Better question is free agent WR

I believe the Jags will look there first. There are a lot of young free agent wr’s coming off their initial contracts. With the Jags record for drafting wr’s I would rather they check out the free agent market.

I agree.

I see us getting one starter from FA. Then drafting at least one because this is a good year for them. 2nd + 3rd rounder maybe. Not first. Don’t trust Floyd or Alshon.

Prefer a corner, o-line or DE for the first rounder.

Kendall Wright, Dwight Jones, Nick Toon and Mohammed Sanu are all players I’m interested in, although I suspect Wright will climb.

What could of happened; did.

I’d keep Shorts (KR), Thomas (slot), Robiskie (posession), Osgood as a TE, sign either Colston, Bowe or Jackson as a feature WR and then draft two of Wright/Sanu/Toon/Quick/Dwight Jones in rounds 2 and 3. So 7 recievers 3 new. mainly bigger targets with Osgood really a TE and special teamer.

WRF 1:Jackson/Bowe/Colston, 2:Sanu/Jones/Wright/Quick
WRP 3:Robiskie, 4:Toon,
WRSl 5: Thomas, 6: Shorts
TE/Blocking WR: 7: Osgood,Sanu/Jones/Quick
KR Shorts, Sanu

What could of happened; did.

I like this guy

Theres a guy from the MAC, from the University of Toledo, named Eric Page, He holds many records for receiving for UT, He has started at least 3 years, and quite honestly he has been the whole passing game for UT this last season, He is also good at special teams, where he also holds several records, he is smaller in size but his quickness and speed,to go along with his yards after the catch are amazing. He turned many 5-10 yd plays into TD’s, and quite honestly catches everything(something we need the most-he catches the ball) He seems fearless as well(another thing I think causes a lot of drops, from our current batch of recievers-scared) He can line up in the slot, and outside.; Keep an eye on this guy- He has been projected at anywhere from the 3rd- 5th round, Ut receivers have been proven to work good at the NFL level- Lance Moore, Stephen Wlliams

Id love it if

We could land blackmon in rd1 & streeter in rd 3

by caneman4 on Jan 16, 2012 4:42 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

I would love

If we drafted a Marvin Harrison in the 1st and a Reggie Wayne in the 2nd and Blaine turns into a prototype of Peyton. Dreams…..

What does everyone think of Wide receivers Ty Hilton and Mohamad Sanu? i really like both of these guys

by jagsfan30302011 on Jan 17, 2012 11:19 AM EST reply actions  

You forget Stephen Hill of Georgia Tech

Great size and speed. Great run after catch ability. Problem is he’ll have a learning curve due to Tech’s offense but I think Demaryius Thomas is showing that isn’t a problem. Only question marks are his ability to constantly pull his hamstring while also having questionable hands. He also has a knack for coming up with big time catches. Some mocks have him 1st round, most do not. Most of us here at Tech were confused why he left. Probly 5th rounder at best but will probably show well at combine if invited.

by asharp12587 on Jan 17, 2012 3:50 PM EST reply actions  

At best, assuming GT has inflated his height like they did with Thomas himself...

Hill has maybe an inch on Thomas while being about 25-30 pounds lighter. And this is ignoring that nothing you brought up makes Hill comparable to Thomas as a prospect in the first place.

by SilentJag on Jan 22, 2012 12:59 AM EST up reply actions  

Oh no. Thomas is by far better than Hill will ever be.

Just saying he’s big and fast. Just needs to work on his hands and hamstrings. Maybe some route running. I’d take a late round flyer on him if he was still there and we hadn’t taken a receiver yet.

Best Move IMO

Would be to draft Sanu in the 2nd and grab a solid #1 WR in free agency.

by The Bracadomus on Jan 19, 2012 3:56 AM EST reply actions  

#1 in FA

Sanu, Jones, Wright, Mcnutt, etc in the second (depending on who’s available).
If one of the 2nd round guys fall into the 3rd, take him.
Egnew in the 4th.
Broyles in the 5th.

This would be 4 new targets for Blaine, and an extra one that will be around as possibly a 1st-2nd round talent in 2013 in Broyles.

If you take Reiff as your RT and sign G Carl Nicks, we may just have the best offensive line in football by the end of the year.

Our two biggest weaknesses – OL and WR – now becomes a big strength.

I’d love to have a CB and DE just like everyone else, but we will get by with what we have there and still be solid on defense.

All this for only 2 FAs and guys we should have no problems drafting exactly where we’re at.

by Mr.Awesome on Jan 19, 2012 12:04 PM EST up reply actions  

I love me some Michael Floyd. And some Tommy Streeter. And some Jeff Fuller.

Get some big guys out there on the edge who can go up and get it

I am also a big fan of Joe Adams

Late round guy I like is Tim Benford
