- 0:01Speaker 1: It is Thursday, May twenty. This is check Wise Happy Hour.
- 0:10Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour is brought to you by Duval Motor
- 0:13Speaker 1: Company and now the real reason behind the chicken wing shortage.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Jenny pus Charge, Yes, welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour presented
- 0:27Speaker 1: by the Duval Motor Company. J P. Shadrick, Jeff Flagman along. Shortly,
- 0:32Speaker 1: we have a program today. Phase two continues in the
- 0:36Speaker 1: off season program with near full participation from the Jaguars,
- 0:41Speaker 1: a lot of energy around the organization. We'll hear from
- 0:44Speaker 1: Shaquille Griffin, Jaguar's Corner. Caught up with him yesterday after
- 0:48Speaker 1: practice and get his thoughts on everything going on with
- 0:51Speaker 1: the Jaguars. A gentleman named Tim Tebow signed a contract
- 0:55Speaker 1: today with the Jags and he is now a member
- 0:57Speaker 1: of the organization as a type in. We'll get to that.
- 1:01Speaker 1: We'll go around the National Football League as well. Jeff Lagman,
- 1:05Speaker 1: we got some some big time tight end news today.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Luke Farrell signed his rookie contract. That's that's you know. Yeah,
- 1:14Speaker 1: of course everybody's talking about Tebow. But I'm concerned about
- 1:18Speaker 1: the chicken wings short real. It's real, it's real, and
- 1:21Speaker 1: it's not spectacular for real. Yes, I mean as leon
- 1:27Speaker 1: seriously been eating all the child I don't know Livin
- 1:31Speaker 1: Pepper is gone. I don't know, so here we go.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Didn't seriously, I didn't know that that's a concern, right,
- 1:37Speaker 1: prices are going up because I guess in the chickens
- 1:41Speaker 1: get COVID or something. Well, no, that there's still chickens.
- 1:44Speaker 1: I don't think there's enough people that take the wings
- 1:46Speaker 1: off the chickens at the beginning stages of the process.
- 1:51Speaker 1: So there's now a shortage. Interesting. I love a chicken wing,
- 1:54Speaker 1: don't you. Yes, don't we all our thigh's Okay, I
- 1:57Speaker 1: don't know. That wasn't on the list of the road. Okay,
- 2:00Speaker 1: then you know I'm gonna make it because you know,
- 2:02Speaker 1: you can take the bone out of a thigh and
- 2:05Speaker 1: uh and flatten it out and it's actually much better
- 2:09Speaker 1: than a wing in my opinion. Thank you for that
- 2:11Speaker 1: saying it's a food tip of the day. So just
- 2:14Speaker 1: chicken wings, no thighs or endangered You know, I needed
- 2:17Speaker 1: a little more research into this to be really be
- 2:19Speaker 1: fully prepared on this topic. I was not expected to
- 2:22Speaker 1: discuss just trying to delay the inevitable. Yeah, I know, well,
- 2:25Speaker 1: let's we'll slay it a little bit more. We'll get
- 2:27Speaker 1: to uh Tim Tebow coming up in just a little bit.
- 2:31Speaker 1: I wasn't trying to delay that conversation. I was trying
- 2:34Speaker 1: to delay the shot Griffin interview you had. Okay, we'll
- 2:38Speaker 1: delay that also. We'll get to that coming up a
- 2:41Speaker 1: little bit later as well. It is phase two of
- 2:43Speaker 1: the off season program, so individual drills only. There's no
- 2:48Speaker 1: team work against each other. Um. You know, they are
- 2:51Speaker 1: pretty specific in phase two. It's only a three or
- 2:53Speaker 1: four day process this week in Phase two and then
- 2:56Speaker 1: phase three, the O c A periods start next week,
- 3:00Speaker 1: where you'll see a little bit more of the team's stuff,
- 3:02Speaker 1: but still no pads. They'll have some helmets on starting
- 3:05Speaker 1: next week, but near perfect participation. Only a couple of
- 3:09Speaker 1: guys out yesterday, for sure. DJ Chark was out yesterday.
- 3:13Speaker 1: He and his wife had their first baby, so he
- 3:16Speaker 1: was gone to congratulations to that, right fully voluntary period
- 3:20Speaker 1: of course, in the off season, it's a new regime,
- 3:23Speaker 1: new coaching staff, a lot of new players around here,
- 3:27Speaker 1: and it seems like everybody is on track here to
- 3:30Speaker 1: try to get things going the right way. Early. It
- 3:33Speaker 1: feels like, well, look, I think there's always a lot
- 3:35Speaker 1: of energy. Not always, but I mean for the most part,
- 3:38Speaker 1: there's a lot of energy and a lot of excitement
- 3:40Speaker 1: to be able to get back onto the field, and
- 3:41Speaker 1: especially to get back onto the field with a little
- 3:43Speaker 1: bit of normalcy. You're not having the the social spacing
- 3:48Speaker 1: on the field and and trying to keep guys separate.
- 3:51Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what percentage and this I'd
- 3:54Speaker 1: be curious to know this because the reason a lot
- 3:56Speaker 1: of these things are happening because the vac the nation schedule.
- 4:01Speaker 1: I'm sure it has been been very good for this
- 4:04Speaker 1: football team and many teams around the National Football League.
- 4:07Speaker 1: And I would love to know the percentage of players
- 4:09Speaker 1: that are vaccinated around the National Football League by now,
- 4:12Speaker 1: and hopefully that number is very high. So but I'm
- 4:16Speaker 1: sure for the players this is this is great. And
- 4:19Speaker 1: when I say it's great, think about it. And that
- 4:22Speaker 1: the Union back in the springtime tried to discourage a
- 4:26Speaker 1: lot of participation in the in the O t A s,
- 4:28Speaker 1: in the practices and such which I mean, you had
- 4:31Speaker 1: that conversation and we thought it was very ridiculous to
- 4:34Speaker 1: have that conversation, very aggressive on Twitter the p A
- 4:37Speaker 1: was putting all this stuff out on behalf of teams
- 4:39Speaker 1: and stuff. And you're seeing league wide now that the
- 4:42Speaker 1: participation is very high, I mean very high in some
- 4:46Speaker 1: cases ninety plus percent in a lot of cases, that's
- 4:50Speaker 1: where it's at. And and I think also because the
- 4:54Speaker 1: players didn't have the ability or the chance to do
- 4:59Speaker 1: what they quickly do, which is what they're doing now,
- 5:01Speaker 1: last year it made a miss it and and I
- 5:04Speaker 1: brought up the topic to you JP and how we were.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I was disappointed in the union and trying to to
- 5:09Speaker 1: make that narrative of discouraging players to be there when
- 5:12Speaker 1: there's so much to benefit from that injury protection, camaraderie,
- 5:18Speaker 1: a chance to get better, a chance to compete and
- 5:21Speaker 1: get better physically because you work out better when you're
- 5:24Speaker 1: working out in a competitive environment. And so I mean,
- 5:27Speaker 1: it's just good to see the partition participation high and
- 5:31Speaker 1: the energy high. And I'm sure the players are excited
- 5:34Speaker 1: to be back together and to be bonding, especially when
- 5:37Speaker 1: you've got you have a positive energy. And the reason
- 5:40Speaker 1: you have a positive energies because you have some momentum,
- 5:44Speaker 1: you have a new coach who has been wildly successful
- 5:47Speaker 1: you have a new quarterback who has been wildly successful,
- 5:52Speaker 1: and so when you're a part of that team, when
- 5:56Speaker 1: you have a chance to be good, the excitement and
- 5:59Speaker 1: the energy is upbeat, and you want to be a
- 6:02Speaker 1: part of it. You want to participate in you want
- 6:04Speaker 1: to get better yourself so that you can help the
- 6:07Speaker 1: whole the whole goal of the situation. So so I'm
- 6:10Speaker 1: excited for him, you know, just because they're they're getting
- 6:12Speaker 1: back to doing football things, and it's been a while
- 6:15Speaker 1: since they've been able to do some of these things.
