Its been a long time since the Jags have gone after a top 3 tier player at their position

#1

I don't even remember the last time the Jags went hard for a top 3 player at his position league-wide. Has it even happened?

 

Not sure what to think about this move if we get Mack. On one hand, Hes a center that we're paying a massive amount of money towards which is similar to drafting a kicker or punter higher than the 4th imo. On the other, ITs just for 2-4 years and we won't need a huge amount of cap to sign any rising star draft picks to 2nd contracts till 2016-2017 at the earliest. So why not spend short term money now to make sure we don't flop around on the turf again like we've done the last 3 seasons.

Most of the "top tier" talent we've signed in the past via free agency were on the back side of their careers.  Either that, or they were a bad fit for the team.  Some guys who weren't necessarily top tier, but were close enough were guys like Reggie Hayward and Mike Peterson.  Carnell Lake is another guy who comes to mind, as he was a top tier guy who was playing out his career. 


Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I think Basshunter is talking about FA's, not the draft.

When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.

MJD wasn't a top 3 player at his position? I think he was those 3 years before he got hurt.
