- 0:29Speaker 1: love that. I really love that. I've seen that from
- 0:32Speaker 1: the room. I've seen that really is here. The Core,
- 0:40Speaker 1: the latest episode of the Hunts, which you can find
- 0:43Speaker 1: of the Jaguars YouTube channeling across social media, is outstanding.
- 0:46Speaker 1: It's thirteen minutes of heaven if you're a Jaguars fan
- 0:50Speaker 1: and taking you inside what's been going on and what
- 0:54Speaker 1: is about to start beginning here as we get set
- 0:57Speaker 1: for the offseason program to start next week the draft
- 1:00Speaker 1: A week after. Good morning and welcome to Jags Drive Time.
- 1:03Speaker 1: Brian Sexton along with J P. Shadwick, we brought the
- 1:05Speaker 1: eighteen from the Afternoon. This is what happens. You don't
- 1:09Speaker 1: really awake it this time before noon. I didn't know.
- 1:12Speaker 1: This is amazing. Yeah, it's good and everybody has a
- 1:16Speaker 1: completely sort of different They're chippy and happy in the afternoon.
- 1:18Speaker 1: In the morning before people get their coffee. What do
- 1:21Speaker 1: you want, JP, I'll tell you what I love that
- 1:24Speaker 1: Ridley bit there. He kind of tells you a whole
- 1:26Speaker 1: lot about his mindset and his excitement to be back
- 1:29Speaker 1: in the game, just to see his name on a
- 1:31Speaker 1: video board again. It's been so long, and that kind
- 1:34Speaker 1: of surprised him. Go over the Bridget. Look, I can
- 1:36Speaker 1: tell you I go back to the twenty eighteen draft
- 1:38Speaker 1: and the Jaguars, you will call, we're drafting twenty ninth
- 1:40Speaker 1: that year because they had been to the AFC title game.
- 1:43Speaker 1: And I was sitting there with Everett Sullivan Um and
- 1:47Speaker 1: our crew, right and we're waiting where you know, where
- 1:50Speaker 1: the Jaguars going to draft? Who's going to be available?
- 1:52Speaker 1: Are they even here? Will it be somewhere for us
- 1:54Speaker 1: to interview? And we got a list of players that
- 1:56Speaker 1: the Jaguars were looking at at that point, right, and
- 2:00Speaker 1: it was Hayden Hurst, the tight end Bowl school kid,
- 2:02Speaker 1: and Taven Bryan. We all know how that one turned out.
- 2:06Speaker 1: The linebacker Evans from Alabama his first name escapes me
- 2:09Speaker 1: at the moment, and then Calvin Ridley, and you know,
- 2:12Speaker 1: they just the linebacker went, the tight end went, Ridley went.
- 2:15Speaker 1: They got stuck with Tavian Brian. But it's interesting to
- 2:18Speaker 1: me to see him here now because the Jagger was
- 2:20Speaker 1: really coveted him back in twenty eighteen. They wanted that tall, long,
- 2:23Speaker 1: fast receiver and it feels like an extra first round
- 2:26Speaker 1: pick this year. And those are obviously a different decision
- 2:29Speaker 1: making group. So it tells you that the talent was there,
- 2:32Speaker 1: then the talent hopefully is still there now with a
- 2:34Speaker 1: different decision making group making that move to get him.
- 2:37Speaker 1: And you know, he's got all the motivation in the world.
- 2:39Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that one year deal. And back
- 2:42Speaker 1: in Florida, come on, let's go, all right, So let's
- 2:45Speaker 1: go with this thing we call big things right off
- 2:47Speaker 1: the top, they're pretty generic today as we get within
- 2:49Speaker 1: about two and a half weeks of the draft. But
- 2:51Speaker 1: big thing one is who's number one. You look at
- 2:54Speaker 1: the mock drafts we do as well. You try to
- 2:56Speaker 1: figure out which ones are credible, who has some inside information,
- 2:59Speaker 1: and there is this debate going on about who's number one.
- 3:03Speaker 1: We'll get JP's thoughts on that big thing. Two, who's
- 3:07Speaker 1: coming up? Right, And normally when we're talking about who's
- 3:11Speaker 1: coming up, it's who's climbing the board, which players after
- 3:14Speaker 1: the interview process and the combine and their pro day
- 3:18Speaker 1: workouts on campus. Who's climbing the board? We've got some
- 3:22Speaker 1: thoughts on that. But which teams might be looking to
- 3:25Speaker 1: come up? Draft capital is no longer what it was.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Teams are willing to gamble, to make aggressive moves in
- 3:33Speaker 1: the first round to go and get the guys they want.
- 3:35Speaker 1: They're not as hesitant as they were ten or even
- 3:37Speaker 1: twenty years ago. We'll talk about names who might be
- 3:40Speaker 1: coming up the board and who might they be coming
- 3:42Speaker 1: to get. And finally, big thing three, where's the first run?
- 3:46Speaker 1: I mean, I think we all know quarterback is going
- 3:48Speaker 1: to be that run right out of the gate. It's
- 3:50Speaker 1: the value position. And there are some names might be overdrafted.
- 3:53Speaker 1: That happens all the time. But what are the other
- 3:55Speaker 1: spots that might be grabbing team's interests and they want
- 3:59Speaker 1: to go get their guy before all the guys that
- 4:02Speaker 1: at least belong in the first round are gone. So
- 4:06Speaker 1: those are the topics, and there are many others. When
- 4:07Speaker 1: we're talking about the draft this year, let's start with
- 4:11Speaker 1: who's number one? Now, all things being equal, yes, you
- 4:15Speaker 1: do have a vested interest in one guy. I well,
- 4:18Speaker 1: not really, but you're an Alabama guy, right, I mean
- 4:21Speaker 1: I know the program inside out, and it's been a
- 4:24Speaker 1: while since I've been there. Okay, I'm not trying to
- 4:26Speaker 1: sell your credibility short JP. I'm just saying we know
- 4:29Speaker 1: that when Alabama loses a national championship game, you might
- 4:31Speaker 1: not be happy for what an hour? Okay? And then
- 4:34Speaker 1: I go to work to night when the sun rises
- 4:36Speaker 1: in the east, I don't get a ring. It does
- 4:39Speaker 1: happen to you, doesn't it. It happens when you work
- 4:41Speaker 1: in sports. Over time, it happens. But Bryce Young is
- 4:43Speaker 1: a guy. You've seen all the great players who have
- 4:45Speaker 1: come through Alabama, you at least look at it close
- 4:48Speaker 1: enough to know those guys. And this is He's not
- 4:51Speaker 1: the biggest, he's doesn't have the biggest arm. It might
- 4:54Speaker 1: not be the fastest, but this guy has been a
- 4:56Speaker 1: winner par excellence and he seems to be that guy
- 5:00Speaker 1: that fits in comfortably at number one. If height doesn't
- 5:03Speaker 1: matter to you, Yeah, not the tallest guy, maybe not
- 5:07Speaker 1: the biggest frame, but the biggest moxie I think we've
- 5:10Speaker 1: seen there in a long, long long time. He made
- 5:13Speaker 1: throws against Texas this year that I didn't I didn't
- 5:15Speaker 1: know a quarterback could make well. Then. Of course, the
- 5:17Speaker 1: year before that, they're in the Iron Bowl at Auburn,
- 5:20Speaker 1: no time out, it's their own three yard line. They
- 5:22Speaker 1: have to go the field to get a touchdown to
- 5:24Speaker 1: send it to overtime, and they do it. They can
- 5:27Speaker 1: burn on a fourth down, he's thrown a backup is starting,
- 5:30Speaker 1: Jameson Williams out of the game. He got ejected. So
- 5:32Speaker 1: he finds a freshman wide receiver for a touchdown and
- 5:37Speaker 1: they go to four overtimes and win on the road.
