Sure there are drawbacks, but if you want to win you have to spend money. They not only signed a ton of players last off season but have already re-signed RRH, are looking to now resign the players that did well last year including key and engram, maybe their RT as well?

You don't go from several years of last place to 1st place and the playoffs by sitting around. There were legitimately people on here saying 'lets compare how these WR's do to the teams that did nothing!'

Do you have your panties in a wad because you were 1 of those morons?
Let's not act like they went from a bad team to a juggernaut. They won 9 of 17 games playing 6 against division opponents that were awful. They did make strides, that much is true. But they were still pretty meh.

Lawrence was looking like a bust the first half of the season, second half of the season they took off as his play improved. We are excited about fields, Lawrence can definitely continue to grow as well. I’d take their cast over the bears without a second guess, let’s not act like the offensive and defensive acquisitions they made didn’t play a big role in this as well.

Lawrence will be everything that was expected when he wen t#1.

So....it was the acquisitions? Or Trevor Lawrence?

Listen, I am not saying they were bad. I just pumped the brakes on your crowning them Super Bowl contenders.

They had the No 1 pick and a ton of cap space the last couple years. Who besides Lawrence do they have that are true impact players? Or Pro Bowlers or all Pros?

Despite all that draft capital and FA money they really don't have any bona-fide stars although I suppose the hope is some will emerge out of the last 2 drafts.

That draft isn't all that good.
Yeah i agree. I do like the P.Johnson pick and love the Z.Flowers pick, although he most likely won't be there in the 2nd round, and i'm a big Jack Campbell fan so good with getting him in the 3rd. The others i'd like to see who else was still on the board when those picks were made. Probably would be good with the Keion White pick.

I don’t watch enough jaguars football to know, but what little I did watch etienne seems to be the real deal. Their o line is pretty good.

The FA signing all the fans on here seemed to rip was Christian Kirk, he led the team in yards, targets, and receiving TD’s by a sizable margin.

I don’t think Kirk is a super star by any means but take him away and the team definitely suffers.
