Not sure of the source but take these tweets for what it's worth:


Tweet from Chad Evans (@TheNBABreak) - A source in North Florida just gave me word the Jacksonville Jaguars and Malik Jackson are VERY close to a contract agreement. Wow.

Tweet from Chad Evans (@TheNBABreak) - Also Bruce Irvin is in advanced talks to join the Jaguars. I'm not a Jaguars fan at all, but that's a nice haul.

Tweet from Chad Evans (@TheNBABreak) - Bruce Irvin is still in talks with Atlanta and Seattle but seems to be leaning towards JAX. Malik is "all but done" according to source.

Lol I thought it was a female. All the griping and complaining made sense to me.

Keep an eye on the interior offensive linemen market. League sources say that's one of the <a class="bbc_url" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Jaguars?src=hash'><span style="color:rgb(117,167,186);">#Jaguars</a> key areas of interest in FA.

I like Jeff Allen about a billion times more than Icognito, personally.

No check mark next to his name....... For what its worth
@RapSheet Free agent CB Leodis McKelvin is visiting the #Eagles, source said. A deal could come quickly, though a visit to Dallas looms.

Same. He's my guy
We can't sign incognito, he might bully our nice players in the ice cream line!
Quote:I'm interested, why is that specifically? 
1.  Mario Williams is still young enough to be productive for a couple of years.

 

2.  Mario Williams has proven to be more productive than Vernon has been.  Vernon has never reached double digit sacks.  Williams has on several occasions.

 

3.  Mario Williams could give us more depth.  Because he is big enough to play that LDE in our scheme, it would enable Odrick to more readily move inside in some situations.  For that matter, Mario could move inside on some situations.

 

4.  Because of the kind of player he is, he could provide more balance to our D-Line.  He is a power player who can pass rush, which can make him a matchup problem with a RT, and would give us a viable pass rush threat opposite Fowler.  He is a more complete player than Vernon.

I think rolling around is more likely for a man that big.
Quote:Because Williams is older and has been known for a lack of hustle.
Question:  At what point does talent and productivity factor into player evaluations?

 

We've had any number of "try hard" guys on the team over the years, none of whom have provided any semblance of a pass rush.

 

You can take all of the Alualu's you want.  Give me a Mario Williams over them every time.

Great, now let's finish off Irvin and move on to Vernon or Jenoris Jenkins. or both.
