Jags finalizing a trade sending Julius Thomas for Albert
|
Quote:You are the first to say Brandon Albert would be an upgrade over Kelvin Beachum. Albert has been in the NFL 12 years; Julius Thomas only 6.No he isnt, I have said this as well. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Quote:Albert has played more games the last 2 years than JT. I thought you didn't want Albert because of his injury history but you want JT who misses more games than Albert? I think JT is still the most talented TE on our roster and is 3 years younger than Albert in a position than can play longer as well. There just seems to be a lot more upside keeping JT and Beachum than getting Albert. IMO. Hopefully I'm wrong
IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS
Quote:Now we need a TE. I'm not completely sold on either Koyak or Sterling. Any decent FA TE targets?I'm not 100% sold on the young guys either. However. They both u questionably outplayed Thomas and the giraffe at the end of the year. I don't see us signing another high priced FA TE.
Quote:I'm not crazy about the trade, but I'm glad the O-line at least is being made a priority. It opens a hole at TE if we want four on the roster. Now we have to either sign a FA or draft one because three TEs are obviously not enough.
Excellent draft for TE's and it's not exactly a premium position. Maybe Evan Engram in round 3? Not convinced Albert is better than Beachum at this stage of his career though.

Another thing about this trade is JT was a poor blocking TE. I wonder if Tom wants to keep a better blocking TE on the field.

You notice we haven't heard anything about cutting or trading Mercedes. I think that's partially out of favor for a long-term guy, partially because of his height, and mostly because he can still block. I think the run game is gonna look way different next year.

Awesome. Still have free agency to look forward to where we could see the interior positions upgraded.
"What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."
Quote:Marcedes Lewis is our blocking TE, right? We signed Julius Thomas knowing he is primarily a pass catcher.He is, but I doubt he will be 1st on the depth chart come start of the season. Who ever is our number 1 TE on the depth chart I believe he will be a better blocker than JT was.

Think we got fleeced. Albert is going to be 33. Are we getting a draft pick as well?
I think their could be picks involved, but we'll see. The part in the article where Albert says people will be surprised by the terms has me curious.

I like the move. Albert is a man up front and in the huddle. Thomas was so uninspiring. Just hope he stays healthy of course.
I'm down with Engram round 3!
Shock the world
Julius is a quitter, good riddance.
This is a TC kinda move and I like it.
Calling Deshawn Watson a future bust since 3/19/17. If I eat crow, I will keep this in here and proclaim JackCity a genius.
