Quote:After thinking about this more and as much as I want Mack, do y'all think we will pay him that much to prevent Cleveland from matching? I think they are bluffing the part saying they'll match anything; just to keep offers from being made. But do we really want to spend that much? I want to get him badly, but now thinking on it a day or so, do we really need to pay that much? I have a feeling Caldwell is thinking on how to do it, but I don't think they will submit an offer because of how much they would have to pay him. Mack is fine with it, but I don't see us doing it in the end.

 

GO JAGS!

Yes Caldwell should go all in on Mack for 2 reasons: First, for the people who say we shouldn't overpay for him who is on this current roster who's contract is coming up worth keeping at this point? Most of our players are already locked up or on their rookie deals which aren't expiring anytime soon. Lastly and the most important point is this Caldwell is going to draft his young qb and he want to protect his most important investment by putting him in the best position to succeed in the NFL.Therefore, if that means overpaying for a couple of lineman in free agency because if they do their jobs right and his qb flourished in the NFL it would be all worth it. Let me ask everyone this so if you brought a brand new car is you clear need insurance are you going to overpay for a top notch insurance but with full coverage benefits like State Farm or Allstate or go to a cut rate insurance like Florida No Fault and settle for P.I.P and hope nothing happen to your brand new car? Now answer this question about your own situation and now put yourself in Caldwell shoes.
