• 0:19
  Speaker 1: and now the real reason Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: don't get along. Jay Peace Shadrick. I don't want anything
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: to do with that or not. It's not my business.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: You get some publicity out of it, the way that
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: story has been rolling. It has been rolling out the
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: last couple of days. Welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour, not
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Packers happy Hour. J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagaman. Tony Boselli
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: is in Ireland where you're here. He's on a trip
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: with his dad and his brother somewhere in Ireland. If
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they are. I don't know if his hips
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: can take it anymore. That good trip, Ireland, I hear,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: it's pretty awesome. I've been to Scotland, way cool, and
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I hear Ireland is just as good. You know that's
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: an island over. Let's just the British geographically aware of that. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I passed that class in high school. The ones you
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: took in college at Alabamia did actually very much? Did
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: you really? So? You had a major and broadcasting a
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: minor and geography that, yes, this is what you got.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: It's probably good to have some people in Alabama, you know,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: especially the University of Alabama tech geography classes, because most
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: of them never get out of state. Well, without geography,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: you're nowhere. Think about that. That's true. That's what we're
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: getting to. By the way, what about these hip new glasses? Yeah,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: I haven't brought it up yet. You like these, tell
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: me about them. So I my last exam was two
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: thousand six, and I've never seen you wear glasses. Well,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I failed the driver's test to get my license in
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Florida and oh six right, So I had classes back then,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: but they got broken or beat up. But I didn't
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: like wearing they were stupid looking, obviously. So can law
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: enforcement come in and and use that statement as evidence
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to give you a ticket? Whatever? It's out there now,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: So I go back. I've been having some trouble against see.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, it's time and to go get an exam.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: So you're not examine. It's a little worse not to anyway.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: So I got glasses. Okay, So who picked out your frames? Um?
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Me and and I had some resources help out. Okay,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: it's good. You know what do we think you don't like?
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: We got We got a little bit of a audience here.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: What do you think I gotta I got a double
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: thumbs up from Max. Yeah, there's there's double thumbs up, Dave.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Dave weigh in on that single thumb Joe, I'm still above.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Apparently you don't have kind of chickens. You know, they're
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: they're kind of chick glasses. Is that a fact? You're
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: kind of a cross between chick glasses and a pee
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: wee Herman. Look, okay, what you know pee wee Herman?
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: You know, the last time I checked, he didn't have
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: very good reputation. That's great, that's nice. I all I
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: know is that I thought you were ugly before, and
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: now I know that I was right. That's all I know.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: For a fact, I can actually see you know I
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: like him? I do. I actually like him pretty good. Look,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: glass is good on you, j I need all the
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: help out, the more, the more things to cover your
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: face better. That's great. Here's what we're getting to tonight
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: on the program r G three, the Ravens quarterback talking
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: about the Jags. Will hear his comments coming up? I
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: think it smells to be honest with you running back
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: in offensive line depth the Jags have signed a few
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: players over the last week or so. We'll go around
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the National Football including well not even the National Football
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the league that doesn't exist anymore, a f it is.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Speaking of messes, We'll get to that a little bit later.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Robert Griffin the third placed with the Ravens. He's back
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: up quarterback there. He was on a podcast on the
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Ravens website earlier this week and he said the Jags
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: tried to trade for him twice last season. This is
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: a snippet from the Lounge pod cast on Baltimore Ravens
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: dot com. The host were asking him about his free
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: agency options before oak standby, we'll get to that in
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: just a moment. The this has gone away on I mean,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: we'll get back to that in just a moment here,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: but the computers dot dot cooperating with me here. Basically
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: said the Jacks trying to trade for him twice, once
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: at the end of the preseason and once right before
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: the deadline. But let me let me go back because
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: r G three was a free agent last year in
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the all season correct and worked out here. Okay, so
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: why would the Jaguars try try to be trading for
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: a guy they could have had in free agency. It's
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: a good question, right, I mean, I mean, I could
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: maybe understand if if he was saying the Jaguars were
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: maybe were trying to trade for him during the season,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: But the part that he was trying that they were
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: trying to trade for him in preseason makes absolutely no sense.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Not when they had the opportunity couple of months before
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: to sign him in free agency. Now, why would that
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: change all of a sudden. You know, maybe circumstances during
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the season is not going well, Okay, we need to
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: give up something and get together. But I like him before,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: what would you like him now? And here's the other thing.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: If I would have understood if they were maybe talking
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: to r G three back in the spring when Cody