- 5:39Speaker 1: And he's done that a few times in his career,
- 5:41Speaker 1: where they're back against the wall, they somehow get down
- 5:44Speaker 1: the field. He's making unbelievable throws. He has the ability
- 5:47Speaker 1: to move and create some extra time. He's not necessarily
- 5:51Speaker 1: a runner first, that's not his style. He's you know,
- 5:54Speaker 1: not that, but he can make that extra time and then,
- 5:58Speaker 1: you know, make a throw that you just can't believe.
- 6:01Speaker 1: So he's got his head on his shoulders. He's a
- 6:03Speaker 1: smart guy. And you know, you mentioned earlier that you
- 6:07Speaker 1: know a lot of teams have been kind of talking
- 6:09Speaker 1: to him and have set him down. And I could
- 6:12Speaker 1: see in that environment where Bryce Young can wow you
- 6:15Speaker 1: in an interview session, because if you have time with
- 6:17Speaker 1: him to sit down and he can talk through the
- 6:19Speaker 1: game with you and do all that, he can wow
- 6:21Speaker 1: some teams in that way well, and teams go deep. Now,
- 6:24Speaker 1: especially when you're talking a guy that you're going to
- 6:26Speaker 1: put a ton of money into besides the draft capital,
- 6:30Speaker 1: and that you're going to try to build a franchise
- 6:32Speaker 1: around for the next couple of years. They went Apparently
- 6:34Speaker 1: the Tepper family spent time with him and his family
- 6:38Speaker 1: in Tuscaloosa for Pro Day. They don't there's no stone
- 6:43Speaker 1: they won't overturn to find out every little bit of
- 6:46Speaker 1: information about especially a quarterback, but about a guy that
- 6:49Speaker 1: you're going to try to craft your franchise around and
- 6:52Speaker 1: build the pieces around for the next couple of years. Now,
- 6:54Speaker 1: you mentioned something Jamison Williams was out of the game.
- 6:58Speaker 1: He's had a lot of star performers there. But they
- 7:00Speaker 1: don't when they talk about c. J. Stroud. The word
- 7:03Speaker 1: on CJ. Stroud is he had an A plus cast
- 7:06Speaker 1: of character. It was unbelievable, right, I mean the wide
- 7:08Speaker 1: receivers last two seasons ago, now's Garrett Wilson, Olave and
- 7:12Speaker 1: Jackson Smith and Jigma and there are kids that are
- 7:15Speaker 1: coming up Marvin Harrison junior, and I forget the name
- 7:17Speaker 1: of the other kid who's coming up behind it. They
- 7:20Speaker 1: are loaded and stacked. They don't say that about Bryce Young,
- 7:22Speaker 1: which I find interesting because Young had an excellent cast
- 7:26Speaker 1: of character. I mean, the talent at Alabama has been
- 7:28Speaker 1: as good the draft proves it out as any over
- 7:31Speaker 1: the last couple of years. But when they talk about Young,
- 7:34Speaker 1: it's not, well, Okay, you gotta look and see because
- 7:36Speaker 1: he played with the Jamison Williams of the world. You
- 7:39Speaker 1: know the great players they talk about That was CJ. Strout. Yeah,
- 7:43Speaker 1: I think in Ohio State, Stroud has they've had more
- 7:47Speaker 1: of a consistent draft, not draft recruit and developed system.
- 7:51Speaker 1: They're not bringing in wide receivers that have transferred in.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Those guys were recruited there and have stayed buck Eyes
- 7:57Speaker 1: and have moved on up. Williams was Ohio State and
- 8:01Speaker 1: couldn't play and then had to transfer in and had
- 8:03Speaker 1: the one year at Alabama and went off and won
- 8:05Speaker 1: the Bullet nic Off and everything that went with that.
- 8:07Speaker 1: So they've had some different kind of building of that
- 8:10Speaker 1: team in Tuscaloos. So then then they may have had
- 8:13Speaker 1: at Ohio State at the skill positions now, running backs
- 8:15Speaker 1: a little different at Alabama they've developed those guys over
- 8:18Speaker 1: the years and have rolled through there. But at wide receiver,
- 8:21Speaker 1: you've seen some different pieces pop in there. If you
- 8:24Speaker 1: like size, Stroud's got it. There's a lot to like
- 8:28Speaker 1: about him. Not a knock on him that he played
- 8:30Speaker 1: with such great players because he played really well against
- 8:32Speaker 1: Georgia could call the national semifinal game. Yeah, now you're
- 8:35Speaker 1: not gonna see him, you know, run around. That's not
- 8:37Speaker 1: his game at all. He's a he's not a scrambler.
- 8:41Speaker 1: He's not a run first guy. He's a stand back,
- 8:43Speaker 1: pocket quarterback. And we're gonna get to the offensive line
- 8:46Speaker 1: a little bit later. I mean, when you have that
- 8:48Speaker 1: group up front, you have some time to make decisions,
- 8:51Speaker 1: go through progressions, and then make a pinpoint throw, which
- 8:54Speaker 1: he can do when he has the time. He doesn't
- 8:56Speaker 1: really miss down the field. And you know, you got
- 8:59Speaker 1: star guys running routes like they do at Ohio State.
- 9:02Speaker 1: That helps, But he has that ability to really stand
- 9:05Speaker 1: in there and make a big throw. It's hard to
- 9:07Speaker 1: see how these guys aren't one in two. I mean,
- 9:09Speaker 1: unless the Texans are willing to. So this is the
- 9:11Speaker 1: back and wait and find something different. So I just
- 9:13Speaker 1: thought about this and I saw it on something on
- 9:16Speaker 1: social media yesterday and I think Ryan Leaf said it,
- 9:20Speaker 1: and I think he said that he stole it from somebody,
- 9:23Speaker 1: But it made a lot of sense now that I've
- 9:25Speaker 1: thought through it. All. Right, So let's say Bryce Young's
- 9:27Speaker 1: number one. Yeah, the Texans are number two? Right? Sure?
