- 1:55Speaker 3: good time of Yearly OTAs are starting up. Yes, fine, soon,
- 2:01Speaker 3: that's good. He'll be on the field doing things. Wow,
- 2:04Speaker 3: I met some point for the players. It's a big deal.
- 2:07Speaker 3: It is. Yeah, I mean it's a big deal.
- 2:08Speaker 4: I mean players come back in town working out together,
- 2:12Speaker 4: new defensive coaching staff, new scheme to learn a lot
- 2:15Speaker 4: of that going on. I'm sure they'll tweak some of
- 2:17Speaker 4: the offensive stuff as well, but not as it's not
- 2:21Speaker 4: going to be a complete overhaul of the system obviously,
- 2:23Speaker 4: like the defensive side of the ball, that's going to
- 2:25Speaker 4: be a lot of change, a lot of new personalities
- 2:29Speaker 4: and some of the same.
- 2:30Speaker 3: Guys, including a guy who just signed an extension five years.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Reports of one hundred and forty one million dollars in
- 2:39Speaker 3: change twenty eight point two five million dollars annually. Josh
- 2:45Speaker 3: Allen is coming back and the number seven pick in
- 2:49Speaker 3: the twenty nineteen NFL Draft. It's a massive amount of money.
- 2:53Speaker 3: But he talked a lot yesterday about leaving a legacy.
- 2:58Speaker 5: So last year bringing his single season record wasn't because
- 3:04Speaker 5: as a contract here. Thankfully it was a contract year,
- 3:06Speaker 5: but if it was two three years ago, I would
- 3:09Speaker 5: have done it, you know what I mean.
- 3:11Speaker 6: But it's just figuring everything out and.
- 3:13Speaker 5: Putting the pieces together, you know, building that confidence back
- 3:17Speaker 5: up that I feel like I lost because I didn't
- 3:19Speaker 5: live up to expectations that I know I could, you know.
- 3:22Speaker 5: So it's investing in here, investing to your body a
- 3:25Speaker 5: little bit more than what you usually do, and being
- 3:27Speaker 5: okay with the results that come with it. So for me,
- 3:31Speaker 5: it's too all right, that worked for me, you know,
- 3:34Speaker 5: let me do it again and so you know, I
- 3:37Speaker 5: found out what works for me. I find out my plan,
- 3:39Speaker 5: I find out my schedule, and you know, again, I
- 3:43Speaker 5: thank God every morning, every night, and before I eat
- 3:48Speaker 5: that I'm thankful, and I am a humble servant under him,
- 3:52Speaker 5: and my kids would be, my wife is, and my
- 3:54Speaker 5: whole family is.
- 3:55Speaker 3: So that's Josh Allen yesterday the full press conference on
- 3:58Speaker 3: Jaguars dot Com. Seventeen and a half sacks in the
- 4:00Speaker 3: contract year, of course, and now ten sacks, shy of
- 4:03Speaker 3: tying Tony Brackens with the franchise record, Jeff Logoman, Hey
- 4:07Speaker 3: produce at the right time, and he is here for
- 4:10Speaker 3: a long time to come.
- 4:12Speaker 4: And I'm excited and happy to have him just because
- 4:15Speaker 4: he's their best pass rusher. And if you don't have
- 4:18Speaker 4: the best pass rusher returning, then what do you do.
- 4:21Speaker 4: It's it's like, okay, now we got to find somebody
- 4:23Speaker 4: to replace him, and then now we got to try
- 4:25Speaker 4: to get better around everywhere.
- 4:27Speaker 3: Else as well.
- 4:27Speaker 4: It's not easy to do. So glad he's back in
- 4:29Speaker 4: the fold. Wish it had been done two years ago,
- 4:33Speaker 4: which I could have told you two years ago that
- 4:36Speaker 4: you want to keep this guy.
- 4:38Speaker 3: But the production, the numbers might not have been there
- 4:41Speaker 3: two years ago.
- 4:42Speaker 4: You know, i'd see don I don't look at Josh
- 4:44Speaker 4: as that kind of a guy. I don't, And I
- 4:47Speaker 4: look at Josh as a guy who's self motivated, that's
- 4:49Speaker 4: always going to do his best, no matter what what
- 4:54Speaker 4: the contract situation is or anything like that. So I
- 4:58Speaker 4: was never I would never be worried about Josh. I'm
- 5:02Speaker 4: happy for him. It makes me wish I was twenty
- 5:04Speaker 4: five years old again. Yeah, it makes you want to
- 5:06Speaker 4: go stretch a little bit. Huh okay. You know, And
- 5:10Speaker 4: the money is you know, I think it puts him,
- 5:12Speaker 4: what done, one of the top five defensive players in
- 5:15Speaker 4: the National Football League right now.
- 5:16Speaker 3: It's the third largest value contract of any current NFL
- 5:20Speaker 3: defensive player. Yeah, it is big. It's big money, and
- 5:23Speaker 3: you know.
- 5:24Speaker 4: He he kind of rolled the dice a little bit.
- 5:26Speaker 3: You know.
- 5:27Speaker 4: He played last year and I don't want to bet
- 5:32Speaker 4: on himself whatever you want to call it. And he
- 5:34Speaker 4: did well, he made the plays. He had a great year.
- 5:38Speaker 4: And I still believe that Josh was a good player
- 5:42Speaker 4: and was having great years in great games before that.
- 5:46Speaker 4: So but I'm happy for him. Happy he's back in
- 5:48Speaker 4: the fall.
- 5:48Speaker 3: He talked a lot yesterday about last year going into
- 5:52Speaker 3: the season was the time he actually found the process
- 5:54Speaker 3: that worked the best for him. Obviously the results were
- 5:57Speaker 3: there during the season, but I'm going to Arizona on
- 6:00Speaker 3: his own. Missing a lot of the offseason program and
- 6:03Speaker 3: then just getting right mentally and physically in the off
- 6:06Speaker 3: season set him up for success. So he found, like,
- 6:10Speaker 3: at least he said yesterday, he felt like he's probably
- 6:12Speaker 3: found that formula that he's going to follow moving ahead.
- 6:15Speaker 4: And that's a good thing. And I know he also
- 6:17Speaker 4: talked about spending the first couple of weeks of OTAs
- 6:20Speaker 4: here in Jacksonville so that he could learn the new defense,
- 6:24Speaker 4: you know, learn and meet these new coaches that are
- 6:27Speaker 4: going to be on the defensive side of the ball.
- 6:29Speaker 4: And that's smart. But I like that he's going to
- 6:31Speaker 4: go back to Arizona where he was at. I mean,
- 6:34Speaker 4: if it works for if it works for the guy,
- 6:36Speaker 4: let him keep on doing it. And some coaches might
- 6:39Speaker 4: be a little bit I guess resentful that a player
- 6:43Speaker 4: would go and train elsewhere, but most coaches that get it,
- 6:47Speaker 4: if that's what's going to get the best out of
- 6:49Speaker 4: the player, then by all means go, go do your thing.
- 6:54Speaker 4: But I will say this, as a player, you take
- 6:57Speaker 4: that a little added risk when you're working out some else,
- 7:00Speaker 4: because if you're working under themec here the Miller Electric
- 7:06Speaker 4: Center and then something happens to you and you get hurt,
- 7:09Speaker 4: it's treated a little bit differently than if you were
- 7:12Speaker 4: somewhere else working out and had the exact same thing happen.
