Likely to miss 8 to finish his year suspension.  Missing less or more is unlikely.  

 

Why would the Jags release him.  The only thing keeping him would cost is a roster spot that would go to a scrub and a rookie contract.  

 

I'll take that over a guy who might only play half a season if he's reinstated.

 

Until he's reinstated, I wouldn't even give him a second thought.  If he is, and then he's released, then maybe we can talk.

 

Till then, no way, no how, nothing, nada, nay, nein, nyet.

Supposedly he is being shopped around for a 4th round pick by the Jaguars? Can anyone confirm this?

I live and work in the Jacksonville area.  I haven't heard any news of him being shopped by local sports talk, but I have heard them say repeatedly that he has most likely caught his last catch for them.  They will probably draft Watkins if Bridgewater and Clowner are off the board.

Speaking of Blackmon...

 

Suspended Jaguars receiver Justin Blackmon was involved on a single-vehicle accident early Saturday morning on Interstate 295 in Jacksonville.

The Florida Highway Patrol report said Blackmon was not injured, was wearing a seat belt and alcohol was not involved.

 

The report said Blackmon’s 2009 Denali was traveling south on I-295 when the right rear tire blew out – the car left the road and collided into a guard-rail.

The reporting officer said Blackmon’s car was facing north (it had been traveling south) when they arrived on the scene.

 

Blackmon remains under indefinitely suspension (he missed the last eight games of 2013) because of a third violation of the NFL’s policy on substance abuse.

The Jaguars weren’t aware of the accident when contacted this morning.

Before Blackmon had played in a game for the Jaguars, he had been arrested for DUI in 2010 and 2012.

Hey if the Patriots can sign Brandon steroids Browner what's the issue if we sign this guy? It's just as much a risk as signing Britt who people have been on about on here

I dont think there is a disease called Steroidism.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
