By renewing our own players, you could say that we have dipped into FA...we just chose the devils we knew.

But sure, that one guy is gonna make us contenders, right?

We are already contenders.  He's just a proven vet that could be had for cheap at a position of need.  He could be a stop gap just in case a nickle corner isn't at the top of our board when we pick and we won't have to reach for one.

Comes down to price. It's been floated around that Jenkins is still not in the clear. He's a cap saving cut post June 1st. You could use that cut to supplement for the rookie class that's coming in next month I believe but then you have to hope Wingard can start and that the front four is much improved pass rush wise.

The only issue is what Cleatwood and I were talking about earlier. If Slay is strictly an outside corner, is he THAT much of an upgrade over Williams to justify the cost of having him not play full time since he struggles at nickel as well

This probably is at or near the top of the list of questions of whether the Jaguars should make a serious attempt to Darius Slay. 

While Slay is still amongst the NFL best CBs and has great intangibles, he probably will get a contract offer that would stretch the Jaguars salary cap as early as the 2024 season. With Trevor Lawrence probably getting a new contract in 2024, the cost to sign Slay more likely than not would exceed the overall benefit.

Man, I really liked Key. I hate to see him go.

He'd be an upgrade over Williams on the outside but then we can't move Williams back inside because he's not good there and then we'd have money tied up in a player who doesn't have a spot to fit. If Slay can play inside, that would be a nice addition.
Slay is strictly an outside corner. Although he's a very good player, he will cost too much and he doesn't really help the team this year.

A lot of times he follows the teams best WR regardless of where the WR lines up, the slot as well

Slay can play the slot WR

You could make an argument for Slay being the best corner in the league right now. He shut down JJ last year

Would be amazing to land Slay. Would take some creative book keeping.

We probably couldn't afford him. The market seems crazy. Taven Bryan gets 4.5 million from the Colts...

Banana I'm getting hardcore Greg Jennings vibes from Darius Slay's twitter right now lol. Anyone else remember when that man was a free agent and every day he'd post something about a team he visited? He said something about the pools in the stadium and everyone thought he was coming here lol.

Bruce Irvin used us to get his price up years ago when he left Seattle.  He followed everything Jags and then signed with another team.  Luckily he didn't come year that here though because he sucked.

Need to have some of these guys for training camp and compete for 2nd/3rd string opportunities.

Apparently Jags are in a bidding war with other teams for Slay.

Kinda odd but would obviously welcome Slay.
