- 0:02Speaker 1: Welcome into the Jaguars Reporters podcast.
- 0:04Speaker 2: JB.
- 0:05Speaker 1: Shadwick, Bryan Sexson, John Ozier, Kai Stevens in the aftermath
- 0:09Speaker 1: of the end of the regular season, still winding it down,
- 0:13Speaker 1: and yeah, it's been a busy week, obviously, the Jaguars
- 0:16Speaker 1: falling on Sunday and then making changes to the staff
- 0:20Speaker 1: starting late Monday night with defensive coaches a lot of
- 0:25Speaker 1: them gone, and then adding to it the next day
- 0:27Speaker 1: Kai with a couple of offensive coaches not returning. And
- 0:31Speaker 1: that's what happens when you lose five of six down
- 0:33Speaker 1: the stretch and play the way they did.
- 0:36Speaker 3: We knew changes were coming because when you collapse like that,
- 0:38Speaker 3: something has to change, right. You can't just expect things
- 0:41Speaker 3: are going to stay the same. It's so funny. I
- 0:43Speaker 3: think we talked the fine line of it, and John
- 0:46Speaker 3: was saying, if you win that game, then totally different.
- 0:48Speaker 3: You're in the playoffs and then probably nobody loses their job,
- 0:51Speaker 3: right so, and it's probably not that much different, which
- 0:55Speaker 3: so you can kind of look at it as a
- 0:56Speaker 3: positive in the sense of they ran everything back the
- 0:59Speaker 3: exact same way they had it in twenty twenty two
- 1:01Speaker 3: and they got the exact same result, which is a
- 1:03Speaker 3: nine to eight team, and it wasn't good enough this
- 1:05Speaker 3: year to make the playoffs because the division's gotten better.
- 1:07Speaker 3: So I'm a big philosopher of you should change between
- 1:11Speaker 3: every year, even if you win the Super Bowl, because
- 1:13Speaker 3: you're unless you win the Super Bowl, you were not successful,
- 1:16Speaker 3: and they certainly did not do that. So well, we'll
- 1:19Speaker 3: end up seeing exactly what all the changes are going
- 1:21Speaker 3: to be. But big ones already right out of the gate.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Yeah, right, I mean these are pretty pretty big ones
- 1:27Speaker 1: right out of the gate.
- 1:28Speaker 4: Well, I was telling someone this morning, I've seen a
- 1:31Speaker 4: defensive coordinator go and then the staff kind of hangs
- 1:34Speaker 4: out until the new coordinator comes in and dismisses them.
- 1:38Speaker 4: I've never seen them swept out like everybody on that
- 1:42Speaker 4: side of the ball, with the exception of Bill Shoey
- 1:44Speaker 4: and Schwey has a resume. Obviously, what he has done
- 1:46Speaker 4: with Trayvon Walker and Josh Allen, you weren't going to
- 1:49Speaker 4: necessarily ask him to go, But they swept everybody out
- 1:53Speaker 4: at the same time. It just seemed to me a
- 1:55Speaker 4: very dramatic way of doing things, And maybe that's a
- 1:58Speaker 4: message that Doug is trying to send that you know
- 2:02Speaker 4: hard and fast, understand everything is different now.
- 2:05Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 2:06Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit, a little bit semantics
- 2:09Speaker 2: in the sense that usually when you fire the corner,
- 2:12Speaker 2: everybody goes like you said, so it's sort of a
- 2:16Speaker 2: probably symbolic gesture more than anything of look, we're not
- 2:19Speaker 2: good enough. We need to make a statement. We need
- 2:22Speaker 2: to make sure people realize we're not doing maybe send
- 2:24Speaker 2: a message to players, you know, of hey, if this happens,
- 2:29Speaker 2: it's unacceptable. I'm not necessarily on board with guy that
- 2:34Speaker 2: you have to change every off season.
- 2:37Speaker 5: I think there is.
- 2:40Speaker 2: An advantage to continuity, and I usually believe in that
- 2:43Speaker 2: maybe this works, you know, I don't necessarily think that
- 2:49Speaker 2: the woes on defense when guys don't get in their
- 2:54Speaker 2: gaps and don't tackle.
