Big Cat Country My opinion of the Jaguars

In my opinion the Jaguars suck right now. Last year we over achieved and got our expectations up. This year we are playing to our abilities. We have some items that we must remember. We had 5 years of bad drafting and free agent signings. Our past GM drafted for need and only need. He signed free agents the same way. Our present GM drafts BAP (best player available) and looks for young up and coming players during free agency. This year we addressed our defense in free agency and now have a top 5 defense even through we have 5 starters out. Jacksonville will be addressing the offensive side of the ball during the April draft and free agency this year. Our head coach and coaching staff should be replaced with a few exceptions. Our entire defensive coaching staff should be retained they are part of the reason we have a top 5 defense. Hopefully we will get a qb coach who will develop our young qb and help him read defenses better. A wide receiver coach that can teach our receivers route running and catching the ball. Will all this fixed and we get a quality wideout in the draft and in free agency we should be winning the AFC south division for the next few years .

Big Cat Country My opionion of the off season

Release/Don’t resign Mike Sims-Walker Jason Hill Rashean Mathis ?? Brian Robiskie ?? Zach Miller ?? Aaron Kampman ?? Ashton Youboty ?? T.J. Heath ??

 Resign Dwight Lowery Jeremy Mincey CJ Mosely Matt Roth Courtney Greene Luke McCown Josh Scobee John Estes.

The new head coach needs to be strong willed offensive minded and have 1 helluve of a defensive coordinator. During the off season we will have many choices to make.  Such as who to resign and who to let go.  The people with ? Are the ones that I have an issue with? 3 of them are on ir and may never be the same player they were when they came here. The other 3 are new pick ups or a drafted player who has played very little. I say  resign  Mathis  for a incentive laden contract , Zach Miller has shown lots of promise but has a history of injury problems  so I would  say  good by. Aaron Kampman depends on his training camp if his knee is healthy and he has the fire keep him other wise release him. As for the others unless they step up and show something I say see ya.

During Free agency try and sign a good wr.  Bowe , Macadam or  Colstan  would be nice 2 would  be better   but lets not  get greedy. See what is available in the CB market and look for an o lineman to provide depth for next year.  During the draft  we need to address WR  1st or  2nd  round   CB  1st or 2nd  round  then  o-line  d-line  punter and  line backer  in any order  with the  exception of the punter  get him in the last round  of the draft  what do you think.

Big Cat Country The CBA by a fan

This is how I would like to see the cba hammered out. 18 game regular season with 2 pre season games. Rosters start at 80 for the 2 preseason games then get cut to 65 till game 4 of the regular season. Then they get cut to 60. Practice squads are 10 strong. Players can be placed on injured reserve and taken off twice during the season. Any player on the IR after the 10 th game of the season is there for the entire season. Salary cap for rookies, all rookies have a 4 year deal with a option for a fifth. Both teams and the players union will put money in to a medical fund to help all retired players with medical issues. Players get 52% owners get 43% , with the other 5% going into the medical fund. Players will be put on the competition committee. This is how I would like to see it at this time any suggestions

Big Cat Country 2010 JAGUARS ROSTER DEFENSE

Here is the second part of what I think our 2010 roster will look like’ I see 9 defensive line man, 5 linebackers and 10 defensive backs. Defensive line Aaron Kampman, Reggie Hayward, Derrick Harvey, Larry Hart, Atiyyah Ellison, Terrance Knighton, Tyson Alualu, D’Anthony Smith, Jeremy Mincey Linebackers Justin Durant, Kirk Morrison, Daryl Smith, Russell Allen, Freddy Keiaho Defensive backs Sean Considine, Reggie Nelson, Anthony Smith, Gerald Alexander, Don Carey, Tyron Brackenridge, Rashean Mathis, Derek Cox, Scott Starks, Michael Coe I believe that if our pass rush can get to or hurry the QB our defensive backs will do better. Our line backers our solid and we may have 2 pro bowl caliber players this year at that position. Our line depends on our rookies and Pot roast; if they come thru we will make the playoff at least.

