Who cares? I'd rather pull my own molars with a pair or dime-store pliers than watch him play LT for the Jags.
Joeckel wasn't a good starter, but he wouldn't be terrible. Same with Beachum. These are guys we're discussing as possible upgrades to our #3 LT, not guys we're looking to sign as a long-term starter. And Walker didn't stand out in a negative way Sunday, most of the problem was on the Parnell/Cann side.
Of course, it could be worse. Miami is down to Sam Young. Remember him?

We can roll with that but we have no back up after that
Has Linder ever played LT? If he has, I mean I guess at this point why not. Or are you just assuming he will be good at LT? Seems pretty wishful thinking to think you can just throw someone at a position who hasn't played it before.... but if he has.. I guess so.
It was said he can play every line positon, when they moved him to center. He was drafted as a gaurd. He is the same size as Cam Robinson. He is the best lineman we have.
I miss the old days where we lost a game and everyone wasn’t just absolutely freaking out. Of course that was back in like ‘12-15 but still you get what I mean. We game plan well we can block and beat anyone. Remember when Austin Paztor, a lacrosse player or field hockey guy, pancaked Watt like three times a few years back? There is still a lot of fight left for this season.
Bring back Guy Whimper.
We can solve the LT and TE holes with one signing.

Yeah I got to say I don't miss those days what so ever. I can weather some freaking out for winning seasons.

Hmm... Pretty sure idiots were still being idiotic on the internet in 2012-2015
The last time I can remember people not freaking out over a loss in football was before I was a member of any message boards, social media, or fantasy football teams.
Back then my friends and I would discuss the one or two games we saw that week. Maybe chuckle over a bad call or two... and really dig into some 17-14 slobber knockers.
Anywho.... that's the "old days" for me.
Circa.... 98-04
The board was WAYYYYY worse back then. We would fill the whole first page up with FIRE X threads after each game.

Yeah... the Gene Smith era was rough.
Those of us who were wearing teal glasses through most of it got it the worst.
The team sucked.
We defended the players and picks, the board trashed us, (at least we got a starter in the 3rd round)
and then staying the course netted us nothing lol

There would have been 7 "Fire Hackett" threads for me to merge on Sunday. LOL.
Luke Bowanko is still sitting at home.....and he was getting reps at LT when he was here. IJS....
As someone who can provide competition and possibly noticeably exceed expectations of most, former Lions T Corey Robinson comes to mind as a potential good fit for the Jaguars. Foot related injuries have contributed greatly to him not being able to take advantage of opportunities. But when relatively healthy and used at Tackle ( he struggled at Guard ) , Robinson did a solid all around job. His size/ skill set seems to be a good fit for the power game the Jaguars like to use.
Luke Joeckel is looking better and better.
Flowers is the absolute worst.
Part of me would like us to sign Flowers just to hear Boselli's meltdown. He's trashed this guy for a while.
Joker is better than Flowers...