- 2:56Speaker 5: Maybe that's coaching.
- 2:58Speaker 1: But as you always say in the os on the
- 3:00Speaker 1: it's always coaching in the well.
- 3:03Speaker 2: And I mainly say that for many reasons because I
- 3:07Speaker 2: like that sort of thing that I may say, because
- 3:09Speaker 2: I think I think it's very overrated in a lot
- 3:12Speaker 2: of cases, and I think players have to make plays.
- 3:16Speaker 2: But in this league, you can't fire all your players.
- 3:20Speaker 2: So when you need to make a change, you fire
- 3:23Speaker 2: all your coaches and that's what they did.
- 3:25Speaker 4: Well, you're gonna have to have some change on that
- 3:27Speaker 4: defensive side of the ball. You're gonna have to have
- 3:29Speaker 4: better players. They've invested money in fully Fonticassi and Devon Hamilton,
- 3:36Speaker 4: and I think both are good players, but both got
- 3:38Speaker 4: pushed around on Sunday. That's a problem. You know, Roy
- 3:42Speaker 4: Robertson Harris, same thing. Roy has had some really big
- 3:44Speaker 4: moments for this team in the last two years, and
- 3:46Speaker 4: yet on Sunday not so much. Clearly, Devin Lloyd is
- 3:51Speaker 4: a guy that they have high expectations for first round pick,
- 3:55Speaker 4: a guy who could sack the quarterback, intercept the ball,
- 3:57Speaker 4: you know, has a nose for the football, not for
- 4:00Speaker 4: the gap he's supposed to be in, because he certainly
- 4:01Speaker 4: wasn't the other day. They've they got. If there's gonna
- 4:06Speaker 4: be change, it can't just be the coaches. There's got
- 4:10Speaker 4: to be some players that come and go from this thing,
- 4:12Speaker 4: and on defense man right in the middle of it all,
- 4:15Speaker 4: they got to get better.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Well, I mean this is this seems like something they
- 4:19Speaker 1: can work on, you know, trim some things off the
- 4:22Speaker 1: salary cap and make room to be able to go
- 4:25Speaker 1: out and get some players.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Yeah, because I mean, you can make as many coaching
- 4:28Speaker 3: changes as you want, but it's the players on the field, right,
- 4:30Speaker 3: so you can motivate them.
- 4:32Speaker 4: Right.
- 4:32Speaker 3: But if they're saying a lot of the issues, according
- 4:35Speaker 3: to Doug and coaching staff was execution, I watched an
- 4:39Speaker 3: entire season where they didn't execute those things. So maybe
- 4:42Speaker 3: it's the they can't execute those things. Maybe they're doing
- 4:45Speaker 3: it in practice and then choosing not to do it
- 4:46Speaker 3: in a game. I find that very odd. I would
- 4:48Speaker 3: imagine that there's physical limitations for certain positions or whatever
- 4:52Speaker 3: it may be, but that those need to be addressed too.
- 4:55Speaker 3: And for me, it's more I don't always believe that.
- 4:58Speaker 3: I don't think coaching firing coaches necessarily fixes everything. A
- 5:02Speaker 3: lot of the changes is more like you can always
- 5:04Speaker 3: be better at certain positions, and then right now, there's
- 5:06Speaker 3: many positions that that applies to.
