Jaguars Depth Chart: Some Interesting Notes

by Alfie Crow on Sep 5, 2011 12:02 PM EDT in Jacksonville Jaguars News

The Jacksonville Jaguars official site has a new updated depth chart. There's no real surprises on it, but there are some interesting notes. Remember last week when everyone was making a big deal about Blaine Gabbert being the third quarterback? Well, on the depth chart he's listed as the second quarterback, with Luke McCown as the third. Does that mean if David Garrard gets hurt on Sunday, Gabbert will come in the game in relief? Probably not. Early in the season, Jack Del Rio is more likely to go with the veteran McCown in spot duty when necessary.

Also of interest is that undrafted rookie offensive lineman Cameron Bradfield is listed as the back up left tackle. I don't recall much of Bradfield during the preseason, which is usually a good thing for a rookie lineman. Jason Spitz is also listed as the primary back up for both left and right guard with John Estes as the back up center.

At the runningback position with Rashad Jennings hitting injured reserve, Montell Owens is listed as the third runningback with Brock Bolen as the second fullback.

Newly acquired safety Dwight Lowery is listed as the primary back up at strong safety, with rookie Chris Prosinski as the primary free safety.

Deji Karim and Jamar Newsome are listed as the kick returners with rookie Cecil Shorts III as the primary punt returner.

Prosinski is the back up

Landry is the starting FS

Chris is his backup. I’m calling it now, the safety positions are not set, these will all change.

I think

everyone agrees with that. If they don’t, they should.

FS: Lowery, Prosinski, Issac
SS: Landry, Greene

Long term

I think our best situation would be Issac at FS with Prosinski at SS. Both have great speed and physicality. Landry isn’t great at any one thing, other than hitting hard, because he isn’t super good in coverage or even a great tackler; but he makes plays. Surprisingly for someone of his build I think he is better in coverage because of the mental side of his game.

For the future they probably are the starters at FS and SS. I just wonder is Prosinski might be better at FS since that’s what he played at Wyoming and he honestly might be better in coverage than Issac who I think is a better hitter even if he doesn’t have the prototypical size for a SS.

Truth be told

they are pretty interchangable. And despite the numbers, I think Rod plays faster.

Game still competitive = McCown as backup

Game not competitive = might as well bring in Gabbert

+1

McCown goes in if Garrard goes down, but in garbage time, put gabbert in.

i read it from tania i think...

that jags will use him on passing downs, because he’s good in coverage, so greene can play up in the box on run downs, and on passing downs coleman can ballhawk. And there is a big surprise on here, Roth is playing backup for Kampman, I thought he was starting across.

We need

the pass rush, and Mincey gives us the better QB pressure.

by Ewdtrey on Sep 5, 2011 2:06 PM EDT up reply actions

Absolutely.

I like Mincey, he seems to bust his tail on every play.

Bradfield was handling cats with ease...

I am glad the coaches saw what I saw. He can also play RT.

I agree

he makes it look so easy. Good sign. Plays a lot bigger than he is.

by Ewdtrey on Sep 5, 2011 2:07 PM EDT up reply actions

He makes me

wanna go back and watch him play some more. He can’t be as good as he appeared. lol

by Ewdtrey on Sep 5, 2011 2:11 PM EDT up reply actions

Almost too good to be true right?

Really just blocking excellent with no real effort just like u said.

maybe he can give Monroe some technical pointers..lol

by chrisltr22c on Sep 5, 2011 6:03 PM EDT up reply actions

Bradfield can be a good swing tackle for us.

He’s a solid blocker thus far, and hes fast for a lineman, he runs a 4.81 at 301 lbs.

I wish there were

Highlights of him , I saw some on youtube, atheltic guy, very quick but light, how would yall rate his performance in the preseason, I see him much

by amujic32 on Sep 5, 2011 2:18 PM EDT via mobile reply actions

Didnt

He caught my eye in the Buffalo game, so I can only grade the last two games but...

he gets an A, hands down. I have all 4 preseason games on DVR so I will go back and look.

Would have really liked him to get work with the 1's though.

Another thing I liked was Robert Quinn jumped offsides and Bradfield stayed still because he knew the snap count. He went ahead and moved anyways because he knew we would draw the penalty. He is smart too.

thats funny

because when i was in pop warner, they told us to never move until the right snap count. So one game, a DT jumps off sides(yes I was on O-Line, because of that douchebag-coach, i was good at DL, but because I was a better blocker then most of our team; which I wasn’t good our O-Line just sucked) and he knocks me on the ground, and we get a penatly, and my teamates are laughin at me saying i got knocked on my ass, and im soft, etc. and my dad got mad at me too. But I just did what I was told to do, but anyway, thats doesn’t necessarily make him smart, I think every lineman in the NFL will react to it.
