Shad Khan 1on1, Doug Pederson Press Conference & More From Owners Meetings | Week in Review: March 31 · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

0:05
Speaker 1: This is the Jaguars Broadcast Weekend Review Podcasts presented by
0:09
Speaker 1: TIAA Bank. I'm JP Shadrick with the best of the
0:12
Speaker 1: week from Jags Radio, Jaguars dot Com, and our social
0:15
Speaker 1: channels Jaguars Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. It's Friday, March thirty first,
0:20
Speaker 1: and we're coming up on two weeks from the start
0:22
Speaker 1: of the offseason program. Phase one waits in conditioning that
0:26
Speaker 1: opens April seventeenth, and we're inside a month to the
0:29
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three NFL Draft. The NFL calendar never really
0:33
Speaker 1: slows down, and it was a busy week. At the
0:36
Speaker 1: NFL Annual Meeting in Phoenix, Arizona, Jaguars owner Shot Con
0:39
Speaker 1: sat down for a one on one conversation with Jaguars
0:42
Speaker 1: dot Com senior writer John Osier. And after the success
0:45
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty two season and the foundation for
0:48
Speaker 1: success on the field moving ahead, it's a good feeling
0:51
Speaker 1: coming into the owners meetings. For the Jaguars owner, it's awesome.
0:55
Speaker 1: It's really really awesome to you know, to have had
1:00
Speaker 1: the success we've had last season, and more importantly, I
1:05
Speaker 1: think the anticipation not only for me, but really you know,
1:10
Speaker 1: the media that's here and just the folks in general.
1:15
Speaker 1: Tell me about your reception from other owners, maybe the
1:19
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and then when you see him, Now, what
1:21
Speaker 1: are they saying to you? What's the vibe you get
1:23
Speaker 1: from them? I guess, well, the vibe I get is that,
1:30
Speaker 1: you know, I think we've cracked the code. You know,
1:34
Speaker 1: we've got a great head coach, We've got a great
1:37
Speaker 1: general manager, and we have a great quarterback. And that's
1:41
Speaker 1: the trifecta for success in the NFL. And you're enjoying it.
1:45
Speaker 1: You've waited a while to have this feeling enogy. Yeah,
1:48
Speaker 1: I mean absolutely. I think it's taken a while, but
1:54
Speaker 1: I'm glad it's happening. I'm glad for me, I'm glad
1:56
Speaker 1: for all the fans on the field. What was your
1:58
Speaker 1: biggest Maybe give me your best memory from last year's
2:02
Speaker 1: This team creates so many memory, so many moments. It's
2:05
Speaker 1: what stands out to you? Well, I mean what stands
2:08
Speaker 1: out for me really, you know, in my experience as
2:12
Speaker 1: ownership is the coming from behind. I mean the consistently
2:17
Speaker 1: coming from behind, which you know has been unique in
2:21
Speaker 1: my ownership experience, that we're so far down and the
2:25
Speaker 1: fans hanging with us, you know, right down to the
2:29
Speaker 1: bitter end till the game's over and we won the game.
2:32
Speaker 1: Honest answer here, how many times did you give up
2:34
Speaker 1: hope and then have them I prove you wrong? Well,
2:40
Speaker 1: I'm always hopeful. Sure, Okay, I'm an optimistic person. And
2:46
Speaker 1: so you know, now over the years, bad things have
2:49
Speaker 1: happened to us, you know, at those times have gone
2:53
Speaker 1: the wrong way. So but really, when you look at
2:55
Speaker 1: it early in the season, I think they were like
2:58
Speaker 1: six games early in the seas season we had lost.
