Kinda odd but would obviously welcome Slay.

What's odd about getting one of the best corners in the league?  Link?
Only downside to Slay is that he's 32, which honestly is older than I thought.

We would only need him for a year or 2 the we have to pay Campbell

Where are you seeing this? haven't seen anything outside of Fred Taylor/Campbell trying to recruit him on twitter.

Dilla (who’s pretty connected) has been hinting/talking about it.

Last I checked, he said the Ravens were the front runners for Slay but teams like the Seahawks and Jags are recruiting hard.

Slay is odd for me because he plays strictly on the outside and Williams isn’t very good in the slot and should also be outside.

 Slay usually covers the teams best WR, which most of the time is on the outside.  It doesn't mean he can't cover the slot lol.  It's been a few years since Dilla had a inside source. He has no clue what the Ravens and Seahawks are doing lol.  He seen a tweet from from Humphrey.

I immediately saw Campbell and Jaguars and thought we got Calais. I was bummed when I actually read the whole thing. Don't know how much he has left in the tank and I wouldn't want to sign him to a huge deal, but it would be fun to have Calais back in Jacksonville. You can never question the dude's heart.

I couldn't imagine anything better than Calais returning to Jacksonville to get his 100th sack on the way to winning his first Super Bowl! In my opinion, the classiest Jag ever who also happened to have the best season on defense of any Jaguar in history in 2017.

Good point!! We just need better pass rush to capitalize on two shut down corners!!
Teams were never in a bidding war. He never even got cut lol
Sheesh smh
I was hoping for Bradberry
Signing Slay would have been a bad signing. But I don't think the Jags were even interested, all fan hype.

News broke that the Eagles were going to cut Slay with a post June 1st designation. When this news broke, teams started calling his agent to discuss a new deal. Jags were one of them. However, during this time, the Eagles never actually cut him and they got cold feet.

Perhaps the Eagles decided they could trade him, instead of cutting him?
