Episode 114: An "Intangibly Rich" Draft
Manage episode 479541309 series 3313457
James Gladstone makes a bold statement in his first draft as Jaguars GM by trading up to secure Travis Hunter, signaling a new era of aggressive team building in Jacksonville.
• Trading picks 5, 36, 126, and a 2026 first-round pick to move up to pick 2
• Travis Hunter represents a potential game-changing player who can line up at both cornerback and wide receiver
• Team plans to primarily use Hunter on offense with situational defensive snaps
• Adding Caleb Ransaw (DB, Tulane) and Wyatt Milum (OL, West Virginia) in the third round to address secondary and offensive line
• Later picks focused on adding depth at running back, linebacker and offensive line
• Signing Emmanuel Ogbah immediately after the draft shows proactive approach to roster building
• New regime establishing clear identity with "intangibly rich" player acquisitions
• Dramatic contrast from previous management's conservative approach
Touchdown Jaguars Linktree
James Johnson and Phil Smith bring you the best and most up to date Jacksonville Jaguars news. "Touchdown Jaguars!" is a tribute to the prospective ownership group "Touchdown Jacksonville!" In 1991, the NFL announced plans to add two expansion teams and "Touchdown Jacksonville!" announced its bid for a team, and Jacksonville was ultimately chosen as one of five finalists. In November 1993, the NFL owners voted 26–2 in favor of awarding the 30th franchise to Jacksonville. James and Phil have been fans of the franchise ever since and have had the honor (and sometimes dishonor) of covering the team professionally since 2017. The rest as they say, is history.
