Transition words & phrases

And, Matt, we'll start with you because we want to get this out there.

What do you think the Jags need to do here?

We think they're gonna draft Trevor Lawrence.

But there are a lot of options for them, right?

I didn't realize we were jacket optional today.

There are a lot of options for Jacksonville at pick number 25 Overall, we spent months talking about what happens at one.

Let's move down to 25 I look at someone who Urban Meyer should be very familiar with a wide receiver from the University of Florida that is called Darius Tony, who can be used in so many versatile ways.

I see him a lot like someone Urban had when he was the head coach of Florida.

Tony can be that h receiver for Urban Meyer.

That means you're going to see him in motion.

There will be times where he motions back to the backfield, catches swing routes in the flats, makes place in space.

But today, Tony was exceptional after the catch.

He's not maybe the fastest guy in the open field of fellas.

I think this roster is much, much closer than people realize that they can draft well in 2021.

Weight really fast before bigger jumps in, Like, how close are they?

Matt, Are you talking the next two years?

Yeah, I think within the next two years they can compete in that division to be winning.

They're about to trade away the Shawn Watson.

No one believes that they will be building the Tennessee Titans cut two starters in the secondary right now, so Tennessee not ready either.

So I look at this division has Jacksonville probably not competing this year, but I do think they are on the way up a lot like Cleveland was two years ago where we saw Hey, if they can get a couple things right, they're gonna be competitive.

Two years ago, you would have laughed at me if I said the Browns were in the playoffs in two years.

Well, first of all, this the first time we've been on the other.

But when you talk about the Jaguars being close, buddy Hey, close.

They to me, they aren't anywhere close to being ready to compete because their offensive line is terrible.

They're gonna draft Trevor Lawrence, number one.

I don't think there's any secret whatsoever, but if they put him behind, an offensive line is currently constructed.

Very similar the way that Joe Burrow got killed in Cincinnati.

So the first thing I hear you with Darius, Tony, you can give him Kyle pits Jamaar Chase and Devante Smith.

It doesn't matter if the offensive line doesn't get better, because it's terrible.

So much in the fact that they put a franchise tag on Cam Robinson, who, in my opinion, should have been franchised.

But that just shows you how desperate Jacksonville is to keep some offensive line talent.

They gotta go out and build this offensive line in the draft and then maybe, just maybe, Maddie.

I can be talked into drafting a receiver later on.

But earlier on, we got to get offensive and defensive line help.

I know the line of scrimmage gotta get fixed in order for you to be trending in the right direction.

This quarterback spot for Jacksonville has been a conundrum for a long time, and they get that fixed.

As far as now we build for a guy that we believe will be a franchise guy.

Even when they went to the conference championship, nobody in hell thought Blake Bortles was good.

We love going to Minshew and the things that he did and actually performed at a high level in this league for a while.

Even then talks about Gardner Minshew potentially being a starter.

But he ain't Trevor Lawrence is gonna fix a lot of stuff that they need fixed in Jacksonville.

So, to your point, Matt, I understand the concept of what you're talking about.

If you don't fix or have a line of scrimmage in the NFL, you ain't close to nothing.

So depending on what they do in that level in the trenches is when I can determine how close Jacksonville is, they ain't close right now, you know.

Picture this draft 11 picks its $74 million they have.

Let's watch them next week, for sure at one thing, too.

I mean, I'm gonna write it down on this day.

Matt Miller said that the Jacksonville Jaguars might be contenders in their division in a couple of years, so if you're right, Matt will go back to it.

If you're wrong, we'll just forget about It's fine.