- 7:16Speaker 4: So but that's good. I think that's a great plan
- 7:19Speaker 4: by Josh. And I know Josh gave a lot of
- 7:23Speaker 4: credit to his wife, as he should have, because here
- 7:26Speaker 4: he is flying to Arizona at the beginning of the
- 7:30Speaker 4: week or on Sundays and then flying back home to
- 7:33Speaker 4: be able to spend the weekend with a family. You know,
- 7:35Speaker 4: he's committed. I mean that commitment there is incredible. And
- 7:39Speaker 4: he was very thankful to his wife too, and she
- 7:43Speaker 4: supported him through this whole process, and so kudos to them.
- 7:47Speaker 4: And I'm happy for Josh. And he's one of my favorites,
- 7:50Speaker 4: you know, he's one of my favorites. And I love
- 7:52Speaker 4: the guy and I love everything about him. He's a
- 7:55Speaker 4: first class, he's a leader, and he's one of those
- 7:58Speaker 4: guys that you always want to end up keeping him
- 8:01Speaker 4: around because he's just a he's good for a locker room.
- 8:05Speaker 3: He's good for the room. And he had to go
- 8:07Speaker 3: the scenic route in his career to get to this point.
- 8:10Speaker 3: Remember this is a long way from Abbeville, Alabama, when
- 8:14Speaker 3: he was three years in high school there and then
- 8:16Speaker 3: went back to New Jersey for his last year of
- 8:18Speaker 3: high school. Was like a two or three star recruit,
- 8:20Speaker 3: maybe a two star recruit. Didn't have any offers. He
- 8:23Speaker 3: was going to go to I think the Monmouth and
- 8:25Speaker 3: then Kentucky got a whiff of him because they had
- 8:27Speaker 3: a couple of decommitments and all of a sudden, hey,
- 8:30Speaker 3: they had a connection somehow in New Jersey and got
- 8:33Speaker 3: to look at his tape and all of a sudden,
- 8:35Speaker 3: he's in Lexington, Kentucky. And he was a wide receiver
- 8:39Speaker 3: in those years in Alabama in high school too. I mean,
- 8:41Speaker 3: that is quite a run from that point to now.
- 8:44Speaker 3: It's amazing.
- 8:46Speaker 4: If you go and you look at the history of
- 8:48Speaker 4: the league and some of the great players, a lot
- 8:51Speaker 4: of the great players have something similar to that, and
- 8:56Speaker 4: a lot of people say, well, does that make the
- 8:59Speaker 4: player better? I think it does because they a lot
- 9:03Speaker 4: of players that they're not these five star athletes. Immediately
- 9:07Speaker 4: they feel like they have to do the extra work.
- 9:10Speaker 4: So that player learns a little bit higher level of
- 9:12Speaker 4: work ethic and commitment and doing the extra things because
- 9:16Speaker 4: they're not a five star recruit. They're a two star guy.
- 9:20Speaker 4: So I think those people are wired a little bit
- 9:23Speaker 4: differently than compared to somebody who's five star has things
- 9:27Speaker 4: come easy. You know, runs a four to four in
- 9:31Speaker 4: barefoot and a you know, a barred pair of shorts
- 9:34Speaker 4: or whatever. You know, I mean effortless. You know, those
- 9:37Speaker 4: guys typically sometimes don't. They don't have that work ethic.
- 9:41Speaker 3: In the commitment.
- 9:42Speaker 4: And so I mean Josh learned it, and good for him,
- 9:44Speaker 4: and he's I don't know, I don't know if I
- 9:46Speaker 4: know a guy that's been with the Jaguars that's worked harder.
- 9:51Speaker 4: I mean, the guy works his rear end off and
- 9:54Speaker 4: is committed fully and fully bought in. And I know
- 9:59Speaker 4: that Trent Balkey talked about him being a cornerstone piece.
- 10:01Speaker 4: Absolutely he is. Those are the kind of players, again,
- 10:04Speaker 4: you want to build your football team with.
- 10:06Speaker 3: Whether you need air, electric or plumbing service, Donovan is
- 10:09Speaker 3: always a good call. And they've been trusted by customers
- 10:12Speaker 3: for almost forty years. Trust them to deliver a fast,
- 10:15Speaker 3: reliable service to your home. We're on ten to exlam
- 10:19Speaker 3: Jaguars dot Com, Jaguars YouTube. It's Jaguars Happy Hour JP
- 10:22Speaker 3: Shadwick with Jeff Logoman And now to the part about
- 10:25Speaker 3: this new defense that's coming in. Ryan Nielson, of course,
- 10:29Speaker 3: is the defensive coordinator. You know he's an edge player.
- 10:34Speaker 3: We know that, but there were moments late last year.
- 10:37Speaker 3: Didn't he line up inside a little bit? Or him
- 10:39Speaker 3: and Trayvon both did? And could that be something moving forward?
- 10:43Speaker 3: Maybe part of a package deal? How do you line
- 10:46Speaker 3: Josh Allen up now? Yeah?
- 10:48Speaker 4: I don't see him getting moved inside on a regular basis.
- 10:52Speaker 4: I think every now and again is a kind of
- 10:54Speaker 4: a change of pace to keep the offense and the
- 10:57Speaker 4: offensive line a little bit lighter on their feet because
- 11:00Speaker 4: they're not sure what's going to happen, because that's what
- 11:02Speaker 4: happens when you move your typical edge rushers to the
- 11:06Speaker 4: inside offensive line, like, wait a minute, what's going on here?
- 11:08Speaker 4: And when I say lighter on their feet, I mean
- 11:10Speaker 4: that I mean lighter on their feet because they're not
- 11:12Speaker 4: sure what's gonna happen a little bit indecisive. So, but
- 11:15Speaker 4: I don't see that being a mainstay of this defense
- 11:18Speaker 4: with Ryan Nielsen. But if all of a sudden you
- 11:21Speaker 4: find another edge rusher in the draft, Let's say you
- 11:24Speaker 4: get Jared Versu in the draft. Okay, Florida State, tremendous player.
- 11:28Speaker 4: I'd rather have a guy from UCLA, by the way,
- 11:31Speaker 4: a lot too. Is that how you said pronounce it?
- 11:33Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 11:33Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I know you're talking about he is JP
- 11:38Speaker 3: watching the film on that guy?
- 11:39Speaker 4: Oh my god. I mean, I don't know. If I would,
- 11:44Speaker 4: I would probably take him lat too, That's it. I
- 11:47Speaker 4: would take him like the first non quarterback. I'd be
- 11:52Speaker 4: taking that guy. Wow, he's that good.
- 11:55Speaker 3: That good.
- 11:55Speaker 4: But I mean, if you had let's say you added
- 11:57Speaker 4: another edge rusher. Okay, now you can make move Trayvon
- 12:00Speaker 4: inside a little bit. He's a little bit better suited
- 12:03Speaker 4: to that than Josh. I think Josh is more and
- 12:09Speaker 4: Josh is more comfortable on the right side, and so
- 12:12Speaker 4: Josh on the right side on the outside. Trayvon I
- 12:14Speaker 4: think can do a little bit of both. I think
- 12:16Speaker 4: he's got the size, certainly got the strength to be
- 12:18Speaker 4: able to kick down inside. So you wouldn't worry about
- 12:21Speaker 4: him handling any kind of power in those situations.
- 12:26Speaker 3: You see here Abdullah going to develop.
- 12:29Speaker 4: I mean, he didn't do much last year, you know,
- 12:33Speaker 4: you know, he's he's an undersized guy, and I thought
- 12:36Speaker 4: he I thought he needed to be a little bit
- 12:38Speaker 4: lighter and more maneuverable, and uh just never never really
- 12:44Speaker 4: clicked for him last year. So I'm hopeful this year.
