I have a lot of hope this deal will get done.

 

Its been reported/speculated several times that Mack does NOT want to be a Brown any longer and would rather play for a different team.  So if the Jags have just submitted an offer sheet for a 5 YEAR DEAL.  Then there would be a risk that Mack would end up being a Brown for 5 MORE YEARS!

 

To me, this means that they are confident enough that the Jaguars deal will go through that Mack will personally risk being signed long term with a team he doesnt want to play for (Browns)

 

So...Basically my theory is that this deal will go through, otherwise Mack wouldnt have risked being signed long term like this with the Browns

 

Make sense?
