Olivier Vernon should be the top priority.

This.
- Olivier Vernon

- Trumaine Johnson or Janoris Jenkins

- Reggie Nelson
I don't think half the people in this thread watched Mack play much this year. He wasn't much if any better than Wiz (Wiz actually had a really good pass block grade).

 

If you want to get Mack to opt out of his deal with the Browns you have to get him yet another raise on top of his all time high C salary. Is that what you want to for a C that was just average this year, is over 30, and had a major injury just last year? 

 

That's a whole lot to risk just to hope a guy can return back to his 28 yr old form two years off ACL surgery.

why does anyone want Bruce Irvin?

 

dude is a bust

Yeah. 22 sacks, 3 picks, 2 TDs, and 4 forced fumbles in 4 years is a "bust".

Plus you can almost bet he is going to his hometown Falcons.
Hawks fans don't even care if they lose him. The Otto just needs to be able to occasionally blitz and roll to the flats. In a nickel base defense is he really worth it for us?
My top 3 defensive targets who I think will be attainable are:

 

1. Tashaun Gipson- Need to fix free safety. Can't count on Ramsay being there. Weddle is older than I'd like.

2. Olivier Vernon- Would be good addition. Much better than Branch.

3. Bruce Irvin - Would be upgrade at Otto.

 

Jags then trade back with S.F. (q.b. desperation) if possible and get additional 3rd rounder.

 

1. Round 1: MacKenzie Alexander if Bosa is already taken (likely)

2. Round 2: Jason Spriggs (left tackle to push Luke Joeckel)

3. Round 3: Carl Nassib - Needs development, but major upside as pass rusher/Leo

                    Best available defensive tackle to plug the middle.
Why are people putting Wilkerson? Dude isn't leaving NY.


Gipson, Mack, Vernon.
1. Olivier Vernon

2. Tashaun Gipson

3. Lamar Miller

 

Starting to think we'd be better off drafting a center in the 3rd round.

Gipson, Mack, Vernon.


I know right.


Be like...I want Tom Brady, Antonio Brown and Gronk.
Imagine a back corps with Miller and Yeldon. Mmm, salivating thinking about it.

I'm betting Lamar Miller is going to want to start somewhere.
He'd start here and split reps with Yeldon.

I can't see Dave signing someone to start over Yeldon.
Quote:I didnt know that, thanks. I just assumed that with Justin Houston, Jamaal Charles, and Jeremy Maclin all getting paid big money that they would be closer to the cap. Unfortunate for us.
It's fine, Gipson is younger and just as good.
Quote:I can't see Dave signing someone to start over Yeldon.
If they're better then why not? Yeldon is still on rookie contract, not like he can get mad and leave anytime soon. He'd also still be getting plenty of reps.
Quote:My Top Three:

 

1. Alex Mack -C - Browns - The Jags can not open holes in the middle of their offensive line and it has hurt the run game

2. Mario Williams - DE - Bills - Rotate him with Odrick at the Big DE spot on passing downs

3. Janoris Jenkins - CB - Rams - Start him opposite Davon House

 

I think that Trumaine Johnson will be the CB that the Rams attempt to keep allowing Jenkins to test free agency. I see Janoris Jenkins being the equal of Vernon Hargreaves.

 

I would love for the Jags to also sign

 

Olivier Vernon - DE - Dolphins - Rotate him on 1 and 2 downs at the Leo spot and bring in Dante Fowler for 3rd down.
 

 

Interesting take on Jenkins. I like his stats too: 15 starts, 64 tackles, 15 PDs, 3 INTs, 1 FF

1. Trumaine Johnson 

2.Danny Trevathan

3. Oliver Vernon

 

Offensive

Matt Forte
