Someone is up late. And for that I thank you.
Me Like. Finished 2011 as #6 defense in the league and that was with main IR hits on defense. With everyone back wholesome there is no reason this defense will not finish leading 5. Get the offense on par and items are about to unfold.
Didn’t the jags say they weren’t gonna b active in totally free agency.its looks like they r placing together a competitive team.
Ross + quite excellent defense + new ownership + Tebow = 70% fewer tarps
Very good luck being irrelevent for next three years but hey gotta get paid and that I recognize.
This past season, he was far more than solid. Undoubtedly played lights-out. Not so in prior years, when you in no way knew which guy was gonna show up, but thanks for the memories, AR! Played a big component on the existing Championship team!
Amazing choose up! A lot more depth and playoff /superbowl experiance! If we can get a pass rusher and 1 to two more receivers then the draft will be self effortless pickens! I say go following Mark Anderson DE harder than they have and draft Copels to shore up the Dline on the end.Maybe if they get Tebow he can play DE.lmao….NOOOT!
Looks like we will be going DE or WR with the 7th choose if we keep at 7. I say trade back a couple of spots if attainable and snag 1.Micheal Floyd who will be a way greater pro and be in the league longer than Blackmon, not sold on him hes got to considerably of that neck roll attitude goin on.lol. 2. Either Copels or Ingram.They each are beast!
Jags will be competitive as soon as their qb circumstance sorts itself out… A good D will allow a young qb to unwind tho, hopefully by keeping his team in games and not feeling like he has to win a shootouts every week