3:00
Speaker 1: We were leading them, you know, late in the fourth quarter,
3:04
Speaker 1: and then you end up losing them. So this is
3:07
Speaker 1: where the script flips and um, you know, and it
3:12
Speaker 1: obviously makes it super exciting and I'm glad it's gone
3:16
Speaker 1: that way. The full conversation with Jack's owners shot con
3:18
Speaker 1: available on Jaguars dot Com now. The best of the
3:21
Speaker 1: AFC Coach's Breakfast with head coach Doug Peterson Monday, starting
3:26
Speaker 1: with the difference this offseason and maintaining the roster as
3:29
Speaker 1: opposed to building through expensive free agency. Looking back to
3:33
Speaker 1: last year, there were some things we had to we
3:36
Speaker 1: had to clean up, we had to fix, We had
3:37
Speaker 1: to add some guys you know, some impact players, you know,
3:40
Speaker 1: which we did this year. It was about trying to
3:43
Speaker 1: get our guys back, the UFAs on our roster, to
3:47
Speaker 1: try to get them back. And it's the you know,
3:49
Speaker 1: it's the hardest thing every year with free agency because
3:52
Speaker 1: you know you're gonna lose some guys. You know you're
3:54
Speaker 1: gonna lose some some great guys, which we which we have.
3:58
Speaker 1: But at the same time, we had enough guys still
4:01
Speaker 1: on our you know UFAs that we got back that
4:05
Speaker 1: Um still give us that depth we need and still
4:08
Speaker 1: give us that the youth that we need and the
4:11
Speaker 1: competition that we need. And you know, our philosophy with
4:16
Speaker 1: when I say our, with myself and Trent Um, you know,
4:21
Speaker 1: you don't want to if you don't have to spend
4:24
Speaker 1: a lot of resources in free agency, don't do it right.
4:28
Speaker 1: You want to be able to build through the draft
4:30
Speaker 1: and and keep your team, you know, keep your team
4:32
Speaker 1: coming from the draft up. So you know, that was
4:35
Speaker 1: kind of the the difference I think this offseason than
4:39
Speaker 1: last who Jack's offense took huge strides as the season
4:42
Speaker 1: went along and in the second half improved dramatically. How
4:46
Speaker 1: can it take the next step? Yeah, I think the
4:48
Speaker 1: number one thing that we saw as a staff, UM's
4:53
Speaker 1: just some of the little execution things, the detailed things. Um,
4:57
Speaker 1: guys are going to be much more u comfortable with
5:01
Speaker 1: the offense, more comfortable with the defense, their roles within both.
5:06
Speaker 1: You know, Um, I think I think, you know, for Trevor,
5:10
Speaker 1: it's just understanding. Now he knows, he knows Christian AND's
5:13
Speaker 1: A and Evan, and he knows all those guys around him.
5:16
Speaker 1: It's just now we need to we need to get better.
5:19
Speaker 1: We need to get better in the passing game. We
5:21
Speaker 1: need to we need to take it up another another notch.
5:24
Speaker 1: And you know Travis Etn, Jamichael Hasty, Snoop Connor. You know,
5:28
Speaker 1: guys in the running game, we've got to be better
5:30
Speaker 1: at at at at angles, we got to be better
5:33
Speaker 1: at hitting holes. We got to see the whole better.
5:35
Speaker 1: There's just those little detailed things that now in year
5:37
Speaker 1: two we'll be able well year two for us, it's
5:40
Speaker 1: year three for them, but um, that they'll be able
5:42
Speaker 1: to see and and and we can show them now
5:45
Speaker 1: on tape this spring. Um, those those issues and that's
5:49
Speaker 1: where we get that's where we get better, and that's
5:51
Speaker 1: where we take another step. It's just the the details
5:54
Speaker 1: of what we're doing, uh in all three phases, and
5:57
Speaker 1: um you know that's why this offseason will be siding
6:00
Speaker 1: to get the guys back and and we're not We're
6:04
Speaker 1: not necessarily installing the offense again or the defense again. Right,
6:08
Speaker 1: it's now it's just how we make it better and
6:10
Speaker 1: how we use our players better, um in in certain situations.
6:14
Speaker 1: Quarterback Trevor Lawrence played huge in the second half of
6:17
Speaker 1: the season, of course, and according to Peterson, it should
6:20
Speaker 1: jump start his success moving ahead. I mean the way
6:23
Speaker 1: he finished the season last year. Um, the way our
6:25
Speaker 1: offense finished, and I mean I just lead the way
6:27
Speaker 1: our team finished and and that's something that we can
6:30
Speaker 1: carry into the off season. UM, something that I'm looking
6:34
Speaker 1: forward to as again as we get the guys back.
