How many since Coughlin was run off? :wink:PS- The Jags have won more playoff games in the last 20 years than the Dallas Cowboys. :cool2:
I always thought Millen set the bar for bad GMs, but Gene Smith is a good under the radar pick.There were some decent to good years under Jack Del Rio, but the franchise was mauled by Shack Harris and the worst GM in NFL history, Gene Smith. I mean, just horrible.
Actuallyyy cooper wanted to be far away from home. Check out his ESPN take interviewI was hoping the Jags would draft Amari with the thrid pick because he had said many times that he hoped to play somewhere in Florida, his home state, and because I was praying he wouldn't go to Oakland..
For T.J., this is a very good fit and I think he'll have an opportunity to start or contribute significantly right off the bat.
YPC statistics are toned down significantly in the NFL. Exactly 4 RBs had YPCs of 5 or more last year (5.0, 5.1, 5.1, 5.4, to add perspective). Something in the 4-5 YPC range is good. Robinson may move, but if so, it'll be for durability reasons, not poor production when he was on the field.Look at their roster:
Toby Gerhart 0 in six years as RB, averaging 4.3 yards has 1,631 career total.
Storm Johnson- played in one game
Benard Pierce- His number don't really look good as well.
TJ Yeldon
Denard Robinson -Between Gerhart and Robinson... Both were averaging less than 5 yards per carries. I don't know why he spent so much time at RB... he's better suited as WR... and occasionally 3rd down back.
Honestly, Someone will be the odd man out, and I think it'll be Robinson.... He'll move to WR, and we'll see Yeldon/Gerhart/Pierce. This may be a good for all RBs... Yeldon has great chance to start game 1 this season.