- 6:16Speaker 1: We haven't seen any of this offseason stuff last year
- 6:19Speaker 1: because of the COVID nineteen business. So it was nice
- 6:23Speaker 1: to see the rookie minicamp last weekend, at least one
- 6:25Speaker 1: day of it. A little bit yesterday had a chance
- 6:28Speaker 1: to walk out there and see some of the practice.
- 6:30Speaker 1: And then next week, I think Wednesday's second o T
- 6:33Speaker 1: a period of the ten is open to the media
- 6:37Speaker 1: as well, so you're getting a glimpse and getting a
- 6:39Speaker 1: chance to see what things are all about. And that's
- 6:41Speaker 1: really the exciting part of this thing. Fired up finally well,
- 6:44Speaker 1: and and they're working towards something. And and last year
- 6:48Speaker 1: when you committed to to that young team. And we
- 6:53Speaker 1: had this conversation and we were doing it virtually because
- 6:56Speaker 1: we weren't in the same room, right, but we were
- 6:59Speaker 1: going man of all the years, to commit to a
- 7:02Speaker 1: youthful roster. This was not the year just because you're
- 7:06Speaker 1: you're doing things in a virtual fashion, you weren't having
- 7:10Speaker 1: the ability to develop a young quarterback that you're expected
- 7:13Speaker 1: to start the season with. And so thank goodness that
- 7:17Speaker 1: you have gone back to some normalcy with a new
- 7:19Speaker 1: coach and a new quarterback. Let's get to the big
- 7:23Speaker 1: story of the day though around the Jaguars. Of course,
- 7:26Speaker 1: there's a big high school baseball games done that was Yeah, sure,
- 7:31Speaker 1: that's what I'm referring to. Of course. This morning, uh,
- 7:34Speaker 1: Tim Tebow signed his contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars as
- 7:38Speaker 1: a tight end. After all the hooplah over the last
- 7:40Speaker 1: few weeks about him getting some tryouts with the team
- 7:45Speaker 1: and then possibly signing with the team, he did sign
- 7:49Speaker 1: with the team today and in the announcement he had
- 7:52Speaker 1: a statement saying, you wanted to thank the Jacks for
- 7:54Speaker 1: the opportunity to compete and earned the chance to be
- 7:56Speaker 1: a part of the team. I know it will be
- 7:58Speaker 1: a challenge, but it is a challenge, Gi Embrace. I'm
- 8:00Speaker 1: dedicated to taking the direction of our coaching staff and
- 8:03Speaker 1: learning from my teammates. I appreciate everyone's support as I
- 8:06Speaker 1: embarked on this new journey. End quote. That's Tim Tebow
- 8:10Speaker 1: and the of course, his NFL career spanned three seasons
- 8:13Speaker 1: as a quarterback, played a number of years in minor
- 8:16Speaker 1: league baseball in the Mets organization, and just this spring
- 8:20Speaker 1: retired from baseball. I was also doing SEC network analysts
- 8:25Speaker 1: work a lot of times and a few other things. Obviously,
- 8:27Speaker 1: he's all over the place, but now he's back in
- 8:30Speaker 1: the NFL giving it a go at tight end. And
- 8:34Speaker 1: what if I would have told you wearing number eighty five,
- 8:36Speaker 1: by the way, yes, is this jersey number? If I
- 8:40Speaker 1: told you two years ago that Urban Meyer, Trevor Lawrence,
- 8:43Speaker 1: and Tim Tebow would be on the same team at
- 8:45Speaker 1: the same time, what would you have told me, You're crazy? Uh?
- 8:51Speaker 1: But I would have been excited for it and uh
- 8:54Speaker 1: and mostly excited for Urban Meyer and Trevor Lawrence. The
- 8:59Speaker 1: Tim Tebow thing, I think it's a it's a nice story,
- 9:04Speaker 1: but it's not. It's not the main story. The main
- 9:06Speaker 1: story with his football team is urban Meyer and Trevor Lawrence.
- 9:10Speaker 1: And this tebow stuff is certainly getting a lot of airplay,
- 9:16Speaker 1: and it's getting a lot of conversation across the nation
- 9:19Speaker 1: and great um. But the big story really with this
- 9:24Speaker 1: football team is Trevor Lawrence and Urban Meyer and and
- 9:28Speaker 1: and for me, I look, I think it's cool that
- 9:32Speaker 1: that this has become a story. Does it need to
- 9:36Speaker 1: be a story? Probably not. He's a thirty three year
- 9:39Speaker 1: old football player who has never really played the position.
- 9:45Speaker 1: If that has enough way to carry the story, I'm
- 9:48Speaker 1: kind of confused here. You know. I think it's cool
- 9:52Speaker 1: that he's trying to do it, and I, like I
- 9:54Speaker 1: told you last week, I don't have a problem with
- 9:56Speaker 1: it because ninety guys, when you go to camp, there's
- 9:59Speaker 1: ten fifteen guy as. You can sit there and say,
- 10:01Speaker 1: these guys essentially all they are is blocking dummies. They're
- 10:03Speaker 1: not gonna make it their bodies, their camp bodies. So
- 10:07Speaker 1: is taking one of those positions and allowing what has
- 10:11Speaker 1: been a very good athlete, great athlete to some extent,
- 10:15Speaker 1: to try out at the age of thirty three a
- 10:17Speaker 1: new position. Does Does that make a lot of sense? Probably? Not.
- 10:21Speaker 1: But does it take away from And I've heard people say, oh,
- 10:24Speaker 1: it takes away an opportunity of of a legitimate player.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Give me a break. I mean, like I said, there's
- 10:30Speaker 1: ten of fifteen guys on on a ninety man roster
- 10:32Speaker 1: that have no chance. They really had a chance, they'd
- 10:36Speaker 1: be on a roster right now anyway. And here here's
- 10:38Speaker 1: the other thing. Irban Meyer has been wildly successful as
- 10:44Speaker 1: a head coach, right, I mean wildly success. So I
- 10:49Speaker 1: kind of I kind of trust him and that you know, look,
- 10:52Speaker 1: he's got a method to whatever he is trying to
- 10:55Speaker 1: be doing. And I'm sure that there's a reason that
- 10:58Speaker 1: he deems to be very important for bringing in Tim
- 11:01Speaker 1: Tebow to play tight end, and and if he thinks
- 11:05Speaker 1: it's good enough, I'm okay with it. And is it
- 11:10Speaker 1: is it a thing where people do, oh well? And
- 11:12Speaker 1: I've heard people say that they can't believe that Jaguars
- 11:15Speaker 1: come on, which we're talking about one position on a
- 11:19Speaker 1: ninety man roster. But here's the thing. Now that Tim
- 11:23Speaker 1: Tebow signed a contract and he's wearing the black and teal,
- 11:28Speaker 1: now he has to do his part, which first and
- 11:31Speaker 1: foremost means he's got to earn the respect to the
- 11:34Speaker 1: locker room. And I'm not talking about earning the respect
- 11:37Speaker 1: to the locker room just by being a solid guy,
- 11:40Speaker 1: a nice guy. I'm talking about he has to show
- 11:43Speaker 1: the ability that he can play football, that he can
- 11:46Speaker 1: help them, that he can help this football team. If
- 11:49Speaker 1: he can't show that, then I think the players will
- 11:52Speaker 1: sit there and look at him as kind of as
- 11:55Speaker 1: a side show, and we'll say, what is he doing here?
