Quote:He's been his normal self ever since. An above average TE with good blocking skills.

Very strongly disagree with the above average part. Marcedes is a great blocker and good locker room guy, but he has crappy agility and has developed stone hands for some reason since his breakout year.


Looking at his stats, I don't see how you could label him anything other than average. Yes, in 2010 he had 700 yards and 10 TDs, but he's only gone over 500 yards twice out of his 8 other seasons (518 and 540 in 09 and 12). He's never scored more than 4 TDs since, and he only did that twice.


Of 9 seasons played, M89 has failed to score more than 2TDs or register 500 yards receiving in 6 of those years.


IMO he's a great blocker but below average pass catcher, which was supposed to be his strength coming out of college. I'm not sure that's worth 7 million per year.


Charles Clay had 760 yards receiving in his third year in the NFL, more than M89 has ever had in his career. THAT is the guy I hope the Jags sign and pay decent money to.
