What Free Agency Will Reveal About the Jaguars


Quote:I'm going to reduce my position to its simplest form............


I am NOT against spending every available penny in free agency to acquire talent. We DON'T have the luxury of just throwing darts at the wall just BECAUSE WE HAVE A PILE Of MONEY. Some of you have suggested that we sign free agents willy-nilly simply because we have the money. I submit that's not wise, and it's what got us into the mess we find ourselves in. Bad signings affect us in the future. I'm all for good signings. O.K, you ask.......how do we differentiate between a good and bad signing? That's exactly the right question to ask.........and the answer is........I don't know. But that's why the brain squad of the Jaguars are paid the big bucks.........to evaluate talent and spend money concurrent with their perceived value to the team. So I fully support their efforts. Pay attention now........here it comes.....The Brain Squad has a short leash.......success for them is measured in months, not years. How can anyone disagree with that?
OK, so basically, you are concerned the free agent signings might not pan out, and there is little room for error. No problem. Got it. Personally, I like the signings, but we'll see. Still doesn't answer the question ... what is the alternative? By your own logic, given the time frame we had to do something or do another staff rebuild. Unless you have specific alternatives, all I get is .. you are worried. Buck up, happy camper, it will all be fine! Does that help?  :teehee:

<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?
