While I agree...in that case, why sign him?

because it became painfully evident to this group they don't have the folks around Young they need.  nor probably the scheme.     

Young still matters.  And Young needs a legit RB of the Cohen mold in the arsenal.  Whether Cohen still is Cohen is the unknown.  

Think it took a couple weeks of real football for our braintrust to actually realize things they should of this offseason.

If he's ready or near ready to go I'm all for it! But if he'll just be resting on the practice squad when needed he can go somewhere else lol (idk if he does scout team or anything which I know is very important)

But I agree we need to figure out a lot of positions...so many I literally just got annoyed trying to think of which holes to mention first and how we'll do it.

I completely forgot about Cohen. We’ve got a guy who hasn’t played since 2020, a guy who’s last meaningful snaps were in 2018 and we’re checking out a guy who’s coming back to football because he was caught running a Pokémon scam for millions of dollars. Damn.

Oh and before we get the it’s only practice squad, the problem is we don’t even have enough young players to fill out the PS. If Gettleman was dumpster diving, we are full on living in the dump now. We’ve trading away so many draft picks in the Fitts era that we’ve got zero depth and can’t even find enough young players with any potential to fill out the roster.

    • Sure, he's said that, but what it really means is that he's just going to insist on being a two way player and the Jags want him as such. But he won't be a starter who plays every snap on both sides in Week 1, if at all during his rookie year.  This is the NFL, no rookie, no matter how good they might be, is going to be able to go through their first mini and training camps while splitting time on both sides of the ball and be ready to be a week 1 starter and go full time both sides. And if a team does that, then they're dumb. I think their plan is to start him mainly on offense to give Lawrence another weapon, and I'm guessing it means he'll be a rotational CB early in the season, maybe he comes in when they go to nickel, even if he then plays the outside and someone else shifts inside.
    • Keep the peddle to the mettle the devils are gassed
    • YAC isn't the only way to be a threat. Thielen's ADOT was 11 yards last year. He's stressing a defense beyond its first level. Renfrow's 2023 ADOT was 5.6 yards. He's settling into a soft spot under a zone and the defense bets that they can rally and tackle before he gets to the marker. That kind of popgun slot receiver play is fine, but we should hope to be able to find that ability in someone who can also bring another skill, whether that's a vertical threat, or some jet sweep/screen game YAC  ability, or even just being very large and blocking well. Every time we trot Renfrow out there, we limit what the defense has to worry about.