6:37
Speaker 1: But that that jump for Trevor, um, you know, is
6:41
Speaker 1: going to be He's no longer starting at the ground.
6:44
Speaker 1: He's he's now he's he's elevated himself. And so we
6:47
Speaker 1: just start there and we work we work up and
6:50
Speaker 1: and UM you know, it's it's exciting to uh uh
6:54
Speaker 1: to be able to do that and and have the
6:56
Speaker 1: energy that that we felt at the end of the season.
6:58
Speaker 1: I think we'll still feel that energy, uh as we
7:00
Speaker 1: head into the off season program. I truly believe that heat.
7:03
Speaker 1: There's so much more for him and and and he's
7:07
Speaker 1: he wants that, you know, and he's willing to He's
7:09
Speaker 1: willing to do what it takes to to work and
7:12
Speaker 1: and uh, that's what you want, um as the leader
7:16
Speaker 1: of your football team, right and and that that rubs
7:18
Speaker 1: off on the rest of your team. Now to the defense,
7:21
Speaker 1: in the first few weeks of the season and in
7:23
Speaker 1: the final month of the season, the Jags d took
7:26
Speaker 1: the ball away at a pretty good pace, but overall,
7:28
Speaker 1: the Jaguars struggled to make a consistent impact against opposing quarterbacks.
7:33
Speaker 1: And that's priority number one for Peterson. On the defensive side,
7:36
Speaker 1: you know, I think we got to improve our pass rush.
7:39
Speaker 1: I think that's that's uh, that's vital, particularly on third down.
7:42
Speaker 1: You know, I thought we were we were good in
7:43
Speaker 1: the run. We just got to continue to get better
7:45
Speaker 1: in the run and and and show up some things there.
7:47
Speaker 1: But you know, I think to the passing game is
7:50
Speaker 1: the area that we have to look at and address
7:52
Speaker 1: this offseason. And and um, you know, clean that part
7:55
Speaker 1: of it up and it all starts up front, putting
7:57
Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback. And whether we're doing that with
8:00
Speaker 1: four guys or five guys, Um, you want to see
8:03
Speaker 1: Treyvon take take that next step in year two. You know,
8:06
Speaker 1: you want to see Josh come along again as an
8:08
Speaker 1: edge rusher, you know, and and and really in his
8:11
Speaker 1: fifth year, you know, make an impact you know with
8:14
Speaker 1: the team, and and UM, you know, we're confident that
8:17
Speaker 1: both those guys can do that. We're we were excited
8:19
Speaker 1: to extend Roy, you know, and get him back. And
8:22
Speaker 1: you know, I think, I think the Photocosci is a
8:24
Speaker 1: guy that can really make another step in the in
8:26
Speaker 1: the in the right direction, within the scheme. And so
8:29
Speaker 1: the pieces are there, um, and now it's just a
8:31
Speaker 1: matter of continuing to coach and and uh improve in
8:35
Speaker 1: all areas. Twenty twenty two number one overall picked. Trayvon
8:38
Speaker 1: Walker is a key piece for the Jags, of course,
8:41
Speaker 1: and he has a bright future ahead. You know, I
8:43
Speaker 1: love Treyvon's his compete. I loved his length, as athleticism,
8:47
Speaker 1: his strength, UM. Love the way he practices the preparation.
8:51
Speaker 1: I think, I think one of the things that that
8:53
Speaker 1: I appreciated with Treyvon is how he he kind of
8:58
Speaker 1: improved because you know, some of these young guys don't
9:02
Speaker 1: know how to study the game as well, and being
9:04
Speaker 1: able to show him how to study, what to look for,
9:06
Speaker 1: who to study, study great edge rushers in our game,
9:09
Speaker 1: and and try to take some takeaways from that. And again,
9:14
Speaker 1: there's so much room for improvement with him, just like
9:16
Speaker 1: it's like Trevor, we can only go we can only
9:18
Speaker 1: go up right, and and he can be a really
9:21
Speaker 1: dominant impact player for US. And this will be a
9:26
Speaker 1: good plus he's had. He'll have an offseason to kind
9:29
Speaker 1: of rest too. Right last year he was blowing and
9:32
Speaker 1: going with thirty visits to combine all that stuff, and
9:35
Speaker 1: now he's had a chance to kind of recover. He'll
9:38
Speaker 1: get back in the weight room and start working on
9:41
Speaker 1: us craft. Another first round pick from last year is
9:43
Speaker 1: also looking to steady his play. It's linebacker Devin Lloyd,
9:47
Speaker 1: who at one point was taken out of the starting
9:50
Speaker 1: lineup last year. But Peterson has confidence in his ability
9:53
Speaker 1: moving forward. It's high. It's high, a lot of confidence him.
