Could they do it cap wise with Garrett’s new deal?

I don’t think Garrett can be moved after signing his new deal

I continue to believe that the Jags are def open to trading BTJ.  Gladstone and Cohen are both 1st you guys, and they have disappointed with BTJ this year. New GM's love their draft picks, and I can see them trying to recoup the 1 they traded away.

After Russini initially leaked that they were listening, days later the Jags report that they are not trading him.

They did not have a need at WR and just traded to picks for 1, and then immediately again report that they are not looking to trade him, although there moves say otherwise.

That being said, it still has to be for the right price.

Come on Beane, let's get it done, please!!!

WR was absolutely a need for the Jaguars; their WRs have been arguably the worst in the league this season.

I don’t get why anyone thinks Meyers is good. This is like some bizarro media creation. 

 

[BeastMaster]

I think BTJ is more available than is being let on

 

Teams that don't have a first round pick love to try and recoup if possible, and they have Hunter and now Meyers

 

Bills should be aggressive on both Olave and BTJ

He’s an interesting fit I know people want burner speed but someone capable that can get open in the intermediate areas would be an upgrade too.  Good run blocker also.  I’d be a little concerned with injury type stuff 

No

 

Too expensive 

Similar to Shakir

Too fragile

He's not a Hall of Famer, but he is a good receiver.

I tend to agree but there's no reason NOT to pull the lever on Johnson deal. It allows us to get it out of the way in case a deal is made, and if we don't use the cap space it carries over to next year anyway, so there is not reason not to do it. It doesn't mean a deal is already in place, or even close. 

 

The reason not to do it is it makes it more costly to get out of Taron's contract before it expires. So when teams do these restructures it's for a specific reason that they need the cap space for.

Olave and Waddle are definitely better than BTJ imo.

I don’t think that’s a fair assessment at all since he’s only been in the league for a year and a half and athletically is far superior to both those guys. If I had to rank them, I would put waddle number one just because he’s a proven commodity without the concussion history and brings the element that we need to our offense with the least amount of risk, but BTJ’s upside is insane and last year he was just scratching the surface even with the down year this year

He’s someone to give a chance to.

Wonder if his being on the PS with Davis being subpar is a sign he’s not ready.  And the fact that Davis had zero rushing touches says something about what they feel about Davis currently.

 

As far as what we should get? Defense. Need to bolster the line after losing Ed and Hoecht.

 

 

Hard to say. I think if Davis or Ty got injured, Gore gets elevated, so I think they believe he can play.

 

I'd honestly be happy with Harrison Phillips on the D-line. Solid run stuffer who can hold his own. I'm still hoping for a boundary WR like Shaheed who can also return kicks. Codrington is still in a roster spot and is a healthy scratch. I'm not thrilled with Davis/Johnson and Shakir returning kicks.

For those wanting BTJ or thinking the Meyers trade is an indication they are about to move him. 
 

Nothing long term has been determined from the injury as of now, but this feels like a depth move, not a chess move. 

When a team is down on a player (not sure if debatable), and then he gets hurt, they certainly don't love him anymore.  They would probably welcome a new, healthy fresh body and some draft picks. 

Seems like a failing marriage between BTJ and the new regime.

He put up a stat line of 71 catches for 807 yards (11.4 ypc) and 8 tds in 2023 with Garoppolo, Aidan O'Connell, and Brian Hoyer throwing him the ball.  He isn't a top tier wr but he is very good and would have made our wr room better.

1.5 mil yearly base on a 1 year deal then he’s a free agent in regards to your first point so that one is not an issue.  He’s actually super cheap for a one year rental I think his contract has void years and that’s where the cash figure is coming from.  Other two are fair enough points though I can see that.

Olave is one hit away from a nice lady feeding him porridge the rest of his life.

His dead cap hit would be 40 ish million, but it's not undoable. 

 

Browns have a long rebuild coming and could use the extra picks. I would assume it would take something crazy like 3 first round picks or 2 firsts and a player.

Yeah potential is a nice thing to have.

How does that pertain to Meyers? Are you saying he's overrated?

Someone mentioned the BTJ and Hunter injuries as to why the jags went after him. Whilst one can hope he is available, after reading that the Meyers trade makes sense for them. They’re still in with a shot to make the playoffs in the AFC, getting that help for the position does something.
