Highlights from Liam Coen's Jaguars rookie minicamp press conference

Safety Jalen Huskey has experience playing cornerback in college. Coen notes that with offenses getting heavier with their personnel groupings, having that versatility on defense is important. That length and versatility can also help on special teams.

Coen stressed to the veterans the importance of them setting the standard for the rookies upon their arrival.

"The difference a year makes," Coen said about working with the veterans during offseason programs. Rather than implementing new schemes, the Jaguars can now build off what was established last season.

"It's about our consensus," Coen said about taking Nate Boerkircher in the second round. "Character matters. Personal and football character matters and the mental, the learning, how much they can take in a short period of time to get on the grass and be able to play. I wouldn't say either of our offensive and defensive systems are "easy," and so we do value players that can dod different things and can mentally play the game fast," Coen said.

Coen noted Boerkircher's confidence and how he's locked in during meetings. "Very serious about his craft. Very serious about playing football and getting better. I think he fits right in."

Coen notes that when you have tight ends who can both block and impact the passing game, it allows the offense to play with heavier personnel but still have the versatility to attack defenses in a variety of ways, which puts more on the defenders' plates.

"Relatively quickly," Coen said when asked how quickly he begins diving into the Jaguars' Week 1 opponent once he knows who that is. "It just gives you a little bit of excitement, something to dive into."
