Fitterer 'we need really good - solid, football players - we don't need numbers of players'

Fitterers response when asked if they're looking to move up. This is basically Gettleman saying a dime is better than two nickels. You have to look at CJ as your third rounder in this draft

If we come away with 'only' the best OT in the draft + CJ - then we should all be elated

Henderson will be 24 in September .. very young, not a bust .. T10 pick very recently.

To be honest I think were about done as far as the draft is concerned and that shouldn't be a disappointment to any fan

Henderson is a Jags bust until he does something of note in a Panthers uni. That's just the reality of the use of that pick. As for whether or not we move back in for a QB if we do you are going to have to swallow your pride and move on and support the guy.

We have a fairly filled out roster besides QB and DE.  We are taking a QB today or tomorrow, 100%.  
 

OT, QB, CB (CJ) and a DE later in the draft would be very solid.  Free agency pretty much addressed everything else.  

I still see DT as a need. The guy we picked up from WAS...is he a true DT? 

I wouldnt be mad at a KR/PR, maybe a linebacker (Littleton will suffice if he gets back to his form from a couple years ago). Also wouldnt be mad at Robinson Jr. @ rb. Or another WR if we have cutting Shi in our plans. 

We just need players bro

CJ looked like ass last year.  Too early to tell if he's a bust, but the arrow is definitely pointing in that direction.

The team that drafted him cast him off after one season. He might not be a bust….but he is red flag.

The team that drafted him is also well versed in being wrong more times than not. 
 

I think it’s incredibly early to write off CJ. He will have half a year in snows system and a full offseason. He will have no excuses going into this season; but to label him a bust prior to seeing what he can do for us this year is premature.

Can probably count on one hand the number of first round picks (top 10) cast off after one season though.  It’s a giant red flag.  Jags or not.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