- 12:00Speaker 1: You know it? Because if his skill set shows that
- 12:02Speaker 1: he doesn't belong, the players in that locker room will
- 12:06Speaker 1: embrace him. I don't care how good of a guy
- 12:09Speaker 1: he is. The locker room is about can you help
- 12:12Speaker 1: us win. If you can help us win, you'll be embraced.
- 12:16Speaker 1: If you can't help us win, you will not be embraced.
- 12:20Speaker 1: A simple as that. Well, the process is underway. He
- 12:24Speaker 1: was on the field today in Phase two, and we'll
- 12:27Speaker 1: get our first look at him next week. Wednesday, I
- 12:30Speaker 1: think is the first o t a practice that is
- 12:32Speaker 1: open to the media, and I'm sure coverage will follow.
- 12:37Speaker 1: We've got plenty ahead on Jaguars Happy Hour. We'll hear
- 12:40Speaker 1: from Shaquille Griffin when we come back. Jaguars cornerback. Caught
- 12:44Speaker 1: up with him yesterday after practice get his thoughts on
- 12:47Speaker 1: the off season program so far, and a little later
- 12:50Speaker 1: we'll hear from Urban Meyer on some of the rookies,

- 16:52Speaker 1: to that point. And you're gonna hear me talk about
- 16:54Speaker 1: pushing people to the edge and the edges, this edges
- 16:58Speaker 1: where average stops and he begins visualize that for a minute.
- 17:02Speaker 1: That's why there's only one champion at the end of
- 17:04Speaker 1: the ye. It's not the best talent all the time.
- 17:06Speaker 1: It's a group of people that do what learn to
- 17:08Speaker 1: fight through the edge. You get to that age, you
- 17:11Speaker 1: fight through it. The best players I've had are the
- 17:13Speaker 1: ones that fight through the edge. Oh yeah. Episode three
- 17:19Speaker 1: of the Hunts coming up tonight seven o'clock on Jaguars
- 17:23Speaker 1: dot Com and the Jaguars YouTube channel. That was head
- 17:27Speaker 1: coach Irvan Meyer and this is Jaguars Happy Hour presented
- 17:31Speaker 1: by the Duval Motor Company. J P. Shadrick, Jeff Blagman.
- 17:35Speaker 1: The edges where average stops and elite begins. Blogs. According
- 17:42Speaker 1: to head coach Urban Meyer, got you that's inside access
- 17:45Speaker 1: to a team meeting. I wonder at what point, because
- 17:48Speaker 1: you know we're seeing First of all, the show is fantastic.
- 17:52Speaker 1: I've watched it. It's really a real nice inside peak
- 17:55Speaker 1: glimpse into some of the inner workings of a football team.
- 18:00Speaker 1: But I'd be curious to know from a league wide standpoint,
- 18:04Speaker 1: because you saw the NFL has backed off on some
- 18:08Speaker 1: of the requirements as far as masking and such, when
- 18:12Speaker 1: are they going to go back to? I mean, because
- 18:14Speaker 1: now you're on the field with players, at what point
- 18:17Speaker 1: will you go back to having a classroom like in
- 18:21Speaker 1: person meetings instead of instead of what we're seeing, which
- 18:25Speaker 1: is the virtual situation. So now, because I will say
- 18:30Speaker 1: that it's got to be hard to get to know
- 18:33Speaker 1: your coaches from a virtual standpoint, you know, I mean,
- 18:37Speaker 1: it's part of I think the enjoyment of playing professional
- 18:41Speaker 1: football and playing sports is having the interaction and um
- 18:45Speaker 1: and certainly it's about relationships and and those relationships develop
- 18:49Speaker 1: when you get to spend time with people. And I'm
- 18:52Speaker 1: not talking about spending time over a monitor. I'm talking
- 18:55Speaker 1: about spending time in person with people so fully they
- 19:00Speaker 1: can get back to doing some of those things that
- 19:02Speaker 1: are even more normal than uh, just the stuff on
- 19:06Speaker 1: the field that they're seeing. Now. Shakille Griffin is a
- 19:09Speaker 1: new addition to the Jaguars this offseason, free agent addition
- 19:13Speaker 1: out of the Seattle Seahawks, the highest pay an addition
- 19:17Speaker 1: in the off season. Yeah, that's a lot of money
- 19:19Speaker 1: going his way, which you know, look, he's that that's
- 19:21Speaker 1: the market. I'm not bringing that up to to to
- 19:25Speaker 1: be negative in any way. I bring it up because
- 19:28Speaker 1: when you get the free agency, you're trying to get
- 19:31Speaker 1: some of the best of the best. And so when
- 19:33Speaker 1: you want to get some of the best of the best.
- 19:35Speaker 1: There there is a price to pay, and he was
- 19:38Speaker 1: the most expensive Jaguars free agent acquisition I think, right,
- 19:41Speaker 1: I mean correct. I couldn't think of another one, and uh,
- 19:46Speaker 1: really good football player, really good football players. So I'm
- 19:50Speaker 1: looking forward to watching him play because I think he's
- 19:52Speaker 1: gonna be He's gonna be a great addition. We caught
- 19:54Speaker 1: up with him after practice yesterday and he's new. There's
- 19:58Speaker 1: a lot of new around him, obvious you in that
- 20:00Speaker 1: secondary trying to build that camaraderie. He had some thoughts
- 20:03Speaker 1: about the offseason program so far, the energy around the
- 20:07Speaker 1: Jaguards organization. There's an energy out of here. It feels
- 20:10Speaker 1: like music is going after practice, a lot of participation
- 20:14Speaker 1: and that's a good thing. You're new to this program
- 20:16Speaker 1: here too, so what do you feel like the first
- 20:18Speaker 1: few days? Oh? Man, Uh, it's it's a different experience
- 20:20Speaker 1: and it feels good. And I feel like the reason
- 20:22Speaker 1: why we have almost a perfect attendance is because you
- 20:24Speaker 1: have guys who believe in something special. You know, Mays
- 20:27Speaker 1: was the first one to believe by taking his job
- 20:28Speaker 1: and knowing that we can turn things around, and then
- 20:30Speaker 1: he got the guys he wanted to get you know,
- 20:32Speaker 1: draft went great, and now everybody here ready to get better,
- 20:35Speaker 1: the way to improve, ready to change the world and
- 20:37Speaker 1: the way they view us in Jacksonville. So you know,
- 20:40Speaker 1: I start off with Maya's first, and then the good
- 20:41Speaker 1: thing is if Mayer's believing it, we believe in it,
- 20:43Speaker 1: and we believe in him. So that's that's the reason
- 20:45Speaker 1: why we have almost a perfect attention, because everybody wants
- 20:47Speaker 1: to do great, everyone wants to do better. So, man,
- 20:50Speaker 1: this feeling has been unexplainable at the moment you got
- 20:52Speaker 1: here in free agency and then is urban as advertised
- 20:56Speaker 1: in meeting rooms? You know, that's that's the kind of
- 20:59Speaker 1: the sales pitching free agency, all that you don't know
- 21:01Speaker 1: if it's real? What is it? How's it feeling real? Like? Man,
- 21:04Speaker 1: he's the same as he portrayed. You know, he loved winners.
- 21:07Speaker 1: You know, he knows how to win, you know what
- 21:09Speaker 1: it takes. And now he's getting everybody to believe in
- 21:11Speaker 1: that same thing. You know. It's the same energy day
- 21:13Speaker 1: in and day out, you know, and he can care
- 21:15Speaker 1: about what everybody else say, what everybody else thinks. He
- 21:17Speaker 1: believes in his players that he got in his team.