9:57
Speaker 1: He really improved throughout the course of the year for US.
10:00
Speaker 1: Um took a step in the right direction. I think,
10:02
Speaker 1: I think a couple of games in there where where
10:04
Speaker 1: we kind of kept him on the sideline a little bit,
10:07
Speaker 1: you know, as the backup guy. Uh really made an
10:10
Speaker 1: impact for him. And he's another one of those guys
10:12
Speaker 1: just learning how to learning how to prepare, learning how
10:15
Speaker 1: to how to study, how to you know, to understand
10:19
Speaker 1: the game plan. His role within the game plan. Are
10:23
Speaker 1: all things that he's going to benefit from, you know,
10:25

12:14
Speaker 1: John Osier was CBS Sports senior writer Pete Prisco and
12:17
Speaker 1: the improvement expected from year one to year two, led
12:20
Speaker 1: by Doug Peterson. How much can a team grow? Doug
12:25
Speaker 1: Peterson talked about it a lot, but that growth year two,
12:28
Speaker 1: year three or year one year two in an offense?
12:31
Speaker 1: What can that mean? Have you seen an example of
12:34
Speaker 1: any recent I mean sort of latch onto when you
12:36
Speaker 1: go from in year one, for example, if you're a rookie,
12:40
Speaker 1: you go to the combine, you do your stuff, you
12:42
Speaker 1: get ready for the combine. You're not really focusing on
12:44
Speaker 1: getting your body. You're getting combined body ready or arm ready.
12:47
Speaker 1: If there's a Trevor's situation. Then you get in there,
12:50
Speaker 1: your head spin and you're learning a new offense. You're
12:51
Speaker 1: head spinning. Install, Install, Install, You get the camp and
12:55
Speaker 1: now you got live boats and still spinning. And so
12:57
Speaker 1: you get to the season and God bless somebody had
13:00
Speaker 1: to deal with the embarrassment that was urban Meyer and
13:03
Speaker 1: that was a disaster for him. And so now you
13:05
Speaker 1: flush that out. You're learning a whole new system and
13:08
Speaker 1: you get a head coach in Doug Peterson, who's great
13:10
Speaker 1: for the quarterback. And here, now you play through the
13:12
Speaker 1: whole season and it took you a while to get
13:14
Speaker 1: up to where you should be, and you saw it
13:16
Speaker 1: throughout the second half of the season. Now you come
13:18
Speaker 1: into the offseason, you know the offense, you know your
13:20
Speaker 1: head coach, you know your receivers, and all of a sudden,
13:23
Speaker 1: you go, oh, this is the way it's supposed to be.
13:26
Speaker 1: And that's where Trevor Larks is. And by the way, continuity,
13:30
Speaker 1: we look at the Chiefs because they've been one of
13:32
Speaker 1: the one of those teams that's around, stay around teams.
13:35
Speaker 1: Why the core guys, it starts with them. As long
13:38
Speaker 1: as you have the quarterback, that's the first and foremost.
