- 0:41Speaker 1: get a lockdown corner with C. J. Henderson to go
- 0:45Speaker 1: along with eleven other draft picks. As we recap those
- 0:49Speaker 1: entire draft picks here on Jaguars Drive Time on Tuesday morning,
- 0:53Speaker 1: Ashlan Sullivan, Brian Sexton, and John Osier. Guys, it's now Tuesday.
- 0:58Speaker 1: But I don't know about you, Sun. They was a
- 1:00Speaker 1: big knap day for me. He has a long weekend, Brian,
- 1:05Speaker 1: I mean it was a weekend unlike any I've done
- 1:08Speaker 1: what drafts and uh, it was funny. The past hectic
- 1:14Speaker 1: drafts I've covered have always been one that's sort of
- 1:17Speaker 1: involved a surprise trade maybe Day two there being a
- 1:21Speaker 1: couple of trades, which adds to what it is a
- 1:24Speaker 1: deceptively long night. There were no trades in this on Saturday,
- 1:27Speaker 1: but it was one after the other. And I don't
- 1:30Speaker 1: remember being as frazzled, uh and just as hectic in
- 1:37Speaker 1: a draft as I was this weekend. But I think
- 1:39Speaker 1: the Jaguars did well. I think they check a lot
- 1:41Speaker 1: of boxes. But it was busy. In twenty six years
- 1:44Speaker 1: of doing this, the only draft that comes close was
- 1:47Speaker 1: the Expansion Draft where there were only two teams right
- 1:49Speaker 1: where just back and forth and back and forth, keep
- 1:53Speaker 1: draft of it all, um, it was. It was exhausting.
- 1:56Speaker 1: I'm sure for the scouts who then had to get
- 1:58Speaker 1: on the phone and start calling all of their targeted
- 2:01Speaker 1: guys for undrafted rookie free agents. Uh, they didn't really
- 2:05Speaker 1: get a break yesterday. I'm sure today is to them
- 2:08Speaker 1: what yesterday was to us. It's like unplugging. Yeah. I
- 2:12Speaker 1: feel for coach Marone Dave Cobble because when we were
- 2:15Speaker 1: covering it after those eight picks on Saturday, they still
- 2:19Speaker 1: had to go get on the phones and handle all
- 2:20Speaker 1: those undrafted freedoms. We were waiting to to speak with them,
- 2:23Speaker 1: and they had just started with the undrafted, so I
- 2:25Speaker 1: can only imagine the days they had Saturday night and
- 2:28Speaker 1: Sunday because that was a time YEA seen their salaries.
- 2:32Speaker 1: I don't feel that bad for him. This is where
- 2:36Speaker 1: you absolutely they earned it last week. All right, let's
- 2:42Speaker 1: get into big things, three big things, and we have
- 2:44Speaker 1: split it up into three days. Big thing one is
- 2:48Speaker 1: day one, and that equals winning picking up c J.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Henderson and Caleb and Chase On both. By the way,
- 2:55Speaker 1: the Jaguars had a number nine on their draft board
- 2:57Speaker 1: trying to decide between the two of them. That's why
- 3:00Speaker 1: this is such a big win that they got them
- 3:01Speaker 1: with nine and twenty getting both of those guys. Let's
- 3:04Speaker 1: hear from the L s U defensive end on his
- 3:07Speaker 1: college nickname and why it now applies to football. It's
- 3:11Speaker 1: a mottel. I feel like, obviously, you know door exploring
- 3:15Speaker 1: from Swiper, You're always you're always trying to take something,
- 3:17Speaker 1: always trying to take it, and um, I kind of
- 3:19Speaker 1: feel like that's that's kind of what I'm doing. I'm wanting,
- 3:22Speaker 1: I'm trying to take things. Obviously, nothing in this word
- 3:24Speaker 1: is given. Um So when I had that out, when
- 3:27Speaker 1: I say that motto is, um, I'm taking everything that
- 3:30Speaker 1: everything that belongs to me, and then something I want everything.
- 3:32Speaker 1: I'm being greedy, I'm not being I'm not being paid,
- 3:35Speaker 1: and let anybody step over me and pass me up.
- 3:38Speaker 1: I know the plane that guy has me. And with
- 3:41Speaker 1: that being said, I'm going from my motivation board and
- 3:43Speaker 1: all my determination, I'm gonna get whatever I want. Big
- 3:46Speaker 1: thing to Day two equals staying patients. Safe to say,
- 3:50Speaker 1: we all expected some sort of trade, whether it be
- 3:53Speaker 1: a trade up, trade down, throughout the weekend. We did
- 3:56Speaker 1: not expect twelve players to come in this draft class,
- 3:59Speaker 1: but that is exactly what we got. Day two pickups
- 4:02Speaker 1: Lavishka Chanal out of Colorado, a wide receiver, Davon Hamilton
- 4:06Speaker 1: out of Ohio State barely a top one thousand high
- 4:10Speaker 1: school recruit. Now is a day to selection in the
- 4:13Speaker 1: NFL Draft. Incredible story. He talked about now being in
- 4:16Speaker 1: the NFL, you gotta fight through the adversity. I mean,
- 4:19Speaker 1: the adversity is really what where you really learned a
- 4:22Speaker 1: lot about yourself. And I feel like I learned a
- 4:24Speaker 1: lot about myself throughout high school, throughout college, and I
- 4:28Speaker 1: mean it's just been a whirlwind but again I'm blessed.
- 4:32Speaker 1: You know, every single day, the good times in the
- 4:35Speaker 1: fad times. Day three, Big Thing three is what a day.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Eight draft picks on this day. As soon we were
- 4:42Speaker 1: finished covering one guy Boom, we were on the clock
- 4:46Speaker 1: with the next. No time for eating, no time for
- 4:48Speaker 1: any of that. Eight picks was a lot of picks
- 4:50Speaker 1: for all of us. This day was also filled with
- 4:53Speaker 1: a ton of emotion. I don't know about you, guys,
- 4:55Speaker 1: but Day three is always my favorite day cover because
- 4:58Speaker 1: of moments like this tight end. Tyler Davis's war room
- 5:01Speaker 1: call puts everything into perspective we think about coming and
- 5:05Speaker 1: playing the tight end for us. I love that. True
- 5:11Speaker 1: we're gonna get drafted man so much. Al Right, guys,
- 5:20Speaker 1: we've just heard from Tyler Davis, along with all those
- 5:23Speaker 1: other draft picksel Let's go all the way back up
- 5:25Speaker 1: to the top Day one. I think the biggest takeaway
- 5:28Speaker 1: there is one they went defense twice. I don't think
- 5:30Speaker 1: any of us expected that. And two number nine c
- 5:34Speaker 1: J Henderson, Caleb and Chase On. To get both of
- 5:37Speaker 1: those guys at nine and twenty is a huge win
- 5:40Speaker 1: for the Jags. Yeah, I still wonder had Derek Brown
- 5:45Speaker 1: been there, and Brian you can touch on this as well.