- 21:19Speaker 1: So we got a coach like that, you know, already
- 21:21Speaker 1: to run through a brick wall from you know, because
- 21:23Speaker 1: this type confidence that he having us, you know, as
- 21:25Speaker 1: the as the organization, so you know, as as advertised,
- 21:28Speaker 1: you know exactly what you get, you know, and that's
- 21:30Speaker 1: that's Urban not and I love him for you know,
- 21:32Speaker 1: I feel like everybody else love him too. For that. Man,
- 21:34Speaker 1: we're ready for great things. Urban's big on the performance
- 21:37Speaker 1: side of this business, to strength and conditioning, everything that
- 21:42Speaker 1: goes into that. And it's not just lifting weights after practice.
- 21:45Speaker 1: I'm sure everybody has their own programmers. Yeah, no doubt.
- 21:48Speaker 1: And the thing is he want to give us the
- 21:50Speaker 1: best opportunity to be great. So he got coaches in
- 21:52Speaker 1: his staff that that's perfect, you know, that's tend to everybody.
- 21:56Speaker 1: And pacific positions and that's different because you know, it's
- 21:58Speaker 1: easy to just put the line old line you got dvs.
- 22:01Speaker 1: You know it's that weight that weight class is different.
- 22:03Speaker 1: But now that he's he's attacking certain areas for bigger guys,
- 22:07Speaker 1: take certain areas for faster guys. You know, I can
- 22:09Speaker 1: tell the type of work they put in and put
- 22:11Speaker 1: the group together to make sure that we at our
- 22:13Speaker 1: best when it comes to this season, and you know
- 22:15Speaker 1: that's the best part of body. You know, he breaking down.
- 22:17Speaker 1: He want to make sure we have the best of
- 22:18Speaker 1: the best, and he's had showing that, and then the
- 22:20Speaker 1: staff continue to show that, and man, it's the perfect
- 22:23Speaker 1: I'm ready to get back in shape. Perfect shape is possible.
- 22:25Speaker 1: So you know, I'm excited for him and I'm loving
- 22:27Speaker 1: I'm love being here. You know you're new here, but
- 22:30Speaker 1: a lot of guys in the second area are new
- 22:32Speaker 1: here too. This is the time of year to build
- 22:34Speaker 1: that camaraderie, that chemistry as a defensive backfield. And how
- 22:38Speaker 1: important are these next three or four or five weeks.
- 22:41Speaker 1: Oh man, it's very important. You know when we started early.
- 22:44Speaker 1: You know, every Tuesday since I've been here, I haven't
- 22:46Speaker 1: had my house yet, but you know, right in my apartment,
- 22:48Speaker 1: you know, I take the guys every Tuesday, will have
- 22:51Speaker 1: Taco Tuesday. You know we're about to pool get a chance.
- 22:53Speaker 1: And you know, this is guys who I never met
- 22:54Speaker 1: before the first time. So I'm breaking them all in.
- 22:56Speaker 1: You know, I'm accepting them, that they're accepting me. And
- 22:59Speaker 1: you know, we have our go Tuesday. Every Tuesday, we
- 23:01Speaker 1: get a chance to get together speaking, a chance to
- 23:03Speaker 1: understand everybody's story, everybody family, because that's what I'm going
- 23:06Speaker 1: to battle for. I wanted you to know that you
- 23:07Speaker 1: can count on me to protect you in your family.
- 23:09Speaker 1: Why I'm not on this field, and we're already starting
- 23:11Speaker 1: to build that. So I'm trying to get everybody the
- 23:13Speaker 1: same page. You know. Uh, the second week here, I
- 23:15Speaker 1: took the whole defense out, you know, to what it was.
- 23:18Speaker 1: I forgot. It's like text day, Brazil, I forgot. There
- 23:21Speaker 1: we go, that's exactly what That's exactly where we went
- 23:23Speaker 1: to the whole defense out and now like one of
- 23:25Speaker 1: the best spin because you know, these are things that
- 23:27Speaker 1: they weren't used to and now it's just something I
- 23:29Speaker 1: can count on, you know, you know throughout the whole year.
- 23:31Speaker 1: You know, you've got them office days, we go and
- 23:32Speaker 1: watch fam we get a chance to interact. You know,
- 23:35Speaker 1: these are guys, so I'm competing with the guys who
- 23:36Speaker 1: I'm going to battle with. I want you to better
- 23:38Speaker 1: trust me and I can trust you. So we gotta
- 23:40Speaker 1: started that need. Next couple of weeks, next three weeks
- 23:42Speaker 1: is gonna be just so important throughout even when you
- 23:43Speaker 1: go to camp and you go through the season. Every
- 23:45Speaker 1: week is important to get a chance to get closer
- 23:47Speaker 1: every single day. Favorite kind of tonko in place where
- 23:50Speaker 1: you get the taco Tuesday, I didn't rotate, man um,
- 23:55Speaker 1: I really gotta go with the chicken and shrimp, you know,
- 23:58Speaker 1: and then every now and then by switch up and
- 24:00Speaker 1: I got and then when I feel a little fancy,
- 24:03Speaker 1: I just do one of each. But no, you know,
- 24:06Speaker 1: tacos don't get old. I think the tacos every single
- 24:09Speaker 1: day month at the Sunday, which I think is a
- 24:11Speaker 1: good thing. But I could That's Shaquille Griffin, Jaguar's cornerback.
- 24:16Speaker 1: Thanks for the visit yesterday after the phase to practice,
- 24:20Speaker 1: and uh got to catch up with him first time.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Did I hear him say that he took the entire
- 24:25Speaker 1: defense to dinner, to Phogo, to chow, Yes, the Brazilian steakhouse. Yes.
- 24:30Speaker 1: I want to hang out that guy, me too. More interviews, Shack.
- 24:35Speaker 1: Good for him, I'll never forget. And Uh, when I
- 24:40Speaker 1: was a young player, we had, you know, some some
- 24:43Speaker 1: pretty good veterans. But then when Pete Carrol's our defensive coordinator,
- 24:47Speaker 1: Bruce Colls, it was our head coach, and then free
- 24:50Speaker 1: agency hit the National Football League and we were able
- 24:54Speaker 1: to acquire at that time a couple of guys that
- 24:58Speaker 1: have the US respect for One of those, Arn't Monk,
- 25:02Speaker 1: who was tremendous leader by example. Ronnie Lott came aboard,
- 25:09Speaker 1: Leonard Marshall, Boomer Size and some of these guys that
- 25:12Speaker 1: were great players in the National Football League. And Ronnie
- 25:15Speaker 1: Lott really brought in kind of what Shack Griffin is
- 25:18Speaker 1: is talking about there about trying to team build away
- 25:22Speaker 1: from the facility to where you get to know your teammates.
- 25:26Speaker 1: And Ronnie did some of that. Ronnie actually would because
- 25:29Speaker 1: this is going back to a time when in the
- 25:32Speaker 1: National Football League. You know, now you have performance trainers,
- 25:36Speaker 1: you have dietitians, you have chefs that are brought on board,
- 25:40Speaker 1: the meals are cooked for players when the O t A.
- 25:43Speaker 1: S are going on like they are now. Back in
- 25:46Speaker 1: that era, they didn't have any of that. We didn't
- 25:48Speaker 1: have any of that. We didn't even have meals brought in,
- 25:52Speaker 1: which was crazy. I mean, we were there at the
- 25:54Speaker 1: building all day and if you wanted lunch, you had
- 25:59Speaker 1: in the car and go get lunch, Go get lunch.
