Quote:Poz is good.  He is a solid player like James Farrior was with the Steelers.   The problem is that we never surrounded him with any playmakers around him so he had to be that guy. 

 

Is he overpaid?  who knows and who cares.  Gene Freaking Smith got us so brainwashed about trying to get great deals and anything over $6m was a deal breaker that we ended up with a bunch of below average role players on this team.

 

OOPs .... disregard the above statements ..... Poz is Penn State, he sucks !!

 

Completely agree with this, and the good news is that the team is doing everything they can to rectify that issue.

 

On being overpaid, again, I completely agree.  Who cares?  It's as if these people who use that as their great argument against him are actually stroking the game checks.  This team isn't in cap trouble, and was more than capable of affording his contract. 

 

The thing I find curious about the article is that it says they may have done this extension to create cap space in 2015.  Do these reporters actually pay attention to the cap health of teams? 

 

I think they did this deal to give him an opportunity to finish his career with the Jaguars.  He's a popular guy with the fans (except for the bean counting fans apparently), he's still an effective asset on the field, and he's a leader on the roster.
