[quote name="iapetus" post="453001" timestamp="1426091934"]You don't know what a straw man is.




"A straw-man proposal is a brainstormed simple draft proposal intended to generate discussion of its disadvantages and to provoke the generation of new and better proposals. The term is considered American business jargon,[1] but it's also encountered in engineering office culture. Sometimes "straw dog" is used instead as form of political correctness.[2][3][4]"



Wrong. I think this definition precisely describes your approach. You propose that, given the generous amount of cap space we have, we can afford to miss on a few FA signings because if we hit a home run on a couple, it will all be worth it.

How elitist you are!

A recent list of the 100 best players in the NFL contained NO Jacksonville Jaguars. Hitting on a couple players in free agency does not solve the problem. Creating millions of dollars of " dead money" directly affects our ability to sign talent in the future. This management team does not have the luxury of time on its side. The future is now. We're entering the third year of rebuilding the roster.
