TE Julius Thomas to the Jags


Recommended Posts

The Jaguars have an agreement in place with TE Julius Thomas.

There's no cold feet from Thomas' camp -- not when the Jags are going to pay him roughly $9M per season. It's an exorbitant sum for an injury-prone and one-dimensional player whose red-zone stats are inflated by Peyton Manning. Of course, the Jags have more than enough cap space to burn and had to fight off other interested clubs like the Seahawks/Raiders. Surrounding Blake Bortles with mismatch-creators is crucial even if they have to overpay.

    • Oh contrare, I’d say it says more about Shane Steichen’s skill set as a coach.
    • Excerpt from an article at NFL.com …     ”… One player the Colts can lean on while Richardson gets his sea legs: running back Jonathan Taylor. After last year's hold-in and injury issues, the star running back looks back to his old self. JT bursts through the line like a Mustang on fire, leaving linebackers in his wake. On Sunday, Taylor totaled 12 carries for 103 yards and +55 rushing yards over expected, his most RYOE in a game since Week 15 of 2021. He also forced five missed tackles across 14 touches.    Shane Steichen's decision to bench the star back during the entire fourth quarter because the Colts were in pass mode belies credibility. Even if Taylor isn't a prolific pass catcher out of the backfield, sitting your best offensive weapon for an entire quarter is folly -- hopefully one Steichen doesn't repeat. If defenses are going to sit back to slow Richardson's deep attack, Taylor should gobble up chunk gains.    At this point, Taylor is the most consistent thing going for Indy. The 25-year-old back owns a game-changing gear and can shoulder a massive load. His presence and production should help settle Richardson down during the roller-coaster dips. Taylor hasn't looked fully healthy in a couple of years. He did this past Sunday. The Colts need to ride that stallion.”     The above referenced article kind of echoes my feelings on the matter.    
    • Exactly I am confused with that comment by Shane unless that one drop deserved him to be benched. Again coaches know what's the best. 
    • I'm not sure why the team thinks JT can't be effective in the passing game.   
    • I know that you use the word only once, and I'm sure that you know what it means. But find one example of me contradicting myself please?