- 5:08Speaker 4: You know, if I can turn this just slightly to
- 5:11Speaker 4: the big picture, I get aggravated when mostly younger reporters say,
- 5:16Speaker 4: coach talk about leadership, right, they always want to talk
- 5:19Speaker 4: about leadership. Way is he can learn about leadership, but
- 5:22Speaker 4: there's got to be some of that. Right, you went
- 5:25Speaker 4: one in four in the big games on your schedule,
- 5:27Speaker 4: and the biggest game you didn't even show up yet. Right,
- 5:31Speaker 4: So I have to know why why didn't this team
- 5:35Speaker 4: perform in the big games? And I'm aggravated by the
- 5:38Speaker 4: fact that you know that you have the World champions
- 5:40Speaker 4: in week two your home opener, and what did we
- 5:43Speaker 4: learn after that game? Well that they had a bad
- 5:45Speaker 4: week of practice. How is that possible? Well then the
- 5:48Speaker 4: next week you get a Houston team coming in and
- 5:51Speaker 4: they just how to explain that game? Well, then you
- 5:54Speaker 4: go and you beat Atlanta in Buffalo. Okay, you write
- 5:56Speaker 4: the ship, you run out to eight and three. But
- 5:59Speaker 4: then when got big, this team got small. And I
- 6:03Speaker 4: asked Ug about it, and he goes, I know what
- 6:05Speaker 4: the wise are. They're not gonna be your wise. He
- 6:08Speaker 4: wasn't gonna share him with us. But that's the big
- 6:11Speaker 4: question for me, because you've got some good players, and
- 6:13Speaker 4: we all know where they need to add good players.
- 6:15Speaker 4: But are you gonna change the reason why this team
- 6:19Speaker 4: couldn't win or didn't play its best when it needed to.
- 6:24Speaker 5: I think this ties into the same thing.
- 6:26Speaker 2: It's the stat I've been banging on for the last
- 6:28Speaker 2: two weeks they went nine and eight. I think this
- 6:31Speaker 2: stat's right, nine and oh when they led at halftime,
- 6:36Speaker 2: and oh and seven when they did that. I mean,
- 6:40Speaker 2: it's a great number. I messed that up because there
- 6:42Speaker 2: was one game where they were tied. But for the
- 6:44Speaker 2: most part. The point is they never came back this year.
- 6:48Speaker 2: And I thought Tennessee in that sense, I said it
- 6:53Speaker 2: on not Jaguars am this week was a microcosmic that
- 6:56Speaker 2: because they almost did, they showed that thing that we
- 6:59Speaker 2: all saw last year and you thought, Okay, this is it.
- 7:03Speaker 2: This is the game where they come back. They show it,
- 7:06Speaker 2: and they did. They got the play they needed with Cisco,
- 7:09Speaker 2: they got the Evan Ingram touchdown, and then they went
- 7:12Speaker 2: right down and got to the one and you thought, okay,
- 7:13Speaker 2: here they are, and there they went. And every game
- 7:19Speaker 2: last year that was big. They came back from double
- 7:21Speaker 2: digits down. This year, they never did it. I think
- 7:24Speaker 2: that probably ties in with what Doug's talking about, that urgency,
- 7:28Speaker 2: that spark that they all looked for. Someone's missing, and
- 7:31Speaker 2: maybe it was the defensive staff maybe.
- 7:34Speaker 1: So Yeah. Apparently Christian Kirk said something similar to that
- 7:38Speaker 1: in the locker room. Actually, he's like, you know, nobody
- 7:40Speaker 1: really knows why we want all.
- 7:41Speaker 5: Those games out. I laughed when he said that, nobody
- 7:45Speaker 5: knows what.
- 7:45Speaker 1: We lost all these games to there. That's just kind
- 7:47Speaker 1: of how it goes. Let's come back in a moment.
- 7:49Speaker 1: We'll get into some of the off season business to
- 7:52Speaker 1: attend to for the Jaguars after this on Jaguars Reporters.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Jaguars Reporters podcast. Japhty, Chadwick, Guy, Stephen,
- 8:04Speaker 1: Ryan Zaxstein, John Oser, And it's the off season. Unfortunately,
- 8:10Speaker 1: playoff games will be on television. The Jaguars will not
- 8:13Speaker 1: be there. We'll be watching some of that. I guess
- 8:15Speaker 1: I'll watch them, John, go watch them.
- 8:17Speaker 4: Yeah, if you have peacock, Yeah, we'll be watching that.
- 8:19Speaker 4: Way the way, have you seen the temperature in Kansas
- 8:21Speaker 4: City on Saturday night? Jokoff?
- 8:23Speaker 5: I haven't because I don't care.