- 26:01Speaker 1: I mean you had to go to the Delhi or
- 26:02Speaker 1: bring it in like a brown paperbag. And Ronnie when
- 26:05Speaker 1: he came in, he started bringing in catering so that
- 26:10Speaker 1: after the work day we would watch film together as
- 26:13Speaker 1: a group and uh and I was like, wow, this
- 26:17Speaker 1: is awesome. But it was just one of those things
- 26:19Speaker 1: that he brought with them from the championships that he
- 26:22Speaker 1: had won with the forty niners, and that's how they
- 26:25Speaker 1: did it. That's how they got better as the team.
- 26:28Speaker 1: So when I when I hear that Shack is doing
- 26:31Speaker 1: something like that, I mean, for me, I think that
- 26:33Speaker 1: that's impressive because you got when that's hard to do
- 26:36Speaker 1: for a young guy to come in and take a
- 26:39Speaker 1: leadership role even though you're a veteran player, because sometimes
- 26:42Speaker 1: there's not a comfort level in doing that. But having
- 26:45Speaker 1: somebody that you bring in that is comfortable taking on
- 26:49Speaker 1: that role and aggressive and doing so love it. There
- 26:52Speaker 1: is a lot of new around him too, as we
- 26:55Speaker 1: referenced in that interview. I mean in theory, four of
- 26:58Speaker 1: the five starters in the secondary it could be new
- 27:02Speaker 1: guys at the organization this year. C. J. Henderson might
- 27:04Speaker 1: be the only one could be new. It could be
- 27:07Speaker 1: I mean, and that's a lot of change. And I
- 27:10Speaker 1: think just this organization is going to even undergo more
- 27:13Speaker 1: change and in another year. I mean because typically in
- 27:16Speaker 1: the first couple of years, once you have a new coach,
- 27:19Speaker 1: you have a tremendous amount of turnover in the first
- 27:21Speaker 1: couple of years. So that's not to be unexpected. You
- 27:24Speaker 1: hope that that doesn't happen, because then it just takes
- 27:26Speaker 1: more time to get to where you want to be. UM.
- 27:30Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, that's a that's a lot of turnover,
- 27:32Speaker 1: a lot of change, a lot of new There's a
- 27:34Speaker 1: lot of change last year as well in the secondary.
- 27:37Speaker 1: But there's reasons I gotta say this, JP because you know,
- 27:40Speaker 1: last Saturday, when we had the opportunity to watch a
- 27:45Speaker 1: day of the Rookie Minicamp, I really enjoyed it for
- 27:49Speaker 1: from the standpoint of I like the tempo, I like
- 27:53Speaker 1: the organization. I like the way that they went about
- 27:56Speaker 1: their business in that Rookie Mini can you rookie Mini
- 28:01Speaker 1: camps that I've seen in the past, there was always
- 28:05Speaker 1: this we gotta go fast, we gotta go fast and
- 28:08Speaker 1: in your and it was almost trying to shock the
- 28:12Speaker 1: rookie system mentally and physically it was what I've seen
- 28:17Speaker 1: and historically, not just here but in other places as well.
- 28:21Speaker 1: And I like the way that it was just a
- 28:23Speaker 1: little bit different and that it had a real nice
- 28:27Speaker 1: teaching element to it, because I mean, when these young
- 28:32Speaker 1: players come in, they don't know what they're doing. And
- 28:35Speaker 1: I've been there. I'll never forget jp when when my
- 28:39Speaker 1: linebacker coach handing me a playbook and his name was
- 28:42Speaker 1: Jim Vicarella, hand me a playbook and said here you
- 28:44Speaker 1: go learn it, and it was one of the and
- 28:47Speaker 1: I was like, well, when are we gonna be able
- 28:49Speaker 1: to meet and to you know, to and now there's
- 28:52Speaker 1: your playbook. I mean that's kind of the attitude that
- 28:54Speaker 1: was taken. And whereas look, i mean, now, look, you
- 28:57Speaker 1: depend on young players to play. They gotta contribute you,
- 29:00Speaker 1: and it's your job as a coach and as a
- 29:02Speaker 1: staff to get them up to speed as fast as
- 29:05Speaker 1: you possibly can. And so I liked the tempo and
- 29:08Speaker 1: I like the way that they were teaching in the
- 29:10Speaker 1: rookie Minicamp and obviously a short glimpse at it for
- 29:12Speaker 1: the one day that we were able to watch it,
- 29:14Speaker 1: but I'm looking forward to watching next week's o tier
- 29:17Speaker 1: where you got the entire group, you know, and seeing
- 29:20Speaker 1: how that tempo is and because you can't ever lose
- 29:23Speaker 1: that element of learning, because that learning is about development,
- 29:27Speaker 1: and that's developing the guys that you have on your
- 29:29Speaker 1: roster to making them better players so you can become
- 29:31Speaker 1: a better team. Let's come back and we will get
- 29:34Speaker 1: into some of those performances in that Rookie Minicamp this
- 29:39Speaker 1: past Saturday and some highlights Trevor Lawrence, Travis etn. And
- 29:43Speaker 1: we'll hear from Urban Meyer on Walker Little when we

- 34:10Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick, Jeff Logerman, Glad you're along with us today.
- 34:14Speaker 1: We've covered the Tim Tebow story. We heard from Shaquille
- 34:17Speaker 1: Griffin a little bit earlier. Jaguars cornerback Trevor Lawrence. There
- 34:22Speaker 1: we touched briefly on rookie minicamp last weekend. This is
- 34:25Speaker 1: the first chance you and I have had to sit
- 34:27Speaker 1: down since then. You know, Trevor was not doing Trevor,
- 34:31Speaker 1: we haven't haven't met him in person. Lawrence was um
- 34:35Speaker 1: was not doing handoffs or taking snaps from center as
- 34:39Speaker 1: a precaution because of that left shoulder. Let me ask
- 34:41Speaker 1: you a question, but did you see a center out
- 34:45Speaker 1: there in rookie Minicaan did not so, but he was
- 34:50Speaker 1: throwing the ball around a little bit. He was on
- 34:51Speaker 1: a pitch count. Urban said, but uh, you know it
- 34:55Speaker 1: does come out of his hand rather nicely. I'll say
- 34:57Speaker 1: that that's an understatement. Yeah mean he's he uh, he
- 35:02Speaker 1: looks at the part. I can tell you that and
- 35:06Speaker 1: all the years of watching young quarterbacks come into Jaguar's camp.
- 35:10Speaker 1: I've never nothing has ever made me go wow. I mean,
- 35:15Speaker 1: this guy makes you go wow. The ball, how he
- 35:20Speaker 1: throws it, his placement, his accuracy, his velocity, his footwork.
- 35:26Speaker 1: He just makes it. I don't want to say makes
- 35:28Speaker 1: it look easy, because it's not easy. But he's gifted
- 35:32Speaker 1: and there's there's no doubt. I mean, that's why he
- 35:35Speaker 1: was the consensus first overall picking the draft. That's why
- 35:41Speaker 1: many people said that a few years ago that he
- 35:43Speaker 1: was going to be the first overall picking the draft
- 35:45Speaker 1: when he was a freshman Clemson. I mean it, he
- 35:49Speaker 1: has an incredible amount of talent and it's gonna be
- 35:53Speaker 1: fun to watch him. And they just need to do
- 35:57Speaker 1: and make make sure that they do a good job
- 36:00Speaker 1: with giving him the best possible environment to succeed that
- 36:04Speaker 1: they can. And it looks like they're working towards that,
- 36:07Speaker 1: because that's not something that you just it just you,
- 36:10Speaker 1: you know, flip the switch and then all of a
- 36:11Speaker 1: sudden it's there. I mean, it's a it's a constant
- 36:14Speaker 1: process that is ever evolving, and you have to continue
- 36:18Speaker 1: to provide input and resources to it. And I'm sure
- 36:21Speaker 1: that they're gonna do everything that they can. But I'm
- 36:23Speaker 1: gonna tell you right now, JP, he is the real
- 36:26Speaker 1: deal now, I mean, to make no mistake about it.