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Kesler didn't look very good in O T, A S
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and such, But then Cody Kesler got to the preseason
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: and he actually looked pretty good. So I didn't think
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: that there would be any reason why the team would
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: have been reaching out to inquire about acquiring a guy
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: that they could have had a couple of months before
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: for no cost. Here's Robert Griffin the Third discussing the Jaguars. Yes,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: you know, Jackson Will tried to trade for me um
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: at the end of the preseason and right before the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: trade deadline. So we knew that that was an opportunity
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: and there would be a chance if things didn't work
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: out with uh with Nick Foles, because you know, Nick played,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't get to play last year, so I understood that. Um,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: So we just kind of wanted to wait and see
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: what would happen. So the topic there was his free
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: agency options, and he was kind of getting asked about,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: for example, Jacksonville. Not sure if you talked about him,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: That's what the host said. He said, and that's when
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: he brought up the trades a couple of times, or
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: the idea of trades because they thought that Jacksonville could
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: be a destination and free agency if the Nick Fulls
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: thing in free agency. So has Coughlin, Nothing on the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: put out any response to that, Nothing on the record. Yeah,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: just that that might be one of those deals where
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: where r G three likes throwing some teams names around
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: and make himself feel more important. I don't know, he's
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: not a starter in Baltimore, right, I mean, Flacco was
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: gone gonna play. It was very fortunate to make the
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: team just because of the quarterback situation that they had
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: there in Baltimore, and uh for him to say that
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars tried to trade, what do you mean tried
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to most If you're saying somebody tried, that means that
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: they didn't give enough to get you. They would have
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: given you away for a biscuit with their quarterback situation
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: him because they had Joe Flacco and obviously a first
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: round draft pick that they're gonna move forward with as
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: their franchise quarterbacks. So it doesn't make a whole lot
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: of sense. It's our grapes maybe. I mean, I don't
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: know why they'd be sour on his part, other than
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I go back to and that he wants to feel
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: important again, and so by saying that a team coveted
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: him or wanted him makes him feel better, I guess,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: or makes him feel more important. I mean, I don't
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: understand anything else on that, So I can tell you this.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I never heard that the Jaguars were inquiring about getting
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: any quarterback throughout the season. Never heard a whisper of that,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: not an inkling, even when things weren't going well midway,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: even when you thought that you wish you would hurt
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: hear something. Didn't hear anything? Well, the speculation out there
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: outside of the building, there's nothing inside I heard anything
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: about that. Hm, So you know what I mean? RG
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: three may come out next week and say that, uh
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick tried to trade for him and was gonna
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: willing to give away Tom Brady. I mean, maybe he's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: gonna throw that out there next week. That would be
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: a bold one. I don't know if that would be
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the case at all. Um. So there you have it.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: That's the big storyline this week. It's you know, the as,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: it's a big storyline. It's everywhere. I just blew up
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the last couple. It's kind of funny to read that.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, are we Are we that desperate for information?
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I guess so you gotta fell because because that became
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: a story, not just here, it became a story in
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: the national websites, publications, et cetera. Whatever you want to
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: call him, and I just I don't I don't get it.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's too much there's too much good information
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: out there on free agency still and the upcoming draft
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: to run a story about RG three saying that a
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: team wanted to or tried to trade for him with
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: nothing to substantiate it whatsoever. Who wrote that anyway? It
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: was in the podcast, but somebody he said it in
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: the podcast, But then people picked up on it and
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: started writing that. I mean, I mean, come on, we're
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: gonna write everything that is set by somebody in a podcast.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I guess if it's quarterback and it relates to Jacksonville,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I guess so well, he didn't check other sources. Maybe
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: then if it's not, I mean, maybe it is true.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: It is I don't know. Maybe the Jaguars were dying
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: to have r G three. You know, when I didn't
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: go to geography class, I went to broadcasting journalism classes,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: and you you get some multiple sources on things. But
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: not anymore, not in this day and age. No, not
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: not not anymore, No, not anymore, not anymore. We'll take
• 9:44

• 14:07
  Speaker 1: room and it looked like it's on the unon Fournette
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: right now and me being in the league five years
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: and you know I'm considered, uh the big brother in
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: the veteran in the room. Uh Fournette and will else
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: comes behind us? That's Alfred Blue, running back signed in
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: free agency just earlier this week. Welcome back Jaguar's Happy Hour.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick. Even if you don't recognize me with
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: the glasses on, that's who I am. That's Jeff Lagman,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Joe Fortunado, Brent Reaverer, David Candice, Patrick Cavanaugh, Ashland Sullivan,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Max Hockman, Bryan Section, her whole crew. Do you miss anybody? No?