- 12:47Speaker 4: I still think he's got he's got a tool set now,
- 12:50Speaker 4: he's got some natural pass rush ability and reactions to it,
- 12:54Speaker 4: and he's undersized, doesn't have the length, and so typically
- 12:58Speaker 4: if you're an underside guy and you don't have the length,
- 13:01Speaker 4: you've got to have something extra, something special. Like Dwight
- 13:06Speaker 4: Freeny Robert Mathis. I mean those guys were not long.
- 13:10Speaker 4: They were a little bit shorter by most standards. But
- 13:13Speaker 4: Dwight Freeni had one of the best first steps in
- 13:15Speaker 4: the league, and Robert Mathis had a whole array of moves.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Different level of guy, but unique and got Away was
- 13:21Speaker 3: not the length guy either.
- 13:23Speaker 4: I don't even know if if he's he's not even
- 13:25Speaker 4: as long as in Gockway and he was not a
- 13:28Speaker 4: long guy.
- 13:29Speaker 3: So that's my point, gotway was not that length player.
- 13:32Speaker 4: Now, he was kind of had a he had a
- 13:34Speaker 4: really cool move, you know, that little chop move, which
- 13:36Speaker 4: was his deal.
- 13:38Speaker 3: So that was the extra thing for him.
- 13:39Speaker 4: Not at the big level Hall of Fame, right, and
- 13:41Speaker 4: he's yeah, he's not, he's not at the there's a
- 13:45Speaker 4: reason why he's bounced around to a lot of different teams.
- 13:48Speaker 3: But just using that as an exact, but did he
- 13:49Speaker 3: really screw up?
- 13:50Speaker 4: He got offered a great contract here, turned it down,
- 13:53Speaker 4: and then then hasn't been anywhere near collecting the level
- 13:56Speaker 4: of pay that he would have gotten with that contract.
- 13:58Speaker 4: And they've moved and he's moved around a bunch of
- 14:01Speaker 4: different teams in a short amount.
- 14:02Speaker 3: Of time too.
- 14:03Speaker 4: Yeah, which is not a good sign. No, especially if
- 14:05Speaker 4: for a guy that can rush the passer. If you're
- 14:08Speaker 4: trading teams and you can rush the passer, what's going.
- 14:10Speaker 3: On is happening? Something's not right? Hey, two weeks until
- 14:14Speaker 3: the drafts, we're back in a moment. You've been digging
- 14:16Speaker 3: into cornerback tape. That's a popular pick for the Jags.
- 14:21Speaker 4: Well understandably so. But I think the big question is
- 14:25Speaker 4: is there a fit at the top at that position.
- 14:30Speaker 3: Well, maybe we're about to find out when we come there.
- 14:33Speaker 4: We are going to find out here in two weeks,
- 14:36Speaker 4: maybe in two minutes, maybe two weeks, in two days
- 14:39Speaker 4: when you explain it to us. After this, I got
- 14:42Speaker 4: I got a few top guys talk about well, I
- 14:44Speaker 4: can't wait to hear them.
- 14:45Speaker 3: Yeah, I got about five or six of them. We
- 14:47Speaker 3: can go, we can do it. Jaguars Happy Hour brought

- 17:12Speaker 4: The NFL totally stole the idea and used what the
- 17:18Speaker 4: Jaguars did to promote the schedule league wise. It was
- 17:23Speaker 4: total thievery. Did they called Jaguars say, hey, we really
- 17:28Speaker 4: appreciate the idea that you guys had for your schedule
- 17:31Speaker 4: release video because we used it for ours.
- 17:35Speaker 3: Did anybody do that? Probably not. No, I don't know.
- 17:39Speaker 4: Could have called called them out and said, look, you
- 17:42Speaker 4: uh evenfringed on our copyrights and we want it.
- 17:46Speaker 3: We want as a copyright. I don't know. I don't know.
- 17:48Speaker 3: I don't know copyright that. I have no idea how
- 17:51Speaker 3: the rules are on it.
- 17:51Speaker 4: But it was it was a total thievery, thievery, total thievery.
- 17:58Speaker 4: The star of the schedule release he was a little
- 18:02Speaker 4: bit of an actor. Yeah, Asher, Yeah, Asher, Asher's great man.
- 18:06Speaker 4: He was all over the when it came out the
- 18:09Speaker 4: other day. He was on like CBS this morning they
- 18:11Speaker 4: got you know, shows are coming out, ghost shows and
- 18:13Speaker 4: all this stuff. So he's all over the place talking
- 18:15Speaker 4: about it. He was texting me the other day because
- 18:18Speaker 4: he he was talking to somebody about this tequila that
- 18:24Speaker 4: we we were kind of was our lucky bottle of
- 18:27Speaker 4: tequila for the road two years ago.
- 18:30Speaker 3: Okay, he ended up having them.
- 18:32Speaker 4: They end up sending him a bunch of free bottles
- 18:34Speaker 4: of tequila. I was like, where, wait a minute, where's ours?
- 18:39Speaker 3: You know the address to the stadium, that's right, Asher
- 18:42Speaker 3: all right, So, but the schedule release is kind of
- 18:46Speaker 3: like when it gets real for me and the Okay,
- 18:48Speaker 3: you know, you can schedule out what you're gonna do
- 18:50Speaker 3: from August until hopefully February. You know, what's the schedule
- 18:54Speaker 3: just not in OTAs at all. You like the schedule release,
- 18:56Speaker 3: schedule release, And here we go off and running draft
- 19:01Speaker 3: is coming up, of course, two weeks away, and week
- 19:04Speaker 3: by week here we're going through some position groups that
- 19:06Speaker 3: could be in play for the Jaguars. Well, last week,
- 19:09Speaker 3: quarterback we went through, but that's not quite in play
- 19:11Speaker 3: for the Jags. Cornerback though certainly could be. It's been
- 19:15Speaker 3: mocked to the Jaguars a good bit, and we've kind
- 19:18Speaker 3: of narrowed it down to a few you've watched on film.
- 19:20Speaker 3: You watched a bunch on film. Let's start with Quinon Mitchell. Okay, Toledo,
- 19:26Speaker 3: the name has been mocked to the Jags a lot.
- 19:28Speaker 3: What do you like, what do you not like? What
- 19:29Speaker 3: have you seen?
- 19:30Speaker 4: Real quick before we get to Quinyon Mitchell. The reason
- 19:33Speaker 4: that we started with the quarterbacks, even though the Jaguars
- 19:35Speaker 4: are not in the market for a quarterback, is because
- 19:38Speaker 4: that impacts the draft, especially if you're the Jaguars, which
- 19:42Speaker 4: you know, you're right in the middle of the first round.
- 19:44Speaker 4: You've got a quarterback that you believe is a franchise guy.
- 19:48Speaker 4: And so this opens up a lot of possibilities for
- 19:51Speaker 4: the Jaguars because there could be four or five, maybe
- 19:54Speaker 4: six quarterbacks picked ahead of them.
- 19:57Speaker 3: So now that's.
- 19:58Speaker 4: Pushing down all lot of top tier talent down to
- 20:03Speaker 4: the Jaguars. I'm never going to have their pick of
- 20:06Speaker 4: a number of guys. I think that they will have
- 20:08Speaker 4: their choice of the best corner on the market. In
- 20:11Speaker 4: my opinion, I think that's Quenyon Mitchell. He I think
- 20:15Speaker 4: he's got The only question mark about the top two
- 20:18Speaker 4: guys that I'm going to talk about is that neither
- 20:20Speaker 4: one of them played a bunch of bump and run
- 20:24Speaker 4: man coverage, and in the NFL, all defensive coordinators want
- 20:29Speaker 4: to have somebody that plays bump and run so that
- 20:31Speaker 4: they can play a style of defense that is more
- 20:35Speaker 4: beneficial to them, and that typically will include somebody that
- 20:38Speaker 4: can play really good man and Quenyon Mitchell and Cooper.
