Yup… and they had to mention the “miss” on keeping Ridley. Almost like they’ve , all of a sudden, talked themselves into the idea that Ridley is this all world WR who’s worth every cent of the contract he got at 30 years old.
Top 3 WRs run best vertical? Clear and obvious sign someone didn't watch the Jags.Gabe is the only vertical threat the Jags have...Evan and Kirk feasted on shorter, crossers, and intermediate routes. One of the biggest issues the Jags EVEN with Ridley last season is how horizontal they were offensively. Davis and and Thomas opens things up for Evan, Kirk, and ETN to catch and go
WTH is wrong with you Chris! Why would we pay Ridley that contract and risk signing back Allen and then we got Davis opposite Kirk ! This is a great pick and we got more draft capital! Chris the man had the most tds in college football!! It gets old seeing people talking football and being paid but sound like an idiot!
These guys just proved they have no clue what they are talking about and did zero research on the Jags. Lawrence was top 5 throwing deep and did so offten. He tied or set a record for 40+ yard throws in a single game last year.
I think people forget Lawrence looked most comfortable in college when he had TeeHig and Ross, two big WR to take away some of his accuracy issues ever since then he’s had small receivers never big targets so maybe there trying to get back to that plus jags really struggled red zone last year so a couple big targets should help not to forget Parker Washington also probably getting more play time underneath
These guys just talked crap about our pick the whole time , he was 25 on they’re big board but we got him at 23 with more draft capital, and they still complain . We got 2 big targets now that can stretch the field and now all of a sudden that’s a bad thing.
This whole argument is flawed. Gabe Davis is not a vertical guy, he’s a possession receiver. And always has been. Brian Thomas is only scratching the surface of what he can be. To start out he’ll be a vert guy for sure. His speed is for real. I can he see him developing into a great weapon for Jacksonville.
This pick makes complete sense. They have a lot of depth and reliable, move the sticks receivers. But they lack vertical threats. With so much depth and reliability around him, Thomas will get a chance to do what he does best while developing his weaknesses through time. Better that, than paying a 30 year old receiver who put up only solid numbers as the WR1 last year.
I'm not the biggest fan of BTJ, but these guys "analyze" the pick like he should've been taken in the 4th round. I can see why the video has so little views.
Interesting how these dudes are dogging a Receiver from LSU before him playing a down. He had 17 Touchdowns. Give this dude a chance along with the Super Bowl winning head coach to figure it out. Oh and Ridley couldnt beat press but let’s pay him 90 million
2:50 Dude must've forgot that we have Christian Kirk, ETN, and Evan Engram on the roster too. Definitely NOT just a vertical offense. That was the one thing we were missing last year. Just an uninformed dude with a strong opinion.
Such a stupid take..."Gabe Davis and Brian Thomas fulfill the same role...they are the exact same thing"...ok so now having 2 guys that can stretch the field is a negative? Put both on field at same time... and see if D has 2 fast guys to stay with them...that puts ALOT of pressure on the D. These guys are just Haters...NFL games usually very close and this guy just might be a difference maker/TD guy.
Exactly, not only do you have to defend both of these speedsters, you can have Engram and Kirk running routes underneath with Travis in the backfield. That's a tough monster to stop and not many teams will be able to handle it. Now that there is that big deep threat, it also opens up running lanes for Travis. This pick is an absolute homerun!! The Jaguars offense lacked a true deep threat last year and now we have 2.
Why did you let a 30 year old who has mental health problems (left football in atl for it) followed by getting kicked out nfl. Comes back and didn’t take the time to learn the playbook. Ya Chris why would they let him go for a rookie guy in BTJ who btw is faster than Calvin midley.
Watch how they say the chiefs picking Xavier worthy is a great pick even though they have Hollywood brown which they’re basically the same player they have the same playing style but bc it’s the jags it’s a confusing pick
The way he’s says he a big fast receiver with incredible traits Iike that’s just average wtf …dude a dawg everytime I watch lsu play he was doing something special
PFF = 🤡 Why did we let Ridley walk? Is he a $100m receiver at 30+ yo The Jags struggled because they couldn't protect the QB and stop the run in the fall. I hope you guys aren't being paid for these takes 😂😂😂😂
That is all we need is a one trick pony. we needed someone fast we have everyone else. He is going to open up the field. What is wrong with these people. He made Nabers look good.
lol the spelling on the video thumbnail is Brain...but its pretty obvious that these guys don't watch the Jags. They have plenty of underneath threats in Kirk, Engram and ETN, and the big issue was the lack of a vertical threat. They let Ridley walk because the contract was too much. They like thrashing the pick, and will fit that narrative by ignoring all the positives of the pick.
Take the speed out, lmao. Ppl saying Keon coleman is slow if only he had the speed. Brian Thomas jr. Has the size the speed double moves on his route running. What else can you ask?
Haters dude is a baller… his tape says other wise there were a lot of routes that he won flat out by the route he ran not scheme you idiots!! I mean do you even watch the tape
The guy in the white shirt needs to be fired. Gabe Davis ran a 40 in the 4.5s, BTJ ran a low 4.3. They both get YAC but you get YAC in different ways. Davis gets his through crisp route running and power/strength, BTJ gets his through speed. Im a novice and I know this.
Pff are professional jaguars haters
I love watching this clip now
Why let Calivn Ridley walk really Chris? Should the Jaguars have paid him 96 million?
exactly..I liked Ridley...but nowhere near THAT much...ATL might regret that move...

