Official Jacksonville Jaguars Forum Thread

[Leftwich]

Well its been reported on NFL Network that the Jaguars and Jets have a deal in place that if the Jets player that they want is there at 8 that the Jaguars will trade back to 17.

We better be getting a good deal out of this or i'll be pissed.

 

[Obst]

The only way I will be pissed is if we trade Jaguars trade that pick while Crabtree is still on the board, if Crabtree is gone, and we move back to 17 and get Darius Butler or Malcolm Jenkins then I won't be that mad at all. It's just if Crabtree is there at 8 then we better draft him right away.

 

[Obst]

Eugene Monroe, not a bad pick at all, but what does this do for Tony Pashos?

 

[Obst]

Eben Britton over Darius Butler.
Fuck you Gene Smith

 

[jaggles82]

ya that was a terrible pick, if you were going to do that why not take crabtree. garrard should have some time to hook up with holt though now

 

[Obst]

Yeah if we were going to go Tackle in the 2nd round then why not Crabtree in the first?

 

[Leftwich]

I have a feeling Pashos is gonna be moved to guard and Monroe is going to be our RT. Britton will probably sit behind Thomas until he is ready to retire. We're going to have one of the best O-Lines in the league. We still need to address WR and DT. We should go after Derrick Williams in the 3rd.

So then what do we do, just release Vince Manuwai or Maurice Williams?

I really don't have a clue. We're finally going to kick start our O-Line and its gonna be a good season if these guys pan out.

 

[Obst]

I just think Britton shouldn't of been drafted.
If we were drafting for Tra Thomas's replacement then it doesn't make any sense cause Pashos is only 28, so in 2 or 3 years when Tra is gone then we just plug Pashos in. Now we have too many starting lineman, I mean its good to have depth but come on. We had a need at WR, DT, CB, and RB that still need to be addressed and we did the same thing as last year by drafting the same position twice, its just so frustrating.

I feel for you but we're drafting for the future and for instances like last year to never happen again. We can still get a quality player in the 3rd round but if we do draft another OL, I'll lose all hope.

 

[Obst]

I just hope Wide Receiver is the next thing we address cause Torry can't do it all on his own.

Like I said before, Mike Walker is going to shake the injury bug this year and become a dependable #2. He showed flashes last season and could deliver in a big way this year.

 

[Leftwich]

I kinda hope Jacksonville takes Louis Murphy. It would be like reuniting the 2006 Florida Gators National Championship team. Nelson, Harvey and Murphy.

yeah we should have gotten crabtree, give garrad some help, matt wont be there and reggie in trouble and shit, i hope lewis gets better needs to learn how to hold on to the ball, and im liking our Oline right now. we have actually always had a good Oline is just that they all got injured this year

Go on youtube and watch highlights of Eugene Monroe and Eben Britton. Holy hell!

 

[FlawLeSs]

im disappointed in not picking up crabtree </3

 

[Obst]

Well I'm really confident that we can get back to our run first offense which is our identity. But the other thing we have been known for is our stellar defense. With no pass rush and being weak at the corner position how are we going to be able to improve off last season? Tomorrow we need to come out and make the right moves. I think we should go with DJ Moore in Round 3 which would be incredible value getting him so late. Then hopefully Javon Ringer falls to us in the 4th to add a one two punch at running back. We can finally address WR in the 5th round where I think a guy like Patrick Turner will be there. If we can get these three guys, then I will gain full confidence back in Gene Smith.

 

[Obst]

Well the Jaguars did good so far by addressing our two biggest needs right away.

Terrance Knighton is a massive DT, he is 6'3 321 lbs and is a perfect 4-3 DT. Finished the season with 54 tackles, including 35 solos, five break-ups, a team-best three fumble recoveries, a hurry, and blocked kick, and a sack. He is going to fit in perfectly being put next to John Henderson and maybe now Henderson won't be double teamed every play.

Derek Cox In 2008, he compiled 43 tackles, 2 TFLs, 3 interceptions and 5 other passes broken up. Set the NFL scouting world on its ear with an outstanding Pro Day workout where he ran 4.39/4.42 seconds in the forty with a 36.5" vertical, an 11'8" (best this draft season by any player from any school at any position) broad jump, a 4.11 short shuttle, a 6.80 3-cone drill, and 12 reps on the bench. Big, rangy corner who has some really nice coverage skills. Legitimate makeup speed. Has decent hands and has become more and more dangerous as an interception maven and big play corner every season. Fluid and athletic.

yeah our D was awful last season, i miss mike smith, and i fuckin hate greg williams, also the play calling was awful too, all we did was screens and runs, never took risks.