- 20:43Speaker 3: De Jeen that I say that, yes, Iowa. Yeah.
- 20:47Speaker 4: Neither one of these guys, which of these are my
- 20:49Speaker 4: top two corners. Neither one of these guys have played
- 20:52Speaker 4: a ton of man. Both of these guys, especially Quanyon Mitchell,
- 20:56Speaker 4: he plays a lot of off coverage, three deep coverage,
- 21:00Speaker 4: but man, he's got great reaction time, he's got great speed,
- 21:06Speaker 4: very good physical tackler, though he checks a lot of
- 21:09Speaker 4: the boxes. Again, you're always trying to forecast or predict
- 21:15Speaker 4: or project an athlete that's playing at the college level
- 21:19Speaker 4: to what he can be in the NFL, and so
- 21:21Speaker 4: there's a little bit of projection involved. I think with
- 21:23Speaker 4: both of these got because they didn't do what you'd
- 21:27Speaker 4: like to have a top cornerback do, which is play
- 21:29Speaker 4: bump and run. But I love quinnyon Mitchell JP He's
- 21:32Speaker 4: my best corner on the board in my opinion de
- 21:36Speaker 4: Gene and then Degene super good tackler, I mean, super
- 21:41Speaker 4: good tackler, great ball skills. I mean, if the ball's
- 21:44Speaker 4: in the air, he turns into a wide receiver and
- 21:46Speaker 4: it's very natural the way sometimes you know, the head turns.
- 21:51Speaker 4: Some guys get lost. He doesn't get lost. He becomes
- 21:55Speaker 4: not only a receiver but also still has the ability
- 21:58Speaker 4: to remain a so in other words, if he can't
- 22:01Speaker 4: catch it, he's got the awareness to break the ball up.
- 22:04Speaker 4: And he's got a lot of size, just similar to
- 22:07Speaker 4: Quinnon Mitchell. Probably a little bit bigger than Quenyon Mitchell,
- 22:11Speaker 4: but again he's played a lot of his own at Iowa.
- 22:14Speaker 4: But super great tackler, physical player, aware player, great ball skills.
- 22:22Speaker 3: I think he's got He's got a lot of upside.
- 22:25Speaker 3: And then another that you wanted to touch on today
- 22:27Speaker 3: from Alabama kool Aid McKinstry. Love the name kool Aid.
- 22:31Speaker 4: I'm drinking the kool aid on this one like this,
- 22:33Speaker 4: So i like him because you know Alabama's got another
- 22:37Speaker 4: guy and Terry and Arnold is that I say that
- 22:39Speaker 4: right the opposite corner, and so you have one in three, Okay,
- 22:42Speaker 4: Terry and Arnold is number three and kool Aid is
- 22:46Speaker 4: number one, And so when you watch Alabama, you got
- 22:49Speaker 4: to pay attention to both of them as well as
- 22:51Speaker 4: Dallas Turner and everybody else because you're watching a ton
- 22:54Speaker 4: of guys who are sitting a rewind in the film
- 22:57Speaker 4: ten times, because you want to watch everybody on that
- 22:59Speaker 4: dpence that's a draftable player. But I really believe that
- 23:04Speaker 4: kool Aid's the better of the two. There's some prognostic
- 23:08Speaker 4: hitters that believe that Terry and Arnold is the higher
- 23:11Speaker 4: rated one.
- 23:12Speaker 3: Not in my book.
- 23:12Speaker 4: Why so, because kool Aid plays man and he is
- 23:16Speaker 4: right there. So if you're the wide receiver, he is
- 23:19Speaker 4: right there in the hip pocket a wide receiver. Everywhere
- 23:22Speaker 4: he goes. He's got a very very strong ability to
- 23:25Speaker 4: do that. So if you're looking for a guy that's
- 23:28Speaker 4: going to play man, he's He's not super big, but
- 23:32Speaker 4: he's got I think decent size.
- 23:34Speaker 3: I like him.
- 23:35Speaker 4: I think he could play some some great football for
- 23:38Speaker 4: a team that's asking asking their corners to play man.
- 23:41Speaker 4: I think he's got that talent.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Well. The Jaguars in their history have drafted three first
- 23:47Speaker 3: round cornerbacks. Fernando Bryant nine two five. That's Fernando Bryant
- 23:52Speaker 3: out of Alabama twenty sixteen. Jalen Ramsey of course out
- 23:55Speaker 3: of Florida State twenty twenty. CJ. Henderson out of Florida.
- 23:58Speaker 3: That was a terrible draft pick. So Henderson didn't last.
- 24:01Speaker 3: Ramsey didn't finish his deal here either, he got traded.
- 24:04Speaker 4: The whole thing with with drafting the guy from Flora,
- 24:10Speaker 4: wasn't it.
- 24:10Speaker 3: CJ. Henderson?
- 24:13Speaker 4: I mean you remember after he was drafted, it was
- 24:14Speaker 4: almost looked like he was not happy the action.
- 24:17Speaker 3: The action was terrible. It started bad and it ended
- 24:21Speaker 3: bad and and in between. It was not good. No,
- 24:25Speaker 3: it was far from it. It was not a good pick.
- 24:29Speaker 3: So the Jackson at least historically, how was Bran Brandon
- 24:33Speaker 3: Brown's a good player, yeah yeah, two five two five
- 24:35Speaker 3: is a good player now. And Ramsey was a good player.
- 24:39Speaker 4: Jalen's great player, Yeah, great player. I mean just you
- 24:41Speaker 4: know the personality of Jalen didn't work here and it
- 24:44Speaker 4: was better for him to go to other places, I guess.
- 24:47Speaker 4: But excellent player. And what I loved about Jalen is
- 24:51Speaker 4: Jaalen when he wants to be he's so physical, so
- 24:54Speaker 4: physical and uh, superior talent. You know, there there's certain
- 25:00Speaker 4: guys that play the game that they just have superior talent.
- 25:04Speaker 4: Jalen Ramsey is like one of those guys at corner
- 25:07Speaker 4: the uh the safety uh uh for the Chargers James
- 25:15Speaker 4: you know, uh Florida State.
- 25:17Speaker 3: Guy Gosh Derwin James.
- 25:20Speaker 4: Yeah, Derwin James is like a like freak, freak, athletic,
- 25:24Speaker 4: super strong, super fast, I mean Derwin James, Jalen Ramsey.
- 25:29Speaker 4: I mean, these are guys that just they're physical freaks
- 25:32Speaker 4: and they don't come along very often. They just have
- 25:35Speaker 4: superior ability and uh and they're fun to watch play.
- 25:39Speaker 4: But you gotta hit. You gotta hit this first round.
- 25:41Speaker 4: If you're going cornerback, you gotta have a guy that
- 25:43Speaker 4: can last. The percentages of the of the of hitting
- 25:47Speaker 4: in the first round need to be very high for
- 25:50Speaker 4: any football team. And if they're not, then you need
- 25:54Speaker 4: to look at who's picking them.
- 25:55Speaker 3: Give me another couple of names that could be in
- 25:58Speaker 3: that mix. Of these three we talked about here, Terry
- 26:01Speaker 3: and Arnold is one of them, right.