- 36:29Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is the real deal. It sounds like maybe
- 36:33Speaker 1: towards the end of O T A s around that
- 36:35Speaker 1: mini camp Erbert Meyers said he should be close to
- 36:39Speaker 1: and able to do pretty much everything. That's a good
- 36:42Speaker 1: sign everything. But they're just being cautious. Yeah, I mean,
- 36:46Speaker 1: if they if they wanted to let him do everything.
- 36:48Speaker 1: I mean, and remember now, the surgery was on a
- 36:50Speaker 1: non throwing shoulder, so I mean, um, is that an issue? No?
- 36:55Speaker 1: I mean three months it's healed. Is he at risk
- 36:57Speaker 1: of hurting it? And no? Is it smart to make
- 37:01Speaker 1: sure that you take it a little bit slow because
- 37:03Speaker 1: you can. Yes, and uh and and they're doing the
- 37:07Speaker 1: right thing and uh not taking snap from center during
- 37:11Speaker 1: Ricky minicamp. A lot of people kind of made a
- 37:13Speaker 1: big deal out of that, But then again, let me
- 37:15Speaker 1: point out there was not a center on the field.
- 37:18Speaker 1: There was two offensive linemen and one was a garden,
- 37:21Speaker 1: one was a tackle. That was it. That's the only
- 37:24Speaker 1: two offensive line and you had on the field. So
- 37:27Speaker 1: uh and does Jimmy Luck snap that Jeff snap the
- 37:32Speaker 1: criminal guys that I know of Jeff to Luca, I
- 37:35Speaker 1: don't think that he's big enough to but it's but
- 37:39Speaker 1: it was it was fun watching him throw. And and
- 37:41Speaker 1: really when quarterbacks, I mean, there's a lot of quarterbacks
- 37:46Speaker 1: that can throw football that a receiver can catch. The
- 37:50Speaker 1: special quarterbacks throw the ball to where it puts the
- 37:55Speaker 1: person that's catching the ball in the best possible position.
- 37:59Speaker 1: And what I mean by that watching film and also
- 38:03Speaker 1: watching him in practice, if the receiver and a receiver
- 38:07Speaker 1: can be a tied end and running back of a
- 38:08Speaker 1: wide receiver, doesn't matter. The person who's catching the ball, okay,
- 38:12Speaker 1: is essentially a receiver. If if he can catch the
- 38:16Speaker 1: ball in stride without having a hitch or a change
- 38:20Speaker 1: in his momentum or anything like that, it makes it
- 38:23Speaker 1: better for the receiver. If the quarterback throws it behind
- 38:27Speaker 1: the receiver to make him slow down because there's impending contact,
- 38:32Speaker 1: if he were to throw it on time and allow
- 38:34Speaker 1: the receiver to be in stride, that's beneficial to the receiver.
- 38:37Speaker 1: I mean that's the way that Trevor Lawrence throws the football.
- 38:41Speaker 1: He has a very innate ability to place the ball
- 38:46Speaker 1: where it needs to be to benefit the receiver, which
- 38:48Speaker 1: benefits the team. And it's just it's it's a joy
- 38:51Speaker 1: to watch. I mean, some receivers when they're young, or
- 38:53Speaker 1: quarterbacks when they're young, you're just happy that they get
- 38:56Speaker 1: a completion. And I'm not saying that he's gonna step
- 38:59Speaker 1: onto the few in his first game ever and looked
- 39:01Speaker 1: like the rebirth of Troy Aikman or Peyton Manning and
- 39:06Speaker 1: year three their years three. But I mean, it's gonna
- 39:09Speaker 1: take some time, but man, it's a I told this
- 39:12Speaker 1: to a couple of people recently because a lot of
- 39:15Speaker 1: people are asking me questions over the last week or
- 39:17Speaker 1: so since the mini camp happened. They were like, did
- 39:20Speaker 1: you see it? Did you see it? I'm like, I
- 39:21Speaker 1: did see it. I went and saw it and saw
- 39:23Speaker 1: it on Saturday, and and they're just dying to know
- 39:25Speaker 1: how does he look. And I just said, you know,
- 39:28Speaker 1: I've never been one that that that gets into the hype,
- 39:33Speaker 1: but I will tell you be excited. And I told
- 39:36Speaker 1: this to the people that asked me the question. They're
- 39:38Speaker 1: fans of the Jaguars. I said, be excited, and I said,
- 39:41Speaker 1: because you know what, I'm excited. I mean, that's how
- 39:44Speaker 1: good My eyes are telling me that this guy is
- 39:47Speaker 1: good from film, from watching him in person. And I
- 39:50Speaker 1: didn't get the opportunity to stand by to hear the ball, right, Okay,
- 39:54Speaker 1: wasn't that close to him, But yeah, he's a he's
- 39:56Speaker 1: a special talent. The one of the most overblown stories
- 40:00Speaker 1: of the off season, which we've had a few around here,
- 40:03Speaker 1: it feels like Travis et N working out at wide
- 40:06Speaker 1: receiver during that mini camp, And that's basically what urban
- 40:11Speaker 1: Meyer said. He's working out in this three day mini
- 40:14Speaker 1: camp at wide receiver because of some of the things
- 40:16Speaker 1: we talked about earlier. Also, you haven't really run a
- 40:19Speaker 1: lot of routes in his college career to begin with.
- 40:23Speaker 1: On the outside. He did a lot of his work
- 40:25Speaker 1: out of the backfield in the passing game. But also
- 40:28Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence wasn't handing the ball off to anybody, so
- 40:32Speaker 1: that was not going to be allowed for him. If one,
- 40:34Speaker 1: I understand, he's back at running back now, and hey,
- 40:37Speaker 1: guess what it's like riding a bike. He took a
- 40:39Speaker 1: hand off and found open daylight and ran through it.
- 40:42Speaker 1: So he can do all of this. What is what
- 40:44Speaker 1: is e t N? Gonna gain from being in a
- 40:47Speaker 1: mini camp, being the only running back out there and
- 40:51Speaker 1: being out on the field with sixteen seventeen guys and
- 40:54Speaker 1: taking a handoff and there's you're you're basically running on air. Yeah,
- 40:58Speaker 1: there's really there's nothing to be gained for him. He's
- 41:02Speaker 1: played running back, and so why not expose him to
- 41:06Speaker 1: something different, which is plane receiver and learning maybe some
- 41:11Speaker 1: of the finer details and some of the teachings of
- 41:14Speaker 1: plane wide receiver because they want him to be a
- 41:16Speaker 1: dynamic back, which is somebody that's going to separate from
- 41:19Speaker 1: the formation and create some matchup problems. So I don't
- 41:24Speaker 1: want to say it was brilliant. I wouldn't go that far,
- 41:26Speaker 1: but I thought it was a great idea by Urban Meyer.
- 41:28Speaker 1: It's a perfect time to do it. Yeah, I mean,
- 41:31Speaker 1: and is it? Is it worthy of National News Travis
- 41:34Speaker 1: etms mood wide receiver for Jaguars recommend No, it's not
- 41:38Speaker 1: worthy of that. People were like crushing Urban about it,
- 41:40Speaker 1: like come on, people, Yeah, and I don't. I don't.