- 9:31Speaker 1: The agent for CJ. Stroud David Mullighetta. Who is Deshaun
- 9:36Speaker 1: Watson's agent? Do the Texans want to deal with that? Again? Well,
- 9:40Speaker 1: that's a big question, And I thought Ryan made a
- 9:42Speaker 1: really good point. I don't if you're an organization in
- 9:45Speaker 1: the Texans, do you really want to go through all that? Again? Well,
- 9:48Speaker 1: I know they look at things like that, right. There
- 9:50Speaker 1: are some clubs that have great relationships. But back in
- 9:53Speaker 1: the nineties and the early two thousands, it was du Rosenhouse.
- 9:55Speaker 1: I mean, he was David Mulghetta. He was the big name,
- 9:58Speaker 1: and there were some franchises that just they struggled with
- 10:01Speaker 1: him because of his brash South Florida personality. But everybody
- 10:05Speaker 1: learned to get along with it better because he was
- 10:08Speaker 1: a powerful force among players, and if you wanted one
- 10:12Speaker 1: of these guys, you were going to deal with your Rosenhouse.
- 10:14Speaker 1: So my sense is is that they could find a
- 10:17Speaker 1: way to if they love the talent. But you know,
- 10:20Speaker 1: the word is is that you know, they've got another
- 10:22Speaker 1: pick coming up at eleven, so perhaps they're willing to
- 10:25Speaker 1: move around a little bit and wait on the quarterback.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Next year is a good year for it as well.
- 10:29Speaker 1: This is not a playoff year for these guys. It's
- 10:31Speaker 1: you know, it's the first year with a new coach,
- 10:33Speaker 1: may defensive minded head coach, right, and maybe maybe Will Anderson, Oh,
- 10:36Speaker 1: another Alabama guy is tough to pass on. But I
- 10:40Speaker 1: think if Stroud goes and Bryce Young goes, now now
- 10:44Speaker 1: we start to get interesting, which brings us a big
- 10:45Speaker 1: thing too, right, and that is who's coming up? And
- 10:48Speaker 1: for whom are you coming up for quarterbacks? Well, the
- 10:52Speaker 1: Panthers have already come up for a quarterback, right, so
- 10:55Speaker 1: that's done. We're assuming that they're doing it. But are
- 10:57Speaker 1: the Colts coming up to see that they can get
- 10:59Speaker 1: their guy, whether it's Anthony Richardson or Will Levis or
- 11:03Speaker 1: are both of those guys a little bit? And you
- 11:05Speaker 1: know how this one goes. Now, you look at all
- 11:07Speaker 1: the mock drafts and you read everything, you talk to
- 11:09Speaker 1: people around the league. No one knows for sure how
- 11:11Speaker 1: these guys are valued, and so maybe those guys are
- 11:14Speaker 1: a little bit oversold. Maybe someone's coming up for Jalen Carter.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Maybe maybe someone's willing to take a chance on that
- 11:20Speaker 1: who might be the best player in the draft, and
- 11:22Speaker 1: they don't want to pass on it because there's not
- 11:24Speaker 1: many defensive tackles, and considering everything that has happened off
- 11:26Speaker 1: the field recently with him, and maybe he slides a
- 11:29Speaker 1: little bit. And if that begins, who makes the run
- 11:31Speaker 1: and who's willing to deal with some of that or
- 11:34Speaker 1: is that even a big deal to anybody? That's a
- 11:36Speaker 1: great question, because yeah, I think last year, two years ago,
- 11:40Speaker 1: he was probably the best defensive lineman on that team,
- 11:43Speaker 1: right when all those guys came out after the first championship,
- 11:47Speaker 1: and he's said another year of seasoning in college to
- 11:49Speaker 1: go with that. Now, I think people might be scared
- 11:51Speaker 1: away a little bit from his pro day. I mean,
- 11:53Speaker 1: he had to quit early, wasn't really into it all that.
- 11:56Speaker 1: All the reports from Mathen's were that that he couldn't
- 11:59Speaker 1: finish drills. And that's on top of everything that happened
- 12:03Speaker 1: with the racing incident so um that he claims was
- 12:06Speaker 1: not racing. Of course. You know where he's from high
- 12:09Speaker 1: school a Popka, same high school as Warren sapp He
- 12:13Speaker 1: had the draft day slide as well. Remember the buck
- 12:15Speaker 1: saved him. Yeah, as he as he got to the
- 12:17Speaker 1: end of the top ten there from the water down there.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Because they're both pretty du good. Well, yeah, one's a
- 12:21Speaker 1: Hall of Famer and the other guy looks like he's
- 12:23Speaker 1: got the potential to be a great NFL player. That
- 12:26Speaker 1: obviously brings us to the third of our big things,
- 12:29Speaker 1: and that is you know, where are the runs? Right?
- 12:32Speaker 1: So we talked about quarterback and quarterbacks obvious and here
- 12:35Speaker 1: are some positions in some names that could spark a run.
- 12:39Speaker 1: As we look at it, and right out of the gate, JP,
- 12:42Speaker 1: you see that this cornerback position could be one that
- 12:47Speaker 1: sparks it. You've got um Christian Gonzalez from Oregon who
- 12:52Speaker 1: was at Colorado. You've got Devin Witherspoon, the young man
- 12:55Speaker 1: from Illinois, Joey Porter junior with the great NFL bloodline,
- 13:00Speaker 1: and his father obviously Joey Porter who is in Pittsburgh.
- 13:03Speaker 1: And then Deante Banks at Maryland. So you've got some
- 13:07Speaker 1: guys there, and do they fit in the top five? No,
- 13:09Speaker 1: not really, but you're starting to see Christian Gonzalez name
- 13:13Speaker 1: climbing the board and Witherspoon climbing the board. And if
- 13:15Speaker 1: they go, how long is it before someone says, hey, look,
- 13:18Speaker 1: Porter and Banks are going to go, and I don't
- 13:21Speaker 1: want to be stuck without one of these four guys.
