| PRO Fournette released from the Jaguars. Some of you guys that follow the NFL will have to answer this for me. This organization do anything right...

...in the draft? This shocked me when I read it this weekend...not a franchise player in the group of 1st round picks? Only two with their contracts extended? Hey, I don't follow the NFL other than headlines and a few reads each day but this confuses the heck out of me. Is this the norm in the league?

The Jags first round picks:

2008: D. Harvey (cut)
2009: E. Monroe (traded)
2010: T. Alualu (extended)
2011: B. Gabbert (traded)
2012: J. Blackmon (susp.)
2013: L. Joeckel (declined)
2014: B. Bortles (extended)
2015: D. Fowler (traded)
2016: J. Ramsey (traded)
2017: L. Fournette (released)

Geez, look at this.

There are reasons that some teams are almost always in the bottom of wins and loses every year. Cleveland, Cincinnati and Jacksonville to name a few. They need to hire someone that knows how to draft.

I'm pretty sure he was a cancer in Jacksonville. He has inflated self worth as well. I wish Yeldon would get back to Jacksonville instead of sitting behind that fool.

I can throw my hat in the ring for GM.

Geez, look at this.

At least O'Shag-Hennessy is still with the team. He's their principal player...

Geez, look at this.

If I count right, 18 out of the 61 listed on their roster for any part of 2017 were no longer in the NFL at all by the start of the 2019 season. And lots of them were only in their first 3-5 years.

You certainly could not do any worse...I hope.

Are the Titans bringing him in to back up King Henry? Seems...apropos if that's true.
