He was on the all-rookie team his 2010 season, and was solid last year with like you just said a pro bowl year in 2012. 2011 was a rough year, solid years all around from the guy and going to an offensive that fits him better than what he was in...sounds good to me. 6M per for that? Slightly overpaid, but just slightly. He's shown he is one of the better guards in the league, if he isn't top 10 he is close. Going to ZBS where he fits in perfectly? Wouldn't surprise me in the least if he gets into that echelon.

exactly.

WHew, glad we were able to seal the deal with Dekoda Watson due to having Bradley in tow. 

 

Please,....until we land someone of relevance because of Bradley being here, the above post is nothing but a puff piece. 

You're a special little snowflake.

I dunno if I'd go quite that far....but we haven't really made any "wow" signings, or signings that really change anything in the win column much.

And this is why we'll be watching the playoffs for years to come until someone opens their pocket book up instead of having the most cap room in  the NFL

I find it odd that anyone expects that ^ to happen after all of the comments Caldwell has made to the contrary.  

 

He wants his home runs in the draft.  It's the best way to build the team and he's been preaching it like a broken record since his first press conference. 

 

I think we'll see some "wow" in the first 3 rounds of the draft.

But that doesn't mean anything.   Great teams are not built with free agents.  In fact, it seems like every year someone "wins" free agency and winds up not making the playoffs.

We don't have the most cap room. At least know what you're talking about when you criticize.

Gerhart said he walked away from his meeting with Bradley and was like "Yes I belong here!"


Looks like players love this guy and I do too!

From listening to Toby Gerhart's press conference, it is apparent that the word is getting out that Gus Bradley is a coach players want to play for.

I'm failing to see what "wow" FAs we should have signed that would have put us over the top and into the playoffs this season...

 

The guys getting the big wow contracts are all on the wrong side of 30 and going to contenders that are spending to win now.

Denver, Chicago, 9ers, etc.

 

You want your draft picks to turn into "wow" players. You want to use FA to sign cogs to build the team. Adding free agent middle tier guys that are still relatively young and can be veteran leaders if we're "there" in a couple seasons, and cheaper contracts so if they don't work out or fall off a cliff, you can dispose of them and hit the middle market again.

 

Should we have overpaid for an aging vet that won't be any good to us when we are actually ready to contend in the playoffs? No. 

SMH...

I agree that most of the top tier free agents are too old and too expensive.

 

I would of liked to see a play at mack but with the tag the jags would have to spend big money to get him.

We are currently sitting around 48M and have Clemons, Thurmond, Willie Young, Ziggy Hood, Emmanuel Sanders, and Chris Clemons either on their way for a visit, in a visit, or have visited. We are #3/#4 on the list with most cap room, so no, we won't finish FA with the most cap room.