- 13:23Speaker 1: I thought I could get him at twenty one. I'm
- 13:25Speaker 1: going to have to go up. If I'm the Chargers
- 13:27Speaker 1: or the Ravens, whoever it is, you know they and
- 13:30Speaker 1: they have a lot of influence on the draft. Whoever
- 13:33Speaker 1: they are. Say that the cornerback position is deep, well
- 13:36Speaker 1: it's not so deep if all the top guys start
- 13:38Speaker 1: going in a row and you got to start making
- 13:41Speaker 1: a move to get one of those guys. Witherspoon really
- 13:43Speaker 1: good player at Illinois, big ten dB of the Year
- 13:47Speaker 1: and put together a great career. And we know the
- 13:50Speaker 1: Illinois influence in the ownership here, so that you know
- 13:54Speaker 1: who knows with that. And then Porter NFL bloodlines you
- 13:58Speaker 1: talked about it, but can make big plays on big
- 14:01Speaker 1: stages for Penn State, ridiculous length. I mean, this guy
- 14:04Speaker 1: he reminds me physically of Jalen Ramsey, and there aren't
- 14:07Speaker 1: many corners that have that presence on the field. The
- 14:10Speaker 1: broad shoulders, the long arms, huge hands. For Joey Porters here,
- 14:15Speaker 1: look at the size of this guy. He's got boxing
- 14:17Speaker 1: gloves on the end of those those arms, and they
- 14:20Speaker 1: bat balls away. He is a playmaker and Banks apparently
- 14:23Speaker 1: turned in a ridiculous workout. And so when you're looking
- 14:27Speaker 1: at these guys, there is all swords of big play
- 14:31Speaker 1: potential in those four right. Forget Cam Smith or Brian
- 14:35Speaker 1: Branch and some of these other guys names that you're
- 14:37Speaker 1: starting to get a sense of. These guys are the
- 14:40Speaker 1: elite first round grades and they could start a run earlier.
- 14:44Speaker 1: How about how about go ahead? I was gonna say edge.
- 14:47Speaker 1: I was just about, you know, because it's quarterback, it's
- 14:50Speaker 1: protecting the quarterback. It's going to get the quarterback right,
- 14:53Speaker 1: and then it's defending guys at the quarterbacks thrown to
- 14:55Speaker 1: a corner. I don't know if that's the order. Just
- 14:58Speaker 1: just look at the wingspan of Joey Porters free. Yeah,
- 15:00Speaker 1: so you know, will Anderson Junior is probably the top
- 15:04Speaker 1: guy right UM Tyree Wilson from Texas Tech. Good player
- 15:09Speaker 1: Nolan Smith if he's healthy the pectorial injury this season,
- 15:12Speaker 1: So let's see if he's from out of Georgia. UM
- 15:16Speaker 1: A guy like Bjjilari Lsu who put in some time
- 15:19Speaker 1: down in Baton Rouge. His brother was a draft pick
- 15:22Speaker 1: I think two years ago now, and he is more
- 15:26Speaker 1: of an edge rusher than he is a stand up
- 15:28Speaker 1: off the ball guy, so he could be in that
- 15:31Speaker 1: mix as well and put up some big numbers at
- 15:33Speaker 1: those and Luke Vaness from Iowa and Miles Murphy are
- 15:36Speaker 1: guys that if there's a run, right and when you're
- 15:39Speaker 1: sitting at twenty four, you hope there's a run on
- 15:41Speaker 1: some positions. Hopefully he's not in the position you want,
- 15:43Speaker 1: but that pushes someone down the board that you might
- 15:47Speaker 1: not have anticipated was there for you. And then of
- 15:50Speaker 1: course the receivers. You could see Jackson, Jordan Addison's a Flowers,
- 15:55Speaker 1: Quinton Johnston that could start a run as well, and
- 15:58Speaker 1: there could be an offensive lineman that you might not
- 16:00Speaker 1: have thought might have made it through that is all
- 16:02Speaker 1: of a sudden sitting there if not at twenty four,
- 16:05Speaker 1: maybe at eighteen, and you figure it's worth the cost
- 16:07Speaker 1: to go get. Couple of years ago, all the other
- 16:09Speaker 1: two receivers in state opted out of the Rose Bowl
- 16:12Speaker 1: and he just puts up three hundreds something yards in
- 16:14Speaker 1: the Rose Bowl. Jackson Smith and Jake, you guys, unbelievable.
- 16:17Speaker 1: He's a slot guy, but he's They couldn't stop throwing
- 16:19Speaker 1: it to it pretty darn good. All right, that'll do
- 16:22Speaker 1: it for big things. When we come back here on
- 16:24Speaker 1: Jags Drive Time with J. P. Shadick on a Tuesday morning,
- 16:27Speaker 1: we'll take a look at the offensive line prospects that
- 16:30Speaker 1: belong somewhere between number five and number twenty four and
- 16:34Speaker 1: discuss how they might impact the Jaguars. All coming ahead
- 16:37Speaker 1: here on Jags Drive Time from tia A Bank Field
- 16:40Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. All right, rolling right along here on a
- 16:44Speaker 1: Tuesday morning, two weeks and two days from the start
- 16:48Speaker 1: of the NFL Draft of the city providing coverage, we'll
- 16:51Speaker 1: be here anchoring two weeks, two weeks and a couple
- 16:54Speaker 1: of days. Where does the offseason go? That's what happens
- 16:57Speaker 1: when you're good, that's it, right, I mean, you get
- 16:59Speaker 1: towards the cusp of February. Now all of a sudden
- 17:01Speaker 1: march and free agencies upon you before you can even blink,
- 17:04Speaker 1: which means the draft is right there as well. Started
- 17:06Speaker 1: to interrupt you. No, no, that's what we do here, right,
- 17:09Speaker 1: that is what we do here. So the draft begins
- 17:11Speaker 1: in like I said, two weeks, in two days, Jags
- 17:13Speaker 1: are twenty fourth in the order. From Union Station in
- 17:16Speaker 1: Kansas City. We have talked about three position groups being
- 17:20Speaker 1: the primary position groups that the Jaguars should look at.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Are looking at its guesswork, right, that's what the draft is.
- 17:28Speaker 1: Last week we looked at corners. This week we're looking
- 17:30Speaker 1: at offensive lineman. So let me throw some at you
- 17:33Speaker 1: and offensive tackle. Obviously, in particular Peter Skonsky from Northwestern.