- 8:24Speaker 4: It'll be minus one at kickoff, which you'll put it
- 8:27Speaker 4: in the top ten of all time coldest games. That's
- 8:30Speaker 4: a game you don't necessarily want to be on, but
- 8:33Speaker 4: watching it sounds fantastic. Yes, and Miami it'll be sixty
- 8:37Speaker 4: three at kickoff. Think about that big difference you're watching.
- 8:40Speaker 3: Okay, No, I'm trying to catch up on shows.
- 8:42Speaker 4: I'm on season two of The Bear right now.
- 8:44Speaker 2: It's fantastic. It's much better than won a great playoff
- 8:48Speaker 2: game at the Bear.
- 8:50Speaker 1: So the business ahead for the Jaguars. Okay, they've got
- 8:55Speaker 1: to figure out Josh Allen. They've got to figure out
- 8:58Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley. Those are one of the two big things.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Then you know they can make room and slice and
- 9:03Speaker 1: dice the salary cap down and make space.
- 9:06Speaker 4: And I can get you to sixty million to do
- 9:08Speaker 4: all that. They can get to a significant amount of Yeah.
- 9:11Speaker 1: So, but I mean, I mean, Kai, it's Josh Allen.
- 9:14Speaker 1: He's he's you got to get that done.
- 9:17Speaker 3: If you think people are mad right now, if you
- 9:19Speaker 3: don't resent Josh Allen, there will be no one in
- 9:22Speaker 3: that stadium next season.
- 9:24Speaker 1: There's no way to tag him.
- 9:25Speaker 3: There's just no physical way. He did everything he needed
- 9:28Speaker 3: to do.
- 9:29Speaker 5: I mean, I just don't.
- 9:30Speaker 4: The rest of the league would laugh at you. It
- 9:31Speaker 4: would be laugh out loud.
- 9:32Speaker 1: Yes.
- 9:33Speaker 5: Well, I've also got to think.
- 9:36Speaker 2: If you're right now, Doug's having conversations I assume with
- 9:40Speaker 2: defensive coordinator candidates.
- 9:43Speaker 5: A trave on and Josh your core. Yeah right, I
- 9:46Speaker 5: mean not coming here there. That's what you builder.
- 9:48Speaker 4: One sack duo with the NFL twenty seven and a
- 9:50Speaker 4: half sacks.
- 9:51Speaker 2: If I'm a defensive coordinator, the first thing that I
- 9:53Speaker 2: ask is, okay, wet Josh taking care of right? I
- 9:55Speaker 2: mean that's gonna happen? Y, yes, Okay, Well let's move on,
- 9:58Speaker 2: because you you can build around those guys. And I
- 10:03Speaker 2: know we're off on a tangent, but they're unusual in
- 10:06Speaker 2: this sense, the twenty seven sacks. And do you think
- 10:10Speaker 2: either of them are bad against the run?
- 10:12Speaker 5: No?
- 10:12Speaker 2: No, I mean they're complete players with the twenty seven sacks,
- 10:17Speaker 2: so you can build around that. But you got to
- 10:18Speaker 2: get them back to build around it. And uh, to me,
- 10:22Speaker 2: I think it's a no brain that you sign him
- 10:24Speaker 2: long term. You get that taken care of so that
- 10:26Speaker 2: you when you're building a cap, you've got to know
- 10:29Speaker 2: certain things you're going to build around for the foreseeable future.
- 10:33Speaker 2: You'd like that to be quarterback because then you can
- 10:35Speaker 2: build the whole thing for years. But it's okay to
- 10:38Speaker 2: have Josh as the thing that you're gonna build it.
- 10:40Speaker 1: Yeah, And too many times ran. It's it's been first
- 10:43Speaker 1: round picks not making it to the second contract, and
- 10:46Speaker 1: no cornerstone players for this franchise. And in year seven, year, eight,
- 10:51Speaker 1: year ten of their career. That's got to stop. And
- 10:55Speaker 1: this would this.
- 10:55Speaker 4: Was this is the flag. Yeah, this is your guy.
