What Free Agency Will Reveal About the Jaguars

Quote:I didn't present a brainstormed draft proposal intended to generated discussion of its disadvantages. So... um... no, you don't understand what a straw man is. Note that definition says 'not to be confused with straw man argument' which you seem to be doing here. Not that you understand what that is either. Some pointers:<a class="bbc_url" href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man'>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man</a><a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/straw-man.html'>http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/straw-man.html</a><a class="bbc_url" href='https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/strawman'>https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/strawman</a>You don't understand what the word 'elitist' means either. I'm not sure it can be considered elitist to point out that since you don't seem to understand what I'm saying and you don't even seem to understand what you're saying, we're not likely to make much progress here. I do propose exactly that, because that's how free agency works. Every free agency pick up is a risk, no matter what Madden might have taught you to the contrary. So you have to expect to miss on a few. This applies whether you're at the bottom of the league or the top, and whether your GM is the best or the worst in the league.While we're introducing you to the correct definitions of logical fallacies:<a class="bbc_url" href='https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/appeal-to-authority'>https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/appeal-to-authority</a>There are Jaguars who should probably be on that list, and if the team were more successful, those players would be more widely recognised. There are also Jaguars who shouldn't be on that list, but would be if the team were more successful. That's the nature of such lists. Of course, the Jaguars are where they are right now partly because they don't have enough players who should be on the list on their own merits (and partly because of the players behind them, and partly for all sorts of other reasons that aren't relevant here).Really? Hitting on a couple of players in free agency could easily give the Jaguars their fair share of players in your all-important top-100 list.As for the rest of what you're saying, you're arguing against yourself with great enthusiasm. If this management team does not have the luxury of time on its side, why on earth would it care about dead money in the future?


DUHH, o.k.......so you flunked logic 101.... It's not a big deal. Besides, recess is over, time to get back to class.
