Quote:As I tried to say ad nauseum, there are going to be a dozen teams that think they are all signing McCourty, and they all have a boatload of cap space and are probably perceived as closer to contention and/or a more attractive market. Such as this from the Eagles beat writer (who suddenly have almost 60 mil in cap space):

<p style="font-size:26px;">I fully expect the #Eagles to make a serious run at Devin McCourty if he hits the free agency. Like, sign him within minutes run.

If any team is perceived as more likely than the Jaguars to sign Devin McCourty, I would like to know what their free safety situation is. Do they just see McCourty as better than their own or do they really not have a good free safety? No team should sign him "just because" when there are bigger holes to fill. Do the Eagles need a huge upgrade at the free safety position?
