In any case, I've always maintained that free agency is fool's gold. Once in a blue moon do you manage to land a Calais Campbell. In most other cases, you're overpaying for somebody else's castoffs. Free agency does serve a purpose which is backfilling some spots with some potentially better (and in some cases younger) talent.

That's the way I see it.  Use free agency to get some reliable veterans to fill holes in your roster, so you can have maximum flexibility in the draft.

I think there were a few players that would fill holes but could also be in the long term plans due to their young age.

Samuel, Lawson, Henry.... these were just a few that didn’t sign massive contracts, are young and would be an immediate upgrade to the team.

Overall, day 2 was much better than day 1. I’m happy with what’s happened so far. I was talking with my brother in law (Ravens fan) and he loves what the Jags are doing because it’s going the Ravens route. Don’t go crazy on day 1 (like the Pats did) and find value the next few days. It’s definitely not like the Jags to do this and I understand why so many fans were freaking out 2 days ago.

Oh. And Trevor.
