the right call?

827
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,400
Speaker 1: You know? I think C. J. Henderson has been overlooked

828
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 1: a little bit, maybe because he's a quiet guy, is

829
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,320
Speaker 1: not as fun to talk to as I chased on

830
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 1: or our quarterman. But he'd satter be your best selection.

831
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: And this is a guy who's job. It is very quickly.

832
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: You know, most secondaries in the NFL aren't as loaded

833
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 1: as the Jaguars were in two thousand seventy. Teams they've

834
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 1: usually got one premier guy who can take away a

835
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,280
Speaker 1: side of the field. Let the other guys double there, guys, etcetera.

836
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:50,400
Speaker 1: Very quickly. He needs to be He was only taking

837
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: four spots below Jail. You know, this is not like

838
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: this is a low first round draft pick when you're yeah,

839
00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 1: when you're picked in the top ten at a corner

840
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: that's relatively rare. So you know, I think he has

841
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 1: the trade. They love this guy and it's become vogue

842
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: in the last three or four days. Talked about the

843
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 1: rest of the draft class. But I think he's the

844
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 1: guy that will certainly be watching more than any because

845
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 1: he's the guy who has to come through. I don't

846
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,359
Speaker 1: know if there was a pick that surprised me as

847
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 1: much as in fact they didn't go running back at

848
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:27,760
Speaker 1: some point um, I thought, even beyond the Leonard Fournette stuff,

849
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 1: whatever happens there, it felt to me before the draft

850
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 1: like they needed that change of hate um at a

851
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: missability guy, whatever that means. It felt like that was

852
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: going to be a pick, and apparently they feel good

853
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 1: about Armstead, they feel good about Leonard Fournett's ability to

854
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 1: do that. Um, you wonder if free agent released during

855
00:45:56,440 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 1: training camp, guy in running back, which often happens, could

856
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: be a guy like that for a year. But I

857
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 1: was a little surprised fourth round didn't include that. I

858
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: was very vocal for the draft that I thought. I

859
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 1: thought that's where they would address that, and they didn't.

860
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot Com senior writer John Osan So the drafts

861
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: over the off season program has got that right. The

862

867
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 1: same thing, trying to reach out to as many college coaches,

868
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: Jaguars assistant trying to get a feel for this draft class.

869
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 1: I we're starting what we call the ozone podcast, and

870
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:54,759
Speaker 1: we talked to who try to go yeah, try to

871
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: go a little deeper, you know, some in depth type

872
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 1: stuff interviews, which I like to do. Any have you

873
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 1: told anybody about this yet. I don't think this is public. Yeah,

874
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,880
Speaker 1: this is breaking news. Uh yeah, we've talked about it

875
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,320
Speaker 1: amongst ourselves, but not publicly. Not but not on a

876
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 1: radio show. That's true. True. So we'll be trying to

880
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 1: it's always good to talk to Mike anyway. He's he's

881
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: a good NFL guy. So we'll we'll try that and

882
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,080

00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 1: Auburn head coach Gusts Milson we called up over and

980
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,839
Speaker 1: zoom yesterday. The full conversation available on Jaguars dot com.

981
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 1: Got to visit with coach mals On and discuss Daniel

982
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 1: Thomas and much more about the Auburn Tigers program that's

983
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 1: going well. You heard in that interview that they've had

984
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: over the last three draft classes sixteen players drafted. That's

985
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,360
Speaker 1: the second most in a three year period for Auburn

986
00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 1: since nineteen eighty nine to ninety one, when they had

987
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 1: twenty and that span that's a long time ago. So

988
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 1: things are going well. That's part of program health, let's say,

989
00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:23,879
Speaker 1: and in college football is how many players are putting out.

990
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,399
Speaker 1: And of course, when you put that many players out,

991
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 1: you've got to have some players to come in and

992
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,880
Speaker 1: play behind them. That's the next step. And that's the

993
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 1: challenge for programs that are successful and sending guys out

994
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: to the National Football League, how can they fill those

995
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,360
Speaker 1: spots and move on and move forward. And it always

996
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 1: kind of feels like coach Mazan has a little bit

997
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,759
Speaker 1: of a hot seat at Auburn, which a lot of

998
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 1: times it is a hot seat, but he's maintained and

999
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:52,839
Speaker 1: they've won a lot of football games in his time

1000
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: at Auburn, and Daniel Thomas was a big part of

1001
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 1: that the last couple of years. He's now Jacksonville Jaguar.

1002
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 1: We caught up today and that's not out yet. You'll

1003
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 1: hear the full interview next week on Jaguars dot com.

1004
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 1: Melt Tucker is now the head coach at Michigan State.

1005
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:09,880
Speaker 1: Last year he was the head coach at Colorado, the

1006
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 1: Buffaloes head coach. He's a former Jaguars defensive coordinator of

1007
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 1: course from two thousand nine toe then he went on

1008
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:18,400
Speaker 1: to the Bears for a couple of years as the

1009
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,880
Speaker 1: d C. Was at Alabama for a year as the

1010
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,040
Speaker 1: defensive backs coach, and it was the freshman year for

1011
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: Ronnie Harrison, by the way, and you'll you'll hear that

1012
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,360
Speaker 1: conversation on Monday as well. And then it was on

1013
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 1: to Georgia for some successful years of the Bulldogs as

1014
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator, and then on to Colorado as the

1015
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:40,359
Speaker 1: head coach last year. That means Lavisca Chennault was under

1016
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:46,600
Speaker 1: his head coaching staff last year and they used him

1017
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 1: a lot of different ways on the field. With the

1018
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 1: question I had for him was what is Labisca like

1019
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:53,439
Speaker 1: off the field? He's a he's a really quiet guy

1020
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 1: and uh it really until he gets to know you.

