Quote:Like I said, Alualu is an average player. No, he wasn't a difference maker, he was just a fort-holder. I'm defending him because he doesn't deserve to be called "useless," when he has clearly contributed. 

 

Yes, as the 10th pick, he should have performed much much better, but at the very least we can say he is an average player, no more and no less.

 

Apart from all that, Alualu's given his all to the Jags, and I'll always appreciate that.

 

 

I've already admitted to Grady Jackson being a better player than Alualu, just not in his days in Jacksonville. He was older and not as effective as he used to be. And the team let Jackson walk, making no attempt to re-sign him. If he were so great at the time, they would've held onto him or at least made an attempt to hold onto him.

Grady Jackson played well in his short stint here. He was signed for the sole purpose of filling in while Marcus Stroud was suspended. That was the only reason they signed him/ let him go.

 

Can we use the same example for Tyson? Can we say if Tyson isnt such a hamper to this team, he will be resigned? Grady Jackson is bad for the team not wanting to resign him, if Alualu isnt resigned ( which he wont be ) he must be just as bad.