Big Cat Country 2010 Jaguars roster offensive players

I know this is early but this is the dead zone and here are some ideas to kick about. Our offensive will have 25 players and our defense will have 24 for 49. We will carry 4 special team players. This is how I break it down. 9 offensive linemen. Guards Kynan Forney, Uche Nwaneri Vince Manuwai, Justin Smiley Tackles Eben Britton, Eugene Monroe, Jordan Black, Paul McQuistan Center Brad Meester Cecil Newton. The reason I put 10 is Meester training camp will tell if he has it or not. Tight ends 4 Marcedes Lewis, Zach Miller, Ernest Wilford, Zach Potter 5 wide receivers Mike Sims-Walker, Mike Thomas, Jarett Dillard, Kassim Osgood, Tiquan Underwood, 2 Quarter backs David Garrard, Luke McCown 5 running backs/ full backs Deji Karim, Maurice Jones-Drew, Rashad Jennings, Greg Jones, Montell Owens, Brock Bolen, the reason I put 6 running backs is Greg Jones need to see if he is fully recovered from his knee injury of last year 4 special team players PK Josh Scobee, Punter Adam Podlesh, LS Jeremy Cain, KR/PR Scotty McGee,

Big Cat Country 2011

The NFL is in trouble and big trouble it is. In 2011 Football may go away forever. The players say the owners want to much. The owners say the players have the lions share of the pie Who is right. I say both of them. The players get 61 % of the profits, but they also have the risk of getting hurt or better yet crippled. T%he owners want to take the game to Mexico, England and possibly Japan to grow the market. If there is a strike in 2011 no one wins and we the fans get fubar again. I know that I for one would not come back< I did it with Baseball, basketball and Hockey and could do it with the nfl as well .

Big Cat Country free agency

What should the Jaguars do in free agency. There should be enough talent to help address some of our weakness for the short term. There are also a few who could be long term solutions. The safety position looks like the most promising position to pick some one up at. Defensive tackle is also a good looking crop but may be out of our price range.what are youe throughs on what position we should up grade

Big Cat Country 2010 Jaguars Needs

The following are the needs I believe that the Jags will address in the up coming off season. These needs will be filled either thru the draft, free agency or undrafted free agents. I will start with the offensive side first. We need to upgrade the interior line positions particularly left guard and center. We should spend at least 1 draft pick on this need. Our tackles are set for at least the next 5 years. Our tight ends are serviceable and we may get one via the undrafted free agents. Wide receiver we need at least 1 to keep every ones competiveness going. Running back depends on where we draft and who is available you never have too many good running backs. Full back it depends on Greg Jones injury and how Brock Bolen plays. Now for the million dollar question, QUARTER BACK we need to address this with a draft pick, but not necessarily a number 1. There are several outstanding quarterbacks in this class. That is why Gene, Jack and the scouting department need to be on the same page for this pick and not pick the home town hero just because he is the home town hero. Now for the defense. We need at least 1 defensive tackle who can disrupt opposing teams blocking schemes.this should be addressed in the draft. We also need a defensive end who is a pass rusher and finisher. This need may be fixed thru free agency or the draft. Linebackers we are set but you can never have to many good ones. Cornerback we are set at for the time being we have 3 decent ones who will get better with a pass rush. Safety is a position that we need some help at or at least have a tackling clas for a couple of them. We need to bring in a place kicker to challenge Scobee and to save his leg during the pre season. We need a punter to push Podlesh and maybe even win the job. RECAP we need to spend a draft choice on the following positions. Offensive line 2 Quarterback 1 Defensive line 2 defensive back 1 That is what I see that we need.

Big Cat Country some weird questons

1} on the first onside kick I through it hit the kc player first before 10 yards 2) Derek Cok picks up a fumble steps out and then gets hit why no flag 3 This one will take some research. Dallas is playing Philly the visiting team has a accident and does not have enough players to complete the season due to injuries. What happens to the game and what happens to the rest of the season

Big Cat Country IMHO the state of the Jaguars after 6 games

The state of the jaguars after 6 games is right where it needs to be. We are not an elite team yet [any way). We are not the doormats either. What we are is a young up and coming team. We will be inconsistence for a while due to growing pains. Yes we can expect the occasional blowout, by us and to us. When our growing pains are done we will have very good team maybe even elite. This years draft is the foundation for great things to come. We hit home runs with our first four draft picks and the remainder of the class is getting significant playing time. Our free agents this year are both teaching and leading our rookies this year. Gene Smith first year as general manager has shown remarkable improvement on the Team. He has gotten rid of players who do not want to play and were cancers to our team last year. He gave Fred Taylor the chance to get his ring instead of keeping him around another year or two. The proof of how well this team is going to be will be next year. The draft should help us fill a few more of the holes we have. Right now the jaguar’s arrow is pointing up and should remain there for quite a few years.

