I know you don't want to hear it but if you aren't going to pay D. Jackson top 5 CB money then you need to trade him

Jackson has been action this year, I am happy for him, he is going to get PAID as his rookie contract was second round money. Thing is, this is the PEAK value of Jackson on a team that has a surplus of CBs (Bouye, Gilmore, Horn, Henderson). You have to trade him, you can get possibly a great interior lineman for him from a CB needy team. If you aren't prepared to pay him top 5, then he his representation will get it elsewhere and then what? Another loss of a Class A asset for no return like Bradberry, Norman.

 

I like Jackson, like his speed and chip on the shoulder mentality but I am also very hesitant on contract year superstars (Mario Williams, Nnamdi Asomugha, Marcell Dareus, Byron Maxwell, Albert Haynesworth)

To who? We’ve been stacking up 1st round CBS like firewood while everyone else had the same opportunity to go and get them. Fitterer already stated multiple times that they’d like to resign Donte, and he isn’t like Rhule with the double speak. Let’s just enjoy, for a brief moment, the possibility that CB is finally a strength for the first time in years, if ever. 
 

Donte has been one of the brightest spots in the rebuild so far. He went from a know it all brat to a vocal team leader in less than two seasons. A lot of that was coaching from Snow and Rhule. We’d be crazy not to try and keep him here and Fitterer has given every indication that’s the plan.

Out of the top 10 highest paid corners, only one is under 6ft tall and that is Tre’Devious White. He is 5’11 and pushing close to 200lbs. I don’t think that is a coincidence.

I think Donte’s size will keep him from getting top 5 money. Donte will probably land in the 15 million per range which funny enough is where James Bradberry landed.

And also will land him on a different roster like Bradberry.   Fitts likes physically imposing CBs, especially on the outside.  If Henderson plays well, we have to let Donte walk so we can spend some money on fixing the offense.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
