Quote:This is an ignorant statement. 

 

Had the Jags simply let Monroe leave via FA, another team would pretty much have had to give him a max long term deal to acquire his services, as there would be several suitors, given you typically don't find that combo of quality/ youth on the UFA market. 

 

Since compensatory picks are decided by salary, the Jags would have likely received MIMIMUM of one 3rd rounder and possibly 2 of those had they let him walk. 

 

Not sure where you are coming up with the meager lone 4th round comp pick....

 

With all due respect, I find it hard to believe that you know more than a rookie GM with the following resume. I am sure all of the options you mentioned were looked at with a fine toothed comb.
