WELP: Norman

Quote:um, josh norman is the real deal... plays elite man coverage... the most coveted thing by a cornerback... he is confident and cocky, also important at CB.

 

this has to be something we go all in on... he's 28... that's fine.. if he was already 30 that would be different..  this guy is legit, not a product of a sytem, sure good players around him helped, but he is not a product of a system.. thats ridiculous.

 

anyone who can cover in man coverage like he does, is not a product of anything except his own skills.  Get this guy, please
 

I might be crazy (no pun intended), but I thought Carolina primarily ran a zone coverage scheme...

Going to have to say buyer beware on Norman.  How often does something like this happen?  The Panthers FO has to know something the rest of the league doesnt.  You don't let go of a top CB for no reason.  So what if he threatened to sit all year?  Teams don't just let go of their top player for nothing.

Source tells ESPN's David Newton 10 teams have already contacted CB Josh Norman's reps. Jaguars not among them.

Que the "sky is falling crowd". Josh Norman, while a great talent, is going to be asking for 15 million plus a season. He's going to be 29 and while im sure he is worth the money, may not be the best move right now for the Jaguars. 

 

I think the Jaguars would be better suited to use their cap to resign Bortles, Hurns, Robinson etc in the future. Whether people want to admit this or not, while we can sign Norman, it won't be team friendly and we are not made out of money. 

 

Also, with the two trades being made, and the likely scenario that the first two picks will be QB, Ramsey is much more in play then people realize. I dont think the Chargers go Tunsil, I believe they will take Buckner. Ramsey might slip to the Jags.

It seems like this team is afraid of becoming good.

But what's the harm in contacting his agent and asking what they are looking for? To show no interest whatsoever is foolish.

The guy turned down $14M and evidently presented himself as such a head case that the Panthers rescinded the franchise tag (How often have you heard of that happening?).   What makes you think he would come in here and play hard?    He had 1 good year and now wants to cash in. 

 

Can't blame him for that, but I don't really want another Hugh Douglas thank you.

This is weird. We just saw another "source" say it was San Fran and Us in the hunt. Who knows. If they want him, they can get him.

That's the great thing about "sources" you never have to prove they even exist!
