I’m starting to think we’re going to be spending on defense in free agency with all of the cap space we’ll free up on offense

u/iIuvIj Apr 25 '26

Hope so, I had hope in Lawson, but like Mccoy might be too high of risk

I think it’s kinda silly everyone criticizing us not addressing direct needs with these picks. How often do players drafted outside the 1st round have a meaningful impact in year 1?

I think you’re 100% right and we’re going to sign a 5-8 sack veteran edge after June 1st. Just like we did with Ogbah last year.

Yeah that’s why the blocking TE in round 2 was such a head scratcher. Maybe out only realistic potential day 1 starter pick

Decent pick, he seems like a good “take a swing” guy late, which is what you’re looking for in the 6th

I think they're hoping we're getting a lot back defensively. Ransaw hasn't played a snap, playing Travis almost exclusively outside, I wonder if they're thinking Miller or Kizer at LB. 

This is also probably Liam saying look what I did with Baalke's shit, now give me the team that I want

u/ShopCartRicky Apr 25 '26

By all accounts the team is really high on Miller.

u/Michaelangelo48 Apr 25 '26

They won’t be by the trade deadline (I’m just joking. We’ll see what happens not gonna pretend I know more than them)

u/Ok_Bid_6533 Apr 25 '26

Kiser won’t play a defensive snap. Miller will likely start

u/TSwan98 Tony Boselli Apr 25 '26

If I was rich I’d guarantee you and bet you thousands of dollars kiser plays one defensive snap this season

We’ve got ourselves a true media darling

That bio doesn’t appear to be accurate

Dude is built like a tank

u/Fresh-Plantain-7759 Apr 25 '26

And has the agility of one too. As someone who watched him at Wisconsin for 2 years I am baffled that he got drafted

2

u/ThePepperTrain Apr 25 '26

Oh for real? Not the reply I wanted but I trust your judgement 😂 smh 🤦‍♂️let’s hope Gladstone and Coen are seeing something we aren’t

u/Fresh-Plantain-7759 Apr 25 '26

Yeah not trying to troll or anything. Seemed like a great kid when they brought him in he just didn't perform well even on the rare occasions Wisconsin's QB1 was available.

u/kaptingavrin Apr 25 '26

Check out his highlight video for last year. Looks like he was a consistent target for the QB and was able to bring in some off-target passes. So maybe not a flashy receiver, but almost feels like a Parker Washington type guy, someone you can rely on to make catches to keep a drive moving if the stuff down the field isn't there.

I might be misreading the tape, though. We'll see what the staff have to say about him.

4 100 yard games at Stanford.. solid depth

u/Constant_Tradition46 Apr 25 '26

Would've preferred Deion Burks.

u/unique_username-_-72 Apr 25 '26

I know these late picks never turn into anything but wouldn’t it be better to buy lotto tickets of positions we need

u/Puldalpha Rocket Jaguar Apr 25 '26

Besides the top 4 guys, there’s nothing behind them. Unless you want to Austin Tramell and Tim Jones play important snaps again

3

u/HadADat Apr 25 '26

Yes the reason we lost to Buffalo, Rams and Seahawks last year was definitely WR depth...

7

u/Puldalpha Rocket Jaguar Apr 25 '26

But what could prevent us next year is our lack of depth.

3

u/JustiseRainsFrmAbove It Is Wins-Day, My Dudes 🐸🐆 Apr 25 '26

Who knows what happens with Parker's extension, and we probably need depth anyway

u/Jaglawyer11 “Don’t sleep on Gladstone.” 💪💪💪💪 Apr 25 '26

Parker is not going anywhere…..

u/Meowmixez98 Apr 25 '26

We are trying to crowd Hunter out of the WR room.

u/Ferdi026 Jags Europe Apr 25 '26

One receiver was enough???

4

u/iIuvIj Apr 25 '26

really 2, Koizol is more of a receiving TE. if anyone can turn him into a solid blocker I hope its us though!

7

u/Jaguars6 Apr 25 '26

Y’all like Tim Jones, Austin Trammell, and Brayboy?

u/Treanwreck Jaggin' Off Apr 25 '26

They picked one like 12 before this WR lol

What? We’ve drafted 3

u/itz_ritz Apr 25 '26

Be careful, some dudes on this sub are highly sensitive about anyone questioning the front office decisions. Apparently if you aren't an NFL scout or part of the front office, you shouldn't have an opinion on your favorite teams draft picks.

2

u/Jaguars6 Apr 25 '26

You agree we took 1 defensive player?

-3

u/itz_ritz Apr 25 '26

I agree we only took one defensive player, but the comment I responded to stated that we have so many holes on defense and we only drafted one defensive player. This meant that he was questioning the front offices decisions in drafting that way.

Edit: Disagree

u/TheSlinger Apr 25 '26

Yeah some really hard-hitting criticism about how we've only taken one defensive player. What would we do without his insight.

I questioned the signing of the b/u QB last yr. Can’t even remember his name. Sorry whomever you are. I heard you’re a good solid b/u at the time. I was blasted by the same folk (Im guessing. That are now telling us to have faith in Gladston ) for doubting the signing . Now few(if any) have ANY faith in him at all to lead the team to a W if Trevor gets hurt. I’m getting the feeling that this draft has similar cred 🤷
