0:00:30.960 --> 0:00:33.159

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:38.599

0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:48.440
<v Speaker 1>up over a zoom call yesterday. It's available on the

0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:50.960
<v Speaker 1>team website. You'll hear a portion of that coming up

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>in a little while to discuss Daniel Thomas, the Jaguars

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:56.480
<v Speaker 1>safety draft pick, the fifth round draft pick this year.

0:00:56.800 --> 0:00:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Senior writer John Oshan joins us will recap the draft

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:03.680
<v Speaker 1>and get into this Andy Dalton business. He was cut

0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:06.040
<v Speaker 1>by the Bengals today and that's the talk online and

0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:08.520
<v Speaker 1>on social media is that maybe the Jags could be

0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>in consideration. We'll go around the National Football League as well,

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>and we'll hear a preview of next week's visit with

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Mel Tucker, former Jaguars defensive coordinator now the head coach

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:23.480
<v Speaker 1>at Michigan State who just got the job in February.

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:27.520
<v Speaker 1>But will delve into la Visca Chenault, his former wide

0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:32.679
<v Speaker 1>receiver slash offensive weapon type guy at Colorado last year.

0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 1>That's coming up a little bit later in the show. Today,

0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>let's go to the phone lines immediately right out of

0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:40.759
<v Speaker 1>the gate, and he he leads us off this week

0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:45.920
<v Speaker 1>is Jaguars analyst Jeff Laguma. Jeff, Good, afternoon. It's nice

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 1>to leadoff for one. Well, you've always done such a

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.279
<v Speaker 1>great job as the anchor leg of the show bringing

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:55.160
<v Speaker 1>us on home in the right way that you know what,

0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 1>we've got to move it around this week, and and

0:01:57.520 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna you're gonna get on base for us. We're

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna get your over and get you in. How about that. No,

0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:04.800
<v Speaker 1>it's good at and I know there's there's plenty to

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:07.960
<v Speaker 1>talk about, but the draft having just been completed, and

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 1>and also many underrafted rookies agree to terms with the Jaguar,

0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:16.160
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, it's gonna be there's gonna be a lot

0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:18.959
<v Speaker 1>of new faces that are gonna be wearing teal and

0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:22.760
<v Speaker 1>black when in camp eventually opened. I hope you know

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:27.360
<v Speaker 1>that's a lot that's so at thirty rookies, eighteen signees

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:30.640
<v Speaker 1>after the draft, twelve draft picks, and then who knows

0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>in free agency, and there's a couple of churning spots

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:34.799
<v Speaker 1>as this goes on here, before we get to the

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.000
<v Speaker 1>draft and the new guys and all that, Let's start

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 1>off with a big name of the day around the NFL,

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:43.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's Andy Dalton, who was cut by the Cincinnati Bengals,

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:46.520
<v Speaker 1>and it's on social media. Everybody's like a lot of

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.720
<v Speaker 1>people are, hey, the Jags could be in consideration. Would

0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you dare Jeff signing Andy Dalton? Yeah, I mean I would.

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean for a couple of reasons. One, he has

0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 1>been a uh, a decent starter in the National Football League.

0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 1>He's familiar with your offensive coordinator Gruden and uh and

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 1>he needs a job. And to be perfectly honest with you,

0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:13.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the Jaguars backup quarterback situation. This is

0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:17.480
<v Speaker 1>assuming obviously that Minshu is your starter. I don't. I

0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:22.240
<v Speaker 1>think that dobbs Is is a highly uh you know,

0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:26.160
<v Speaker 1>bought a backup quarterback in the National Football league. In fact,

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 1>there are some reports last year when Dobbs was in

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 1>practice that it wasn't very good. So you know, yeah,

0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm I'm all for the Jaguars going on out.

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 1>If you asked me this a week ago, I would

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>have said, no, go out and draft you one, because

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I thought that there was an opportunity to do that

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 1>early on this draft, and the Jaguars decided not to

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>do that. And I do understand that the Jaguars ended

0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.839
<v Speaker 1>up getting a quarterback late in the draft, but they

0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:55.160
<v Speaker 1>expect him to be a backup quarterback at some point

0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 1>for the Jaguars this year. For Jake Luton. Is that

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 1>pronounced correctly? Yeah, Jake Luton Luton? You know, so yeah,

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.040
<v Speaker 1>I expect him to be more of a developmental type

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 1>product project anyway, So yeah, I ain't. Dalton should absolutely

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.240
<v Speaker 1>be on the Ars radar. You got to get through

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of things before that happened. Number One, Andy

0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Dalton has to realize that there's not another starting opportunity

0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:22.600
<v Speaker 1>in this league. Number one. And he's also got to

0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 1>realize that the money is not gonna be at seventeen

0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.640
<v Speaker 1>eighteen million a year, you know, So, uh, he's got

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 1>to realize he's gonna be a backup. And number two,

0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:34.599
<v Speaker 1>he's got to realize that the pay is not gonna

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:38.400
<v Speaker 1>be what it would have been if he had remained

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.359
<v Speaker 1>under contract with the Cincinnati Bengal. We'll see what happens

0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:44.279
<v Speaker 1>Dave Coldwell has up his sleeve in the next couple

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.880
<v Speaker 1>of days. With that, now that's all said and done,

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 1>let's go to the results of the NFL Draft. Let's

0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:52.680
<v Speaker 1>start in the first round. Two picks in the first round,

0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:56.839
<v Speaker 1>ninth overall, twenty overall. Uh C J. Henderson is the

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.840
<v Speaker 1>pick at nine, the corner from Florida and defensive end

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:03.040
<v Speaker 1>backer Caleb and chased on from l S. You two

0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:07.599
<v Speaker 1>defensive players early, and now you have the ability on

0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:12.039
<v Speaker 1>defense to have potential playmaking types at every level of

0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.840
<v Speaker 1>the defense. Likes Oh, you hope you know. And and

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.040
<v Speaker 1>I really like Jason. I think he's got a great

0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 1>motor and uh, you know, good for him to have

0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:23.920
<v Speaker 1>the year that he had last year, which was a good,

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:25.640
<v Speaker 1>really good year. I don't want to say that a

0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 1>great year, but a really good year coming off of

0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:31.719
<v Speaker 1>a knee that's impressed of love his motor, love his intensity.

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:36.160
<v Speaker 1>He plays hard, he's got some some pass rush ability,

0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:39.640
<v Speaker 1>and with the situation within got Way kind of unknown

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 1>and what's going to happen with that, that makes that

0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 1>a position of need. So I think it's a good fit.

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Uh supposedly a high character guy, he's got some real

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:51.839
<v Speaker 1>nice hips. He can bend it around the edge, and

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, if the Jaguars end up having issues within

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:57.960
<v Speaker 1>got Way or if he's even back in the fold now,

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Chasan gives him, I think, an opportunity to be really

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.960
<v Speaker 1>flexible as a defense to where they can play there

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:06.760
<v Speaker 1>for three principles, but then also what they really wanted

0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 1>to do last year but with the hold out of

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.520
<v Speaker 1>a Gookway they didn't end up doing it, is to

0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:14.400
<v Speaker 1>get some of the three four principles on the field

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:16.799
<v Speaker 1>and make it more prevalent because we saw a little

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 1>pieces of it last year as a defense, but we

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:22.760
<v Speaker 1>never really saw it to where it became a bulk

0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 1>of a game plan. And I think if you have

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:28.159
<v Speaker 1>time to prepare, which now we're looking at no all

0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>season stuff, you know, but if you can get into

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.000
<v Speaker 1>camp and have a camp to where you can prepare

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:36.799
<v Speaker 1>for that flexibility, I sure would be nice and create

0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:40.839
<v Speaker 1>a lot of headaches for offensive coordinators. Loves the nuances

0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 1>of the differences of four three, three four. It can

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 1>be I mean, obviously a linebacker would maybe come up

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:50.120
<v Speaker 1>on the ball, but it's really the spacing upfront has

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:51.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot to do with it too. It's not just

0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:56.520
<v Speaker 1>hate JP, to be honest with you, Sometimes when I

0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:58.479
<v Speaker 1>watch the someone sitting, they're going, is this the three

0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:00.840
<v Speaker 1>four or is this a four or three? Because so

0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:04.880
<v Speaker 1>many principles where the three four are used in a

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:08.880
<v Speaker 1>four three and vice versa. So, uh, there's not a

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.120
<v Speaker 1>lot of difference, but uh, it just makes it a

0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:15.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit more unpredictable, you know. The where I think

0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>your blitz package has become a little bit more varied

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.960
<v Speaker 1>when you're running a three four and you have that

0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 1>personnel on the field where you've got some guys that

0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:27.760
<v Speaker 1>can cover, uh that also can rush or cover. So yeah,

0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:29.680
<v Speaker 1>I think I think it's nice to have that flexibility.

0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 1>And I like to pick up C. J. Henderson of

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 1>what I'd like to be able to get a little

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.080
<v Speaker 1>bit farther down in the first round to get him. Yeah,

0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.320
<v Speaker 1>but I mean you probably say that about every guy

0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:44.720
<v Speaker 1>and he's fast, Uh, you know, so I'm looking forward

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 1>to seeing him in person. When I watched this film,

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I will tell you I didn't see a whole lot

0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.559
<v Speaker 1>of difference between him, and I said this before the draft.

