He played with blake and thinks highly of him base on his 1010xl interview.
I hope we sign Zeitler, Bouye, and Bennett! If we cut Skuta and cut/trade Marks, we will free up another 8.75 Million of cap space with only 200K of dead money. This created cap space pays for Bennett alone. Based off of current depth, Id rather have Martellus Bennett than Marks and Skuta.

Yup.


And trains or something with Colvin. They're buddies. Bouye's interview on 1010 explains it.

Don't forget we can also cut miller and Marcedes Lewis and save another 8 million.

Calais Campbell will average $14MM per season on his new #Jaguars deal, per @JasonLaCanfora
No way he was going to turn that down. Not to mention the Fins paid 9 mill for Branch, Campbell is easily 5 mill better than him.

Cool with me. Time to spend that money.
Quote:True but they may be the one team ppl won't choose over us if the money is similar
 

  I read or heard last night someone mentioned that last year,  the Browns didn't want to spend money to keep FAs,  this year they can't give their money away.

Allbright called it last night. Hopefully he's right on the Bouye situation!
Our number one priority should be Zeitler, not Bouye.

I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you on that.

 

There has been zero talk about guards right now though..... For anyone.

Yup, we could still be the number one option for both. Every report (few and far between) on Zeitler says we're in the mix.
Quote:I don't want Bennett for the simple reason is I think he can cause friction if things ain't going smoothly
 

  From my point of view,   Calais Campbell and Martellus Bennett are on the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of people I would want having anything to do with.  The Jaguars landed a tremendous player,  leader, and person in Calais Campbell.   As for Bennett,  I wouldn't even wish him on the teams I root against the most.   
I'm gonna be praying we somehow end the day with Zeitler in a Jags' uniform. That would make me feel so much better about the upcoming draft.

My fear is if we land Bouye then we wont sign Zeitler
Quote:Mike Glennon to the Bears for 14.5 million a year. Unbelievable.
 

It's less than i thought Mike Glennon would end up with when considering the QB situations of a few teams and the available options.
LagaryBlunt intrigues me.  Bennett.  Ryan Logan. Sheard. I like all the Pats friggin free agentz, BRO. Who else thy got? (Blount really does intrigue me though)

Quote:My fear is if we land Bouye then we wont sign Zeitler
Why is that your fear? The Jags have so much money. From everything I've hard, the Jags are a top option for Bouye. And since no one has heard anything about any guard, you shouldn't be scared.

 

Landing Campbell and Church is a great start. Bouye or Zeitler would be stellar. If they don't land Zeitler, you can be sure they have a backup plan.
There's still some options at G though even if we do miss out on Zeitler.