- 41:43Speaker 1: I didn't see that. I mean, I'm sure that it happened,
- 41:46Speaker 1: but it just look, there's nothing wrong with exposing of
- 41:49Speaker 1: player to some of the nuances of playing wide receiver
- 41:53Speaker 1: so that maybe he can learn something that he can
- 41:57Speaker 1: carry over to him being a receiver, were as a
- 42:00Speaker 1: running back, and uh so I thought I thought it
- 42:03Speaker 1: was a good idea. Let's hear from Urban Meyer about
- 42:07Speaker 1: an offensive lineman. The Jaguars selected Walker Little Urban shockingly
- 42:12Speaker 1: loves the guy. We just believe he was. He would
- 42:16Speaker 1: have been a first rounder had he been never had
- 42:18Speaker 1: that knee injury. At one point he was one of
- 42:19Speaker 1: the top tackles in the country, and and that was
- 42:22Speaker 1: really hard because you never saw him toil. They got here,
- 42:25Speaker 1: you know, you just don't know what their legs look like,
- 42:27Speaker 1: et cetera. And then when he got here, you like,
- 42:29Speaker 1: you know, body fat. It's pretty good for a three
- 42:32Speaker 1: and thirty pound man. Let's see how he fits in
- 42:36Speaker 1: the grand scheme of things once the veterans are here
- 42:38Speaker 1: and they're all on the field together, but the measurables
- 42:41Speaker 1: are certainly their lives. What do you think when you
- 42:43Speaker 1: saw him last weekend? Well, I'll tell you what I
- 42:47Speaker 1: thought when I saw him in person, and also what
- 42:49Speaker 1: I saw from watching him on film, because I watched
- 42:52Speaker 1: every snap that he played from the one game that
- 42:54Speaker 1: he played in nineteen, and I watched multiple games that
- 42:57Speaker 1: he played in eighteen when he was the same a
- 43:00Speaker 1: true freshman, and my my impressions at many can't. He
- 43:05Speaker 1: is a naturally big man. And when I say naturally big,
- 43:10Speaker 1: it's not like he's an inflated three pounds or three
- 43:13Speaker 1: five whatever he weighs. He he is a big man.
- 43:17Speaker 1: He has big frame, he has big bones. I mean,
- 43:21Speaker 1: he's got big legs. It's not like he's just you know,
- 43:25Speaker 1: he ate extra extra four sandwiches a day to get
- 43:28Speaker 1: to three thirty and he and he's looking like the
- 43:30Speaker 1: state puff marshmallow man. That's not it. And he the
- 43:34Speaker 1: one thing that impressed me about his the way he plays.
- 43:37Speaker 1: First of all, he's got excellent feet. Excellent feet, never
- 43:41Speaker 1: puts his head in their excellent hands. Is technique Basselly
- 43:45Speaker 1: is gonna love, and Basselli is a little bit of
- 43:50Speaker 1: hard butt when it comes to criticizing technique. But I
- 43:55Speaker 1: think what impresses me the most is that his ability
- 43:58Speaker 1: to bend. When he gets in a stance, he can
- 44:02Speaker 1: literally put his gluts down on his ankles and literally
- 44:07Speaker 1: turned side to side. The flexibility, the athleticism and I
- 44:12Speaker 1: said this, and I'm not going to back away from it.
- 44:14Speaker 1: I'll say I said it to some people, and I'll
- 44:16Speaker 1: say it right here. I think he will be the
- 44:18Speaker 1: second best draft pick in this draft class. Okay, write
- 44:22Speaker 1: it down. I believe that strongly and that that he
- 44:27Speaker 1: will be behind Trevor Lawrence. He will be long term
- 44:31Speaker 1: the best draft pick in this draft class. I think
- 44:35Speaker 1: he is going to be a franchise left tackle. He's
- 44:37Speaker 1: just gonna need a little bit of time to get
- 44:40Speaker 1: back into the swing of football. Correct he's been out
- 44:44Speaker 1: for two years? Why not twice? Two years? Okay, essentially
- 44:49Speaker 1: almost two years because he played one game in nineteen
- 44:52Speaker 1: and then Stanford didn't decide to start the season until
- 44:55Speaker 1: late and at that point he chose not to play,
- 44:58Speaker 1: which I don't blame him, but I mean, we're talking
- 45:01Speaker 1: about a young man who was if I remember correctly,
- 45:04Speaker 1: he was all packed at twelve yea and in a
- 45:07Speaker 1: sophomore season. Yes, I mean, that's that's tremendous. So um,
- 45:15Speaker 1: he's got it all now, I mean he he's got
- 45:17Speaker 1: it all because I always look at it. I look
- 45:20Speaker 1: at tackles from the standpoint of if you're facing them,
- 45:24Speaker 1: do you see the whole do you see any weaknesses
- 45:26Speaker 1: in their game? And uh and I don't see any
- 45:29Speaker 1: weaknesses in this game. Okay, let's get up this. In
- 45:34Speaker 1: my opinion, this is the best tackle selection the Jaguars
- 45:38Speaker 1: have had since Boselli in the draft saying a lot,
- 45:44Speaker 1: it's been a lot of tackles drafted. Well, I mean, look,
- 45:46Speaker 1: there hadn't been a lot of great ones. I mean,
- 45:49Speaker 1: Tony was obviously, I mean, he's Hall of Fame count
- 45:53Speaker 1: Uh should be in the Hall of Fame. But think
- 45:55Speaker 1: of some of the other tackles that the Jaguars have drafted.
- 45:58Speaker 1: I mean, Cam Robinson is obviously a higher pick that
- 46:02Speaker 1: they've been able to take. Jocol Um Williams, Moe Williams,
- 46:09Speaker 1: I mean mo is going back a little bit. Monroe,
- 46:12Speaker 1: e GM Monroe. This guy right here is that it
- 46:14Speaker 1: will be the boat the next best tackle to play
- 46:17Speaker 1: for this organization. You heard it here. First, let's come

- 50:17Speaker 1: So we didn't pick up the phone to call. You know,
- 50:19Speaker 1: we just sat there and he's sitting on his and
- 50:22Speaker 1: wondering why we haven't called him. We were past like
- 50:25Speaker 1: six minutes when you know, we're ready to turn it in.
- 50:28Speaker 1: And then there was the set up. You know, he
- 50:38Speaker 1: started calling and getting a recording, so so and there
- 50:42Speaker 1: you was seeing the clock take away and then let's
- 50:45Speaker 1: try it again. You know, got the same recording. And

- 51:35Speaker 1: the pick in. And they're coming down to it a
- 51:37Speaker 1: little bit. But there was just a one number off

- 53:05Speaker 1: system in Bradenton down here in Florida, and was up
- 53:09Speaker 1: in Altoona in Double A for a little bit as well.
- 53:11Speaker 1: He retired from baseball in February of twenty nineteen. He's
- 53:14Speaker 1: now back with the Patriots in the off season as
- 53:16Speaker 1: a running back. Well, look, more power to him. And
- 53:22Speaker 1: so here's here's the thing. Yes, do you hear an
- 53:24Speaker 1: uproar or or a lot of conversation about him signing
- 53:30Speaker 1: a contract with the New England Patriots. Part of that
- 53:34Speaker 1: is he was a running back before, so it's not
- 53:37Speaker 1: gonna be payed baseball comes back. You know, he hasn't
- 53:41Speaker 1: been doing anything for a couple of years. I mean,
- 53:44Speaker 1: you know, where's where's the where conversation about that sign?
