That in reality it doesnt take effect this season and teams can spend as littles as they want this year?

So why would you say the Jaguars could have extended Lewis and front loaded his deal to take up remaining cap space when you clearly have tooken it upon yourself to tell every1 else when they make a suggestion like that that they are wrong and it doesnt need to be done?

Seems like just another person being to buzy pointing out the specks in other peoples eyes instead taking care of the branch in theirs.

He had the highest ypc in the league with a significant amount of catches. He was a Pro Bowl alternate in 2009 as well. The only difference from 2009 and 2010 is the fact that he became a red zone target as opposed to Maurice Jones-Drew.

I always thought this guy would be great. Surprised it took so long for him to truly breakout, but I think he is here to stay.

Haven’t been back since. I’d like to have seen them make Lewis have back-t0-back superstar seasons before making him a superstar offer. He could have made a fortune this year and if he was doing well again, inked a deal halfway through the year.

Not just catching the football. He’s also an outstanding blocker.

Plus, the Jags have among the most cap room in the league, so they’re not spending money freely either. Wanna try that again?

We won’t have to wait too long thankfully!

Lol, what the hell are you even talking about? If you look at the top TE’s in league, and make no mistake about it, Lewis is one of the tops (I know you haven’t ever seen him play or read from coaches and teammates about his value to the team – that doesn’t stop idiots from talking though, I understand), his contract is well in line. Fair contract.