- 17:39Speaker 1: People are talking about him as a guard. We're going
- 17:41Speaker 1: to talk about him as both. Paris Johnson Junior, you
- 17:44Speaker 1: want to talk about one of the proverbial climbers guys
- 17:46Speaker 1: who are shooting up draft boards. What a big, talented
- 17:50Speaker 1: kid and one of two really good offensive tackles at
- 17:52Speaker 1: Ohio State last year. C J. Strout had it well,
- 17:56Speaker 1: he had was golden last year for him, and then
- 17:59Speaker 1: Broder Jones from the national champion Georgia Bulldogs. He's a
- 18:02Speaker 1: powerful guy. Darnell Right, we've seen him mocked to the Jaguars.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Should he slide that way? A guy who's played guard
- 18:09Speaker 1: in both tackle spots in his time in Knoxville. And
- 18:12Speaker 1: then o Cyrus Torrance a one year guy down in Gainesville,
- 18:16Speaker 1: transferred in with Billy Napier, but is only the fifth
- 18:20Speaker 1: first team All American offensive lineman in Florida history, which
- 18:24Speaker 1: says something about his talent. He is primarily a guard,
- 18:27Speaker 1: but a guy that you could look at as a
- 18:29Speaker 1: right tackle. So let's go back to the guy all
- 18:31Speaker 1: the way there on the left of the screen. Scaranti,
- 18:34Speaker 1: because he's a great story right, born and raised in Chicago,
- 18:37Speaker 1: opted away from Michigan and Notre Dame because he fell
- 18:41Speaker 1: in love with the Northwestern program the way. Yeah, well
- 18:46Speaker 1: that coach here is pretty special and Pat Fitzgerald. Then
- 18:50Speaker 1: he is a guy whose grandfather played for Lombardi, so
- 18:55Speaker 1: that I mean you want to talk about a throwback.
- 18:57Speaker 1: He's strong, he's powerful, he's not really tall, he's not
- 19:00Speaker 1: really long JPD, but he's got a great pedigree. We're
- 19:04Speaker 1: watching him with the two hundred and twenty five pounds
- 19:06Speaker 1: on the bench press. Grandfather won five NFL championships and
- 19:10Speaker 1: the first two Super Bowls, and apparently before he passed
- 19:13Speaker 1: a few years ago, the two were exceedingly close. Another
- 19:16Speaker 1: reason he stayed to play in the Northwestern program. This
- 19:20Speaker 1: is a really good football player. This is a really
- 19:23Speaker 1: bad football team. I mean they were one and eleven
- 19:26Speaker 1: last year. There one came in Week zero in Ireland.
- 19:30Speaker 1: They beat Nebraska and then lost the last eleven games
- 19:33Speaker 1: in a row, and in six of those games their
- 19:35Speaker 1: offense scored single digit points. I mean, this offense stunk.
- 19:39Speaker 1: It was bad. And for an offensive lineman to stand
- 19:42Speaker 1: out for an offense that's ranking one hundred and sixth
- 19:45Speaker 1: in college football, it tells you something about his play
- 19:47Speaker 1: in the respect of coaches and media people around that league.
- 19:51Speaker 1: The top of lineman in the Big Ten, first player
- 19:53Speaker 1: in Northwestern history. It's a unanimous All America selection. And
- 19:57Speaker 1: the guy has skill. The question will be, I think
- 20:00Speaker 1: you meant touched on it earlier. Is he a guard
- 20:03Speaker 1: or is he a true tackle? He's played tackle his
- 20:05Speaker 1: whole career. The measurements and some would say that his
- 20:09Speaker 1: arms are a little shorter than a true prototypical tackle
- 20:13Speaker 1: would compare to Paris Johnson Junior. Yeah, well who isn't
- 20:16Speaker 1: everybody's arms are shorter than him and the other tackled
- 20:19Speaker 1: Ohio State. That's how it works. But you know he's
- 20:22Speaker 1: gonna argue, hey, I can play tackle and I can
- 20:25Speaker 1: play both, because obviously as the years go on, that
- 20:28Speaker 1: position will pay out more money. Everybody's gonna argue they
- 20:30Speaker 1: can play tackle. But is he more of a prototypical guard?
- 20:34Speaker 1: With that the style of play? Who to go with
- 20:37Speaker 1: the measurables? I think that's a good question for somebody
- 20:40Speaker 1: who would know more about it well, and that it
- 20:41Speaker 1: goes to where he'll be picked, because you don't see
- 20:43Speaker 1: many guards go in the top ten. And in my
- 20:45Speaker 1: thirty years of covering this league, I've only seen three, right,
- 20:48Speaker 1: I mean we saw Quentin Nelson a few years ago,
- 20:50Speaker 1: and Chance Womack from Alabama a couple of years before that,
- 20:53Speaker 1: Chris Naolie back in the day ago. Yeah, it's been
- 20:56Speaker 1: a while. There aren't many guards to go in the
- 20:57Speaker 1: top ten. Now. The guy next to him, Paris Johnson,
- 21:00Speaker 1: a Cincinnati kid. He was the number two overall recruit
- 21:03Speaker 1: behind Bryce Young. Yep, and this is a guy who
- 21:07Speaker 1: he's got it all. He's got the length, he's got
- 21:10Speaker 1: the competitiveness. You guys, He's fluent in Mandarin Chinese right,
- 21:15Speaker 1: and has already graduated with his undergraduate degree. He's very bright.
- 21:20Speaker 1: He is a very competitive football player. But more importantly
- 21:24Speaker 1: than that, the upside on him is he could be
- 21:27Speaker 1: one of the best tackles in football. You're not taking
- 21:30Speaker 1: a chance when Paris Johnson Junior is your guy, long arms,
- 21:33Speaker 1: thirty six inches and now you see it on the
- 21:36Speaker 1: bench press. There he's thrown away around. That's fine, he's
- 21:38Speaker 1: six six, three thirteen. But think about I mean, we
- 21:41Speaker 1: talked about Stroud earlier, right, and the time he had
- 21:44Speaker 1: to make throws and the receiving cord everything, but he
- 21:47Speaker 1: had that base in front of him. This is the
- 21:49Speaker 1: left tackle, Paris Johnson, the right tackle to wat Jones
- 21:52Speaker 1: had the longest wingspan in the history of senior bowld
- 21:55Speaker 1: measurements ever, eighty nine and a half inches. So these
- 21:58Speaker 1: guys are treeless, just freaks, both of them. So and now,
- 22:02Speaker 1: Dawn Jones is a true right tackle you know, has
- 22:05Speaker 1: been a project over the years. Is just a big,
- 22:08Speaker 1: physical dude, and it's not going to move alo, so
- 22:11Speaker 1: he's a second to third round guy. Paris Johnson, on
- 22:13Speaker 1: the other hand, is a prototypical left tackle, has the
- 22:16Speaker 1: movement ability, has the long reach to do it, and
- 22:19Speaker 1: he's more of a prototypical obviously tackle than Scarons. And
- 22:23Speaker 1: I don't know whether you saw the video it was
- 22:24Speaker 1: all over social media of CJ. Stroud watching his workout
- 22:28Speaker 1: and saying, my dude is a tight end, right, that's
- 22:30Speaker 1: how good he moves. Broderick Jones, we know he's hand.
- 22:35Speaker 1: I don't know, we'll find out. Brodrick Jones from George
- 22:38Speaker 1: is a guy that they compared to a basketball player.
