Quote:He's a 1 yr wonder at 28. M. Jackson is a beast, is younger, and plays a huge position of need. Tashaun as well so I disagree.

Guess you just follow the mainstream media then...

In regards to jcoles report of the jags not being in the initial mix,the jags could very well be seeing where the market price goes, instead of setting the price themselves. They have been used to drive up prices before. Plus I would hope they get a face to face before putting in an offer.

Signing Josh Norman would have been the most impacting FA signing of Cauldwell's tenure with the Jags

now you are really confusing him

Dude, they're not signing him.

Quote:We have plenty of cap space to sign Norman and take care of our own.

I wouldn't be so sure. We have around 55 mil now. Norman would cost around 16 mil most likely. So let's say he have 40 left. Bortles will cost around 20 in 2 years. Hurns and Robinson around 12 or more each. That's 44 million right there. Then there's Linder and telvin. Yeah their all 2 years from now but the cap might go up like 10 mi over those years if we are lucky. Plus there's certain players we will let go that will open up more room but none of them that I can think of will be huge cap gains. You just have to think ahead.


There's obviously ways to structure contracts to limit cap hits and we already structured a lot of our FA contracts to be front loaded which will also help. Just gotta understand that Dave and the other front office people are figuring out the numbers and how much we will need.

I have been saying the last few years that this team really lacks "star power", and admit it or not, that is a big part of the lack of respect we get nationally.

 

Josh Norman = STAR POWER + Shut Down Corner.  

 

Please at least try, Dave.  If he wants lots of $$$, we got the most, and we need another CB.  

 

Couldn't ask for a better scenario, except Norman is a ego-maniac.   But who cares!

 

Then draft Jack or Bosa, and the defense is top 10 maybe.

4 hours ago you were happy with our starting CB trio. There is no reason to be upset now.

No.  I just follow the NFL EVERY yr and i know he isn't elite except for last yr.  He was the Panthers best corner and thats with a grade A LB core and decent pass rush.  Where has he been before 2015?  

 

I think i can see who follows players and stats/scheme fits and who follows media.  Where was this J. Norman love even before WK 1 2015?  I'll wait.

This is my problem with this team. This is why we can never get over that hump.

Tweet from Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) - Playing in California appeals to Josh Norman.


49ers have loads of cap room.


Just saying....

He's another big city, bright lights type of guy. Jacksonville will lose that battle every time.

Jags win 5 (actually 4) last year because of a terrible defense in a weak division with a weak schedule.


Signed Prince to a 1 year "prove it deal"


A vet shutdown corner becomes available with no off the field issues, cut due to $$$ only. Jags still have plenty to spend especially after failing to sign Vernon.


If DC doesn't even try to sign Norman I'd like a quality explanation

+1 for you sir.

Quote:Shocker.

It says 8-9 teams and he named 4 teams, how does that rules out the Jaguars?

I actually think it's okay that the Jags are mentioned as a team in the mix.  Sometimes Dave seems to like working behind the scenes.

I have a friend who's a Panther fan and I remember him saying that Norman was AWFUL before the 2015 season. He says "I have no idea how he got that good, that fast."

+2 for u sir.

Quote:Wow, just wow.

 

Please explain.  I have faith in our team and would rather pass now after the initial hype.  If he is elite 2 yrs str8 i'll happily say i'm wrong but this screams Nnamdi a few yrs back.  This MB was hype about him too. 

Quote:It says 8-9 teams and he named 4 teams, how does that rules out the Jaguars?

Some teams made him a offer and jags not among them according to @jasoncole

Quote:Crazy. Even if he doesn't sign with us, this is fun haha.

yup lol was getting tired of the draft talk and ready for the draft, since those big trades didnt include us, we were just going in circles at this point

 

This should make the rest of the week fun leading up to the draft
