@NC thank you for that list. I was speaking of 1st team all pro.

It's not a bad list.  The order of many could easily be debated.  I think you over-rated players who were really good for a short period of time and under-rated players who contributed over the long haul.  For example, you have Calais Campbell ranked in the very high 12th spot despite only being with the team 3 years with 1 of those seasons not being all that great.  Remove the 2017 season from his resume and I doubt you would have even remotely considered him for the top 25.  Brad Meester holds the team record for playing 14 seasons and 211 games and he didn't even make your list.  Is Bouye's 43 games worth more than Naeole's 87 games or Manuwai's 111 games?  I think interior offensive line got overlooked.  If it's contributions to the team (and not just pure talent), I think Marcedes Lewis is one who you also have to include.  He's actually ranked 3rd all time in receiving yards for the Jaguars and 2nd all time in receiving touchdowns.  Overall though, not bad.

Agreed. And if I am being honest there was no way I wanted 2 TE’s to make the top 25, so I went with who I thought was the best overall TE which is Kyle Brady.

Lewis was just as good in the run game. Brady has better individual games in my opinion and I believe he was the only TE in team history to have multiple 100 yard games. But you could debate that Lewis caught 10 TDs in 2007.

At the end, I just went with Brady because I can’t remember him dropping a sure fire TD like Lewis has. 

Chris Naeole could have easily been added instead of Bouye. At that spot I just felt like Bouye offered a Pro Bowl season during a playoff year and in my eyes he outplayed Jalen Ramsey in which Ramsey was voted All Pro. Bouye had a clutch play to keep our playoff hopes alive so absolutely you could go Chris Naeole at that spot.

And that brings me to Brad Meester. 209 games played which ranks the most of any player in team history. He only missed 15 games during that span. He played LG for 3 years and then moved to Center. He was a model of consistency for the franchise at not such a flashy position. However....the reason I didn’t add Meester to the list is because I look at guys like Frank Gore who has more rushing yards than Fred Taylor but in both of their Primes, I’m going Taylor Made. Now I know that’s a lose comparison but that is the reason why Meester was heavily considered but didn’t quite make it. I don’t think he made any pro bowls but he did play on a couple playoff teams and was apart of MJD and Taylor’s 2007 campaign. Like I said I agree Meester could absolutely be on the list but I just felt like not enough impact. Meester’s backup is in the lineup does anything change? Maybe or maybe not.

Yeah I have to agree with you here. We’re still over here talking about Jimmy Smith, McCardell, and Freddy T and MJD.

I’m hoping Myles Jack can make this list one day and of course Trevor Lawrence or a guy like James Robinson. 

Fournette got ran outta town, and then of course we went through QB hell for so many seasons. 

Most of the greats were from those early years and those JDR defense years.