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: You sure? Am? I No, I don't think so oh yeah,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Tony Boselli, we're missing Tony oh yet again? Well about that,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: he's imagined that Ireland, Ireland drake and Irish whiskey. Alfred
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Blue has been in the Division US with the Houston
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Texans as part of that running game. There, he scored
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: twice against the Jaguars, one in each game his rookie season.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: He hasn't scored a touchdown against the Jaguars since then.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: What do you make of Alfred Blue and what does
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: he do for this running back room? I mean, he's
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: just been a guy so far in the league. It's
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: not like the Texans have had a dominant running back
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: that has warranted staying on the field the entire time
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: and not taking or not allowing anybody else to contribute.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, so, I mean, it's just it's been a
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: kind of just a guy. Like I said, I mean,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: is he is he solid? Yeah, he's solid. I mean
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: this football team needs better than solid as a backup
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: running back, and I think this team is gonna look
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: towards the draft at finding a guy that can be
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: a little bit more than Alfred Blue. But at the
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: same token, if you if you had to live with
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Alfred Blue as your backup. I think that's fine, but
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: you'd like to be better than that as a backup
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: running back. Giving given what had happened last year and
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: how reliant you have been on your running game, what
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: would you say last season at the start of the
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: year was probably the best running back set up they've
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: had in a little while here with with Leonard as
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: the starter solidified. Yeah, t J. Yelden is the true
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: backup and the end of Corey Grant, you know, ready
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: to roll. And I think I think part of the
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: reason because it was such a good situation, you felt
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: so good about it, I think the team maybe got
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: a little bit too comfortable with that room and and
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: wasn't prepared to deal with the injury situation that happened
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: after that, so then they had to go outside and search.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: And then it cost you a draft pick, which you've
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: got nothing in return, and it was essentially a wasted
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: trade for you. Um So I think that maybe open
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: their eyes a little bit now they're looking to address
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: it because they saw now for Blue and Benny Cunningham,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: which you know, I don't know anything about Benny Cunningham.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Do you know he's special teams guy. I'm talking about
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Benny Cunningham as a running back. No, no, because he
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: hasn't really been Do we have some sound from Benn? Okay,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: let's hear from him, because I want to know more
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: about him, but he kind of I don't know anything
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: about him. Happy to be here, of course, and a
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: guy who has been with the Bears the last couple
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: of years as a special team Yeah, I'm excited. I
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: can't wait to call Nick, you know, talk to him,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: catch up. Um. I didn't get to catch him out
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: of the game when we played Philly in Chicago, but
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: it'd be good to catch you with him. Nick Foles
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: was a teammate of Benny Cunningham's in St. Louis for
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: the Rams that one year when Nick Foles was there,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and we'll get a little bit of a reunion there.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: But cunning Ham's a guy, you know, just special teams
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: player for the most part the last few years. Had
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: very limited time in the backfield in Chicago the last
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: two years, and it's been his career before that in
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: the Rams organization, but Leis and then in the move
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: to l A. They've had some talent in Chicago now
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: running back. Yeah, in fact, they just traded one of
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: them to the Philadelphia Eagles, and that looked Eagle. I
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: think the Eagles are doing a really good job. The
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: running back that they traded for what was his name,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: He was the running back Howard Howard. They traded for Howard,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: and Howard essentially has one year left on his deal.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: And I don't exactly, I don't remember the exact terms
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: of the trade, but it was a fairly inexpensive draft
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: pick that the Eagles gave up round pick Okay, so
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: six round pick okay, that you give up for Howard.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Howard is arguably a starting quality back, correct, I mean
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. The year was fantastic, Okay.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: So the Eagles are getting him on one year left
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: that he has on his deal. So the Eagles are
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: getting a very inexpensive back to come in and to
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: contribute right away, and once that the season is complete,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: if he were to leave in free agency, the compensatory
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: pick that you're gonna get for him may end up
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: being better than what you gave up for him in
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: the trade. So that was really a really good, solid
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: trade I thought for the Philadelphia Eagles to get a
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: player that's gonna give them value productivity, and then also
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: maybe something on the back end when it comes to
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: if you don't sign him, you could get a compensatory
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: pick for him. I mean, that's I thought that was
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: a really good, really good trade for the Philadelphia Eagles,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: and Howry Roseman has been doing a good job with
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. I mean, there's a couple of teams that
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: have done a really good job when it comes to
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: compensatory picks. And obviously the Jaguars have not done a
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: great job with compensatory picks because they've been spending a
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: lot of money in free agency and acquiring people. They
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: haven't been losing people in free agency. So you have
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: to draft better. You have to acquire more talent to
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: lose talent to get the compensatory picks. Which it's it's
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: kind of a game that you've got to play in
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the timing that you you cut players and keep players
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: and all that, but you gotta be good at getting
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: the players first. Patriots are probably the best at it.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Right well, I think that you could argue against that
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: because the Patriots let everybody walk. You see what I'm saying.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: The Patriots let everybody walk. Whereas they've still been. In
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: my opinion, they've been able to overcome the lack of
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: talent because they have a great coach and they have
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: a great quarterback. Look. Other teams can't do that. UM.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: I think the Baltimore Ravens have done a very good
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: job with the compensatory pick formula and UH and the
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Eagles probably right up there. So New England, Philadelphia, Baltimore
