Quote:Do you think Paul Posluszny is worth $22M over the next 3 years? He is certainly not; if he were to hit FA today what team would pay him that kind of money? The Jaguars can find a much cheaper/effective option in the draft, Daryl Washington was a 2nd round pick, Bobby Wagner was a 2nd round pick, Donald Butler was a 3rd round pick, DeMario Davis was a 3rd round pick, the list goes on and on. There are only a handful of ILB's that are worth that kind of money, and if you're name isn’t Luke Kuechly, Patrick Willis, Sean Lee etc there's no reason to pay top tier linebacker money to a middle tier linebacker, it's not that difficult to comprehend.

 

It's also not difficult to understand that we can HONOR his contract AND bring in other LBs through the draft or FA.  Perhaps he will renegotiate, but I'm not about to throw a fit about him making too much when he has performed at a high level.  PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW HE HAS NOT PERFORMED AT A HIGH LEVEL.

 

You know, when guys holdout, everybody wants them to honor their contract.  Ok, why not the team honor their agreement and let the guy play?  He has earned it.  I know you don't care about what happens on the field, but if you watch the games he makes quite an impact.