Big Cat Country Jaguars situtation in my opion

As of right now the Jaguars are looking better and here is why. Oline is better due to our new left tackle Tra Thomas and our 2 guards Maurice Williams and Vince Manuwai return to 2007 form we have a serviceable oline add 1 or 2 draft picks preferably a tackle for the future and a center and we should be all right for a while. TIGHT ENDS we are set there for the time being with what we have. Receivers we need to address this in the draft and undrafted free agents QB we need to keep Lemon 1 more year as a back up and draft a replacement next year when there will be a slew of good qbs to draft Running back no need there Dline We need to get a DT to pair with big John and see how are 2 DE"s from last year improve Line backers are good and we have some depth Secondary We need to change Rashean Mathis to safety and Reggie Nelson to CB put Brian Williams at cb and use Sean Considine at safety our weak link would be Williams At this time our draft should go like this 2 oline men 2 wide receivers 1 running back 2 defensive backs That is my take what do you think

Big Cat Country opinion from Jagnation

I was just at Jaguars .com and they have a little debate about Jay Cutler and the Jaguars trying to obtain his services and trading David Garrard. My opinion is no we don't trade for Cutler he has some baggage that we do not know about and I rate David better then him, also this trade would possible cost us draft picks which we desperately need. I believe our future quarter back is in next years draft because there are 5 or 6 good ones coming out. Jagnation your opinion please

Big Cat Country O-line help

Just got this off of si.com looks like we may be able to getat least 2 needs filled in this years draft, a left tackle and maybe a center with Alex Mack, California, Center at # 8 and with our 1st second round pick William Beatty, Connecticut, OT.

that should help solidify our line for a while. Offensive lineman 1. Eugene Monroe, Virginia, OT: A dominating tackle prospect with exceptional athleticism and body control. Best described as a "dancing bear" on the edge, Monroe does an outstanding job of shadowing agile rushers off the edge. His ability to stay square in pass protection is rare and has scouts raving about his potential on the next level. Though some would like to see Monroe play more aggressively as a run blocker, his finesse style is effective due to his sound technique and fundamentals. He is masterful at working angles and is an efficient blocker on the second level. Monroe is undoubtedly the best tackle prospect at the position and should be the first offensive linemen taken on draft day.

2. Jason Smith, Baylor, OT: A former tight end who brings outstanding athleticism to the position. Smith has the lateral quickness to neutralize speed rushers off the edge and possesses the strength and body control to stop bull rushers in their tracks. Though Smith is exceptional in pass protection, he has also shown signs of developing into a dominant run blocker. He consistently moves defenders off the ball and is one of the best finishers in this year's draft class. With a rare combination of size, strength and athleticism, Smith is a franchise-type offensive tackle who should come off the board early in the first round.

3. Andre Smith, Alabama, OT: A mammoth offensive line prospect who simply mauls defenders at the point of attack. Blessed with exceptional size and strength, Smith is most effective as a drive blocker in the running game. His ability to create a surge along the line will improve any running game. As a pass blocker, Smith has good balance and body control, but struggles against speed off the corner. Though he is able engulf most rushers with his size, he will have problems containing elite rushers as a pro. In fact, his struggles have led some scouts to project Smith as a guard prospect. Smith is still considered a first-round talent, but teams are undecided to which position will best suit his skill set.

4. Michael Oher, Mississippi, OT: An intriguing prospect with the physical tools to develop into a top notch offensive tackle. As one of the best athletes at the position, Oher displays the balance and body control to handle finesse rushers off the edge. Additionally, the former Rebel has the strength to stop bull rushers without allowing penetration. Oher also shows good strength and power as a run blocker. He routinely dominates defenders at the point of attack, and creates a solid push along the line. Though scouts would love to see Oher dominate his foes consistently, they love his potential and view him as one of the top prospects at the position.

5. Alex Mack, California, C: An outstanding prospect with terrific size and strength for the position. Mack is explosive after the snap and shows tremendous power moving defenders off the ball. His ability to hold his own against a number of heavyweights at the Senior Bowl cemented his status as a top-notch interior run blocker. While Mack has been lauded for his physicality in the running game, he also has the balance and body control to neutralize pass rushers. He anchors well against power and shows surprising quickness when mirroring quick rushers in pass protection. It is rare for a center prospect to come off the board in the first round, but Mack's overall ability is so superior he warrants serious consideration at the bottom of the round.