1021
00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: Um and uh So when I first got to votor

1022
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 1: he was, you know, very shy and uh and so

1023
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 1: it was a kind of a process of him opening up,

1024
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:07,520
Speaker 1: you know, once he got to know me and the

1025
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,719
Speaker 1: staff and uh but once he kind of got used

1026
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 1: to us and kind of found out what we were

1027
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,840
Speaker 1: all about, and he's great, you know, and he's, like

1028
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,399
Speaker 1: I said, he's a fun guy. He's always got smile

1029
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:20,439
Speaker 1: on his face. He loves his team as he loves

1030
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:24,080
Speaker 1: his coaches. He competes, he practices hard um, you know,

1031
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,719
Speaker 1: but for people you know initially that he's not familiar with,

1032
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna be he's gonna be quiet's gonna be reserved.

1033
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 1: He's got the he's got the braids. You know, they'll

1034
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,839
Speaker 1: be covering his face every now and then. But he'll

1035
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:38,320
Speaker 1: he'll he'll come out of it eventually. And uh and

1036
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 1: you guys will work well together and we'll see what

1037
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,360
Speaker 1: Labisca has. The offer sounds like a lot for the

1038
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 1: Jaguars team, the second round pick out of Colorado. There

1039
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 1: thanks to Melt Tucker full visit coming up next week

1040
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,240
Speaker 1: on Jaguars dot Com. Tied to go around the National

1041
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 1: Football League and we start off in Green Bay, Wisconsin,

1042
00:55:56,400 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 1: where the Packers selected Jordan's Love last Tuesday in the

1043
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: first round. They moved up four rounds to get him.

1044
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 1: So is this the beginning of the end for Aaron

1045
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 1: Rodgers in Green Bay? Well, Rogers has not made many

1046
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: appearances since then. He was out there socially a lot

1047
00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:16,080
Speaker 1: on social media, out and about as much as he

1048
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: can be in this time period. But he was out

1049
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: there a lot. Obviously you saw him everywhere, but that

1050
00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:23,800
Speaker 1: does not happened much. But apparently he talked to Brett Farve,

1051
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:26,120
Speaker 1: and now Brett Farve was talking to a lot of

1052
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:31,720
Speaker 1: the media folks. So Farv said that basically disrespect would

1053
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 1: be a term maybe too um describe what Rogers is feeling. Well, hey,

1054
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:40,759
Speaker 1: that's part of the NFL and and they've got to

1055
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 1: move figure out the next step of the quarterback position.

1056
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: And it may not be this year, may not be

1057
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,760
Speaker 1: the next two years, a couple of years down the line,

1058
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 1: it might be time to move on from Aaron Rodgers.

1059
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 1: And if you remember the same thing happened when Brett

1060
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 1: Farve was the quarterback there, Rogers comes in late first

1061
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 1: round it and but I had to sit on the

1062
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 1: bench for a couple of three years under far Far

1063
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:10,359
Speaker 1: notoriously did not really uh go out of his way

1064
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,320
Speaker 1: to help Aaron Rodgers in that tutor in process that

1065
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's even the right term up

1066
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: there for what happened, but uh, it moved on and

1067
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,040
Speaker 1: far Far at some point moved on. They moved on

1068
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:24,360
Speaker 1: from far But we ended up in Minnesota and and

1069
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 1: the rest is history. And then Rogers has been the

1070
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,200
Speaker 1: quarterback from that. So interesting stuff there from the Green

1071
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: Bay Packers. We heard earlier today the Bengals released Andy

1072
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: Dalton after nine seasons. Joe Burrow is a new sheriff

1073
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:40,480
Speaker 1: in town there and the Jaguars immediately were one of

1074
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,840
Speaker 1: those team names thrown around for consideration for Andy Dalton.

1075
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 1: And hearing from Jeff Logaman and John Osier in this

1076
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 1: program today, it's it makes a lot of sense with

1077
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 1: the offensive cornator j Gruden here now he was there

1078
00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: three years and Cincinnati with Dalton the first three years

1079
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 1: Dalton was there, they won a lot of football games

1080
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 1: in those times, not a lot of playoff games, not any,

1081
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: but they got there. They were in the hunt, they

1082
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:08,640
Speaker 1: were in the mix, and they had some things going

1083
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati for a little while. We'll see what Dave

1084
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 1: Caldwell has up his sleeve, if anything. Rob Gronkowski has

1085
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:19,440
Speaker 1: joined Tom Brady and Tampa Bay. But he boasted this

1086
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 1: week about having the Bucks playbook early. The only problem

1087
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: is that that was while he was still under control

1088
00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 1: of the New England Patriots. He has since said he

1089
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 1: was joking. Well, um always interesting to see what Rob

1090
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:37,959
Speaker 1: Gronkowski has to say. And this is not breaking news.

1091
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 1: It shouldn't be breaking news. It should be a well

1092
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:44,840
Speaker 1: dumb moment. More than anything, The chiefs of exercise the

1093
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 1: fifth year option on Patrick Mahomes, a quarterback the Super

1094
00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 1: Bowl champions last year in Kansas City. Patrick Mahomes is

1095
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:57,000
Speaker 1: going nowhere for a long long time. At some point

1096
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 1: they will extend him and and do all of that.

1097
00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 1: That'll do it for our program today, Jaguars Happy Hour

1098
