New Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Mike Mularkey mentioned that heโs been impressed with first-round pick WR Justin Blackmon so far.
โWhen he knows what heโs doing heโs very good,โ said Mularkey, per John Oehser of Jaguars.com, โand when he doesnโt, heโs lost.โ
Mularkey mentioned that Blackmon could ask more questions that he currently is.
โThe one thing I tell players the very first day, โIf youโre unclear of what to do when you come out of the huddle, please donโt go to the line of scrimmage without knowing what to do,โโโ Mularkey said.
Thereโs obviously a learning curve when it comes to making the transition from the college game to the NFL, so itโs hardly surprising to see him a little lost at this point during the offseason. The good news is that heโs showcased ability on the plays that heโs familiar with. Blackmonโs in a tough spot, as he essentially being asked to step in and produce from day one for a team that had of the worst offenses in the league last season.