- 26:03Speaker 4: Possibly, well, I mean I think as far as like corners, yeah, well,
- 26:06Speaker 4: I mean, if you look Wiggins, Nate Wiggins from Clemson's
- 26:09Speaker 4: a guy that plays a little bit of man. He's
- 26:12Speaker 4: got some size. Not real big fan of his physical
- 26:17Speaker 4: presence tackling ability. I think it's a little bit weak
- 26:20Speaker 4: at times, but he's somewhere up in that range. But
- 26:24Speaker 4: I really believe, Jap that you got to be looking
- 26:26Speaker 4: at those top corners if the Jaguars use that pick
- 26:30Speaker 4: in the first round, because I think that they will
- 26:33Speaker 4: have their choice of any corner when it comes to
- 26:36Speaker 4: pick seventeen. If not, then it'll be the second best corner.
- 26:40Speaker 3: The Jags are celebrating their thirtieth season and the time

- 28:04Speaker 5: they're always going to be a part of it.
- 28:07Speaker 3: Josh Allen discussing family with Kay Stevens. The one on
- 28:12Speaker 3: one conversation available at Jaguars dot Com and Jags YouTube.
- 28:17Speaker 3: Jaguars Happy Hour continues, brought to you by the Saint
- 28:19Speaker 3: John's River Water Management District, Florida's water. It's worth saving. Well,
- 28:26Speaker 3: the draft is almost here, two weeks away. The Jags
- 28:28Speaker 3: will be on the clock at number seventeen. Unless they're not.
- 28:31Speaker 3: They can move back, they can move up, they can
- 28:34Speaker 3: just stay there. There's plenty of options either way. There's
- 28:37Speaker 3: a party at the bank on Thursday April twenty fifth,
- 28:41Speaker 3: the official Duvall Draft Party, presented by Donovan Air, Electric
- 28:45Speaker 3: and Plumbing. We're getting the party started at seven o'clock.
- 28:48Speaker 3: Tickets are free registered today Jaguars dot com slash Draft Party,
- 28:55Speaker 3: and there will be a draft radio show that starts
- 28:58Speaker 3: from the stadium on Thursday the twenty fifth as well.
- 29:03Speaker 4: So a lot going on as always on Draft night.
- 29:06Speaker 4: Excited and looking forward to it. The NFL does a
- 29:09Speaker 4: great job of making the draft of production. It certainly
- 29:12Speaker 4: is a production in Detroit this year. Correct, it is. Yeah,
- 29:16Speaker 4: downtown City, Motor City will have a good show. I'm sure,
- 29:20Speaker 4: yes they will. Well, they'll do a good job. But
- 29:23Speaker 4: I really enjoyed the first round.
- 29:24Speaker 3: I really do.
- 29:25Speaker 4: I watch enough guys on film to get around around
- 29:29Speaker 4: probably three rounds deep total, you know, because I'm watching
- 29:33Speaker 4: about five or six guys at each position, so that
- 29:37Speaker 4: adds up pretty quick. But I like to see what
- 29:40Speaker 4: other people think, you know, once the draft happens, you
- 29:43Speaker 4: kind of compare that what happens to what you kind
- 29:47Speaker 4: of had a mental picture of to see was I
- 29:50Speaker 4: kind of thinking the right thing? Or you know, what
- 29:52Speaker 4: do these do these guys know? What the heck they're doing,
- 29:55Speaker 4: you know, kind of a thing. But the great thing
- 29:57Speaker 4: about the draft again, it's it's and so it's there's
- 30:01Speaker 4: no exact science to it whatsoever. In fact, some people
- 30:06Speaker 4: might have a great knack of it and for it
- 30:09Speaker 4: that have no experience of working for an NFL team,
- 30:14Speaker 4: because some people can can see the traits, some people
- 30:17Speaker 4: can see the production and can kind of put it together.
- 30:22Speaker 4: I wonder when AI, or if AI will ever have
- 30:28Speaker 4: a role It's got to have a role at some
- 30:30Speaker 4: point in analyzing talent college talent for the NFL.
- 30:37Speaker 3: Don't you think they will always be able to do
- 30:39Speaker 3: statistically some of that, I would guess, But you can't.
- 30:44Speaker 3: Computer can't measure hard No, but a computer can measure
- 30:49Speaker 3: speed and reaction and all of those things.
- 30:53Speaker 4: Because I mean, nowadays they have players wearing these monitors
- 30:56Speaker 4: now everywhere. And I mean, so what information is not
- 31:01Speaker 4: out there, I don't know, But I mean there's a
- 31:03Speaker 4: lot of information that AI could use to help spit out,
- 31:07Speaker 4: you know, the the AI top prospect list or something.
- 31:12Speaker 3: I don't know, it's going to be interesting.
- 31:14Speaker 4: AI is having such a huge impact in so many
- 31:16Speaker 4: other areas of our life today, why not looking at
- 31:22Speaker 4: NFL Prospects.
- 31:24Speaker 3: Why not? Yeah, why not? We're on ten Tenexlam Jaguars
- 31:28Speaker 3: dot Com, Jaguars YouTube JP Shadwick with Jeff Logoman and
- 31:32Speaker 3: as we always do on this program, we keep it
- 31:35Speaker 3: real pretty much all the time. Well, certainly in this
- 31:40Speaker 3: segment because it's called keeping it real. Okay, the topic today,
- 31:44Speaker 3: how will Josh Allen handle the expectations that come with
- 31:49Speaker 3: this size of a contract.
- 31:52Speaker 4: That's a challenge. I think you'll handle it very well.
- 31:55Speaker 4: Again I said this earlier. Josh Allen is the type
- 31:59Speaker 4: of qual of person an athlete that you want to
- 32:03Speaker 4: make sure that you get on that second contract. I'm
- 32:05Speaker 4: glad they got it done with them. I don't worry
- 32:08Speaker 4: about a guy like Josh Allen. I mean there's some
- 32:10Speaker 4: guys that you always worry about. Okay, he's got the money, now,
- 32:13Speaker 4: he's not going to end up having the work ethic.
- 32:16Speaker 3: And the commitment to it.
- 32:18Speaker 4: That's why you got to be careful with who you
- 32:21Speaker 4: give the big money to, because some guys aren't wired
- 32:24Speaker 4: to handle the big money. It has an impact on
- 32:27Speaker 4: them in different ways. One it makes them a little
- 32:30Speaker 4: bit less. Some guys that could make them lazy, Hey, look,
- 32:33Speaker 4: you know I've got my guaranteed money. Now I broke
- 32:35Speaker 4: the bank, generational money.
- 32:37Speaker 3: I'm good.
- 32:38Speaker 4: And some guys that it doesn't impact them at all
- 32:41Speaker 4: because they're an ultimate competitor and at the end of
- 32:44Speaker 4: the day, it's not about the money with them, it's
- 32:46Speaker 4: about playing the game at a high level. And always
- 32:52Speaker 4: I always like what Josh says because he talks about
- 32:55Speaker 4: leaving a legacy. Okay, legacy doesn't have anything to do
- 32:59Speaker 4: with money.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Okay.
- 33:00Speaker 4: When he's talking about legacy, he's talking about performance and
- 33:04Speaker 4: playing extremely well and setting a standard for himself. And
- 33:08Speaker 4: that's the kind of guy that you want to be
- 33:09Speaker 4: able to give that type of contract too, because you
- 33:12Speaker 4: know that he's going to react and be responsible and
- 33:15Speaker 4: act accordingly. You know how people are, You know how
- 33:19Speaker 4: fans are and should be because fans need to be.
- 33:25Speaker 3: Super into their football team. Is there a statistical number
- 33:29Speaker 3: that he needs to reach to call this successful or
- 33:33Speaker 3: does that matter to you? Well?
