he is young and when Jack was with the jags he was one of better runner stoppers in the nfl. the kid needs a new start imo. he can be had for cheap after last year.

Yeah, Knighton played for the vet minimum for the JAX under his last contract, so he won't brake the bank and would therefore provide some needed depth at the NT position.

Since the draft if deep in D-linemen I would just as soon see Smith go some where else and be average at best.

Yeah, but food is better here than in Jacksonville - so will he have Johnathan Sullivan Syndrome?!?

A good kid who can't control his weight - that's frustrating...

At least it wouldn't be a high risk type of a signing since his salary would be very close to that vet minimum, and you could add some bonus clauses for him to keep his weight under a certain limit.

Anyway, I think he would be a nice big anchor for the nose, who'd be cheap and he could potentially surprise a lot of people because he does have some skills - maybe New Orleans would be the place to get that potential out of him?

Well, there are not that many 3-4 NT on the market this season; but I'm all for affordable depth...

affordable depth is key

it is the chance that he will blossom here.

he has a chance to be steal in FA, much more so than 90% of the free agents out there. If he returns to form he played with under Jack Del Rio he will take the starters role in a heart beat.

Yes i am that high on him getting a change and winning is just what he may need. high rewards gamble with very little risk.

opps am i talking upside lol

No, and I have no problem with risks; it's just we don't have many bullets left and we've got two thirds of the league who have plenty of ammo and the room to add him as depth when we need a starter...
