I'm pretty sure Norwell is still with the Jags. I think he agreed to take a pay cut.

Yep. Like I've been saying, Norwell hasn't been bad he just hasn't lived up to that massive contract the Jags gave him. He's a good OG but he was never the type of OG you entertain making the highest paid at the position.

My blunder. He did restructure to stay on the team. Do you think that he would have gotten that reprieve if his College coach didn't get hired there?

LG pointed out he's still paid among the top 10 guard salaries.

You can think that's just because he played for Meyer during his last 2 years of college if you want. Reality though is that Norwell was never bad, just overpaid.

Ok. It was on record that Norwell was trash, which is why he went undrafted. He started doing better once he was plugged into the system we were running then and started to get his footing. He made first team All-Pro, and his name hasn't been brought up till this thread because someone asked about Trai. 

And btw, I was asking do you think that which is why it was in the form of a question. You need to get over that pompous attitude. I'm just trying to talk football.

You're doing it poorly.

This many years down the road, nobody gives a sh-t what Norwell was like in college.

You gave a bad opinion about Norwell and now you're spinning like crazy to try to justify it.

Okay, so now coach connection (Rhule brought in players from Temple, Baylor last year-Now Urban at Jacksonville), player's first years in the league(not Norwell in college-beginning of time here), and seasonal honors don't matter. Nobody's trying to spin anything. You are just arguing in a vacuum because you like Norwell more. We could've avoided all this if you had just said that when I asked why. This is a message board. It is okay if it is your basic opinion. My initial question was just to glean from your and Linville Gorge's posts if there was anything else to it. There wasn't.

    • So how about the Mondays after we lose? Because those Mondays after the Jags, Pats, and Bills games better have been run suicides until your legs fall off...
    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