- 10:57Speaker 4: I remember I dropt night in twenty nineteen. I was
- 11:00Speaker 4: standing waiting to go down to the green room and
- 11:02Speaker 4: I had been told right, look for TJ. Hockinson, tight
- 11:06Speaker 4: end Iowa. They didn't think Josh Allen was going to
- 11:09Speaker 4: be there. They thought the Giants were going to swoop in.
- 11:11Speaker 4: I'm literally walking down the hallway and I hear stop, stop, stop,
- 11:14Speaker 4: it's Josh Allen defensive in Kentucky, and I hear the
- 11:17Speaker 4: whooping and hollering in the background. Everyone's all excited about
- 11:19Speaker 4: getting him. He's a tremendous player. You've got to keep him.
- 11:23Speaker 4: There were only four teams this year in the NFL
- 11:25Speaker 4: that had at least two players with ten sacks, and you're.
- 11:28Speaker 1: One of them.
- 11:29Speaker 4: He is absolutely the cornerstone, the guy that you build on.
- 11:33Speaker 4: I said this on Jags Am, I you're I mean,
- 11:35Speaker 4: if you're searching for a silver lining to this offseason,
- 11:38Speaker 4: you don't have to pay a lot of the guys
- 11:39Speaker 4: that you thought you may have to pay. People said,
- 11:42Speaker 4: are you worried about the quarterback? Well, no, because I
- 11:44Speaker 4: don't have to pay him. I've got his fourth year
- 11:46Speaker 4: and his fifth year option. I want to pay him,
- 11:48Speaker 4: don't get me wrong, but I don't have to right away.
- 11:51Speaker 4: And because if you're paying him based on this last season,
- 11:54Speaker 4: you're going which guy do I get? Right? So you
- 11:57Speaker 4: now have time to correct some mistakes and get him
- 11:59Speaker 4: on the right track. And you don't have to pay
- 12:02Speaker 4: Tyson Campbell like you thought you were going to do,
- 12:03Speaker 4: because he didn't play much this year, and he didn't
- 12:05Speaker 4: play that well when he came back from the hamstring injury.
- 12:07Speaker 4: Andre Cisco same thing, didn't play that much. There are
- 12:10Speaker 4: a couple of guys that you thought I may have
- 12:12Speaker 4: to pay these guys Walker Little you thought you may
- 12:14Speaker 4: have to pay him. You don't have to. Now you
- 12:17Speaker 4: have the ability to pay Josh, to keep Calvin, to
- 12:20Speaker 4: go sign a couple guys in free agency and let
- 12:22Speaker 4: those percolate. And by the way, in twenty twenty five,
- 12:25Speaker 4: the cap takes a major jump up. It's the first
- 12:28Speaker 4: year of revenue from the new television deal. So it
- 12:31Speaker 4: pushes it back a little bit. It gives you some
- 12:33Speaker 4: breathing room.
- 12:33Speaker 2: And I know Trent doesn't like to do this, he said,
- 12:36Speaker 2: he really doesn't do this. But with Walker, Little Cisco
- 12:43Speaker 2: and Campbell you can, and even Trevor, you can go
- 12:47Speaker 2: to the representation and say, look, this was a weird year,
- 12:51Speaker 2: didn't play injuries with Trevor, etc. Let's figure out after
- 12:56Speaker 2: eight weeks. Yeah, we really like these guys, really want
- 13:00Speaker 2: them to be this right now. We don't know the
- 13:02Speaker 2: market and neither do you. Frankly, if you look at
- 13:05Speaker 2: Trevor's people, do you want to sign right now after
- 13:07Speaker 2: this scene? You know not that he's not all the things,
- 13:11Speaker 2: but he wasn't this year. There's unknowns, so it would
- 13:15Speaker 2: be who.
- 13:15Speaker 4: The players to wait too? Well, you're he's wanting that
- 13:18Speaker 4: next step up from Joe Burrow, right. He didn't earn
- 13:22Speaker 4: that this year like Joe Burrow.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Right.