- 22:41Speaker 1: Uh six six, three hundred and thirteen pounds. You know,
- 22:44Speaker 1: he's a guy who has proven it on the field
- 22:47Speaker 1: back to back years. Long term starter there. Um. I
- 22:51Speaker 1: want to talk about Darnell Wright and o Cyrus Torrence though,
- 22:54Speaker 1: because those are the two guys I think that are
- 22:55Speaker 1: most likely to be in the Jaguars cross here is
- 22:58Speaker 1: now not necessarily sitting there, but within reach or maybe
- 23:02Speaker 1: getting there. Right is a guy who's played a couple
- 23:05Speaker 1: of different positions during his time there. Dependable, he's got length,
- 23:11Speaker 1: He's proven himself in the Southeastern conference, which we know
- 23:14Speaker 1: has the best of the best players in it. And
- 23:16Speaker 1: then o Cyrus Torrence is an interesting story, comes in
- 23:22Speaker 1: as a guard and overpowers people right but they could
- 23:24Speaker 1: see him playing right tackle. He stayed home to play
- 23:28Speaker 1: in Louisiana for Billy Napier and then decided, why not
- 23:32Speaker 1: challenge myself, you know, at the highest level. Let's go
- 23:35Speaker 1: see if I can play in the SEC. Oh first year,
- 23:38Speaker 1: first Team All SEC, first Team All American, did not
- 23:42Speaker 1: allow a sack, did not have a penalty in his
- 23:46Speaker 1: one year in the SEC. That's kind of hard to
- 23:48Speaker 1: do for an offensive to You talked about the talent
- 23:51Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball around the conference
- 23:53Speaker 1: and that goes down to Florida as well. So stood
- 23:56Speaker 1: out in a big way. But a guard right again,
- 24:00Speaker 1: maybe a right tackle because he's got the height in
- 24:01Speaker 1: the length. He's six five, he's three hundred and thirty pounds.
- 24:04Speaker 1: He's roughly the same size that you want Taylor was,
- 24:07Speaker 1: so he could play over there. True, that's at least
- 24:09Speaker 1: what some observers say. But if you plug him in
- 24:12Speaker 1: a guard right now, wow, I love the Darnell right
- 24:17Speaker 1: Um idea right because he's played so much football at
- 24:21Speaker 1: a high level, played what forty seven games we just
- 24:23Speaker 1: saw on the screen. There it left and right tackle.
- 24:26Speaker 1: It's been all over the place. And he's another one
- 24:29Speaker 1: that's getting a little chippy about people saying he's just
- 24:32Speaker 1: a right tackle. You know he's he's been on social media,
- 24:34Speaker 1: I guess reportedly the last day or so, snapping back
- 24:37Speaker 1: at some media types about do you want Taylor got
- 24:40Speaker 1: a right tackle? I know twenty million year pretty good.
- 24:42Speaker 1: So I like the way and the way that Tennessee
- 24:45Speaker 1: program has changed over that time too. Yeah, they've had
- 24:47Speaker 1: different styles and coaching styles and offensive styles, and you
- 24:52Speaker 1: know they've had a running quarterback last year, and okay,
- 24:55Speaker 1: well you can play in those different types of situations
- 24:58Speaker 1: no matter who's behind you. That tells you a lot
- 25:00Speaker 1: about his versatility. And here's what you can see watching
- 25:03Speaker 1: him right now. He's got powerful hands. They call him
- 25:06Speaker 1: heavy hands, and watch the way he strikes the bag.
- 25:08Speaker 1: He's a guy who's known to have one of those
- 25:10Speaker 1: powerful punches. Longtime Jaguars fans know Leon Searcy and the
- 25:14Speaker 1: way that Leon Searcy would knock guys off balance in
- 25:16Speaker 1: their rush because when he hit you, you went the
- 25:19Speaker 1: other direction. The word on this kid is he might
- 25:22Speaker 1: have the best punch in the draft. And if you're
- 25:24Speaker 1: talking about a right tackle man, because most teams are
- 25:27Speaker 1: right handed and run right, to have that kind of
- 25:30Speaker 1: power is exactly what you're looking at. All Right, that'll
- 25:33Speaker 1: do it for a look at the top offensive line
- 25:36Speaker 1: prospects and who might be somewhere in the Jaguars site.
- 25:39Speaker 1: We'll see. We'll find out two weeks, two days to
- 25:41Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. When we return, we'll take a look
- 25:44Speaker 1: at the Jaguars offensive line to look at the depth chart.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Talked about the addition of Josh Wells. Nice to have
- 25:48Speaker 1: him back. He's one of the really good guys. What
- 25:50Speaker 1: a Chandler Brewer bring and where does this group fit
- 25:54Speaker 1: coming off of a successful year for this one under
- 25:57Speaker 1: Phil Rauscher. That and more coming ahead on Jags Drivetime. Well,
- 26:08Speaker 1: what do you need air electric or plumbing service? Donovan

- 26:14Speaker 1: customers for nearly forty years. Trust them to deliver fast, reliable,

- 26:26Speaker 1: Ryan Sexton and JP Shadrick with you here on Jags
- 26:29Speaker 1: Drive Time. On a Tuesday. Thanks for filling in. Yeah,
- 26:31Speaker 1: it's great to be here. We're talking in the break
- 26:33Speaker 1: about the joys of social media these days and the
- 26:36Speaker 1: ability for you know, players to snap back and tell
- 26:41Speaker 1: their side of the story, and hey, it's just a
- 26:45Speaker 1: fascinating time. It's a powerful tool. Sometimes it should be
- 26:49Speaker 1: used less, but hey, who am I to say that? Right?
- 26:51Speaker 1: Who made you the b I'm not I choose to
- 26:55Speaker 1: use it less? But go you go ahead, do what
- 26:57Speaker 1: you want to do. All right. Let's take a look
- 26:59Speaker 1: at the Jaguars off of line two editions last week,
- 27:01Speaker 1: One we know well and one that we'll have to
- 27:04Speaker 1: get to know. Josh Wells returns. He and Cam Robinson
- 27:08Speaker 1: are on the left side. Wells, he's a great guy.