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.720
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see a whole lot of difference between him

0:07:54.800 --> 0:08:00.840
<v Speaker 1>and the quarterback from Ohio State, Esse Kuda, you know,

0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.480
<v Speaker 1>and the people had Okuda. It's like a top five,

0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>and I'm going, well, and my my, by saying this,

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that that Okuda should have been where

0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.160
<v Speaker 1>he is and that Henderson should have been higher. I

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 1>think Occuda should have been down a little bit because

0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think there was a that big of a

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 1>difference between Okuda and Henderson. So I'm I'm glad that

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:24.480
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars got one of the top two corners. That

0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:27.160
<v Speaker 1>was pretty much the consensus of all the different personnel

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:30.400
<v Speaker 1>people around, because it's obviously it's a huge position of

0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 1>need for the Jaguars, and uh boy, you've you've had

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:38.000
<v Speaker 1>a couple of big subtractions, so adding a little bit

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to that equation certainly helps. Jeff Loggingman, with US Jaguars analyst,

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 1>on Jaguars Happy Hour on this Thursday afternoon, the final

0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:49.679
<v Speaker 1>day of April let's go on to the second round.

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Leavisca Chanault, junior wide receiver from Colorado, and he was

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.320
<v Speaker 1>injured a couple of years ago. And you heard Dave

0:08:57.320 --> 0:08:59.079
<v Speaker 1>called well after the draft say, you know, if this

0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:02.199
<v Speaker 1>was a year ago, and you know, he might be

0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:05.120
<v Speaker 1>a first round consideration, high first round, one of the top,

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 1>if not the top receiver coming out. Um. The question

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>now is can he get back to that form? And

0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:13.520
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars took a second round pick on him, so

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.960
<v Speaker 1>they feel like he can. And it's not just a

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.880
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver here, Logs. I caught up with Mel Tuckler

0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Mel Tucker earlier today. We'll hear that interview coming up

0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:25.520
<v Speaker 1>early next week. But the way you can move him around,

0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.160
<v Speaker 1>play him left, play him right, play him in the slot,

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:30.720
<v Speaker 1>line him up in the backfield. That was what Colorado

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:32.880
<v Speaker 1>did and it worked out pretty well. That's a good

0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:36.280
<v Speaker 1>weapon to have on offense, well on as tough as nails.

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.360
<v Speaker 1>You know that. That's what I like. And you know

0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.320
<v Speaker 1>one of the I think the themes of this draft

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 1>for the Jaguars as a whole, I think character mattered.

0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 1>I think in in pass here sometimes it might have

0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:51.320
<v Speaker 1>been pushed the side at times for certain guys where

0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:53.960
<v Speaker 1>there was you know, you could see maybe great value

0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 1>in a guy, but I think characters at a premium.

0:09:56.960 --> 0:09:58.800
<v Speaker 1>And I think that this is also one of the

0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:01.959
<v Speaker 1>business strengths say is that he's a higher guy. And

0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you had a chance to read the letter

0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 1>that he wrote to the general managers around the National

0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Football League, and when a player does essentially it was

0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:12.959
<v Speaker 1>a letter that he wrote and talked about the injuries

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:15.240
<v Speaker 1>that he fought through, talked about where he came from,

0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 1>talked about his upbringing, talked about his parents, the death

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:20.960
<v Speaker 1>of his father. I mean, there were all these different

0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:22.680
<v Speaker 1>things that he wrote in this letter to the NFL

0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.959
<v Speaker 1>general managers and you sit there and you read it

0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:28.720
<v Speaker 1>and you go wow. I mean, what a powerful thing

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.319
<v Speaker 1>to have done. And I think it really good. It

0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:35.240
<v Speaker 1>shows I thought it showed great courage to be able

0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.080
<v Speaker 1>to do something like that, but also showed that he's

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:39.160
<v Speaker 1>an accountable person and that's the type of players that

0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 1>you want to have on your football team. And he's

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:44.760
<v Speaker 1>a physical presence Jap. I mean he's big, you know,

0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 1>he's a wide receiver. It's a done there, two hundred

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:49.880
<v Speaker 1>thirty pounds and he's physical. You know, He's not one

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.520
<v Speaker 1>of these wide receivers that once he catches it like

0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Marvin Harrison or Reggie Wayne used to when we saw

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>with the Indian that was called the only time that

0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:00.160
<v Speaker 1>he that he's gonna look for a place to go down. Um.

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, holy cow, he's different now. He likes to

0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 1>bang and he likes to finish plays. So from from

0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.440
<v Speaker 1>that standpoint as a defensive player, I like those kind

0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:16.520
<v Speaker 1>of guys. Love. As you mentioned, the character aspect of

0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>this thing, and that's been a storyline at the end

0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>of the draft that basically all the guys picked, twelve

0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:26.920
<v Speaker 1>of them have clean backgrounds, are great off the field

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:30.600
<v Speaker 1>according to their former coaches and teammates and everything. How

0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:34.960
<v Speaker 1>quickly and two questions here, I guess we logs how

0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:38.360
<v Speaker 1>much did this Jaguars locker room need that kind of

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.679
<v Speaker 1>influx of character guys? And how quickly can you change

0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 1>a locker room in the NFL? I mean, well, you

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.000
<v Speaker 1>can change it quick now. I mean just cut a

0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:53.680
<v Speaker 1>few guys, trade a few guys, uh, you know, and

0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:56.439
<v Speaker 1>then you bring in higher character type of guys. But

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, holy cow, you go back JT to the

0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 1>so some of the incidents that this team had, you know,

0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 1>in twenty from off the field stuff to some of

0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the stuff that was on the field, it wasn't good,

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:17.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, and it's hard to win that way. And

0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and I think if you look at the most successful

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:23.600
<v Speaker 1>team in the National Football League, the Patriot, they never

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:25.440
<v Speaker 1>really had any of those issues. I mean there were

0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:28.960
<v Speaker 1>some issues, but I mean they didn't have any distractions

0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:33.240
<v Speaker 1>during the season out of their players, whereas the Jaguars

0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and there seemed to be many. So I like that fact.

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>Then yes, you can change your culture in a hurry.

0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:43.800
<v Speaker 1>And I think it has to start at the top.

0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:46.880
<v Speaker 1>And then but when you bring in certain players, they

0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.040
<v Speaker 1>gotta have you gotta have guidelines, and then when you

0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:51.120
<v Speaker 1>bring them in here, there has to be an understanding.

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:54.480
<v Speaker 1>And I'm sure that Doug Morone is gonna stress that out,

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:58.000
<v Speaker 1>stress that to the highest point, because that's something that

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I know that he feels very strongly out And and

0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:02.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that that was I don't want to say

0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:05.680
<v Speaker 1>that was all his doing. I think it was a

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:07.880
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a combination of Dave called well and

0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:11.120
<v Speaker 1>we're both thinking, look, we need to do this right,

0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:13.960
<v Speaker 1>and here's an opportunity for us to do it right

0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:17.520
<v Speaker 1>with all these picks that we have. Let's change the culture.

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:19.600
<v Speaker 1>And that's what they talked about, and I think that

0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:23.720
<v Speaker 1>that's part of of of being a winner, and that's

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.720
<v Speaker 1>what has to change certainly with this football team. The

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:30.560
<v Speaker 1>culture has to change. Accountability has to come up, and

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.760
<v Speaker 1>the character needs to be there in order for a

0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of those things to happen. And certainly a lot

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.000
<v Speaker 1>of those things need to have happen for this team

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:41.160
<v Speaker 1>to win. Love's last couple of minutes with you here

0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:44.400
<v Speaker 1>going through the last day's worth of picks. So that

0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:47.840
<v Speaker 1>was eight picks on Saturday, busy day at the draft

0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:51.120
<v Speaker 1>room for Dave Caldwell and the and the crew uh

0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:54.200
<v Speaker 1>picking players for this team. So I'm gonna ask you

0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:57.240
<v Speaker 1>who you know maybe you might be your favorite right

0:13:57.240 --> 0:13:59.400
<v Speaker 1>out of the gate of the later round picks, I'm

0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 1>picking a couple of different guys here, quarterman, the linebacker,

0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:07.199
<v Speaker 1>I think he has a chance downhill type of linebacker. Um.

0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:11.160
<v Speaker 1>And then the the one that I guess not surprised

0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:14.160
<v Speaker 1>but kind of made you go was the tight end

0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:17.559
<v Speaker 1>from Georgia Tech, Tyler Davis, and he was a transfer

0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:20.480
<v Speaker 1>in from yukon good numbers there went to Georgia Tech

0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and as a grand transfer last year. And this is

0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:26.520
<v Speaker 1>an offense in transition in Atlanta, remember because they played

0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:29.640
<v Speaker 1>the option, the triple option for ten years and then

0:14:29.680 --> 0:14:32.440
<v Speaker 1>fire Paul Johnson left. They bring in a new coach.

0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>The offense is trying to figure out who's playing well.

0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 1>They haven't had a tight end, a true tight end

0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:38.840
<v Speaker 1>on the roster really in a decade, so he didn't

0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:41.840
<v Speaker 1>get the ball a lot. If he can figure out

0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.880
<v Speaker 1>he can manage the blocking in the league and catch

0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>the ball when it's thrown to him, those kind of

0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:49.960
<v Speaker 1>guys logs can have a lengthy career if they can

0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:53.120
<v Speaker 1>get through those early years of maturation in the NFL.

0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Those are my two favorites. What about you, Well, I

0:14:56.440 --> 0:14:59.120
<v Speaker 1>want to see him first, but you know, because I

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.400
<v Speaker 1>haven't watched the film on the later round picks yet.

