He's got all the tools and will be paid the same regardless of if we keep him or cut him. If your concern is losing one of the young guys, just find some small / fictitious injury to throw them on IR until next year when Moncrief's contract is up and we still have the young WR we IR'd back on a cost controlled contract. This isn't that hard a concept. I like the youth in the receiving corps, but I think having a vet besides Marqise Lee in that receiving room has its benefits as Dede and Cole as 2nd year players aren't exactly what you'd call a "steady veteran presence"

According to Spotrac, only $4 mil is guaranteed. Do you have a link that proves them wrong?

I'm not sure what Spotrac you are looking at because according to the Spotrac I see:

GTD at Sign:$9,600,000
Total GTD:$9,600,000

"Donte Moncrief signed a 1 year, $9,600,000 contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, including a $4,000,000 signing bonus, $9,600,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $9,600,000. In 2018, Moncrief will earn a base salary of $5,600,000 and a signing bonus of $4,000,000, while carrying a cap hit of $9,600,000 and a dead cap value of $9,600,000."

One of the terms of his contract was that the Jags would also guarantee his base salary.

I'm not a big fan of the contract, but unless the Jags find a trade partner for him, it pretty much guarantees he will make the final roster.