- 5:48Speaker 1: I still wonder if the middle of the defense wouldn't
- 5:51Speaker 1: have been a priority. That said, Dave Caldwell was pretty
- 5:54Speaker 1: clear every time he talked about this. He wanted edge rusher.
- 5:58Speaker 1: He said out on his video conference after the draft,
- 6:01Speaker 1: he sleeps much better when he's got ed Dresser was
- 6:04Speaker 1: coming off the edge. That's what Jason was. So they
- 6:08Speaker 1: evidently feel like they've improved the middle of the defense
- 6:10Speaker 1: with Hamilton's with Schobert, and they feel like they have
- 6:15Speaker 1: as opposed to a defensive tackle who might not be
- 6:17Speaker 1: impact C J. Henderson, Jason, these are guys that can
- 6:21Speaker 1: turn the ball over, affect the game, playmake dynamic. Uh.
- 6:25Speaker 1: You know, from what they wanted, they clearly hit twice. Well,
- 6:30Speaker 1: it would be hard to pass on a guy like
- 6:32Speaker 1: Derek Brown, who's just cheer size and athleticism make him
- 6:35Speaker 1: a rarity. But you know, they added to the defense
- 6:39Speaker 1: with Rodney Gunter and Al Woods and saw Taven Bryant
- 6:43Speaker 1: come on in the month of December and play his
- 6:46Speaker 1: best professional football. And so I think that because there
- 6:49Speaker 1: was such a line of demarcation with the cornerbacks, John
- 6:53Speaker 1: there were two right. Anything else was going to be
- 6:55Speaker 1: a reach in the first round, A J. Terrell, Uh
- 6:58Speaker 1: Trayvon Digs, all of these guy Damon Arnett who the
- 7:01Speaker 1: Raiders took it nineteen. It was all more of a
- 7:04Speaker 1: reach than if C. J. Henderson went there at nine.
- 7:08Speaker 1: So what really happened is they got a guy that
- 7:11Speaker 1: they couldn't have gotten anywhere later in the draft, and
- 7:13Speaker 1: then they got another guy that they didn't think they
- 7:15Speaker 1: would be able to get at that point in the draft.
- 7:17Speaker 1: For the second straight year, everything fell right to them.
- 7:21Speaker 1: And when you look to see what it was that
- 7:23Speaker 1: fell right, it was the Cowboys taking Ceedee Lamb because
- 7:26Speaker 1: Dave admitted that sitting there at twenty he was looking
- 7:30Speaker 1: at a number of wide receivers and then Lamb goes
- 7:32Speaker 1: off the board, which allows Caleb and Jason to slide
- 7:35Speaker 1: down to him. Well, I mean, that was just a
- 7:37Speaker 1: no brainer. Sometimes you do everything right and sometimes everything
- 7:41Speaker 1: happens right for you. I think that was the case.
- 7:43Speaker 1: They did the right thing and took c. J. Henderson
- 7:45Speaker 1: because that's the guy they had to have, and then
- 7:48Speaker 1: Caleb and Chason just fell right for them. And the
- 7:52Speaker 1: point of eight all weekend and I just really believe it.
- 7:55Speaker 1: They went into this draft without elite prime talent playmate
- 8:00Speaker 1: or in the secondary. They had it everywhere else. They
- 8:02Speaker 1: had Miles Jack. No matter how he's played, you can't
- 8:05Speaker 1: deny he's a guy that when he's right, makes plays
- 8:08Speaker 1: on the front. They have Alan, they now have a
- 8:10Speaker 1: Chase on but they already had a guy in Alan
- 8:13Speaker 1: who makes plays up front. They didn't really have that
- 8:16Speaker 1: in the secondary. You need elite stud guy for lack
- 8:20Speaker 1: of a better way to put it on each level
- 8:23Speaker 1: of your defense. That's what c J. Henderson is supposed
- 8:25Speaker 1: to be now. Yeah, And we're getting some questions from fans,
- 8:29Speaker 1: at least I have throughout the weekend saying what's the
- 8:31Speaker 1: expectation for c. J. Henderson coming in? And the expectation
- 8:34Speaker 1: is obviously very high being a nine overall pick, but
- 8:38Speaker 1: also you're expecting him to shut down half the field
- 8:40Speaker 1: at this point and he's gonna be your number one
- 8:42Speaker 1: corner because you don't draft someone that high if he's
- 8:44Speaker 1: not that Yeah, it's almost like people, but it's almost
- 8:51Speaker 1: like because he wasn't a Kuda and because Ramsey was
- 8:55Speaker 1: such a dynamic presence went number five. It's almost like
- 8:59Speaker 1: people fore. He went number nine overall for a cornerback.
- 9:03Speaker 1: That's really high. It's not jail And high. It's not
- 9:05Speaker 1: number five, it's not Akuda high. But those two guys
- 9:09Speaker 1: are unusually high when you take a corner in the
- 9:12Speaker 1: top ten. He's supposed to be big time push, you know,
- 9:16Speaker 1: push for all pros. He's supposed to be a lockdown stud.
- 9:19Speaker 1: That's his charge right now. Well, look, everyone wants to
- 9:23Speaker 1: make a comparison with Jalen Ramsey, and it fits. You're
- 9:25Speaker 1: replacing Ramsey essentially, and he plays the same position. However, Ramsey,
- 9:31Speaker 1: remember his pro day when we went out to Tallahassee
- 9:34Speaker 1: shoulders out to hear the long arms. He had the
- 9:37Speaker 1: physical presence on the field that few players who play
- 9:41Speaker 1: cornerback ever due, and he had the attitude for it.
