Mehh, hopefully Yann and his camp will come back to reality and find a deal with another team and in return the Jags get proper compensation. If not, I'd still play Chaisson. Yann rides the pine. Hell I'd give Chaisson 91 if he wanted it, just to say, we've moved on guy.

I think the ideal realistic scenario is for someone like Caldwell or Tony Khan to sit down with Ngakoue and ask him, if it's not about money, what is it? Ngakoue has claimed it was never about the money. So what is it?  What did we do that caused this rift? How can we apologize? How can we do better in the future? It's apparent that your salary demands are keeping you from being traded, so is there a face-saving compromise that we can adopt that will allow us to go forward happily on the same team?

If it's not about money, then there has to be something we can do to make him feel better about things.

If it is about money, then the last couple of months should persuade him that his salary demands are too high for the market.

The current path they are on is surely going to be painful for both sides. Both sides have to see this.

They have to sit down and talk. There's still a chance they can work things out.

To me it's too late. The Chaisson pick is the replacement. Everything should be invested into getting him on the field. To me Dave and Doug said we've moved on even though we have this issue hanging around. So eventually Yann and his camp are going to have to lower their price IF he wants to find another team. Nobody is going to pay what they are asking, otherwise, he'd be gone already.
