Jags resigned Abry Jones

If he can come back from this achilles surgery he should still be a Jaguar through 2018.  A number of defensive linemen have successfully returned after such a surgery in the past.  It's not a 100% success rate of course, but he's got a chance. 
 

I'm not so sure he's back. Abry Jones is obviously going to be the starter going forward and while $4million for Miller isn't expensive, I'm not sure they pay that for a backup player who is used only on run downs. Not to mention that Miller will be on the wrong side of 30 at the start of the season and coming off a difficult injury for linemen.

Unfortunately, I too think Miller will have a tough time making it back.  An achilles injury only a season removed on a 30 year old big 320 pound NT is not easy to come back from.  They structured his deal favorably in that they can release him with only a $200k dead money hit this season.  He's a good player and person...hope he is able to make it back.  I think we'll see a young NT come in and compete for the backup/rotational spot behind Jones.

I've never met anyone who wouldn't shoot you for putting Cheez Whiz on their cheese steak, but I've actually tried one.

My buddy who listens to 1010XL (god only knows why), says the guys over there thought he'd get 4yrs 35-40million. What a bunch of morons. I hate those guys. Terrible. Just terrible.

Well they were half right. It is a four-year deal.

9-10 Mill a year for a NT? He isn't Poe from Cheifs and I don't even think Poe will get a contract that big.

Linval Joseph got 5 years 31.5 million from the Vikings with 13.5 guaranteed. Given that, I think Abry may have actually, knowingly or unknowingly, given the Jaguars a bit of a hometown discount.

I think he certainly did. Not even just looking at the tape but the numbers speak for themselves. He's been pretty productive here for a once spell guy and could've gotten at least 2 mil more in guaranteed money elsewhere. Would love to see the contract and if there is incentives.

He gave the team a discount no matter what the contract terms are, because ultimately he didn't even test free agency. He must like it in Jax, because he definitely could've had the same or more money elsewhere imo. Really glad he's sticking around, he played well last year.

It's not that big of a discount guys. He is going to be paid like the ~20th highest DT in the league, and if you isolate by nose tackles he's going to be in the top 5.

 

If you play inside you just don't get PAID unless you're elite. 4 mil is a fair, maybe a tad generous even, market price IMO.

$16M - 4 year contract isn't too bad. He's really worked hard and worked his way up the ladder since 2013 here. He's earned it. Roy Miller is more than likely out due to being unable to stay healthy.

 

Sen'Derick Marks should potentially be cut as well. I wouldn't be surprised to see them re-sign Tyson Alualu and retain Jared Odrick though. 

 

Depending on how the combine plays out I am thinking we're going Johnathan Allen or Solomon Thomas now with the 4th overall pick.