- 9:45Speaker 1: What I hear about Henderson is is that the switch
- 9:47Speaker 1: flips when he goes out into the field. Not Ramsey.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Sort of provocative in the locker room, but absolutely the
- 9:53Speaker 1: guy who will play the game and talk the game
- 9:56Speaker 1: when he gets out onto the field. If you want
- 9:57Speaker 1: to make comparisons between those two guys, let's compare how
- 10:00Speaker 1: quickly the Jaguars field that he's comfortable taking the best
- 10:03Speaker 1: receiver the other team has to offer. Jalen Ramsey did
- 10:07Speaker 1: that almost impediently with DeAndre Hopkins. Now we're not gonna
- 10:11Speaker 1: be able to do the Hopkins thing because he's now
- 10:12Speaker 1: in a different division, different conference. But we'll find guy
- 10:16Speaker 1: that the tough matchup would represent, and if they feel
- 10:19Speaker 1: comfortable putting him out there, it tells you what they
- 10:21Speaker 1: think of C. J. Henderson. Absolutely, let's go to Day two.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Laviska Chanal and David and David Hamilton's sorry, Laviska chal
- 10:31Speaker 1: someone when you're looking at that wide receiver. Dave Calla
- 10:33Speaker 1: was telling us that they've been scouting him now for
- 10:35Speaker 1: two years. A guy we really didn't know much about.
- 10:38Speaker 1: But then when you see his highlight tape and all
- 10:40Speaker 1: this year, like wow, what a great get. But before
- 10:42Speaker 1: this we really didn't hear much about him. Well, I
- 10:45Speaker 1: had watched him for two years because I watched West
- 10:47Speaker 1: Coast football that's, you know, my neck of the woods
- 10:49Speaker 1: and and Colorado in particular, because I have some friends
- 10:52Speaker 1: that work in the athletic department out there, and they
- 10:54Speaker 1: were talking about this kid, and I watched him as
- 10:57Speaker 1: a sophomore and thought, Wow, I mean, this is a
- 10:59Speaker 1: guy who would get consideration top two, top three picks
- 11:03Speaker 1: in the draft. He's that explosive five rushing touchdowns to
- 11:07Speaker 1: go with six receiving touchdowns. When do you hear about
- 11:09Speaker 1: that from a number one receiver? You don't. The guy
- 11:12Speaker 1: is a tremendous player. He's a matchup, he's a he's
- 11:15Speaker 1: a I'm not a chess player, but he's a rook
- 11:19Speaker 1: What is he? John? I mean, you're a chess player.
- 11:22Speaker 1: He's a bishop. He's a he's a bishop in the
- 11:24Speaker 1: game of chess because he wouldn't be as he'd be
- 11:30Speaker 1: he'd be a He'd be a bishop because you can
- 11:33Speaker 1: do so many different things with him. Uh. He's a
- 11:36Speaker 1: tremendous player. And he's big, he's fast, he's smart, he's tough,
- 11:41Speaker 1: maybe too tough that maybe the knock on him is
- 11:43Speaker 1: that he plays such a physical style that he's been
- 11:46Speaker 1: unable to stay on the field and cost him a
- 11:48Speaker 1: draft position in twenty nineteen. Well, he's certainly got a
- 11:53Speaker 1: unique style of game. And in discussing this every the weekend,
- 11:57Speaker 1: I sort of brought Justin Blackman up again, which who
- 12:00Speaker 1: was a physical guy who when he got the ball
- 12:02Speaker 1: in his hands. There were times he just looked like
- 12:04Speaker 1: a different level of man out there. You get the idea,
- 12:08Speaker 1: with the way this kid plays, that could be what
- 12:10Speaker 1: we're looking at. He is certainly a dynamic playmaker as
- 12:13Speaker 1: highly as they regarded him. You know, they did this
- 12:17Speaker 1: in a couple of spots. They went after some guys
- 12:19Speaker 1: who've been injured in college. Then maybe that's why they
- 12:21Speaker 1: slipped a little bit. That's a little bit of a
- 12:23Speaker 1: gamble if if they continue to be injured. But this
- 12:26Speaker 1: is a guy that they believed, had he come out healthy,
- 12:29Speaker 1: had all been equal, he's probably a top fifteen receiver.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Uh if you think about it, they could be looking
- 12:36Speaker 1: at bookends on defense and Alan and Chase on and
- 12:41Speaker 1: it could be looking at bookends at the wide receiver position,
- 12:44Speaker 1: does what you call it, but and Clark and uh Chanl.
- 12:48Speaker 1: So maybe they've got their guys at a couple of
- 12:51Speaker 1: spots where it's hard to find your guys. I have
- 12:53Speaker 1: to interrupt your just to make the point. We talked
- 12:55Speaker 1: about five premium positions. Quarterback, offensive tackle, wide receiver, pastoral
- 13:00Speaker 1: sure in corner first three picks, the drag Wars grabbed
- 13:02Speaker 1: three premium positions that needed to be filled. That's a
- 13:06Speaker 1: really good start to a draft. Absolutely, And then you
- 13:10Speaker 1: go into Day three quickly guys eight picks there, and
- 13:13Speaker 1: I think that's we talked about that's the favorite day
- 13:16Speaker 1: to cover because they're always emotionally you never really know
- 13:17Speaker 1: where they're going to get drafted. But you look at
- 13:19Speaker 1: Day three, in those eight picks, it's the same three
- 13:22Speaker 1: check in boxes, getting depth, special teams. Then you look
- 13:25Speaker 1: at the twelve across the board, basically everything is addressed. Yeah,
- 13:30Speaker 1: I think I, like everybody was shocked that they went chalk.
- 13:35Speaker 1: When I say they went chalk, that they didn't trade anything,
- 13:38Speaker 1: They didn't tradeing back the same picks that they had
- 13:41Speaker 1: going in where they came out with. I don't think
- 13:43Speaker 1: anybody would have bet that, but it was clear from
- 13:47Speaker 1: listening to Caldwell talk on Friday and then against that
- 13:49Speaker 1: and I asked him that was their plan. They felt
- 13:52Speaker 1: like this was an unusually deep draft and that to
- 13:55Speaker 1: give away equity in that to come away with ten players,
- 14:00Speaker 1: give up a couple of spots at the top, it
- 14:01Speaker 1: wasn't what they wanted to do. They wanted a lot
- 14:03Speaker 1: of players. They're change in direction, and they feel like maybe,
- 14:08Speaker 1: unlike two thousand, it was days first year thirteen such
- 14:13Speaker 1: a bad draft. Well, this almost feels like a year
- 14:17Speaker 1: one type draft. It shouldn't be because in year eight,
- 14:20Speaker 1: but that feel, well, this wasn't a good draft to
- 14:24Speaker 1: have those kind of picks in. So you're changing direction again.