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: probably one of the three best teams that at work
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: in the compensatory picks. Let's look at the Jaguars running
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: back room currently, shall we, and we'll go in alphabetic.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Didn't take very long. Elford Blue, Benny Cunningham, Dmitri Flowers
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: who's been here for a year, Oklahoma player it was
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: her last season, Leonard for that, Thomas Rawls, David Williams.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: There's your running back room now. David Williams was the
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: one that they signed off the Denver Broncos practice squad
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: last year, and we had a little bit of a
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: look at him towards the end of the year, but
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: we don't know much about him. I think the draft.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: I think the draft, they've got to find somebody in
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: the draft. I'm also waiting to kind of see what
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: happens with Corey Grant. Coret Grant still out there, he's
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: still free agents, and Corey Grant has He's a different
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: back than Leonard four Nette. He's a different back than
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: most backs because he's got open filled ability, he's got
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: legitimate home run speed, and last year he got hurt,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: we didn't get to see him much. So for me,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I would like to see them bring back Corey Grant.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: And last year they paid paid him pretty good penny.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna cost you a pretty penny
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, Well, it scares you running back coming
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: off a foot injury though, right, I mean that's well,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: I mean it's always scared. I mean, I look, I
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: mean the Jaguars have a great medical staff. I mean,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: if if the medical staff gives the green light on
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: a guy like Corey Grant or anybody, I would trust
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: them completely. I mean they have, in my opinion, they
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: have one of the best medical staff with the trainers
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: and the and the rehab specialists and and Kaplan the doctor.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think they have a top notch crew there,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: so I don't I don't have any concern whatsoever. I
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: would be completely trusting of what they would tell me so,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: but I don't know what the word is on Corey Grant,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: but they but to have somebody who's dynamic like that
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: to add to that offense, to to allow another weapon
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: from Nick Foles to connect with, I think is critical.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: The Jags also added a couple of offensive linemen. Well,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: they're familiar names. Josh Wells is back the tackle position
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: for another year. Uh. Fourteen month old daughter and a
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: baby on the way as well for the Wells family.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: They were here the other day to sign back up.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: It'll be a fifth season out of James Madison missed
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: a lot of time over his career actually with different injuries.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: MR an entire season with a thumb issue a few
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: years back, and he missed a little bit of time
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: last year as well. Eight starts over his career. And
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: then Tyler Shatley back in the fold on the interior
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: of the offensive line, had time in the middle at
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: the center last year with Brandon Lender's injury. Undrafted rookie
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: back in fourteen out of Clemson is back. He's a
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: real quality, quality back up Tyler Shatley in my opinion, Yeah,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: first of all, he's been durable. He has been available,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: and he's played a critical role over the last couple
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: of years with the injuries that they've had on the
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: offensive line, and namely Brandon Lender, who what two out
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: of the last three years have had has had injuries
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: to deal with, and Shatley has done a great job.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: And I always jokingly say, because people always hear me
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: say this, that Tyler Shatley is one of the strongest
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: guys that there is on the Jaguars offensive line. But
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: that's he said the strongest. He is the strongest, the
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: strongest I think he is. I mean, from from what
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I understand, he's incredibly stronger. But he's a good dude.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: He's a good player. I mean that's the important thing.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: And he's been a reliable backup. I mean, reliable backups
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: are not easy to come by. Now. Josh Wells is
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: a little bit different and that he's a he's a
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: good backup because he can swing, he can play left,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: he can play right. The only issue with with Wellsy
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: is that he hasn't been able to stay healthy. But
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: when he's been healthy, he's given you quality snaps. So
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: and is the injury thing. Is it just bad luck
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: or is that something that he will never be able
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: to overcome. I don't know the answer to that. When
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Wellesy was out there last year, how did he play? Overall?
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: He played well? Like I said, I like wealthy. I mean,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: you could make the argument and Baselli said the same
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: thing that he was playing left tackle better than Cam
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Robinson when Cameron before Cam Robinson got hurt. Um, I
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: don't know what's it is he is he Is he
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: a guy that you ever envisioned to be a starter. No,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: he's in my mind he is a career backup swing man,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: can spot you if you a game or two here there,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: if you need some snaps out of him. The issue is, again,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: availability is the most critical aspect of any player's ability,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: and Josh has been or has had limited availability over
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Let me ask you, this
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: is the starting right tackle on the roster currently? Maybe
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: maybe it's it's Will Richardson is right? Okay, draft and
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: see stayed. I mean I liked what I saw out
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: of him before he got hurt. But again, that goes
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: back to what we talked about with with Wellsy is
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: that availability is critical. If can't be available, he can't
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: be a starter. I mean that's just the way it
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: is in the National Football League. I mean, injuries do happen,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: but the guys that can find a way to not
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: be hurt are the ones that are going to be
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: the starters. And I don't know, I mean JP, I
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: mean mean you actually watched some film today together and
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: we're gonna get to some of those guys later on.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: But we watched who many people have mocked to the
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Jaguars and could he be the Jaguar starting right tackle
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: this year? And that's Juwan Taylor from the University of Florida,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: who many people have ranked as a top ten talent
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: in the draft. We had the discussion last week, do
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: you draft a right tackle in the top ten? I
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: think there's an argument that can be made for both
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: ways and and and the way I posted Tony is
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: that in the National Football League right now, of all
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: the right tackles that are in the league, which ones
