#Jaguars signed LT Kelvin Beachum to a 1-yr, $4.5M deal… with a 4-year option worth $40M, source said. Creative with Beachum off an ACL

 

Ok that's awesome. We get to make him prove it and if he does then we get him at a very reasonable price. Love it.

Assuming Rapoport's wording is correct, I can't recall a player ever receiving an option like that. That's good news for us though, it's pretty much the ultimate prove it deal.

---

If we pick up the option it's going to overage out to $8.9 AAV, tied for 13th highest contract. That ranking will obviously drop even more every year with the new LTs that hit the market. Years 3-4-5 of this deal are going to be such a steal.

---

I love John Idzik. He was a terrible GM but his cap management and contract negotiation is second to none.

Jaguars hosted TE Harry Innis, from England, for a workout today, per source. <a class="bbc_url" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Jaguars?src=hash'>#Jaguars</a>

That's almost as good as Harry Colon.

<p class="">The Russell Okung deal is actually structured as a one-year, $5m deal with a team option for the final four years at $12m per year.

That makes more sense.

If Beachum can play at the level he was before his ACL we've got a bargain... Cheaper than Okung who is much worse than him.

---

Oh, the 4 year extension is actually for 35.5 mil. That would make 40 mil total for the entirety of the 5 year deal. 

 

That sounds familiar...

We run the cap game.

Apparently the guy started out as a DE in college and swapped to O-line later on. Also is a gold gloves boxer. Seems pretty athletic.

I love how this team is handling the cap. I'm interested to see how they handle the re-signings of Bortles, Arob, Hurns, Smith, etc.

---

That's the litmus test for the cap guys. It's easy to spend when we have a butt load of money. When we have a bunch of quality guys to extend at the same time? That's a different shell game.

  Being that the Seahawks use a similar type of Defense as the Jaguars,  I'm wondering what position they envision Mike Neal playing for the most part?    Do they see him as a LEO,  as an OTTO, or a combination of both?

 

  The Lions currently don't have any meaningful depth at DE.   At the very least,  Mike Neal is extremely likely being viewed as a DE in some expected passing situations.
