Free advice on free agency

A year ago, the Jaguars weren't happy with their corps of receivers. After Jimmy Smith's retirement, Reggie Williams, Matt Jones and Ernest Wilford couldn't step up. Primarily because they couldn't consistently catch passes.

The dropsies were spreading through the locker room like a Cleveland-style staph infection, so the team decided that the home-grown products, all obtained through the draft, needed help.

And so they signed Dennis Northcutt. A receiver who had a reputation for ... dropping passes.

The irony on Saturday night was that Jones, Wilford and Williams each caught passes (Jones and Wilford scored touchdowns), while Northcutt made a drive-killing drop that arguably was the turning point of the game.

Here's a tip for the Jags. Now that you've found a quarterback, go get an accomplished receiver. Pay the money. Get a guy who can take advantage of all the attention that gets paid to the running backs.

Wow, I think the Jaguars will listen to this and think, 'Oh yeah, we do need to go out and get a receiver'.

[SteveRobWhatever]

Too bad listening will be a year too late. Nice hands Northcutt...

Northcutt has hands

[DallasArmor09]

Yea he has hands- The same hands he pulled away from the football to avoid a hit in a playoff game!!! The Jags are only going to get better- I love what this organization is doing. Get a WR and what else else you want and finally knock the Colts off there throne.

i think with one good reciever and the rapid improvement of garrard they can dethrone them its just a matter of time.

Please, please, please... Trade for Chad Johnson. I feel we can get him in a good offer seeing as he wants out of Cincy.

oh man, if you guys had 8cho 5inco it would be no bueno for the rest of the AFC south. what would ya'll have to trade though? i don't quite think he's in decline yet, so it would have to be something significant given up.

or maybe you guys should try to sign andre davis....alright alright, that was a lowblow mwahahaha....

*shiver*... I don't like you already.

Joke, you're right. If we had #85 then I don't think there'd be anymore talk about our 'poor WR corp'.

Yeah the Jags need a wideout, everthing is in place for them.