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: would you say or are or would be worthy if
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: you redrafted of drafting them in the top ten. And
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: I think we came up with two names. Conklin was
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: one of them, and that's pre injury obviously, and then
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: there and Lane Johns, but he was drafted. He was drafted,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: he was the first round pick, and he was actually
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: a left tackle at college as I remember correct. And
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: then obviously with the presence of Jason Peters, who is
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: arguably a Hall of Famer himself, for that type of
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: a player, you're not gonna move him. So but I mean,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: the two guys. But but I mean, that's not a lot,
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: you know. But we watched Joan Taylor today a little bit,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: and he's pretty good. He's pretty good. But I don't
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: think I would draft a right tackle at seven overall
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: if it were me. So unless he is incredibly good,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: like closed the door in the search, you don't have
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: to find a right tackle for a decade and he's
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: gonna be a Pro Bowl caliber player. Could Jowan Taylor
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: be that? Maybe? If he's that good he played on
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: the left side, though, right, I don't know. Uh, here's
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: the left tackle and right tackle are equal value today
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: in this in this day and age. Anybody that will
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: tell you that is full of it. No. I've heard
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: that argument the other day, and I know I will
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: say this. If Juwan Taylor was that athletic and that good,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: why didn't he play left tackle at Florida. Your best
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: pass rushers are right end or right side players. Typically
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: the speed guys are usually coming from the right So
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I look, there's talent on both sides of the defensive
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: side of the ball. Don't get me wrong, but typically
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: the best pass rushers are coming from the right side.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Offensive exactly, defensive right. I always look at defensive perspective.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Of course, they're still looking at it from the offensive side.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Left tackle defensive right, yes, so I mean, but it's
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: just interesting to me. If he was that good, why
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: didn't he play left side? You go back to the
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: guys that were drafted out of Texas A and M.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: It was jokel and then the guy that was drafted
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: by the Atlanta Falcons after Joke Matthews, Matthews, Jake Matthews.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: When Jocal was the left tackle at Texas A and M.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: Where was Matthews right tackle? Then then they moved him
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: over to the left side. So that's what you do.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Your best tackle is on the left side. But in
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: the case of the University of Florida with Jowan Taylor,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: their best tackle was clearly Juwan at the right side.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Maybe we should have looked at the other tackle though,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: maybe the other tack. We did watch the other tackle
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: when he's not that good at Florida, He's not. Hey,
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: let's come back. We'll get into some of the guys
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: who watched today. A lot of defense. Today we went defense.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: That's where the talent is in the top of this draft.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: We lost. Watched a lot of Michigan today. We did.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: We watched one to three three players in Michigan. We
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: watched Montes sweat did uh. We'll get back. We'll get
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: the whole list when we return. Yes, there's plenty to
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: get two. Pr I Productions, the official event production company

• 34:57
  Speaker 1: They upper deck golfing. I think that's new this year
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: and now. In the past they've had logs, They've had
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: like different kind of private event things where you can
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: they have a thing on top of the terrace suite
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: in the South End with a matt and you hit
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: down to a target like during different events. Not a
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: public open thing. It's kind of like what they've done
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: on game Day where they have a p G A
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: player come in and yes, hit a shot, yes against
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Jackson Deville or whatever closest to the pit, which is
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: pretty cool. But now this has expanded. Apparently there's four
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: or five different greens on the playing field and this
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: isn't the only stadium. I hear that they're doing the
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: other NFL stadium. Yes, yeah, that's pretty cool. So that's
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: pretty neat. So limited tea times kind of like a
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: put putt but it's not putt putt, but it's kind
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: of like that kind of that carnival slash golf appeal.
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: It's a part three thing. Basically, you're not you know,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: And what is that place that the top golf? It's
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: kind of like top golf in the stadium? Correct? Can
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: you can you tee off from the upper deck somewhere?
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: That would be cool? But pull out the driver and
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: and go to town. I think out of the stadi.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no drivers allowed. Yeah, I
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: mean from the dupper deck. I mean the most you
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: would need would be like a sandwich might need nine.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: I'm not like one heck of a divot from the
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: upper deck with a sandwich going all the way down
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: to the field. How are you at golf? I'm terrible.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: I thought I saw some photos of you playing golf,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: not long vacation, But I'm not very good at vacations.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. I don't play very much golf.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: I might play one time every two or three years.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: That's wow, that's not often. Yeah. I mean, I grew
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: up playing golf, but I'm just not not into it anymore.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: That I can tell you this. When when I was
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: a player, I used to play golf, and it seemed
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: like every year it was a different swing because there
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: was a different injury that I was contending with. And
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: there was one all season that I had played a
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: lot of golf, and I played the front nine. I
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: think I was like maybe two over. On front nine
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: it was well jet, I mean I was too over,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: not cheating, no foot wedges, no mulligans, none of that.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: And then the back nine, I want to say I
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: was fifteen over, broke three clubs, lost multiple balls, three clubs.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: But now, was this just because you swung wrong? Or
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: I think one end well, I think I some snapped
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: one or two of them, and then I think one
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I'm ended up in the pond, which my buddy got.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: And then I took my golf clubs to the equipment
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: room as we reported a training camp, and and told
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: everybody in the training room that if you would like
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: to have a free set of golf clubs, here you go,
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: and gave it up. I haven't played since, not regularly.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: That was gotta we gotta work. I've played I think
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: like three rounds of golf stance, and one alim was