0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:05.240
<v Speaker 1>But I will say this is that typically later round

0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:08.400
<v Speaker 1>picks or later round picks for a reason, And so

0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 1>I usually get excited about some of your third in

0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:15.840
<v Speaker 1>your fourth round picks because I think that's where some

0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:18.960
<v Speaker 1>guys can really surprise you and all of a sudden,

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 1>go wow, how did somebody not take a flyer on

0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:25.800
<v Speaker 1>him in the first round of the second round because

0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.480
<v Speaker 1>he's a player. So I think the third in the

0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 1>fourth round is where you find more of those guys

0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:34.560
<v Speaker 1>where you get really excited about, like the quarterback from

0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Michigan State, Scott you know either him also quarterman as

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned, the linebacker from Miami and Daniel Thomas Alburn

0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>the safety. I mean, those are guys that are right

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:47.960
<v Speaker 1>there in that sweet spot of the draft where you're

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:51.440
<v Speaker 1>looking at third, fourth and fifth rounders where they may

0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 1>end up being certainly much better prospects than where they

0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:58.080
<v Speaker 1>were drafted at or their draft status, and you get

0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:00.160
<v Speaker 1>a little bit tired of hearing all the person all

0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>guys talk about all their draft picks and boh, we

0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 1>had a first round grade at them, and we were

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:09.040
<v Speaker 1>fortunate to get him in the third round. Sometimes when

0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you hear that, you sit there and you go, that's

0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:14.360
<v Speaker 1>a little ridiculous. But in some cases, look, that's the

0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:17.000
<v Speaker 1>belief that they have and guys, and sometimes that plays out,

0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:19.680
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of times it doesn't play out. You

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 1>end up seeing a guy who's drafted in the second round.

0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:25.000
<v Speaker 1>We shouldn't have been drafted in the fourth round, you know,

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:27.680
<v Speaker 1>so uh so for me, in that sweet spot of

0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:29.800
<v Speaker 1>that third fourth round, that's where you really look to

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 1>find some guys that look at it happens, but it's

0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>happened before to where all sudden JP in the sixth

0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:36.880
<v Speaker 1>round or seventh round pick all sudden turns into a

0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:40.200
<v Speaker 1>really good football player. But the percentage is just don't there.

0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:44.120
<v Speaker 1>It's funny. You've never heard a college coach say, you know,

0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:48.200
<v Speaker 1>we had a decent recruiting class, it was okay this year.

0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:50.280
<v Speaker 1>You've never heard of GM or coach say, yeah, our

0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 1>draft classes, yeah they're okay. You know, they're always great,

0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and this one has a chance to turn it around

0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:58.880
<v Speaker 1>if you can hit on some of these guests. Well.

0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:01.760
<v Speaker 1>And I think the one thing that became very apparent

0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:04.879
<v Speaker 1>after the draft was over that this football team and

0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.879
<v Speaker 1>the organization as a whole has gone all in on

0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:11.439
<v Speaker 1>Gardner Minshew. I mean, I mean, I think that's the

0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:15.760
<v Speaker 1>that's probably one of the biggest headlines that has come

0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:18.919
<v Speaker 1>out of this draft for this football team. And is

0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:21.640
<v Speaker 1>that the right thing? I don't know that. I don't

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:23.720
<v Speaker 1>know the answer to that. Only the future will tell that.

0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:27.040
<v Speaker 1>But there was an opportunity there in the first round

0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:29.359
<v Speaker 1>for the Jaguars to be able to select a quarterback.

0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Whether it been early on at nine or sometime later on,

0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:36.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, they had a chance to do that. So

0:17:36.760 --> 0:17:39.800
<v Speaker 1>uh it definitely certainly tells people that, hey, Minshew is

0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:42.679
<v Speaker 1>the mania, and we got the mania here in the

0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:44.639
<v Speaker 1>in the front office, and we got the mania. The

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 1>head coach's office loves good stuff. You are a pretty

0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:51.360
<v Speaker 1>good lead off hit. Or I'll say, hey, I try

0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:55.320
<v Speaker 1>my best, dipty, I tried my best. In next week, Well,

0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:57.639
<v Speaker 1>I've had an opportunity to watch some of the film

0:17:57.760 --> 0:18:01.440
<v Speaker 1>on some of these these uh fourth them later of

0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:03.639
<v Speaker 1>the round and we can go in a little bit

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:07.560
<v Speaker 1>of detail. I might give you a name of a guy.

0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:11.239
<v Speaker 1>Watch out. This guy is who I'm really excited about. Oh,

0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:24.080
<v Speaker 1>chance to catch up with Auburn head coach gust Mills

0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:27.840
<v Speaker 1>on the The Jags selected Daniel Thomas safety out of

0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Auburn in the fifth round. Who's a strutter for the

0:23:31.000 --> 0:23:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Tigers the last two years. He's out of Lee High

0:23:33.400 --> 0:23:38.119
<v Speaker 1>School in Montgomery, and that was about to commits and

0:23:38.200 --> 0:23:41.120
<v Speaker 1>sign with Minnesota. You didn't have an offer from Auburn,

0:23:41.840 --> 0:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>UH fifty miles away from Lee High School. And then

0:23:46.160 --> 0:23:48.440
<v Speaker 1>one of the corner one of the safeties they had

0:23:48.440 --> 0:23:51.640
<v Speaker 1>in that um that class that they thought at Auburn

0:23:52.200 --> 0:23:55.720
<v Speaker 1>decided to go elsewhere and signed with Tennessee so it

0:23:55.800 --> 0:23:58.280
<v Speaker 1>opened up a spot late in the recruiting process, right

0:23:58.280 --> 0:24:02.040
<v Speaker 1>before signing day. They went and saw him, offered him

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:05.040
<v Speaker 1>a scholarship, and that was the school he wanted to

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:06.719
<v Speaker 1>go to. So he ended up at Auburn. We'll here

0:24:06.760 --> 0:24:10.199
<v Speaker 1>coach males On here on that recruiting process, how he

0:24:10.280 --> 0:24:13.000
<v Speaker 1>developed over the years, and what kind of player the

0:24:13.080 --> 0:24:17.080
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars getting dust mals On here on Jaguars Happy Hour.

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 1>How has this been for your football program? No spring ball,

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:22.919
<v Speaker 1>A lot of questions about the ball. How are your

0:24:22.960 --> 0:24:26.600
<v Speaker 1>staff and players getting along to this time? Yeah, obviously

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:28.960
<v Speaker 1>it's been a unique time, I think for every one.

0:24:29.000 --> 0:24:32.440
<v Speaker 1>And you know, not having spring practice, our guys all

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:34.520
<v Speaker 1>spread out. You know, probably about two weeks ago we

0:24:34.560 --> 0:24:37.240
<v Speaker 1>actually started getting a routine and our guys are finishing

0:24:37.320 --> 0:24:40.600
<v Speaker 1>up finals uh this week. And you know, staff wise,

0:24:40.640 --> 0:24:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we're flipping the switch. We're thinking positive, we're

0:24:43.400 --> 0:24:45.400
<v Speaker 1>thinking about, you know, when we get our guys back

0:24:45.400 --> 0:24:49.119
<v Speaker 1>in the summer and getting ready to play the season. Coach,

0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:52.000
<v Speaker 1>sixteen players from your program have been drafted over the

0:24:52.119 --> 0:24:55.000
<v Speaker 1>last three years. That's the best from Auburn's from US

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:58.000
<v Speaker 1>since to ninety one. That's a long time. Ago now,

0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:00.560
<v Speaker 1>but part of programs success, I as he was winning

0:25:00.560 --> 0:25:03.240
<v Speaker 1>football games, winning with a vision and winning the SEC

0:25:03.480 --> 0:25:06.840
<v Speaker 1>and and moving on from there. But seeing players go pro.

0:25:07.400 --> 0:25:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Six Auburn players drafted this year. That tells you a

0:25:10.359 --> 0:25:12.720
<v Speaker 1>lot about where your program is right now. Yeah, it

0:25:12.760 --> 0:25:15.199
<v Speaker 1>really does. We're very excited, um, you know about the

0:25:15.240 --> 0:25:17.159
<v Speaker 1>guys and the thing about it, the guys have been

0:25:17.240 --> 0:25:19.800
<v Speaker 1>drafted and very well at the next level. We had

0:25:19.800 --> 0:25:22.920
<v Speaker 1>six drafted this year. We had eight free agents, which

0:25:22.960 --> 0:25:24.560
<v Speaker 1>I think there's gonna be a handful of those guys

0:25:24.640 --> 0:25:26.720
<v Speaker 1>are gonna have a real chance to make a team.

0:25:27.080 --> 0:25:30.040
<v Speaker 1>So real good uh time right now to be an

0:25:30.040 --> 0:25:33.439
<v Speaker 1>Auburn Tiger. A coach gust Malson with us from the

0:25:33.480 --> 0:25:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Auburn Tigers. Let's talk about Daniel Thomas and I was

0:25:36.520 --> 0:25:39.720
<v Speaker 1>reading about his recruitment stories. Pretty interesting. He was a

0:25:40.600 --> 0:25:43.720
<v Speaker 1>late addition to that signing class and was about to

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:46.800
<v Speaker 1>go to Minnesota, of all places, a guy from Montgomery,

0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:49.879
<v Speaker 1>Alabama Lee High School was about to go to Minneapolis instead.

