Way over paid, we got Marvin Jones for 2 years 14 mil who's just as good lol

Even with the Jaguars entering the FA period with the most salary cap space, I'm of the opinion that for the Jaguars situation, the investment in Marvin Jones under the terms he signed for is a better decision than if the Jaguars would have signed Kenny Golladay at even close to what the Giants gave him.  

Marvin Jones is a much more experienced player than Kenny Golladay and hence far better equipped to aid Trevor Lawrence with mental components of playing QB in the NFL.  The fact that the Jaguars agreed to terms with Marvin Jones only hours after the legal tampering period began speaks volumes of the overall value that OC Darrell Bevell believes Jones will bring to Jacksonville. 

Even if age / wear and tear catch up to Jones in 2021 or 2022,  I think the signing will end up bring a good decision because priority # 1 for the Jags in this time frame should be the development of Trevor Lawrence.  Because Bevell coached Jones for 2 seasons with the Lions,  he knows what he can expect from Jones day in, day out.