- 33:35Speaker 4: I mean yeah, I think there's always numbers that you
- 33:37Speaker 4: want to attain and because you know, look, everybody measures
- 33:41Speaker 4: a pass rusher by sacks and what was it seventeen
- 33:45Speaker 4: this past year and a half and so everybody's going
- 33:49Speaker 4: to expect seventeen seventeen and a half. I'm not going
- 33:51Speaker 4: to expect seventeen and a half, but I'm going to
- 33:54Speaker 4: expect double digits. I mean, I think that that's the
- 33:56Speaker 4: minimum bar that he needs to surpass, and a lot
- 34:02Speaker 4: of it depends on the circumstances. There are a lot
- 34:06Speaker 4: of guys that don't get twenty sacks or seventeen sacks
- 34:10Speaker 4: but have a huge impact on quarterbacks in the passer
- 34:14Speaker 4: So what's that impact? Sometimes it's not always measurable in
- 34:19Speaker 4: sacks or pressures. So but I think, you know, double digits.
- 34:23Speaker 4: If you're in double digits, man, you're an elite pass rusher.
- 34:26Speaker 4: I mean, simple fact. If you're a double digit sack guy,
- 34:29Speaker 4: you are an elite pass rusher in the National Football League.
- 34:32Speaker 4: If you do it year and in year out. That's
- 34:35Speaker 4: the challenge year in year out.
- 34:37Speaker 3: So ten is your number.
- 34:38Speaker 4: That's why TJ. Watt is up here, you know. That's
- 34:43Speaker 4: why Aaron Donald essentially anointed TJ. Watt Now he's the
- 34:47Speaker 4: best defender in the National Football League. And Aaron Donald
- 34:50Speaker 4: talked about a couple of things. When he talked about TJ. Watt,
- 34:53Speaker 4: and he was spot on consistency, stays on the field
- 34:57Speaker 4: all the time, plays running the pass equally well. I mean,
- 35:01Speaker 4: those are all the things that Josh Allen also does.
- 35:05Speaker 4: But the challenge with Josh now is to do it
- 35:08Speaker 4: again at that kind of a high level.
- 35:11Speaker 3: If TJ.
- 35:11Speaker 4: Watt's been been stacking them, stacking them and stacking them,
- 35:15Speaker 4: and it's hard to do it at that level. TJ
- 35:18Speaker 4: better than Chris Jones. Jeez, it's great. It's a great conversation.
- 35:23Speaker 4: I don't know if he's better different different position. I
- 35:30Speaker 4: will tell you this, every time t J. Watt lines up,
- 35:37Speaker 4: if the play is anywhere in his neighborhood, he is
- 35:42Speaker 4: always very active. Sometimes Chris Jones can shut.
- 35:44Speaker 3: It down a little bit. The boy he can turn
- 35:47Speaker 3: it on.
- 35:47Speaker 4: When he turns it on, he's unbelievable. And I think
- 35:55Speaker 4: the challenge for Chris is to be able to have
- 35:58Speaker 4: more consistency the play in and play out for himself.
- 36:03Speaker 4: But when he rolls you, you're not gonna stop him.
- 36:08Speaker 4: You're not gonna stop him. But for Josh, the challenge
- 36:11Speaker 4: is consistency. To get to that point, you have to
- 36:13Speaker 4: do it year over years year. Look Josh had a
- 36:17Speaker 4: good year two years ago, but not quite the level
- 36:20Speaker 4: that you know that you wanted to see out of Josh,
- 36:23Speaker 4: and he was banged up a little bit, had a
- 36:25Speaker 4: little bit of a shoulder the year. First year is
- 36:28Speaker 4: a rookie ear really good year, you know. So it's
- 36:31Speaker 4: just trying to be consistent and have that productivity at
- 36:35Speaker 4: a high level consistently. It's hard to do, especially if
- 36:39Speaker 4: you're if you got to if you're dinged up, you know,
- 36:41Speaker 4: you're not feeling one hundred percent, you know, and that's
- 36:44Speaker 4: a that's a big part of it.
- 36:46Speaker 3: That was keeping it real. I thought we did that today.
- 36:49Speaker 4: I think we You certainly did your part trying to
- 36:53Speaker 4: keep it real, Jaja, you always do.
- 36:55Speaker 3: We appreciate you know.
- 36:56Speaker 4: The uh to be keep keeping it real. I'm ana
- 37:00Speaker 4: real here. They're someall offensive linemen this this team could
- 37:03Speaker 4: really really use in the draft.
- 37:07Speaker 3: Really yeah, so position group.
- 37:10Speaker 4: I would not be surprised if the Jaguars go offensive
- 37:14Speaker 4: line at seventeen, not one bit surprised. I would not
- 37:19Speaker 4: be a bit surprised if they go defensive tackle. If
- 37:23Speaker 4: if Law two's available at seventeen, which he's not gonna be,
- 37:28Speaker 4: If he were, and you don't pick him, some of
- 37:35Speaker 4: the needs get fired.
- 37:36Speaker 3: I mean the offensive line thing. We've talked about this before.
- 37:41Speaker 3: Considering the players I have on that line, there's some
- 37:44Speaker 3: veteran players on that line that may not be around
- 37:46Speaker 3: here for the long haul.
- 37:48Speaker 4: I would consider trying to trade up in this draft
- 37:50Speaker 4: to get Law too. She would trade up if if
- 37:55Speaker 4: there was, if there was a reasonable.
- 38:01Speaker 3: Level.
- 38:03Speaker 4: You know, when I say reasonable, you know you're not
- 38:06Speaker 4: gonna get in the top five, you know. And I
- 38:08Speaker 4: don't know if he would go in the top five.
- 38:10Speaker 4: But let's say that he's sitting there at ten, and
- 38:18Speaker 4: can you get to ten from seventeen to ten to
- 38:21Speaker 4: get a.
- 38:21Speaker 3: Guy like Sure you can, but it might cost you
- 38:24Speaker 3: more than you're willing to give up. And at some
- 38:26Speaker 3: point you need some cheap labor, you know. I mean,
- 38:28Speaker 3: you're starting to pay all this money out. You're gonna
- 38:31Speaker 3: need some rookie players on your team draft picks. What
- 38:35Speaker 3: do you mean pay all the money out? He just
- 38:37Speaker 3: paid Josh Allen quarterback, and hey, Luk's coming up. If
- 38:40Speaker 3: if you just paid a boatload of moneyed offensive line,
- 38:43Speaker 3: if I'm.
- 38:43Speaker 4: Paying a little guy like a lot too in this draft.
- 38:47Speaker 4: I'm okay with that.
- 38:48Speaker 3: Well I'm talking about that's yeah, but you need more
- 38:50Speaker 3: than just the first round guy. You need like the
- 38:52Speaker 3: second and third and fourth round players to fill your
- 38:55Speaker 3: roster out. That's saying, everybody, what are we doing?
- 38:58Speaker 4: That's what if you draft, well, that's what allows you
- 39:01Speaker 4: to manage your salary cap because your roster is full
- 39:04Speaker 4: of guys that are essentially fixed income.
- 39:06Speaker 3: If you put it all in the first round guy,
- 39:08Speaker 3: then you don't have anybody else that are rookies.
- 39:12Speaker 4: Well, I mean, but I'm just saying, though, if if
- 39:15Speaker 4: lat two is available, let's say you can, you're.
- 39:18Speaker 3: Going go get him, Go get him. I love it.
- 39:21Speaker 4: I love him, you know, and you know me, I don't.
- 39:23Speaker 4: I don't watch college football during the fall because I
- 39:26Speaker 4: watch so much NFL.
- 39:27Speaker 3: I just burnt.
