The elite FA will get the big money plus get to choose a contender. We'll get stuck overpaying the 3rd tier FA like Jenkins and RRH again. I agree. Trevor needs some vets. Overpay for two wide receivers (Godwin and anyone with speed), another tight end to complement Arnold, and two veteran linemen to replace one or both tackles. Resign Norwell and resign Chark on a prove-it deal.

For starters, we need a GM who knows what the hell he is doing. No consistently good team counts on free agency to stay competitive. Drafted Waddle and signed Fuller. Fuller hasn't panned out (not sure whats up there) but you need to be aggressive in getting your young QB weapons.

The Jags did that with the D-line, but adding Matt Judon on the outside would've really helped. Fire Baalke for vetoing Cullen's request. Baalke seems to have an unwarranted ego the size of Texas, but I digress. When a team signs two, it increases the odds the group will be fixed. That should be the goal, and it makes the inevitable FA misses less glaring. So, for next offseason, I'd sign duplicate tackles, duplicate WRs, one more TE to go with Arnold, who's a recent signing.

How would you guys feel about bringing in Mike Williams from LAC? He's not a typical #1wr, but he can definitely catch the long ball & a great red zone target. He might be looking for BIG $$ though.

Personally, I'd be fine with it, but I highly doubt Williams would want to be part of this team. If I were him, I re-sign with the Chargers.
This team needs more draft picks. I don't know free agents that will want to be here, even with mad cash.

Money talks. But after watching Urbz throw players and coaches under the bus for 3 weeks now... It will indeed be tough to attract worthy candidates. The toxicity levels are on the rise and they were already high. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
In 2017, the jags were able to attract free agents. If you build it, they will come.

What is the common denominator for all these losing years? Khan ownership. What was the last good decision Khan made? The billboards? Hired the wrong people time after time. The fans did not want Baalke. Everyone could have seem this being a mess. And Meyer was a terrible hire. So was Bradley and Coughlin. What about Mularkey? Nobody thought that was a good decision at thr time - and it wasn’t! The fish smells at its head.

It is definitely exactly that. I guess the consensus is we’d go the retread route. A guy with free reign like that…. He isn’t stupid ya know.

Please no please don’t tell me the kid is going to get another shot at implementing his analytics garbage drafting. I swear I hate this team sometimes
