The fact that the Jags got anything for him is a plus.


He was coached by the worst staff in sports, watch him get 10TD's with Miami while we cut our extra 7th in August.

Essentially we traded JT and a 7th next year for Albert and a 7th this year. Not bad.

Not saying I liked his play, but he's worth more than a 7th.

Based on the fact we had the worst coaching staff in sports, a QB that couldn't throw a football last year, and he wasn't that bad his first year here.

And that equates to a 5th rounder? Doubt it.

Does, he's shown he's better than 7th round talent. Oh well agree to disagree.

A 7th for a player you were going to cut is a good deal.

Julius Thomas was a pointless player because he refused to block. You're not fooling anyone unless you can block. If you can't - you might as well trot out another WR in place of JT.

So, wouldn't that mean the trade got us out of the contract.

If he does get 10 tds.

It's because his qb can throw the fade.

Bortles sux at that

He has always been a pass-catching TE. We never planned to use him as a blocker.
