Quote:It is apparent that the Browns were going to sign him regardless. They took all but a few hours to do so. And 1 to 2 million more isn't guaranteeing the entire contract, not even close so even if they are posturing about that, it is obvious to anyone who doesn't have an agenda that the Browns would have signed him even if they did what you suggested. And that means in your eyes we would have failed. We couldn't win. It was a no win situation for you. This is why people question whether you are a Jag fan.

The part I think you are forgetting is this is Mack's contract not the Jags. This still has to be something we are comfortable with, not a "get him at all cost type of thing." After seeing the contract he has I'll gladly pass. Mack is a great player but I'm happy we aren't paying that bill. Centers are important but let's remember we are talking about a center. Meester in his prime was very good and would never have commanded such a high contract.