- 39:28Speaker 4: I can't watch that much football. There's not enough time
- 39:30Speaker 4: in the day, and and so for me, you got
- 39:34Speaker 4: to take a mental break. So I don't watch a
- 39:35Speaker 4: whole lot of college football. But watching a lot two,
- 39:41Speaker 4: he's I don't know if he's blockable, and watching him
- 39:44Speaker 4: against some of the higher rated tackles in the draft,
- 39:52Speaker 4: he's wearing them out, wearing them out. They can't block him.
- 39:56Speaker 4: He lines up inside outside verse. This is another one
- 40:00Speaker 4: who's really good, by the way, the Florida State guy,
- 40:04Speaker 4: he's really good.
- 40:05Speaker 3: The guy at Alabama.
- 40:07Speaker 4: Uh eh, Dallas Turner.
- 40:10Speaker 3: I believe his name is.
- 40:12Speaker 4: Where's number fifteen at Alabama? I like him, but I
- 40:17Speaker 4: don't like him at seventeen. But verse.
- 40:23Speaker 3: A lot too. Oh yeah, your trick. You're going all
- 40:25Speaker 3: in for a lot GM Jeff Flag is going on.
- 40:28Speaker 4: I'm just telling to JP it's not I mean, it's
- 40:31Speaker 4: just you don't see a guy like this come along
- 40:34Speaker 4: very often. He's just he's rare. I don't want to
- 40:36Speaker 4: use that term that we used last year. It starts
- 40:39Speaker 4: with a G. Yeah, depends with an iteration. Ass on
- 40:42Speaker 4: that on the use of that word. We're back in
- 40:45Speaker 4: just a moment. Social media questions, Microsoft questions. In fact,
- 40:48Speaker 4: when we return, it's Jaguar's Happy Hour, brought to you
- 40:51Speaker 4: by the Saint Johns River Water Management District, Florida's water.
- 40:55Speaker 3: It's worth saving.
- 41:12Speaker 6: Everybody's competing for days the South.
- 41:14Speaker 5: And you know, I I still believe with Todd Dogs
- 41:17Speaker 5: and you know, and I'm gonna believe that. And you know,
- 41:22Speaker 5: the best in my mind, the best defensive front.
- 41:24Speaker 6: Is gonna win these games.
- 41:25Speaker 5: And I feel like we have a great opportunity to
- 41:27Speaker 5: be the best defensive front in our division, which is
- 41:29Speaker 5: gonna lead us on to bigger and better things.
- 41:32Speaker 6: So you know, I'm excited to get the work.
- 41:34Speaker 5: I'm decided to be around the guys again, and uh
- 41:37Speaker 5: know that this part is done and over with.
- 41:40Speaker 6: And now it is to how can we how can
- 41:42Speaker 6: we win a Super Bowl?
- 41:44Speaker 3: Josh Allen at this press conference yesterday. The full archive
- 41:48Speaker 3: Hunt Jaguars dot Com and Jaguars YouTube. Jaguars Happy Hour
- 41:50Speaker 3: brought to you by the Saint John's River Water Management District,
- 41:54Speaker 3: Florida's water It's worth saving.
- 41:57Speaker 1: J P.
- 41:57Speaker 3: Shadwick with Jeff Floggingmon. We're on teninexlam, Jaguars dot Com,
- 42:02Speaker 3: Jaguars YouTube winding down for the day and time now
- 42:07Speaker 3: for social media questions powered by Microsoft Nice. We put
- 42:12Speaker 3: out the cat signal earlier today. How many we got today? Well,
- 42:16Speaker 3: here are the three best that we've come up with,
- 42:18Speaker 3: three bringing on answer question number one at Van Diver
- 42:22Speaker 3: twenty one. By the end of his extension, will Josh
- 42:25Speaker 3: Allen be viewed as the best Jags defensive player. Ever,
- 42:30Speaker 3: I hope. So it's not a yes or though.
- 42:34Speaker 4: Come on, well, I mean, look, uh, I don't think
- 42:38Speaker 4: that can be a yes or no answer. I mean
- 42:40Speaker 4: it's I hope So, I mean, you hope that he
- 42:45Speaker 4: stays healthy. You hope that he continues to get better,
- 42:49Speaker 4: which I believe he will. But health is a big thing,
- 42:53Speaker 4: and so there's no way to predict good health. Knocking
- 42:57Speaker 4: on wood that he stays healthy. But if he stays healthy,
- 43:01Speaker 4: I believe that Josh Allen will be considered arguably one
- 43:06Speaker 4: of the best Jaguar defenders in history.
- 43:08Speaker 3: If he goes to three Pro Bowls in the next
- 43:10Speaker 3: five years. It's a great argument.
- 43:13Speaker 4: I mean, who who else is up there?
- 43:16Speaker 3: Who else? Who else has five Pro Bowls in their
- 43:19Speaker 3: time on defense?
- 43:20Speaker 4: I don't think there has been one ever, No, And
- 43:24Speaker 4: who has the most Pro Bowls in the Jaguars history
- 43:27Speaker 4: on defense?
- 43:29Speaker 3: An interesting question? Donovan a couple of times.
- 43:32Speaker 4: I don't think he did, because you know, Donald was
- 43:34Speaker 4: kind of a tackler.
- 43:35Speaker 3: Rackens didn't go, did he.
- 43:37Speaker 4: I don't think Brack went, you know, I want to
- 43:39Speaker 4: say Jalen went a couple of times. Yeah, yeah, he went,
- 43:42Speaker 4: certainly now once at least once or twice. I mean,
- 43:46Speaker 4: that's a great question, that might be a good trivia question.
- 43:48Speaker 4: Might already be tied for the most two kalas kalais
- 43:55Speaker 4: is here only you think of the best Jaguar defenders
- 43:59Speaker 4: in history were y Brackens kalais for a short period
- 44:04Speaker 4: of time. Obviously Darryl Smith I would put up there,
- 44:08Speaker 4: but they weren't.
- 44:09Speaker 3: They weren't getting the NFL accolades with that.
- 44:12Speaker 4: I don't I try not to use that as a
- 44:14Speaker 4: measuring stick because Jacksonville is smaller market, doesn't get the
- 44:18Speaker 4: national exposure. So you can't compare Pro Bowls with a
- 44:23Speaker 4: guy that's played in Jacksonville versus a guy that maybe
- 44:26Speaker 4: has played in New York.
- 44:27Speaker 3: Okay, it's very it's very different.
- 44:30Speaker 4: And that's why I think if you're an agent, I
- 44:31Speaker 4: think I'd be less likely or you'd want to be
- 44:33Speaker 4: less likely to tie that type of recognition to incentives.
- 44:39Speaker 4: You would like to have it maybe in another way, reachable,
- 44:43Speaker 4: reachable incentive instead of Pro Bowls because you know this
- 44:47Speaker 4: is a small market, you know the team hasn't been great,
- 44:50Speaker 4: the exposure hasn't been high, and you need exposure and
- 44:54Speaker 4: you need to be a good football team to gain
- 44:56Speaker 4: those type of accolades.
- 44:59Speaker 3: Next Ques question at jfix eighty eight. Which is more
- 45:03Speaker 3: likely to happen. The Jaguars trade up in the draft
- 45:05Speaker 3: to get a top receiver, or they trade for a
- 45:08Speaker 3: top veteran receiver such as Higgins, I Uk, et cetera.
- 45:14Speaker 3: I don't know if they necessarily.
- 45:15Speaker 4: Have to trade up, but I think I think a
- 45:17Speaker 4: wide receiver in the draft is definitely going to happen,
- 45:20Speaker 4: and I think it's going to happen fairly high, whether
- 45:22Speaker 4: it be in round one or round two. I think
- 45:25Speaker 4: that there could be a wide receiver taken. I don't
- 45:28Speaker 4: think that they're going to trade up. I don't think
- 45:30Speaker 4: this is a draft that you want to trade up.
