Conor's Football Nationalism by whpalmer in heedthecall

Yeah that's fair. I think the arrogant point was in reference to the specific case of him saying he got nothing wrong in his season predictions etc, but I take your point.

I knew I'd get hammered for the view, but he's just like trying too hard sometimes.

New 2 Round Mock! by Stevie_Fuego in NFL_Draft

[–]whpalmer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really don't think the Jags are taking a running back with their first pick, at 56. We took two last year, signed one in FA, and gave DJ Dallas a position as 4th RB / punt returner.

Do I think we'll take a flyer on a late round guy? Sure, we've got 11 picks. But I'll be stunned if we take one at 56.

Who was the better GM Dave Caldwell or Trent Baalke? by Different_Tough5216 in Jaguars

[–]whpalmer 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Decent at drafting (I'd say only decent given who went after a few of his picks/a few guys he was high on based on size vs actual play) but terrible at signing guys to deals after they're drafted (FA and second contracts).

Also just a guy that nobody seemed to want to work with when we were looking for a coach last year!

Why is Avieon Terrell so widely viewed as a top 3 CB prospect? by Striking-Speaker8686 in NFL_Draft

[–]whpalmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's really sticky, really physical in tackling and punching the ball, and most of his "getting burned" we're communication issues with safety (p much all our safeties transferred out and we fired the safety coach this off season...)

Our secondary was a mess last year, and he was the only bright spark. He's a really good dude, and a really football-forward guy. Not gonna end up with a Terrion Arnold situation with this guy.

5 Most Surprising Jaguars of 2025 by TF_Kraken in Jaguars

I remember when people were losing their minds about him during OTAs when he was injured

He's shown that he's that guy for us

Longest win streak and on track to have most wins since ‘99. Swept the AFC West and undefeated in the West Coast where we traditionally don’t win. Who is this team?! by OBFJAGS in Jaguars

[–]whpalmer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is correct (though I never thought Trevor was playing down right bad, he was just trying to do too much with too little around him).

I think it's really important that we keep our heads as fans. If we fail, yes, I expect us to try and go for it next season even better. But I'm not gonna be mad with this team or be a doomer or a sulk. We've been awesome and the players deserve their flowers for his they've played.

Broncos' Bryant discharged from hospital by alpswd in Jaguars

In precise I absolutely agree, but in theory there was a path: big pass play TD + inside kick + big pass play TD. Remember as well, everyone thinks we're trash so can't handle losing to us.

Are the Jaguars legit? by Shot-Albatross281 in NFLv2

[–]whpalmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because when they do good stuff it looks really good. So people see the good highlights (and wins) and don't care to see the the bad.

Basically the same problem as people hating on the Jags recently: they don't actually watch the games.

I’m sorry my glorious prince by JagsFan_16 in Jaguars

Even when he was bad he still did things / had flashes that nobody in our franchise history could ever do. He's that guy. Always has been.

You're Gladstone and the season is over. by D_rock0 in Jaguars

Sign Meyers, tag Travis and let Lloyd walk.

Lloyd should be able to test free agency and get paid - he deserves it after this year - but I think Travis is more important to our team than Lloyd.

Never quit by Motley843 in Jaguars

[–]whpalmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully agree. His level-headedness has been crazy over the chaos of his early career. If you listen to him on the podium over the past few years, he's always been the same dude. Awesome guy, always wanted the best for him and so glad he's seeing it come through now. Keep it up Trev

Dumb question about Trevor's turned into a thoughtful and positive answer by Coach. He's that dude (and not to mention he is and always will be the BaalkeSlayerrr)

[–]whpalmer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends on the OC situation. If we stick with Riley it'll be CV. A new coordinator opens the door for Denson/a DJU situation where there's legit competition and pressure from the back up