- 13:24Speaker 4: So if I'm him to your point, John, if i'm
- 13:27Speaker 4: him and his people, I'm like, you know what, We're fine.
- 13:29Speaker 5: I can do this, man.
- 13:30Speaker 4: We know Josh right, we've got the time. I'll bet
- 13:32Speaker 4: on myself. And if I'm Trevor Lawrence. I'm happy to
- 13:35Speaker 4: bet on myself. Would I rather have the big money?
- 13:37Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but I'm happy to bet on myself.
- 13:40Speaker 1: Kay, where are you on Calvin Ridley?
- 13:44Speaker 3: I'm torn. I'm curious what Calvin will want to do too,
- 13:47Speaker 3: because he comes out of suspension, hasn't played in a
- 13:52Speaker 3: couple of years, right, and he's talking you know now
- 13:56Speaker 3: that the season is over about Yeah, all of a
- 13:58Speaker 3: sudden they called me and then I was just out
- 14:00Speaker 3: practicing again trying to figure everything out. And it can't
- 14:02Speaker 3: be you know, that's a long time to not play football, right,
- 14:05Speaker 3: and then to come back. He doesn't have that connection
- 14:07Speaker 3: with Trevor because he hasn't played practice, done that with him.
- 14:11Speaker 3: Not to mention, we have to mention, there's at least
- 14:14Speaker 3: a month of this season that Trevor didn't practice, so
- 14:18Speaker 3: that's a lot of time to miss too. And we
- 14:19Speaker 3: saw what he looked like when he doesn't practice, so
- 14:21Speaker 3: you're missing out on that time. And I'm curious what
- 14:24Speaker 3: he would look like next season in his second season back.
- 14:29Speaker 3: I don't know if that'll be here or not. I'd
- 14:30Speaker 3: like to see one more. I don't know if you
- 14:32Speaker 3: can franchise segment I don't know what the exact particulars
- 14:34Speaker 3: of that would be.
- 14:35Speaker 2: You have to sign you have to sign Josh because
- 14:38Speaker 2: you only use one.
- 14:39Speaker 3: I think I would sign Josh either way.
- 14:40Speaker 5: I think it's.
- 14:44Speaker 2: I get there were things that Calvin wasn't, but he
- 14:47Speaker 2: was a thousand yard receiver, and I can point to
- 14:50Speaker 2: multiple games that I'm not sure they win if he's
- 14:52Speaker 2: not on the field right he's hard to cover. You
- 14:55Speaker 2: would think that the chemistry would be better in year two.
- 14:58Speaker 2: I think it would behoove him on the field to
- 15:01Speaker 2: be here.
- 15:03Speaker 5: Now.
- 15:04Speaker 2: He's also a special talent. Whatever he wasn't in some ways,
- 15:09Speaker 2: he's a special talent, and he's a thousand yard receiver
- 15:11Speaker 2: and he caught what seven touchdowns?
- 15:13Speaker 5: Eight?
- 15:14Speaker 2: Look, I know there are more expectations for that, but
- 15:17Speaker 2: that's not nothing. So I you know, if he wants
- 15:21Speaker 2: to go somewhere, he'll make money going somewhere.
- 15:24Speaker 5: So I don't really know how to predict it.
- 15:27Speaker 4: It's a great draft for wide receivers, but are you
- 15:29Speaker 4: guaranteed of fighting a guy who can give you that
- 15:32Speaker 4: next year?
- 15:32Speaker 3: Now?
- 15:32Speaker 5: Also, I have a lot of other stuff. You get
- 15:33Speaker 5: a draft for too one percent.
- 15:35Speaker 4: It's a great draft, for wide receivers and for offensive tackles,
- 15:38Speaker 4: and you'd rather not have to draft a wide receiver
- 15:41Speaker 4: when you need.
- 15:41Speaker 2: But considering wide receivers often have a tough time coming
- 15:44Speaker 2: and make an impact right away. And would you complain
- 15:48Speaker 2: if it was three offensive linemen on the first two days.
- 15:50Speaker 5: Oh no, I'm not saying it's going to be.
