  [SPEAKER_00]: Jacksonville Jaguar's fans, welcome into Duval.
• 0:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Daily, presented by jingyag.com.
• 0:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm Jordan Aluga.
• 0:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Thanks for bringing here Friday, April 10th, right now.
• 0:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: We are talking about Ed Rusher's James Gladstone.
• 0:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jaguar's GM yesterday was asked by Hyrano Haller and like what's the deepest position in the draft.
• 0:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: He didn't give like a direct answer, but the final thing he said was Ed Rusher is deep compared to a lot of positions and he's excited to see how it plays out.
• 0:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: and earlier in the press conference he said, we think that the skill in this draft, the depth in this draft kind of aligns with what we're looking for.
• 0:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: one could infer the Jaguars are looking to upgrade their edd rush and I think they should be.
• 0:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they've got their starters obviously, Josh Hinds Allen, Trevor and Walker.
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: They did develop two young guys on draft of free agents last year, Danny Sturgo and BJ Green, but they should be looking for more.
• 1:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: They absolutely should be and I think the draft does align with that and so I'm excited to talk about kind of my wish list and some guys that
• 1:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: might make sense for the Jaguars.
• 1:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Really appreciate y'all being here.
• 1:11

• 1:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'll just check out GenJag.com pick up some new dov all gear, help support the channel look good while doing it.
• 1:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'll just hit that high button.
• 1:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, uh, gonna get out of the way the players that I think the Jaguars have absolutely zero chance.
• 1:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: of potentially landing.
• 1:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's Arville Reese, who's a hybrid linebacker edge out of Ohio State.
• 1:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: David Bailey, the speedy edgerusher out of Texas Tech, Rubin Bane.
• 1:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Everybody knows about Rubin Bane.
• 1:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's got the shortest arms ever for a defensive end.
• 1:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: Going to be drafted in the first round.
• 1:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he is a bully and he is highly technically sound strong.
• 1:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm a fan of Rubin Bane.
• 1:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: starting to get into the territory where it's like maybe he could be available for a trade-up scenario, but I don't think he will be.
• 2:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that he's going to go early, top 20, something like that.
• 2:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: But everybody else, there's like a glimmer of hope, a small chance that, yeah, I mean, a key measure or love the guy's game,
• 2:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: unbelievable athlete at edge in my opinion, just like his combination of size, fluidity, bend, explosiveness, really good, really technically sound.
• 2:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's 25 years old and he has a lot of injury history.
• 2:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's the reason he could be potentially become available.
• 2:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: and arrange the Jaguars could feel comfortable trading up for.
• 2:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Who knows, right?
• 2:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Those are, I don't care about the age as much because he's been playing good football for a long time.
• 2:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: I care more about.
• 2:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: the injury concerns.
• 2:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that that's fair.
• 2:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: TJ Parker coming off a little bit of a down year at a Clemson.
• 3:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's big.
• 3:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's over 260 pounds like 263 something like that.
• 3:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kind of would fit right in with a Josh Hines Allen and a Travelle Walker size wise.
• 3:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: He hasn't become super technically refined.
• 3:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he's like super bindi, but he is explosive.
• 3:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: He is a very good athlete.
• 3:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's gonna be good against the run.
• 3:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I think getting in with this group would be a good landing spot for him.
• 3:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: And right now we're rolling through
• 3:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Dane Brugler's beast, the beast, his draft rankings, just wanted to shout him out, obviously doesn't incredible job covering the draft.
• 3:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: So we're just rolling through those, the list of names there, and I'm just kind of given my opinion.
• 3:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: So TJ Parker, I would be relatively excited about.
• 3:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that there's more upside there, there's a floor that you can be happy with,
• 4:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: huge impact pass rusher.
• 4:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he can be a good pass rusher.
• 4:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think measured or is going to be a better pass rusher.
• 4:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think the next guy on Brugler's list, Malachi Lawrence, is going to be a better pass rusher.
• 4:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Lawrence is um and insane athlete out of UCF.
• 4:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's just and insane athlete.
• 4:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like he's somebody we actually got to pull up the numbers here for him because
• 4:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: What he did at the combine was nothing short of incredible.
• 4:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: And he's got the tape to back it up, the production to back it up.
• 4:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: But 95th percentile 40R-452 for an edge player, 452 at 64253, with 33 and 5A's arms.
• 4:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like he's got the length.
• 4:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's got the explosiveness at the 40R-dash, the vertical jump, 96th percentile.
• 4:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: 40-inch vert at 253 pounds.
• 5:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Broad jump 97%ile, 130 inches.
• 5:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's all there, man.
• 5:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's all there for him.
• 5:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he has the chance.