- 14:28Speaker 1: Twelve guys. We'll see how goes. I like a lot
- 14:31Speaker 1: of what they did on Saturday. They grabbed players. Josiah
- 14:35Speaker 1: Scott stands out, UH, Colin Johnson stands out, even Ben
- 14:39Speaker 1: Bart stands out. These are guys with traits. Remember when
- 14:43Speaker 1: you're when you're a scout and you're looking at college players,
- 14:46Speaker 1: you're not saying, well, he had a great game against USC,
- 14:49Speaker 1: and he had a great game against Oklahoma State. You're
- 14:51Speaker 1: looking to see whether or not they have traits, characteristics,
- 14:56Speaker 1: intellect that can come to the NFL level. Well Barge
- 15:00Speaker 1: has all of those things. But he didn't do it
- 15:02Speaker 1: against USC, Oklahoma State, UH Texas. He did it against Minnesota.
- 15:07Speaker 1: Intercollegiate athletic competition. You know you're not gonna watch St.
- 15:10Speaker 1: John's take on St. Thomas. That's a game on the schedule,
- 15:15Speaker 1: but you're not going to watch that so you're looking
- 15:17Speaker 1: at a guy and trying to interpret whether he can
- 15:19Speaker 1: play in the NFL. Everything about him says he can.
- 15:22Speaker 1: It's just a matter of how long will it take
- 15:24Speaker 1: him to get used to an entirely different level of competition.
- 15:28Speaker 1: You know, they've they've got guys that can three years
- 15:31Speaker 1: from now, the starters that's good on day three, absolutely
- 15:36Speaker 1: twelve draft picks later, and we are just now getting
- 15:39Speaker 1: to know the I'm going to talk much more about
- 15:41Speaker 1: this in the upcoming weeks. We come back on Jaguars
- 15:44Speaker 1: Drive time, we visit the Crystal Ball, we each pick
- 15:47Speaker 1: a draft pick and talk about in two years, who's

- 17:28Speaker 1: group called Partners of Your Jacksonville Jaguars. During this time
- 17:32Speaker 1: of uncertainty, the team at Florida I Specialists is prioritizing
- 17:36Speaker 1: the safety of their patients, staff, and community. Florida Eye
- 17:39Speaker 1: Specialists is monitoring the progression of the coronavirus daily and
- 17:42Speaker 1: has temporarily closed all offices. Although their office hours have
- 17:45Speaker 1: been affected, their commitment to the community has not. Old
- 17:49Speaker 1: Cities Best Eye Care Practice will continue to staff on
- 17:52Speaker 1: call doctors for any patients who have urgent or emergency
- 17:56Speaker 1: high care needs called Florida I Specialists at nine oh
- 17:59Speaker 1: four five six four. The Congret and Pen farm is
- 18:12Speaker 1: closed until further noticed that you can still order products
- 18:15Speaker 1: the Concrete and Pen online shop. Visit the Congree and
- 18:18Speaker 1: Pen website for more information. Everybody went b listing. I
- 18:24Speaker 1: couldn't believe in myself, so safe to say they might
- 18:28Speaker 1: be coming to do a few home games. Safe to say,
- 18:30Speaker 1: you know, if the if the prices aren't too bad.
- 18:33Speaker 1: The oak Leaf High School alumni is coming back home,
- 18:38Speaker 1: safe to say, him and his family will be at
- 18:41Speaker 1: a few home games that were definitely amped up for
- 18:43Speaker 1: shock Cordman to stay here in Jacksonville. As we are
- 18:46Speaker 1: back on Jaguar's Drive time, we're picking three draft picks,
- 18:50Speaker 1: looking at the crystal ball and similar to I would
- 18:53Speaker 1: say d J. Chark this season, looking back at his
- 18:56Speaker 1: draft class and saying that guy stands out what a
- 19:00Speaker 1: great pick he was. We're going two years in the future.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Let's look here, Brian, who do you have? I'm going
- 19:07Speaker 1: with chat. I've been watching him for two years and
- 19:10Speaker 1: I have been um interested, amazed, encouraged, enthusiastic about this kid.
- 19:17Speaker 1: Every time he gets the ball in his hands, it
- 19:18Speaker 1: seems like he's making something happen. And I really liked it.
- 19:21Speaker 1: When we were talking the other evening with Mark Ellens
- 19:24Speaker 1: and he said, we'll give him the ball on a
- 19:25Speaker 1: jet sweep. We'll do a bubble screen, you know, We'll
- 19:28Speaker 1: send him deep, will send him over in the middle. Um.
- 19:31Speaker 1: He compared himself the other day to Julio Jones, Jarvis Landry,
- 19:36Speaker 1: and Larry Fitzgerald. Okay, young players loved. You know, here's
- 19:40Speaker 1: who I am and and why not I mean, why
- 19:42Speaker 1: not shooting Don Hudson taken Brian. I've never heard anyone
- 19:49Speaker 1: compare themselves to Don Hudson. Um. But but but maybe
- 19:53Speaker 1: some guy should. The one guy that he reminds me
- 19:56Speaker 1: of when he plays is Larry Fitzgerald, because Larry is
- 19:59Speaker 1: not the fastest receiver on the field, yet Larry's always open.
- 20:04Speaker 1: When the ball is in Larry's hands, you see that
- 20:06Speaker 1: there's somewhere for him to go. You see that there's
- 20:09Speaker 1: a play that he can make, whether it's a long play,
- 20:12Speaker 1: a middle play, coming out of the backfield. Larry Fitzgerald
- 20:16Speaker 1: with a ball in his hands is a guy who's scary.
- 20:18Speaker 1: And in that same way I think China Alta is.
- 20:21Speaker 1: I think the guy's got potential to be a star.
- 20:23Speaker 1: And I think two years from now we'll be going, Wow,
- 20:25Speaker 1: how lucky were they that he was there at forty two. Yeah.
- 20:30Speaker 1: Definitely eludes confidence when you talk to him, and he
- 20:33Speaker 1: made it known when he was talking about the comparisons
- 20:35Speaker 1: between the three Larry Fitzgerald and Jarvis Slandry and all that.
- 20:37Speaker 1: He said, Now, I don't want to come across its cocky,
- 20:40Speaker 1: but I just know I compare myself to them and
- 20:42Speaker 1: I'm pretty good, so definitely confident, not cocky. But I
- 20:44Speaker 1: thought it was funny that he had to make it known.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Don't take this the wrong way, this comparison. All right, John,
- 20:51Speaker 1: who do you got? Well, I'll thank you behind the
- 20:53Speaker 1: curtain a little bit. I slept late Monday, so when
- 20:57Speaker 1: we were playing the show, Slim got quarterman. That's where
- 21:00Speaker 1: who I was going to go with. But so good
- 21:02Speaker 1: for you to get up. Um. I went with Hamilton's
- 21:05Speaker 1: Don Hamilton's simply because uh, and we're gonna go with
- 21:10Speaker 1: the two first round picks because they're so obvious, and
- 21:12Speaker 1: I think people really haven't thought that much about what
- 21:15Speaker 1: this kid could mean to the defense. He's a key point.