13:40
Speaker 1: But you have Kelsey, you have Chris Jones. You don't
13:43
Speaker 1: need a ton of core guys. You just need some
13:45
Speaker 1: and the quarterback will make sure you are around for
13:48
Speaker 1: a long time, particularly in Jacksonville. How much I thought
13:53
Speaker 1: Doug's money quote and it wasn't you know one you
13:58
Speaker 1: put out on Twitter. It wasn't line grabber, but he said,
14:02
Speaker 1: they have there is availability. We won't be installing the
14:06
Speaker 1: offense and defense we're starting at a base and we're
14:10
Speaker 1: just basically taking what worked and growing from there. That
14:15
Speaker 1: to me said everything. It's it's so much better for
14:18
Speaker 1: the players. I mean, all you gotta do. And I
14:20
Speaker 1: do think they're gonna tweak defense. I mean they haven't
14:23
Speaker 1: come out and quite said that yet, but I think
14:25
Speaker 1: there's gonna be some tweaks on defense. They're hitting at it.
14:27
Speaker 1: They haven't said it, but you hear rumblings like maybe
14:30
Speaker 1: they're gonna do some different things on defense. Maybe Trayvon
14:33
Speaker 1: Walker's gonna play more with his hand on the ground.
14:35
Speaker 1: I mean, that's provided you gotta find somebody who can
14:37
Speaker 1: rush the passer. But maybe they play, you know, more
14:40
Speaker 1: of a conventional four three in some situation. So I
14:42
Speaker 1: think it's gonna it's gonna change a little bit. Now
14:45
Speaker 1: how that changes, who knows. There's I think they're still
14:47
Speaker 1: trying to figure it out. But for a guy like
14:49
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd and this was told to me, but he
14:52
Speaker 1: came out of college, they didn't have motion and pre
14:55
Speaker 1: snap all this stuff, and so he gets to the NFL,
14:58
Speaker 1: he misses most of camp right with the amstring injury,
15:01
Speaker 1: gets to the games and all of a sudden, his
15:03
Speaker 1: head's spending and you can see it on tape every
15:05
Speaker 1: every almost every player, Louikhan's telling him work the line up.
15:07
Speaker 1: So he hurt Aluican because he wasn't focused on what
15:10
Speaker 1: he was doing to get him lined up. Now he's
15:12
Speaker 1: gonna understand what he should be doing better. That's important.
15:15
Speaker 1: That's growth. Somebody explains to me this way with Devin
15:17
Speaker 1: Lloyd and to degree with Chad Muma, that there was
15:22
Speaker 1: maybe a half step of hesitation because of what you're
15:26
Speaker 1: talking about. That flash of recognition. Play starts takes you
15:33
Speaker 1: just that long and then but you're a step behind
15:35
Speaker 1: the whole plot. Correct. The difference in seeing it immediately
15:39
Speaker 1: and being a step behind for those two guys can
15:43
Speaker 1: mean everything. And I assume Trevor Walker a little different,
15:46
Speaker 1: but a little bit the same. That recognition that they
15:49
Speaker 1: will see they won't have to think as much next. Well,
15:51
Speaker 1: the linebackers, it's it's s go, see go, and those
15:54
Speaker 1: guys were c think go, and when you're see think go,
15:58
Speaker 1: you don't get there. And they missed tackle that way.
16:00
Speaker 1: And they had a lot of people. I mean, I'll
16:01
Speaker 1: give you a perfect example. Guy who showed the growth
16:04
Speaker 1: we're talking about throughout the season. Last year, Andre Cisco.
16:08
Speaker 1: Right early season, there were questions about him. I mean,
16:12
Speaker 1: let's be real, they thought he'd come in be a
16:13
Speaker 1: big time playmaker. There were questions about him. As the
16:16
Speaker 1: season went on, you could see him starting to get
16:19
Speaker 1: more confident in what he was doing and playing smarter
16:22
Speaker 1: and faster. And that's what you're gonna get from a
16:24
Speaker 1: lot of these second year players this year. The Ozone
16:26
Speaker 1: Podcast on the Official Jaguars Podcast Network, moving out to
16:30
Speaker 1: the Huddle Up Podcast Wednesday, Bucky Brooks and I got
16:33
Speaker 1: into the expectations of scoring for the offense moving ahead
16:36
Speaker 1: to move into the elite offenses in the National Football League.
