I couldn't begin to tell you because I don't go too hard into the financial part of it. I bet bortles is atleast in the 5-6 year range 110+ mil.
You either die as a good poster, or live long enough to become the troll.

Quote:How often are playoff teams 'made' by free Agency?
 Not a lot but we do have a good core already so a few good signings during free agency could've really helped us. So the team wouldn't have been "made by free agency'.

@HaysCarlyon Not getting Vernon wouldn't be a disaster had #Jaguars landed Janoris Jenkins. Needed to get at least two dynamic defenders. No excuses.

Quote:I don't recall Jenkins or Smith even being mentioned by anyone but on this board, so I don't know how you can call that 'letting them get away'. 
Is CB not a position that everyone could agree we could use a upgrade on?

That fits with what I was saying why I didnt want him, he seemed like he would not like if Fowler got his snaps and just take the money. Where as Bruce Irvin wanted to be here and even followed Fowler on twitter. 

 

Glad we didnt over pay Vernon and I said that from day 1

@amanda1010xl Vernon makes it clear that NY is "sexier" than Jax. Money wasn't the issue in this deal. https://t.co/BTgBCgv7Z2

Quote:Marks

Fowler

Jackson

Gipson

Jack/Bosa/Ramsey

Ivory

 

 

Yes, I think those additions to the team make use a playoff team.

 
 

Depending how Marks returns, and how Fowler does his first year. Jackson should be proven. Haven't watched Gipson that much to know how much of a difference he will make. Again, rookies are questionable. And Ivory we will see, our offense was already good.  So we have 1 to 2 that are proven. Our main issue was pass rush, and we didn't do everything we could to try to improve it, with all the money for free agents that we had.

He's wrong but no matter what Dave does their will always be people that are upset. Some people just like to [BLEEP]. You ever notice it's usually the same people every time.

If you would've asked me before FA if I wanted Gipson or Jenkins, I would've said Gipson all day.

What does Hayes do besides retweet everyone else's opinions?

The Janoris Jenkins contract is almost as ridiculous as the Vernon contract. Especially for a guy who isn't all that and who I project will be placed in the league's substance abuse program within the next two years. This team got better. Much better. And we aren't done. If beat writers were GMs... imagine what Woody Paige would have the Broncos doing..

Caldwell is spending but he's not going to overspend and put this team's future at risk. Bortles, Smith, and the Allen's will all command big pay days. Bortles may potentially end up being the highest paid QB with the way these QB contracts are going now.

Someone needs to tell Hays Carlyon that nobody gives a damn about his "top 20 free agent rankings". This fat lard would be more useful giving us his top 20 sandwich rankings
