Jags Sign Wilkinson

The Jaguars signed ex-Giants LB Wilkinson. Drafted in 2006, he has been plagued by injuries for most of his career. Here is a good write up on Wilkinson over at Big Blue View http://www.bigblueview.com/2011/6/17/2214178/keep-or-cut-gerris-wilkinson-giants-roster

This is a guy who is risk/reward type of player.

You sign him to a 1 year deal, if he stays healthy, he can be a solid player all year,(reward), but if he does what he has done the last 5 years, he can get hurt, and get thrown on IR.(risk) Gene must have liked him back then, and he may turn into something special, but could alsio end up being a training camp cut.

John Matthews…again.

And Underwood still lives…not that Matthews was any better.
