  1. Moves like that make you smile. We should never pick a #3 WR when we have questions about retaining someone like Moton. Can you imagine our line right now without him? The move by Hurndog still makes you cringe at how typical it was for him to let someone like Bradberry walk and sign Shaq to a huge deal. We could have tagged and traded and the least.
  2. This confirms it. If/When Erving goes down it will be Moton as LT and Brady Christiansen or Scott as RT.
  3. Panthers were mentioned in article (not as being interested, just listed as a team that would make sense) so I thought it would be an interesting discussion as many have brought him up before. I still do not have confidence in PJ as a number 2 but ultimately I don’t believe the team would make a move like this because of the drama it would cause around Sam being the starter. Article: The Jaguars are trying to continue to create the impression that Trevor Lawrence has not yet earned the starting job in a competition with Gardner Minshew. While there’s a chance it’s a legitimate contest (Lawrence seemed to perform better on Saturday night against the Browns), the better explanation is that the Jaguars are perplexed that they’ve yet to get a decent trade offer for Minshew, and that they’re showcasing him a bit. On Monday, Meyer perpetrated the ruse, if it is one, when asked whether Lawrence would start the next preseason game, against the Saints. “I think there’s a decent chance,” Meyer said. “We haven’t made that decision yet.” They inevitably will. Lawrence inevitably will start. They didn’t make Lawrence the No. 1 overall pick in the draft to not put him on the field. The other question is whether they’ll find a trade partner for Minshew, if they want one. Frankly, it’s amazing they didn’t get a solid offer for him months ago. He has 37 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions through two seasons, he’s under contract for a mere $865,000 this year, and he’s signed through 2022. He can play, he has proven it. And there are teams that would benefit from his presence as a backup. He’d be an ideal understudy to a star quarterback whose status as the starter isn’t in question. He’s also a guy who could be used by the coaching staff and/or front office to push a starter who may be on tenuous ground if he doesn’t perform at a high level. Teams like the Seahawks (Minshew played at Washington State), the Chiefs, the Ravens, the Cowboys, the Cardinals, the Rams, the Falcons, and the Titans would upgrade their No. 2 quarterback with Minshew — and he’d be no threat to take the starting job. Teams like the Giants and Lions would have a potentially viable replacement in the event Daniel Jones or Jared Goff, respectively, don’t get it done this season. In Carolina, Minshew seems to be a much better alternative at No. 2 than P.J. Walker or Will Grier. Hell, Minshew may even be a better option than starter Sam Darnold; dollar for dollar, Minshew definitely provides better value. It’s stunning, frankly, that Jacksonville hasn’t gotten more interest this year for Minshew. Although the number of competent quarterbacks has increased in recent years, teams still need them. Minshew has shown that he is one of them. Maybe the Jaguars will just keep him as the No. 2 to Lawrence. With Minshew’s justifiable desire to play, he may not be the ideal guy to mentor Lawrence. The longer Minshew is listed as the co-starter in Jacksonville, the greater the chance that he’s the featured vehicle in the showroom. And if no one bites before Week One, the Jags can just keep Minshew until an inevitable injury happens and a need for his presence immediately arises. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/08/16/if-the-jaguars-are-showcasing-gardner-minshew-plenty-of-teams-should-be-interested/
  4. I agree with you but we are in a state where our current starter has a track record of being terrible, and injury prone. Our backup is on the level of most teams practice squad.
  5. Secondary is a question mark but I will say that I am much more confident in our depth if we have someone go down compared to last year. Troy Pride looked like someone who is at the bottom of our depth chart yesterday before injury, and last season he was our starter/main backup.
  6. I actually feel like he was in the below average range last season (His PFF scores were right at the lower average range, and that performance can be expected in a backup) but he is clearly regressing. Who the hell knows….all I know is we are in fire mode at tackle. Imagine if Moton goes down for any period of time
  7. They are hoping he can be key depth at tackle so they are playing him as much as possible. They have realized we have a 911 depth situation on our hands after watching Trent Scott. When you get benched for Greg little…..you have a major problem.
  8. Lol zero chance he’s cut. They’re ant to continue to get reps and build stamina to play an entire game. He will be a key part of the D line rotation and they want to give him more experience from all spots including the inside
  9. He had multiple pass plays where he looked rough like this. The run game was even worse. Overall I would say it is an extreme stretch to say he even had a solid half…much less “great”.
  10. 7 penalties will do that at the half. Most were on our O line.
  11. I correct myself, he had one but another one was called on the TE when it was Christensen who flinched hard at the same time (Smitty pointed it out in the broadcast)
  12. It absolutely has the potential to be. Overall depth….no question this is the best we have ever had.
  13. It does not happen often, but I totally disagree with you. He had multiple penalties, and got overwhelmed in the run game big time. He was….okay in pass protection, but multiple times PJ had to roll out of the pocket to avoid pressure. I will agree that the right side looked better than the left, but it was not a great first half.
  14. I actually agree with you but man it is tough to swallow watching a young talented team get killed in a spot like that. Games Okung would miss at least the backup would be Erving.
  15. He will barely see the field this year. CMC will more than replace Samuels role/production. We have the benefit of having an actual threat at TE this year along with another more talented WR in Marshall compared to last year.
  16. Very excited to see the young talent on our team in this first preseason game. I see depth in areas I was previously concerned about, but the one area that is a glaring weakness is still Left tackle. We know what we have in Moton, but Trent Scott looked completely lost today, and Christensen was just as bad. Erving has already been injured in camp and even if healthy he’s a huge question mark. It’s very likely that he misses time in the regular season, and whoever replaces him with be a massive liability and could single handedly give us a loss. Do we use some of that extra cap and bite the bullet even though we know Okung himself would be a question mark? What say ye Huddle GM’s?
  17. Lol at people who overreact to this. Moton didn’t start his first year and I think that turned out just fine.
  18. He is such a major part of our team. I cannot wait to see him with an actual threat at TE in Darnold, along with DJ, Anderson, and Terrace Marshall.
  19. Live updates from from camp can be found in this video.
  20. Happy hump day to you all. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water today (at least 8 glasses) and take your vitamins.
  21. “Congratulations! You increased your rank to TROLL!”
  22. I like Daley but he has shown zero ability to stay healthy and be a dependable starter for us