0:25:49.920 --> 0:25:52.440
<v Speaker 1>You bring him in late, take us through that process,

0:25:52.440 --> 0:25:55.600
<v Speaker 1>and how close of a call was that? Yeah, of

0:25:55.680 --> 0:25:57.760
<v Speaker 1>course he's right down the roads. We knew about him.

0:25:57.960 --> 0:26:00.119
<v Speaker 1>Brought him in an official bust the last week in

0:26:00.240 --> 0:26:03.359
<v Speaker 1>and you can just kind of tell his positive energy.

0:26:03.800 --> 0:26:06.359
<v Speaker 1>And got a chance to to meet his family that

0:26:06.480 --> 0:26:09.119
<v Speaker 1>weekend too, And so after he left, we wanted to

0:26:09.119 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 1>make this thing work, and luckily the numbers worked out,

0:26:12.040 --> 0:26:13.800
<v Speaker 1>we were able to make that call I think about

0:26:13.840 --> 0:26:17.439
<v Speaker 1>seven seven thirty Wednesday morning, and uh, you know, he

0:26:17.480 --> 0:26:19.639
<v Speaker 1>was overjoyed. His mom was on the phone crying. It

0:26:19.720 --> 0:26:22.920
<v Speaker 1>was a real special moment for him to be drafted. Now,

0:26:23.080 --> 0:26:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's just, uh, it's just a real special deal.

0:26:26.320 --> 0:26:28.679
<v Speaker 1>From that moment when he set foot on campus in

0:26:28.760 --> 0:26:32.359
<v Speaker 1>Auburn to now, how much did he grow. Let's start

0:26:32.359 --> 0:26:34.439
<v Speaker 1>off off the field as a person. What kind of

0:26:34.760 --> 0:26:36.840
<v Speaker 1>person did he become in those years? And I'll tell

0:26:36.880 --> 0:26:40.040
<v Speaker 1>you what you're getting an unbelievable leader. Uh, such a

0:26:40.080 --> 0:26:43.920
<v Speaker 1>positive person, a very spiritual person. I mean he'll he'll

0:26:43.960 --> 0:26:46.439
<v Speaker 1>send Bible verses out every day, you know, to the

0:26:46.480 --> 0:26:49.160
<v Speaker 1>team and the staff. He's our f C, a leader,

0:26:49.680 --> 0:26:52.359
<v Speaker 1>me my wife. We we take guys on mission trips

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:54.560
<v Speaker 1>in the spring and he went back to back years

0:26:54.600 --> 0:26:57.960
<v Speaker 1>and just a wonderful human being that's gonna bring a

0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:01.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of positivity to that locker room Dust Mason with

0:27:01.320 --> 0:27:03.800
<v Speaker 1>his head coach of the Auburn Tigers. Now on the field,

0:27:03.840 --> 0:27:06.360
<v Speaker 1>he was paired up with Jeremiah Denson at the safety

0:27:06.359 --> 0:27:08.280
<v Speaker 1>position the last couple of years. It was a good

0:27:08.600 --> 0:27:10.960
<v Speaker 1>tag team combo in the back end of your defense. There.

0:27:10.960 --> 0:27:13.040
<v Speaker 1>He was second on the team and tackles the last

0:27:13.080 --> 0:27:16.280
<v Speaker 1>two years. What kind of player will the Jaguars get

0:27:16.320 --> 0:27:19.400
<v Speaker 1>at the safety position and on special teams as well. Yeah,

0:27:19.440 --> 0:27:21.359
<v Speaker 1>I call him the heat seeking messial. I mean, he

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:23.919
<v Speaker 1>just has nose for the ball, and um, you know,

0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 1>and he's a very good tackler, a good open field tackler,

0:27:27.400 --> 0:27:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a great competitor, and uh he's experienced. I mean, you're

0:27:31.040 --> 0:27:32.879
<v Speaker 1>talking about a guy that's been a lot of big games,

0:27:33.000 --> 0:27:36.879
<v Speaker 1>understands the game, understand situations. And you just said a

0:27:36.960 --> 0:27:39.320
<v Speaker 1>special things. He's one of our better special teams player.

0:27:39.359 --> 0:27:42.560
<v Speaker 1>And he took special teams just as you know, serious

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:44.239
<v Speaker 1>as he did defense. And he was one of our

0:27:44.280 --> 0:27:48.080
<v Speaker 1>special teams leaders. And uh, you know, I can't say

0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:49.960
<v Speaker 1>enough good things about him. He's got a chance of

0:27:50.000 --> 0:27:53.280
<v Speaker 1>playing in the league a long long time. What was

0:27:53.320 --> 0:27:56.600
<v Speaker 1>the best moment that you remember from him on the field?

0:27:57.119 --> 0:27:59.280
<v Speaker 1>Is it that Iron Bowl his first time out a

0:27:59.320 --> 0:28:01.520
<v Speaker 1>couple of picks hurts or is there something later in

0:28:01.560 --> 0:28:03.960
<v Speaker 1>his career that stands up I tell you what you

0:28:04.000 --> 0:28:05.960
<v Speaker 1>just I mean, you just said it, like start out

0:28:06.160 --> 0:28:08.200
<v Speaker 1>as a true freshman in the Iron Ball on the

0:28:08.280 --> 0:28:10.919
<v Speaker 1>road two interceptions. Uh, and he grew up in the

0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:13.639
<v Speaker 1>state and he understands how big that is. And that

0:28:13.720 --> 0:28:16.320
<v Speaker 1>really just laid the groundwork for him from a confidence

0:28:16.320 --> 0:28:20.399
<v Speaker 1>standpoint that hey, not only can I play in this league,

0:28:20.400 --> 0:28:22.920
<v Speaker 1>but I can play very high level. And then after that,

0:28:23.000 --> 0:28:25.359
<v Speaker 1>really the the next three years, it was just like

0:28:25.400 --> 0:28:27.320
<v Speaker 1>he turned into one of our leaders, a guy that

0:28:27.359 --> 0:28:31.800
<v Speaker 1>you can count on. Uh, that has so much character. Uh.

0:28:31.840 --> 0:28:34.680
<v Speaker 1>He loves practice and he loves the game of football.

0:28:34.760 --> 0:28:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean and uh, like I said, I can't say

0:28:37.400 --> 0:28:40.800
<v Speaker 1>enough good things coach mal Is is it the leadership

0:28:40.840 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 1>part of his the way he goes around and does

0:28:43.600 --> 0:28:46.560
<v Speaker 1>his business. Is it more of a vocal leadership? Is

0:28:46.600 --> 0:28:50.400
<v Speaker 1>it by example a mixture? What's that personality? Like? Well,

0:28:50.560 --> 0:28:53.880
<v Speaker 1>really it's by example, uh, first of all, but this year,

0:28:54.000 --> 0:28:57.120
<v Speaker 1>being a senior, he was on my leadership committee. Uh.

0:28:57.160 --> 0:28:59.280
<v Speaker 1>And then he started to become more vocal and he's

0:28:59.360 --> 0:29:02.360
<v Speaker 1>the type. You know, he's not gonna say a whole lot,

0:29:02.560 --> 0:29:05.720
<v Speaker 1>but when he does, everybody listens and they have so

0:29:05.800 --> 0:29:10.000
<v Speaker 1>much respect for him as a person. As a player. Uh,

0:29:10.040 --> 0:29:13.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, everyone is rooting for Daniel Thomas coach. A

0:29:13.920 --> 0:29:15.440
<v Speaker 1>couple more minutes with you here, and I've got to

0:29:15.440 --> 0:29:17.280
<v Speaker 1>ask you while we have you on here about a

0:29:17.280 --> 0:29:20.840
<v Speaker 1>couple of other SEC players that the Jaguars drafted on

0:29:20.920 --> 0:29:23.880
<v Speaker 1>the defensive side of the football. You're, of course noted

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:26.320
<v Speaker 1>for your offensive prowess. There's the head coach of the

0:29:26.320 --> 0:29:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Auburn Tigers. So let's start with C. J. Henderson. You

0:29:29.840 --> 0:29:33.480
<v Speaker 1>saw Florida last year. I think he had three passes

0:29:33.560 --> 0:29:36.560
<v Speaker 1>defense in that game. The cornerback out of Florida. What

0:29:36.760 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of corner and how how did you have to

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:41.320
<v Speaker 1>adjust when you when you saw him on the outside. Yeah,

0:29:41.360 --> 0:29:43.800
<v Speaker 1>he was a guy that we definitely game playing around

0:29:43.840 --> 0:29:46.200
<v Speaker 1>and tried to be very smart because we knew he

0:29:46.200 --> 0:29:48.240
<v Speaker 1>had big play of belvy. He just felt such a

0:29:48.280 --> 0:29:51.040
<v Speaker 1>confident player and so you know that was a big,

0:29:51.080 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 1>big factor We're trying to game playing around him. And

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:56.200
<v Speaker 1>there was one one of the defensive linemen that, uh

0:29:56.320 --> 0:29:58.680
<v Speaker 1>that we really were the two Keys, we felt like

0:29:59.200 --> 0:30:03.320
<v Speaker 1>and being sussible, but but a dynamic player. Caleb and

0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:06.880
<v Speaker 1>chased on the other Jaguars first round pick. As we

0:30:06.920 --> 0:30:09.400
<v Speaker 1>sit here and talk today, the guy is twenty years

0:30:09.400 --> 0:30:11.600
<v Speaker 1>old and he's a first round pick in the NFL.