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: beer golf, which I don't know if that qualifies for
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: beer golf. Yeah, I don't know. If you don't want
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: to hear about that golf, I don't need to go.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: JP UM pretty good though. We uh sat down in
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: the film room today. You invited me to come along. Yes,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: let me rephrase that, because I don't often go, but
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: you asked me come along with you today, which was
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: a nice gesture. I appreciate it. Ye. Well, i've i've
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: I have a list and the list that I'm I'm
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: basing it off of now, and it's a it's CBS
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: is top talent and I don't know who puts this together.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: It's just the NFL Draft Prospect ranking group. And so
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: I've watched a number of people that have been on
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: this list, and I've done it more by positions. While
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: I've watched Nick Bosa's, the Quentin Williams, the Josh Allen,
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: the Ed Oliver's. And so today we went in there
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: and we watched Montes sweat Rashan Gary Devin Bush, who
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: is a linebacker Michigan UH. And then part of watching this,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: we also got to see some Jonah Williams who's left
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: tackle at Alabama, Dwayne Haskins. Because we watched Michigan against
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: Ohio State, we watched Brian Burns from Florida State. UH.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: Clellen Ferrell, defensive end from Clemson, and also because we
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: watched him, we got to see the Christian Wilkins, who
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: is who is an excellent player. Big Daddy can move
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: now he can move. And then they also have Dexter Lawrence.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: So we watched the number of guys and it's it's
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: fun to watch the prospects because soon these guys are
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: gonna be household names. So let's start. I guess the
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: easiest way to start with this is the Michigan guys, right,
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: because there were three guys we kind of watched in Michigan.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: We watched for Shan Gary, as you said, Devin Bush,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: and Chase Winovich is another defensive end there as well,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: number fifteen for them. Um. Obviously Devin Bush is the
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: middle linebacker for that defense. But what's great speed. By
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: the way, he's not real big, he's shorter in statue.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: He's got great speed, He's he's got great striking ability,
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: can cover man. I think he's a legitimate four or
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: four type of guy played the mike UM. I like him.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Is he worthy of drafting in the top ten? Probably
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: not if he's available in the end of the Towards
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: the end of the first round. I think a team
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: is gonna fall in love with him because he's an
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: every down player at a four or four three at
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: the comb If that, if he's available to the Jaguars
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: in round two, he would be a great acquisition for
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: round two. But is he worthy of the seventh overall pick?
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: M M. Maybe maybe, But I think there are some
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: other guys that I would rather have ahead of him
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: at seven. How about Rashan Gary? Would he be one
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: of those? In the main reason why is that I
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: don't think he's a great pass rusher. I think if
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: you're gonna take a guy in the top ten, he
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: better have the ability to rush the pastor and looking
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: at his numbers ten and a half sacks in his
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: career at Michigan, which is three years, that's not enough.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: I mean that's not nearly enough. He is great athlete,
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: though I think he moves very well on the line
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: of scrimmage and in the backfield. I'm surprised that he's
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: not a better pass rusher because of how athletic he
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: appears at times. I think in the Jaguars defense, he
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: would be more in that role of of a class
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: Campbell as far as of a run defender, that big
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: end that they play, and he's a pretty big guy
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: six five to five somewhere in that range, and he
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: is athletic, He's just not He doesn't have a great
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: bag of pass rushing tools or pass rushing moves to
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: make him one of those elite type change, game changing players.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: And then the last player for Biscuit, we're touching on
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: Chase win of Ittt too had a little social media
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: buzz the last day or so because he took a
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: photo from the river at St. John's River here in
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: downtown Jacksonville, so apparently was here. This is visit time
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: for a lot of these prospects. What do you make
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: of win of it? Still very little. We watched to
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: him to he's try hard guy, got great motor, plays hard,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: actually does a really good job with his hands, has
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: more pass rush ability, it seems at times, uh than
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: his counterpart Rashaun Gary. Last year he had five sacks alone.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: So I think he's a good player. Where where does
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: he fit for the Jaguar is probably mid rounds. Mid rounds.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be rated any higher than that.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: If he is, I'd be kind of surprised. He kind
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: of reminds me, uh a little bit that the Pittsburgh
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: Steelers have a linebacker who gets a lot of reps
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: as a backup pass rusher in uh in Nickel sub situations.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: And I can't remember his name, but he a linebacker
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: for the Pittsburgh Steelers and he would take some pass
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: rushing reps and uh, I can't remember his name, but
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: he reminds me a little bit of him, just because
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: he's he's a little bit smaller. He's what, he's six
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: to three, two fifty pounds, which is about the size
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: of the linebacker for Pittsburgh. And I can't remember name,
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: but but he's a good player, I mean plays hard. Uh.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: Is he a great athlete? No, he's not a great athlete,
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: but he's a good enough athlete. But dupree, No not
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: but no, no Williams, no, wait, Bostick, now keep going.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: Those are the starting linebackers. Now, it's not that he's
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: not a starter. He's a back Chickillo, that's it. Anthony
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: chick Anthony Chickolo. He reminds me of Chickolo a little
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: bitcause Chickolo has got some pass rush skills and he's uh,
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: he's a good football player. Okay, alright, Um, now to
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: an athletic freak from Mississippi State. Montez Sweat, long, quick, fast,
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: six five six six two hund and sixty pounds ran
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: a legitimate four four. Are you that's sick? He's a
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: great player. I mean, look at his numbers. Twenty four
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: sacks in two years at Mississippi State. Okay, So compare
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: that to the numbers of a Rashan Gary, he said,
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: So there's the difference you're talking about. There's a little
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: bit of a question mark with Montes Sweat and then
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: at Michigan State before the transfer? Yes, yeah, what happened there?
