Quote:If Seattle offered what we offered why wouldn't he go there? Im sure we offered a little more prob 10 mill instead of 9 mill a year.
Could be structuring. Money up front, more guarantees vs incentives, etc
Who cares, we got him. He will add a ton to our offense and will instantly be the biggest weapon on that side of the ball. Great job Dave!
Quote:I wonder why there hasn't been any Demarco Murray rumors for most of the day. What do you guys think?
Rumors are he is gonna visit Jax before he agrees, still trying to get Jerry to pony up

Maybe Demarco wants to meet Blake and Julius tomorrow to get a feel for where this team is headed. Then he wants to call JB and see if he's coming back.
I can't imagine how much better our offense will be if we go on to add Demarco Murray on top of Julius. God let that happen.
But Dave sucks... We don't sign anyone good... We're being used.... What about Stephen Hill?!?
Am I doing this right?

Somebody had that there was a dinner they were having Tuesday and said it'll be an expensive dinner. If that gets done.....be signs.....one does not simply escape the "Gus Juice"
Murray is playing with the market, smart strategy to wait it out but sometimes it can bite you in the [BLEEP]. The point to that is he better choose a team before the Cowboys go elsewhere and cheaper as well as Caldwell changes his mind on Murray. If both teams lose hope he will play elsewhere but probably not 8 mill a year.

I'm worried Seattle is going to get Thomas. #becausejaguars!!!! We cheap!
We need to sign Murray and then hear that Blackmon is coming back. That would be incredible.
Last time a dinner was in place Mack decided that he would want to play in Jacksonville. Im starting to think this dinner idea and giving him some Gus juice while he eats and listens is a great way to lure Free Agents in lol

My thinking as well
Everytime I think we won't do anything or get anyone special, I thought the same but honestly when they officially sign someone it just gives me some relief and gets me pumped for the season. Mack almost did that for me last year this year its Thomas and other free agents. Im liking the direction the team is headed in, after the draft we might be able to pin point a win/loss prediction.
Pure speculation on my part but--I think Dave was putting all his attention on getting Thomas. Now that that seems set I would venture to guess we start hearing more about Murray or whoever else is on Dave's radar.

That just might break the message board.
7 mill for draft class right? So that means 38 million left over for 2-4 more players with 2 being Ron Parker and Greg Hardy or another FS.

Gus reads this.....turns around where Shad Khan is.....they both nod, understanding the thoughts of each other......Gus then turns the next way "Dave........sign everyone"
