<p class="">If Jaguars get Vernon, they get top two players on the market in my rankings

We still need an edge guy though, which is why we need Vernon.

No one could have ever said before FA that we need to get BOTH Malik and Vernon. They are considered 2 of the top 5-6 FA's on market and both would command 12-15M per year. Can't expect to sign TWO of those types. It looks possible now, but you really shouldn't expect it lol.

Then we draft a guy on top of getting someone cheaper in FA that is more depth than a key player. Fowler already fits in as a LEO.

 

Trust me, I want Vernon and really feel good about it happening, but you can't possibly expect both Malik and Vernon lol. Regardless of reports. There's some teams that have a ton of money that has barely spent anything.

Would be good move for pats.
 

 They might as well open another Rutgers campus in Foxborough.

I'm sure Dave is going to pull out all the stops here for Vernon. Dave knows that with Vernon Fowler and Jackson, we have the opportunity to put together a rush like Denver had.

Dolphins officially removed transition tag from Vernon.

I really really want Vernon. 25 years old, from Florida, position of need, one of the best guys at applying pressure and has 25.5 sacks over the last 3 years.

This is not outrageous.  Obviously the Jags were not keen on him.

Lower than I expected for Irvin actually. I agree he cant have been as much of a priority as we thought

Someone changed Olivier Vernon's wikipedia page to say he was playing for the Falcons. I thought it'd be amusing to change it to Jaguars. Now it says he plays for the Atlanta Braves  :teehee:

Wow... i was really thinking he was getting 5/50. I would have been fine if we paid that much lol. Guess Caldwell had his limit. Good thing im not the gm lol.
