Caldwell talked about Free Agency the other day

Caldwell:

"It's going to be tough (talking about the market) but for us we can really start to narrow down our needs. In the past we were just trying to get guys come in and plug holes. Now we can focus on what our 4-5 areas of need are and be aggressive instead of "shoot, we have 16-18 needs, let's see who we can get"

 

Caldwell said the Jaguars would probably have 1-2 targets the first day of free agency in March.

I must admit that those 579 combined rushing and receiving yards over the past 2 seasons were sweet.

 

My apologies, sometimes I get carried away with looking at quantity and fail to evaluate the quality of those hard earned yards and the intangibles (leadership, community support) that he brought to the team and Jacksonville.  Blush

He's just going to fleece Cleveland and sign both Mack and Gipson, and it's going to be wonderful.

I think the reference to 4-5 areas of need was referenced at the macro level ...

 

1) Defensive Line

2) Defensive Secondary

3) Linebackers

4) Offensive Line

5) Other

LT, K should be addressed too. Maybe even ILB.


But it is true that all needs won't be addressed in one offseason. This Defense NEED Atleast Two offseasons Of Focus.

They can be average next year, that's good enough would be good enough with a different coach.