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: And his buddy kind of said something to the effect
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: of that there were some weed issues involved. Uh m hmmm.
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: How has How does that affect him in the draft,
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: because if he didn't have that in his background, he's
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: a no question top ten pick. Does that affect that?
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Probably not, because it seems like he has I don't
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: want to say rectified those issues, but he's been able
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: to stay clear of any of those issues when he
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: was at Mississippi State. But he's a great athlete. What
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: else helps that? He ran a four or for one
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: at the combine. That's what else. Yeah, I mean that
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: has a tendency to make people forget about the issues
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: that happened a couple of years ago at miss can State.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: But he's a great athlete. He's got great closing speed.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: He has the ability to turn his hips when he
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: gets to the top of the rush. He's an excellent player.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Let's finish with Brian Burns, Florida State pass rusher. Yeah,
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: he's he's unique and that he's a smaller type. He's
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: about to third or played at two thirty pounds at
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: Florida State, but he's reported to be up to like
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: to forty nine at the combine. And well, I mean, look,
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: and I don't understand how somebody can go from two
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: thirty to forty nine. I mean, if look, if you waited,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: I know how to do it. Well, I mean quickly,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: it's a different kind of way. But if you're to
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: forty nine. Now, if I was his coaches at Florida State,
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: I'd be going, why did you do that while you
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: were here? So, I mean that's a question right there.
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: But when you watch the film on him at Florida State,
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: he's athletic, he is fast, is he a dynamic pass rusher. No,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: he plays with his hand in the ground. He also
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: plays in a two point stands as a linebacker. He
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: supposedly is uh excellent leader for Florida State. I don't
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: know if he's an elite talent. I wouldn't put him.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: He's not sweat. He's not sweat. He's not sweat. He's
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: not Nick Bosa, he's not Quinnin Williams. He's not even
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: in that conversation when you're talking about those guys, he
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: he is. He is the next tier. Him and Rashaan Gary.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: You could have a conversation if you are forced to
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: pick one of the two, I'd take Rashaan Garrett. But
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: I mean he's in that conversation with him, that that
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: next tier. Yeah, and it's look, it's we're splitting hairs
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: here of tears, but there is a tear. Montest sweat
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: is is right up there at the top athletically. A
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: great player the ones we watched today. Yes, sure, yeah,
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: he's the best that we watched today. But Quintin Williams,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: I mean I've watched him before, Nick bos I've watched
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: him before. I mean, those three guys are are tremendous.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, Quintin Williams is a two hundred and ninety
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: five pound freak that has almost a ten ft broad
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: jump and has what a thirty something into vertical leap
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: and can't be blocked even in double teams. I mean
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: he's an excellent player. If the Jaguars have the ability
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: to draft Quentin Williams, take him in a dun uh,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: let's come back, shall we um? We'll go around the
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: National Football League and the Alliance of American Football as well,

  Speaker 1: got in the final four, Virginia. Yeah, it was a
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: dumb question. Crazy thing is is that I had to
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: be told from a friend of mine last night that
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: Virginia was in the final four. That terrible in my battle. Um, yes,
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, I had to be told
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: that Virginia was in the World World Series. Yeah, I
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: didn't know. I have no idea that with that either.
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: That's pretty bad I have and I have not watched
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: a basketball game. Yeah, Auburn Virginia, six o'clock, six, six o'clock.
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: I'll be busy. I won't catch it. Well, that's there
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: in the final four. You're not gonna watched Virginia in
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: the finals. I won't. Texas Tech Michigan State at eight

  Speaker 1: and and Michigan State at all. Virginia is gonna win it?
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: Really yeah, book write it down, Lock the Lock. It's
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: the lock of the week. Virginia is gonna win. Virginia
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: is gonna win. Last year they got ousted by sixteen seed.
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: This year they're gonna win it to make that interesting
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: on the side, you know, legally, Okay, all right, that's fine.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: I don't gamble. JP don't know that. I don't either.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: Why are you trying to entice me into the bed?
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: I'm just as I want to talk about something that
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: I have an interest in. Let me say, for the record,
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: I hope Virginia kicks the crap out of Auburn. Thank you,
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: thank you. Well, it's because you're an Alabama that's correct.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: Let's go around the National Football League. This function at
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: the Packers last season. Was that a lock? What a lock?