• 5:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I think John led you to who I really respect when it comes to specifically kind of defensive line evaluations.
• 5:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Not always right.
• 5:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Nobody is always right.
• 5:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he said that, he's the adressor that he would like to bet on in this draft.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I get that.
• 5:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Malachi Lawrence.
• 5:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: Now, the Jaguar's have a legit chance to land him.
• 5:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Probably in the top 25.
• 5:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: If not, then maybe they do have a chance to trade up for him if they want to.
• 5:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: Again, I wouldn't put it past James Lads so I'm getting back into that first round.
• 5:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would not.
• 5:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: Zion Young, not somebody who I'd be super excited about.
• 5:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: I just don't think he's super athletic.
• 6:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he'd be like a lesser version of a TJ Parker.
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's probably not even fair to really put them in the same bucket, but he has a good run defender, good size, strong player.
• 6:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's a little overrated, but.
• 6:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: we'll see.
• 6:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Cash is how well in our Mason Thomas are next up on the list for Dane Brugler.
• 6:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kind of both projected as like undersized speed rusher's, I prefer our Mason Thomas.
• 6:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he is
• 6:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: just so and cash is how it is, too.
• 6:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're both really explosive off the line.
• 6:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: I like our Mason Thomas overall bag of tricks, better.
• 6:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he is really good at bending the edge.
• 6:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's really good at crossing your face.
• 6:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: He threatens you with speed to the outside arc and then crosses your face, you overset.
• 6:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's over.
• 6:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he wins with a little bit more power, a little bit more refinement as well than cash is howl.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I'd be really fired up about our Mason Thomas.
• 7:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: But either one of those guys you could get excited about as Ed Rusher's kind of more DPR types.
• 7:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Gave back inside of Illinois, souped up power rusher, good length, good size, good athleticism.
• 7:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: It could be fun.
• 7:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: You just want somebody pushing the pocket.
• 7:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: It could be fun.
• 7:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: Good to run defender as well.
• 7:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: Cure on Crawford out of Auburn is somebody who plays with his hair on fire, very, very good athlete.
• 7:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he's like the most refined edged rusher yet, but somebody who I could see fitting into this room really well.
• 7:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: They need to in a certain more of that like
• 8:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: not ever going to probably be in a lead past Russia, but can push the pocket, can defend the run.
• 8:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: Derek Moore, to me, is low on this list.
• 8:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I really like Derek Moore.
• 8:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'd be fine with him at 56, 81, 88.
• 8:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's a refined Russia who can win with speed to power, who can rush through you, who can bend the edge, and crush your face a little bit, can move around.
• 8:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: I like Derek Moore's game a lot.
• 8:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Ramello, height is, I mean, he plays under 240 pounds.
• 8:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's small, but,
• 8:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think there's many guys that are more explosive off the line, and he was super productive at Texas Tech, has played out like four or five different programs.
• 8:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Was really productive at Texas Tech, and can't remember where he was in 2024, but he was productive there too.
• 9:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jason Barham, out of Michigan, Derek Moore's teammate, he hadn't been playing edge very long.
• 9:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: He could be a fun guy to add for sure.
• 9:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then, LTO over 10, he's really not like a true edge projection in my opinion.
• 9:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: I've always liked his game.
• 9:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's a bit underrated, but I don't think you've, like I view him as more of an interior past Russia.
• 9:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kaden Curry out of Ohio State super productive.
• 9:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's going to be a good role player in the NFL.
• 9:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Joshua Joseph's very kind of linear and upright out of Tennessee, but he has some length and explosiveness and production.
• 9:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe somebody that could be interested in.
• 9:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: And now we're kind of just moving around the board.
• 9:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: Logan Faunau, somebody who I've been a fan of his effort, his game.
• 10:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Mason Rieger, I think it's somebody that the Jaguars have shown interest in out of Wisconsin.
• 10:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: I really like him.
• 10:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: He could be, I think, early day, day three, early to mid day three for them.
• 10:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: SOOPED UP version of Danny Striggow in a way.
• 10:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Tyre Xapp, somebody out of Florida who they thought could be a potential first round second round pick.
• 10:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Now, probably going to be mid-delayed day three.
• 10:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he could definitely help them out.
• 10:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Now, Domay Tucker is an interesting one.
• 10:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: I really like his game on tape as a DPR type, but he's up there in age.
• 10:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: Mikhail Kamara out of Indiana and Stanley Productive,
• 10:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: just doesn't have a lot of the physical traits, I think a lot of teams are getting excited about.
• 10:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, that's kind of my wishlist, some of the guys that I think could make a lot of sense for the jag wars at edge.
• 10:55
