<p class="">Seattle DE Michael Bennett will be testing the free agent market and will not be re-signing with the Seahawks before March 11th, per source.

<p class="">Expectation inside EverBank Field is that <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Jaguars&src=hash'>#<b>Jaguars</b></a> get contract done with QB Chad Henne before Saturday.

<p class="">Turns out Bryant left town this morning after having dinner last night with Gus, then deal was done. Might be back here Monday. <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Jaguars&src=hash'>#<b>Jaguars</b></a>

<p class="">Bryant played combined 70 snaps in last two games vs. SF, 25 vs. Saints in playoffs, 18 vs. Denver in Super Bowl. <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Jaguars&src=hash'>#<b>Jaguars</b></a>

<p class="">Shows <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Jaguars&src=hash'>#<b>Jaguars</b></a> being aggressive -- didn't want Bryant to leave town without a deal.

Thanks for the updates FGAJ

I know some of you guys hate Alfie but he was the only person I saw post that Bryant was visiting. He must be in with the cleaning crew or something.
I wonder who we go after next, will we go after a pass rusher Bennett or a low level guy, will we go after Byrd we do need a FS, I know we will go after a G and C early in FA. I expect a WR on a nice deal would love Jason Avant

Why do you want Jason Avant? A slow aging receiver that offers no upside, that's not the type of player I expect the Jags to target. I can see them targeting a guy like Hakeem Nicks on a 1 year prove it deal.

Jason Avant?  No thx

I want us to pick up a vet WR to go with our young guys we have plenty of young WRs plus we might draft one, Blackmon, Sanders, Mike Brown and a rookie WR, then Shorts, bringing in a proven vet to camp would make sense, you cant just have all young players on the roster, I would like Nicks but I dont see it happening 

Quote:The only way I'd want him back is if he takes a pay cut.

 

There's no way I'm paying him top dollar to stay here. I think he knows he won't do any better in free agency, which is why he'll be back in uniform next year.


Is this Shad? You keep referring to I only want him back with a pay cut, and I am not paying him top dollar.

If this isn't Shad, I'm sure he's thinking I would be happy if you bought some tickets. I' ll worry about the contracts.

I could definitely see them signing a vet at WR and the market is saturated with them. Definitely a buyer's market.

If Nicks was smart, he'd go to Carolina.

I would rather draft a WR. The draft is deep as well.

The link in the tweet is stuck behind a pay wall but after some finagling:

Quote:The Jaguars want to re-sign cornerback Will Blackmon, but NFL rules prevent them from doing so until Tuesday at the earliest.


Because Blackmon played under a minimum-salary, one-year veteran contract in 2013, his deal doesn’t expire until the start of the new league year (Tuesday) and thus, the rule states that he can’t sign a new deal until then.

Oh, ok thx.  I didnt know that was a link to it.

Do both. Right now they only have Shorts, Sanders and Mike Brown.

They could add sammy watkins and sign bennet.  That would kill 2 birds with one stone.  Just saying