- 21:19Speaker 1: He's I don't know that he's going to be the
- 21:21Speaker 1: penetrating guy that maybe a dry Brown would have been.
- 21:23Speaker 1: I hate to keep bringing his name up, but he
- 21:25Speaker 1: was gonna be talked so much before the draft. But
- 21:27Speaker 1: if he's the space eater, if he's the guy they
- 21:30Speaker 1: think he can be, they took him in the third round,
- 21:32Speaker 1: which for a space seating defensive tackle usually you go
- 21:36Speaker 1: after your prime defensive tackles in the first round. Theory
- 21:39Speaker 1: being if you want them, they're gonna be gone because
- 21:41Speaker 1: it's such a hard position to find. But this guy
- 21:44Speaker 1: is intriguing because he didn't get on the field at
- 21:46Speaker 1: Ohio State until his senior year, so a lot of
- 21:50Speaker 1: teams probably didn't know much about him, but they said
- 21:53Speaker 1: he got better and better and better this year. He
- 21:56Speaker 1: clearly wants to be there. To me, he's crucial, and
- 22:00Speaker 1: you just end a feeling sometimes these lower round defensive
- 22:02Speaker 1: tackles they come out of nowhere and they're not sat guys,
- 22:06Speaker 1: but there are guys who wind up making Pro Bowls
- 22:09Speaker 1: or elite for a long time. He feels like that
- 22:12Speaker 1: to me. Hopefully he can do that for the sake
- 22:14Speaker 1: of his defense. Here's why I think that's right on,
- 22:17Speaker 1: because in two years Al Woods will be gone, uh,
- 22:20Speaker 1: Avery Jones will be gone, Rodney Gunter may be gone,
- 22:23Speaker 1: who knows uh. And Tavin Brian will either prove himself
- 22:27Speaker 1: over the next two years or he'll be gone as well.
- 22:29Speaker 1: So you gotta hit on a guy, and everything that
- 22:32Speaker 1: I've heard about this kid from Ohio State is he's
- 22:35Speaker 1: as good as he looks. And what they want him
- 22:37Speaker 1: to do, he does very very well. He was just
- 22:39Speaker 1: overshadowed by all those stars on that defense. That's an
- 22:43Speaker 1: important pay. It got overlooked a little bit on the weekend,
- 22:45Speaker 1: even by me. I thank us, because everybody's talking about
- 22:49Speaker 1: end and then it was it was Friday. He got
- 22:53Speaker 1: picked later everybody was writing Chinal because that's what you
- 22:55Speaker 1: do earlier in the night. So he almost got overlooked
- 22:58Speaker 1: with it. But that's a huge third round equity for that.
- 23:02Speaker 1: I don't know. If you expect him to start, you
- 23:04Speaker 1: expect him to matter quickly, and they need him to
- 23:07Speaker 1: matter quickly. Yeah, they couldn't help. The coaching staff couldn't help,
- 23:10Speaker 1: but bring up Marcel Darius in The impact we saw
- 23:13Speaker 1: when Darius left the field that position is huge, and
- 23:15Speaker 1: I agree the pick itself got overlooked, but his impact
- 23:19Speaker 1: come August, when this football season starts, hopefully, I think
- 23:22Speaker 1: it's definitely gonna be seen, especially without Marcel Dargus. All right, John,
- 23:26Speaker 1: now I'm gonna go with my pick because I stole
- 23:28Speaker 1: your pick, but it's a great pick. Chack quarterman linebacker
- 23:32Speaker 1: out of Miami by far, one of my favorite interviews
- 23:34Speaker 1: of the weekend because I was just blown away by
- 23:37Speaker 1: his leadership, ability, his maturity, how he handled himself. Mark
- 23:41Speaker 1: Ellen said he has an alpha dog personality on and
- 23:44Speaker 1: off the field. Definitely saw that right away. A four
- 23:47Speaker 1: year starter at middle linebacker at a program like Miami
- 23:50Speaker 1: to go in and start at middle linebacker with a
- 23:53Speaker 1: team like the Hurricanes definitely stands out to me. Three
- 23:56Speaker 1: hundred and fifty six tackles and four years to go
- 23:58Speaker 1: along with twelve sacks. We talk about linebacker and the
- 24:02Speaker 1: depth that he's going to provide and how that was
- 24:03Speaker 1: a major concern last year, especially with injuries. But I
- 24:06Speaker 1: think come next year when we talk about Shack Corterman,
- 24:09Speaker 1: we're not going to talk about the depth there. We're
- 24:12Speaker 1: gonna talk about him possibly being a linebacker starter depending
- 24:15Speaker 1: on what goes out with Joe Schobert. But man, he
- 24:17Speaker 1: stands out his confidence alone, staid out this weekend. We'll
- 24:23Speaker 1: get to this in a few minutes, but drafting him
- 24:27Speaker 1: and having shober on the field makes me wonder about
- 24:30Speaker 1: a three or four Brian because this kid is gonna
- 24:33Speaker 1: is gonna play inside, he can play middle. I know
- 24:36Speaker 1: they're gonna show that scheme more, but all of a sudden,
- 24:40Speaker 1: the personnel starts lining up a little more towards that.
- 24:43Speaker 1: I haven't talked about about that specifically. I doubt they'll
- 24:46Speaker 1: say anything about that because I think they want to
- 24:48Speaker 1: They want their scheme to be kept secret. But Schobert,
- 24:54Speaker 1: this kid, if he's for real, does make you wonder
- 24:57Speaker 1: if they can package that going forward. You know who
- 25:00Speaker 1: you reminded me of the way that he talked, the
- 25:02Speaker 1: way that he played at Miami was a linebacker from
- 25:05Speaker 1: a small school named Jeremiah Trotter who played it seems
- 25:09Speaker 1: like forever ago for Philadelphia, but a big wide body
- 25:13Speaker 1: who filled gaps and set the tone as good as
- 25:16Speaker 1: the talent was on defense for those Eagles teams he
- 25:18Speaker 1: played on. He was the tone and the tempos that
- 25:21Speaker 1: are I totally agree with you. A guy like that
- 25:23Speaker 1: you want on the field. Now. He's not an every
- 25:25Speaker 1: down linebacker in a four three, but in a three
- 25:28Speaker 1: four you might be definitely something we'll talk more about.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Interesting to see how it plays out, and that is
- 25:35Speaker 1: our crystal ball. We'll see if we're correct in two years,
- 25:38Speaker 1: will play this back. Maybe John will be the winner.