0:30:11.640 --> 0:30:14.080
<v Speaker 1>He'll be twenty one. So now there's a lot of

0:30:14.080 --> 0:30:16.680
<v Speaker 1>tread left on the tires there for the Jaguars at least.

0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:18.920
<v Speaker 1>But what kind of impact did he didn't make the

0:30:19.000 --> 0:30:21.240
<v Speaker 1>last couple of years in the SEC. You know, we

0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:24.440
<v Speaker 1>were always concerned about him rushing the pastor. Um, you know,

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:28.200
<v Speaker 1>he's long, he's fast, Um, you know, very explosive, and

0:30:28.640 --> 0:30:30.920
<v Speaker 1>this Pastor he got a lot better against the run.

0:30:31.400 --> 0:30:34.960
<v Speaker 1>So you're talking about a really, really good player that

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:39.040
<v Speaker 1>has a lot outside. Like I said, he's scary when

0:30:39.080 --> 0:30:43.080
<v Speaker 1>you go against him, you know, Russian the Pastor. And finally,

0:30:43.200 --> 0:30:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Don Davis Russell was here with the Jaguars as well,

0:30:46.080 --> 0:30:48.240
<v Speaker 1>a draft pick late last year. I gotta get him

0:30:48.240 --> 0:30:49.840
<v Speaker 1>on the field a little bit, but he's working his

0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:51.920
<v Speaker 1>way up and we're glad to have him around here

0:30:51.920 --> 0:30:54.840
<v Speaker 1>for sure. Yeah, Don Tangers is one of all time favorites.

0:30:54.920 --> 0:30:57.120
<v Speaker 1>So you're talking about a guy that's just so steady

0:30:57.720 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 1>h but he played really good for us. He's one

0:30:59.840 --> 0:31:03.200
<v Speaker 1>of those guys it's just steady consistent. It gets overlooked.

0:31:03.280 --> 0:31:05.080
<v Speaker 1>I think I think he was a lot better than

0:31:05.440 --> 0:31:07.320
<v Speaker 1>the attention that he got while he was here, and

0:31:07.320 --> 0:31:10.680
<v Speaker 1>probably even with you guys too. But very good football player,

0:31:10.840 --> 0:31:14.760
<v Speaker 1>very steady consistent. Um, you know. So I can't say

0:31:14.800 --> 0:31:18.600
<v Speaker 1>enough geting things about Dontegas. There's Gus Melson, head coach

0:31:18.640 --> 0:31:21.719

0:35:54.320 --> 0:35:58.000
<v Speaker 1>up last night. Guest feat John Ocean, What was your

0:35:58.040 --> 0:36:02.840
<v Speaker 1>last Mellow mushroom experience. Um no, it was been a while.

0:36:02.920 --> 0:36:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I think uh, White and Son went there for some

0:36:06.080 --> 0:36:10.520
<v Speaker 1>pick up a few weeks back. Maybe maybe right at

0:36:10.560 --> 0:36:13.400
<v Speaker 1>the start of the pandemic, but I do miss it.

0:36:13.440 --> 0:36:17.640
<v Speaker 1>We're downtown in Springfield now and uh you know, uh,

0:36:17.880 --> 0:36:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the Avondale is the routine stop. Now, Yeah, that's where. Yeah,

0:36:23.160 --> 0:36:25.680
<v Speaker 1>that's where I was last night, curbside pick up. Easiest

0:36:25.719 --> 0:36:28.439
<v Speaker 1>could be the car barely stopped and then they came

0:36:28.440 --> 0:36:29.680
<v Speaker 1>out and threw the pizza in the car and just

0:36:29.760 --> 0:36:33.279
<v Speaker 1>kept on going. It's I'm sure they appreciated that. And

0:36:33.760 --> 0:36:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I dove out of the way as you ran by.

0:36:35.800 --> 0:36:38.800
<v Speaker 1>It's right. Then I hustled, hustled back to to scarf

0:36:38.880 --> 0:36:41.280
<v Speaker 1>it down. John. What are you make of this? Andy

0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Dalton buzz on social media. I guess we kind of

0:36:44.480 --> 0:36:47.520
<v Speaker 1>saw this coming when he was cut. But do you think,

0:36:47.760 --> 0:36:50.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, log seems to think that it wouldn't be

0:36:50.239 --> 0:36:53.839
<v Speaker 1>a bad idea depending on the price. Yeah, it makes

0:36:53.840 --> 0:36:57.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of sense. I mean, it's uh anything taking

0:36:57.239 --> 0:37:00.799
<v Speaker 1>it makes sense, not necessarily because the iford nexting so much,

0:37:01.400 --> 0:37:05.880
<v Speaker 1>but you know, clearly Jay Gruden has spend time with Dalton.

0:37:06.400 --> 0:37:09.839
<v Speaker 1>It's probably a comfort level there. Uh, and I sent

0:37:09.920 --> 0:37:13.719
<v Speaker 1>throughout the if you off season, We talked about it.

0:37:14.440 --> 0:37:18.920
<v Speaker 1>They have hope in Minshew and they have reason to hope.

0:37:19.480 --> 0:37:22.000
<v Speaker 1>But you know, as much as I like and as

0:37:22.040 --> 0:37:25.120
<v Speaker 1>much as I hope too, there were long stretches last

0:37:25.200 --> 0:37:30.200
<v Speaker 1>year where Minshew really struggled and even in some of

0:37:30.239 --> 0:37:34.720
<v Speaker 1>the winds, you know, there were long periods of half

0:37:35.719 --> 0:37:39.160
<v Speaker 1>that if if that would happen again, which I don't

0:37:39.200 --> 0:37:42.040
<v Speaker 1>think it will, but if it would, do you want

0:37:42.480 --> 0:37:45.920
<v Speaker 1>your backup to be Dobbs and a rookie? You know?

0:37:47.040 --> 0:37:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I think it still feels like they would like there

0:37:50.560 --> 0:37:54.239
<v Speaker 1>to be some alternatives there, and uh, you know, to

0:37:54.320 --> 0:37:56.480
<v Speaker 1>meet Dalton for that reason makes sense. I don't know

0:37:56.520 --> 0:38:00.400
<v Speaker 1>if they didn't go after other guys because they assume

0:38:00.560 --> 0:38:04.239
<v Speaker 1>that Dalton would come available this way, that seems like

0:38:04.280 --> 0:38:06.520
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a reach, because you can't always

0:38:06.520 --> 0:38:09.560
<v Speaker 1>assume things like that. I don't know that would have

0:38:09.600 --> 0:38:12.600
<v Speaker 1>precluded from going after somebody else, but I can't help

0:38:12.640 --> 0:38:15.080
<v Speaker 1>but think that get the relationship with Gruden wouldn't help

0:38:15.080 --> 0:38:18.239
<v Speaker 1>on that front. I guess the other part of it

0:38:18.280 --> 0:38:20.880
<v Speaker 1>as a cost, like what's what's he really expecting? And

0:38:20.960 --> 0:38:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the market can't be crazy for him. Now, you wouldn't

0:38:25.040 --> 0:38:29.720
<v Speaker 1>think based on what Winston got in in New Orleans. Um,

0:38:30.000 --> 0:38:33.879
<v Speaker 1>I mean you know in uh but you never know

0:38:34.040 --> 0:38:39.120
<v Speaker 1>how that plays out. You know, you would have necessarily

0:38:39.120 --> 0:38:42.080
<v Speaker 1>thought that Jaguars would have a would get a fourth

0:38:42.200 --> 0:38:45.759
<v Speaker 1>for Fold when other teams couldn't get anything for New

0:38:45.840 --> 0:38:51.439
<v Speaker 1>you know. So the quarterback market sometimes doesn't play by

0:38:51.560 --> 0:38:53.439
<v Speaker 1>the same rules as the rest of the market because

0:38:53.440 --> 0:38:58.200
<v Speaker 1>it's quarterback. But if you get him for reasonable um,

0:38:58.280 --> 0:39:03.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, no matter what people might think and say,

0:39:03.520 --> 0:39:06.799
<v Speaker 1>And this is not a rebuild, this is not a

0:39:06.840 --> 0:39:10.840
<v Speaker 1>tank for Trevor. There's none of that is reality to

0:39:10.960 --> 0:39:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the people making decisions for this team. So if they

0:39:14.040 --> 0:39:16.879
<v Speaker 1>think that Dalton is a guy who can give them

0:39:16.920 --> 0:39:19.640
<v Speaker 1>a good chance, and if they want to and they

0:39:19.640 --> 0:39:21.920
<v Speaker 1>think he's the right fit, then absolutely I think it

0:39:22.000 --> 0:39:26.239
<v Speaker 1>makes sense. Yeah, the the whole tanking argument is ridiculous.

