Quote: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.
 OK, now I am really confused. You seem to be making the case for spending big in free agency and taking those gambles. For example, 3 of the top 50 free agents on several lists were signed by the Jaguars. If we do not have the luxury of time on our side, aren't these exactly the players we should be signing? As another poster asked, and I don't believe you answered, What's the alternative?

<p class="bbc_left">Or is it from Burke? I tried finding the source, and looked through some of his writings, no luck. Anybody with google-fu got a citation of the source?
