That's the biggest difference between 2007 team and the current roster.  Back then, the front office gave the fans and everybody else the impression that "We're one player away" and they drafted like it.  The reality was the best players on our roster were in the last days of their careers.  Mike Peterson, John Henderson, Paul Spicer, Rob Meier, David Garrard, Fred Taylor, ect.  We didn't know at the time, but they were all about to be seeing their last days in the league.

Now it's complete opposite.  Most of our best players are still under their first contract.  The only worry we should have is who we will lose to free agency in the future.

Kudos to the Jags for a terrific 2017 season, and here's to looking forward to even bigger things to come in 2018 and beyond.