- 25:41Speaker 1: We shall see. We come back with the ozone mail bag.

- 28:13Speaker 1: we've just got a great match of these twelve players,
- 28:16Speaker 1: of a match of you know, really good talent, really
- 28:19Speaker 1: good potential and also obviously come from good foundations and
- 28:24Speaker 1: good character, and really not a lot of a lot
- 28:27Speaker 1: of stuff going around around them except the football that's done.
- 28:30Speaker 1: Rown moments after the draft had ended, twelve draft picks,
- 28:35Speaker 1: and the thing that stands out to me definitely, guys,
- 28:37Speaker 1: when you look at this draft class, this seems like
- 28:39Speaker 1: every single pick was either a team captain or involved
- 28:43Speaker 1: in something really good off the field. It's obvious the
- 28:46Speaker 1: high character was an emphasis this year, but I think
- 28:49Speaker 1: dug Rown also doesn't want us to forget they're good
- 28:51Speaker 1: football players too. Let's not forget that. You know, when
- 28:54Speaker 1: the whole Jalen Ramsey thing was going down last year,
- 28:58Speaker 1: I asked John D. Philippo clip, how would this go
- 29:02Speaker 1: down in Philly? You know, they're the defending Super Bowl
- 29:06Speaker 1: champs from a couple of years ago. How does this
- 29:07Speaker 1: play out in the Eagles locker room, he says, the
- 29:10Speaker 1: players take care of it. The players would have solved
- 29:13Speaker 1: the problem for the Eagles front office. They didn't have
- 29:17Speaker 1: the guys in there. I know everyone wants to point
- 29:19Speaker 1: to Calais um and and Calais was such a tremendous
- 29:22Speaker 1: human being, um, but they apparently did not have the
- 29:25Speaker 1: players in the locker room to change the direction of
- 29:28Speaker 1: the way that last season went. Um. It sounds like
- 29:32Speaker 1: Doug and Dave recognized that and decided twelve draft choices,
- 29:36Speaker 1: this will help us change it. Well, you're allowed to
- 29:40Speaker 1: be a good player and a good person. I'm not
- 29:42Speaker 1: sure when that became. Fans didn't think that both of
- 29:46Speaker 1: them could do, But to me, it's clear that you
- 29:50Speaker 1: can be. Because of this. All youet is look in
- 29:52Speaker 1: the locker room. John Taylor, Josh Allen, and DJ tark
- 29:58Speaker 1: I've been saying all of the season, doesn't that feel
- 30:01Speaker 1: like your first wave of core and and they're all
- 30:05Speaker 1: three guys that it's clear like being here, like they
- 30:11Speaker 1: want to be in the locker room, all that stuff,
- 30:13Speaker 1: you know, after the season on never you get this
- 30:15Speaker 1: to day after the season. Josh Allen hung around in
- 30:18Speaker 1: pr until like five o'clock in the afternoon instead of
- 30:21Speaker 1: getting out. Well, you know, he wasn't his his car
- 30:26Speaker 1: wasn't ready to go, he wasn't ready to be doing football.
- 30:28Speaker 1: Yet he didn't mind talking to people that he ordinarily
- 30:31Speaker 1: wouldn't see. So you know, then that's not everything, but
- 30:36Speaker 1: there's something to that. And I think I think DJ
- 30:38Speaker 1: and Jowan are both the same kind of guys. I
- 30:40Speaker 1: think they want more guys like that. They don't have
- 30:42Speaker 1: them all. But again, we talked about it before, Brian,
- 30:45Speaker 1: this team's going in a new direction, and if you're
- 30:48Speaker 1: gonna go in a new direction, why not go in
- 30:49Speaker 1: that direction? Yeah, without a doubt. And it's it's worth
- 30:53Speaker 1: pointing out that the guys that you mentioned last year
- 30:56Speaker 1: could not have stepped up, and they had, they hadn't
- 31:01Speaker 1: done it on the field yet, and none of these
- 31:03Speaker 1: guys coming in will be able to do it until
- 31:05Speaker 1: they prove it on the field. But what you said
- 31:08Speaker 1: with Chark and Juwan Taylor and Josh Allen, you've got
- 31:12Speaker 1: a core of guys now that can lead them in
- 31:14Speaker 1: the right direction and and have it be a tidal
- 31:17Speaker 1: wave instead of a trickle. Yeah, absolutely, it's very obvious
- 31:21Speaker 1: that was emphasis this year. All right, let's visit the
- 31:23Speaker 1: own mail back. So let's go down the street to say,
- 31:32Speaker 1: Augustine another John, did we wait too long to draft
- 31:36Speaker 1: defensive tackle and offensive line? Both seem like we settled John? Yeah,
- 31:42Speaker 1: and I'm not true why there was that impression. I
- 31:45Speaker 1: got the email sorts from a couple of different people. Um,
- 31:48Speaker 1: there was some unrest or some criticism of Dave for
- 31:52Speaker 1: not trading up in those spots and getting maybe a
- 31:55Speaker 1: better known guy. And I guess thing I keep going
- 31:57Speaker 1: back to is there's so much analysis before the draft
- 32:02Speaker 1: that starts becoming common think, meaning some analyst sees Daniel
- 32:08Speaker 1: Jeremiah say something, and then jeremiacy is Bucky Brooks say something,
- 32:12Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, everybody's got a consensus
- 32:14Speaker 1: built on who the guys are and what the lists are. Well,
- 32:19Speaker 1: teams are completely different. So I don't think in the
- 32:21Speaker 1: Jaguar's mind they're waiting. Plus, say Ben Bart, well, they
- 32:26Speaker 1: weren't or bad example, Yeah, Ben Bart, at that point,
- 32:31Speaker 1: they weren't trying to get a guy to come in
- 32:33Speaker 1: right away. They wanted that sort of offensive lineman in
- 32:37Speaker 1: the fourth round. So did they wait too long? You know,
- 32:40Speaker 1: is he gonna come in and start. No, But at
- 32:43Speaker 1: that point in the draft they had clearly said we're
- 32:45Speaker 1: not gonna want that kind of offensive lineman. We're going
- 32:48Speaker 1: after this development. So I didn't get the feeling talking
- 32:51Speaker 1: today that they feel like they missed or waited or
- 32:53Speaker 1: any of this. This was the plan and they feel
- 32:56Speaker 1: like they overall, looking at the overall draft class, got
- 32:59Speaker 1: the guys where they wanted it. Well, Hamilton's appears to
- 33:02Speaker 1: be a guy that fits exactly what they want to do,
- 33:04Speaker 1: so they didn't wait too long to get that. Remember,
- 33:07Speaker 1: the third round is a round where you find guys
- 33:09Speaker 1: who become key starters. Brandon Linder comes to mind right
- 33:12Speaker 1: out of the game. A J. Cann started immediately as
- 33:16Speaker 1: a rookie. So the third round is a place where
- 33:18Speaker 1: you go to find football players that can step in
- 33:21Speaker 1: and and fill the need immediately. Hamilton's looks like he's
- 33:24Speaker 1: a guy that can do that. I would say, did
- 33:26Speaker 1: they wait too long on the offensive line? My only
- 33:28Speaker 1: answer is only if they were looky to replace Cam Robinson, right,
- 33:33Speaker 1: and they have, they weren't. They were not, Uh, you know,
- 33:37Speaker 1: Andrew Norwell is a guy that, as much as I
- 33:40Speaker 1: have questioned how well he's played, they don't Lender is
- 33:44Speaker 1: a very good center a J. Cann. You know, not
- 33:48Speaker 1: every starter is going to be a star. Jowan Taylor
- 33:50Speaker 1: looks like he's going to be a star. So you'd
- 33:52Speaker 1: only be replacing the left tackle. And if they weren't
- 33:55Speaker 1: gonna if they were going to replace Cam Robinson, they
- 33:57Speaker 1: would have done it to pick nine. They would have
- 34:00Speaker 1: grabbed one of the tackles they liked the best at nine,
- 34:02Speaker 1: taking their chances on a corner in the second round instead.
