Half those guys were drafted by Caldwell and his scouts. I wouldn't mind using one of the 4th round picks to trade up into the 2nd round or high 3rd round to nab someone who falls at a position of need. (03-25-2023, 01:58 PM)cat bells Wrote: Yeah .... Personal preference but id (certainly) put OL and (probably) put nickel slightly ahead at the top of our list of needs. After that id also fancy a TE, something on the DL and safety .... And wouldn't have turned my nose up at a late round running back before they signed Johnson (which seems a solid pick up) ... But you can't have it all!! ... With a less than extensive knowledge of the draft prospects my reference to TE was clouded simply because the depth of prospects at that position seems particularly strong this year so (in theory) Baalke should be able to come out with a useful player at the tight end position slightly easier. ... I 'd be honest and say I'm also assuming (possibly naively) that we can get hold of Smoot and Campbell on the line... Failure to do so obviously changes things a bit in that regard... I wouldn't over value nickel. Undersized CBs grow on trees. Trust the scouts and try to find a diamond in the ruff with one of the 4th round picks and then bring in a couple more as undrafted FAs to compete with Herndon. If none of them can beat out Herndon, bring in some more bodies when teams start trimming their rosters.

I feel we have done more than enough to address the RB situation tbh I agree with what u said about 6th round, There will be alot of UDFAs that we can snag up afterwards, which I'm sure should have 1 hidden gem in them somehow We show less advertisements to registered users.

Yup and even then I dunno if I'd spend a 6th, or 7th on a RB. I'd definitely bring in an UDFA, or two at RB because why not, but that RB room locks pretty locked up for the most part. ETN isn't going anywhere, Johnson and Hasty (both FA signed/re-signed) lock down RB 2 and 3. Don't waste more draft picks on a RB. Let the UDFAs compete against Snoop and if he gets beat out so be it. Which I wont be a bit surprised if that happens. Doug said he wants his RBs to play Special Teams and Snoop didn't play a single ST snap this past season (only 38 total snaps in 8 games, 21 of which came in two games). It'll just depend on if they want to admit that they made a bad trade/pick for him this season, or next season. I think the writing is on the wall for him regardless.

Some of these edge rushers we're interviewing are probably gone within the top twenty. Not sure if that means they're hoping a player falls or if they're willing to trade up to grab a guy but I am a little uneasy about the trading up part.
Again, I don't personally feel that this team is one player away from winning it all. Getting really, really bad 2007 going into 2008 vibes at the moment. We all thought we needed pass rushers after we lost to New England due to a botched QB situation between Leftwich and Garrard and we ended up betting the farm on guys like Harvey and Groves. This left us scraping up street free agent no names mid week to start in games that very same Sunday along the offensive line after it completely fell apart. The fact that we have seen minimal discussions or interviews from this class with this group of lineman is concerning. Especially considering the durability concerns with Robinson at LT, Bartch at LG and Scherff at RG. Little still has to get his work and teeth cut this summer in hopes of resolving our RT position. While having Wells back is nice. He's a swing tackle that we need. He's also coming back from IR. This unit is going to be rusty man. Just have a bad feeling about it. Especially with this schedule and the opponents listed on it. Trust in Baalke I guess but if they fork over a 2nd or 3rd RD pick while swapping out the 24th pick to move up to draft an edge rusher? That's going to leave our [BLEEP] out to dry potentially when we're going to need more pass protection. "What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."

This seems to be the consensus, but didn't he mostly suck the whole time he was here previously. I definitely agree with taking a tackle high that could start at guard for a year or two and eventually take one of the tackle spots.

I like Nolan Smith and JPJ but I don't think either are realistically going to be there at 24. Wright will be the Jags RT for 10+ years along with Little at LT.

(04-13-2023, 12:55 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote: Derrick Hall meeting with the Jags today Hall is in a group of 2nd round prospects who would play Edge in a 3-4 defense. Uzomah, Hall, Ojulari, White, Adebawore and Foskey are all possibilities if the Jags don't select Nolan Smith or Myles Murphy in round 1. Those who believe the Jaguars should go back to a 4-3 base would prefer Murphy in Round 1 and play him at defensive end along with Josh Allen. Walker could play both DE and DT in this scheme depending on the situation. In this scheme, Oluakon, Muma and Lloyd would be starting linebackers. Personally, I believe the current roster is better suited to play the 4-3 since Walker would be much more effective playing with his hands on the ground. Baalke needs to swallow his pride and recognize that Walker is never going to be the Edge rusher he envisioned when selecting him ahead of Hutchinson. He can still become a very effective player on the defensive line commanding double-teams and opening things up for others to get sacks.

Agree on the 4-3. It will be interesting to see what we do in the draft. I think Lloyd, Muma, and Walker will be much improved this year regardless of what type of defense we run.(04-13-2023, 12:55 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote: Derrick Hall meeting with the Jags today |
