His talent wouldn’t be wasted in Jax. Sure, this is a running team but that’s because that is where the teams strength is at the moment. Last couple of years prior, the Jags were a passing team so the identity of passing vs running can be changed rather quickly with the right pieces. 

I could see OBJ getting as many targets in Jax as Hopkins does in Houston. Lol tall skinny blocker, he’s under 6 foot...

yes a couple years ago we were a passing team. Different Coach and OC its why Arob and Ahurns put up good numbers. We now have a Head Coach and OC who want to run the ball more then pass. Arob saw this and decided to take his talents elsewhere. Yes we could change but only after we get a Coach and OC that will run a more open passing offense. Its not about the talent of the players we have but what the philosophy of the Head Coach and OC which determines how our offense is run. The team is behind the coach and are making moves to fit this running attack more. Things like adding double tight end sets, getting the oline upgrade to run better, not going after a passing QB in fa but keeping the QB they know will not start throwing passes when they call runs. I think ppl just assume its BB fault we dont pass much but it is not. The coaches are the conservitive ones and that will not change as long as they are here.

The talent determines the approach (or how the team is run as you call it) towards the team. To claim the coaches won’t change their approach when presented with better talent because they are conservative is asinine. 

Things like adding TEs and upgrading oline is something that should’ve been done all along regardless of run vs pass approach so that’s a moot point.
