^This.

Really, are people here choosing Jackson? What homers!

Jackson had a great postseason last year, but his production during the regular season in three years with Denver hasn't been anything special. Suh is a dominant defensive lineman year after year. Even in a poor season in Miami where he wasn't used to best advantage he still had more sacks and more tackles than Jackson did in 2015. The "mental concerns" are way overblown. He hasn't been suspended for illegal drugs, or beat up a woman, or even slacked off after receiving the big contract. He is not Haynesworth.

The big problem with the Jags last year was the DL, especially with Marks missing most of the year and not completely over the ACL injury when he did play. Imagine what a difference it would have made had the Jags signed Suh last year. Some of those 4-man rushes on 3rd and long wouldn't have given Hoyer et al. 5+ seconds to find an open receiver. The Jags would have won two or three more games, one against the tinhorns, and maybe even won the division.

One could argue that we're better off now because the poor performance resulted in getting rid of Babich, and two (apparently) great draft picks which we wouldn't have had with a winning season (we'd probably just have Jack). But I'd rather the Jags made the playoffs last year. It's been too long.
