nice to have colston back for his 12 to 14 game a year appearance.

If we can pick up Ben Grubbs for a bit less than Nicks and still have some room for a LB or two, I am cautiously optimistic about losing Nicks.

Grubbs is better than decent and our coaches will make up for the minor downgrade with their blocking schemes, I'm sure...

Jaguars give Laurent Robinson five-year, $32.5 million contract | ProFootballTalk

If Colston didn't accept a hometown discount, how do you explain this?

WRs are getting RIDICULOUS $ so far!

Love me some Marques! He did the right thing!

Wrong example Rocky.

How do you explain this?!

The Bucs are the new Redskins, this almost shouldn't count. (But it does.)

I chose the LATEST example of grossly overpaying a WR.

I fully concur with your example!

There have been so many this week!

I was stunned that we retained such a fantastic WR for peanuts!

His record should would have gotten him a lot more money. He obviously wanted to stay here.

That he wasn't the most coveted WR is just dumb in my mind!

Paraphrasing: "All he does is get first downs!"

Desean Jackson signs for 51 million. Goodness gracious we made out like bandits.