- 45:33Speaker 4: You just said you would give the bank for a lot.
- 45:35Speaker 4: That's the only guy that's it. That's the only guy
- 45:38Speaker 4: I would do it for. Unless I was in need
- 45:41Speaker 4: of a quarterback, then obviously I would.
- 45:42Speaker 3: Then that's different.
- 45:43Speaker 4: I would give up a ton to get a Caleb
- 45:46Speaker 4: Williams or a Drake may or whatever, or you know.
- 45:49Speaker 3: One of those guys.
- 45:51Speaker 4: But I haven't watched anybody that i'd sit there and say, yeah,
- 45:55Speaker 4: you know what, I'm willing to.
- 45:56Speaker 3: Give up a lot.
- 45:57Speaker 4: Now, those the two top wide receivers, which Marvin Harrison
- 46:01Speaker 4: Junior is really good. But you know, the one guy
- 46:04Speaker 4: that I really like, his elite neighbors. He's special. There's
- 46:08Speaker 4: a lot of teams that think that. People think that
- 46:11Speaker 4: Marvin Harrison Junior is a slam dunk first wide receiver
- 46:14Speaker 4: pick overall.
- 46:15Speaker 3: I don't know about that.
- 46:16Speaker 6: He's good.
- 46:17Speaker 3: I think there's he's really good.
- 46:18Speaker 4: I know, but I mean, look here pretty good.
- 46:22Speaker 3: Yeah, he's really good too. But you turn on the
- 46:25Speaker 3: film and what that what that guy does?
- 46:26Speaker 4: I mean, he just gets great separation and uh and
- 46:30Speaker 4: I think the name also brings a little bit more
- 46:34Speaker 4: attention to Marvin Harrison Junior as it should. He's really good. No,
- 46:40Speaker 4: I'm not saying he's not good. I'm just saying, is
- 46:42Speaker 4: that Milik neighbors are really good too?
- 46:43Speaker 3: Yeah, really good. You know. So, I don't know. It's
- 46:48Speaker 3: a great debate. We'll find out in about four or
- 46:50Speaker 3: five years maybe at Dantonny Wilke is our final question today, Jeff,
- 46:55Speaker 3: if you had to guess what is the first down
- 46:58Speaker 3: starting lineup on the defense of line is Armstead going
- 47:02Speaker 3: to play three technique on first and second down. Yes, okay,
- 47:07Speaker 3: And now what's the starting lineup on first down?
- 47:12Speaker 4: You know, if you're playing a four down, which I
- 47:13Speaker 4: think they're going to play some four down this year.
- 47:16Speaker 4: Trayvon at left, in Devon Hamilton at knows, Eric Armstead
- 47:21Speaker 4: at three, Josh at the right defensive end, and then
- 47:26Speaker 4: your two linebackers, which Uh and Devin, and then the
- 47:32Speaker 4: corners with Tyson. Antonio Johnson will be at one safety
- 47:36Speaker 4: with Cisco at the other one, and then the other corner.
- 47:41Speaker 4: You know, we'll see what happened in the draft.
- 47:42Speaker 3: May not be on the roster, you may not be,
- 47:45Speaker 3: and then Nickel will be one of the guys they
- 47:47Speaker 3: signed a free agency most likely maybe yeah.
- 47:49Speaker 4: Maybe, unless somebody develops. You might get somebody in the
- 47:53Speaker 4: draft to you never know. Look, and here's the reality
- 47:55Speaker 4: to Antonio Johnson can play safety and he can play
- 48:00Speaker 4: nicol Right, So I mean great positional flexibility with him,
- 48:05Speaker 4: very similar to Hamilton, Kyle Hamilton and Baltimore. He's got
- 48:09Speaker 4: a similar skill.
- 48:10Speaker 3: Set's saying something Kyle Hamilton can play, I know he
- 48:13Speaker 3: can play.
- 48:14Speaker 4: I think Antonio Johnson can play too. And I mean
- 48:17Speaker 4: Hamilton is everywhere my whole What round was he?
- 48:21Speaker 3: I don't know. Something ridiculous, Okay, because we had this
- 48:24Speaker 3: discussion about who was the best late round pick in
- 48:27Speaker 3: Jaguars history, and Telvin Smith's name popped out of my
- 48:31Speaker 3: into my mind, and no, Kyle Hamilton was the first round.
- 48:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm talking about Antonio Johnson. I knew Kyle Hamilton
- 48:38Speaker 4: was the first round pick. Come on JP first. Many
- 48:42Speaker 4: people thought he should be the first overall pick of
- 48:44Speaker 4: the draft. Antonio Johnson fifth round pick. Okay, we had
- 48:48Speaker 4: this discussion. I think it was last week. Wasn't it
- 48:51Speaker 4: about this?
- 48:51Speaker 3: Okay?
- 48:53Speaker 4: And I'm mistaken. I should have I should have said,
- 48:56Speaker 4: and I believe this. I believe Antonio Johnson will go
- 48:59Speaker 4: down as one of the best late round picks the
- 49:02Speaker 4: Jaguars I've ever had.
- 49:05Speaker 3: But you gotta go play. I want to go play.
- 49:08Speaker 3: But I'm just telling you that he was hurt. Remember
- 49:10Speaker 3: he hears him.
- 49:11Speaker 4: Harold string early in camp and then he ended up
- 49:13Speaker 4: missing the first you know, probably month of the season,
- 49:16Speaker 4: and they slowly worked him back in. But I'm just
- 49:20Speaker 4: telling you what I'm seeing, and I'm seeing a guy
- 49:22Speaker 4: that's got he's got a tremendous skill set and I
- 49:26Speaker 4: think he's gonna have a huge impact with his football team,
- 49:28Speaker 4: and I think he's gonna end up being one of
- 49:31Speaker 4: the best late round picks in Jaguars history.
- 49:36Speaker 3: You have it. The social media questions powered by Microsoft
- 49:40Speaker 3: are in for the day, and that will about do
- 49:43Speaker 3: it for our show. Congrats again to Josh Allen signing
- 49:46Speaker 3: his extension five year deal. But what a money is
- 49:48Speaker 3: he gonna buy his dinner now? I hope so one night.
- 49:50Speaker 3: He's always welcome in the studio, Let's put it that way,
- 49:53Speaker 3: and he will pop by on occasion, and two weeks
- 49:57Speaker 3: away from the NFL Draft, we'll have another show again
- 49:59Speaker 3: next week, and then all of a sudden we'll be
- 50:02Speaker 3: counting down the days and we have a draft show
- 50:04Speaker 3: and then that's coming up. We're gonna be live during
- 50:06Speaker 3: the draft. We'll do this show from the draft to
- 50:09Speaker 3: normal time, and then you guys will have the Draft
- 50:11Speaker 3: show after that and you're doing social media.
- 50:13Speaker 4: I have Jaguars, you don't know, Okay, a lot of stuff.
- 50:16Speaker 4: You'll probably jump on with us at something. I'm going
- 50:18Speaker 4: to guess, so I might just walk over there. Jumping
- 50:20Speaker 4: is dangerous we'll be we'll be in the TV studio
- 50:24Speaker 4: of the or should I say the National Broadcast booth
- 50:26Speaker 4: at the stadium. That's exactly we're gonna have a great
- 50:29Speaker 4: view of all the action.
- 50:31Speaker 3: That's Jeff Logoman. I'm JP Shadwick.
