00:00we welcome you back to sports grids 2025 draft special with the first blockbuster of night number
00:11one round number one the jacksonville jaguars straight up from the fifth overall spot to number
00:17two overall to select the reigning heisman winner out of colorado travis hunter so that first big
00:24move has happened hunter was a minus 2400 favorite just moments before our opening round
00:29began to go number two overall that ticket still cashes although it was the jags drafting hunter
00:36and not the cleveland browns as we originally thought as we were discussing the early portion
00:41of this opening round there was a thought that cleveland was going to play travis hunter or on
00:47the offensive side of the ball but blue and cap now that jacksonville has travis hunter in their
00:53organization what does that mean where he plays in the national football league obviously a new
00:58regime in jacksonville the youngest really head coach gm combination in the league liam cohen the
01:04head man on the sidelines for the jags now trevor lawrence is now several years into his career he
01:10dealt with an injury last season but they had an explosive wide receiver in brian thomas that they
01:15drafted a year ago out of lsu now they have travis hunter who obviously can go both ways do you add to
01:21the explosive side on offense with hunter and thomas being utilized by cohen and trevor lawrence mike let's
01:27unpack this first of all and you're right with brian thomas who i could tell you from talking to
01:31jaguars he was much better than they anticipated okay he's really smart he showed he could line up
01:35inside but he's really an outside receiver remember now they traded christian kirk in in division to
01:40the texans but he was their slot receiver gabe davis was hurt last season okay and he's on the
01:46contract he's on their team because his contract's fully guaranteed he's going to be there now if you look
01:51at their roster and believe it or not teams actually every team does have their own mock draft
01:56and we also did our team needs when other teams look at the jaguars they said very weak at corner
02:01it's a major need right where does travis hunter play what's his best position cornerback however
02:06they have a need for explosiveness opposite brian thomas it's not a sure thing he's playing receiver
02:13i just want to make you know obviously the jaguars james gladstone the 33 year old gm is going to have
02:18the answer to this obviously when they make a trade and by the way they've been talking to the
02:21they've been talking to the browns for a while they just got this consummated this got some buzz a
02:26couple hours ago no question about it but they know what they're going to do and i'm telling you
02:31this is the way it works with coaches will not be acceptable for him to go back to back like oh he's
02:35going to be receiver this week and the cornerback next week it doesn't work like that coaches have to
02:40know who they're going to have every week yeah ben i think cap nailed it there at the end which is that
02:44they had a plan for the trade they worked out the details all along but they have an even bigger
02:49plan for travis hunter