@@msimmons213 yes meant them thanks haha
He might be a 1 trick pony but the Jags don't have that 1 trick. They filled a need
His one trick is running faster than everyone else and scoring tds
Pff just trashes the jags every time
Anytime they get a chance too… we could have traded up to get Marvin Harrison Jr. and they would have complained about it!
Yup… and they had to mention the “miss” on keeping Ridley. Almost like they’ve , all of a sudden, talked themselves into the idea that Ridley is this all world WR who’s worth every cent of the contract he got at 30 years old.
We coulda drafted Jesus Christ and they would say it’s a reach
I disagree. They love Trevor Lawrence. They’ve been down on Thomas Jr since the beginning of this process
😂😂😂@@blakebucenec7517
DK Metcalf got the same evaluation. One trick pony, freaky athlete, etc.
Pff=🤡. Always disrespectful to the jags.

Brian Thomas is more Tee Higgins than he is Gabe Davis
Bt is much faster than tee
YES so right!!! We should have paid Ridley $96M instead of getting a faster bigger younger Ridley on a rookie contract! So dumb!!

Bingo🎯 You hit the nail right on the head. PFF has always hated on the Jags and it's quite obvious. Bunch of idiots.

They mad he went to the jags 😂😂😂

He goes to another team and you're saying it's an incredible pick up, so biased and pretty unprofessional IMO

PFF FN haters! GO JAGS DUUUUUUVALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL VS ALL YALL
Kind of works as ridley replacement for downfield threat no?
Ridley wasn't a threat lol
@rilesw7576 what he was asked to do route wise. Idc what he caught, im saying he seemed to be the one getting those shots.
2 vertical threats = Kirk and Engram All-Pro seasons
Now three
Soooo do they not like the dude, or do they just not like him on the jags lol?
This was so weird to watch. PFF literally has a first round grade on the guy, lol
@@trevoraugustus2249 I saw that too lol. His numbers looked great, but pretty much bashed him/ the jags when analyzing. It was confusing.
We upgraded at WR and saved money, fuck the haters
Watch how they say the chiefs picking Xavier worthy is a great pick even though they have Hollywood brown which they’re basically the same player they have the same playing style but bc it’s the jags it’s a confusing pick
An absolute joke of analysis right here... What did BTJ do to y'all lol
😂😂😂😂the way dude talking bout him is like he’s aggravated 0:43
I guess they don’t think wrs should be big and fast
They said the same about Metcalf
The way he’s says he a big fast receiver with incredible traits Iike that’s just average wtf …dude a dawg everytime I watch lsu play he was doing something special
Defenses will be having to cover Evan engram and Etienne
Kirk too
That's like having 5 receivers on the field. Etienne can do both.
PFF = 🤡 Why did we let Ridley walk? Is he a $100m receiver at 30+ yo
The Jags struggled because they couldn't protect the QB and stop the run in the fall. I hope you guys aren't being paid for these takes 😂😂😂😂
I thought I was gonna have to get on em, but yall already covered it in the comments 😂😂😂
Yeah I don't care for Chris to much. Maybe BTJ made Nabers look good.
One trick pony? Have they even watched him?
✅
Great pick. Thomas has unlimited potential. He is a more explosive Marv if he learns technique.
Dudes are clowns
The fumbling of Calvin Ridley? You mean another team massively overpaying him? What is this clown show lol
Criticize criticize
That is all we need is a one trick pony. we needed someone fast we have everyone else. He is going to open up the field. What is wrong with these people. He made Nabers look good.
Traits guy with high ceiling that they feel they could mold similar to how Travon Walker was thought of for his position.
3:14 looking for just as talented at half the cost?

Y’all just hate the jags. With Davis and Thomas outside. And KIRK AND ENGRAM inside. That is dangerous 😤🐆🐆🐆 go jags
Chris can’t even pronounce Adonai Mitchell’s name right, but all on his jock 😂
He was 25th on their big board so let’s trash the pick at 23. Nice work
Haters dude is a baller… his tape says other wise there were a lot of routes that he won flat out by the route he ran not scheme you idiots!! I mean do you even watch the tape
why does PFF hate on the jags every chance they get? like they all have to be titans fans at this point or something
This is the most talented receiver the jags have drafted since justin blackmon. And he was a bust. Jag fans should be excited
Jags let Calvin walk because he isn't worth 100 million dollars are you out of your fuckin mind??
Nerds on football baby!!
Generational hate that we’re watching 🤣
These guys suck
You guys have no idea what you're talking about!
They wouldve trashed jax if theyd taken AD Mitchell or Mconkey there too Chris lol
Pff the worst, no clue
Adonai Mitchell is significantly better
cap
I think Brian Thomas was the 4th best WR in the class.
Worthy better than Mitchell according to the nfl
This guys everywhere glorifying Mitchell 😂😂
Adonai Mitchell is better
If he was better he wouldn't have fell to the 2nd round. Shut up already
