What recent changes have affected the Jaguars' roster?

Jay Lawrence 0:02
It's seven degrees in Wrexham. It's seven degrees in Edinburgh. 23 in Jacksonville. This is Teal Talk, the official Jacksonville Jaguars podcast in the UK and Ireland in partnership with Gallagher. I'm Jay Lawrence. and their relation. Hello, Reece Parkinson.
Reece Parkinson 0:18
Hello, Jay Lawrence. We are back. Another month of doing absolute nothing while we look at any piece of news possible to make this show interesting.
Jay Lawrence 0:28
And not even that. We're overanalyzing every single part of the offseason. And that's what being an NFL fan is all about. Just finding every single scrap and trying to make it seem like the biggest deal possible. How's your no NFL action dry spell going?
Reece Parkinson 0:45
Heartbroken about some of the players that have left. I don't know how you're feeling, but they were painful. But in general, I'm OK. I tried to book. So Jay-Z is doing two nights at the Yankee Stadium in New York. And I was number 205. 250,000 in the queue. So I didn't get any tickets.
Jay Lawrence 1:10
I thought you were about to say that you were like number 212 in the queue or something. No, no, no.
Reece Parkinson 1:16
So that's been the highlight so far since we last spoke of me not getting tickets to JZ.
Jay Lawrence 1:21
I mean, that's been a low month, let's be honest, Rhys. That's the highlight. The highlight is not getting Jay-Z tickets. It's a funny one, really, because March, free agency, Rhys. And we'll talk about this in a second with a special guest. Free agency in March. Jacksonville Jaguars. They're not the busiest.
Reece Parkinson 1:41
No, not at all. And I think, you know, the good thing, though, in previous years, it's kind of been not. Yeah, I think negative. I was going to say not negative, no negative in the comments. But now all I see is in Gladstone, we trust in Gladstone, we trust. And what a great turnaround story. If you just get the in the, no, you get in, then I get glad, you get stoned, I get trust. And it only works when we stand next to each other. How about that?
Jay Lawrence 2:13
Yeah, that'll be really funny once. And in 50 years, you'll be like, right, let me explain.

How does free agency impact the Jaguars' offseason strategy?

Jay Lawrence 2:21
So it was me and my mate. But you know, you are right. You are right. It does feel like there's been a, the attitude is positive. And of course, it's all about the NFL draft race as well. So there's a lot to get excited about.
Reece Parkinson 2:35
And even that, it's really interesting because you kind of compare this to last year. And I mean, our pick this year doesn't seem as sexy as having a top five pick. Was we top five? I was trying to remember last year. We traded up for number two, didn't we?
Jay Lawrence 2:50
We traded up, of course, yeah.
Reece Parkinson 2:52
So then we trade up for number two and this year we're kind of at 56th. With the 56th pick, the Jacksonville Jags. So it's kind of like there's players out there. Don't get me wrong, but a different year, which is nice, which means which usually means if you have a pick like that, if we made a crazy trade like we did last year or we're doing well.
Jay Lawrence 3:12
I have two points on that, right? And, you know, we'll speak about this loads over the next few months, but getting Travis Hunter will feel like a brand new pick anyway, having been injured for so much of the season. And also, and look, I know nothing. I know nothing. I know nothing. But one thing that has been very clear, very obvious over the tenure of James Gladstone, the one season, is he's not scared to trade. So, I don't know. Maybe we'll see something exciting happening on draft night, Reece.
Reece Parkinson 3:41
Yeah, no, it wouldn't surprise me. I mean, how much have you been keeping up with a lot of the players that are coming through? I've seen like, obviously you've got the Mendoza, the QB, he's pretty clear he's going to, and not that we need a QB, but pretty clear he's going to the Raiders. So it seems like, yeah, it's not like a Travis Huntry draft. It doesn't feel like you've got those kind of, Big hitters. The thing that could be interesting is we could, you know, a little backup QB in there. We'll wait and see.
Jay Lawrence 4:15
We'll speak about the drafts in a bit, but I do want to feel sorry for you, Rhys, because as soon as Travis Achan left, been saying his name wrong for years. Achan, we've both spoken to him.