- 27:11Speaker 1: Remember when he showed up here in twenty fourteen. He
- 27:13Speaker 1: was a converted quarterback turned tight end turned tackle from
- 27:16Speaker 1: high school through James Madison's Madison And every time he
- 27:19Speaker 1: got a chance to play, he showed you enough to
- 27:22Speaker 1: make you think he might be the guy. And then
- 27:24Speaker 1: he got nicked up yet dinged at. He struggled early
- 27:27Speaker 1: in his career to stay healthy. But you know, then
- 27:29Speaker 1: he goes over and wins a championship with Tom Brady.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Apparently people in Tampa say Brady loved him. Who was
- 27:36Speaker 1: a terrific addition back to this room. And oh, by
- 27:38Speaker 1: the way, he's Tyler Shatley's best friend. They live a
- 27:41Speaker 1: few doors down from each other, and we're in the
- 27:43Speaker 1: same class together undrafted, which is remarkable that the two
- 27:47Speaker 1: undrafted guys are still in the league. Get that long,
- 27:50Speaker 1: and it's remarkable that undrafted guys are in the league
- 27:53Speaker 1: at all. I mean that rarely happens. It's happened a
- 27:56Speaker 1: lot more here than a lot of other places around
- 27:57Speaker 1: the league. Tributing, I mean Tyler Star the last eleven
- 28:00Speaker 1: regular season games last year. They're guys you have to have. Yeah,
- 28:05Speaker 1: it's a huge addition to have him because if Walker
- 28:08Speaker 1: Little is going to slide in to be the right tackle,
- 28:10Speaker 1: and right now, that's where we have him on our
- 28:12Speaker 1: unofficial depth chart, you gotta have a swing tackle and
- 28:15Speaker 1: there's not another one over there. I think they thought
- 28:17Speaker 1: Cole Van Landon might be a guy who could be
- 28:20Speaker 1: a right tackle and a guard, but we've only seen
- 28:22Speaker 1: him a guard in the few snaps that Brandon Sheriff
- 28:25Speaker 1: was out last year battling that core injury. This is
- 28:28Speaker 1: a group jp that last year only allowed Trevor Lawrence
- 28:32Speaker 1: to be sacked twenty seven times. Right, in seventeen regular
- 28:37Speaker 1: season games and two playoff games, he was only sacked
- 28:40Speaker 1: twenty seven times. They took the running game up to
- 28:45Speaker 1: a completely different level. A big deal of that is
- 28:48Speaker 1: obviously having a guy like travisy Ten who averaged more
- 28:50Speaker 1: than five yards to carry last year, but they went
- 28:53Speaker 1: to one hundred and twenty five rushing yards per game
- 28:55Speaker 1: four point seven per carry. They had six games where
- 28:58Speaker 1: they didn't allow a single sack, not a single one,
- 29:01Speaker 1: and over the five game winning streak they want allowed five.
- 29:04Speaker 1: And by the way, what we can't tell you is
- 29:06Speaker 1: how many those were Trevor getting rid of the ball
- 29:08Speaker 1: right as he's about to run out of bounds, right.
- 29:11Speaker 1: I Mean, it's just one of those things where the
- 29:13Speaker 1: offensive line played so well last year and yet people
- 29:18Speaker 1: still think they've got to be a lot better. Yeah,
- 29:21Speaker 1: they really played well. I think a lot of that
- 29:23Speaker 1: is the attitude that Sheriff brought to the team. I mean,
- 29:26Speaker 1: playing and he played hurt a lot of that stretch
- 29:29Speaker 1: run last season, and for him to be out there
- 29:31Speaker 1: and fighting through what he was going through. I think
- 29:33Speaker 1: that told you a lot about his grit and what
- 29:37Speaker 1: this season meant to him. And I think the offensive
- 29:40Speaker 1: line took a lot from him. And then the ability
- 29:43Speaker 1: of Shatler just to step in there and do what
- 29:46Speaker 1: he needed to do whenever the team needed it. Those
- 29:48Speaker 1: two veteran guys up front really set the tone. And
- 29:52Speaker 1: then of course the right tackle played out of his
- 29:54Speaker 1: mind last year in a contract year, which certainly helped.
- 29:57Speaker 1: And Cam Robinson's solid, solid left tackle can obviously in
- 30:03Speaker 1: the run game, bring the power when he needs to,
- 30:05Speaker 1: and has that attitude about him. This was a good group.
- 30:09Speaker 1: Now you get BArch back. Is he gonna be you know,
- 30:12Speaker 1: he said last I talked to him. His rehab is
- 30:14Speaker 1: going well, it's been a little bit. He's playing pretty
- 30:16Speaker 1: good before he got hurt, and he was so that
- 30:18Speaker 1: you know, you're pretty confident that hopefully, if he's healthy,
- 30:21Speaker 1: he's back and at least close to the level that
- 30:23Speaker 1: he was when he went away. And then we'll see
- 30:27Speaker 1: you at the rest and Walker little is he Is
- 30:30Speaker 1: he gonna be a regular right tackle? Are they going
- 30:32Speaker 1: to compete? Are they gonna maybe see if he can
- 30:35Speaker 1: play left? And is Cam open a play right? I
- 30:38Speaker 1: said it in last week's Happy Hour. I wouldn't do that.
- 30:40Speaker 1: I mean, you paid Cam Robinson to be the left tackle.
- 30:43Speaker 1: Rum he's the left tackle in my opinion. I don't
- 30:46Speaker 1: know if that's what they're thinking, but as of right now,
- 30:49Speaker 1: he's the left tackle until he's not well. They paid him,
- 30:51Speaker 1: so maybe that would make the decision easier because he
- 30:53Speaker 1: got paid like a left tackle. That's right. We'll see
- 30:55Speaker 1: where that one goes. The thing you know is this
- 30:58Speaker 1: is that Cam has two more years left on his
- 31:01Speaker 1: deal and Walker Little is a guy that you need
- 31:04Speaker 1: to find out whether he can play or not. I
- 31:06Speaker 1: think you found out at the end of last season.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Can you play right tackle? Right? We're gonna find out
- 31:11Speaker 1: whether he can or he can't. But you need a
- 31:13Speaker 1: young tackle. And if you're sitting there, it's a tough
- 31:16Speaker 1: position to find. And if you're sitting there at twenty
- 31:18Speaker 1: four and one of those guys that we just talked
- 31:20Speaker 1: about is there, man, it's hard to pass on those guys. Yeah,
- 31:25Speaker 1: there's only so many big talented offensive linement move that
- 31:29Speaker 1: can move. And we just saw guys move right. So
- 31:31Speaker 1: it's called the planet theory. It was George Young, the
- 31:33Speaker 1: late great general manager the Dolphins and the Giants, who
- 31:37Speaker 1: came up with that one. But this is a good
- 31:39Speaker 1: offensive line group even without Juwan, right, They're still going
- 31:43Speaker 1: to line up and be able to play and play well.
- 31:46Speaker 1: But there's no depth there. I mean, it's not a
- 31:49Speaker 1: knock on Josh, but there's no depth there for the
- 31:51Speaker 1: future if you don't take a tackle a ninth years
- 31:56Speaker 1: swing guy, all right, and he's on a one year
- 31:58Speaker 1: deal anyway. So at this point you're looking for guys
- 32:01Speaker 1: that you can build on, and that might be the spot.
