Lets hope Murray doesn't follow him down....

Still haven't found one credible source that the Jags are even interested in Murray, just twitter rumor.

Yeah, the Jags and Raiders are unconfirmed, but they are the teams I'd worry most about. Lots of money to (over) spend, and big targets like Suh, Cobb and McCourty off the board. Those fan bases have been waiting for a splash, starting to look like they may have to settle for a plop

money aside does he want to try to run behind those offensive lines? before last season started Jacksonville was ranked 31 and Oakland was 27. I don't think they improved much during the season. He'll get killed behind those lines.

Reports are saying Parnell will be paid an average of 6.5 million over 5 years. WOW! I didn't think he would get that kind of commitment. Makes the Free signing look even better.

5 years $32 Million.....Holy Crap

a lot of stupid money being spent in Florida these days.

No question. On the Parnell signing, I will say this, if they do throw big money at Murray, those would be a couple of perfect pieces to build around a kid like Bortles

good thing Parnell experienced playing in London last year. he'll be a frequent visitor there with the Jags.

 

[Greg]

Cowboys should also get a 4th round compensatory pick in 2016 going off Parnell's salary. They will get a 3rd rounder if Murray signs elsewhere for $8Mil per average or more range.

I agree. Jags need a proven vet RB to take some of the pressure off of Bortles. I think some of the slow talks with him may be that the Jags are waiting on other offers to leverage deal....if reports are true of their interest.

Yep, and they are getting Julius Thomas. Big help for Bottles

I didn't want to see Parnell go but if the money is true then he needs to go and grab that cash and I would say good for him. I just don't trust Free being able to stay upright for 16 games and I liked what Parnell did backing him up. Honestly I am not sure what they have in backups on the O line right now and how good they really are. I would like to see depth added here.

Interested to see the details. In other words, the guaranteed money. No secret I prefered Parnell to Free, but I said all along I'd be OK with either and would let the dollars help decide. Looks like we are better off with Free at first glance of the two contracts. Good Luck to Parnell

See if we can get a vet lineman on a 1 year type deal and draft 1 in the mid rounds (or early on if a stud falls to us and there isn't anybody else worth taking).

 

[PDay8810]

I've read several times the value of Free is leadership among his linemen mates. If a decision had to be made...I think Dallas made a wise one and then you consider the pay days> No brainer.

seldom do you retain back ups that played and showed some flashes. I'm not sure Parnell is all that, guess we're about to find out

 

[es4m11]

Last time Jacksonville signed a former Cowboy for 5yrs/32mil it didn't work out so well. Maybe this time will be different? Is Laurent Robinson still in the league?

I hope the screen door doesn't hit him in the ass on his way out.