- 34:05Speaker 1: But they weren't going to do that, which tells you
- 34:07Speaker 1: how committed they are to Cam Robinson. Yeah, guys, I
- 34:10Speaker 1: think at least around combines and I think we all
- 34:13Speaker 1: at least expected maybe one of the first two picks
- 34:15Speaker 1: would be offensive line. But then as the season went on,
- 34:18Speaker 1: the off season went on, and Doug Row kept talking
- 34:20Speaker 1: about Kim Robinson's improvement and how much they liked this
- 34:23Speaker 1: line overall, that slowly started backing away. Okay, maybe number
- 34:27Speaker 1: nine doesn't make sense after all. Right, right, I'm glad
- 34:33Speaker 1: you too agree. Let's stay here in Jacksonville and go
- 34:37Speaker 1: to Johnny do you agree. If local guys shot quarterman
- 34:40Speaker 1: turns out as great as its potential, our three floor
- 34:43Speaker 1: look could be really strong. Yeah. I guess we tease
- 34:47Speaker 1: this minute ago, but I absolutely think it does. And
- 34:50Speaker 1: I don't know that they'll go to it immediately. I
- 34:53Speaker 1: don't think there's any question there's going to be elements
- 34:55Speaker 1: of it in the defense next year. So many teams
- 34:58Speaker 1: Brian these days, all fans want to talk about three
- 35:02Speaker 1: or four verses for three. Well, it's always in this
- 35:06Speaker 1: Jaguar scheme to be a hybrid. You can bend it
- 35:09Speaker 1: toward the three four. You can bend it to ord
- 35:11Speaker 1: of four three. I do feel it if they can
- 35:15Speaker 1: get these guys on the field and teach it and
- 35:18Speaker 1: be ready for the season, I think the three four
- 35:21Speaker 1: could have a lot or there could be a lot
- 35:22Speaker 1: of three or four elements in it, although I don't
- 35:25Speaker 1: know what this bunch if they'll break down and call
- 35:27Speaker 1: it a three four. Teams in the late nineties that
- 35:31Speaker 1: ran the three four, the Steelers, the Eagles, the Patriots,
- 35:34Speaker 1: they all had these big, bruising um middle inside linebackers.
- 35:39Speaker 1: Earl Holmes was the guy in Pittsburgh. Jeremiah Trotter in Philadelphia,
- 35:44Speaker 1: Teddy Johnson in UM in New England, and all of
- 35:47Speaker 1: them had that that sort of no neck run downhill,
- 35:51Speaker 1: take on the guard, you know, clogged the hole, make
- 35:54Speaker 1: the tackle. Um. They weren't rushed the passer interception guys. Heck,
- 35:59Speaker 1: they weren't even forced fumble guys. But they fall on
- 36:01Speaker 1: a forced fumble here and there. So when we started
- 36:04Speaker 1: talking about this in the last segment and I mentioned
- 36:06Speaker 1: Jeremy Trotter just went, yeah, you're right, John, The three
- 36:09Speaker 1: four seems to fit because this is a guy that
- 36:11Speaker 1: if he is as good as they think he is,
- 36:14Speaker 1: you're gonna want him on the field. Fourth round is
- 36:16Speaker 1: a round where you get guys and you move them
- 36:17Speaker 1: into the lineup and find out if they can play.
- 36:22Speaker 1: Absolutely all right, let's go to Orange Park and Al
- 36:26Speaker 1: brings us home. How many fifth, six, and seventh routers
- 36:30Speaker 1: do you see making the team? Seems like the wide receiver, cornerback,
- 36:33Speaker 1: and linebacker rooms might be a little crowded right now. Yeah,
- 36:37Speaker 1: I've gotten this a lot, and I don't quite grasp
- 36:41Speaker 1: why people are so concerned about it. I've covered teams
- 36:45Speaker 1: with Tanny eleven twelve rookies on it, and I don't
- 36:48Speaker 1: even be unusual. I don't know that they all make it. Um,
- 36:51Speaker 1: my guess is you might see one or two of
- 36:53Speaker 1: these guys high priority practice squad. We can players get
- 37:00Speaker 1: hurt in the NFL, so practice squad guys, rookies, who's
- 37:07Speaker 1: who's a six round pick or a seventh can easily
- 37:10Speaker 1: be brought up. But that being said, it would not
- 37:14Speaker 1: surprise me at all with the change in direction we're
- 37:16Speaker 1: talking about all that stuff. If all twelve make it,
- 37:20Speaker 1: I guess I'd be a little surprised if it's not.