0:39:26.400 --> 0:39:29.879
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you don't tank because you get fired this

0:39:29.960 --> 0:39:34.719
<v Speaker 1>year if you tank well and even you know, to me,

0:39:34.760 --> 0:39:36.719
<v Speaker 1>it looks no further than Miami last year to know

0:39:36.840 --> 0:39:40.399
<v Speaker 1>that it's it's ridiculous. This is a team that I mean,

0:39:40.880 --> 0:39:43.520
<v Speaker 1>everybody in the media who was close to that team

0:39:44.800 --> 0:39:47.919
<v Speaker 1>was sure that they were tanking, And it almost felt

0:39:47.920 --> 0:39:49.440
<v Speaker 1>when you read the reports, and I know some of

0:39:49.480 --> 0:39:51.880
<v Speaker 1>the reporters down they have done a long time, it

0:39:52.000 --> 0:39:53.879
<v Speaker 1>felt like they were hearing it from the inside. They

0:39:53.880 --> 0:39:56.040
<v Speaker 1>were so confident. You know, there's a different kind of

0:39:56.040 --> 0:40:00.799
<v Speaker 1>reporting when you're hearing the stores well, guess what, once

0:40:00.840 --> 0:40:03.320
<v Speaker 1>floor has got there. And once those players started playing,

0:40:04.239 --> 0:40:09.680
<v Speaker 1>they didn't want to lose sixteen games. So it's why

0:40:09.960 --> 0:40:13.279
<v Speaker 1>try when it's out of your control? Are you gonna

0:40:13.320 --> 0:40:15.800
<v Speaker 1>try to lose sixteen? What another team was the sixteen?

0:40:16.480 --> 0:40:19.399
<v Speaker 1>So I just think it's uh, especially with this roster

0:40:19.480 --> 0:40:21.560
<v Speaker 1>right now. JP. If you look at the roster on

0:40:21.640 --> 0:40:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars, you've got Minshoe and three really good young

0:40:25.760 --> 0:40:33.800
<v Speaker 1>players Taylor uh Shark and uh I'm Jonah and Josh Allen,

0:40:34.640 --> 0:40:39.120
<v Speaker 1>plus Miles Jack plus now five or six rookies who

0:40:39.160 --> 0:40:42.400
<v Speaker 1>you think you're gonna make huge impact and Brandon Linder

0:40:42.440 --> 0:40:46.560
<v Speaker 1>and Norma. This is not the two thousand thirteen Jaguars,

0:40:46.560 --> 0:40:48.160
<v Speaker 1>where when I looked at me, I thought, boy, where

0:40:48.160 --> 0:40:54.560
<v Speaker 1>did they compete? Every every roster spot has either a

0:40:54.680 --> 0:40:57.960
<v Speaker 1>good player or a potentially very good player prime pick.

0:40:58.840 --> 0:41:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I just don't. I don't see the tanking thing beyond

0:41:01.640 --> 0:41:05.160
<v Speaker 1>the fact they traded some veterans who I think most

0:41:05.160 --> 0:41:09.200
<v Speaker 1>of those veterans, people who know football, don't think they

0:41:09.239 --> 0:41:11.640
<v Speaker 1>were close to being in their prime anyway. So I

0:41:11.680 --> 0:41:15.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know that they're worse than last year. I just

0:41:15.080 --> 0:41:17.480
<v Speaker 1>don't think they are. It is a lot of youth

0:41:17.520 --> 0:41:19.839
<v Speaker 1>coming in though, John Ozan with US Jaguars dot Com

0:41:19.920 --> 0:41:23.239
<v Speaker 1>senior writer here on Jaguars Happy Hour on this Thursday afternoon.

0:41:23.320 --> 0:41:28.840
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, twelve draft picks, eighteen undrafted rookie free agents signed,

0:41:29.000 --> 0:41:32.279
<v Speaker 1>So that's dirty rookies on the roster right now for

0:41:32.360 --> 0:41:35.359
<v Speaker 1>this football team. And there's a lot of youth, and

0:41:35.600 --> 0:41:37.640
<v Speaker 1>as we know, John, a lot of times a lot

0:41:37.640 --> 0:41:41.319
<v Speaker 1>of youth means a lot of els. But as you said,

0:41:41.320 --> 0:41:43.960
<v Speaker 1>there there are some some of the early round draft

0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:47.200
<v Speaker 1>picks especially, that are going to be expected to jump

0:41:47.200 --> 0:41:49.719
<v Speaker 1>in and make an impact. Whether they do or not,

0:41:49.840 --> 0:41:52.839
<v Speaker 1>that's you know, we'll see, but that's where they are

0:41:52.920 --> 0:41:55.759
<v Speaker 1>right now. It's a young, gonna be a young football team.

0:41:55.800 --> 0:41:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Outside of even this draft class and this rookie class,

0:41:58.440 --> 0:42:00.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's still impact players that are very young

0:42:00.640 --> 0:42:03.440
<v Speaker 1>on this team. Well, when I say, I don't grasp

0:42:03.480 --> 0:42:06.520
<v Speaker 1>the tanking thing, and I don't grasp why people think

0:42:06.520 --> 0:42:10.399
<v Speaker 1>this team is gonna go up one and fifteen. I'm

0:42:10.440 --> 0:42:12.880
<v Speaker 1>not saying they're a double digit win team yet. I

0:42:12.960 --> 0:42:15.759
<v Speaker 1>just think there is a place between two and fourteen

0:42:15.800 --> 0:42:19.279
<v Speaker 1>and ten and six that this team has a chance

0:42:19.320 --> 0:42:21.920
<v Speaker 1>to settle. It was six and ten last year. I

0:42:21.960 --> 0:42:24.279
<v Speaker 1>think the run defense is much better than it was

0:42:24.400 --> 0:42:27.200
<v Speaker 1>last year, and that to me was where everything split

0:42:27.280 --> 0:42:30.239
<v Speaker 1>off the table last year. Beyond that, they were a

0:42:30.280 --> 0:42:37.640
<v Speaker 1>relatively competitive team. So does in talking to him clearly

0:42:37.840 --> 0:42:41.960
<v Speaker 1>like the idea, and he's hit on this team. He's

0:42:42.040 --> 0:42:45.640
<v Speaker 1>hit on this team every time he talked publicly. He's

0:42:45.719 --> 0:42:47.960
<v Speaker 1>excited about having a bunch of guys who were all

0:42:48.000 --> 0:42:52.360
<v Speaker 1>pulling in the same direction without a lot of outside stuff.

0:42:53.040 --> 0:42:56.920
<v Speaker 1>And there might be, you know, to say what you

0:42:56.960 --> 0:42:59.480
<v Speaker 1>want about Jan and Leonard and all the trade stuff.

0:43:00.120 --> 0:43:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Might be a few guys who have some lingering issues,

0:43:03.040 --> 0:43:06.040
<v Speaker 1>But overall, I think you would agree jp this locker

0:43:06.120 --> 0:43:09.920
<v Speaker 1>room next year, it if and when we're walking into

0:43:09.960 --> 0:43:13.040
<v Speaker 1>it is going to feel like it's pulling in a

0:43:13.040 --> 0:43:16.640
<v Speaker 1>new direction. And I don't know how you I don't

0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:19.080
<v Speaker 1>know what Handel we can say about that, but it

0:43:19.200 --> 0:43:22.480
<v Speaker 1>feels like it's Josh Allen, J One Taylor, D J.

0:43:22.719 --> 0:43:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Chart Gardner, Minshew's team and it's gonna be pulling in

0:43:25.920 --> 0:43:31.840
<v Speaker 1>their direction. And I think the organization is excited about that. Uh.

0:43:32.080 --> 0:43:34.399
<v Speaker 1>We talked a lot over the weekend on Zoom JP.

0:43:35.600 --> 0:43:38.319
<v Speaker 1>It feels like this draft is going to be looked

0:43:38.360 --> 0:43:43.799
<v Speaker 1>back on as a see change, new direction draft. We'll

0:43:43.840 --> 0:43:46.640
<v Speaker 1>see if the players can live up to that. John Ozan,

0:43:46.800 --> 0:43:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars dot Com senior writer here on Jaguars Happy,

0:43:49.600 --> 0:43:51.359
<v Speaker 1>our last couple of minutes with you here, John, So,

0:43:51.920 --> 0:43:56.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna ask you of the twelve draft picks, what

0:43:56.440 --> 0:44:00.840
<v Speaker 1>was the Jaguar's best selection, maybe the best value, the

0:44:01.320 --> 0:44:04.319
<v Speaker 1>one that made the most sense. And then what was

0:44:04.680 --> 0:44:09.399
<v Speaker 1>a pick that made you go hmm? And then how

0:44:09.400 --> 0:44:11.960
<v Speaker 1>do they get how do they prove that's the right call?

0:44:12.880 --> 0:44:15.440
<v Speaker 1>You know? I think C. J. Henderson has been overlooked

0:44:15.440 --> 0:44:17.600
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, maybe because he's a quiet guy, is

0:44:17.640 --> 0:44:20.400
<v Speaker 1>not as fun to talk to as I chased on

0:44:20.600 --> 0:44:25.800
<v Speaker 1>Or or Quarterman. But he'd better be your best selection.

0:44:26.640 --> 0:44:31.280
<v Speaker 1>And this is a guy who's job it is very quickly.

0:44:32.000 --> 0:44:35.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, most secondaries in the NFL aren't as loaded

0:44:35.360 --> 0:44:38.680
<v Speaker 1>as the Jaguars were in two thousand seventeen. They've usually

0:44:38.680 --> 0:44:41.879
<v Speaker 1>got one premier guy who can take away the side

0:44:41.880 --> 0:44:45.280
<v Speaker 1>of the field. Let the other guys double there, guys, etcetera.