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: That was a lock? I've never done a lot just
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: function in Green Bay. ESPN put out an interview with
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy yesterday was pretty much positive, but bleacher Report
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: today had a deep dig on the issues under McCarthy
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers, including McCarthy apparently getting massages and skipping
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: team meetings before running back said that quote, Aaron's always
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: had a chip on his shoulder with Mike the guy
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: who a king your coach passed on you when he
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: had a chance. Uh. It's a long, long article. You
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: should check it out on bleacher Report. But this is
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: all kind of after the fact postmortem here, I wonder
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: why ESPN came out with an article on him first
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: and foremost, is there some type of a future relationship
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: between ESPN and Mike McCarthy. And this is given pub
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: to Mike McCarthy in a positive light, because that's the
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: article that was positive. The Bleacher Report was more of
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: a of a questioning article or a negative light for
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy. Sure, so what do you believe? Well, first
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: off of, ESPN didn't ask Mike McCarthy a lot of
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: questions about the negative aspects of his tenure with with
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. But the reality is, like Mike
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: McCarthy is a Super Bowl winning coach, and uh, there's
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: not many guys that have taken a team to win
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. But there's not many guys that have
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: had the luxury of having a quarterback like Aaron Rodgers either,
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: And it is probably think part of the conversation and
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: the narrative with Mike McCarthy McCarthy will always be why
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: have they not been in contention for more Super Bowls
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: when you have a quarterback like Aaron Rodgers? And I
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: think that's a legitimate question, I really do. But if
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: you were to ask Packer fans or Jaguar fans or
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: other fans of other teams that, if you have to
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl in their history, would they take
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: a ten year tenure with a Mike McCarthy with one
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: super Bowl win and pretty good success for maybe some
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: under performing years in there as well. Uh yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: So you've seen the last ten years around here. Yeah,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: take him? Take him in a minute, you know. So,
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: I like, I don't know what to make of it,
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: but Mike McCarthy has been a good football coach. Aaron
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: Rodgers is correct quarterback. Should he have won more? You
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: could make that case did he get as much as
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: he possibly could out of Aaron Rodgers? And could Aaron
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: Rodgers have been more of a leader with that organization argument?
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: Make that argument here, no doubt. Let's go outside the
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: NFL to the Alliance of American Football that ceased operations
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: before the end of the season the funding backed out.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: Reports of players stuck in cities and hotels without funding
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: to pay for flights, and in some instances now reports
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: coming out that players had to pay for their final
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: hotel bills their own credit cal Was it Tom Dundin
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: was the financial backing. He was the owner of the
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: Carolina Hurricanes NHL hockey team. Came in like week two
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: or so of this. Yeah, he was minority, then became
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: the majority, and Ebersol was involved as well as Bill Poleion.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: They were on more of the football side. Yeah, they
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: were kind of running things. What a shame that they
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: they fold operations and they leave a lot of these
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: players in the in the dark and on the street,
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: and some of them with medical conditions that they need
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: medical attention for and now they're on their own. So
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: I think that could be a lesson for a lot
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: of guys that are thinking about joining some startup football
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: league is look, it may not be worth your time
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: and it may not be worth the physical elements that
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: you leave that game with from that level of professionalism,
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: because that was that's pathetic, it's embarrassing. There was a
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: moment earlier where the NFL had instructed all teams to
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: refrain from contacting players of the a F or their
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: agents they had not been technically released from the contracts.
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: At about one thirty today, that changed with a tweet,
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: effective immediately, all players can sign with the NFL clubs
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: and I'm sure that is ongoing, and it sounds like
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: there was a couple of signings this afternoon after that
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: went down out of the a F, so that at
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: least is moving ahead. And I don't understand it, because
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: they had they had a deal with the networks, so
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: the networks were they had programming ready to go for
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: the a S. So if was the programming not giving
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: enough money to the a F to run the operations,
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: I guess not. I think one of the games was
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: supposed to be on CBS this week, National networks, so
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: and you know, and there's been a report I think
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: it was from Albert Brier that talked about Dunnan's willingness
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: to be the majority owner was because he wanted this
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: gambling app. I don't know exactly what the details are
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: of all of that, but it was that's a story. Um. Now,
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: speaking of other leagues, Clemson's Justin Ross, the wide receiver,
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: the star of the national title game at Clemson, remember him,
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: number eight? Good player, great player? Um. He said there
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: could be some players who leave college to go to
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: the XFL. Now, the XFL starts next year, will not
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: wait three years like the NFL to to get players.
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: They're gonna allow a year out of high school player
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: to come play in the XFL. And maybe not somebody
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: of his caliber or the quarterback at Clemson's caliber, but
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: somebody mid tier that needs some money and means to
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: go play, could gets kicked out of school. Correct, and
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: it's not eligible. Uh, there's a lot of it would
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: be an option for some and that Andrew Luck's dad
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: is helping run that XFL organization. Will it? Will it
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: draw players out of college to the XFL? No? Will
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: some end up falling back on the XFL because it's
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: like their only option because they failed out of school
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: or had a suspension or whatever. Yes. Best wishes to
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: Kelly Stafford, Matt Stafford's wife undergoing surgery for a brain
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: tumor later this month. That was announced earlier this week.
