They detail their thoughts on Baalke, the coaching, who they would release (Kirk and Engram), who they would hire and sign as well as a mock draft.

It’s an hour and a half but a very good listen.

Yea, it was a good listen. No doubt, the 2 commentators were very knowledgeable overall and particularly about the Jaguars. There were things I believe they missed on, however, such as their high praise for Cisco and Lloyd. No arguing about how terrible the 2020 draft was as well as the selection of Walker over Hutchinson in 2022.

They recommend trading back 1 spot and still landing Hunter and taking players for both interior lines on day 2. In free agency, they would target a cornerback such as Charvarious Ward and interior lineman like James Daniels or Teven Jenkins, despite his history of injuries. They don't see the Jaguars being in the market for Trey Smith. Somewhat surprising is their recommendation to let both Kirk and Engram go in free agency. While I could see one of them not being re-signed, losing both would be too harmful to Lawrence since Gabe Davis has shown nothing so far.

Most disturbing is that they wouldn't be surprised if Baalke is retained as G.M. While that is not their recommendation, one gets the impression that it wouldn't shock them if this happened. Their top 3 coaching candidates are Ben Johnson, Liam Coen and Klint Kubiak. It was interesting to see the opinions of 2 outsiders, whether one agrees with them or not.
