SemperFeist Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I’d be more inclined to believe the Jackson rumors if they hadn’t restructured Cousins’ contract. There’s just no logical way to clear enough cap space. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A: there’s no way it’s a move for Lamar Jackson - not with what they’ve done so far. B: Why would that hurt Jefferson’s numbers? He’s never played in this offense or had a receiver a fraction as good as Jefferson. They’d make an incredible combination, imo. It’d certainly make it harder to double/triple cover Jefferson when defenses have to leave another guy in the box. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d certainly make it harder to double/triple cover Jefferson when defenses have to leave another guy in the box. He hasn’t even thrown for over 3000 yards in three seasons. I get he’s dynamic as a runner but how sustainable is that? Of course Jackson hasn’t played with a receiver like Jefferson but I have a hard time believing much would change with his ability as a passer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been one of the most highly rated pocket passers in the league since his MVP season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just FYI 1. Oneill restructure 2. Cook trade 3. Z trade 4. Ham cut that takes cap space to around 34M, fyi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