- 32:04Speaker 1: Might not be in the the first round. It might
- 32:06Speaker 1: be in the second round. It might be a couple
- 32:07Speaker 1: of guys. Yeah. I mean, you never know, because, like
- 32:10Speaker 1: you said, you can never have too many of them,
- 32:12Speaker 1: and you know you can only get them a few places.
- 32:14Speaker 1: The draft is one of the important places to find
- 32:17Speaker 1: those guys. But if you feel good with Robinson, BArch, Fortner, Sheriff,
- 32:21Speaker 1: and Little, let's roll the ball out. Let's go good
- 32:24Speaker 1: about it. Not a lot of holes in that. We
- 32:26Speaker 1: take that, all right. We'll come back and wrap up
- 32:29Speaker 1: Jags Drive time with J P. Shaderick here on a
- 32:31Speaker 1: Tuesday morning. Right after this. Well, Magellan invites you to
- 32:37Speaker 1: help them move the freight. They have been voted the
- 32:39Speaker 1: coolest office space in Jacksonville, and you can apply online
- 32:42Speaker 1: at Magellan Logistics dot com and help them move the freight.
- 32:47Speaker 1: I was I was hoping you were going to chant
- 32:49Speaker 1: it like the commercial move the freight, Move the freight.
- 32:53Speaker 1: You just did. Come on, man, I knew you were
- 32:54Speaker 1: going for it. I was counting on you. That's what
- 32:58Speaker 1: Osher always does, what we do here. Yeah, I appreciate
- 33:01Speaker 1: Magellan as a sponsor the show. We do a couple
- 33:03Speaker 1: of notes. The drafts in Kansas City and that's your
- 33:06Speaker 1: that's your territory, a hometown, right, have family there, grew
- 33:10Speaker 1: up there. Tell them that Sexton built No, I wouldn't
- 33:12Speaker 1: say that. I know it. Well, Barbecue built it. Barbecue built. Um.
- 33:16Speaker 1: They're expecting three hundred thousand folks, which would make it
- 33:19Speaker 1: the largest sporting event ever held in Kansas City if
- 33:22Speaker 1: you call it it, oh Man, Yeah, if you call
- 33:26Speaker 1: it a sporting event, if you look at the ratings,
- 33:28Speaker 1: it is right. I mean, the Draft does better ratings
- 33:31Speaker 1: than other sports on TV in their regular seasons. Um, Nashville,
- 33:37Speaker 1: I think Vegas was Vegas, Dallas, Philly, Chicago. They all
- 33:41Speaker 1: did a great job. I thought Nashville a few years
- 33:43Speaker 1: ago in twenty nineteen did as good a job as
- 33:45Speaker 1: anybody ever has. I mean, that was fantastic stage on
- 33:48Speaker 1: Broadway set up with all the bars and everything, and
- 33:51Speaker 1: the cameras you know, you know, the cameras on cables
- 33:54Speaker 1: that they have here in the state, and they had
- 33:55Speaker 1: them running down the length of Broadway. Nashville was as
- 33:58Speaker 1: good as it got. They had six hundred thousand people
- 34:00Speaker 1: there for that. It didn't feel that way. Kansas City
- 34:03Speaker 1: in the middle of the country kind of like Nashville.
- 34:06Speaker 1: I think they have a chance to have a huge
- 34:07Speaker 1: crowd show up. It should be fun, and of course
- 34:10Speaker 1: they're the world champions and it's a chance for them
- 34:12Speaker 1: to show off and show off their barbecue. We need
- 34:16Speaker 1: more chiefs in our life. Yeah, great, Yeah, those I
- 34:20Speaker 1: deal with it more than you can imagine those guys.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Final thought, YouTube is is the home of the direct ticket.
- 34:25Speaker 1: You said they've just announced their package. Yeah, so YouTube
- 34:28Speaker 1: They've announced today NFL Sunday Ticket will be on obviously
- 34:32Speaker 1: YouTube TV, but they've announced that current YouTube TV members
- 34:36Speaker 1: can add Sunday ticket at a presale price of two
- 34:39Speaker 1: hundred and forty nine dollars for the season. That's one
- 34:41Speaker 1: hundred dollars off the retail cost of it. You can
- 34:44Speaker 1: add red zone as well, so it's not going to
- 34:47Speaker 1: be it'll be online. It'll be everywhere you go, so
- 34:49Speaker 1: you don't have to have the dish anymore to do it.
- 34:52Speaker 1: YouTube TV is a very convenient thing. It certainly is.
- 34:55Speaker 1: I think you can watch up to five feeds at
- 34:56Speaker 1: once on your log, which is pretty cool, preposterously good.
- 35:00Speaker 1: Used to on college football, I would have like four
- 35:02Speaker 1: different TVs in the living room and I would have
- 35:05Speaker 1: four different games on it one time. Over YouTube tv.
- 35:08Speaker 1: It was the best Saturday's ever, unbelieved. I come from
- 35:11Speaker 1: an ero where you got one game, right right, maybe
- 35:14Speaker 1: you got two, not many four at the same time.
- 35:17Speaker 1: My god, the Jetsons is coming to real life. How
- 35:20Speaker 1: far away we're talking about Kansas City. Let's go back
- 35:22Speaker 1: to that real quick. Sorry, How far away is Union
- 35:24Speaker 1: Station from? Like power and Light and the World War
- 35:27Speaker 1: One thing? So Union Stations right next Narrowhead and all that,
- 35:30Speaker 1: all right? So Union Station is right in the heart
- 35:33Speaker 1: of downtown, and it's right across the street from the
- 35:36Speaker 1: Liberty Memorial, which is the World War One Museum, and
- 35:39Speaker 1: it's fantastic. If you're going, you'll want to make time
- 35:42Speaker 1: to go see that. That museum is amazing. It's probably
- 35:45Speaker 1: a mile as the crow fly south of the Power
- 35:48Speaker 1: and Light District. Take a little bit to get around
- 35:50Speaker 1: there on I thirty five, and the Narrowhead is eight
- 35:54Speaker 1: miles maybe nine to the east of Kansas City. Okay,
- 35:58Speaker 1: so okay, I don't know they're doing much at Arrowhead,
- 36:01Speaker 1: but the Power Light District will be rocking for sure.
- 36:04Speaker 1: And you got to reserve your spot now for the
- 36:06Speaker 1: Duval draft party at the bat at Daily's place. That's
- 36:10Speaker 1: coming up too. And where do people go to do that?
- 36:11Speaker 1: You can go to Let's see here. Um you can

- 36:45Speaker 1: brand new airport terminal in Kansas City. Ever flown through that.
- 36:49Speaker 1: It's the worst airport. It was the worst day. I
- 36:51Speaker 1: haven't touched sinceince nineteen sixty eight. Yeah, until now. They
- 36:55Speaker 1: touched it. The tier part of it down. But now