6. William Beatty, Connecticut, OT: The former Husky's performance during Senior Bowl week skyrocketed his value on draft boards. An exceptional athlete with outstanding size and strength, Beatty shows the potential to develop into a franchise-caliber offensive tackle. Though he is still raw in some technical aspects of the position, Beatty's footwork and lateral quickness allow him to effectively shadow speed rushers off the edge in pass protection. As a run blocker, Beatty has the quickness and movement skills to work effectively on the second level. He routinely seals the edge on outside runs and is an impressive blocker in space. With enormous potential and upside, Beatty will continue to climb up the charts with solid pro workouts and may wind up sneaking into the bottom of the first round.

7. Max Unger, Oregon, C: An exceptional center prospect with rare athleticism and body control for his size, Unger possesses outstanding movement skills and is one of the few centers in the game capable of getting out of his stance to pull on outside runs. Additionally, Unger is a quick-footed athlete who is nimble enough to shadow finesse rushers in pass protection. His balance is rare for such a big man, and many scouts project Unger as a combo player (center/guard) as a pro. At any rate, Unger is one of the top interior blockers available and should hear name called near the top of the second round.

8. Jamon Meredith, South Carolina, OT: An experienced and durable prospect with solid overall skills. Meredith started 25-consecutive games for the Gamecocks and projects as a right tackle as a pro. Armed with a strong punch and surprisingly light feet, Meredith shines in pass protection. Though his lack of bulk (he only weighed 289 during his senior season) makes him susceptible to bull rushes and power moves, he does a respectable job of battling top rushers on the edge. As a run blocker, Meredith lacks the power to consistently move defenders off the ball, but is a sticky blocker who works hard to finish. With solid tackle prospects scarce, teams value an all-around prospect like Meredith and will make a play for his services in the second round.

9. Eben Britton, Arizona, OT: A prototypical tackle prospect with exceptional size (6-foot-6, 310 pounds) and skills for the position, Britton is a better-than-advertised athlete who effectively uses his long arms to keep defenders stymied in pass protection. Although he occasionally loses discipline with his footwork and fundamentals, Britton's raw talent allows him to win the majority of his battles on the edge. As a run blocker, Britton is neither dominating nor forceful, but he is effective at keeping his guy out of the play. Britton is far from a polished product at this point, but his size and untapped potential makes him an intriguing prospect in the second round.

10. Phil Loadholt, Oklahoma, OT: The former Sooner star is a behemoth (6-8, 348 pounds) with good strength and power. Loadholt uses his massive frame to engulf defenders at the point of attack and is most effective as a straight-line blocker in the running game. Although he flashes some agility for his size, he lacks the movement skills to be effective on the second level. In addition, his lack of athleticism is exposed in pass protection, as he routinely struggles against speed rushers off the edge. While Loadholt is sure to have his struggles on the edge as pro, some scouts believe that he has a chance to develop into a serviceable pro in the right run-based system.

Big Cat Country Fred Taylor cut

Just heard on the radio that the Jaguars are cutting Freddy T today with a press conference at 1:30 . The reason they gave is they want to get younger at the running back position and save about 6 million dollars. Fred may come back at a lower payday. Fred thank you for the great times you gave us. This make Maurice jones Drew the number 1 running back and possibly Greg Jones as the back up

Big Cat Country 2009 jAGUARS ROSTER

My prediction is that at least 17 players on this years current roster will not be with the Jaguars next year. We could be losing some players that have helped the team in the past, Here is who I see leaving . Brad, Meester comes back only at right price Barnes, Khalif gone Florence, Drayton may stay depends on d coordinator James, William gone Lowry, Calvin gone Hayward, Reggie depends on health Jeremy Mincey depends on health Ellison, Atiyyah gone Peterson, Mike gone Black, Jordan gone Weatherford, Steve or Podlesh, Adam 1 will go Lemon, Cleo gone need to get a jar on the shelf Pearman, Alvin gone Gerald Sensabaugh fa/ we need to resign Wrighster III, George gone Hughes, Nate gone Williams, Reggie gone Troy Williamson gone Lewis, Jonathan gone Naeole, Chris gone Porter, Jerry gone Taylor, Fred back if price is right otherwise gone This list was put together from the roster the IR list and the practice squad

Big Cat Country Derrick Harvey

I hope Derrick watched last nights game and kept an eye on the defensive ends. Because if he did he should realize that if he does not sign and sign soon. He may not be needed. Paul Spicer was great as always, Reggie Haywood did a fantastic job with his time on the field, Groves did what he was suppose to do rush the passer and our undrafted DE did a decent job when they were called upon. Derrick you may be listrnning to your agent but I beleive that you need some one else to listen to talk to mom, dad, sis or any one that will give you good info sign now before it is to late, because if you do not sign with the Jags this year what pick will you be next year not # 8 I can guarantee that
