1 year 8 mil.
I wonder if we offered the same or more or if he just preferred the Falcons?
Would make sense considering they are a playoff team already and he wanted a 1 year "prove it" deal.
WELP!
At least you posted this in the Jaguars Forum.
he probably picked the team he feels he fits best. he visited a few teams and then picked the falcons
Poe always had an affinity for birds.
At least it's not the Colts
Would have been nice but it was a 1 year rental anyway.
I think that I was most interested on name value. I had read several times that his level of play has dropped off over the last couple years. It didn't stop me from hoping we would pick him up but it is easy to move on.

No. He picked the team that offered the most money.
He's a 2nd or even a 3rd tier free agent anyway. We didn't lose out on a big name player. Overall we still had a top 3 signing period with a perfect draft spot coming soon.
I'm gonna do like Jags02 and make a quick list of guys we could potentially walk away with.
Allen
Thomas
Fournette
Hooker
Mixon
Feeney
And then 3rd thru 7th.
We're gonna be primed for a solid run at the division with quality depth.
Jags had the highest offer on the table but he wanted to play for Dan Quinn.

Meh, not a huge loss. Would have been a nice rotation but not necessarily needed either
It would have been nice but we are stacked pretty good on defense anyways

That would be the Jags. He picked who he felt could win a SB next season
If the Jags start winning some games then they too can get the savings on free agents looking to go to the playoffs.
I don't see Atlanta going back to the Super Bowl anytime soon. They are about to get a new offense installed.
