So 3 years later, Jaylon Smith and Myles Jack are who we thought they were before medical reports torpedoed their value.

Great news for both those guys. I remember there was talk Smith may never play again and Jack obviously had a really bad injury as well. Glad to see both get paid.

Seems like a bit too much to me.  Jack wasn't that great last year, taking over full time MLB duties.  He's fine, but didn't look as good as he did in 2017 playing a swing OLB/MLB role.  Wouldn't necessarily put him among the elite of the elite among inside LBers...as this deal is basically paying him.  But i guess that's the way contracts go these days, always ratcheting up and leapfrogging the last bunch of deals.  Plus, the Jaguars really couldn't afford to let Jack walk, after already having lost Poz last year and Telvin this year, from that superb LBing corps from 2017.  Need some sort of quality and continuity at LBer, so Jack probably had all kinds of leverage in that.