0:44:46.120 --> 0:44:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Very quickly. He needs to be He was only taking

0:44:50.480 --> 0:44:53.279
<v Speaker 1>four spots below Jail. You know, this is not like

0:44:53.440 --> 0:44:57.719
<v Speaker 1>this is a low first round draft pick when you're yeah,

0:44:57.760 --> 0:44:59.520
<v Speaker 1>when you're picked in the top ten at a corner,

0:45:00.160 --> 0:45:03.799
<v Speaker 1>that's relatively rare. So you know, I think he has

0:45:03.840 --> 0:45:07.200
<v Speaker 1>the trait. They love this guy and it's become vogue

0:45:07.239 --> 0:45:08.640
<v Speaker 1>in the last three or four days. Talked about the

0:45:08.680 --> 0:45:12.000
<v Speaker 1>rest of the draft class. But I think he's the

0:45:12.040 --> 0:45:14.600
<v Speaker 1>guy that will certainly be watching more than any because

0:45:15.280 --> 0:45:17.399
<v Speaker 1>he's the guy who has to come through. I don't

0:45:17.400 --> 0:45:19.400
<v Speaker 1>know if there was a pick that surprised me as

0:45:19.480 --> 0:45:22.920
<v Speaker 1>much as in fact, they didn't go running back at

0:45:22.920 --> 0:45:27.800
<v Speaker 1>some point, um. I thought, even beyond the Leonard Fournette stuff,

0:45:28.480 --> 0:45:31.640
<v Speaker 1>whatever happens there, it felt to me before the draft

0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:37.080
<v Speaker 1>like they needed that change of pace um at a

0:45:37.239 --> 0:45:41.239
<v Speaker 1>missability guy, whatever that means. It felt like that was

0:45:41.280 --> 0:45:46.120
<v Speaker 1>going to be a pick, and apparently they feel good

0:45:46.120 --> 0:45:49.880
<v Speaker 1>about Armstead. They feel good about Leonard Fournette's ability to

0:45:49.960 --> 0:45:56.400
<v Speaker 1>do that. Um, you wonder if free agent released during

0:45:56.440 --> 0:46:00.759
<v Speaker 1>training camp, guy in running back, which often happens, could

0:46:00.800 --> 0:46:03.040
<v Speaker 1>be a guy like that for a year. But I

0:46:03.080 --> 0:46:05.160
<v Speaker 1>was a little surprised fourth round didn't include that. I

0:46:06.080 --> 0:46:09.279
<v Speaker 1>was very vocal for the draft that I thought. I

0:46:09.280 --> 0:46:11.240
<v Speaker 1>thought that's where they would address that, and they didn't.

0:46:12.280 --> 0:46:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars dot Com senior writer John Osan So the drafts

0:46:16.520 --> 0:46:22.200
<v Speaker 1>over the off season program has got that right. The

0:46:22.320 --> 0:46:25.000
<v Speaker 1>official start of the off season program was here, So

0:46:25.040 --> 0:46:28.160
<v Speaker 1>that means there's meetings and stuff going on virtually. So

0:46:28.760 --> 0:46:31.759
<v Speaker 1>what now for you? What's what's the coverage like for

0:46:31.800 --> 0:46:33.879
<v Speaker 1>you on the team site coming up in the next

0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:36.400
<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks. I think all of us are doing

0:46:36.440 --> 0:46:39.359
<v Speaker 1>the same thing, trying to reach out to as many

0:46:39.600 --> 0:46:44.040
<v Speaker 1>college coaches, Jaguars assistant trying to get a feel for

0:46:44.080 --> 0:46:49.080
<v Speaker 1>this draft class. I we're starting what we call the

0:46:49.080 --> 0:46:54.480
<v Speaker 1>ozone podcast, and we talked to who try to go, yeah,

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:58.520
<v Speaker 1>try to go a little deeper, you know, some in

0:46:58.640 --> 0:47:02.480
<v Speaker 1>depth type stuff interviews, which I like to do. You

0:47:02.560 --> 0:47:05.279
<v Speaker 1>told anybody about this yet? I don't think this is public. Yeah,

0:47:05.280 --> 0:47:08.839
<v Speaker 1>this is breaking news. Uh. You know we've talked about

0:47:08.840 --> 0:47:11.160
<v Speaker 1>it amongst ourselves, right, but not publicly. Not but not

0:47:11.200 --> 0:47:15.000
<v Speaker 1>on a radio show. That's true, true, So we'll be

0:47:15.000 --> 0:47:16.799
<v Speaker 1>trying to do that and I will see that. God

0:47:17.400 --> 0:47:20.480
<v Speaker 1>hope to have Michael Silver on the next week h

0:47:20.560 --> 0:47:22.760
<v Speaker 1>to talk a little about what he's still in the draft.

0:47:22.840 --> 0:47:25.240
<v Speaker 1>And it's always good to talk to Mike anyway. He's

0:47:26.160 --> 0:47:29.600
<v Speaker 1>he's a good NFL guy. So we'll we'll try that

0:47:29.680 --> 0:47:32.040
<v Speaker 1>and on weeks I can't get those people. I've got

0:47:32.080 --> 0:47:40.960
<v Speaker 1>some neighbors who are pretty interesting. Hey, hey, Ted, let's talk. Yeah,

0:47:41.040 --> 0:47:42.759
<v Speaker 1>we'll see how it goes. We're gonna try to use

0:47:42.800 --> 0:47:46.160
<v Speaker 1>this down down time of time where we don't have

0:47:46.200 --> 0:47:49.879

0:52:49.160 --> 0:52:52.200
<v Speaker 1>The full conversation available on Jaguars dot com. Go to

0:52:52.280 --> 0:52:55.839
<v Speaker 1>visit with coach Melson and discussed Daniel Thomas and much

0:52:55.880 --> 0:53:00.600
<v Speaker 1>more about the Auburn Tigers program that's going. You heard

0:53:00.600 --> 0:53:03.400
<v Speaker 1>in that interview that they've had over the last three

0:53:03.640 --> 0:53:07.719
<v Speaker 1>draft classes sixteen players drafted. That's the second most in

0:53:07.800 --> 0:53:11.719
<v Speaker 1>a three year period for Auburn since nineteen eighty nine

0:53:11.719 --> 0:53:13.959
<v Speaker 1>to ninety one when they had twenty and that span

0:53:14.040 --> 0:53:17.200
<v Speaker 1>that's a long time ago, so things are going well.

0:53:17.239 --> 0:53:22.120
<v Speaker 1>That's part of program health, let's say, and in college

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:24.799
<v Speaker 1>football is how many players are putting out. And of course,

0:53:24.840 --> 0:53:27.400
<v Speaker 1>when you put that many players out, you've got to

0:53:27.440 --> 0:53:29.960
<v Speaker 1>have some players to come in and play behind them.

0:53:30.040 --> 0:53:33.600
<v Speaker 1>That's the next step. And that's the challenge for programs

0:53:33.600 --> 0:53:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that are successful and sending guys out to the National

0:53:36.640 --> 0:53:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Football League, how can they fill those spots and move

0:53:40.080 --> 0:53:43.000
<v Speaker 1>on and move forward. And it always kind of feels

0:53:43.000 --> 0:53:44.879
<v Speaker 1>like coach Mazan has a little bit of a hot

0:53:44.920 --> 0:53:47.360
<v Speaker 1>seat at Auburn, which a lot of times it is

0:53:47.400 --> 0:53:51.480
<v Speaker 1>a hot seat, but he's maintained and they've won a

0:53:51.520 --> 0:53:54.239
<v Speaker 1>lot of football games in his time at Auburn, and

0:53:54.320 --> 0:53:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Thomas was a big part of that the last

0:53:56.000 --> 0:53:59.000
<v Speaker 1>couple of years. He's now Jacksonville Jaguar. We caught up

0:53:59.040 --> 0:54:01.520
<v Speaker 1>today and that's not out yet. You'll hear the full

0:54:01.520 --> 0:54:04.400
<v Speaker 1>interview next week on Jaguars dot com. Melt Tucker is

0:54:04.440 --> 0:54:07.480
<v Speaker 1>now the head coach at Michigan State. Last year he

0:54:07.560 --> 0:54:10.919
<v Speaker 1>was the head coach at Colorado, the Buffaloes head coach.

0:54:10.960 --> 0:54:14.000
<v Speaker 1>He's a former Jaguars defensive coordinator. Of course, from two

0:54:14.000 --> 0:54:16.880
<v Speaker 1>thousand nine to twelve. Then he went on to the

0:54:16.880 --> 0:54:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Bears for a couple of years as the d C.

0:54:19.640 --> 0:54:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Was at Alabama for a year as the defensive backs coach,

0:54:23.800 --> 0:54:26.239
<v Speaker 1>and it was the freshman year for Ronnie Harrison, by

0:54:26.280 --> 0:54:29.120
<v Speaker 1>the way, and you'll you'll hear that conversation on Monday

0:54:29.120 --> 0:54:32.160
<v Speaker 1>as well. And then it was on to Georgia for

0:54:32.239 --> 0:54:35.000
<v Speaker 1>some successful years of the Bulldogs as the defensive coordinator,

0:54:35.000 --> 0:54:38.040
<v Speaker 1>and then on to Colorado as the head coach last year.

0:54:38.080 --> 0:54:44.240
<v Speaker 1>That means Lavisca Chennault was under his head coaching staff

0:54:44.320 --> 0:54:47.320
<v Speaker 1>last year and they used him a lot of different

0:54:47.320 --> 0:54:49.759
<v Speaker 1>ways on the field. With the question I had for

0:54:49.840 --> 0:54:52.120
<v Speaker 1>him was what is Labisca like off the field? He's

0:54:52.160 --> 0:54:54.839
<v Speaker 1>a he's a really quiet guy and uh and really

0:54:54.880 --> 0:54:57.640
<v Speaker 1>until he gets to know you, um and uh. So

0:54:57.719 --> 0:55:00.200
<v Speaker 1>when I first got to Motor, he was, you know,

0:55:00.400 --> 0:55:03.239
<v Speaker 1>very shy and uh and so it was a kind

0:55:03.280 --> 0:55:06.520
<v Speaker 1>of a process of him opening up, you know, once

0:55:06.520 --> 0:55:09.080
<v Speaker 1>he got to know me and the staff and uh.