- 53:50Speaker 1: You gonna have a long conversation about Tyler Gaffney on
- 53:53Speaker 1: Get Up Tomorrow on ESPN. I'm sure. Mark Brunell in
- 53:56Speaker 1: the news today, lot, Yeah, yeah, I heard he was
- 54:00Speaker 1: doking the fire a little bit, trying to get his
- 54:02Speaker 1: new Detroit Lions football team, where he is the quarterback coach,
- 54:06Speaker 1: trying to get the team a little fired up and
- 54:08Speaker 1: give it some hope, and saying that they have a
- 54:11Speaker 1: chance to do great things this year in Detroit, just
- 54:14Speaker 1: like the Jaguars did in Everybody was counting you guys
- 54:18Speaker 1: out in nine and probably rightly so you're four seven,
- 54:23Speaker 1: midway through a little more. We weren't. We weren't doing
- 54:25Speaker 1: very good at the time, but I mean we we
- 54:27Speaker 1: we had some pieces that we're starting to come together.
- 54:29Speaker 1: We just needed to kind of have it all work
- 54:32Speaker 1: at the same time instead of having, you know, one
- 54:34Speaker 1: area not working one week and then the next week
- 54:37Speaker 1: it changes. But good for Mark. First of all, I'm
- 54:40Speaker 1: excited for Mark because Mark. Mark comes from a family
- 54:46Speaker 1: of coaches. His dad was a coach. Mark has always
- 54:48Speaker 1: been a coach. He was the head coach obviously a
- 54:51Speaker 1: high school here in Jacksonville, and so he's getting to
- 54:54Speaker 1: do what he wants to do, which is coach ball,
- 54:57Speaker 1: and he gets to do it with with an organization
- 55:00Speaker 1: that is excited about their prospects. They have kind of
- 55:04Speaker 1: like the Jaguars. Obviously they didn't have the first overall
- 55:07Speaker 1: pick and don't have that kind of momentum, but they
- 55:09Speaker 1: have a new coach, a new general manager, and a
- 55:13Speaker 1: new excitement building in Detroit and UH and marks able
- 55:16Speaker 1: to be a part of that. And I'm happy for
- 55:18Speaker 1: the new quarterback, Jared Goff. The deal to UH to
- 55:21Speaker 1: move Stafford over to l A brought golf back to Detroit.
- 55:25Speaker 1: So yeah, and I think Detroit got UH got the
- 55:29Speaker 1: better end of that because you know, this past year,
- 55:31Speaker 1: we we were able to watch the lines because the
- 55:34Speaker 1: Jaguars played the lines and Stafford. When I watched the
- 55:38Speaker 1: film on Stafford wasn't very good the last time we
- 55:41Speaker 1: saw him, and UH it wasn't very good against the
- 55:45Speaker 1: Jaguars and they won, but it wasn't because of him.
- 55:50Speaker 1: I just think that the the Rams have gotten fleeced
- 55:54Speaker 1: in on on a couple occasions with trades and I
- 55:58Speaker 1: think the Rams did a poor job in this instance.
- 56:02Speaker 1: In my opinion, they're not a quarterback away from winning
- 56:06Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and Matt Stafford is not that quarterback that's
- 56:10Speaker 1: gonna take them to the super Bowl. They feel like
- 56:13Speaker 1: they are apparently over there. They could be wrong. The
- 56:16Speaker 1: Buccaneers apparently or a quarterback away from winning Super Bowl
- 56:19Speaker 1: because they did it last year, and because he's the goat.
- 56:21Speaker 1: He is the goat, and they did a few other things.
- 56:23Speaker 1: Of course, they brought everybody back in this off season,
- 56:26Speaker 1: but Bruce Arian says he plans on coaching for a while,
- 56:30Speaker 1: even after Tom Brady retires. Whenever that happens, that could
- 56:33Speaker 1: be ten years from now. He said, quote, I don't
- 56:36Speaker 1: have any plans and retiring. It's just when do I
- 56:38Speaker 1: not want to go back to work. When I'm not
- 56:40Speaker 1: excited about going back to work, then I'm cheating somebody
- 56:43Speaker 1: And quote, well, you could argue we were talking about
- 56:45Speaker 1: this earlier today, Logs you and I off the year.
- 56:47Speaker 1: Of course, you know the Jaguars are right there as
- 56:51Speaker 1: one of the top storylines of the off season, but
- 56:53Speaker 1: then you remember the Buccaneers are coming off a Super
- 56:56Speaker 1: Bowl with the goat on the team, and they resigned
- 56:58Speaker 1: every starter on both sides. Yeah, I look, first of all,
- 57:03Speaker 1: Bruce arians is one of my favorite coaches in the
- 57:06Speaker 1: National Football League. Um, mainly because he's he's entertaining, he's
- 57:12Speaker 1: when he when he talks, he gives you good information
- 57:16Speaker 1: and sometimes that uh it kind of makes you chuckle
- 57:19Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, he shoots straight, he totally does.
- 57:23Speaker 1: And uh and and he's not and I give him credit.
- 57:26Speaker 1: This past year he would was not even afraid to
- 57:28Speaker 1: shoot straight about the performance of Tom Brady at times
- 57:32Speaker 1: which a lot of people were like, oh my god,
- 57:33Speaker 1: I can't believe he said anything like that about Tom Brady.
- 57:35Speaker 1: How dare he? Well, I mean he's a coach, you know.
- 57:38Speaker 1: That's that's that's how he's wired. That's what he is.
- 57:40Speaker 1: I mean, And I'm glad that he didn't change who
- 57:42Speaker 1: he is just because he was coaching the Goat. I mean,
- 57:46Speaker 1: you gotta be who you are. And so good for him,
- 57:49Speaker 1: I mean good for him. He's he paid his dues
- 57:52Speaker 1: and and it took him a long time to get
- 57:54Speaker 1: the opportunity to be a head coach in the National
- 57:57Speaker 1: Football League, first and foremost, and when he only got it,
- 58:00Speaker 1: kind of unexpectedly. He did a great job and it's
- 58:03Speaker 1: good to see him back. He was an assistant coach
- 58:06Speaker 1: under Bear Bryant at Alabama. That's how long he's been
- 58:09Speaker 1: in the game, A long long time Eagles quarterback Jalen
- 58:13Speaker 1: Hurts says he's not above a quarterback competition in Philadelphia
- 58:17Speaker 1: Joe Flaccos with the Eagles. Of course, Hurts has some history,
- 58:22Speaker 1: at least in changes at the quarterback position with him.
- 58:26Speaker 1: In one of those changes at Alabama, he was mentioned
- 58:28Speaker 1: the National title game and it was a backup for
- 58:30Speaker 1: two A tong of Baloa his remaining time in Tuscaloosa
- 58:33Speaker 1: and then transferred to Oklahoma. So he's up for the battle.
- 58:36Speaker 1: I think he'll win the battle, though I would think,
- 58:39Speaker 1: who's he battling Flacco? J P. Where's the battle. I'm
- 58:46Speaker 1: just saying that he's open for it. If there's going
- 58:48Speaker 1: to be a competition. Joe Flacco has not has not
- 58:52Speaker 1: played well in quite some time, right, I mean really,
- 58:56Speaker 1: he has not played well. How old is he now?
- 58:58Speaker 1: He's not that old, I mean as far as quarterbacks go. Yeah,
- 59:03Speaker 1: I mean he's must he said he's six, Is he really? Yes?
- 59:06Speaker 1: About same age as Matt Ryan. Sixe thought he was
- 59:09Speaker 1: younger than Matt Ryan. So he's about same age as
- 59:11Speaker 1: Matt Ryan. Interesting, he was the two thousand and eight
- 59:15Speaker 1: draft pick. He has not played well though in a while.
- 59:17Speaker 1: I mean, and and that's I mean. So there's no
- 59:21Speaker 1: competition in Philly. If you're a coach, you're not even
- 59:24Speaker 1: thinking about playing Flacco. You're you're going with the youth. Absolutely,
- 59:29Speaker 1: logs well done. Check out the Official Jaguars Podcast Network