16:40
Speaker 1: I would think with Doug Peterson, the offense being his baby,
16:44
Speaker 1: the magic number that he's gonna talk to the team
16:46
Speaker 1: each year is thirty. You get to thirty points each week,
16:48
Speaker 1: it's gonna be thirty. You get the thirty points, you're
16:50
Speaker 1: gonna win games in this league. And it takes the
16:52
Speaker 1: pressure off the defense being a what we call a
16:55
Speaker 1: shut him down defense to being an opportunistic defense, which
16:58
Speaker 1: is what we ended up having last season, taking the
17:01
Speaker 1: ball away, getting timely stops in the red zone, making
17:03
Speaker 1: just a handful of players to be able to get
17:05
Speaker 1: off the field to win it. But the pressure, the unit,
17:09
Speaker 1: the side of the ball that should carry the water
17:11
Speaker 1: has to be the offense because that's where not only
17:14
Speaker 1: where the resources have been kind of expended, but that's
17:18
Speaker 1: where I would say the best players are. Your quarterback,
17:21
Speaker 1: you think about all the white house, do you think
17:23
Speaker 1: about Travis gets in in the backfield. The offense has
17:27
Speaker 1: to be ready to go each and every week. I'll
17:30
Speaker 1: say this, and typically you want the defense to kind
17:32
Speaker 1: of guide you to the championship, but offensively, no off days,
17:36
Speaker 1: they have to be able to hit that number. It
17:38
Speaker 1: has to be thirty points, and so there'd be a
17:40
Speaker 1: lot of pressure. I think you'll see maybe a more
17:43
Speaker 1: ornery Doug Peterson in terms of demanding a little more
17:47
Speaker 1: from the offense because he understands if this offense gets
17:50
Speaker 1: up and running again, they can be one of the
17:51
Speaker 1: top two or three scoring offenses. The Jaguar's gonna win
17:54
Speaker 1: a ton of games next season. It's a scoring league.
17:57
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't you're not winning games. This is
18:00
Speaker 1: not the two thousand Ravens. They're not you know, you're
18:02
Speaker 1: not building on defense and winning it. You know, seventeen
18:06
Speaker 1: seven anymore. No, but it's a different look for us
18:09
Speaker 1: because I remember now for the Jacks, every time the
18:11
Speaker 1: Jacks has been good has been less about the offense
18:14
Speaker 1: and more about the defense. Saxonville and going all the
18:16
Speaker 1: way back is about the defense making plays. This will
18:19
Speaker 1: be a flip because maybe for the first time in
18:21
Speaker 1: franchise history, we're talking about an offense that is high powered.
18:25
Speaker 1: I mean putting points up on the board, lightening it up,
18:27
Speaker 1: and so Jo I give him a hard time. John
18:31
Speaker 1: Osh is always like, man, let's put it in the air. Well,
18:33
Speaker 1: they're going to put the ball in the air because
18:35
Speaker 1: now the firepower is in place and Doug Peterson is
18:38
Speaker 1: very comfortable with the quarterback to make it happen like that. Bucky,
18:41
Speaker 1: you mentioned something earlier and you know about Calvin Ridley
18:45
Speaker 1: and what to maybe expect from him, and I don't
18:49
Speaker 1: exactly remember what you said, but you said, maybe temperate
18:51
Speaker 1: a little bit. What can we expect from Italy? What
18:54
Speaker 1: should fans expect from Itdley in terms of a number
18:58
Speaker 1: or you know, it's his first time on the field
19:01
Speaker 1: in a year and a half. Yeah, first I'm on
19:03
Speaker 1: the field in a year and a half. That's why
19:04
Speaker 1: I say temperate, because he has to knock some of
19:06
Speaker 1: the rust off. It's hard to go that long without
19:09
Speaker 1: playing and kind of hit the ground running. That said,
19:12
Speaker 1: if the Calvin Ridley that is that was last on
19:16
Speaker 1: the field, the one that was the top five in
19:17
Speaker 1: terms of receiving yards, a guy to stepped in and
19:19
Speaker 1: replace Julio Jones as the Falcon's number one receiver, If
19:22
Speaker 1: that guy makes his way to do ball, it's gonna
19:24
Speaker 1: be a problem. It's gonna be a problem because he
19:27
Speaker 1: is similar to what we have, but a little different.
