The court of public opinion is worthless. McCloughan will dig in and do the right research. He'll uncover the real truth. If he find that he's a bad guy then he won't sign him, that's the right way to do business.

But I wouldn't just say "pass" off the cuff without digging in and talking to people really in the know.

It comes down to this. Jackson didn't make the team better. That's cause we were not a player or two away. Same type of deal this year. If we were a player or two away, I'd be all in on this. But we're not there yet.

Horrendous thinking. Of course he made the team better. If we didn't have Desean do you think our offense would have even done what it managed to do last year?

Nobody's saying we're a player away, but it would be stupid to think that a 10-sack guy couldn't help the team take another step.

Our record didn't improve much last year because we have a long way to go, especially at QB. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't add talent when you can.

Have to balance it with the potential downside by doing due diligence. But with your logic it's almost like why should we sign anybody?

You've already drafted TWO guys that would play his position. Who's to say they can't have a 10 sack season? Plus how's someone like him going to act when we're having a bad season? JG seems like the type of guy that's great when you're winning, and a total nightmare when you're losing.

I think you sign guys, but not any like JG. Not for this type of team that's probably going to have a losing season that's struggling to find leadership.
