That's not a bad idea, except Telvin has a big contract, and that may discourage some teams.
The defense definitely misses Poz, who was a true MLB. The Myles Jack experiment was worth trying, because he would have been one of the fastest MLBs in the league, but we're just too light out there, especially Telvin, so moving Myles to WLB and getting a true MLB would definitely improve our run defense. Which leaves Telvin without a position, but he has a big contract, which might make him hard to trade.
On the other hand, our absolute offseason priority has to be QB, then WR and TE. And OL. So we might be going forward without making any big moves on defense, and Myles might still be the MLB in spite of our needs there.
He should have never cut weight.

I would suspect you'll see Church being released as well, and they'll either cut or rework the deal with Dareus.
We also drafted Parnell's replacement, so he's a potential cut.
Yeah.
I think Church and Parnell are done deals. Not really much justification to keep them.
Even if they aren't sure about Richardson at RT, it's time to move on from the aging Parnell. He did what he could for a few years here. Church is being outplayed by what looks like a very good third round pick.
Jackson was still up in the air until he began hitting the bench more often due to poor run defense. He's appears likely gone now.
If they can restructure Dareus along with those three cuts, their cap issues are very nearly solved for 2019.
I dont see Dareus restructuring, he is worth his 10 mill. At the end of next year his 10 mil goes up to 14.6, that's when we will try to restructure imo.
Church, Parnell and Jackson were all put on notice after the 2018 draft. If they're replacements showed any signs of promise, they were going to be cut. If Bryan continues to work his butt off, I think he could be a really good player. Just look at Chris Jones last night. He was taken in the 2nd round and with good coaching has blossomed.

I hear you, but they have the out clause in his contract coming up at the end of THIS season. Which puts the ball in the Jags court - since they could release him now and not owe him the remaining 48 mil on his deal. (just 4.7 dead cap)
Jags have at least
some leverage to offer him a new deal now.
I guess it comes down to whether another team is going to cough up 50 mil over the next three years to a 29 year-old DT with some sketchy off the field history. If that deal isn't out there for him, maybe the Jags can work something out.