19:29
Speaker 1: Spectacular route runner, very interchangeable in terms of where he
19:33
Speaker 1: can line up on the field, terrific pass catcher, and
19:37
Speaker 1: the big plate element could come from Calvin Ridley because
19:41
Speaker 1: not because of the speed factor, but because he is
19:43
Speaker 1: such a route runner. And if he can begin to
19:46
Speaker 1: command attention as a number one, now you'll see Christian Kirk,
19:49
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram, and Zay Jones, you can see their numbers
19:52
Speaker 1: explode because now defenses have to account for that. Because
19:56
Speaker 1: remember last year, teams were able to kind of play
19:58
Speaker 1: the Jaguars straight up. The didn't necessarily commit double teams
20:02
Speaker 1: on occasion, maybe they would go after Evan Ingram, maybe
20:05
Speaker 1: they would kind of do Christian kirtin the slot. Well, now,
20:08
Speaker 1: if you have to commit a full double team, that
20:09
Speaker 1: means everyone else is in one on one situations. And
20:12
Speaker 1: so let's put it this way. If I'm in the
20:16
Speaker 1: offensive room, what you put up is for one thousand
20:19
Speaker 1: yard numbers, meaning three wide receivers that hit the thousand
20:23
Speaker 1: yard mark Travisy and ten is over a thousand yards rushing.
20:27
Speaker 1: You do those things, now your offense, as a byproduct
20:31
Speaker 1: of that production of your offense does get close to
20:33
Speaker 1: thirty points tonight. A lot of podcast runs each Wednesday
20:35
Speaker 1: afternoon on the Official Jaguars podcast network. We wrapped this
20:39
Speaker 1: week with Jaguars Happy Our Radio Thursday afternoon. I asked
20:43
Speaker 1: Jeff Logerman about the expected improvement from last year's number
20:46
Speaker 1: one overall pick, outside linebacker Trayvon Walker. How does Trayvon
20:50
Speaker 1: Walker take a step? What does that look feel like
20:53
Speaker 1: for the former number one overall pick? Well, I think
20:57
Speaker 1: number one is is it. You need to figure out
20:59
Speaker 1: where he's going to be best at, and that's that's
21:02
Speaker 1: a I think a coaching staff decision where they're going
21:05
Speaker 1: to have to look at it and say, hey, look,
21:07
Speaker 1: what's the best position that he can help us win?
21:11
Speaker 1: Is that focusing on one position, is that playing multiple positions?
21:18
Speaker 1: Is that inside outside? Does he need to gain weight,
21:22
Speaker 1: does he need to lose weight? I mean, all of
21:24
Speaker 1: those things I think are on the table to find
21:27
Speaker 1: out what role does he provide the best impact for
21:31
Speaker 1: this football team. I think his best position would be
21:36
Speaker 1: more in line with the defensive end and a four
21:38
Speaker 1: three type of system. But this team has been running
21:42
Speaker 1: a three four system. Could they tweak it a little
21:45
Speaker 1: bit and ye, maybe run a little bit more four
21:47
Speaker 1: three principles. I mean, if it's good for the team, okay,
21:52
Speaker 1: then you maybe look at that. What's the best position
21:55
Speaker 1: for Devin Lloyd? Right, there's another one, ye first round?
22:00
Speaker 1: Can you do more with him as far as having
22:04
Speaker 1: him be more of an edge edge presence with this
22:07
Speaker 1: defense instead of being an in control linebacker that's in
22:13
Speaker 1: a two point stands four yards deep trying to cover
22:16
Speaker 1: guys down the field too. You know, and look, he's
22:19
Speaker 1: got to be able to do that, But the percentages
22:22
Speaker 1: of doing that versus lining up on the line of
22:25
Speaker 1: scrimmage and maybe being a guy coming off the edge.
22:28
Speaker 1: Maybe you want to find a way to be able
22:29
Speaker 1: to do some of that well with him. More so,
22:32
Speaker 1: those are the questions I think that this coaching staff
22:36
Speaker 1: went into the all season one self evaluation and then
22:39
Speaker 1: number two, now where do we go from here? I
22:42
Speaker 1: guarantee you that was at the top of their list.
