Jags resigning Alualu 2 year deal
Quote:Jags resigning Alualu 2 year deal


No surprise here.
Quote:I agree, we could get him for less then he would get if he didnt have the suspension 
 

I wonder if you pay him top tier money, if he'd be willing to put a clause in his contract that would waive any remaining guarantees if he gets convicted of any sort of DV, similar to Justin Blackmon's contract with substance abuse. It would be an interesting way to quell the negative reaction to signing him and make him put his money where is mouth is in terms of not messing up again.
Fascinating. Still putting my main priorities as RT and FS, but a solid pass rusher is good too.
Just kind of interesting to me that we're going hard after a guy like Hughes possibly, while also likely going with a guy in the draft that'll play a similar position, unless it's Fowler that we take and he plays the Otto while Hughes goes in at LEO. Although I guess same could be said if we sign Orakpo and get a guy like Gregory...

<p style="font-size:18px;">This is a surprise: #Falcons LB Sean Weatherspoon will hit the open market and is unlikely to be back in Atlanta. Was a priority.


 

Orakpo + Weatherspoon on prove it deals

if weatherspoon can stay healthy, a lot like a bunch of these guys, hes a beast.

He did have a ruptured achilles, Achilles. That's usually a kill shot to someone's career.
The Achilles injury to Hayward killed his career...
Weatherspoon players the same spot as Telvin Smith, we wont go after him unless, its late in FA and its a 1 year deal

If the money's right, the Alualu signing is a good move. Never was going to be a world beater, but he knows the system and gives us depth. Good start!

true but that was almost a decade ago. not sure about the recovery of such an injury at this point. 

 

in general though, he has had a bit of the injury bug. 
Quote:Hey, why would we sign Suh when Julius Thomas is available?
 

What are you talking about? We did not sign Suh.

Saw 3mil per thrown about but not from anyone I'd consider solid yet.
@RapSheet: The #Jaguars are paying DL Tyson Alualu $6M over two years with $4.25M fully guaranteed, source says.

Looks good to me, $3 million per season for a solid rotational DT/DE.
Alualu's gonna be a better player having a talent like Suh line up next to him

Agreed. Haven't been been very active on the board in a few months. However, just from the way you say things MissJagsFanatic you must have formerly been JagsWoman? I think it was. Some of the things you say make me facepalm so hard.

Quote:So the only really "big" names left at RT are Bulaga, Barksdale, and Parnell?