0:55:09.200 --> 0:55:11.160
<v Speaker 1>But once he kind of got used to us and

0:55:11.239 --> 0:55:13.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of found out what we were all about, and

0:55:14.040 --> 0:55:16.440
<v Speaker 1>he's great, you know, and he's, like I said, he's

0:55:16.440 --> 0:55:19.040
<v Speaker 1>a fun guy. He's always got smile on his face.

0:55:19.280 --> 0:55:21.560
<v Speaker 1>He loves his team as he loves his coaches. He competes,

0:55:21.600 --> 0:55:25.279
<v Speaker 1>he practices hard um, you know, but for people you

0:55:25.320 --> 0:55:28.440
<v Speaker 1>know initially that he's not familiar with, he's gonna be

0:55:28.520 --> 0:55:30.560
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna be quiet's gonna be reserved. He's got the

0:55:30.880 --> 0:55:32.759
<v Speaker 1>he's got the braids. You know, they'll be covering his

0:55:32.840 --> 0:55:35.680
<v Speaker 1>face every now and then. But he'll he'll he'll come

0:55:35.719 --> 0:55:38.920
<v Speaker 1>out of it eventually. And uh and you guys will

0:55:38.920 --> 0:55:42.000
<v Speaker 1>work well together and we'll see what Labisca has. The

0:55:42.120 --> 0:55:44.440
<v Speaker 1>offer sounds like a lot for the Jaguars team, the

0:55:44.600 --> 0:55:46.879
<v Speaker 1>second round pick out of Colorado. There thanks to Melt

0:55:46.880 --> 0:55:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Tucker full visit coming up next week on Jaguars dot Com.

0:55:51.200 --> 0:55:53.279
<v Speaker 1>Time to go around the National Football League and we

0:55:53.320 --> 0:55:58.239
<v Speaker 1>start off in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where the Packers selected

0:55:58.360 --> 0:56:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Jordan's Love last Thursday in the first round. They moved

0:56:01.640 --> 0:56:04.319
<v Speaker 1>up four rounds to get him. So is this the

0:56:04.360 --> 0:56:07.640
<v Speaker 1>beginning of the end for Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay? Well,

0:56:07.719 --> 0:56:11.759
<v Speaker 1>Rogers has not made many appearances since then. He was

0:56:11.800 --> 0:56:14.560
<v Speaker 1>out there socially a lot on social media, out and

0:56:14.600 --> 0:56:17.440
<v Speaker 1>about as much as he can be in this time period,

0:56:17.440 --> 0:56:19.319
<v Speaker 1>but he was out there a lot. Obviously you saw

0:56:19.400 --> 0:56:22.680
<v Speaker 1>him everywhere, but that does not happened much. But apparently

0:56:22.680 --> 0:56:25.279
<v Speaker 1>he talked to Brett Farve, and now Brett Farve was

0:56:25.360 --> 0:56:28.680
<v Speaker 1>talking to a lot of the media folks. So Farve

0:56:29.160 --> 0:56:33.720
<v Speaker 1>said that basically disrespect would be a term maybe too

0:56:34.600 --> 0:56:38.680
<v Speaker 1>um describe what Rogers is feeling. Well, hey, that's part

0:56:38.719 --> 0:56:41.840
<v Speaker 1>of the NFL, and and they've got to move figure

0:56:41.880 --> 0:56:44.719
<v Speaker 1>out the next step of the quarterback position. And it

0:56:44.800 --> 0:56:46.879
<v Speaker 1>may not be this year, may not be the next

0:56:46.920 --> 0:56:49.840
<v Speaker 1>two years, but a couple of years down the line,

0:56:50.520 --> 0:56:52.760
<v Speaker 1>it might be time to move on from Aaron Rodgers.

0:56:53.400 --> 0:56:56.320
<v Speaker 1>And if you remember the same thing happened when Brett

0:56:56.320 --> 0:56:59.560
<v Speaker 1>Farve was the quarterback there. Rogers comes in late first

0:56:59.640 --> 0:57:02.879
<v Speaker 1>round it and but had to sit on the bench

0:57:02.920 --> 0:57:07.400
<v Speaker 1>for a couple of three years under far Far notoriously

0:57:07.520 --> 0:57:10.560
<v Speaker 1>did not really uh go out of his way to

0:57:10.680 --> 0:57:14.920
<v Speaker 1>help Aaron Rodgers in that tutor in process that I

0:57:14.920 --> 0:57:16.760
<v Speaker 1>don't know if that's even the right term up there

0:57:16.800 --> 0:57:19.520
<v Speaker 1>for what happened, but uh, it moved on and far

0:57:19.640 --> 0:57:22.439
<v Speaker 1>Far at some point moved on. They moved on from

0:57:22.520 --> 0:57:24.800
<v Speaker 1>far We ended up in Minnesota and and the rest

0:57:24.840 --> 0:57:27.840
<v Speaker 1>is history, and then Rogers has been the quarterback from that.

0:57:28.000 --> 0:57:31.200
<v Speaker 1>So interesting stuff there from the Green Bay Packers. We

0:57:31.320 --> 0:57:35.520
<v Speaker 1>heard earlier today the Bengals released Andy Dalton after nine seasons.

0:57:35.640 --> 0:57:38.479
<v Speaker 1>Joe Burrow is the new sheriff in town there and

0:57:38.760 --> 0:57:42.080
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars immediately were one of those team names thrown

0:57:42.120 --> 0:57:45.880
<v Speaker 1>around for consideration for Andy Dalton. And hearing from Jeff

0:57:45.920 --> 0:57:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Loghman and John Osier in this program today, it's it

0:57:50.720 --> 0:57:55.080
<v Speaker 1>makes a lot of sense with the offensive cornator j

0:57:55.200 --> 0:57:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Gruden here now he was there three years and Cincinnati

0:57:58.240 --> 0:58:00.640
<v Speaker 1>with Dalton the first three years Dalton was there. They

0:58:00.760 --> 0:58:02.880
<v Speaker 1>won a lot of football games in those times, not

0:58:02.880 --> 0:58:05.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of playoff games, not any, but they got there.

0:58:05.880 --> 0:58:07.520
<v Speaker 1>They were in the hunt, they were in the mix,

0:58:07.600 --> 0:58:10.040
<v Speaker 1>and they had some things going in Cincinnati for a

0:58:10.080 --> 0:58:13.320
<v Speaker 1>little while. We'll see what Dave Caldwell has up his sleeve,

0:58:14.040 --> 0:58:18.560
<v Speaker 1>if anything. Rob Gronkowski has joined Tom Brady and Tampa Bay.

0:58:18.600 --> 0:58:22.000
<v Speaker 1>But he boasted this week about having the Bucks playbook early.

0:58:22.640 --> 0:58:25.120
<v Speaker 1>The only problem is that that was while he was

0:58:25.120 --> 0:58:28.640
<v Speaker 1>still under control of the New England Patriots. He has

0:58:28.680 --> 0:58:33.200
<v Speaker 1>since said he was joking. Well, um, Always interesting to

0:58:33.200 --> 0:58:37.120
<v Speaker 1>see what Rob Gronkowski has to say, and this is

0:58:37.120 --> 0:58:39.919
<v Speaker 1>not breaking news. It shouldn't be breaking news. It should

0:58:40.000 --> 0:58:43.960
<v Speaker 1>be a well dumb moment. More than anything, the chiefs

0:58:44.000 --> 0:58:47.120
<v Speaker 1>of exercise the fifth year option on Patrick Mahomes, a

0:58:47.200 --> 0:58:52.000
<v Speaker 1>quarterback the Super Bowl champions last year in Kansas City.

0:58:52.440 --> 0:58:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Mahomes is going nowhere for a long long time.

0:58:56.280 --> 0:58:59.120
<v Speaker 1>At some point they will extend him and and do

0:58:59.240 --> 0:59:02.400
<v Speaker 1>all of that. Oh, that'll do it for our program today,

0:59:02.480 --> 0:59:05.640
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars Happy Hour thanks to Jeff Logman. So before we

0:59:05.680 --> 0:59:08.280
<v Speaker 1>get going here, uh, the three cheers segment is back.

0:59:08.680 --> 0:59:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Three cheers on Happy Hour to the Jaguars I T Department.

0:59:12.520 --> 0:59:14.600
<v Speaker 1>They did a great job over the draft last week

0:59:14.840 --> 0:59:19.600
<v Speaker 1>with a football side, with with the broadcast side, getting

0:59:19.600 --> 0:59:24.880
<v Speaker 1>everybody connected, keeping them connected, and the I T Department

0:59:25.280 --> 0:59:30.800
<v Speaker 1>should get cheers for their contribution to the Jaguars draft

0:59:31.480 --> 0:59:34.200
<v Speaker 1>thanks to Jeff Lockman, or thanks to Gus Melson on

0:59:34.240 --> 0:59:37.720

<v Speaker 1>JP Shadrick. That'll do it for Jaguars Happy Hour. We'll

0:59:41.240 --> 0:59:43.640
<v Speaker 1>catch you next week on the Jaguars Digital Network.