- 15:51Speaker 4: If it isn't, I'll beat my hand and say, what
- 15:53Speaker 4: are you thinking?
- 15:55Speaker 5: Well, you know about three. But they need to address it.
- 15:57Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. Yeah, I mean it's they
- 16:00Speaker 4: need it.
- 16:00Speaker 5: That's their dilemma.
- 16:02Speaker 2: If all you needed was a receiver, you're picking seventeenth.
- 16:06Speaker 2: You can maneuve room, go get one, just to But
- 16:09Speaker 2: I don't know if that's as important with this offense
- 16:12Speaker 2: as offensive line is.
- 16:13Speaker 4: I know you all guys. You guys all spent time
- 16:15Speaker 4: with Calvin in the summer too, But I spent time
- 16:18Speaker 4: with him in Dallas before the first preseason game, and
- 16:20Speaker 4: the conversation was about how happy he was to be
- 16:23Speaker 4: back in Florida and how happy he was to find
- 16:26Speaker 4: a spot where his family felt comfortable. And I think
- 16:29Speaker 4: stability matters to him. So I think you're going to
- 16:32Speaker 4: be I don't know, and it could be totally wrong.
- 16:33Speaker 4: I don't know his representation. I think you can find
- 16:36Speaker 4: a number that he'll be happy with and you'll be
- 16:38Speaker 4: happy with without breaking the bag. If he goes for
- 16:40Speaker 4: fourteen hundred yards and twenty touchdowns, twenty ten touchdowns, right,
- 16:45Speaker 4: you're gonna have to pay him twenty million. Well, you
- 16:47Speaker 4: don't have to pay him that now. I don't think
- 16:50Speaker 4: maybe some other team's going to come and offer something crazy.
- 16:52Speaker 4: But I think you could get him at a good
- 16:53Speaker 4: number for him and a number that fits for you.
- 16:56Speaker 4: And I think that would be appealing to him because
- 16:58Speaker 4: it sounded like he was really grateful to be in
- 17:02Speaker 4: Florida near his family.
- 17:05Speaker 1: Do you need the second round pick more than you
- 17:06Speaker 1: need that if that comes down to the long term deal.
- 17:11Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a fair point.
- 17:14Speaker 1: It's a great question.
- 17:15Speaker 5: It's a great question.
- 17:16Speaker 3: We've got a lot of we've got a lot of
- 17:17Speaker 3: we have many months to discuss.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Absolutely, you know. I mean, because there's a lot.
- 17:22Speaker 5: Of needs, a lot of needs.
- 17:23Speaker 1: But he's a good receiver.
- 17:25Speaker 4: Let me just say this. There are eight or nine
- 17:29Speaker 4: offensive tackles who will go in the top forty picks.
- 17:32Speaker 4: There is a center at Duke Graham Barton is his name.
- 17:37Speaker 4: Who is a stud who will go somewhere in the
- 17:40Speaker 4: upper reaches of the second round. That second round pick
- 17:44Speaker 4: would be really appealing if you could help yourself there. Oh,
- 17:47Speaker 4: did I just give you my opinion of the starting
- 17:49Speaker 4: I think I did. I think you got to replace that.
- 17:52Speaker 1: So that's where we are. That's the state of affairs
- 17:55Speaker 1: to the Jaguars.
- 17:56Speaker 4: There's a lot of opinions, and that's what happens when
- 17:58Speaker 4: you lose five of your last six.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Opened the door, go while it's gonna be loud and noisy,
- 18:04Speaker 1: all off Seaton around the Jaguars display that this guy
- 18:08Speaker 1: strap in and hang out.
- 18:10Speaker 3: Rob.
- 18:13Speaker 1: That was guy Stevens.
- 18:14Speaker 4: It's too bad that he didn't have a game.
- 18:15Speaker 1: It's too I know, a little scratching. Claud Kay Stevens,
- 18:21Speaker 1: Brian Sexton, John os Im, JP, Shadwick. Thank you for listening,
- 18:25Speaker 1: The Jaguars reported,
