I know most people are familiar with Allen's story, but I always find it moving. I was actually sitting directly in front of his family when he went down with a head injury against San Diego. His mother was understandably terrified and her reaction will stay with me for the rest of my life.
It is easy to lose to sight of the human element it this game, but I couldn't be happier that such a good young man's hard work has paid off. So very few of them make it this far. http://m.jacksonville.com/sports/columni...1F0B4422C4
Hmm pay 10m a year to a player like Hurns, or a player like Jerry Porter?
Hurns has earned this one, and he's a top 100 player in the league.

Listed as 6'3" 205# on the team website. [/quote Incorrectly. He was measured at 6'1" at the combine. Doesn't make a difference.
I remember the double move he put on the safety against the Eagles in his first game.
That was one of the sickest moves I've ever seen. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!
Quote:You know it's on, it's on when there's no trace of 'negatron' four pages deep! If he continues to produce and improve, that seems about right. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Now he's got this Cameo thing going on. That's gotta be good for another 2". Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Quote:When was the last time we had a wideout that deserved to be paid this kind of money? Jimmy Smith in early to mid 2000's? I didn't know how to put in my statement that we found him. We didn't draft Hurns but we kind of did but not really lol. Obviously J Smooth but as far as us acquiring a rookie player some way and developing him into that player that should get paid that level of money.

Bottom line is he is a Jaguar for the last two years and the next four, and I am quite happy with that result. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

You either die as a good poster, or live long enough to become the troll.

He's just not very smart. ![]() Quote:Now, get ready to witness the vacation. Right, because someone with his work ethic and drive to improve is suddenly going to shut it down. Brilliant. Sometimes I question the utter lack of logic some people stumble on to this board with. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Quote:Now, get ready to witness the vacation.There have been players who have gotten the big money contract and shut it down. I don't think that's the case here for two reasons: 1. Based upon what everyone has said about Hurns, he is universally lauded in the Jaguars organization for his toughness and work ethic. 2. He is still young enough to where if he continues to excel, he would be in line for another contract down the road. In other words, if he is money motivated, there is still ample incentive for him NOT to shut it down now. He is 24 now. By the end of this extension, he'll be 28 or 29. If he renegotiates with a year left on his extension, he'll be 27 or 28. He could get another big money deal at that age. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!