- 37:22Speaker 1: It's not at least eleven. Brian, Yeah, correct me if
- 37:25Speaker 1: I'm wrong, because it happened just about the time that
- 37:27Speaker 1: this whole pandemic started. Did they not increase the size
- 37:32Speaker 1: of NFL rosters? They did? Yes, and and and more guys,
- 37:41Speaker 1: more guys will be active on game day with Yeah,
- 37:46Speaker 1: with a bigger roster, I say all of them make it.
- 37:48Speaker 1: And remember the positions that we're talking about, tight end, cornerback,
- 37:53Speaker 1: wide receiver. Uh, these are spots where you need to
- 37:55Speaker 1: find guys, especially tight end. So I would say all
- 37:59Speaker 1: of them make it because all of them have attributes.
- 38:01Speaker 1: You know, if I was leaning towards one that might
- 38:03Speaker 1: be a little bit on the bubble. Uh, it would
- 38:05Speaker 1: be the Claypool kid from Memphis who comes in as
- 38:07Speaker 1: a converted receiver, who's a defensive back, who would have
- 38:10Speaker 1: to make the roster as a return man. Well that's
- 38:12Speaker 1: a rarity you don't find. Well, yeah, and and and
- 38:19Speaker 1: rosters now expanded roster absolutely, But you know, unless you're
- 38:22Speaker 1: Devin Hester, you generally were going to make the roster
- 38:25Speaker 1: as a return man. Only you're gonna to find a
- 38:28Speaker 1: way to be involved in other things. Um, this guy
- 38:31Speaker 1: looks to me like he's just a return man again.
- 38:33Speaker 1: Now with an expanded roster, expanded game day, you can
- 38:36Speaker 1: have him make said Dave on Saturday when he talked
- 38:40Speaker 1: about him. Uh, you got the impression listening to him
- 38:44Speaker 1: that they want him to be the guy. So can
- 38:47Speaker 1: he earn that? We'll see, But he seems to be
- 38:53Speaker 1: the guy that they want to have doing it. It's
- 38:55Speaker 1: just easier to carry a guy like that who only
- 38:57Speaker 1: does that for you. Now with the way the the
- 39:00Speaker 1: CBA lays out the new roster sizes. Sure, yeah, especially
- 39:04Speaker 1: last year you had a toss up between Michael Walker
- 39:06Speaker 1: d d Westbrook was back there at times. Really didn't
- 39:08Speaker 1: have a guy last year who was that specific trait,
- 39:11Speaker 1: so I could see that happening all right. When we
- 39:14Speaker 1: come back, we go to top tweets from the draft

- 41:46Speaker 1: last segment wrapping up the draft last week, and as
- 41:48Speaker 1: we get into some top tweets, the first is ESPN PR.
- 41:53Speaker 1: This is kind of surprising, guys. Out of the top
- 41:55Speaker 1: ten markets in the country for draft coverage and people
- 41:58Speaker 1: watching j Jacksonville is number seven. What do we think
- 42:03Speaker 1: of that? It doesn't surprise me at all. Um. You know,
- 42:06Speaker 1: back in the day, Jacksonville would post the second or
- 42:10Speaker 1: third best Monday Night football rating. Uh, when the Jaguars
- 42:13Speaker 1: were playing, and when they weren't, they were right near
- 42:16Speaker 1: the top of the league of the team of the
- 42:18Speaker 1: markets that didn't have teams playing on Monday night football.
- 42:20Speaker 1: And now, John, I'm going back to the nineties, back
- 42:23Speaker 1: when Monday Night Football's ratings were huge. But Jacksonville has
- 42:26Speaker 1: always been a football town. They like it and this
- 42:30Speaker 1: should be assigned to a lot of people out there
- 42:33Speaker 1: that they'll support this team, right, I'm talking about people
- 42:36Speaker 1: outside the Jacksonville market alright. Top tweet Number two comes
- 42:40Speaker 1: from C. J. Henderson himself. A lot of mix up
- 42:43Speaker 1: about what number he's gonna wear. Is he gonna be
- 42:46Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey's replacement? Possibly Sunday night, he tweets, by the way,
- 42:51Speaker 1: I'm not wearing. And I don't blame him at all.
- 42:54Speaker 1: He doesn't want to be the next Jalen Ramsey. He
- 42:56Speaker 1: wants to be c. J. Henderson. In order to do that,
- 42:58Speaker 1: he can't have a twenty on your back. No, And
- 43:02Speaker 1: I think it's it's fine. I don't get as hung
- 43:06Speaker 1: up in numbers as a lot of people do, but
- 43:08Speaker 1: there's not people who do that. Yeah, fine, let him
- 43:11Speaker 1: have another number, Let him look somewhere else or have
- 43:14Speaker 1: his own identity. I think even if he had warn
- 43:17Speaker 1: twenty though, Brian from from his demeanor, the way he
- 43:21Speaker 1: carries himself, I think fans are going to realize very
- 43:24Speaker 1: quickly that he's not trying to be two point out
- 43:28Speaker 1: two second version whatever it is. Two point o point two. Um,
- 43:34Speaker 1: it's worth pointing out Jalen didn't want to war twenty either,
- 43:36Speaker 1: and he wanted to yep, I do recall yikes now
- 43:42Speaker 1: that should not be named as we like to say
- 43:43Speaker 1: at this point two point o point two, all right,
- 43:47Speaker 1: let's wrap it up with Freddy t pointing this out,
- 43:50Speaker 1: bringing us back down memory lane. The last ninth pick
- 43:53Speaker 1: out of the University of Florida selected by the Jaguars
- 43:55Speaker 1: had a pretty decent career. You could say, let's go C. J. Henderson. Yeah,
- 44:02Speaker 1: I had made that connection. That's that's pretty cool. Uh.
- 44:05Speaker 1: I guess I would say that if he's half the
- 44:07Speaker 1: player Fred Taylor was, they got a good pick. M
- 44:12Speaker 1: he had a great pick. Fred Taylor's an all time Um.
- 44:15Speaker 1: This kid is exciting and he looks to me like
- 44:18Speaker 1: he's going to be a player. Uh. If he is
- 44:20Speaker 1: as good off the field as Dan Mullin said to
- 44:24Speaker 1: us on Friday night, then I think he's got a
- 44:27Speaker 1: chance to to really to to put his name next
- 44:30Speaker 1: to Fred Taylor. Maybe not in the Ring of Honor,
- 44:32Speaker 1: but as uh as former Gators who did well in
- 44:34Speaker 1: Jacksonville agreed, very high potential for him and basically this
- 44:39Speaker 1: whole entire draft class. Stay up to date on Jaguars
